This screenshot was found on a WoW forum and precariously claims to display the Sword of One Thousand Truths which will be winnable in arena matches in the Burning Crusade.
Some problems with the legitimacy of this claim, besides the obvious, are that the weapon model is exactly the same as another well-known sword, the Hungering Cold, and that the text kerning or ligature or whatever is all funked up in the item description.
Photoshop?! Can it BEEEE?

I saw this earlier and thought to myself:
"Self, you know that's a very powerful weapon, so why are you so dissapointed?"
"Well Self, it's because it's still not as powerful as its cameo appearance in South Park. That and it's a mere purple weapon. I was expecting red, or at the very least orange..."
Then I went and cried myself to sleep...
It has the same graphic as The Hungering Cold because in the WoW South Park episode, that's the graphic they used.
*Yawn*
I was sondering when something like this would happen.
comment push!
Wheres the mana drain in its stats? useless!
I love the little things Blizzard puts into WoW. Like how all the goblins in Everlook are named after FF6 characters, or the group of people named after Fight Club characters who constantly fight in the Undercity.
Bucha guys with a sense of humor, right there.
I can believe this. Blizzard added the Doomulous Prime weapon after it appeared in the Foxtrot comic. Mmmm fake uberness.
kerning is the space between 2 individual letters.
tracking is changing the space between letters in a line of type or word equally.
ligatures are the combining of of glyphs in a typeface...like the "fi" or "ff" in garamond.
go design nerds.
errr. I'm confused. I understand the implications of this mighty weapon, yet still don't feel the urge to PAY A SUBSCRIPTION TO PLAY A GAME I WANT TO PLAY. maybe its just me who still finds subscriptions totally fucking batshit insane.
Skuddington, are you on the right website?
They should've added mana burn and only made available after buying a WoW themed flash drive.
kerning is the space between 2 letters.
tracking is equal spacing between all letters in a line of type.
ligatures are connected glyphs in a specific type face i.e. the "fi" and "ff" in garamond.
go design nerds.
They should have kept the sword on a small flash drive and sold it! Or at least give the option, that would be pretty funny in itself.
And Skuddington, I know this isn't going to help, but they need to pay not only for the staff to run the business but they have servers that need updates and fixing and networks that need to stay up. So paying a monthly fee is normal, it's like a phone.
You buy the phone and the connection fee (game price) then you pay the monthly fee to use their lines and for the support of those lines (monthly game fee). Thats why we pay monthly fees to play a game.
Pretty sure this is most likely on a private server.
I wouldn't put it past Blizzard to add it in somewhere but this screenshot looks like a fake.
Also are they changing how stats work and such? Because I'm sure resiliance rating didn't exist before.
Look for the Gladiators Cleaver here http://www.monthsbehind.net/pictures/bcpvpreward.jpg :)
Well if they made it look like Hunger Cold it wouldnt be the first time for items to have similar graphics. Drake Talon Shoulders>Alliance exalted AB shoulders. Helm of Dominion>Helm of Enldess rage. Malistars Defender>3 Green shields... So on and so forth, might just be a different color scheme.
