    I think they added a cooldown though. No spammage.



    Heroic UP - What's the deal with Skadi's WW? Can it be outrun? I got chewed out by the healer for sitting there and tanking through it when he was on me.

    it targets the last person hit by his poison spear. it really shouldn't hurt the main tank much but it'll most likely head towards everyone else. also if you taunt him he'll whirlwind back towards you. also you can always disarm him during his WW

    General

    * Achievement: The Loremaster of Kalimdor Achievement has had its quest amount reduced.
    * Bonus Armor: The mechanics for items with bonus armor on them has changed (any cloth, leather, mail, or plate items with extra armor, or any other items with any armor). Bonus armor beyond the base armor of an item will no longer be multiplied by any talents or by the bonuses of Bear Form, Dire Bear Form, or Frost Presence.

    PvP

    Bug Fixes

    * Druid: Savage Fury - Mangle (Bear) damage was being increased by a higher percentage than intended. This has been fixed, and in result Mangle (Bear) should see roughly a 16% damage reduction. Also fixed a bug with Savage Fury where the Rake bleed effect was not being increased.
    * Priest: Mind Flay - Fixed a bug with targeting where you would not deal damage if not facing the target while channeling.
    * Shaman: Elemental Shields was reducing flat physical damage, not a percentage. Now properly reduced by a percentage.
    * Shaman: Lava Lash - Fixed a bug which allowed you to use the ability even if you had a shield in offhand. Now requires a 1hand axe, fist or dagger to be able to be used. Bug #147699.
    * Shaman: Fixed a bug where Thunderstorm (Elemental) was knocking back 15 yards, instead of 20. It should now roughly knockback the correct length of 20 yards.

    It can be outrun mostly yeah. You'll get hit like 2 or 3 times instead of 10. It's a lot of extra damage that you don't need to take if you run. Just make sure everyone is running since otherwise you'll run him right across your healer and they don't appreciate that.

    Well now I just feel stupid. 3 HUP runs later...


    Also sad that I haven't seen the tank pants from H-VH (3 runs) or the sword from H-UP(3 runs) yet. I know it's unreasonable to expect with the RNG and all, I just have limited playtime and hope against hope. I did, however, get the tank trinket to drop from Loken my first HoL run yesterday though. The dps DK fought with me about it for 5 minutes, asking why a warrior would even want it.

    ehh, there are better tanking trinkets for warriors, but if you don't have them yet then the loken one is still good.

    I think the valor medal and lavanthor trinket are the best ones really.

    but if he isn't tanking then he can shut his face.

    He wasn't. My tanking trinkets were the crit/heal on use trinket from Wrathgate and a crit/AP trinket from another Dragonblight quest.

    Shooting for the omgstam trinket from H-AN next.

    To this day my crowning achievement in WoW is still navigating The Lyceum in BRD with a PUG.
    I did a 41-minute Baron Rivendare run in a PUG without a single piece of raid gear on anyone in the group about a week or two after 1.10 went live. That was kinda fun.

    O shit. Are there even 100 mounts in the game at the moment? I thought there were something like 82 before the xpac hit?

    Their greed truly knows know bounds. When they eventually run out of frivolous(sp?), cosmetic things, will they eventually add things you can buy that advance your character in some way? Buying artifacts? Buying extra glyph slots? Extra character slots?

    So seriously, we all know changing races will be added sometime; presumably when their subscriber base's rate of growth levels off or begins to slow again.

    So when will they stop with this stuff?

    I hate when companies capitalize on business opportunities in a way that doesn't affect game play. How greedy are they, god. Games are for playing, not for making money.

    You should be grateful that the barbershop is an in game feature, instead of being critical of Blizzard for offering this option for real dollars.

    Well, I just quickly looked it up, and as an Engineering Paladin I could hit 100 mounts.

    IF I had all of the Qiraji Crystals (including the black one), and IF I had every single mount that ever dropped in the game (raven lord, ashes of a'lar, deathcharger, both ZG mounts, etc), and IF I had every mount from every achievement and faction (including the green proto-drake).

    I think they might be planning on adding more mounts at some point.

    Actually it's kind of interesting, I read yesterday that Sony had recently(?) implemented a sort of pay-for-cosmetics/buffs in-game exchange system in Everquest/EQII. They have a dollar/points system and you pay so much for x amount of points, and these points can be used to purchase all kinds of shit like:

    -XP boosting potions: Four "strengths", the strongest one boosts your xp gain by 50% for four hours and costs 1000 points ($10)
    -Non-combat pets
    -Cosmetic armor: this is something I REALLY wish the devs would implement for WoW. Apparently there is a section for "appearance" armor in every slot on your character, but it doesn't affect your stats in any way; it's purely aesthetic. This would go great lenths to helping combat the "clown armor" issue in TBC or the "we only made two models of armor for every armor type and unless you're a plate wearer good luck not looking stupid as hell" issue in WotLK.
    -Models for your house (mannequins to store armor on, I think)

    I'm sure there was more, but that's as far as I read. I just wonder if Blizzard would ever consider doing something like this. The whole RMT situation has already been kind of broached with this "pay us real money to make your person look different" deal, so this doesn't appear to be that far off the mark.

    I hope they add more "reasonably obtainable" mounts in and not just "best of luck on this ridiculous drop rate" or "defeat arthas in two seconds while taking no damage and wearing brown socks" achievement stuff.

    RMT affects the in game economy. Paying for cosmetic or minor enhancements doesn't affect anybody.

    Edit: At least, RMT in the sense in which it's typically criticized.
