Today's maintenance, March 6, was kept quiet due to the extensive information coming from Austin. However, there has been maintenance and application of patch 1.1.5 which notably sees the addition of the / random command, the change in speeder prices and the addition of new crystals to the sale. Ah, and I think PvP healers will appreciate a little line, down?
