4.3: Darkmoon Faire Preview Guide

Live Posted 2011/11/06 at 12:41 PM by perculia

The replica Dungeon Tier items we found several weeks ago made it to the PTR! This means you can transmogrify your armor into Dungeon Set 0 and .5 tier from vanilla (and without class restrictions too!). These sets had been removed in Cataclysm and were currently unobtainable on live.

Numerous new mounts and pets to purchase.

A large-scale PvP arena bloodbath.

New quests associated with mini-games as well as professions: this will grant Darkmoon Prize Ticket which can be used to purchase vanity items and transmogrification gear.

A petting zoo!
