For people linking items from this site, I've added a new way of getting directly to an item by it's name. For example: http://wow.allakhazam.com/i/Rhok'delar,+Longbow+of+the+Ancient+Keepers or: http://wow.allakhazam.com/i/Mageweave+Cloth I've also added a lite xhtml view, which is accessible by both name and id: http://wow.allakhazam.com/ihtml?Rhok'delar,+Longbow+of+the+Ancient+Keepers For premium members, we've added most all of the spell effect based item stats (things like +spell damage, or +crit%) to the item comparison and advanced search. We've also upped the mulitpliers to 30, allowing for formulae like 30 agi = 1 crit%. In game, there was a small set of changes, I guess I should have held onto my Ribbon of Sacrifice collection ;)

World of Warcraft Client Patch 1.8.1 (2005-10-25)

Battlegrounds - Players can now turn in their old Battleground victory tokens, such as the Arathi Resource Crate, for the new Marks of Honor implemented in 1.8. These exchange quests are available on the new Horde Warbringers and Alliance Brigadier Generals, respectively. - Certain geometry exploits in Arathi Basin have been fixed. Items - The tooltip on the Lightforged Blade has been updated to correctly show its minimum level requirement of 47 and its Bind on Acquire status. User Interface - Fonts should once again display properly. - Fixed bug preventing UI scripting error messages from wrapping. - Fixed per-character saved variables for non-English character names.
