    I have the main hand on my rogue I would like the off hand but since my computer blew up I have to share one. I see a lot of pugs starting for BT with the magic words of reserved mentioned.

    I might try soloing MC on my warrior for the thunder fury and to build Sulfuras {I have only seen ONE blood in the whole time I have played}

    I'd go for Sulfuras but there's no point now that they made it so you don't get the feat unless you equip it (which I can't do). I wish I could solo BT though - I have the offhand glaive and it's annoying the shit out of me that I don't have the mainhand... And I don't have the patience to try and form a pug (tried once, couldn't get enough to do anything).

    I do a night of old raid steamrolling. I hit Kara (for a shot at the mount), MC (rep and looking for bindings), and AQ40 (I'm about two bosses away from exalted).

    I should try Kael again in TK and see if I can solo him now with T13 gear.

    EDIT I should clarify this is for MC...didn't realized we were adding in the other old dungeons :P

    In that case, I nominate the Bug Trio as one of the worst bosses to solo. Stuns, Fears, Knockbacks, and self healing....all in the span of 10 seconds.

    Man fuck those guys.

    This means the GM transferred the guild to another realm. It's a new guild service that was implemented recently. In cases like this, the people in the guild get moved into a "new" guild with the same name. "New" means entirely new: starts at level 1, bank is reset, achievements are reset.

    Weird, all of the raiding people are still on the same server but joined a new guild. Hmmmm. Im going to assume that the GM gave someone GM status and then disbanded the guild or something. Or perhaps disbanded altogether.

    Wait, you don't need to be in a raid to enter now? Is this true for all raids?

    Or are you just saying how long has it been soloable, because I was soloing it ~4.1 or something.

    Ugh, my DK is at the point now where only Ultraxion and Blackhorn have tank upgrades for me in RF. That means I can queue as DPS for Siege to try to get some DPS upgrades, but I still "have to" queue as tank for Fall. The main problem with this is that Spine drops an awesome DPS trinket, but I obviously can't roll for it as a tank.

    I guess Madness doesn't matter much either way, as either of the two weapons I can roll on (Gurthalak and Souldrinker) both give a role bonus whether I'm DPS or tank. I wish I could "aim for" a 2/4 Madness as DPS, then queue as a tank to finish off the first two. Why won't those assholes just give me my boots and belt?

    Yeah I've had Garrs bindings for ever. Never seen them drop off of Geddon. I stopped farming it weekly awhile back because I just got so sick of it. I have everything I need for both the Windseeker and a Sulfurion Hammer just hanging out in my bag waiting for the Eye.

    You only need 4 people or so to do BT and you only need that many due to Reliquary and maybe also because of Council. Every other boss in there can be 2 manned as long as you know what you're doing and one of you is a healer or a tank.

    Eh, there's nothing I really need from BT transmog-wise...maybe the shield from Illidan but I can live without.

    Now, I still need my helm from Hyjal, but I'm not sure if that's soloable given some of the boss mechanics.

  • PoketpixiePoketpixie Registered User regular
    Hyjal can be soloed but the trash is oh so tedious. Also, there's a goblin vendor in Area 52 selling T4/5, and 6 items for honor points(no tokens needed) so if that's what you're after....

  • NobodyNobody Registered User regular
    I'd just need the chest (well, matching boots too) for T5 as I have the full T4. Unfortunately its a recolor from the vendor :\

    Bonus points because Kael also drops a mount, which I like collecting so...

    Is this new? Last time I went there they only sold PVP gear... the replicas from lvl60 and the normal recolored tiers from lvl70.
    Also, Wowhead doesn't show any of the tiers being sold by anyone but the usual token quartermasters.

    he doesn't sell tier gear, but the S1/2/3 models were really similar in some cases (less so in others)

    I should clarify, it's the pvp gear. It shares the same look as the equivalent tier stuff but it uses slightly different colors. I don't know if it's new but it was new to me. Previously the only place I could find the stuff was Isle of Quel'danas and they wanted tier tokens for it.

  • Eat it You Nasty Pig.Eat it You Nasty Pig. tell homeland security 'we are the bomb'Registered User regular
    nah, it was like that in the day

    some of the sets are so similar as to be interchangeable; my warlock just uses the S2 pvp belt, because I didn't want to farm lurker for the one that actually matches the set. IIRC the warrior set is also nearly identical. Paladins on the other hand :rotate:

    Yeah I have 4/5 of the Pally T5 pieces (missing chest, which is my fault because I got rid of it some time ago for bank space), I looked up the S2 pieces and saw that it....didn't match at all.


    In other news, got my Heroic ESS (which is BiS for me outside of the Heroic hentai sword....which requires H Madness kills so I have some time) and also got my H Yorsahj kill.

    Spent a bit of time on H Ultraxion last night, and our biggest issue seemed to be people really overestimating their connection speed.

    So how healthy is WoW right now? From my POV it seems like it's dying, but I probably underestimate the vast casual cattle herd that still loves dailies and LFR, etc?

    I quit a little under a year ago, and the entire raid scene on my server seems to be devastated now. There used to be like 20+ 25man Alliance guilds pushing raid content, besides tons of 10mans. Now theres maybe 1 25man guild left and like 10 10mans doing any decent content. None of them really pushing bleeding edge. Seems grim.

    That sounds like my realm :P

    Some realms (and Factions on lopsided servers) do seem to be in trouble, however there are still many servers out there doing well.

