The latest PTR build showed very few changes, mostly spell changes, this might be a good sign that fine tuning is taking place and a live release may be soon. Below are the DK changes and some updated tier 8 pics via MMOC.

New Site?

This may be a bit premature in even posting about, but keep an eye out on a new site I have in the works. Like the community we have formed here at DKinfo? Well the idea behind the new site will be a community driven site like our forums here, only with the entire WoW community in mind. That’s all I can really say right now. My crazy schedule as of late is slowing everything down, but hopefully I will have more news on it soon.

  • del.icio.us
  • StumbleUpon
  • Yahoo! Buzz
