I'm really excited by all this news. And I love the female Pandaren! They're actually really cute, but not so much it takes away from their character. Ahh. And the siege. And the druid glyphs. Sounds like a lot of neat stuff.

Since the female pandaren will get "markings that looks like vertical scars" and "only one eye will be covered" (or something like that) I really hope that the same will go for the updated old races :D Scars, scars, scars! :D

Oh, and armored beasts? (hopefully pets aswell) my wish from the Suggestions for our lurker thread (I think) would come true! Since they removed the old ZG tiger I've wanted an armored tiger as a pet... Pets needs more armor! :D (armored piggies anyone? I have the black one and love it!)

dammit, they won't be going with the other idea of having no limit on which server you have your 50 toons?

ONE character slot, seriously, it sucks.

the other stuff is awesome...

but ONE character slot?
Yea, thats one thing that annoyed me...I would have adored the no limit within the 50 characters..

I've been contemplating for some time now making a suggestion thread in general to uncap the characters per server limit, but keep the 50 per account limit in place.

It would make me happy.

I'm less than thrilled about the whole armor on pets thing. I swear, if I log in after installing MoP to discover that Daishar, who I went through heck to get back to her proper color after all the Cataclysm skin-switches, has had ugly plate armor slapped on her, I'm NOT going to be happy.

New species/models of pets with armor, I'm fine with. But I'm not going to like it if they start randomly slapping armor on already-existing beasts.

If I'd wanted a pet with armor on, I'd have already tamed one, thanks just the same.

I don't think they're suddenly going to put armor on beasts we already have tamed. I'm not even sure if this whole armor aspect applies to hunter pets so much as wild mobs, NPCs, and other creatures. I can't quite tell yet from what they've said, but I don't think we have to worry about our current pets.

For the orca and stag forms: ABOUT DAMN TIME!

However, I don't think stag form should be a glyph, especially if it will let people ride on your back. That glyph will cost an arm and a leg on any server being that important. It should be a higher level spell that replaces the cheetah version. Possibly at level 40 when people get epic mounts? Or if that's too overpowered at low levels make it some level 85+ spell.

. . . you’re also a stag instead of the clearly-inferior cheetah.


A cheetah probably easily outrun, catch, and eat a stag for dinner, but I won't argue with in-game logic and what is simply a joke from Blizzard.

I think they could have done better with the moonkin glyph. I know people wanted to see their armor in moonkin form, but a ghost form? Really? Gimme back my Arakkoa moonkin form since I cannot model edit anymore to one. ;-; Oh well. It's just a glyph. I'll be staying as a fluffy huggable moonkin that honks then.

Everything else I'm ok with, although killing Garrosh did make me go "whaaaaaa really? Ok. Cool. Everyone hates him anyways."

Well bringing down does not necessaryly mean killing him. It can mean banishing him etc. But no point in disgussing that really atm!

this is actually a sticking point for me.

how many years now have we been asking for some relaxing of the character limits on each server?

1 additional slot is... honestly cheap on Blizzard's part.
