Explore the mystical grounds of the new 5-person dungeon, Magisters' Terrace, where one of the Burning Crusade's most notorious villains is preparing to make his desperate last stand. Lead your raid group straight into the heart of the Sunwell Plateau to confront the most terrifying and deadly agents of the Burning Legion. But beware, for your enemies will not go down without a fight. Expect the demons to send in their most ferocious, brutal, and powerful officers. Your greatest challenge yet awaits.

The new dungeon and raid content is not the only new addition of this upcoming patch. More than a dozen new daily quests will provide fresh new challenges, and a brand-new faction stands ready to reward you for your bravery and commitment. The call goes out to the strongest, most cunning, and bravest heroes to join the Shattered Sun Offensive in the battle to reclaim the Sunwell.

My three sons and I have dabbled with other MMORPGs, and not really gotten hooked. But immediately upon testing World of Warcraft, we fell in love! We were invited to try it by my brother who lives on the other side of the continent. At the same time, my brother was also luring our father away his old MMO. Azeroth has become our daily family reunion, our daily vacation, our frequent anger management therapy (sorry Horde!), and a carrot on a stick that helps motivate us to do our homework.

Soon we added a second computer and a second account to our household, despite mama's protests (we could never get her to convert, sadly). I've had immense fun exploring Azeroth and Outland with our family tribe.

My 14-year-old chose a mighty warrior, and focused completely on leveling him up. He made his uncle and me race to keep up with him in skill and abilities. I often stood in amazement watching him multitask: marking creatures in a dungeon for his party, giving concise commands on which to kill first and which to 'crowd control'; the whole time while managing his own character superbly. He knows all the player classes and often chides me for not using my abilities most efficiently. He is the only one of our family group or circle of online friends to own a Netherdrake! He is driven, and few can stand before him.
