I have a question.. Will you get the character screen armors when boosting a character after 6.0.2 hits? Or will we have to wait for WoD for that? =)
the fact that there are more bots then players, particularly on european realms, and the inability or do not care atitude of EU Blizzard, is going to become and even bigger worry with unified auction houses. Basically giving goldsellers more access to even more players, thanks to going overboard with the realm connections / mergers...means there is now more life than ever those chinese gold sellers. Auction house prices should reflect the numerous players playing. Meaning the more that play, create more in the way of competition and more competition is good for everyone. All I and my friends see, is a hugely over inflated auction house by 2 individuals, who have been botting and even whispering people to buy gold, and then reported, and all blizz do is say we can do nothing.The Unified auction house is an even worse idea, because despite the so called competition factor, meaning much lower prices, we all know that is never going to happen, when 2/3rds of the players are botters...and this is very transparent when trying to level. You are essentially competing with botters for mobs, for thats all they kill, over and over, and this is like 10 people in a 2 person zone...no mobs no questing and this all came about thanks to the stupid realm connections...with mergers we honestly never had this issue. I am not saying we did not need realm connections, because the vast majority of pve realms in europe where near death, with severe under populated realms. Player population levels have been consistently dropping since the end of Wrath and have never recovered, and once Mists landed, we lost a lot more. You would not think so, to first see the botters...but there you go. It is going to kill this game stone dead unless Blizzard urgently find a way to ban these idiots. It is not fun having to queue to quest, because of so many botters...and no mobs.The new graphical changes are going to cause problems for the vast majority of people on low to mid end machines, and whilst i read that you will have a choice whether to use these new hd images, i hope you have implemented the switch, so those of us with mid to low end machines can actually continue to play the game. I would not be surprised to know that most people generally, probably play on a low to mid range gaming rig.It also does not help that they chopped up some zones making them even smaller in azeroth. Which basically means that the smaller the zone area the less people it can support. Maybe it's ploy to force people into the cash pay to win shop, to buy that ding to 90...I hope not, but I am beginning to feel it is, they knew this was going to happen and done nothing to prevent it. And with some ridiculous changes coming in 6.0.2, and it's only my opinion, it's only going to drive more people away. I really cannot see anything that is truly positive about these changes...most of all the ridiculous increase in subscription prices for a failing game, at least in Europe!and finally where is the paper doll for heirlooms? You have promised us for a long time this feature is coming, and nothing in any of these patch notes suggest it is. You should never be able to sell or delete heirlooms, but you have failed us there...by having no such restrictions when there should be, and this is why i and a number of people have been looking forward to the new paper doll heirlooms, where can just select from the wardrobe whether we want to wear them or not...please implement it.
1. Gear changing according to spec is only coming out when WoD comes out correct?2. Will there be vendors who sell greens around 500 for those who are not quiet up to scratch yet in terms of gear?
Patch on my birthday...
If the gear stat changing isn't coming in the prepatch, then why does the list of the special 550 ilvl UBRS have gear that includes agility/strength or agility/intellect?
There is a new graphics setting specifically for Raids and Battlegrounds as well as Anti-Aliasing. These are found under Systems > Graphics.Where can I find more details on this and this new "filesystem"?
I may have missed it but are warlords hunter pets going to be tamable for the expansion prepatch? Like will hydra become tamable?
Is the reversion of reforged gear confirmed for the October 14, pre-patch? This comment does not seem to be answered does anyone have any insight?Will remaining valor on toons be lost or converted to some other currency?
What is Versatility? I cannot find anything that tells about this new stats
Are the new darker nights coming with this patch or when the expansion launches?
great rundown, thanx perculiaIn the 6.0 prelaunch event I see some quests reward ability unlocksUnder Siege gives Sustained CombatGar'mak Bladetwist gives Abilities Fully UnlockedWhat abilities does your toon start with, if they need to be unlockedDo all of my toons need to run through this questline to get their abilities back
So the GM's - the question is...For bag space/bank space (or lack of) over the years all those awesome little toys we had no place for anymore and deleted - we can never get those again. Kinda makes the toy box worthless in a way...Is there a vendor you can buy the toys you lost over the years due to this issue or are they gone forever... Pretty lame though that this was added NOW as opposed to when we REALLY needed it back in the day :(...fail.
So excite!
Gems, enchants, flasks, and food are also affected by the stat squish and itemization changes. For example, all +hit gems (Rigid) are becoming +crit, and all all +expertise gems (Precise) are becoming +haste.Does that mean people who got blue hit gem will get their gem transform into yellow crit gem and red expertise into yellow haste ? O_O
So I'm a bit confused. When you say "You can easily get to Blasted Lands in 6.0 by..." Does that mean the phased version or the original version. I can't imagine there's no way to go back to the Burning Crusade content at max level, seeing as it's pretty popular among some players. Could someone possibly clarify that for me?
are they nerfing SoO coz if they keep it as PTR killing garrosh would be hard
