It looks like there's a good chance patch 3.0.8 will be released today. As such, we've prepared all our 3.0.8
resources into one gigantic page that you can reference: WoW Insider's Guide to Patch 3.0.8. This includes everything from the class changes and analysis, to patch notes, to all the fun with achievements.
Assuming 3.0.8 is released today, we should be getting the official live patch notes within the next eight hours or so. In the mean time, the PTR notes
will provide a great insight into what is to come.
Keep an eye out here for the latest. There'll be at least a few of us writers up late tonight!
