Looks like they killed horridon. I fully expect them to be stuck on council for a while, at least until the weekend. It also wouldn't completely surprise me if they skipped it, although they went the first week in hof not killing anything because they didn't skip vizier, so maybe not.

New Patch Notes:

Patch 5.2.16701 has made it so playing the game is entirely optional and, in most cases, impossible. If you find you cannot log in to the game due to client errors please sit tight: we're working on a patch to patch our patch because, Yo dawg, we heard you like patches.

Lovely Blizzard support..I opened a ticket on Saturday after killing Oondasta because I didn't even get gold (I was alive when he died, so it's not like he died while I was running back and that's why). 5 days later, I get a response that says:

Greetings,

Hope this will keep the fires burning and the stories rolling... the adventures epic and the root beer cold.

Hello I have read your issue and there are many reasons at this point as to why you did not receive loot from Oondasta... But im guess as you are not locked to the encounter and are able to kill him again. is that the kill did not happen on your home realm... but like I said you are not locked so go get him again,.

All feedback is appreciated you can make any suggestions or bug reports in-game by using the question mark. These ways of reporting issues or things that you believe need to be changed in-game go directly to the development dept.
I'm not locked to it because it's a new god damn week because it took 5 days to answer the ticket...and on top of that, I love that the answer is basically "oh whatever just kill him again". I have absolutely no interest in killing it again, I just want to get whatever I was supposed to get the first time.

Got a response to my follow up ticket while I was typing this, basically tells me everything I already know about the fight (can't get loot cross realm make sure you're on your realm, don't be running back when he dies, etc, all **** that doesn't apply to me), and that I'm **** out of luck pretty much since they can't "restore" things that never existed. Cool.

Took way too long to kill Lei Shen tonight. It's an easy as **** fight, but easy to herp derp on.

finally getting into the brawlers guild stuff. first rank was lol easy as a hunter, never got hit once. loving the new epic bow that dropped off my first normal MSV run ever, with a scope that does more than a piddly crit increase (though I do love me some crit)
03-15-2013 , 11:45 AM
I switched from Windsong to Jade Spirit and I'm very happy with it.

So, dualboxing with RAF is pretty OP

Would be nice if the Isle of Thunder PVP dailies gave as much rep as the PVE ones. I kinda like them better. Less running around and bull**** in general. (And if you're valor capped it's kinda nice to be able to get something other than.. gold and hundreds of unusable coins)
03-18-2013 , 06:02 PM
I liked the pvp dailies as well. I was in the middle of fighting 3 mobs when I was ganked by a feral Druid. After I rezzed I saw him killing an Alliance Warlock nearby. I healed up and started attacking him. He finished up the Warlock and then we started fighting again. Frost Mage burst consists of up to 3 instant casts. PvE numbers here - if I have a proc I'll hit for about 170k, without the proc it hits for about 9k. I got him down to 10k HP twice but I wasn't able to finish him off. The second time he managed to get away and stealthed. I started to Evocate (WHICH THE BIGGEST JOKE OF THE PATCH BY THE WAY!) but he came back and put together a couple of stuns and managed to kill me before I could get back control of my character.

If I had actually used Alter Time or my PvP Trinket I think I would have killed him. But I didn't so I didn't. It took actually dying a couple times to get in to the proper mindset again.

I thought the PvP dailies went much faster than the PvE ones even factoring in some world PvP. It was just one set of quests, when the PvE ones are usually 2 or 3 sets. If you don't care about the 60 or so Valor, I would do the PvP ones all the time - even if it means being flagged. I'll probably stand by that statement until I encounter a griefer.

Do you guys Valor cap regularly? If I get to the 700's in a week I consider that a full week's worth of work. That's 100 dailies and a couple LFR's.
03-18-2013 , 06:10 PM
im lucky if i get 500 valor a week. I do like these new dailies on the island though and i need bonus roll tokens again so i capped last week and would have capped this week too but i got distracted by hunting those rares for the mounts and rep tokens.
03-18-2013 , 06:11 PM
I capped my valor for the first time yesterday.
03-18-2013 , 06:17 PM
I always cap on my main, but pretty much only because I constantly switch specs and need two gear sets.
03-18-2013 , 06:29 PM
I always cap valor on my main, never touch any alts.
03-18-2013 , 07:14 PM
Always cap on main by like Wednesday. Main on different server as all alts, so no bonus to valor for them... FU valor of the ancients!

I would absolutely do the pvp dailies, but it's about 500-600 rep less per day, which, after you get revered and buy the thinger to double rep gains, is 1000-1200 rep less. Per day.

Also, why did no one tell me you could roll many bonus rolls per week in LFR? Got an agi trinket with crit (/jizz) while trying to get the Chimera of Fear today.

Getting a pretty sweet set of gear rounded up in case I ever want to do challenge modes. Just need to find 4 other allies.

The Valor rewards from the 5.2 quests aren't anything special. All you get from them once you hit exalted is the ability to buy a 496 ring. You can buy a 496 cloak at Revered.

I can see why you might want the rep if you had an lol blue cloak or something though.

But really, squishing all those roaches is its own reward.
03-19-2013 , 03:32 PM
Omfg, I want to punch in the face every person who had a hand in making that quest go live. Every coder, every beta tester, every single person who did not say, "Wait a minute, this quest is worse than AIDS, we can't possibly put this in the game!"

But yeah, I had just bought a valor cloak before seeing I had the rep to buy the even nicer ilvl/stat cloak from them. Sold the old cloak back for vp and the new one will be my first purchase today. Hoping to have enough left over for a ring or something.
03-19-2013 , 09:59 PM
So uhh, dumb question but how do you get the new tokens for bonus rolls in ToT?
