don't think you can get past the first boss on your own in BT.

You can also fly into the cave on your mount and at just the right time briefly detach the ethernet cable from your computer and then plug it back in before you DC. The lag extends your flight time and it's possible to fly to the ledge. Can't remember if have to unplug once or twice. That's how I did it
don't tell anyone

So I found out last night that the Heroic healing cloak that has an On Use effect that gives you +1,000 Spirit for an hour (acts like an elixir) only had two charges that do not regenerate. What the hell Blizzard? If you want people to still buy stuff from Alchemists then make it slightly inferior to what they offer, but it was nice for when just running Heroics.
Also sorry no link for it, most WoW sites are blocked at work.

As a Night Elf you can just die under the ledge, fly back in spirit form and rez on top of the ledge, easy peezy. Feel free to tell everyone that's how I did it!

That's exactly what I did to tame Jade Fang, and to kill him later and get the pet.
Got revered with Order of the Cloud Serpent. Also managed to get 2nd place in the race, despite not knowing any real shortcuts.
Also started messing around with the Tillers. Might help in getting my cooking up a bit...
From what I've read so far, I think it just opens up some more quests to go awaken some more guys. Not sure what else gets added.
It'd be so cool to tame that with the sword...but it's Lv91 I think.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Yup, I pretty much confirmed that as-well!
edit: Also, I've gone to the Cloud Serpent race every day since launch and they haven't given me the opportunity to race a single time. I've been exalted with them since day three, so I have no idea what the fuck is going on. Mal'Ganis US.
Sigh... another bug? I got this achievement, but it's not showing up in my list of feats of strength:
It should only show up in the Professions -> Fishing section.
I finished Glory of the Firelands Raider last night too. Went in and got a quick Alysrazor kill, lol.
I need to go kill heroic Omnotron and Nef for my Cataclysm raider meta achievement still. :<

But whryyyyyy, all FoS should show up in the FoS-page! :_:Weird. Right after I hit revered, I had to go talk to somebody and my Serpent grew up a little.
Then I had to do a few quests riding around on my Serpent to get the lay of the racetrack, then I got the racing quest.
Then I got some more dailies where I beat up on some of the other racers. lol
Got our good dps online last night and one shot Feng, felt good! Tried 3 healing (10 man) Gara'jal and hit enrage with him at 23%, tried 2 healing and were keeping up with the enrage, but we wiped and raid time ended. Going to get him tonight I think.
There should be two more guys you can awaken, but I don't know if that adds more dailies.

Hey guys. I know I shouldn't probably be doing this here, but I was wondering if anyone could toss me a scroll of res? My friend is currently at work and can't do it for me. My e-mail is, spjim87@gmail.com
Much appreciated!

Downed the first boss in Mogu'Shan after trying it out once :lol Healing Mushrooms needs a nerf (60k hps). The two other resto druids who didn't use mushrooms had 40k hps.
Finally finished the second leveling zone. I'm about a quarter through level 88 now. I think the second zone was a lot worse then the first one. Some of the writing was good, but after awhile I got tired of doing stupid farming and fetch quests.
I am suprised Green Tea Leaves still sell for 70g a stack. I can't step two feet anywhere without running into a node. I must have made thousands of gold selling the stuff so far.

Accept my friend request right now. (when you can)
I'm a little bothered by the reputation changes, actually. Don't they mean it'll take less time to level from Revered to Exalted than it will to get from Honored to Revered? I'm not particularly comfortable with that, I think it should be a strict increase in requirements per rep level.
Actually, as a small aside: I suspect that's why they doubled the rep gain rather than halved the distance to Exalted, to make that fact slightly less obvious!

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
I'm curious how the rep change will effect quests that give you a huge one-time boost to get you from hated to neutral. Will you just immediately hit exalted with netherwing, for example, if you bothered to do that introductory questline on a new character?

Modesty becomes a woman
I thought it goes without saying that it will only effect MoP reputations? Anything pre-mop is severely nerfed anyway.
I liked the mellower feel of that zone. It's worth pointing out that it and Krasarang Wilds are inherently linked in a few places; there's a climactic chain once you've done both zones.

Still not as good as Wrathgate.

Warrior dinged 87 today. Maxed out his mining and JC. Getting recipes is gonna be a pain though. Limited by the daily, or forced to farm on an alt. Will probably let him sit for a few days at least to build up rest again. Leveling is slow enough as prot. You really need to be fighting 3+ mobs at once to be efficient, which can be difficult in some spots to round up. I do dungeons, but I'm not willing to really grind them (yet).
Also found out that there's an account meta achieve for getting all professions maxed after you hit the one for 5.

I dunno, the announcement made no mention of being mists-specific. It's presented as a change to overall reputation mechanics.

