There of course is the typical bug fixes, UI improvements and other various small issues resolved, but this is a huge content patch! Some of the best content in the game is available in the game now, here's a quick rundown of some of the new content:

  • Magister's Tower, a new 5-man instance tuned for level 70 players with heroic and non-heroic modes with the final boss being Kael'thas Sunstrider, the King of the Blood Elves!
  • Sunwell Plateau, a new 25-man raid dungeon tuned for players who have completed the current raid content in the game (Mount Hyjal and Black Temple) this will wrap up the story of Burning Crusade with a final show down with the demon Kil'jaeden.
  • All new badge loot available from the Shatterd Sun Offensive with item levels close to Black Temple/Mount Hyjal quality gear.
