Patch 4.0.3a (world changes)

The list of world changes in Patch 4.0.3a, "The Shattering", is extensive &mdash; the old world has changed drastically as a result of the Cataclysm.

Azeroth Shattered

 * Deathwing's return has had an immeasurable impact throughout the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor. Players will notice drastically altered terrain, thousands of new quests from levels 1-55, and updated level ranges for some zones to improve the questing flow.

General

 * Most unimplemented terrain between zones has been filled for a seamless flying experience, with new mountains, lakes inaccessible by foot, and other filler terrain introduced. Rough jarring shifts in textures in areas not supposed to be accessible by foot have been smoothed over.
 * Hero's Call Boards and Warchief's Command Boards have appeared in capital cities.
 * Mailboxes have been added to starting areas, allowing newly created characters to easily access heirloom items.