5.1 PTR Coming Soon.
Sounds like some good stuff. Doesn't seem like there will be new raids in 5.1, similar to 4.1, but it seems the turnaround is also going to be fairly quick.
Brawler's Guilds sounds sort of like an offshoot of the Proving Grounds feature. (I'm a DK and can switch to blood, GG - unless they have something special in store.)

What talents did you choose for your warrior? Also..I barely can find enough ats to max JC =S
Can you post the entire post on MMO Champion? Stuck behind a firewall at work.

I assume there aren't patch notes yet, but what changes/additions can we expect with 5.1?

Pretty sure this is it: http://www.wowhead.com/talent#wh9|Gbr
May have messed up on one of the major glyphs though (not sure if I had Hoarse Voice or something else.) Minor glyphs are all cosmetic (except for Bloody Healing which may as well be with the opportunities you'd have to use bandages, especially as a tank.)
There's a lot of situational stuff though. On the right encounter, Double Time could be very good. Warbringer to an extent, but it's more PvP oriented. I like Juggernaut since it's just sort of a vanilla, generally good in every situation glyph.
Second Wind is nice because I'm lazy and is a nice buffer to prevent you from dying when you're in that execute range. Impending Victory I think is sort of meh at best - maybe something you pick up when soloing old raids. Enraged Regeneration is kind of expensive for what it gives you (as prot where you have multiple other abilities with high costs which could be used to mitigate damage when you're going to be healed anyway.)
Tier 3, Staggering Shout is really a PvP talent more intended to be used in combination with Hamstring or someone else's slow. Completely inferior to Piercing Howl in most kiting situations, especially because of the long CD. Disrupting Shout is nice just to have another interrupt and is probably the best general use talent for a main tank or 5-man tank, but dealing with kiting adds, you definitely want Piercing Howl.
Shockwave is the undeniable best talent for Prot in the 4th tier. Was a signature skill before and is still very, very good. AoE stun on adds/trash mitigates a ton of damage, and useful for interrupting "protected" spells that you can't otherwise get. It would be tempting to get Bladestorm or Dragon Roar for the lulz though. I'm kinda curious about which is supposed to be better for DPS, especially since Dragon Roar is new - haven't seen it in action yet.
For the 5th tier I picked Safeguard because I think it's probably the best general use talent. Mass Spell reflection can obviously be very good as a raid cooldown in the right scenario and you'd pick it there. Safeguard and Vigilance you'd probably alternate between depending on the fight, how damage is dealt, and if there is tank swapping.
Not sure what I want for the level 90 talent yet since I'm not there. Storm Bolt is nice as it's kind of like a second Heroic Throw with the bonus of stunning. Ranged attacks are always good on a melee character. Avatar seems pretty damn good as well as a general use big cooldown. Definitely better for the DPS specs, but at the very least, the extra rage generation will let you get off a lot more of your defensive abilities. I think Bloodbath is really the odd one out here. As a tank, I'm not gonna care about the extra bleed damage, and if I wanted a slow, I would have picked up Piercing Howl already, which has no CD, and only costs a measly 10 rage. It may be useful for one of the DPS specs (or in PvP) if they have passives that play off bleeds. Still pretty trash compared to the other choices though - it probably needs a rework.

Didn't mean for this to go into a full analysis of Warrior talents when I started typing, but there you go. Not going to analyze the glyphs, but I like the mobility you get from Heroic Leap and Death From Above lets me leap more. Doing things like Charge, Thunderclap, Cleave, Leap, Heroic Throw, Charge (or some variation of that order) into a pack is what makes Warrior tanking fun to me.
And I just hit 87 as mentioned, so I haven't really had time to use with the banners yet aside from some toying around, but they're pretty cool. They're all independent CDs, so you can chain them one after the other if you want to. The fact that you can Intervene to them is pretty fun as well, giving you another nice mobility tool. I can definitely see some uses just for that in encounters where you preemptively place the banner and intervene to it after a knockback or something.
They said it was going to be fast, but wow.
I hope the ptr takes at least 2 months. Any faster than that would be too fast honestly (can't believe I'm saying that). There's already so much to do its kind of overwhelming.
But... i thought some GAF members said they were burning through content too fast. Who am i to believe?

When do you get Titan's grip now with warriors?
Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
It's just a proving ground - the idea is to teach people how to play Warcraft on a dungeon/raid level without actually forcing them into raids.

So I've been having issues back and forth with Bliz customer service on getting my SoR server/faction xfer right all week. Unfortunately, at this point I have to wait another 3 days before they can give me a faction change. I bought MoP last night and am really itching to play it.
Do you guys think I'll really screw things up if I start MoP content as alliance and switch to horde halfway through on my way from 85-90? Tonight is my only night to play this weekend so I'd love to try the new stuff, but don't want to compromise faction/story kind of stuff.
BTW - Pet Battles are incredible.
