The hype machine is in full swing for this update. I'm annoyed by it as well because there are still 2 full bioms to come after this one prior to full launch. Deep North and Ashlands.

I don't know your playstyle, but if you are one of those people who l8ke sneak peaks at the world you are playing in, this link will help.
Valheim World Generator
The Valheim world generator allows players to preview seeds and their map without needing to generate them in game. It also lets them find points of interest such as the trader, bosses, or crypts. Now supports Mistlands!

My body is ready. I'll probably set up a dedicated server for this.

New additions look great, though it will be a bit to experience fully as I'm just at the plains in my playthrough with my kids.
Has anyone on the public test noticed that the trader doesn't seem to sell Ymir Flesh any more? Is this intentional, or a bug on my end?

Yeah, ages ago. I've been play through with my son in prep for the new release.
I figured out what the issue is. In the new version Ymir flesh doesn't unlock until you defeat Bonemass. We'd hit kid of a corner case where my son was making an iron sledge, then we updated, then he couldn't upgrade it as the materials had vanished.

I started over. My character or save or whatever was all messed up. I kinda made everything I could make and then was stuck. Restarting fixed it.
Now I'm just stuck being 1 short of a red foozle nubbins for making coal. Instead I'm massacring everything I run across and turning meat into coal.

Seems unlikely to change, this is generally how this type of game works when they add an biome that fit into a world rather than be added to the "side" or whatever. If you have revealed all the map then you're basically fucked but if you left some parts unexplored you can generate the new biome stuff there.

Are you sure? Since via the seed generator map thingy, you can know what lands are exactly where without exploring at all. So unless the patch selectively goes in and changes your map seed, which seems complicated to pull off with everyones saves having varying area's explored or not.
I've seen video of people visiting previously discovered Mistlands. It should update to the new content, but the geometry can be slightly different and could leave hanging or bury existing structures. If you've never visited before you should be all good even in a legacy world. As far as I've read, the map generation is the same, except boss and trader locations have moved.

Not just boss and trader. Any generated location including dungeons, maypoles, ground spawns, etc have changed when using the same seed on a freshly generated map. Legacy maps will keep any already discovered locations.
Makes sense.
As far as the biome level, I just tested in an old world with previously discovered mistlands and it looks like it works fine except some trees bumped around when I first walked up.
