Re: Spear of Rethu nerfed :*(

It certainly gives them food for thought. Obviously it was a big hit as a visual option, but it was the balancing that ended up being an issue. The only solution I can think of that they may be able to incorporate, that could make this possible again, (and without the negative implication of double...

Re: Spear of Rethu nerfed :*(

They could have just given it the same stats as a 1-hander, boom problem solved. :| :mrgreen: Unfortunately that would then remove it from the only class it really benefits, and marginalizes it for bears/cats. What I don't get, is why there isn't a one-handed polearm class to begin with. My memory ...

Re: Spear of Rethu nerfed :*(

I hate to be the "fun hater" but they actually, more than likely, fixed this because it was causing balance issue with sub-100 sv hunters. They could wield Rethu, and a second weapon, stats and attacks and all, and still use their 2h-only spells. That's a HUGE amount of damage, and somethi...

Re: Burned out already

Hey guys, I know it doesn't solve everything, but just a heads up that in 7.1 you'll be able to unlock world quests/end game content for alts by hitting 110 if it's currently unlocked on your "main." No more having to grind Rep to open suramar dungeons or to start world quests! You'll stil...

Re: Why did they invent Talonclaw?

Having done all 3 hunter artifact quests, I find that the only one of the three that fit the theme at all was SV. I actually felt like a rugged tracker, laying traps and hunting. Even doing it in BM, i FELT like I was SURVIVING. It was fun. Meanwhile, there's very little in line of spec representati...

Re: Why did they invent Talonclaw?

I LOVE spears/polearms, and I love the idea of hunters using them. It seems silly, and I'm likely not the only person, but I've been crying to diversify the specs since LK, and specifically by making MM a shot oriented class by removing the *need* of a pet, and making SV a melee spec. Not saying I s...

I know that it won't help with the giftcard part, but i bought just a standard $20 bluray+dvd+Digital copy from walmart and came with the codes for all the goodies.

Along with what Veph said, you may look into finding a friend or friendly stranger with mining that would be willing to help! If you don't know anyone with mining, a quick /1 chat or going to a major city would almost surely net you a friendly player willing to help you out. Especially if you're alr...

Re: Blizzard Is Killing The Name 'Battle.net'

It does make sense to re-brand it to Blizzard, and it would make things clearer to new users. Honestly my guess is that they originally chose Battle.net because it was generic and had wider implications and possibilities but in practice it's never really been needed. Battle.net was released in '96 ...

Maybe I'm just picky, but I'd like to point out that Passimian appears more like a lemur (new-world, non-monkey, primate) than a monkey, but like I said: I'm kinda peculiar. :lol:

Re: Blizzard Is Killing The Name 'Battle.net'

What they're saying is that there has been some confusion (I'm not sure where/by who) in regards to the two domains being one singular entity. Something along the lines of "Well, I have an account via Blizzard for WoW, but I don't think it's a battle.net account? Do i need to make a new one to ...

I really try to stay appreciative, and as such, stay away from feeling like I'm begging, but I would LOVE tamable giraffes/longnecks and Unicorns. It seems really odd to me that Stags/Moose/Talbuks/Antelope/Yak/Oxen/etc. are all horned, hoofed creatures that we can tame and befriend, but Unicorns an...

Re: Slight Barrage graphics change

After using it for a while since I hit 90 (currently 98), I love it for trash packs and questing. My biggest problem is the insane amount of threat I pull from anything that hasn't been thunderstomped by my pet or is attacking a quest npc, which is a lot in WoD content.

Re: Falcosaurus

Personally, I think they're ugly as sin. But It'd be a terrible shame to put these in as mobs, and not make them tamable when so many people wanted them. They'd fit very well with raptors (Or one of the bird families maybe?).

Re: The "Tiers" of Pet Usefulness

That was the case for both abilities back in LK too. Still leaves the stealth open from spirit beasts. It's not much, but when coupled with the already cheap and frequent heal, it puts them above others for min/max raiding. Just glad I'm not a hardcore raider any more. Once I can, my Silver Greater ...
