WoW’s Big 2-0: Collector’s Edition Drops
Blizzard just rolled out the red carpet for WoW’s 20th with a pre-purchase for the The War Within 20th Anniversary Collector’s Edition. This bad boy is stuffed with treats, like a swanky art book, a pin set for your battle vest, and a Gryphon Rider statue that’s straight-up awesome.
Inside the box, you also get perks like a Level 70 boost (bye-bye, grind!) and Trader’s Tender to flash at the in-game market. If you’ve already thrown down cash on The War Within, no sweat—Blizzard’s got you with a Battle.net balance to keep the party going.
Fresh Digs and Dungeon Crawls
New hangouts alert! The Isle of Dorn and dungeons like Cinderbrew Meadery are where it’s at. Pro tip from the devs: start fresh with a new template character to sidestep any weird bugs. And yeah, the level cap is now 73—so get leveling!
Loot Alert: New Heirloom Bling
Heads up, treasure hunters! Anshlun’s got the scoop on a shiny new heirloom ring—the Band of Radiant Echoes. Snag it in the pre-expansion event or at Khaz Algar. It’s part of a set that’s like an energy drink for your XP and regen.
Crafting this jewel takes a bit of legwork, gathering up essences from all over to make the Lifeless Stone Ring shine. It’s like collecting memories and turning them into pure gold.
