System to replace sold, disenchanted items
For those who have accidentally sold or disenchanted that tier gear, Blizzard has announced an alternative to waiting in line in a ticket queue.Called the Self-Service Item Restoration Service, this allows players with a good account standing to submit a web form via Battle.Net. For most types of restorations, the item will be returned via in-game mail immediately. For items accidentally disenchanted, the form will flag the item for review by Customer Support. Players should still use care with their items, says Blizzard, as the new service may only be used once every 30 days. Blizzard has released more information on the Battle.net Item Restoration FAQ. |

Patch 4.3.2 Notes Updated
09.02.2012
Correction eliminates Raid Finder loot duplicates
So you go into the raid finder. After about 45 minutes of wiping the floor with the bosses, two tier shoulder tokens drop. So you roll on both to double your chances. Next thing you know, you have two in your bags, and the last druid already left town.Soon after the raid finder was released, Blizzard implemented a need bonus to loot rolls based upon role. This allowed players who needed the gear most to have a higher roll than that healer who really wants DPS gear. Today, Kaivax announced via Twitter that there was an update to the Patch 4.3.2 notes correcting a situation where a player would obtain duplicates of the same item. Below, we have quoted the change as found on the World of Warcraft Community site: Players no longer benefit from a role-based need bonus on the second of multiple copies of the same item on a single Raid Finder boss kill. For example, a player who chooses Need on two set piece tokens or two weapons (and wins the first) will only automatically roll 1-100 for the second from that particular boss. |

BlizzCon 2012 Cancelled
28.01.2012
Annual conference suspended until 2013
 For five years, Blizzard has held an annual conference celebrating the achievements of the company and highlighting releases for Diablo, World of Warcraft and Starcraft. Held at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim CA, attendees were awed by announcements of future releases, a gallery of the history of Blizzard, live events, and famous performers. Last year's conference featured the Foo Fighters and revealed the Mists of Pandria expansion for World of Warcraft. Wednesday, Blizzard posted on the BlizzCon Official Site that there will be no BlizzCon in 2012. Bashiok confirms
Bashiok confirmed the reports with his own personal statement on the World of Warcraft Community Forums: "Yeah it's a bit disappointing because we all really do enjoy being able to 'open the doors' so to speak. But, it is an enormous effort by all employees, including our game designers and artists, not to mention customer support and quality assurance, PR, our business departments, and hot breath on fingernails & shirt rub Community & eSports to make a BlizzCon happen. In a year when we're working to release multiple titles (knock on wood) it makes sense to focus our efforts. Also with multiple game releases we just wonder if we'd be at a point with any of them where we'd have anything really big or new or cool to talk about.We didn't have a BlizzCon in 2006 either, and at that time we were really strong on the idea that BlizzCon isn't really supposed to be and doesn't have to be an annual event. Of course then we have it for five straight years in a row... which obviously built some expectation. Personally I always enjoy seeing the excitement, the rushing crowds, hearing the clicking of mice on the demo stations, and waiting in agony as the seconds countdown to an announcement and then the waves of emotion from the crowd that follow it. But thinking about our year and what we're trying to get done already without a BlizzCon, and having to think pretty hard about what we'd have to announce or demo, it just makes sense to me not to have one. Here's to the Battle.net World Championship, it's going to be awesome, and to a bigger and better BlizzCon in 2013." |

Blizzard Sells Server Blades for Charity
24.01.2012
Former EU servers being auctioned for St. Jude's
 Recently, all World of Warcraft servers saw hardware upgrades to improve player performance. So what happens to all that old hardware? Today, Blizzard released that it is auctioning server blades and donating the proceeds to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.Quoting Blizzard's official press release: For a time, these servers were doorways into a universe of magic, mystery, and unlimited adventure. People vanquished mighty foes, they formed bonds of friendship, and some even found love in the game worlds that ran on these servers. If you listen closely on a starry night, you can still hear the ghosts of the past running through their circuit boards, recounting tales of epic conquest. What is being auctioned?
Being auctioned are the HP p-Class server blades. For those who are unfamiliar with a server blade, it is literally a self-contained server, which collectively fits into an enclosure with other blades. For this round, Blizzard is auctioning it's former EU servers.
Who is St. Jude?
 St. Jude Children's Research Hospital®, founded by the late entertainer Danny Thomas, is one of the world's premier centers for the research and treatment of pediatric cancer and other catastrophic childhood diseases. St. Jude is the first and only pediatric cancer center to be designated as a Comprehensive Cancer Center by the National Cancer Institute. Children from all 50 states and from around the world have come through the doors of St. Jude for treatment, and thousands more around the world have benefited from the research conducted at St. Jude — research that is shared freely with the global medical community. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatments that are not covered by insurance and St. Jude covers the cost for food, travel and lodging for patients and a family member.Working together under one roof, their physicians and scientists have pioneered treatments that have helped push the overall survival rates for childhood cancers from less than 20 percent when the hospital opened in 1962 to 80 percent today. The survival rate for the most common form of childhood cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, has risen from just 4 percent in 1962 to 94 percent today. Where is the bidding?
The auctions are live on Ebay and bids can be placed here. The auction will run until January 30. |
