World of Warcraft was a very different game back in 2004; players could only level up to 60, PVP battlegrounds were just a twinkle in Blizzard's eye, and Onyxia's Lair was pretty much the pinnacle of raiding. Feeling nostalgic yet? So is Blizzard. In honor of the game's upcoming fifth anniversary, the company has decided to dust off some of that old content -- the Onyxia fight, specifically.
According to Blizzard's Under Development page, the developer is working on revamping the classic dungeon for level 80 raiders. To balance the raid for 10-man and Heroic 25-man groups, Onyxia's loot table will be modernized with upgraded versions of the Tier 2 gear she originally dropped. In addition, players will have a shot at looting a 310 percent speed flying mount based on Onyxia's in-game model. And everyone who logs in during the month of November will receive an Onyxia Brood Whelpling vanity pet.
All of these additions are planned for the 3.2.2 patch. The update doesn't currently have a release date, but it should, obviously, be here by November.
