More on Wrath of the Lich King from Kaplan, Didier

Posted Aug 28, 2007 at 10:01AM by Karl B. Listed in: Titles, News Tags: Blizzard, Jeffrey Kaplan

CVG recently scored an interview with Blizzard's Jeffrey Kaplan and Sam Didier. Both gave out some pretty juicy bits of info about Wrath of the Lich King, the second expansion for World of Warcraft.

While the spotlight is currently on the Death Knight Hero class, the base classes in WoW will also be getting another set of spells and abilities as well as talent points.

The new expansion will also bring its own share of new instances. Kaplan revealed that Blizzard will begin progression in the ten-person raid game for players.

Those looking for a bigger raid can also look forward to 25-person raids and the heroic dungeons. According to Kaplan, the raids will be bigger, "meaning more like Naxxramas with lots of bosses rather than the smaller ones like Tempest Keep."

WoW players who prefer to do quests by themselves will also get more daily quests and end-game content. To lessen the repetitiveness of the daily quests, Blizzard is also working on implementing randomization. PvP fans, on the other hand, will also get more incentive in the form of a new arena as well as new arena rewards.
