Season 4 End Date Announced!
September 30, 2008 by Donjo
This afternoon Tigole calmed the fears of many players who thought they were going to lose their Brutal Gladiator titles to triple Retribution Paladin teams by announcing that the end of Season 4 would happen on the day that the 3.0 Patch hits live servers.
We’ve reevaluated certain aspects of how the arena system and current arena season will be affected during both the next content patch, and the launch of Wrath of the Lich King. For starters, the current arena season will end in respect to the ladder upon the release of our next major patch. What this means is, we’ll be taking a snapshot of the current season’s ladder just before the realms are taken down for patch maintenance, and our normal process will commence to determine who is eligible for the end-of-season rewards.
Teams and ratings will not be wiped at that time, and will carry forward allowing players to earn points each week (and buy gear) until the launch of the expansion on November 13th. Almost immediately before Wrath of the Lich King releases, all arena teams as well as ratings will be wiped and arena charter NPCs disabled.
So there you have it, no need to worry.

Ignore my forum post on this issue, now this is justice! I swear I thought Blizzard was just going to let the arena balance go out the window and make it a cookie cutter finding free for all. Looking forward to trying out mutilate without having to worry about tanking any of my team ratings :D!
This sucks. I was looking forward to finally having a good class for arena, ret paladin. Seeing as how we haven’t ever had love and paladins are the least represented class on high-rated teams, I think I deserve a chance to roll my way to 2200.
“Good class” being the ability to wear all blues and two shot anything in full season 4 gear? I seriously doubt that ret paladins will go live as they are now.
