Trial of the Crusader release.
We have a message from Tirion Fordring:
"Greetings, champions of Dalaran WoW!
The Argent Crusade invites you to prove your worth in the Trial of the Crusader, a battle arena where you will face some of the most challenging foes on this private server. The trial is not for the faint of heart, but those who emerge victorious will earn not only the respect and admiration of their peers, but also powerful weapons and armor that will aid them in their quests to vanquish evil.
But the Trial of the Crusader is more than just a test of skill and strength. The fate of our world hangs in the balance, and we need the bravest and most skilled among us to join us in this epic battle. Together, we can strike a mighty blow against the forces of darkness and usher in a new era of peace and prosperity for Dalaran WoW and beyond.
For the Light! For Dalaran WoW! For Azeroth!"
The Trial of the Crusader raid (every difficulty on their pre-nerf status) and Trial of the Champion dungeon are going to be opened today at 18:30 Server Time. Each player will need to have completed Ulduar in normal mode in order to be qualified to enter ToC, which means you need to have achieved "The Secrets of Ulduar (10 players)" or "The Secrets of Ulduar (25 players)".
Since the raids are cross-faction, for those raids that have different faction members, there will be two loots. Horde players can loot items for the Horde, and Alliance players can loot items for the Alliance. This means the master looter has to be passed accordingly to a player from the opposite faction. To avoid overgearing, the loot has been reduced by one piece per faction. ToC raid will not be resettable for now.
Koralon, The Flame Watcher will become available within the Vault of Archavon on next Friday, April 14th.
Please note that in order to be entitled to loot the new Triumph emblems, the Keepers of Ulduar personal achievement will also be required. Onyxia's Lair will be available approximately one month after the release of ToC, and we will announce more information about this and the Scarab Lord when the time comes.
This new patch will also contain epic gems, cuts and recipes, the new tier sets, and new PvP gear. The Vault of Eras will be available before the Icecrown Citadel patch. We will make an informative post about how it works and how you can retrieve your gear through it.
Thank you very much.
