Hmph, I'll do the leveling thing again anyway, but I'd love to do it on my own character and not a premade.

Sounds like they have some real problems on that development team.

Modesty becomes a woman
All the single things that are being changed by themselves don't really bother me, the cities moving from SMV/FFR to Ashran was honestly surprising to me how many people were upset about it. (Although them trying to get get away with "That was never the plan" and then reneging on THAT when the Blizzcon slides showed up was pretty funny.)
I think it would've been cool, but it's also not a big deal to me. The Shrines in MoP were so boring and bland, and Stormwind/Orgrimmar in Cata were so lame I've given up on another Shatt/Dalaran awesome situation.
But all these things together getting cut/pushed at the last second, and garrisons being glorified trade districts instead of housing, they're really piling it on, on top of a 11 month dry spell for the game...
I don't know who can abide this? Why is the quality not rising with the huge decrease in quantity? I really can't see myself buying this expac until a few patches in if it's going to arrive so janked and incomplete.
AND it's like...how the fuck did they have the first year of MOP so solid with content, and then completely fall flat for the second? It's almost a joke how badly the content was delivered.

Looking forward to getting home tonight and starting a Death Knight. Started my first ever character early this year, was levelling a Hunter with the intention of gearing him for PvE. Got to level 62 and a few new releases distracted me and I never went back. Finally time to get back into it, Death Knight will be PvP however.
Can mount collecting be done pre 90 or should I just wait until I am 90 and somewhat geared before I bother? Thanks.

We've also been told they have the biggest team they've ever had working on WoW at the moment. Does not compute.
I'd suggest just powering to 90. You can start running some raids once you hit 80 or so, but might as well make it easier and just push to the max first.

I wonder if heads are going to roll once this expansion is out. Seems like such a clusterfuck so far.
There's definitely a lot of inner turmoil going on at Blizzard right now and it's bubbling its way up into this game.

I do wonder what's going to happen to Farahlon now.
Didn't it get removed off the map, or am I incorrect?
HarryDemeanor

Not sure. I don't remember them saying they're scrapping it but I haven't kept up in news for a while so I probably missed it.
most likely it is going to be in a patch like isle of thunder or timeless isle

And if that box art is the art for the mousepad in the CE, I'm just getting the digital version. Which would be a first. I have all of the other CE's except Wrath's.

I hope they give us a map again. I didn't like the panda-pad or Deathwing portrait we got in the last two CEs.
At least I've still got my BC mousepad.
But those Orcs are green.....

What a contrast from the previous art.
There's new login music with the new patch. Still no new screen.

Well in non-beta news, I made like 1000g (so far) off vision dust shuffling today.
Kinda peanuts for the time necessary to make and DE all those things though, but not bad in terms of return on investment (maybe 100g tops?).
If I had more bag space on my enchanter (main) it wouldn't have been as painful though.

That'd be so boring through. You don't even see rings as an equippable item. Unless it just starts as a ring and turns into something else. Who knows.

Hmm new achievement strings for Day of the Dead stuff (plus item updates to Brewfest trinkets and Fire Festival + other things.)
Possibly pushing for an October release?

I imagine a bunch of that stuff will be part of the 6.0 patch though thinking about it Ilvl 600 brewfest stuff is pretty high. I mean You don't even see ilvl 600 stuff by 96 in beta
No it's just get your free mount by logging in before Sept 30th! *wink wink*
SargerusBR
I love Pokken!
So... WoD release confirmed October?
Judging from some of the other Legendary quest items that have been datamined, you're probably right.
I want that new Raptor mount badly.
It goes with my Troll Hunter way too well.

Well, since my server sucks, and Open Raid is being quite bitch-like with garrosh runs, I'm going to be buying a carry on my server. FUUUUUUUUCK. Cannot believe it's like that right now. Any norms and flexes I can find all want 560 and want you to have killed Garrosh before.
I think I'm going to really consider transferring a few characters to a populated realm. I moved the one I'm on because of coworkers and raiding, but that broke up shortly after I got married last year. Not sure why I'm stick around. It's like a fucking ghost town.

Holy shit that Raptor mount. I don't care what I need to do for it, I'll do it. Give it to me.
From the name looks like the new pvp mount.
Oh yeah those were mine. Could I get those back? And remind me what server it was ... I just have so many characters.
I kinda wish they could keep one or two zones and a few levels in their bag until a month later or something.
Leveling and exploration is like 90% of my enjoyment of WoW and I'm always bored as fuck once I hit max level, knowing that aside from a shitty future island I won't have much pleasure until next xpac. I'd like a better flow of content.
They could for example add a small raid for let's say level 96 to keep people occupied during that time or something.
Of course it's impossible, but still.
In any case I think they should rethink the structure of their xpacs, they can never deliver and it's weird how you can burn through content in a week and then run the same dungeons/raids for months until a new one finally comes out, and then you can run this one endlessly too !
Ideally (for me) zones would be built differently (and released separately) so they have an overarching story and a big event at the end of each one requiring cooperation between players and stuff, kinda like the old ahnqiraj event in a smaller scale, or even a small raid. This would keep people involved and occupied until next zone is released, something like a month later. Basically a (way) better and shorter Thunder Isle.
There would be a great sense of common progression, with more people experiencing things at the same time, zones would feel more alive, and content would flow a lot better while allowing devs to breathe and keeping peoploe to be bored to quickly.
Would have also really worked with the "hey we're a small army invading and it's hard and long" story of WoD that will probably fall flat here btw.

I just splurged and bought a Blackfuse Bombling and Gooey Sha-ling after already not making much gold this week.
:<
The Bombling is so damn cute though! Gonna have to take it out for our Heroic SCBF attempts.
Was gonna farm gold today, but someone was always in my spot. Might mine later this morning though - bought 200+ Golden Lotus that I have to go through.

I started playing WoW again a couple of weeks ago, messing around on my more recent characters. Anyway I decided I liked the game enough to pre order the new expac.
My main character was always my death knight that I levelled at the start of WOTLK after retiring my level 70 rogue to the bin, I got up to ICC then my guild needed a healer so my DK retired.
I have just used my boost to fire him up to 90 so I can catch up on everything before the expac and get back in to my favourite character.
I am using a frost spec dual wielding, I done my first couple of heroics last night and was averaging 60k dps in these, is that acceptable?
The reason I ask is that the second run the tank done nothing but complain how awful my dps was, the top guy was doing 100k but we were moving that fast I didn't get a chance to even look at his gear.
Here is the current character I am playing, he is in that green set you get when you boost a character: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/turalyon/Skott/simple
I am aware I have no gems and enchants but this set doesnt even have gem slots and surely it's worth waiting until I have better gear to spend gold enchanting? since I have only just returned my characters are all cash poor.
