Few questions before expansion...

[Sorcerie]

I just wanted to touch base with some of the STS staff real quick regarding the expansion which is to drop later today...

First, will you guys be closing all elite maps until the expansion elite maps hit like you have done in the past? Or will both be available right of the bat? I would like to know because I'm currently on the never ending quest to create Glintstone armor and I would like to know if this will be deterred in anyway.

Second, if elites will be open right off the bat will the new bosses be dropping any new awesome elite loot to revive the current corpse that is elite farming?

Third, if elites won't be open right off the bat, how long can we expect them to be available again?

Fourth, will the new maps offer the most XP for the expansion or will the tride and true wt4 be the go to as per usual?

Any feedback would be great and appreciated.

Thank you~
