The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
The current plan is to attempt to start the Holiday Forums on December 23rd sometime during the day. During this time, the Future State Planning Center will remain open. The Holiday Forum merge will last (if Vanilla cooperates) until January 3rd.

    Phase 3

    * Disease now turns characters into Zombies in 5 minutes instead of 10.
    * Groups of Plagued Residents can be found wandering lower level zones, attacking other mobs and players at random.
    * Argent Healers start to disappear from cities.

    Healers disappearing? Oh the dumbshits that will complain about this now. It is damn cool though.

    Aparently the kid who went to blizzard with make a wish foundation passed away on Monday. Link. It's his voice that was added to an NPC in Mulgore. A tauren who has lost his dog. The season 2 crossbow has his character name on it and he received the first phoenix mount.

    According to several people it looks like the plague is in different phases on different servers, I wonder if it means it is affected by player participation.

    Hrm, a Sunwell Isle style plague. This would be truly awesome.

    Edit; and even better, rather than a zone maturing or npc's telling us "we're at x% completion" of an objective, you'd just have to see how the disease is progressing.

    Do players turn in 10 minutes? In 5? Are they becoming liches? No to the last one? Okay, you're not in phase 5.

    Well, not yet.

    (becomming liches is made up. Though it'd be awesome)

    If you're level 70, you can get all the way through Strath without aggroing any of those.

    Technically, if you're level 70, you can kill Baroness and Nerub'enkan without aggroing a single trash mob.

    Ok so I haven't really been on WoW since just before Brewfest. In an effort to catch up, let me know if I have things sorted out correctly....

    It's currently Hallows End. Squashling/Pumpkin Head helm things now drop from treat bags. Meaning, the only reasons to do HH are for a mount/laughing helm/achievement?

    They started the WotLK event. People can turn in to zombies and attack other players regardless of faction, this in turn infects the players being attacked. Creating more zombies? And apparantly theres another boss being added to Kara in the servents quarters? Does that mean the lame animal bosses wont be around for the duration of the event?

    Is there anything else?

    If anything, it means that we'll just end up pulling the animal boss along with a bunch of other trash packs and then aoe it all down.

    Maybe including the new boss too, depending on how tough he is.

    I've got a ret pally friend who does that just for fun. It's honestly the only reason I am right now leveling a ret pally. Not for the fuckload of DPS. Not to hop on the bandwagon. Just so I can solo old-world instances for fun occasionally. Anything else is incidental.

    For in-game stuff dealing with events, yup, that's about it.

    As far as catching up though, I would be loads more worried about reading up on your class changes in 3.02. The good news is we're all still learning them.

    Yeah, it's possible, and I've done it. Just when you aggro one of the spiders, it tends to snowball because they'll root and silence you, and then run into more mobs. So before you know it, you're fighting 10 mobs, two of which are spamming silence and root on you, two of which are constantly magic barriering themselves, and another two gargoyles who just nuke you from a distance without a mana bar and, thus, doing so indefinitely.

    I haven't died from this yet, it's just incredibly aggravating and adds extra time.

    They pretty much stay to the middle-of-the-road in their pathing. To avoid them altogether, it's usually easier to clear the packs of ghouls along the walls and run through those cleared paths.

    I just like to cuddle with big burly men sometimes, that doesn't make me gay.
    I got the patch notes, but only went over class changes to see if they were different than the beta. I also logged in a few times here and there, but only for maybe 10 minutes at a time.


    Anyways, I think I'll be making my triumphant return this weekend.

    Things like that still amaze me. "You have to be very good to raid BT+," some elitist will say. Then you run into "that guy" in the T6 and wonder how the hell he got his gear.

    I was in a guild with 'that guy'. Sentimental guild leader+Badly designed DKP system+ Shithouse lock who'd been in the guild since the start= I never got all t6 pieces while i was raiding because the guy whom all the other warlocks thought was a useless waste of space, who very rarely showed up to raid yet got first pick of all the t6 pieces because he'd built up a massive stockpile of DKP from tk and ssc got first choice with all the t6 loot (set price, no bid system whoever has the most gets the piece)

    I died on Nerub'enkan on my prot warrior due to this my first try - he pulled both side groups of casters, like 3 gargoyls (including the silver elite, who still hits pretty hard), and 2 of the white ghosty things

    Baroness is actually easier solo than 2 person, since she doesn't MC solo

    The thing with Nerub'enkan is that he'll root you. And then back up to get a good range for scarabs. Run to him, through him, and try to hide in the corner of the doorway so any attempts to back up means he's out of LOS and he runs back in.

    I am giving my feedback about the T6 being high nose. I had a friend who promised me when coming to WoW she will help me get into raid and enjoy the game. Well come 70 I got kicked from the guild and she doesn't respond to me. Remember I knew her before WoW like about 4 years. Now she acts too good for me and my other friends.
    Need to find a guild that would teach me to raid and not be like "YOU SHOULD KNOW ALREADY!"
