<font size="3" style="line-height: 1.3em;"><b>Introducing the DanceBattle System</b></font><br />Blizzard posted another announcement! April 1st is definitely an eventful day. <br /><div class="blizzquotewrap"><div class="blizzquoteinner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span><div class="blizzquoteheader"><span>Quote from: <b>Blizzard (<a href="http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/pvp/dance/index.xml" target="_blank" style="color: white;">Source</a>)</span></b></div><div class="blizzquote">The act of jubilant self-expression through dancing has long been an integral part of World of Warcraft&#39;s social interactions. Now it&#39;s been taken to a whole new level with the new Dance Battle system, coming to the game in an upcoming content patch. Combining elements of Arena competition with the dynamism and creativity of coordinated, player-controlled dance animations, Dance Battles offer a whole new kind of crew-versus-crew challenge.<br /><br /><font size="3" style="line-height: 1.3em;"><b><span style="color: white;">So you think you can dance?</span></b></font><br />From the interdimensional fortress known as Tempest Keep, Kael&#39;thas Sunstrider has issued a challenge far and wide to dance crews throughout Kalimdor, the Eastern Kingdoms, and Northrend -- in order to find out who is Azeroth&#39;s best dance crew!<br /><br />He&#39;s handpicked his judges from nearby Area 52 in Outland and retrofitted his flying fortress for its new purpose -- to host a series of exhilarating dance-offs. He&#39;s also relocated his fiery, faithful companion A&#39;lar and retooled the phoenix&#39;s chamber to accommodate the competition. It&#39;s here that your crew will find the NPC dancemasters, who will allow you to initiate a dance-off or accept another crew&#39;s challenge.<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss1-x.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss1-x_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss2-x.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss2-x_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss3-x.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss3-x_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss4-x.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss4-x_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></div><br /><font size="3" style="line-height: 1.3em;"><b><span style="color: white;">You&#39;d better bring it!</span></b></font><br />You perform dance moves using a custom interface similar to those that appear when controlling a vehicle in Wrath of the Lich King. The custom action bar displays all available dance moves, which each crew member can individually configure by speaking to the appropriate NPC before the competition.<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss5-x.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss5-x_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss6-x.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss6-x_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss7-x.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/ss7-x_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></div><br />Next, your crew will need to create their routine. To practice, simply select a backing track, and the music will begin after a brief countdown. The best routines are carefully planned out in advance and executed with individual skill as well as with an overall group dynamic in mind.<br /><br /><font size="3" style="line-height: 1.3em;"><b><span style="color: white;">Warstomp the yard</span></b></font><br />Once engaged in a Dance Battle, simply select the dance move you wish to perform, and your character will execute it. As with the Arena system, close communication and teamwork is crucial -- you&#39;ll have to be in sync, both with the music as well as with the other members of your crew, to become the "server" and not the "servee."<br /><br /><div align="center"><object width="560" height="370"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/pX9Bs2zDSw8"><b>General Vezax - Hard Mode Testing</b></font><br />General Vezax Hard Mode will be available for testing on European PTRs, starting at 19:00 CEST. <br /><br />[html]<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/css/tabview.css"> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/js/yahoo-dom-event.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/js/element-min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/js/tabview-min.js"></script> <style>.yui-nav { border-bottom: 1px solid gray !important; }.yui-navset { width: 700px !important; margin: 0 auto; }.yui-content { border-top: 0 !important; padding: 0 !important; }tr.loot1:hover, tr.loot2:hover {background:#d6ffb2;}.loot1 {background-color:#ebebeb;}.loot2 {background-color:#FFFFFF;}.iepic { font-weight: bold; color: #A335EE !important; }</style><body class="yui-skin-sam"><div style="width:700px; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;"><h1 style="text-align:center">General Vezax</h1><p><a target="_blank" href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/generalvezax.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;" src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2009/march/vezax_small_article.jpg" /></a></p><div style="padding-top:6px;font-size:18px;font-weight:bold;">Abilities</div><table bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="700px" class="sortable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" style="border-left: 1px solid #96BC27; border-right: 1px solid #96BC27; border-top: 1px solid #96BC27;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<tr><td style="padding-left: 5px"><b>General Vezax</b><br /><b>Health:</b> 30,000,000 HP<br /><b>Hard Mode:</b> Do not use any Saronite Vapors during the fight.</td></tr></table><table class="sortable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" style="border: 1px solid #96BC27;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<tr bgcolor="#96BC27">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<td width="30">&nbsp;</td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<td width="150"><b>Spell</b></td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<td width="520"><b>Description</b></td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</tr>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<tr class="loot1">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<td class="tableData"><a target="_blank" href="http://ptr.wowhead.com/?spell=62692" rel="spell=62692"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" src="http://static.wowhead.com/images/icons/medium/spell_shadow_shadowfury.jpg"></a></td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<td class="tableData"><a target="_blank" href="http://ptr.wowhead.com/?spell=62692" rel="spell=62692"><b>Aura of Despair</b></a><br></td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<td class="tableData">Prevents mana regeneration from nearly all natural sources.
