Any primer for returning players?

So I just picked this back up on a 10 day trial(Not sure if I'll resub), I quit WoW back before Firelands in Cataclysm. I sort of loosely followed game changes since then, but wondered if anyone has a primer or 'cliff notes' of what's changed, story, game mechanics, etc since then?

This article might help a bit-

A Return to World of Warcraft- http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/8876440

And when you want to "catch-up" to what's happening in patch 5.3- http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/9601895

You also might want to check out the Game Guide and read more in the Story of Warcraft as well. - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/game/the-story-of-warcraft/chapter23

Hopefully it helps a little. Feel free to ask for more information here on the forums too (New Player forum actually has a lot of information and helpful people too.) If there's something you think would help others to know for future such articles, just let me know. :) It would help us with shaping more of those articles.

Also, Welcome back!

Thanks Neth, glad to see you still around. Still one of my favorite blues. :)


Thanks! I've predominantly been working on the front page content, but I'm here as well and on Twitter too @nethaera . :)
