Blizzard Entertainment has released a new client patch for fans of its popular MMORPG, World of Warcraft. Adding a new raid instance (Secrets of Ulduar), the patch contains the usual mile-long list of changes and enhancements. A breakdown of the most important changes occurring in World of Warcraft for Mac (after installing Patch 3.1) can be found below.

General:
• All Ground Mounts may now swim without dismounting the rider. Flying Mounts still may NOT, and will dismount the rider upon entering water.
• Ulduar is now available for limited testing.
• Players at maximum level will now be able to visit their trainer to pay a one-time fee and access the dual talent specialization feature.
• A new Gear Manager feature has been added. Players will now be able to save gear sets for easy gear switching.

Battlegrounds:
• Players will now be able to queue for battlegrounds from any location.
• Seaforium Barrels can now be looted while mounted, seen from anywhere in the zone, and found at the Central Graveyard.
• Teleporters can now be used while mounted and can now be seen from anywhere in the zone.

User Interface:
• New Advanced features for quest tracking are now available. Players will need to activate this option within the Interface panel.
• A new Color Blind option is available under the Interface panel.


Blizzard Entertainment also notes on its website that it would like to dedicate Secrets of Ulduar in memory of Dave Arneson, the person who was pretty much responsible for all that Dungeons & Dragons stands for.

“We were greatly saddened by the news of Dave’s passing,” Blizzard Entertainment states on the WoW site. “His work, passion, and creativity helped give life to an entirely new genre of gaming, and our fondest memories of playing Dungeons & Dragons continue to inspire us. Farewell, Dave, and thank you. You will be missed,” the post ends.
