So? The original plan was for Worgen to have a mount as well. Just because Blizzard can get away with having them run everywhere means they can also screw over Goblins?

You sure about that? Does running wild work in instances where normal mounts would not? I surely hope you aren't crying cause Horde didn't get MORE.

They can run wherever one would normally mount. I'm bitching because Goblins have only two mounts when every other race has seven. Not only that, but the mounts that Goblins have are halfassed.

Worgen got gypped out of their mount as well, having zero, but I doubt I'll ever roll one so it affects me less. I would have liked to see them on their original mount.

The problem is, the mount collector completionists would freak the fuck out if you gave one side a full suite of mounts over the other, as it would be that much easier to get the acheivements. It's happened before.
So give Worgen the proper mount that was originally planned. This "Running Wild" thing is crap as well. Sentient cows can ride a lizard but for some reason sentient wolves just run everywhere? C'mon now.

Sounds like a bit of a contradiction to me. All the other races do NOT have seven. Goblins have more mounts than at least one other race. Be glad that Horde have plenty other advantages so the lack of a few extra mounts shouldn't be an issue anyway. Just ride your scorpion into the sunset.

No wonder you have the tag you do. Worgen were supposed to have a mount, but because of Blizzard's corner cutting they now run instead. So you are using their halfassed effort in one instance to justify their halfassed effort in another.

You can enjoy BOTH my tag and your two additional mounts. Life is good. And shouldn't it be 'The Not Work Safe One'? Come on if you are going to make fun do it right. Very creative by the way. ;o)

Wasn't there concept art of this crazy half-wolf, half-raven thing the Worgen were supposed to have as a mount? The Goblin mount situation is very disappointing as well. Once again, Blizzard maintaining their ying/yang balance. "Alright, so the awesome scorpion and goofy lion mounts are in, now we need to do something half-assed so our fans (lawl) don't get used to so many good things, I know, no Worgen mounts and don't even bother making different colored Goblin trikes. Also, we need to recycle something, how about that phoenix mount, do something with that as well, make it purple".

Download questhelper and it won't work, it loads to 13% and sits there. Anyone had this issue?

is there any benefit to having that mod when the internal UI has a quest tracker now?
 
Am just now waiting for the new zones on my main. Got 23 dailies ready to hand in and just doing the 2 new ones in SW daily while I wait till next week. My try and organise a whirlwind run through all the wotlk raids this week as a farewell tour but not sure.
Wondering if they are going to be having maintenance next week or not. Also anyone else on oceanic servers dreading the queues trying to get on as cataclysm switch been turned on at 7pm (pretty much our prime time). Think I'll get on a few hours early and just idle it away somewhere in NR so I can turn in dailies as soon as possible.

It's supposed to calculate the most efficient route. I was using WoW-Pro, which uses handmade guides but those are a bit out of date now. I'm actually having more fun just doing quests the default way...they are much more organized and streamlined now.

Dumb question, where are the dailies? I was in Ironforge earlier and didn't see any.

Cool! I'm off work in a few hours so I can invite you then. Or just do a /who defense and bug someone in the guild to invite you. Just mention you're from GAF and your username. :D

Is Seal of Righteousness the only Seal i'll use while lvling/soloing as a ret paladin? Seal of Truth seems like its only good for instances with its dots.

Rightousness is best for Ret soloing. It's got a cleave and does its damage up front. Truth is for tanking and Ret usage on boss fights.

I still hate the idea of Truth. Not to mention seal damage seems pathetic at 80 (although apparently Ret scales off the charts at 85)

I'm leveling a Human Warlock because I've always wanted to try one out (my main is a Rogue) and have made it to 37 pretty quick. The changes to the zones are pretty decent.

Anyways my question is, I'm using Demo to quest with and quite enjoy it. The felguard is great. However in instances my dps is garbage no matter which spec (Affliction and Destruction also) I seem to use. Single target on bosses is great and large groups are great too. It just seems like all of the mobs go down too fast for me to get either my dots up of a couple decent casts off. Is this normal? I've done quite a few dungeons so my gear isn't a problem. I've made macros to keep my dots up also. Reading over the talent trees, it seems like the specs at low levels buff one spell and give you some utilities for healing or mana.

Any advice?

Eh, it's basically Corruption, so I'm fine with it. I'm just glad that Paladins no longer rely on Seal of Casino.

What I really miss is Seal of Blood. :(

I hated Vengenance too, how it sucked terribly on trash and would fall off of bosses.

Well who used Veng on trash? That's what Casino/Cleave was for! I never really worried about it though. I'm Prot 95% of the time so DPS isn't my main concern as long as mobs stick to me.

Aww. I ordered WoW off Amazon but bought it digitally because I realized it wouldn't arrive in time for me to use and upgrade from during the BC/WotLK sale. Now I have an extra WoW code ]:
 
Moonkins are like walking bird beasts of annihilation now wtf happened. Before I know it I got spotlights shining on me, trees pounding on me and dots ticking down like it's a fucking waterfall in the middle of my screen.

You should be using the AoE spell (Rain of Fire) on 3+ groups. I think dots are a waste of time until you have soul swap.

Yea after a bit of reading I have come to the conclusion to stick with Demo and felguard and just spam rain of fire.
 
Can someone post that supposed leak of Blizzard's planned expansions for WoW that's been around for a while? MMO-Champion has a new supposedly leaked time line up for all Blizzard's products. Interesting...But can someone post that older one for me please?

Someone new is supposed to pick it up though. Questhelper Reloaded is/will be the name I think.

For now, I wouldn't bother trying to use it.

With the current "QuestHelper" already available, you should not need an addon.

I think I've used Soul Swap once and I'm almos 71. Is it really that useful?

They really nerfed the ever living fuck out of exp from old world dungeons. It's kinda silly that the quests now seem to give less than half of a normal outdoors quest. I understand why they did it; because people would spam every single dungeon then bitch about how it was messing up their zone exp :lol but that doesn't make it less silly. I thought it was a nice option.

It's great. With the glyphed swap there's no ramp up time when swapping targets, dots are all up and ticking straight away AND they stay on the previous one. Don't really use it outside of instances though, mobs die too fast.

Having to switch all the time was just annoying to me. I guess I just don't much care for Seals in general.

thanks :D

So new troll starting zone questline was pretty cool. I like how it baisically gave you a tutorial on how to do an instance boss without actually making you do one. They had a tank, DPS, healer and you were the crowd control. it was pretty cool.

Also new Org looks fucking badass

I just think back to when seals lasted about 15 seconds and had to be recast after every judgement and feel better about their current state.
