Forming an online community that mimics real-life interactions has always been one of World of Warcraft's strengths. However, it's been missing one of society's most basic icebreakers--discussions about the weather.

Now, adventurers around Azeroth can finally ask each other canned conversation starters such as, "Some weather we're having, eh?" and "Hot enough for ya?" The latest patch for Blizzard's popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game brings weather to several of the game's realms, as well as other features for high-level players.

In addition to experiencing meteorological effects, gamers will be able to grab some shiny new duds previously unavailable in the game. By battling new bosses and taking on new quests, players can acquire new, rare epic armor sets.

Other new features include the transformation of quest experience to gold for players at level 60, tweaks to the flight system, and heaps of balance tweaks. For more information on the updates, head over to the full patch notes.
