WoW Public Test Realm

For those of you that play, or for those of you who have thought about playing, Blizzard has a pretty neat deal going on the test realm right now. With the new patch 1.10 on the test server, you can transfer 2 "premade" lvl 60 characters to the test realm and play around with it.

The characters start with their "Tier 0" sets, an epic weapon, a couple of epic rings, an epic mount, and 150g. I thought this is a neat way to see how other classes play end-game.

I just spent about 3hrs in BGs playing around with a UD shadow priest, and it was pwnage.

If you're interested, the link is http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/ptr/

Thats pretty cool, i might have to give it a shot too. Is there some special link you have to click on or go to? Or does it present you the option at the transfer character screen?

EDIT: Nevermind, found the link

The test servers were down earlier today, for other than regular maintenance. They're back up now, I just logged on. I have a couple of friends that play Horde on Aegwynn. They wanted me to make a full move over there, but I'm too setup on Boulderfist now.

*If anyone wants to rock some BGs with me on the PTR hit me up. I'm playing a UD mage on the US PVE server - name: Thinmints :P

I tried it out, found out, I don't know how to play a warrior.

I ran by to my lvl 60 pally, which has some sweet epics now.
