    Shitty part is the toy version requires you to be Exalted with Timbermaw Hold. I think the only character I got to exalted with already has the original wand in the bank anyway.

    You also get a massive boost to base stats when you level. As in around a thousand per level. Even for crit reliant specs I'd bet 1000 AP or SP is worth a bit more than 1-2% crit.

    Definitely not. The more you play a character, the faster you can gain artifact power on that character. You may have a hard time choosing whether to level your main artifact vs offspec, but any time spent towards an offspec artifact will show higher return than the same amount of time on a...

    I'd say only 25-33% of all the spec revamps are actually crappy. If your main was one of those specs, just change to something else, there's plenty of fun ones to find. My personal favorites so far: Blood DK, Fury and Prot Warrior, Holy Pally, Marks Hunter, Outlaw Rogue, Disc Priest (I like the...

    Furious slash is only there as a filler, and it's purpose is strictly to prevent having to use furious slash again. It beats Wild Strike, and it beats the hell out of an empty GCD of doing nothing, which is exactly what they've done with both Fury and Arms in past expansions and claimed it was...

    Do you mean transmog or equip? Cuz technically they can still equip everything they used to: daggers, maces, axes, fists, even guns, crossbows, and bows. But the artifacts are swords.

    Also, healing proving ground is actually easier with lower ilvl. Both the enemies and NPCs scale with your ilvl (minimum 615 I think?) but the enemies scale up way more. At 670+ the NPC tank just melts within seconds on the harder waves. Also also, proving grounds on the PTR and beta aren't...

    The NPC tank in proving grounds is beyond retarded. Besides sitting in fire and not using (or even having) any active mitigation abilities whatsoever, he also has less HP than a normal player tank and doesn't have any more passive damage reduction than other NPCs. I think they might have been...

    So in WoD you were completely inadequate unless you had warforged, socketed, and avoidance on every single piece of gear, right? Because I heard the exact same unfounded anger at that system.

    This is one of the more retarded arguments they've come up with in the past few years. So what about multi-monitor displays? Ultra-wide monitors? Hell, according to their logic they should lock everyone to 4:3 since there are still some players out there using it. They should've stuck with...

    So you leveled 90-100, built a lvl 3 garrison and lvl 3 shipyard, farmed 125 stones, 900 runes, and 33 tomes, on your highest level character, all in 5 weeks? The effort that requires aside, that also takes a shitload of luck. Even 10 weeks would be better than average. Not so, unfortunately...

    The ring's not gonna last you that long anyway. You start getting 735+ epics at 103; by 105 even greens are 735+. If you have a fully upgraded ring (which takes 20 WEEKS on top of completing the quest), you might keep it all the way to 110, but it's unlikely. Keep in mind, they've stated that...

    Yep, Blood. Best part is starting with Pandaria, there are quite a few rare elite mobs that are worth extra XP but a bit of a challenge for many classes, and usually surrounded by normal mobs. As Blood you can just plow through everything to get to it and AoE all 50 mobs you pulled without a...

    The price isn't the weird part of it, it's the other ways you can easily get it. It's like paying $20 for a nice lunch that is normally only $15, then turning around and giving someone that lunch for a handful of arcade tokens, when there happens to be a barrel full of free arcade tokens if you...

    So far I've really enjoyed Fury War, Marks Hunter, Arcane Mage, Affliction Lock, Boomkin, and the Demon Hunter's dps spec (I'm never gonna get their real names straight). Frost DK is actually one of the blander specs right now. It's just the exact same thing as live but with fewer buttons, and...

    It's still fucked. You can train flying for Outland at 60, Northrend flying at 68, Cata flying at 60. Then you hit 85 and the fucking spellbook says you can train Panda flying, so you make the trek to Panda city, via teleport or passenger in someone's flying mount if you're lucky, the long...

    That's gone in Legion, so factor that in. I've been enjoying Arcane in Legion, and hear good things about Fire and Frost. Outlaw rogue sounds like it's doing good, but assassination straight up blows right now. The most annoying part of ass rogues on live is maintaining rupture uptime...

    You can switch to any spec out of combat anywhere, at the moment. They just changed it from costing an increasing amount every time you switch away from a chosen 'primary' spec, but the max on that was only like 75g. On the other hand, you can only change talents in rest zones. Scribes can...

    Could be RNG, but remember you need to have 675 ilvl on your own character and at least 3 675 followers for it to even have a chance to show up.

    Well it was the equivalent of paying 5 1/2 months so if you played at least half the time over a year it was worth it. I did it for the mount.

    Well you're not missing much right now. The servers were down, then there were queues, then I was on but getting kicked off every 2 min, then there were more queues, then I got on long enough to do the starting scenario, and now the servers are down again. This would be 100% ok for a beta...

    Yeah the only unfair part is they are forcing everyone to run the old content on a cloth class if they want to collect transmogs. Clothies are the worst classes at soloing old content. If it's old enough it won't matter, but there's going to be a TON of fights from Pandaria and WoD that are a...

    Ha, watch Blizzard give everyone a starting baseline of transmog appearances that includes all green gear, like they do in Diablo (white+blue+yellow in that case). Fuck your transmog market.

    I'd have to play it in a raid setting before I knew how I feel about Celestalon's whole post. On the one hand, 99% of tanks you see in random groups are complete retards. I've seen multiple DKs complain that they are too squishy, and who use Death Strike a total of maybe 3-4 times in an entire...

    Just interrupting the current "WoW sucks but I'll still pay them" squabbling for a quick PSA: They clarified that the new crates will still have the class transmog pieces, so no need to hoard boxes right now unless you want to collect green boe transmogs.

    You realize that's a perfectly normal looking curve for a 12 year old MMO, right? And WoW is on such a larger scale than other MMOs that there is no precedent for success or failure at this point. I hated dailies in Pandaria, but I've enjoyed them in most other expansions, including BC. The...

    Yeah you do need an actual healing class for her. Even a ret pally spamming flash of light will get the job done, but a true healing spec can top her off on 25 Heroic in a few seconds. If you get her to 100% before she spawns the portals, you automatically get "Portal Jockey" too.