    It wouldn't surprise me at all if the officers of my guild decide to do a guild faction/server change in the future (we're the last 25 man Horde guild, and one of only two Horde guilds left pushing heroic content).

    Eh, 3 months into 3.3, WoW definitely didn't feel dead on either server I played on. I believe my guild was still working on Arthas at that point (or maybe still wiping to Sindragosa? not sure). There were trade chat raids forming for ICC pretty regularly.

  • HalfmexHalfmex Only WHO can prevent forest fires? You selected 'you', referring to me. That is incorrect. The correct answer is: You.Registered User regular
    I read an interesting post the other day which illustrated a point that I hadn’t considered. The LFR, for all the good it did for accessibility, really hamstrung the game as a whole because everyone does it. Everyone does it, and that really reduces the desire to go back through it again each week on an increased difficulty (be it normal or heroic) so people are feeling the burnout factor twice as fast as they were even back in 3.3. At that point, sure, people were pugging ICC but almost no one was clearing that in a pug, even with the 30% buff.

    That is all the more reason in my eyes that they should scrap the separate LFR difficulty and make Normal difficulty the de facto standard. Make that as accessible (read: easy) as LFR and leave heroic mode as difficult as it is (and never nerfing it – even if I don’t run heroic modes I think nerfing heroics wholesale is silly). Queue for LFR, make that the normal mode (not the ghetto stepchild mode it is today with its inexplicably shorter loot table). Boom, now you can add folks to your guild run in either 10 or 25 via the LFR, it’s just as accessible as it is today and there’s no need to run it twice a week.

  • Jubal77Jubal77 Registered User regular
    Couple bad things about that Halfmex if the normals become LFR difficulty then raid weeks will diminish greatly. There is gearing required to realistically get anywhere in Heroic raid content the way it is tuned currently at release. And so if there are only two tiers of content with Normals being the new LFR then people would be done raiding on the first day... leaving many people with nothing to do for the remainder of the week on new content. So then they have to then add another raid tier if they make Heroic raid content similair or a bit harder than current normals? Nightmare or something?

    I agree with you that LFR made burn out on content much much faster. But I tend to believe from my experiences in LFR that these people just dont deserve to raid so just get rid of LFR completely.

    Edit: Or create an Intro raid that has unique boss fights that drop tokens and JP with a VP reward at the end. These fights could center around entry/intro to the raid tier and function as a initial gear up for alts and new individuals. And of course allow for the masses of bads to gear up past 5 mans.

    Maybe decouple the normal and heroic raid lockouts then, so that a player could run normal and heroic in the same week. Unless it's that way already, in which case disregard that.

  • KimFidlerKimFidler Registered User
    I think Blizzard is pretty happy with the way LFR is working right now. Thousands of people are running LFR every single day and more people that had no intention of doing normals or heroic difficulty are keeping their subscriptions active. I personally couldn't care less about doing normal or heroic but I'll run LFR every week for something to do.

    The days of a select few being able to see current WoW content is done and I think in the long run it's going to be the best financial decision Blizzard has made since the launch of Cataclysm.

    I did Hyjal with 3 people the other day and it was still totally mind-numbing. I guess I found out the reason no one makes PUG transmog runs for Hyjal but BT/Sunwell are incredibly popular.

    I think it really varies from server to server. There are a lot of ghetto servers that survive thanks to LFD and now LFR letting people do at least some of the content. On the other hand, Kil'Jaeden (which I'm on) is really, really active on both Ally and Horde.

    I liked Algalon, even though I never saw him myself. I like the idea of bonus bosses for hard mode. It's reminiscent of olden video game days where the only way to see the true final boss was to do it on hard (or at least not do it on easy). But the problem is they actually want LFR to exist for people who merely want to see the story/content. So I don't know. But the general idea is how I would personally take it. I suppose they could throw in optional bosses for Normal/Hard that are irrelevant to the story, or at least less relevant. That's how I would do it anyway.

    I ran ICC pretty much until Cataclysm hit, or at least until 4.0 hit. But I haven't touched Cataclysm since March 2011, and I never completed a single Cataclysm raid. Makes me sad. Though I'm not sure how much of it is the fault of Cataclysm itself, it was mainly due to an impossible to pin down 10 man raid roster, and the loss of separate 25 man raids. Only half of that was Cataclysm's fault.

    It really does just feel like a waiting game for Mists. Though I'll probably resub to WoW in the next week, I want to play dress up with my Death Knight.

    Okay so, to touch on the topic someone brought up earlier, you can indeed enter and farm the following instances solo (no group/raid required):

    Molten Core
    Blackwing Lair

    That's all I've managed to test so far. That's an amazing change and one I'd hoped for when they first announced Transmog as a feature. What's strange is I've never seen it in any patch notes - I doubt many people know of the change. Hopefully all of at least the vanilla instances are this way, though I'd be ecstatic if the TBC ones were as well.

    I wonder if it would satisfy complainers if the debuff was off by default, and groups were forced to toggle it on instead. It's essentially the same thing, but with more "humiliation" of sorts, and that's what they want right?

    Though I'm fine with it being on by default personally. Everyone's pride is (relatively) in tact, and can only be bolstered further by turning it off.

    Actually I'd heard that there was some kind of trick/glitch to be able to solo Razorgore. Haven't tried it myself, but /shrug. Hopefully this is a more broadsweeping change than just those two raids.

    Haven't heard anything about the bindings. But then I heard zip about this raid change either so apparently I'm not part of the wow underground changes newsletter any longer.
