Hiring

  • Emblem transfer now includes tbc badges.

World Buffs

  • [CHANGE] Various World Buffs have been adjusted down.

Individual Progression Changes in this Repack:

  • [FIX] Firstly, there are number of fixes to Naxx40 that are not necessarily present in the stock individual progression module. Additional changes include ZG being available whenever you complete The Hand of Rastakhan questline, Gruul being the required kill to progress past Tier 4 content, and ZA being available directly after SSC/TK. The ZA and ZG reshuffle comes as a result of the fact that catch up raids are completely irrelevant in the singleplayer environment and seriously deincentivizes content. Gruul being the requirement is simply just laziness on my part due to the fact that you can complete Kara at 60 and I didn't want players progressing to T5 directly at level 60.
  • [PVE] Also the badge system has been broken up into 3 different badges for tbc for each raid tier so that players aren't skipping ahead on power creep.
