*New neutral flightpath in the [[Hatchet Hills]] in [[Ghostlands]], just outside Zul'Aman. It's name says "Zul'Aman" instead of Hatchet Hills at the flight master interface. The flight path is connected to [[Light's Hope Chapel]] in [[Eastern Plaguelands]] (both sides) and [[Tranquillien]] in Ghostlands (Horde only); the flight master over there is [[Kiz Coilspanner]].
 
−
**It goes without saying that with the addition of this new flight path, flights from [[Quel'thalas]] to Lordaeron and beyond are now possible, making the game flow a bit smoother.
 
−
*The font used to display numerics on UI bars has changed from Arial Narrow (as in chat boxes) to Friz Quadrata TT (as in user and guild names).
 
−
*Drinking system messages have been expanded to include what a person getting drunk is drinking. (Example: "Thatoneguy seems a little tipsy from the {{item|Rhapsody Malt}}.")
 
−
* Tracking abilities such as Track Humanoids now distinguish allies and hostile targets.
 
−
* Guild Information panel now features a 'Log' button, which shows invites, removals, promotions and demotions. Number of log lines it retains is unknown at this time.
 
−
* [[Griftah]] has moved back into Shattrath, now with a quest for Zul'Aman
 
−
* Pitch Up and Pitch Down keybindings have been added back into the game. There is no longer a pitch limit, allowing you to use these keybindings to do flips on flying mounts.
 
−
* Killing some (but not all) members of the [[Syndicate]] now gives [[Ravenholdt]] reputation, and decreases Syndicate faction (previously killing Syndicate NPCs did not lower this faction's reputation)
 
−
* Bodies will now fall to the ground when killed in mid air, continuing their previous momentum. Players cannot release their spirits until the body has landed.
 
−
* [[Cro Threadstrong]] now shouts more phrases at [[Granny Smith]]
 
−
* [[Fiora Longears]] has been moved from [[Theramore Isle]] to [[Auberdine]].
 
−
* The packs of [[felhounds]] have been removed from [[Demon Fall Canyon]].

*New Arena System: '''Personal Ratings'''<ref name="dryscarena1" />
 
−
**The Personal Rating will be unique for each team the character belongs to.

**It will only be affected by the games that the player plays in, not all team games.
 
−
**Eligibility for end of season rewards will be determined by the Personal Rating, which must be within 100 of the team's rating.
 
−
**It can't be padded by joining a new team. The Personal Rating will reset for the bracket when a new team is joined.
 
−
*'''Season Three''' - Season Three gear will require a certain amount of arena rating points. Furthermore, the rating requirement is based on a new personal arena rating that is independent for each member on a team. <ref name="dryscarena1">{{ref web

−
== Professions ==
 
  +
{{Elinks-quest|6662}}
−  
−
=== Alchemy ===
 
−
* The categories in the profession UI changed. Previously the category for potions, elixirs and flasks was "Consumables" and most transmutes were in the "Transmute" category. After 2.3.0, the categories are now "Elixir," "Flask," "Other" (where [[Cauldron (alchemy)|Cauldrons]] and consumable oils such as [[Frost Oil]] are placed), "Potions," "Meta" (for the [[Transmute: Earthstorm Diamond]] and [[Transmute: Skyfire Diamond]] recipes), "Elemental" (for the Primal and Essence transmutes), "Herb" (for the [[Philosopher's Stone]]), "Metal & Stone," "Other" (yes, a second Other category, this time for the [[Alchemist's Stone]], [[Mercurial Stone]], [[Ghost Dye]], and the crafting oils such as [[Fire Oil]]), and "Parts" (for [[Goblin Rocket Fuel]]). The "Quest" category, containing [[Gurubashi Mojo Madness]], is unchanged.
 
−  
−
===Blacksmithing===
 
−
*Various crafting categories have been created/rearranged to include recipes in different categories. For example, Iron Counterweight was under the category "Trade Goods" before Patch 2.3, now it can be found under "Item Enhancement". This recategorization seems somewhat inconsistent, as at least one of the grinding stones are in one category ("Other") while various grinding stones are in a separate new category "Metal & Stone". At present, it is unclear what the reasoning was for creating the new smithing categories or the assignment of Blacksmithing recipes therein.
 
