Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
i'm not liking all the deathknight nerfs, but it should make dual weilding viable for raiding. in our raid group there is a lot less competition for 1 handers than 2 handers

level 20 now for mounts? Did I read that right? That sucks. I remember how long the grind was to hit 40 to get that mount. now you can get a mount within a day. It is so much easier to quest/level witha mount.

You guys seen this yet? Some kid flipping the fuck out after his mom canceled his WOW account. It's hilarious.

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
So now that 3.2 has hit. What are your thoughts on the patch?
It will level the gear differences between casual players and raiders by a ton I think.
Seeing someone with Top end tier gear will not mean much since they could have gotten it by running Heroics over and over again.
The good news is it will help those of us with alts slowly get them geared better to enter raids.

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
Well, to be fair, you can only get 2 pieces of 8.5 gear from the Conquest emblems. It's not going to help you get Tier 9 gear, so there will still be plenty of opportunity for the elitists to do some e-peen waving. Me personally, I don't really care. I already had some 8 and 8.5 gear before the patch, and getting more through this method is awesome. Thumbs up all around from me for the patch.

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
dont you need the triumph badges as well as an trophy or something that drops from the raid bosses in order to get your tier pieces now?

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
Yes. You need the badges and the trophy. A strange system actually since you could get all the badges and never win a roll or get assigned a trophy and never be able to get your tier.

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
There are 3 different levels of T9.
The first (and weakest) is available with just triumph badges.
The second is costs triumph badges + a trophy.
The third (and best) only costs a tier token, and I believe that just drops in 25 Heroic mode.

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
are all the 2nd tier torphies the same? like you could get all 5 pieces even if you only got the trophies from Northrend Beasts?

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
Game just gets easier and easier. 5 80's now, hit the gold cap, and cleared it on 10 man. Yogg is still an issue for the 25 man group, but that is due to some who just can't seem to follow the simplest of directions.
If I happen to log on late and miss the guild 5 man runs for the daily and ToS I have to pug, and then I get to see the dregs of the game. DK who puts out 900dps, fire mage who loves to cast frostbolt over and over. God forbid I find a competent tank who understands that you have to hit more then one mob in a multi-mob pull.
As for the new 10 and 25. /sigh. One pull, that's all it took to down the new bosses. Stuff like that is just silly. Yes, it was not hard mode, but still... I was expecting more for "Not one, but two Jormaungars!" Blizz is getting lazy and it is really starting to show.

Re: World of Warcraft Official Thread - Round 3
well, for every group who blew through the new 10/25 man in one pull, there were groups like mine who took 8 or 9 attempts to get them down.
I'll agree that blizz is getting lazy, but if you're in a good group that is clearing almost all of udluar, don't be so surprised if you can waltz through the first battle of the next raid.

I don't think Blizzard is getting lazy. I just think they continue to tone down the crazy "running a raid 20 times to accomplish anything" and spending 5000 G for a mount that is only fun for people that have that kind of free time.
I have two 80s and a few other higher level alts, but I've always been a casual WoW player. I took a break recently because it was too difficult to get good gear with a job, a family and only a few nights a week to play. So anything Blizzard does to make the game more accessible and fun for people like me, I'm all for.

what is the gold cap, delda? currently for me it seems to be about 300, haha.
we got the new new boss down last night but it wasnt a one shot. we're still working on yogg25 too; learning phase 3. we need to kill Yogg so Uld will reset and so I, as the low man on the loot totem pole, will have some shots at some drops!

HELLLOOOOOO ONYXIA
From the official boards
http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...sid=1&pageNo=1
From the official boards
She has lurked in her lair and done battle with the many brave adventurers who travelled to that familiar location over the years. Now, in honor of the World of Warcraft 5-year anniversary, the dreaded brood mother Onyxia is being revamped to make a return to the forefront of Azeroth, as part of our big plans for the upcoming 3.2.2 content patch.
This permanent update to Onyxia will convert the dungeon into 10- and 25-player modes. We will be adding new items to Onyxia’s loot table that have the same model as some of the classic loot from this dungeon, like Tier 2 helms, with stats updated to match the current level of content. There will be a special new item too: a normal drake-sized 310% speed flying mount modeled after Onyxia herself called Brood of Onyxia. We will also be updating the encounter mechanics to be more fitting for modern raiding, but we can guarantee players will get to experience the frightening horror of deep breaths once again.
Then for a limited time, after the 5-year anniversary event officially begins in November, anybody who logs in will receive an Onyxia Brood Whelpling pet.
We’re very excited to bring this classic encounter back to provide a fun new experience for both new and veteran players. Further details will be available in the near future, and we will be setting up the Public Test Realms soon to help test out this fight along with all the new content we have planned for the patch. Keep an eye on the forums for updates!

As for the complaining part. So, when people do not like something they should just shut up and walk away? How does anything ever change if you use that mindset in life? Fail logic is fail.
