Список изменений тестируемого патча 3.2.0 к World of Warcraft был обновлён в 3-й раз. Самое приятное из описанных новшеств - "демонтаж" огненных стен на Арене Доблести (Ring of Valor).

О прочих нововведениях патча на английском языке читайте ниже. Официальный перевод последних поправок ещё не подоспел, поэтому сейчас можно довольствоваться только устаревшим русским описанием апдейта (от 7-го июля).

Изменения патча 3.2.0 PTR от 16.07.09   PvP

  • Arenas
    • Ring of Valor
      • The flame wall has been removed.
    • Ruins of Lordaeron
      • Two line-of-sight tombstones have been added to the slime pool on the southern side of the map.
  • Wintergrasp
    • Against the Odds: This achievement has been removed and converted to a Feat of Strength.
Raids and Dungeons

  • Ulduar
    • An Immortal Guardian targeted for Empowering Shadows in the Yogg-Saron encounter will now become a ''Marked Immortal Guardian'' while targeted.
    • Crusher Tentacles in the Yogg-Saron encounter spawn a little slower in 25-player mode allowing a bit more time for players to clear out the Illusion room.
    • Empowering Shadows in the Yogg-Saron encounter now targets a maximum of three Immortal Guardians in 25-player mode.
    • Yogg-Saron''s health has been reduced by 20% in the final stage of his 25-player mode.
Items: General

  • Items with Triggered Effects: These items generally have cooldowns on how often they can be triggered. Those cooldowns are now triggered each time the item is equipped (example: A trinket has a 45-second cooldown on an effect triggered by player attacks; when a player equips that item, the effect will be unable to be triggered for the first 45 seconds it is worn).
Paladin

  • Crusader Aura: This ability now also grants its flying speed increase to a druid’s Flight Form and Swift Flight Form.
Shaman

  • A customizable totem bar will now be available for shamans allowing the storing of 4 different totems. These totems can be placed on the ground at once in one global cooldown for the combined mana cost of all 4 totems. The naming scheme of the spells to summon the different totem sets has been changed to make it less confusing for players:
    • Call of Fire (Totem Bar 1, the first one gained at level 30) is now named Call of the Elements.
    • Call of Water (Totem Bar 2) is now named Call of the Ancestors.
    • Call of Fire (Totem Bar 3) is now named Call of the Spirits.
    • Call of Earth (the spell to recall all summoned totems) is now named Totemic Recall.
Warlock

  • Talents
    • Destruction
      • Improved Shadow Bolt: Redesigned slightly. Instead of a 100% chance to apply a 1/2/3/4/5% critical strike increase on the target, it now has a 20/40/60/80/100% chance to apply a 5% critical strike increase.
Warrior

  • Talents
    • Protection
      • Devastate: Weapon damage and bonus per Sunder Armor on the target increased by 100%.
