August of wind clearing the Mists and revealing Pandaria - LC Thread

[Low Key]

I will say I'm lovin' the **** out of my warrior. Got muh stance dance macros all set up. Didn't realize I'd get to keep 75 rage with talents and abilities.

But yeah, I have like no desire to do much of anything else, not even making gold.

I did, however, get a random world whelpling the other day, and a ~5k gold piece of transmog gear. Those combined should put me just over 600k.

PvP just seems really bleh right now. Tried healing IoC last night on my sham, we got their gate down a full 10 minutes before ours went down. We managed to lose somehow. I think at least half our team must have been bots or afk.

Sigh... apparently, another guild on my server on my server is PMing people in my guild (and others, apparently) trying to poach people.

Better get used to it, that's pretty common stuff

I figured as much, but it's pretty sad.

7-3 not bad in 2's today. We are within striking distance from 1550. A push next weekend could do it for that achieve at least.

Who says enhance shaman suck?



In mostly vicious gear, 3300 res. Granted, it's SotA, where most of the focus on both sides is on the demos, but still.

[Low Key]

20 more levels!

And then 70 more levels.

and then 75 more levels.

and then (5*10) + 90 levels once monks are available.

= /

[Aceium]

Are you botting all that?

[Low Key]

Probably. Mostly, at least. No ****in' way in hell am I playin' all those **** levels.

I guess the open beta let people design profiles specifically for monks, so that doesn't even need worked on. XD

Does anyone else get these mind = blown moments when you look carefully at some of the spell icons? I was staring at the hex icon for no reason, and I found out it's a frog, which makes sense of course. I had no clue what I thought it was before, but when I saw the frog it blew my mind

Valor/Conq conversion info

The currency conversion coming with Mists of Pandaria is going to happen in three stages, and this is how we plan for it to progress:

With Patch 5.0.4 on August 28

• Valor points will be converted to Justice points, and Conquest points will be converted to Honor points.
  • Neither of the resultant currencies (Justice and Honor) will have an enforced hard-cap at this time.
• The current Arena season will end.
• Players will no longer be able to earn Valor or Conquest points (bosses will drop Justice, Arenas will be closed).
• Items formerly purchasable for Valor/Conquest will be available for Justice/Honor.

With Mists of Pandaria on September 25

• Valor can be earned again.
  • Characters can earn up to 1000 Valor per week, and carry a maximum of 3000 Valor.
  • Daily quests, random Scenarios, random Heroic dungeons, and all levels of raiding will reward Valor.
  • Valor will be used to purchase ilvl 489 gear in Mists of Pandaria.
    • The Klaxxi, Golden Lotus, Shado-Pan, and August Celestials factions will sell this gear.
    • Revered reputation with each faction will be required.
• Conquest will become earnable.
  • There is a cap of 4000 Conquest points.
  • Arenas and Rated Battlegrounds reward Conquest.
  • It will be used to purchase ilvl 483 gear from Pandaren battlemasters on the Great Wall.

With Mists of Pandaria, Patch 5.1

• We currently plan to upgrade the Valor system as Ghostcrawler described in Mists of Pandaria Looting Explained in the 5.1 patch, allowing you to upgrade your gear using Valor points. We’ll have additional information once Mists of Pandaria launches and we get closer to the 5.1 patch release.

What changes have they made to PvP gear? Is resilience still in play or is it the new PvP power/defense system?

[Low Key]

Don't think it's added yet.

Also, I'm not sure if resilience is flat out being removed or what. There's a new 30% nerf to pvp dmg, so I dunno wtf BGs are gonna be like for a month.

[Low Key]

woop, didn't even read this:

Spell Penetration has been replaced by PvP Power on existing items.

casters gonna be raping for a while?

[Low Key]

seriously messed up how powerful arms warriors are with the right glyphs/spec for leveling

first quest in NR - bot accidentally pulls 5 mobs at the same time, ends up killing them all with only 1 cooldown (sweeping strikes) and ending at 97% hp, no potion