−  
−
=== Cooking ===
 
−
* A new recipe for [[Skullfish Soup]] will allow cooks to create a mana regenerative consumable with a ‘well-fed’ buff that requires one of the new types of fish found near Karazhan and Zul’Aman.
 
−
* The category in the profession UI changed. Previously all recipes were in the "Consumable" category. Now the category is labeled "Food & Drink," except for Broiled Bloodfin which is in the "Meat" category (which seems like a bug).
 
−  
−
=== Engineering ===
 
−
* [[Fel Iron Musket]] no longer requires [[Thorium Tube]] x2 to manufacture. The ingredient has been changed to [[Heavy Stock]].
 
−
* Non-combat pets (like the {{loot|common|Mechanical Squirrel Box|Mechanical Squirrel}}) have been moved to a new "Pet" category.
 
−  
−
=== Leatherworking ===
 
−
* Greatly reduced mats needed to craft all drums (no longer need primals, only different kinds of common leather) and drums have been upgraded from 30 charges to 50.
 
−
* New +10 stamina armor patches can be learned from leatherworking trainer. Requires 350 skill to craft.
 
−
* Rebalanced skill requirements to craft all drums.
 
−
* Due to various changes to drums skill requirements, new armor patches, gloves reinforcements and new quivers, it is possible to reach 375 Leatherwoking skill by crafting only blue items.
 
−  
−
=== Fishing ===
 
−
* [[API GetItemInfo|GetItemInfo]] now returns "Fishing Poles" instead of "Fishing Pole" for the itemSubType for all fishing poles.
 
−  
−
== Quests ==
 
−
* [[Quest:Lord Illidan Stormrage|Lord Illidan Stormrage]] &mdash; The trip from [[Netherwing Ledge]] to [[Shattrath]] on Yarzil's back is much faster now.
 
−
* The quest chain beginning with [[Quest:Ursius of the Shardtooth]] in Everlook can now be picked up by both factions, because the NPC [[Storm Shadowhoof]] is no longer hostile to the [[Alliance]].
 
−
* The Winterspring quest chain started by [[Donova Snowden]] now culminates in a blue trinket, either Strength of the High Chief (+50 attack power), or Power of the High Chief (Increases damage and healing done by magical spells and effects by up to 29).
 
−
* In [[Blackrock Depths]], you no longer bash the beer barrels in order to get [[Hurley Blackbreath]] to show up. Instead, you "open" them.
 
−
* Reputation gains from the quests related to the [[Wintersaber Trainers]] faction have been increased.
 
−
* The [[Custodian of Time]] that shows you around the [[Caverns of Time]] now walks much faster. The new walk speed is slightly slower than running backward.
 
−
* [[Zuluhed the Whacked]] and [[Arcubus Destroyer]] are now hostile to all players, regardless of Netherwing reputation level.
 
−
* [[Diathorus the Seeker]] has been moved closer to the entrance of the [[Barrow Den]], in [[Demon Fall Ridge]].
 
−
* The waves of harpies have been removed from starting [[Quest:Test of Endurance|Test of Endurance]]. [[Grenka Bloodscreech]] is summoned after breaking one box.
 
−  
−
== Dungeons ==
 
−
=== Serpentshrine Cavern ===
 
−
* The Circular platform in [[The Lurker Below]] encounter was a bit changed. There are now small ramps on its borders, making it easier to get back onto it. The platform where the ranged adds appear remains unchanged.
 
−
* Whirlwind animation for [[Leotheras the Blind]] was fixed and no longer looks insanely buggy.
 
−  
−
=== The Mechanar ===
 
−
* Mobs no longer reset after moving down the elevator. They can get lodged in the wall or stand at the top, making them very hard to kill and almost always impossible to loot. See this [[Talk:Patch_2.3.0#Undocumented_change_to_Mechanar|conversation]] with a GM for more information.
 
−  
−
== Items ==
 
−
*{{loot|epic|Badge of Justice|Badges of Justice}} will also be available off [[Karazhan]] and [[Zul'Aman]] bosses. You will be rewarded 1-3 {{loot|epic|Badge of Justice|Badges of Justice}} per boss.<ref name="pvp trinkets"/>
 
−
*{{loot|common|Rune of Teleportation|Runes of Teleportation}} and {{loot|common|Rune of Portals|Runes of Portals}} now stack in lots of 20, up from 10. The sound the runes make has also changed.
 
