Wowhead Scheduled Maintenance: Tuesday, Aug 31, 10pm-11pm Pacific Time
Just so it doesn't catch you all by surprise, we have a scheduled maintenance coming up next Tuesday!
We're going to be bringing the site down for maintenance
Tuesday, August 31st, from 10pm to 11pm Pacific Time
. Apparently this is the lowest traffic point for the site on a weekly basis (I wonder why? That's about when
I
log on...), so it seemed like the best place to squeeze it in.
Don't worry! We'll be back up in a jiffy to make sure you guys have access. :)

Cataclysm Spell Updates: Armor Specializations and New Talent Calculator Interface
So not only do we have a ton of spell and talent updates for you (including the new
armor specializations
, we've also updated the appearance of the
talent calculator
to match the in-game interface—right down to the shiny glow effect on the specialization selector!
The new talent calculator interface features icons for the class roles (both on the spec selector and across the header), icons to let you know which trees are still locked and which are available, and more. We've also got a full list of the new skills available, including a complete list of the new
armor specializations

ZAM's TERA Online Site Live
I don't know how many of you follow other MMOs—I know that I can't imagine really playing more than one at a time. But there are two coming up in the near future that I'm actually really excited about—BioWare's
The Old Republic
, and
TERA Online
.
TERA is exciting to me, partially because of the art style but mostly because of the gameplay. It's calling itself an "Action RPG", which in practical terms means that it deals with the most basic interface problem in all MMOs—the fact that most basic combat just involves standing still and deciding what order to push your buttons in. In TERA you actually have to
move out of the way
when people shoot at you. If you're firing a bow, you actually need to
hit
your target. The combat has sort of a next-generation
Secret of Mana
feel to it.
So this seems like a perfect time, then, to point out that ZAM has their
TERA site
up! If you're interested in following news about this game as well, or in following/updating our wiki, come and take a look!

New Talent Calculator Interface
We've updated our
Cataclysm Talent Calculator
to accommodate the new in-game interface!
Now, when you load up the talent calc, you'll be taken automatically to a screen like the one at the right here. This gives you the run-down of the individual talent trees (the same one you get in the in-game interface), as well as letting you "choose a specialization". Just like in-game, choosing a specialization will lock you into that tree until you've spent 31 points there.
There are still a few bugs to work out
, and a few problems with Blizzard's data, but we figured you'd want the chance to play with it while we're working out the kinks. Don't forget you can use the button in the bottom right to switch between the "talent tree" view and the "summary" view!
If you're curious about the changes to the new Cataclysm talent system, we ran them all down in a
previous blog
, but here's the gist of it:
Talent trees have shrunk. They're now only seven tiers deep. You still need 5 points to move to the next tier, but (so far) no talent has a maximum of more than three.
