World of Warcraft players who are awaiting the release of patch 2.4 will be glad to know that Blizzard has opened a new page over at the game's official website dedicated to the said patch, titled "Fury of the Sunwell."
This is good news in two ways: first, it is needless to elaborate that opening such as page could only mean that the release of patch 2.4 is very near. Secondly, this gives us a glimpse of things to come aside from the info picked up from the public test realm.
If you refer to our source link below, it would take you to the official page mentioned above. But to help you guys get started, below are some of the noteworthy features slated for patch 2.4:
- Sunwell Isle
- With the next patch, the Sunwell Isle will be available for play.
- This area includes a new quest hub and 5-player and 25-player instances.
- Join the Shattered Sun Offensive in shutting down Kael'thas' nefarious operations. This new force is comprised by both the Aldor and Scryers and is led by the naaru.
- Players will take part in claiming Sun's Reach and setting up a larger base of operations to stop Kael'thas and the Legion.
- New Daily Quests
- The combined forces of Shattrath have launched an attack on the Isle of Quel'Danas, to confront Kael'thas and the Legion at the Sunwell and surrounding areas.
- Players will be able to gain reputation with the Shattered Sun Offensive and participate in a new set of daily quests, including new daily dungeon quests for both the heroic and non-heroic five-person Magisters' Terrace dungeon at the Sunwell.
- And last but not least, this update will increase the daily quest limit to 25.
- Global Arena Tournament
- Players will now be able to create level-70 characters with epic equipment on special tournament realms and compete in a new global arena tournament.
- UI Improvements
- The combat log has undergone improvements that allow more robust combat text filtering including the ability to define custom colors for enemies and friends, as well as combat text filtering for self and others.
