Cataclysm Closed Beta Key Contest!Follow

Explore the new Azeroth.
Level a Goblin Rogue.
Play my Hunter with no ammo or mana XD.
Get a toon to 85.

There are quite a few things I'd love to check out in the Beta. First and foremost I want to check out how Blood is doing as the sole tanking spec in Cataclysm. Also, I'd love to check out the new Holy Power thing on my Paladin. Of course I'd like to make a Worgen and Goblin and see how Azeroth has been remade. I also want to check out resto Druids and see how the change to Tree of Life is working out. Also, Reforging sounds like an interesting concept that I would love to play around with. Overall, Cataclysm has a ton of interesting concepts and I can't wait to see them with my own eyes.

I am relatively new to WoW, started last October and leveled as a Destro Lock to 80. Really enjoyed it, but looking back it was a pain and could have been much easier if I just did what everyone does and level as Affliction. I am really looking forward to getting actual abilities and talents at level 10 that makes that class and spec feel unique.

I am looking forward to starting at level 80 with everyone else and might actually be able to raid when I hit 85 seeing as I will have somewhat comparable gear as others looking to raid, unlike now.

Looking forward to all of the changes, and of course the best part of all, old world flying!

What i'm the most Excited about in the New Expansion is the new races and all the new talent trees :)
I think this might the turning point from all the overpowered stuff that happened in WOTLK, So i think this will be the best the best expansion cause this time they seem to have balanced out everything!

Oh i just MUST make myself a Goblin Rogue to get back at all of those who are playing Gnome rogue! "Attack of the small green guys" xD

I am really looking forward to finally have more than 2 important keybinds to assign on my Holy Paladin! After so many years we are finally getting some depth! Can't wait to try it out!

There are two things that I am looking forward to with the release of Cataclysm. As with any expansion, one of the biggest bonuses is that the introduction of a new race, new leveling requirements and the standardization of gear across the board means the access to a new MAIN character. I began as a rogue through molten core through the first Naxxramas, with B.C. came my evolution as a healing priest, then I maintained my priestly ways while raiding, but I expanded my horizons to the world of the warlock which has since become one of my favorite characters. I hope to expand even further and pick up a Druid Worgen which many of my friends online have said combines some of the most incredible elements of my favorite classes and adds the tanking element which I have only done in low-end raiding.

The introduction of new lore and questing with the new class make the process of leveling a new character fun and exciting and the required leveling of everyone gives time to create a new toon and dedicate one's efforts to expanding their play before the joy and competition of raiding heats up again.

Looking forward to the new healing system the most for cataclysm. Spam healing doesn't really take that much thought, adding in the mana issue will change the game completely.

I think that the biggest things for me in Cata will be the ability to level once again as well as re-explore the zones due to the changes.

The new talents and guild perks look to make the whole experience easier and fun without watering the whole thing down too much.

And when I mean level that comes from the fact that I have a server full of 80s and haven't gained a level on any of them in almost 6 months.

The idea of playing one of the new races from lvl 1 to 85! and being in new and revamped zones will be like playing in vanilla wow once again with the awe and giddyness of a newb.

My one big hope is that they give us at least one new slot (otherwise I'm stuck with what I have) or maybe sell us slots. I know I'd buy at least one per server where I have a full load of characters. =>

I am most excited about finally being able to fly in Azeroth and being able to explore all those places up in the mountains that you could never get to but only see from flight paths. The new races. The giant swirl in the middle of the map. I think the changes to Azeroth will be pretty cool, but it's kinda sad that we won't be able to see it the way it's been for so many years.

I will test the druids and shaman to max and checkout the totally remade Orgrimmar *droool*
Im really interested in the change for Enhancement shaman where the intellect doesn't benifit the shaman anymore :P
and of course, resto druids hwo they work with the new kind of Tree Form (love to showoff gear look more :D )
And of course, the goblins are awesome, wroom wroom Car instead of a boring animal/undead animal as mount :D

I am really exited about a lot of things coming up in cataclysm, but the thing I look the most forward to, i guess would be the new guild leveling system. Me and my 11 IRL-friends have a guild in which we have very fun. To be able to level the guild as a whole group will be an awesome experience in cataclysm and togeather with 10man and 25man instances giving the same loot, I certainly beleive that my experience in our guild will greatly increase in cataclysm.

What I have looked forward to in previous expansion packs is the same thing I look forward to in Cataclysm...the midnight release race to server first cap, in this case at 85.

Secondly, it has been awhile since I have rolled alts. I already have my final 3 account slots planned for an Undead Hunter, Goblin Rogue and Worgen Warrior which will complete my roster of 1 of each class. Names have already been picked out.

Thirdly, the guild leveling system and increased guild play are a big draw for me. As my friends and I play in a small guild, I can see us having a lot of fun with this.

Last but not least, I am looking forward to enjoying the revamp of the old world which will almost make the original content come alive in a unique/different way. I believe after awhile mmo landscapes become overused, overseen and boring. This will help keep the game fresh.

Thanks for reading!
