Список изменений патча 5.2 PTR от 30 января

На тестовый сервер патча 5.2 к MMORPG World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria был установлен очередной билд, сообщает компания Blizzard Entertainment. К наиболее интересным изменениям можно отнести следующие:

- Для того, чтобы группы в системе поиска рейдов распадались реже, вводится новая система. Каждый раз при вайпе такой группы в бою с боссом все игроки получают суммирующийся бафф, увеличивающий на 5% здоровье, наносимый урон и лечение (до максимального количества в 10 стаков). Бафф снимается после убийства босса.
- Хранитель истории Чо предлагает две новых истории – «Dagger in the Dark» и «A Little Patience». Теперь игроки и Орды, и Альянса смогут пройти их обе через систему поиска подземелий. Ранее эти сценарии были фракционными.
- Персонажи получившие титулы вроде Centurion, Knight-Champion, Grand Marshal, High Warlord и им подобные через систему рейтинговых полей боя смогут приобрести старые PvP-предметы, для ношения которых требуются такие титулы.
