Yeah, but IMO its part of phasing it out for the new mmo. Easy mode grouping, killing of arethas, and wtf that isnt even gunna be a 40man raid. You can tell they are getting bored by recycling old bosses (Ony, Rag) for the new content. ---

Dont forget Nefarien is being recycled too… The new MMO is still 3+ years away though, no way they can be phasing WoW out so soon. They must actually think this crap is good for the game. ---

I’m sure they won’t instaphase 5 million people off their game, but turn off the majority so they will be ready for something new and fresh when the new mmo comes out. Smart idea IMO. ---

Arthas will be before cataclysm, he will be in the next patch and i think cataclysm actually looks pretty sick. im kinda pissed kuz the big rumor was that the next expansion was gonna be the emerald dream. But whatever, ill still play it of course. > [@Treads4Heads](#): > > Yeah, but IMO its part of phasing it out for the new mmo.
