on Mal'ganis (and probably for all stormstrike BG), for horde it's 45+ minute queues for an AV match that pits 40 horde vs. 7-15 alliance. been doing this every day since the new honor stuff comes out, and theres never more than 1 AV up, even on weekends. Sort of a bummer given it's the best way to get honor for time spent

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

For me, the glory of gaming isn't in how many epix I get, or how many bosses I beat before others. It's all about earning those exclamation points. It puts a warm feeling right down here in the cockles of my heart.

My server is plagued by hundreds of jewelcrafters all cutting blue gems and undercutting each other for 1 silver so their auction appears at the top of the list. Since its really fucking hard to sell anything because 30 seconds after you list a gem someone undercuts you and takes your spot at the top.

My epic fun for the last couple days is buying uncut gems, cutting them and putting them up for 1g more than the uncut. Undercutting everyone by 20-30g makes for some interesting tells as people scramble to sell off their current stock and prices plunge even further.

I've been doing that, too, but for just a little more (figured I'd make a little bit more money for my time).

It's hilarious, the tells I get.

My favorite was something like, "FUCK U FUCK U STOP SELLING FOR SO LESS!!!!!!!"

The more I quest in Northrend the more I am getting sick of click on item X in your inventory when mob Y is dead or low health or not in combat. Between clicking on something every other quest and that stupid vehicle screen every dozen quests I am starting lose interest. Don't get me wrong the vehicle screen was cool the 1st time I did it but after the 20th time (especially when I could kill the mobs faster as my actual character) it gets real annoying. Anyone else feel the same way?

I've always been a fan of the NToV style of dungeon design. Make the entry level mob a real fucker to beat, then a bunch of easier farm content in the middle, with a real bitch of a mob to beat at the end. That way it's an achievement to actually enter the dungeon where maybe 60% of the server can do it, yet only 10-20% can clear the final boss.

That was expected wasn't it? As a side note, killed sarth 10man finally today, for once we had a good setup, and even though our kill is probably the worst sarth try I ever tanked(25man included), he still died. It's a pretty nice fight, tooks us quite some time to find the right tanks.

I have an addon that automatically hotkeys those click items, without that I think I would have gone insane yeah.

The vehicle stuff I didn't mind so much. There were a few points where it was pretty unecessary though (Stormpeaks abuses it way too often when it should have been used for maybe 2 quests).

Haha fucking win. Always funny to see the cheaters get what they deserve.

In other news, really diggin' this new cell phone... which I am posting from. Woo!

Can anyone else agree with me in saying to correctly nerf fury warriors it's as simple as reducing the base stats gained from both weapons while using TG by half?

Good. I hope they manage to find at least 90% of the exploiting fags who did that shit.

Doing 3-drakes successfully, and legitly, was one of the most hair-raising yet rewarding things I'd ever done, but boy did I blow my load after that 4 hours of wiping to it when he finally died.

Heh, I finally got around to killing that bigass iron giant in Storm Peaks with the Jormungar, and the worm died like halfway thru the kill. I figured I was controlling it from the orb, like it said, but I jump out with my warrior, and just finish the fucker off from half.

I felt the same way, hated it on my mage, and I'm sure I'll hate it on my warlock. I guess I can just skip most of them this time around though.

I don't think I was thinking in terms of a significant change, more itemization inflation of stats. I don't feel it's fair to receive more than the damage side of the benefit of using 2 2handers. Creating inflation in statistical gains imo, which is probably hard to balance when thinking [ x2 fury vs everyone else that uses one two hander ]. It just doesn't seem right to me.

From the patch changes fury warriors aren't the 'problem'. They're giving us a minor buff heh, intentionally or because of situational reasons (leveling etc) I don't know...The point is the other classes need to be looked into, nerfing fury warriors is a rough task given not much has actually changed but 2hander acquisition which was the reason for the absurdity in the first place.
