Tauren Mount and Racial Traits Announced
Written by Robbie   
Friday, 05 November 2004
ontrary to what was previously stated by Blizzard. Taurens now officially have their own mount and will not have to disgrace themselves by their originally planned form of running on all fours. The only beast large enough to carry a Tauren would be a Kodo so this is their new mount. (I knew it all along :P).

Also, racial traits were announced today for every race. Each race will get 4 traits, 1 self activated and several passive. Here are the activated traits:

Dwarf - Stoneform: Activate to gain immunity to poison, disease, and bleed
Gnome - Escape Artist: Activate to break out of a Root or Snare effect
Human - Perception: Activate to increase stealth detection radius
Night Elf - Shadowmeld: Activate while immobile and out of combat to enter stealth mode
Orc - Blood Fury: Activate to increase Strength
Tauren - War Stomp: Activate to stun opponents
Troll - Berserking: Activate when "Wounded" to increase melee & spellcasting speed
Undead - Will of the Forsaken: Activate to become immune to fear, sleep, and charm effects

he day has finally come. Blizzard has officially ended the Closed Beta stage and has announced their final stress test.

"Blizzard Entertainment is proud to announce that the free open beta has begun. In preparation for the launch of World of Warcraft, we are now introducing the most complete version of the game, including a new patch with extensive content, including racial traits, raids, Hunter and Paladin talents, new quests for high-end zones, and much more. We need your help for a final, massive test of our infrastructure, account creation, and the game itself. So we are now opening up the testing phase to the entire Internet-ready public of North America, Australia, and New Zealand. So if you aren't already playing World of Warcraft, sign up for the open beta now and begin your adventures in Azeroth!

An initial run of open beta accounts is now available from FilePlanet, so please visit www.fileplanet.com to grab your open beta key. Please note that there is no fee whatsoever for the open beta; the open beta is absolutely free. Unlike with the final stress test, you do not have to be a FilePlanet subscriber to participate in the open beta.

If you want to learn more about the open beta test, please read our Open Beta FAQ. The open beta slots are available on a first come, first served basis, so hurry to FilePlanet and grab your key as soon as you can. We hope to see you in Azeroth soon."
