Level 70 in the Expansion?
It looks though as if they (Blizzard?) had said passage on the title cover of the Italian mag blackened out already, but I think the news is valid nevertheless. The translation is/was:
"Blizzard astonishes all carrying us to the Seventieth Level"
Which consequences will a new level-cap at 70 have for WOW and its balancing? Speculate away :)

It happened a thousand times in EQ. It's sad seeing the "top level" areas get reduced to ghetto instances that never see play because there is better loot out there. Here's to hoping this doesn't happen!
It's a tricky position. They have to keep adding new areas and new and better loot to keep the players interested. That is wonderful, but I will still sigh the day that our current bad-boy Nefarious sits atop a lonely Blackrock Mountain weeping because his loot isn't good enough to warrant anyone's attention.
Hopefully Blizzard can figure out a clever way of avoiding this. They seem to have managed so far, but it hasn't really been that long. Guilds started beating MC, and along comes BWL. Then comes ZG. One harder and one easier. I think ZG, MC, and BWL are enough to occupy most guilds for a very long time, and anything new at this point will only be novelty (like the four dragons).
If I had a point in all this, I lost it. Sorry :blush:
