    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    MSV opened October 2, 2012 HoF opened October 30, 2012 ToES opened Nov 13, 2012 Final LFR opened Nov 20, 2012 So the entire raid tier, all difficulties, was opened up in 7 weeks. We have 8 weeks alone between Normal Highmaul and Normal Foundry, with all difficulties (all bosses), taking...

    It's actually the opposite. They are stretching out content longer than ever before. Highmaul+Blackrock Foundy = Tier 17 just like MSV+Heart of Fear+Terrace of Endless Spring = Tier 14.

    I'm not sure its been posted yet in this thread, but its worth mentioning even if it has. For us Barn folk out trapping beasts, you can actually get two caged beasts off of one mob. To do this, you just need to time it so you lay down two trap on top of each other before trapping the mob...

    The only difficulty where you are "locked" to that raid ID has been the highest one. So Mythic raids this expansion, etc. everything else you are just prevented from getting loot more than once from a boss per week. Personal loot in raids has always been lower % than in 5man, plus they have...

    lvl 2 plans are either bought from vendor for 750g or with the quest drops. lvl 3 plans are unlocked, account-wide, via achievements.

    There has been concrete info...its on wowhead. Also, dont forget about the 640 epic ring from Brawler's guild. Sure it costs 16k, but its super easy and fast to get so...and 16k is not a lot of gold these days to most raiders. And DMF opens on Sundays, not Mondays.

    Nope, world bosses are supposed to be accessible from the start. The daily Challenge Mode reward contains a 640 spec appropriate armor piece. Randomized secondaries, but there is a crafted item that rerolls secondary stats on items. The point though is that the only source of pre-raid 640+...

    Actually it's not that bad they are part of the 3 since there aren't many (any?) other sources of epic trinkets pre-Highmaul, whereas there are multiple ways to get epics for every other non-weapon slot.

    Really? I'm surprised by this as I feel like the art of the zones has never looked better. I'm curious how the masses will feel once it's released.

    I thought it was said by a Blue that raid loot missions for followers won't unlock until you yourself have cleared the raid for several weeks, on LFR difficulty at the very least. EDIT: Yes...found the following response by Watcher The nature of the tuning here is such that it's...

    Bit incorrect here. What Final Verdict does, in part, is give a dmg bonus to your next DS and increases it's radius of effect. The Draenor Perk that we earn upon hitting lvl 92 is what is exactly like our Tier 16 4pc is now.

    Yeah I only had the patience to get them with the turnins you can do from Pandaren dig site solves...but that's only due to me being a sucker for achievements. Those Collect 20 ones almost drove me insane. Not sure which was worse, those or the collection achievement for Timeless Isle drops.

    This is pretty damn close to how I feel about it, although I am more negative on garrisons. Just seems to be a huge gimmick that makes the game feel less MMO since you do seem to spend so much time there. Agree with Spires too, definitely to coolest story/zone.

    My god Mythics are a joke now compared to before. The health squish just makes everything die so much faster than before. We were a 10 man guild before patch, so we had to carry 4-5 very under geared dps, and we still obliterated our best times for the first 5 bosses. If anyone is looking...

    It was just added in this patch. There's a 5man in WoD with a boss fight where you end up coming out of that portal as part of the encounter.

    Siege of Ogrimmar was the planned final raid before the expansion was even released, the continent wasn't abandoned. I'm sorry you didn't like Pandaria, but plenty of the folks I play with loved it and are sad to be leaving. Oh, and I'm pretty sure "least canonical setting" just got...

    Not quite. The lvl 90 version we get today is not the whole thing, it's just a limited sneak preview of what the WoD revamp will be. It does go all the way to the end with the final boss being Warlord Zaela, the Orc that was riding Galakris in SoO.

    Heroic Malk is no joke, it's the first truly hard encounter in there. While "avoid the orbs" may seem simple, the amount of orbs that spawn, and the pathing complications that it creates to the void zones, coupled with a very tight enrage timer is no joke.

    Because that's nowhere near the case. First zone quest rewards are around 512. The final quest zone offers rewards that are 580 base level. Level 100 normal 5mans drop 615ilvl items iirc. So yeah...the cloak will last awhile relative to prior expansions.

    Yeah...they took the wrong lessons from what made Vanilla-TBC so successful and took them to the extreme.

    Well this is certainly a setback for the genre. Sounds to me from that article and the music analogy that there were some "creative differences" going on, in a big way. Too many cooks stirring the pot probably.

    More than anything I am curious as to how this fits into Wrathion's plans to unite Azeroth...why an alternate timeline Draenor of 35 years ago?

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    The reason why Wildstar failed is that the gameworld as a whole is not any more immersive than WoW was 10 years ago. Why did EQ blow our socks off? First 3D MMORPG. Why did WoW trump it? bigger, more seamless game world, tons less "loading" immersion breaks, areas with story and scripted...

    Magnitudes better than what it was like at first, where there were no guaranteed drops and you got lucky to get more than one a week.
