I'm hearing a lot of buzz about the new Zul'Aman dungeon that is coming soon. But at the same time I'm hearing about a new voice chat feature and guild bank features that may be added around the same time. Are any of our loved blues able to give us any details about the guild bank and voice chat functions? Enquiring minds want to know.

Details are still sparse as both features are still under development.

The guild bank is a centralized place where a guild can store items outside of personal bank space. Guild Masters will be able to apply access levels to the different ranks of their guild members, effectively allowing them to mark specific portions of the guild bank accessible by specific ranks.

Voice chat will allow in-game voice chat without the need of an outside program, it's all neatly built into the game. You'll be able to see who is talking by indicators in the UI, and while someone is talking the volume of game sounds/music will be lowered.

There's obviously a lot more going on with both of these upcoming features, but again they're still under development and we'll be releasing a lot more information as we get closer to them being completed.

Q u o t e:
Hey Drysc, any chance we can get some kind of idea on the ETA of these features?(even a little hint?)


Sometime after now and before the next expansion.
