It’s been a real problem for the past week or so, and probably will be for another few weeks. I’ve been telling people as often as possible to just take this time to mellow out and get your fix by other means since the game is currently in a very plasmid state. Darshnar is a [...]

The frustration is still building. With good reason I might add. Let’s look at the latest skirmish with this play by play.
Forum Troll: Stop milking the cow Blizzard! Give us a date, or to hell with you!
Nethaera: It’s never nice to curse people. Information will be given at the appropriate time, not before. Yes, [...]

There are tons of leaked items on the PTR files that WOWDB has managed to snag. There have been mishaps left and right of GMs giving out season 4 gear instead of Season 1 to players around the world. So when exactly will we be seeing the 4th and final Arena season for the Burning [...]

Well it’s a story that won’t die folks. That’s a good thing too because if not then we wouldn’t get to see the pretty now would we?
In response to all the hype about the Season 4 gear sported by a certain druid, more screenshots and information has been released. I’d like to thank Teza one [...]

It seems they still haven’t worked out the kinks yet and GMs are still giving season 4 brutal gladiator gear instead of season 1 equipment as restorations. Either that or these screenshots are trickling in later when the player in question was worried about retribution on part by Blizzard.
Anyway you look at it we still [...]

There’s a pretty big argument going on that the face of PVP has been changed forever and I agree. I posted about it much earlier but here are some more details reitterated for the sake of anybody who might have missed it. I like my PVP, I like world PVP and fighting in the battlegrounds. [...]

Yes, the Season 3 honor items will still be available for purchase without a rating requirement after Season 4 starts.
There will be two sets of “non-set” items once Season 4 begins. The Season 4 honor items (boot/belt/bracer/etc) some of which will require a rating, and the Season 3 items (boot/belt/bracer/etc) which still won’t require [...]

A player on the Arathor realm (EU) accidentally deleted s1 items, and a GM gave him back by mistake 2 parts of the S4 priest Brutal Gladiator set (chest and head), thus he activated the ids for these 2 items. I’m pretty sure that GM got fired for this. Thanks to Teza for this update.

I’m trying to keep people updated is all. The realms are online and a lot of people are creating their characters and logging in right now. (src)
As for season 4 starting soon…
We still intend to provide at least a two week notice before the start of a new season. We have not made that [...]

Drysc posted in the official forums what would happen when season 4 starts. (src)
There will be no changes to gear availability/rating requirement until Season 4 starts, which will not begin when patch 2.4 goes live.
When Season 4 starts here’s what will happen:
• Season 1 removed
• Season 2 moved to honor
• Season 3 rating requirements [...]

Thanks to mmo-champions for the high resolution images.
Currently we have only seen the retribution paladin set and the 2H sword from arena season 4. But it seems that Blizzard is already starting to tweak the gear some so that it feels more in line with the others (that they have yet to release and what [...]

Drysc just wanted to confirm once more what’s going on with the Arena seasons as rumors are always spreading with the activation of arena season 4 gear (art assets and item tags) on the PTR.
Q u o t e:
The next patch is scheduled in April but not an exact date yet.

We’ve never announced or mentioned [...]

Now let me start by saying that this is not a confirmation of the start date. Season 4 can still be delayed until whenever, however. Drysc hit the forums today and alluded to the fact that arena seasons are released pretty much hand in hand with PVE gear progression.
Seasons have and will likely continue [...]

Don’t freak out, there’s no official word from Blizzard regarding Season 4 starting with the release of Patch 2.4 but it is being speculated. Otherwise why would these by on the PTR files?
Brutal Galdiator’s Battlegear (Warrior)

Druid Resto, Balance, and Feral breastplates.
   
Holy Paladin breastplate.

    It’s not really confirmed when season 4 will begin, but presumably it will be a little after patch 2.4 goes live and people start seeing gear from the new 25 man Sunwell raid. Bornakk pretty plainly says that when season 4 begins, the season 2 “merciless” gear is going to drop off the vendor [...]
