As I write this news, it looks like the pre-Wrath of the Lich King world event has been started on one of the US live servers, we're still unsure if it's just an error or if Blizzard is testing the event on a few servers. Below is a small preview of what to expect during this event .... You can probably expect more updates in the next hours if the event is extended to all realms.

* Zombies will randomly spawn in the world (and near cities) and infect anyone they damage.
* People infected by zombies can either get cured by other players or by Argent Healers deployed in most of the zones.
* If a player or NPC isn't cured within 10 minutes ... He will turn into a zombie !
* Players changed into zombies have access to a new set of skills to let them attack and infect other players. They become friendly with other zombies and hostile to all player factions.

findar · 10-22-2008, 05:53 PM

Mageling · 10-22-2008, 05:56 PM

Finally I can kill some of the mouthbreathers in my faction? Please say it's so!

Needless · 10-22-2008, 06:03 PM

you hit for maybe 13 damage, it takes swarms and Mangle stacking to even remotely hurt an actual player :\

MrGraham · 10-22-2008, 06:12 PM

I just got yelled at for killing like 6 zombies

Sharmai · 10-22-2008, 06:17 PM

It's live on Mal'Ganis (I'm not sure of thats the server he was talking about) Your also NOT hostile with enemy mobs. I do not know if if you can still attack enemy mobs.

You ARE hostile with former non hostile forces including your faction and the other faction.

I can also report that the damage is below subpar. I mean super fucking low. You can infect npcs and they will turn into zombies after 10 minutes (where the get promptly owned for sucknig so much)

You can go to different zones and still retain the debuff and you will turn into a zombie whereever your at.

I haven't tried going to newbie zones yet and infecting newbies but thats on my to do list.

Sutekh · 10-22-2008, 06:23 PM

40 zombies, meets one arcane mage, you lose.

Blizzard fails at fun again.

Makata · 10-22-2008, 06:25 PM

Is there a point to this? Did they seriously waste time making a mini-game of project M from EQ? Is there even any reward for being a successful zombie?

Im sitting in XR with about 50 alliance (I am horde) goon squad people. The flight master is dead, and every other npc is a zombie. You can talk to opposite faction and everything.

That sounds kinda cool.

If you're bitching about it, you must be one of those people that will bitch at anything.

I can picture everyone running around having fun while Makata is bitching for an hour about it in trade chat.
