i dunno if it was like this before, but with the new draw distance options, flying over the old zones and seeing the land stretch out into the horizon
being able to see mount hyjal in the distance looming over you when you're in the barrens
that said, i'm not sure about this but i swear back in vanilla the terrain itself (not just objects) cast shadows, which don't seem to be there with the new shadow technology? or i could just be imagining things.

DK is pretty much perfect. I can't speak much to Blood yet, but Frost and Unholy are quite possibly the best playing specs in the game IMO. Both of them feel fantastic and really nail their respective class fantasy. The new animations and sound effects are amazing as well.
Yeah, definitely more than a new model. He's had official art of his regular undead model before.

I'm confused, do you not like seeing mount hyjal off in the distance?
no those are nostalgic tear in my eye faces, it slays
Worth remembering that it's possible it'll be upgradable later

welllll if you are REALLY a cheapstake, the best alternative is farming something something and selling something something..
provided you people on your server still want//need it, you're looking at a 100k gold profit (depends on the current value, but still) for a 3 hours committment (less if you get lucky, but provided the area is not camped you get enough somethingsomething x10) :X
Still...
In 3 months of garrison + other stuff, i've made a lot of money...
Had I known of this other method, I'd have gone HELLUVA faster..
oh welllll :|
Honestly i cannot see myself using gold for subscription, rather I will use the money to get pets and mount as usual....
btw is there a site like warctaft pet to help you identify the mounts you're missing and a quick link to how to get them?
I used to use the armory, but lately i've found it quite clunky...

word, word.
Thanks. A little overwhelmed by that thread though. I don't have the right mind or ability to put something custom together, at least not this summer. I'd be alright paying a small premium to get the same performance without needing to assemble much myself.

Picked the game back up after 10 years since last playing. Fell in love with it again when I accidentally ran into a demon invasion at the crossroads at level 31. Seeing all of these other players flying to to fight it off brought me back to the days of 40 man raids.
That was awesome! So I have nether shards now. Do I have to have Legion Preordered to use them? Or do I have to be a higher level? Because the Illidari camp or whatever at Orgrimmar where I'm supposed to be able to spend them is just a blank empty spot. Nothing is there for me.

All Invasion zones are cross server I believe.
You have to complete the broken shores chain which is only available at level 100.

I am now torn between my class selection and leveling order for Legion.
I have been maining Lock since I came back, so I am 100% on playing that.
Going Shaman for my healer, but it is between DK and DH for tank class.
DK is so strong right now, but DH just feels fresh with all of the mobility.

The lag spikes are so bad in invasions.
Yesterday was fine tho.

You do not need Legion preordered to use them.The vendor that you mentioned should have some stuff available for purchase, i.e. the Fel Bat at least for your level.
Man, that dreadlord event is all kinds of dumb fun. Noticed a lot of people were getting flagged for pvp this afternoon and from then on I flew around atop the rooftops above the SW auction house and would try kill anyone whose name would turn red. It's a dick move but it's a short time event so I'm getting the most out of it while I can. 
Eventually you notice how people are sneakily getting their debuff stacks down (corrupting other players) and I thought it'd be amusing to thunderstorm them off their safe spot ( a roof mainly) into the guards below but the only time I tried it they didn't get knocked away.
Just before bed I managed to get my debuff stack down from 9 to 0 (so I'm a full strength dreadlord when I turn) and it was amazing how fun it was crushing everyone with the skills you're given. It's a griefer's wet dream. Shame it only lasts a minute.

Well there you go! Do we know if these vendors will still be around later after the legion launch? I definitely won't be level 100 by then lol.
Well the problem is that there is no vendor... just a lot of people gathered around what looks like nothing to me. Even had a guy show me where it's supposed to be.

So why would anyone waste time upgrading these event weapons when artifacts are literally right around the corner?

The vendor is in the areas you do invasions then. They're usually near the area you protect.

You need to have done the new scenario to see the vendors, which requires lvl 100. At least the vendors in Org/SW require it anyway, not sure about any others.
yup, pretty much why I dont (well if I get a fel thingie in a bag I use it of course)
Well, in Legion I dont believe any rings have mains stats. Still def not worth it since ilvl 850 is equal to normal mode raid.
The one thing the new even reinforces is the fact that the general population is dumber than a bag of rocks and could never do any sort of pve content that could actually kill them/requires any amount of movement.
Every time I get harbinger drel'nathar people don't bother removing his buff, run away from the eye and stay in for the big explosion.

Can sympathize with the Eye spell if it's peoples first invasion, it's the same visual as the Shadow Nova and when you see purple splotches on the floor your first instinct is to get out of it.
But it's also apparent people just don't give a fuck and are happy with paying hundreds of gold in repairs instead of moving a bit every 20 seconds or whatever.

Thanks guys. I'll check near Crossroads to see I can see any vendors there.

Unlike voljin, who gets one shot by a nameless felgaurd just like the 100's you killed before.
What a piece of shit.
Man the horde came off looking so bad, I feel like I should faction change.
Probably just getting transmogs, plus them being at 100 so quickly is a huge benefit.
Sylvannas will Make Horde Great Again.
My only level 100 is my NE DH on Lightbringer NA.

If people are still doing any on US/Horde i will super appreciate it the people who do paid runs on my server want 40-50k and i can't afford that much i don't think i have ever had 40k in my entire WOW career at one time.

That and so much for 'victory or death'.
Does horde shouldn't even be allowed to say lok'thar ogar anymore.

It's not even that he died, it's how he died.
Vol'jin's supposed to be some badass shadow hunter, he chats so much shit to people acting like a tough guy, but all he's done i kill some level 12 mob in the troll starting area get wrecked by a random rogue in a scenario and then get fucked by a random no name felguard, one of billions you aoe'd done a second before.
Voljin is the personification of chat shit, get hit.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
The orcs at the broken shore were certainly free to die in vain while the other Horde races who don't ascribe to that kind of absolutism retreated from an unwinnable battle. Maybe then their angsty ghosts could haunt the rest of the horde and call them cowards for not also having decided to enjoy a meaningless death.

And Blizzard doing the "she is the key for our salvation" plot, again.
I mean Voljin died because plot demanded it and take probably the only prominent horde female to do the same story they did in other Blizzard games, again.

I actually liked how
went out, it made it look like a hopeless battle where even "trash mobs" are out for blood, hell
is technically also taken out by trah mobs before Gul Dan finishes him off.
I think
got the worst deal actually, dude went out like a bitch
