WOW Lich King Beta Key (SPOILERS Contained) You have been warned

So ya I learned something, sometimes when blizz sends you emails they aren't always junk mail. I got real lucky and was able to win one of the lich king beta keys, I will be copying over both my warlock and Spriest 70s to their test server. I guess I can also make all the death knights I want, but I more interested in seeing how my toons handle in the new areas. Anyway I'm just about done with the installs and will keep you all informed. Don't worry I will post lots of screen shots and report any cool findings (if we can set up a spoiler sections that would be great).

Well till then

Don't blame me if the heals suck you're the one who said the shadow priest had to heal.

barbershop info please! Baseball's face tattoos -- or, if that's not possible, at least her terrible hair HAVE TO GO! =)

Also, I'm not sure what graphical tweaks Blizzard has made, but I'm assuming they're more "ooh pretty" than "now you run better." Can you comment on any noticeable slowdown the beta has on your machine vs TBC?

[edit] for typos.

He probably can't comment on anything. In fact, he could be breaking the NDA by merely saying he's received a beta key.

There is no NDA. It was lifted at the end of Alpha.

So far I haven't gotten to play to much since every night when I get home the server shuts down for one reason or another. But here is a bit so far. The new harbor in SW is huge. It's easily the size of any 2 of the other sections of the city combined. Northrend is rather pretty graphically and I haven't seen any real lag on my comp that is any different then in Shat. Keep in mind that the beta isn't overly crowded and like shatt and I'm running a 3gig dual core with 3 gig ram and a 512 vid card, so it take quite a bit to lag my system.

They currently are show casters love with TONS of haste the first 2 items I got they had about 260 to spell haste and one was a trinket that had a large haste proc on it. I don't know if this will stay in the game but when my talents and trinkets proc my cast extremely short. Sbolts in like .6-.8sec thats all for now I will try and get some screen shots and what not on.

Don't blame me if the heals suck you're the one who said the shadow priest had to heal.
