Alright thanks, rocket farm it is! Best of luck to wowgaf on that one... drop rate is soooo low.
Hah, that must have been a popular thing to do for GMs at the time, I had my very own encounter with a chicken-summoning GM back in 2008...
I don't remember what the ticket was but the guy was really cool, teleported me to hills above Shatt, summoned chickens and then put a leper gnome costume on me so 'they' would not recognize me
A few months later WotLK came out, ticket wait time ballooned to literally days and the fun was over

I've never given a shit about holiday events but that love rocket some of you have been talking about looks amazing...

Now I want this and it's apparently impossible to get.

I got it on my first run today on an alt no less
Please don't join one of the Tusk runs. I'd hate to see someone else get them after 10 runs while I'm here having done 330 runs in a weekend without seeing shit.

It's now canon.Saw this on Legion alpha, made me chuckle.
Next alpha update will now restrict all weapons to Hunters only.
Huh, that's pretty cool.
Can't say I've ever seen a GM, but I have got to see some of the crazy stuff they'll pull out.
Like when they were releasing S3 Arena gear on the PTR back in BC, Area 52 was lagging like crazy, so the GMs summoned Raid Bosses to kill everyone and cut down on the lag. Crazy stuff.

Haha, that's pretty good.
I asked a GM to appear to me back in Wrath when I wanted to restore some of the D2 I'd deleted... He did, and I was happy! Refused to duel me, though.
It's very incomplete on alpha so I can't really test it and quell your fears. It looks like followers can give you a buff (like garrison ability) when you assign them to a zone, but it also looks like there are follower missions. I can't actually do any of them

Ok guys I've killed Deathwing like 5 times for Chromatic Champion on Ysera and Nozdormu and it isn't working. I stand on the platform and let him smack them down to half health and then kill him and its not working? Worked on Kalecgos and Alex...
davepoobond
you can't put a price on sparks
i wouldnt be surprised if they are some hybrid between naval shipyards and the regular follower missions.

Turns out I can only do the daily dungeon on three of my six toons, which is fine with me. It's enough chances a day. I am also 29K shy of the Corrupted Dreadwing and Revered with 2 out of 3 Tanaan Diplomat Factions. If Hexweave Bags maintain their price and I can keep up output without really playing the Mage, I may be able to buy a Heroic run through Archi for a Moose.

Hopefully no one notices I'm just sitting in the corner afk in this group grinding out lucky charms in Arak while playing SF V
You have to let the tentacles impale and do dmg to each of the four aspects before you kill everything on each platform. You are killing everything too quick.

Got my Defending Champion this morning after a few days of trying on my level 80 hunter who had the Arena Grand Master. Luckily I think I hopped onto an RP realm where no one else was there.
Now I just need the Darkmoon one to match, as I believe that's the only 'hole' in my heirloom collection outside of a couple Garrosh heirlooms (which don't show up as missing if you don't have them anyway). Think I'm missing the shields and the offhand tome - though they're arguably the least useful. Shield woulda been nice for transmog though.

Oh God no. Ships dying is one of the worst ideas Blizz has ever had. It's like they played Fire Emblem and thought that was cool but forgot you had way more control over an FE unit then a ship where life, death, time and tons of resources are decided on the whim of the dice roll
I like this! Back when you had the mount in your bags taking up space. Imagine that today.
and that gold amount

They would. People forget all the small QoL changes over a decade
Remember the time where priests had to use their wands instead of most of their spells because they were just crap?
Or how about mages always running out of mana and needing to use their free water?
Ret paladins simply autoattacking with judgment spam?
Or when flightpaths weren't connected to each other?
Or when you first mount was at lvl 40? Remember running all through STV and the Barrens ON FOOT?
But Blizzard should patch all those little things right
Yea it's serious rose-colored goggles. The main reason things were so "wow" back then is the new factor
They should really remove the tank and healer requirement from Crown Chemical. It's not like they even matter.
Or my 4 totems in my bags and my ankhs.

Remember when it was super hard to get the gold for your mount unless you got a lucky epic drop?
Right... spell reagents. How I do not miss any of them. Someone should make a list of all small QoL changes made in the past decade lol. Would be quite a list.
I farmed the badlands elementals so much (after lvl 40) to get my mount and also mined mithril like crazy and tried to sell that on the AH.
Kept farming and I got my first epic in either Tyrs Hand or just random in EPL (after dinging 60 no less) which I hoped to sell for crazy amounts (at least so I could get 1k for epic mounts)... problem was it was the Green Tower which was proably worth less than any other epic back then... Ahh well

I remember not getting a mount until I was like level 45 or so, gold was just so hard to come by back then. I wound up crafting Phantom Blades and selling them on the AH, only to have some jerk start undercutting everyone by like 10g and killing the market.
Haha, yeah, I was about lvl 43 or something of the likes when I got my mount and it was pretty early.
I actually grinded to PvP rank 11 for epic mount instead of saving up a 1000g for epic mounts because that seemed easier than grinding out the gold (for referance Tyrs Hands was the easiest back then but i remember that I got ~4g gold loot from the each Emerald dragon killed with almost a full raid group which seemed like good gold back then) .
I was lousy at the AH game back then though. I remeber when I sold my first stack of Linen Cloth for 36s and was blown away that people paid so much more for it than the vendors

I'll probably get my Mythic Archimonde mount before Mimiron's Head at this rate. And I already know I'm not even slated to get the first one.
Forgot about that lmao. Vanilla servers nao!

You only need Revered for Tanaan Diplomat, for some reason I got it into my head that I needed Exalted with Order of the Awakened, Vol'Jin's Headhunters and the Saberstalkers. I have Revered with Order and Vol'Jin's, and I'm just 5040 rep points away from Revered with the Saberstalkers. So that's one weekly and three Medallions (trade post boost) away from Draenor Flying?
about everything
At least 8 stacks of arrows or bullets and shells
shiny fish scales
I had four main heals I used as a resto shaman in TBC - Chain Heal rank 1, rank 2, rank 4, rank 5. I probably used each of those more often than I used Lesser or Greater Healing Wave.
Then, I got to bind a bunch of other skills 4 times for pvp, earth shock rank 1 on both target and focus for a low-cost interrupt, earth shock max rank on target and focus for a burst interrupt, etc.
I loved those days, but there was some real inconvenient shenanigans going on if you wanted to maximize your play.
Also, we got to chug mana potions on cd.
I didn't use half the survival skills on my rogue. These reagents weren't cheap yo.
