Here it is, folks: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/
Let's use this as a unified place to discuss what is likely to be the most disruptive expansion yet!
Yes, I'm rolling a Worgen. No, I'm not a Furry.
But G they have no Worgen

What is the "path system"

Here's the info we got on

Archaeology information coming up. It is a secondary profession.
Lots of ruins, especially now. Checking out the ruins gets you archaeology notes, lets you research to make discoveries. This will lead into the new character progression: Path of the Titans.
Path of the Titans is a new way to customize your character. The 51 point talents now will be the 51 point talents in the expansion, so this is the new progression for Cataclysm. 5 new talent points, no new talents.
Path of the Titans has multiple paths, not limited by class. Every class can take every path. Passive bonuses, some new abilities depending on your Path. New dimension to character customization.
"Mastery system" to prune some complexity of the talent trees. "Too much stuff" in some of the talents. Taking character power out of talents to give more interesting choices, but mastery is based on which tree you choose.
Example, Mastery would be the straight damage increases. But talents would offer the variety instead of the "+10% damage" or whatever.
This is brilliant.
