Before Burning Crusade there was the Calm Before the Storm. Now we are faced with the Echoes of Doom. I have to hand it to Blizzard busting out catchy and electrifying names for these major content patches. Patch 3.0.2 just doesn’t set my hair on end like Echoes of Doom.
The site details everything coming into patch 3.0.2 as is standard fair but doesn’t seem to be completely finished. When the pre-BC patch hit there was a lot more hype and much more in the way of naked information provided to us. It’s going to be hitting live servers on October 14th which is only in 12 days.
