[Xel]

Pre-Cataclysm effects on patch 3.3

Looks like Cataclysm is already starting to affect in the Azeroth

Wolfs in low human starting zone have changed texturing and are now diseased


The quest has also changed:



You need to collect Diseased Wolf Pelts instead of Wolf Meat:


There are earthquakes all over the Azeroth, Outlands and Northrend.

They're caused by these event NPCs called "[DND] Shakers"
Here is a proof:

What wut wat nice +Rep

What's this [DND] Shaker @_@

[Gripen2]

Havn't all these already been posted. Just without screens.

[Reflection]

nice, was some old post about this but it wasn't as clear.

[Finalwish]

Why would they put them in Outland, unless Deathwings head bangs are just so epicly big they effect distant worlds.

[TheCircle]

Doubt those [DND] Shakers are meant to be attack able, or even target able. There's stuff like those all over the game.

[TheZaronz]

[DND] Icecrown Airship Cannon Explosion Bunny and [DND] Shakers or anything like this in general is not meant to be attackable it's just triggers that could cause things as visual effects, Blizzard made them invisible btu I don't know why they didn't make them untargetable. But it's of course not like they're just waiting for somebody to kill them.

Very nice discovery bro, I don't see why they would randomly make the wolves Diseased, but I understand the whole Earthquake thing.

Imo, they should've done this in durotar, because of teh news that orgrimmar is gonna be possibly reinforced due to destruction or something.

[TheZaronz]

We'll just have to wait and see But it's a nice start for a transform, like it all couldn't happen over one hour.

[Zing!]

They're untargetable on live. They were just visible and targetable for a while on the PTR.

I'll never forget the WotLK event, I made a zombie raid on SW and charged into the chapel. For some reason a load of NPC zombies and a big Elite Zombie spawned while we were in there, we then proceeded to charge through SW into the trade district and infected the place.

[Shobek]

WTB a Wotlk equivalent event for Cataclysm, imma cry if they don't.. That shit was so funnnnnn.

[Laserous]

What addon are you using to show hidden event triggers?

The Cataclysm is going to happen just north of Stormwind (that bit of unused territory is where Deathwing comes out from). I think it makes sense for the Stormwind area to get some changes. Though, Blizzard did mention that they're happy with Elwynn as a levelling zone and don't want to change it much so who knows how they're gonna justify all of this.

Sorry to burst a bubble on your lore, but Deathwing will be coming from Grim Batol in Wetlands. Causing wetlands to change an assload during cata.

Yes and the area above Stormwind is the new PvP Area.
