You should check out the fire mages changes. I think they got hit even worse than my poor hunter.

They gutted Combustion

But I don't understand what they're doing with molten armor/critical mass. It seems all the mage specs are getting 15% base crit bonus, and Fire mages are getting another 15% and another 10% from your crit values from armor?

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
Odyn's stormforged spear hits me for 4.5 million damage x_x.

Man, AK work orders and catch up mechanics definitely aren't working correctly. Just hit 110 on my Paladin, and my first work order is 2 days 23 hours. My Shaman is AK 4 and my work orders are 2 days 10 hours (I know because I forgot to put in the order until right now when I decided to check). There's no reason I can think of at all that my new char would have longer work order time than my older alt.

Fuck yeah, my alt shaman has the lava lash legendary. With buffs to lava lash and the legendary....I'm happy.

Even though we only use lava lash for maelstorm dump, it's looks better...a little.

I mostly like that legendary because of the reference in it, its blatant One Piece reference which is awesome.

I know, not on the topic of what you said....but I just felt like quoting you since you mentioned it :D

I don't think you're supposed to go really far, I think it does more dmg that way also...kinda like the ursoc charge in EN where if you go the set distance the dmg is minimal but if you go to far or to close it can kill several people in the raid of the person who got the charge.

http://www.wowhead.com/item=137084/akainus-absolute-justice#comments Yep few other anime references in WoW but some of the coincidental like the red flying disc being Goku's mount from DB even though the flying cloud is a common thing for some myths.


this is kinda offtopic but, how do you edit a existing post but also add new quotes? just asking so I do less of new posts and can compile into one...never did figure that out on this forum.

Oh, turns out we lost a trial when the bots got banned. He was a really good monk, too.

Wonder if those two could be related! Hah, though I guess only a small portion of people were using rotation bots.

Anyway, archaeology has been a pretty hard miss so far this expansion, but the current quest definitely takes the cake. You go to an area in Val'Sharah, click a thing on the ground that turns into smaller things that you click to loot 3-5 fragments. Sometimes they spawn adds that die in 1 hit that drop.. 3-5 fragments. To finish? You need 500 total frags... What is the point of this? I can't believe they wasted so much time making 12 (13?) different random archaeology quests to go up every 2 weeks and after 6 of them so far not a single one has been better than just base archaeology. Effort went into making this system that is in every way worse than what we had before. Really a huge disappointment.

I like that this year's anniversary event has a tiny bit more to do than the previous years. Also, everyone should grab both the pet and the Inflatable Thunderfury, the first as a collectible, the second for a Feat of Strength.

The WoW community getting offended because this item exists is both hilarious and sad at the same time.

Haven't read the official forums, but I'm guessing some people are saying it trivializes domestic abuse?

It'll probably be altered before it goes live, considering Blizzard has changed stuff before that has ruffled feathers.

Just curious, how does the game handle something like this with the boss in Mogu'shan Vaults that does the arrow attack that pins you and you're stunned forever until broken out. Since I've tried that fight a bunch and would get pinned and have to wait until I slowly died if this legendary was equipped it heals way more than he damages. Pinned forever? I suppose his berserk status might end up killing you? I don't know how much damage that does.

But I can see it somehow being a problem in specific circumstances. Amusing problems but still potential issues.

I wish they'd go back and make encounters solo-able more quickly or allow them to be skipped on a rare occasion (like the healing fight in ICC).

I'd given up on Unholy in favor of Frost, but I have gotten a lot more crit/haste gear so I was curious if Unholy had squeaked ahead on single target. Last night the plan was to test out Unholy's single target on Heroic Nythendra and then go Frost for Ursoc, for science. The only problem was that I had an Unholy specific legendary but not a Frost one - that would make the science unfair. The game recognized this and Nythendra gave me my fourth legendary, the Koltira belt for Frost. I now completely destroy my Unholy single target DPS so I guess I can safely bench that spec.

Also quite funny what four 910 legendaries does to your bag ilvl. 885 now.

Because that wasn't enough I also bonus rolled an 880 seed pod on Nythendra. Even though it's a 'DPS' trinket I really wanted it for Blood. Should be extremely useful in Karazhan.

I guess this takes away the sting of getting 880 bracers out of my mythic cache four weeks in a row. All of them mastery crap.

I'm either going to re-roll arms if we can find a new tank or re-roll to my pally tank I'm levelling through the Broken Isles now. We have three prot warriors in the guild and we just need tank variety so badly.

And we wiped on Elerethe last night on 2m health. People keep making stupid silly mistakes and I'm losing my mind.

Yea it's def not right, my third alt takes longer than my second, and my fourth alt takes the same time as my third. My second alt takes the least amount of time (currently at AK 14)

You know you can just run when he shoots into the air bypassing that mechanic completely.

Even if the realm transfer didn't include a name change you could just make sure there is already a character on that server with the name and it'd let you rename it. Last and only time I ever realm changed a character was a scroll of resurrection in MoP, though.

Though tbf I could have worded it better.

It's early! Lol.

But yea like he said just make a toon on the server you want to transfer to with the name and another with your current toon's name then transfer. It'll ask you to rename your character, delete the one with the band you want; name your character.

Done. That's what I do

Ever since they openly admitted to not being able to get Kirin Tor emissary to pop at the rate they want I have lost all faith in any sort of convoluted systems they have in place. It seems like the first work order you put in isn't really changed by the mechanic but subsequent ones will go on the shorter work order
maybe
. They make everything too complicated for themselves and it fucks up on a regular basis.

Question: why did my warlock at 100 instantly have all the broken isle flight points but my alt warrior did not?
Click to expand...

Half my characters had all (or like, 90% of the flight paths) and half didn't. My main did which made the first few days of the expansion easier for me than some of my fellow guildies. Lol

I'd like to know what's up, too.

I can see Odyn becoming a faction leader for Stormforged/Vrykul. Would also be a fun way to finally introduce subraces.

This also got me thinking about the Blizzcon comment about Naga factions, maybe it's less of a non-answer than we thought. I'd imagine if they are going to make Naga playable it'll be in the N'Zoth-themed expansion we're all expecting.

As for which race would be for which faction, I could easily come up with some bullshit for either one. Naga have more in common with Blood Elves but still share a lot of history with Night Elves. Vrykul have similar values and culture to Orcs and Tauren but they are the direct ancestors of Humans.
