Well I got a chance to go and test out some of the new Russian changes on their server. Of course I don’t speak Russian but I did my best to grab a few basic snapshots of some changes that I could find. I’m a tad confused but people think there is battlegrounds coming up but there is not. They did add something but with the rough translation of the Russian player it was hard to understand. He said there was a battleground type zone but not like WoW. I’m guessing a zone that is just like any zone and it’s always pvp with quests and stuff.. Not sure what to make of this since I never been high level but hope it helps.

This is now above NPC’s that your currently in progress of doing a quest for them. Before there was no icon at all if you were in the progress of doing a quest for an NPC.

This replaces the old quest log minimize button on the top right. Part of the revamp quest log. Now not the actual quest log looks like it changed this one is just the overlay you always see on the right side.

This is the new Quest Sort feature. What this does is when you click this icon on and off it will make it so it displays the local zones quests or all the quests in the world. This makes it cleaner and more simple for people who are trying to figure out what quests are in just that zone.

Most of us knew that this was not going to happen on the NA and EU servers but its also been fixed on the Russian servers. No one on the Russian server liked the idea and they were even losing players without asking for help on the local zone chat. Anyways they made it again so anyone can use zone chat and there adding a special item shop item where now it changes your color when you talk in zone chat rather then grant you access.

This is what I have so far I hope this gives you some clues and ideas of what is to come and don’t forget to check the full Russian patch notes here!
