## For players

- Orcs and Trolls are no longer held at the Den waiting for level 3 to take
  Lazy Peons: Foreman Thazz'ril gives it on the return to the Den, once the
  valley's turn-ins have brought you to level 3; you wake the peons sleeping
  around the Den and the lumber piles, then take Thazz'ril's Pick with you to
  the Burning Blade Coven. The same fix for two other
  quests the route offered just before their level: The Red Crystal for Night
  Elves (now on the next Auberdine stop) and Beren's Peril in Silverpine (now
  on the later Sepulcher stop, before its loop).
- The arrow gives you room again. It points down the road instead of swinging
  at every bend (bends up to 20 yards to the side count as the road), lets you
  walk up to 15 yards beside the path with the arrow pointing along it, and,
  outdoors, lets you join a road at an angle instead of sending you to the
  exact spot where the path meets it. Real corners, doorways, bridges and
  switchbacks still turn it at the corner.
- The Polestar emblem in the main menu looks like the app icon now: a bolder
  star and ring with its bright center and a soft glow.
- French: the guides' texts are translated (9,493 of 9,934; the rest are
  texts new in 0.3.1): steps,
  tips, notes and route choices of the leveling, class, profession, reputation
  and collectible guides. Thanks Yendi.
- French: the whole interface is translated (503 strings and the Recorder's
  10), and the welcome's sample goal and the class card's quest giver name the
  NPC or item in French. Thanks Yendi.
- German: the 157 texts new in 0.3.0 are translated (bag space and junk,
  Restock, class quest cards, the guide's hand-in warnings and more), so the
  German interface is complete again (thanks Cortexyn).
- German: the Cozy Sleeping Bag's step names Honor's Stand by the client's
  German name, Ehrenwacht (thanks Cortexyn).
- The end of a leveling guide is no longer silent: when you finish its last
  step, a window says you completed it (or reached its end, and how many steps
  you left undone) and offers the next guide, the zones to choose from, or the
  guide menu. Stay instead and the guide window keeps a "Start <next guide>"
  link at the top. It asks once per guide per character. The old option
  "Continue to the next guide" is now "When a leveling guide ends": "Ask me"
  (the window) or "Continue automatically" (the next guide loads by itself and
  the guide window says so). Everyone starts on "Ask me", also if you had the
  old option on: pick "Continue automatically" in Options → Guide →
  Automation to keep the old way.
- One Barrens guide for every Horde race: the Orc and Troll arrival steps (the
  Crossroads, Thun'grim, the Shaman's fire totem, Ratchet) open "The Barrens
  (12-16)" for Orcs and Trolls only, instead of a separate guide with the same
  name; Durotar hands over to it directly. Guide names leave out capitals and
  zones you only pass through (Silverpine Forest, Arathi Highlands & Badlands,
  Winterspring and more).
- Talent plans are paused for now: the Talents page says "Coming soon", and
  Polestar no longer marks the game's talent frame, adds plan lines to talent
  tooltips or reminds you of unspent points. The plans weren't ready to
  recommend picks yet; they'll come back once they are. Gear advice still
  follows the talents you've chosen.
- Quests are handed in where you finish them instead of on a later trip back:
  Sarkoth at Hana'zua as soon as he's dead, before the Vile Familiars (Orcs
  and Trolls), Crossroads
  Conscription to Sergra as you arrive at the Crossroads (Orcs and Trolls),
  MacKreel's Moonshine on the first Southshore stop, Fiery Menace! and Curse
  These Fat Fingers at Thorium Point, A Strange Historian and A Matter of Time
  to Chromie right after the Andorhal towers, Gahz'ridian on the way past
  Marvon, and Duke Nicholas Zverenhoff on the first Light's Hope stop.
