Zombie time: Pre-launch event gives players a taste of ‘Lich King’

Wrath of the Lich King” is here!


Well, almost.
Starting last Thursday, “World of Warcraft ( Buy wow gold )” players found themselves confronted by an ever-increasing number of zombies at the capital cities of the world, thanks to a Scourge plague unleashed by the lich king as part of a “pre-launch” event for the expansion, which is due out Nov. 13.
You could become infected and become a zombie, and turn other players and non-player characters into zombies with a thirst for brains. If you didn’t want to become a zombie, you could find an Argent Dawn healer and get cleansed of the disease.
Some players found the zombie event fun. Others found it irritating — especially if you had a quest to turn in or needed to take a flight somewhere and the non-player character you needed was dead because of the zombies.
Part of the event allowed you to go out into the world and fight the Scourge. You could get runes that you could trade in to Argent Dawn quartermasters for epic items, tabards and other goodies. You also got to increase your Argent Dawn reputation if you weren’t already exalted.
A new boss was added to Karazhan, who dropped a unique pet and the chance of an epic axe that also could be played like a guitar.
The zombie stage is over now, as a cure has been found, but the Scourge invasion will continue for a while and the new Kara boss will be up for another week, giving players more of a taste of what “Wrath of the Lich King promises.”