−
*{{loot|common|Depleted Crystal Focus}} now stack up to 20 (previously, stack size was 1.)
 
−
*Witching Band (the epic drop from the [[Headless Horseman]] event) has been changed to {{loot|epic|Witches Band}}.
 
−
*[[Mote of Life]] can now be placed in [[Bags#Craft_Bags|Herb Bags]].
 
−
*All [[Mote]]s and [[Primal ingredient|Primals]] (Including {{loot|rare|Primal Might}} and {{loot|rare|Primal Nether}}) can be placed in [[Bags#Craft_Bags|Enchanting Bags]].
 
−
*[[Mote]]s and [[Primal ingredient|Primals]] of [[Fire]], and [[Earth]] can be placed in [[Bags#Craft_Bags|Engineering Bags]] and [[Bags#Craft_Bags|Mining Bags]].
 
−
*[[Toolbox]]es can hold ALL [[Mote]]s and [[Primal ingredient|Primals]].
 
−
* Essence of X items such as {{loot|uncommon|Essence of Undeath}} and {{loot|uncommon|Essence of Water}} can now be placed in [[Bags#Craft_Bags|Enchanting Bags]].
 
−
*{{loot|common|Ichor of Undeath}} can also be placed in [[Bags#Craft_Bags|Enchanting Bags]].
 
−
*{{loot|common|Field Repair Bot 74A}} will now stack up to 5.
 
−
*{{loot|common|SnowMaster 9000}} can now be used while sitting. This also means it can be used while eating or drinking.
 
−  
−
== World Environment ==
 
−  
−
* [[Boat]]s and [[Zeppelin]]s that carry players are now populated with NPC crews, some of which are vendors. The boats also now rock side-to-side while moving.
 
−
** The aforementioned crews were unfortunately removed some time after Patch 2.3.0 and before 2.3.2.
 
−
* The boat between [[Teldrassil]] and [[Darkshore]], and the one between the [[Forgotten Coast]] and [[Feathermoon Stronghold]] now use the night elf ship model, rather than the human ship model.
 
−
* The travel time of boats and zeppelins appears to have been shortened, meaning shorter flights.
 
−
* All [[Netherdrake]] mounts will now leave a trail of energy behind them while traveling.
 
−
* Inn in [[Sanctum of the Sun]] ([[Scryer]] outpost in [[Shadowmoon Valley]]) is no longer flagged as an inn area. There is still an innkeeper, but you no longer get the rested bonus.
 
−
* Fishing difficulty for Skysong Lake in [[Nagrand]] has increased. Prior to 2.3.0, fishing skill of 475 was adequate to always be successful. Post 2.3.0 they will escape occasionally at the same level.
 
−
* [[Bloodvenom Post]] in [[Felwood]] now has a path leading to it directly from the nearby road. Some environmental objects that were previously obstructing the path have been removed.
 
−
* [[Warden Iolol]] renamed '''Warden Moi'bff Jill'''.
 
−
* [[Wretched]] npc's got a new look.
 
−
* [[Thrall]] now sits on his throne.
 
−  
−
== Item Drop Rate ==
 
−  
−
*Due to the lowering of mob levels in level 1-60 instances, items that were previously available from most mobs in the instance can now only be found on bosses.
 
−
**Most notable items effected are the sought after twink weapons, [[Shadowfang]] and [[Assassin's Blade]] from SFK and [[Pendulum of Doom]] from Uldaman.
 
−
**The item level of the items has not been changed but the mob levels have.
 
−
*Blizzard has not commented on this and it is unsure whether this was purposeful or unintended.
 
−
*It is also unknown as to whether the situation will be fixed to the delight of all new twinks out there.
 
−  
−
== Sound ==
 
−
*Human and Dwarven inns have new music added.
 
−
*[[Karazhan]] has 14 new soundtracks for different parts of the dungeon.
 
−
*New music has been added to the [[Temple of the Moon]] in [[Darnassus]].
 
−
*Many miscellaneous sounds have been added to creatures throughout the game, including Mounts.
 
−
*The option for "Sound at Character" has been removed from the interface. All sound is now at the character by default,
 
−
**According to a [http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=2855963817&sid=1 BLUE forum post], the following commands disable sound at character:
