Just when you thought it was safe to blog...

MMO Champion puts out new info on the PTR.

I mentioned before that I thought it would be neat to have a teleporter out in K3.

Dimensional Folder: K3 - Step through an ultra-safe dimensional fold to teleport to K3 in Northrend.


Woot!

Other fun things:

Jeeves - Requests the presence of Jeeves, the perfect gentleman robot butler, whom will attend to your needs for 10 min. Jeeves can grant bank access to very skilled engineers and perform mundane tasks such as buying, selling, and repairing for anyone.

Mind Amplification Dish - Dismantle and reassembles a helm with a mind amplification dish, allowing you to attempt to engage in mental battle with your enemies and, hopefully, control them. Can be used every 10 min. Changes the appearance of your helm and binds it to you. Only grand master engineers can activate the mind amplification dish.

A Steam-Powered Auctioneer has been added to the Dalaran Like Clockwork engineering shop, allowing access to one's faction Auction House. The Steam-Powered Auctioneer was programmed with a superiority chip, and will only interact with Grand Master engineers.


I hope this means that Engineers will start feeling the love.

Item Buy Back Feature Revised

* The Item Buy Back time will now expire if the player enchants or sockets an item. Players will see a confirmation dialog box now when they attempt to enchant or add gems to an item giving them a last chance to reconsider.


This kinda makes me sad. Sometimes, my maths need be moar gudder, and I can't really get a feel for an upgrade until it has the bells and whistles. Oh well. At least they aren't removing the buyback feature entirely.

New Dungeon Loot Feature

* Players will now be able to trade soulbound items with other raid or group members that were eligible for the loot. This system will work like the Item Buy Back system and allow 2 hours for players to trade an item after it has been looted. Players who choose to enchant or add gems to the item will get one last confirmation before losing the ability to trade the item.


I know this info has been floating around for a few days but thought I'd add it here. Apparently, my guild isn't the only guild that has this issue. I thought for sure we would get a GM online to tell us we used up our "oops" tokens and they would cut us off.

The latest builds also added many tweaks to classes and their glyphs. There are too many to put here, so go here for more information.
