Glimpse of Trial of the Champion Loot

The testing has finally started for the Trial of the Champion (Crusader’s Coliseum 5 man dungeon) in the Patch 3.2 PTR. So far the word is that the encounters are quite buggy but we’ve already gotten a glimpse on the kind of loot that drops from the bosses on both normal and heroic difficulty.

The first bit of good news is that every single piece of loot that drops from the bosses in this 5 man dungeon is an epic quality item much like the gear that dropped from Magisters’ Terrace in The Burning Crusade expansion. This will give those alts or even those mains who still need some gear upgrades for certain slots. To think that this isn’t even the final 5 man dungeon that’s coming out for the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. Expect the same thing for the Icecrown Citadel 5 man, only with even better gear.

The other piece of good news is that all the gear that drops from this dungeon are Naxx quality with the regular difficulty bosses dropping Item Level 200 gear (similar to Naxx 10) and the heroic difficulty bosses dropping Item Level 213 gear (similar to Naxx 25). This is obviously a godsend again for those players who need to fill up some holes in their gear and also especially for those people who cannot or barely do any raids.

You can see a partial list of the Loot table for this dungeon from MMO Champion here. I’m already drooling at some of the things listed and to think it’s not even complete yet.

Being a blogger it’s nice to see that I’ve left some kind of mark in the vast sea of information that is the Internet. Something that I’ve been quite fascinated about all these years is Youtube and the kind of finger print I can leave behind through that magnificent site if ever i had a video camera. My guess is that I probably won’t do much since I’m a shy type person but who knows.

Over the years I’ve been with several guilds, running all kinds of raids and I know of only one group of people that recorded some of the runs but to my knowledge I never was in any of them. If ever i was, it probably back in the days of the 40 man raids when we were doing Molten Core and who knows if I could even find myself in that kind of crowd.

Then just yesterday I was surprised to finally see myself in Youtube! Well it wasn’t really me but my druid running 25 man Naxx. The scene that was recorded was our attempt for the Four Horsemen encounter that eventually led to the successful kill (since we wiped once because we had new guys learning the fight). I’m the sexy tree druid running around healing!

Thanks to my guildmate Bloodemyth from Casus Belli – Bronzebeard for recording and posting this video!
