As many of you are aware there was an issue which allowed players to reach unexpectedly high Match Making Values. While that issue has since been resolved, we're taking steps to control what occurred while it was active.
  • All existing items requiring 2200 rating will have their minimum level requirement temporarily increased to make those items unusable. This change is currently planned to be reverted on January 25.
  • Weapons which require a 2200 rating will be unavailable for purchase. This limitation is also planned for reversion on January 25.
  • All player and team ratings for arenas will be reduced to a maximum of 1500. (Player, team and matchmaking ratings below 1500 will not be affected)
  • Match Making Values for all players will be set to 1500.

In addition, the "best week rating" will be reduced to a maximum of 1500 to match the rating change, which will in turn be used to determine next week's max weekly Conquest Points. The maximum Conquest Points given for next week will be set to 1343 to match the number that would be obtainable with a rating of 1500.

I should make a comment about QA, but what would be the point (or the novelty value for that matter).

Breaking all of my wretched dolls
Fingernails they scratch outside
In the attic is where I'll hide

It seems to imply that those people WILL be able to use their weapons again on the 25th? wth?

I, on the other hand, prefer a command-line system 'cause i'm so hardcore
/north /north *You encounter an [Avatar of the god Set]!*
/cast sheild *sheild spell unavailable*
/csat shield *csat: unknown command*
*[Avatar of Set] beheads [Peasant]*

After playing this expac at 85, I have to agree with you Spooky. The team that did this expac and its mechanics changes are 180 degrees different from the one that did WOTLK.

Their mistakes are so childish (like the change to mana tide totems stacking) it is silly. I am not even a decent "armchair dev" and I could see the problem with that example immediately after reading about it....
