Sneak peak: WAR's highly anticipated 1.2 patch

Mythic gave everyone something to look forward to with their recent Call to Arms live expansion announcement last week, but there was a very loud outcry from players asking when the real issues would be fixed. To address this, Mark Jacobs announced three big patches that would be landing shortly called 1.1.1, 1.2, and 1.3. Patch 1.1.1 was announced to little fanfare (although it did address some T4 concerns with fortresses) and it was noted that many of the fixes originally intended for 1.1.1 were bumped to 1.2 because they needed additional testing.

Mark just made a post on VN giving everyone a sneak peak of what to expect in patch 1.2; a patch he has officially titled the Bugs, Careers, RvR, Bugs, Items and Bugs Patch. It seems like they're bringing out the electric fly-swatter for this one. Highlights from this patch include: over 16 pages of bug fixes, introduction of the Slayer and Choppa, tons of career balance tweaks, the Zone Domination System, improvements to keep siege, itemization, rewards, crafting, the UI, mail system, and client stability, easy PQs for the remaining tiers, the Bitter Rivals live event, and a new scenario.

Dare we call this a "miracle patch?" 1.2 should be on the public test servers next week.
