Patch day!
That's right, it's 2.4.3 time after maintnance today. I stole the patch notes from MMO Champion, but I've clipped some for note.
"Zoning into an instance on a PvE realm will now drop your PvP flag."
THANK EFFING GOD. Seriously. The ridiculousness of people showing up for raids or even 5 mans while flagged, forcing EVERYONE else to flag up in order to keep them buffed was.. ridiculous. And, as usual, leaving it up to the player to be sure they've dropped their flag before a raid or instance group was like asking my brother or sister to be dependable and earn a living on their own. This is awesomeness.
"Mounts at 30?! Yes, it’s true: Apprentice Riding and mounts are now available at level 30. Training costs 35 gold."
That pretty much speaks for itself. Nothing wrong with that at all.
I've left the rest of it behind the cut, there are all kinds of other changes and junk.. good times..
