if you have pvp stuff from befor and you need marshal to waer and all the ranks go away will you still be able to waer this armor

Yes, you can wear any armor you have already purchased. You just can't buy anything that requires that rank.

How are the BC Beta invites going to work? And have they been released yet?

Beta invites have been slowly going out. A few each week to random players with an active account, so keep an eye on your email. You might just end up with an invite. If you do get invited, let us know! We'd love to play with you!

Hello, I would like to know what herbs and ore you guys have found so far in BC. As I am a connoisseur of [Black lotus] In WoW and I am very interested in the herbs in BC, could we get a list started?

Being an herbalist myself, I am following the Herbalism and Alchemy quite closely. So far I have found: Felweed, Dreaming Glory, and Ragveil which is used in potions up to at least level 325 alchemy. Stay tuned because once I will becoming out with a detailed guide for herbalism and alchemy in Burning Crusade.

I have only seen one type of mining node so far and that is Fel Iron. I'm sure there are more though.

How big would you say Hellfire Peninsula is compared to, say, the Barrens? Larger? Smaller? Similar size?

I would compare the size of Hellfire Peninsula to that of The Barrens. It is a rather large zone and you can definitely feel that running across it.

I was wondering if the Burning Crusade features some excellent orchestra music like in the original game?

Yes, definitely. There is a new song on the login screen and new music throughout The Outlands. If you happen to pick up a copy of the Collectors Edition, you can get a copy of the new Soundtrack.

I'm intersted in info about when you think the different End-Game instance sets will be replaced, at what level, I'm a mage and thus I'd like to know when you'd think Arcanist, Netherwind, Frostfire and so on will be replaced with other items in BC

At this time, I'm thinking that the majority of Tier 1 and Tier 2 sets will start to be replaced around level 64-65. The blue gear you get at the beginning is about on par and it's not until later on when you start to get gear that actually beats out your set bonuses.

At what level are you able to advance you tradeskills to their new skill cap and what is that cap? Thanks in advance. -Prain

All of the master trainers for tradeskills are in the Outlands. Now I was able to train mine up at level 60 (first thing I did when I got to The Outlands, however you might be able to do this at level 55 when you first enter the Outlands. I am not 100% sure on this, but you can definitely do it at 60. The current tradeskill cap is level 375 for all skills.

A short, and hopefully quick, one. At what player level can one train past 300 of any trade skill. ie you must be 35 to get to 300. Thus, XX to get to 375? Cheers :D

As stated above, you can definitely do it at level 60, you might be able to at level 55 when you can first enter The Outlands, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

so are all the instances done with all the monster and bosses? if not what can you guys do right now?

No, the instances aren't done yet and even the ones that are in the game have some work to be done still (bugged mobs, missing minimaps, etc). Instances I know to be in game are Hellfire Ramparts, Hellfire Blood Furnace, Slave Pens, Underbog, and a few others.
