For those who didn't get to live the early parts of Cataclysm, the toy Simulation de viseur méga-précis de Torsaclef, that costs 0 Insigne distordu dans le temps, simulates Deathwing flying over you and burning everything on his path! This does not award you with Fallait pas rester dans les flammes.

Every 2 to 3 hours, Elementals would start attacking the cities. As they were level 80 mobs, low levelled characters were forced to leave town, while level 80s would have to place Barricades and Sac de sables around the cities. After that, they would have to free citizens and close rifts around town.

If you were successful in defending your town, you'ld gain access to a rift to the hideout of the elemental lord responsible for the attack. Each element had a different elemental lord responsible, all these being empowered versions of known elementals:
Prince Sarsarun, the Herald of Al'Akir, is the responsible for the air elemental attacks, and is hiding in Ahn'Qiraj. He is modeled after Prince Tonneraan, who has been killed during the Lame-tonnerre, épée bénie du Cherchevent quest chain, and is revived during the Shaman Class Hall Campaign.

It's worth noting that Kai'ju Gahz'rilla may not the same as the boss in the Zul'Farrak dungeon. The dungeon version is refered to as a male during the quest Mission impossible ? ("kill Gahz'rilla for one of his scales"), while Hydromancienne Kulratha, Kai'ju Gahz'rilla's guardian, mentions it as a female ("She will reduce them to frozen rubble!").

New Dungeon - Zul'Aman: The stronghold of Zul'Aman in the Les terres Fantômes is finally open! Furious at the Horde for allowing his mortal enemies, the Blood Elves, to join their ranks, Zul'jin embraced Seigneur des maléfices Malacrass's plan to seal the power of the animal gods within the Amani's strongest warriors. Now Zul'Aman grows stronger each day, fueled by Zul'jin's desire for vengeance.This 10-man raid featured 6 bosses and a challenging timed run mode. Groups skilled enough to finish this challenge within the time alloted were awarded by the, to this day, very elusive Ours de guerre amani. This mount was made unobtainable on Patch 3.0.

Zul'Aman was since reworked as a 5-man dungeon during Cataclysm, together with Zul’Gurub. The timed speedrun is also back with it's dungeon version, and awards the mount Ours de bataille amani. Zul'jin hasn't returned as a final boss for the dungeon version, being replaced by Daakara.

Guild Banks:

Guild banks are also useful to bypass the gold cap on transfers. Guild banks can store up to a total of 1 copper before 10 million gold, and you can transfer that all at once when you transfer a guild. Be mindful that you need to be the Guild Master of the guild for at least a week before you can transfer the guild.

Blizzard

In preparation for the upcoming retail launch of World of Warcraft, we will be taking the North American open beta servers offline on Thursday, November 18. While this will mark the end of the open beta test, there will still be some work left for us to do. To provide the best experience possible at launch, we will be making numerous final optimizations to our hardware based on the data we've acquired during the open beta test.
During our closed and open beta test phases, thousands of improvements were made to World of Warcraft. Those changes were made through game-client patches and updates to the game's server and database infrastructure.

As we moved closer to retail, we continued to make changes and optimize all of the code that makes up World of Warcraft until we reached the point where we felt we could create a gold master -- the version of the game that's currently being pressed onto the discs which will be available for purchase at retail.

Likewise, these processes must also take place on the server side to ensure that no out-of-date code, which could corrupt the retail version of the game, still exists. Before the retail version of the code can be installed, the current hardware must be wiped clean. This also includes the information on current accounts and characters that are being played on our test servers. So that all World of Warcraft players will be able to make a fresh start on our community site at launch, the same procedure will be taking place for the North American beta forums when the open beta test ends.

We realize that you've grown attached to your characters, and we're sorry that the end of the open beta test will require you to part ways with them. However, with the retail launch of World of Warcraft on November 23 comes the opportunity to begin a new adventure in Azeroth on fresh, untouched servers. Along with that, you'll have the knowledge that you played an instrumental role in the creation of a game of epic proportions that players will enjoy for many years to come.

We greatly appreciate all the time you've spent with us testing World of Warcraft, and we look forward to seeing you in-game!

Please note that this does not affect the ongoing European closed beta test. Further details regarding our plans for the closed and final beta tests in Europe will be announced on the European community sites next week.
