Re: General BlizzCon discussion

Someone—and I can't remember who, but it was on twitter somewhere—said that you can start working on some of the prerequisites to the new subraces/allies now. I don't think they gave any more specifics than that, but I would assume it would be exalted with the appropriate factions and/or completion ...

Re: General BlizzCon discussion

For those of you who were having problems finding the VoDs earlier, they're up now—they took way longer about it than they should have, but both the What's Next and Deep Dive can be watched if you missed it in real time. Many panels are also available via youtube, though obviously not through offici...

Re: General BlizzCon discussion

Man, this... this feels like cataclysm all over again, except I was excited about cataclysm and I can feel nothing but emptiness for this. Maybe it was just the presentation, but nothing so far feels worth the $60-80 the CE will likely be. I mean... I'll probably do it anyway, but ugh. More pointles...

Re: Hidden appearances for hunter artifact - abit dissapoint

Personally I’ve ignored artifact appearances on pretty much all my characters and just transmogged to whatever matched my gear. I wasn’t sure how many do that. Probably quite a few because regardless of the weapon looks, it’s restrictive to be stuck to transmogs that match them. Hmm, let me think a...

Re: Hidden appearances for hunter artifact - abit dissapoint

There's a LOT of disparity in the hidden appearances, for good and ill. The Retribution one is fantastic from a wow history nerd perspective, but AWFUL in practice, and it's the most convoluted of all of them by far. The BM one is the simplest, with no rep requirement on its purchase. Most fall some...

Re: BlizzCon competition

Like peanutbuttercup, I really want more variety in water walking mounts. I have both of the ones that are in-game already, but I don't really like how many of my alts look on them, and water walking is such a big thing when flying isn't available—it's not the be all end all of mounts USUALLY, but i...

Re: Possible subraces datamined

The nightborne one doesn't make sense to me unless they're going to go through and re-rig them—they've stated multiple times that they're not happy with the silhouette confusion that pandaren cause, being on both factions. Nightborne use Night Elf animations nearly exclusively, and share an incredib...

Re: The Future of WoW - what do you want?

I want ranged survival back. I want them to turn off CRZ in new content on PvP servers, and keep it off—group finder solves any "oh but nobody's around to kill this big bad with me qq" issues, and the faction balance between servers is a delicate thing on PvP servers. I want the four "...

Re: Losing Hati in Next Expansion

My hunter's only been played for about an hour since the patch, to help a friend through the Stormheim invasion yesterday. I'm reasonably certain Hati wasn't involved in 50% of the fights in that <hour. On the flip side (and this might be a mac-only issue, and it's purely aesthetic), my hati mog (GS...

Re: Panthara taming puzzle-solving thread

They don't cast anything, so I don't think that would stop them. Besides, it would be an unnecessary burden to have a Hunter need another Hunter in order to tame this. There are several mobs that don't cast but can still be interrupted (SBG mobs, caster/summoners in the Highlord Kruul/tank scenario...

Re: Simple guide to Legion quests?

Yeah, pretty much. Check the custom tab in group finder—there's usually a handful of sentinax groups, and as long as you can find one that has room (can't be a raid) you're pretty much set to go. Some groups have more beacons available than others, so it's a little bit of a crapshoot how long it'll ...

Re: Trial of Style starts NOW!

I guess it's easy for me to say since the character I won on most (because I queued on her most) is a female NE, but I didn't see that much of an elf bias. My female dwarf was the only one of the four I queued on that didn't get at least one first place win before she got enough tokens for the armor...

Re: End Time Emerald Dragonshire

RNG is just... bad like that, unfortunately. I wish there was a better answer for you, but that's almost certainly what it is. It's always Ruby and Obsidian because there's a chance for each dragonshrine to be the first, and that chance doesn't improve (or get worse) every time you reset it. I do fe...

Re: Giant Spider Pet?

Not an exploit, though definitely a little bit strange. That's Hati mogged into Terokkarantula from the Outland version of Terokkar Forest! He's significantly larger than other spiders in the wild, and while he doesn't retain it in pet form, he gets a little bit of it back when you mog him over to H...

Re: Should we have more stable slots?

@Xella In regards to family abilities, there are really only a few that are basically required to have: Hero, a Brez, and Spirit Mend (if you're BM). Outside of that, maybe you would want the slowfall from Rylaks or Feathermanes incase you aren't using Goblin Gliders. It used to be that there were ...

Re: Should we have more stable slots?
