Cataclysm Guild Perks, Stonecore Boss Videos

I absolutely love the guild perks. <3

I'm confused,... how exactly do you obtain these Guild Perks? They look really awesome but will my casual 10 man raiding guild have access to all of them?

The only thing I don't like about these guild perks is that the "Honorable Mention" and "Everyone's A Hero" are gained at different ranks, though Im quite sure that it will be possible to pick which one of them you want for your guild. Obviously serious raiding guilds would like to gain more Heroism points as fast as possible whereas PvP oriented guilds would most likely need the Honor points more.

If you seriously think that these aren't massive buffs that screw over people just like heirlooms do, go try leveling a character right now 1-80 with NO heirlooms at all.

Totally agree with this one.

Extra 1k on each 10k looted isn't really nothing.
This 15% mining, skinning and disenchanting (!!!!!) bonus is somewhat insane. Someone without 15% bonus simply won't be able to compete in a saturated enchanting material market.

People, who for some reason preffer to stay unguilded or in few person guilds, are getting quite massively screwed (read: forced to join some "We're frendly social guild, lf everything!").

Gonna see how it works, in a worst case scenario I'll be forced to hire some drones to level one or two of my personal guilds up for free repair money or similar

How would this work?! I mean, how can you gain 15% extra on 1 ore? or 2 flowers? or 1 skin? ._O Anyone care to explain? im stumped. Should it be possible "Gives the player a chance to gain an additional resource gained from Mining, Skinning, Herbalism, and Disenchanting by 15%."?

Easy.
You have 33% chance to have one herb, 33 % chance to have 2 herbs and 33% to have 3 herbs.
After the bonus that you could have 18% to have 1 herb, 41 % to have 2 herbs, 41% to have 3.

You gain 15%.

You gain 15%.

I can see that theory working with everything but skinning. Skinning random mobs almost always yields 1 piece except on elites or bosses.

Raw 15% chance to double your loot solves everything.

The % distribution really does not matter, since all 15% loot increase means than in the long run instead of 1000 pieces you are gonna have roughly 1150 pieces of loot.

Umm im nub but wtf is heroism points

Currency that you are gonna get from 5 man heroics in Cata.

>>> 2 Increases speed while mounted by 5%. Not active in Battlegrounds or Arenas. <<<<

I`ll bet, this will not stack, with Aura, Talents or Enchants.

The majority of the content that was nerfed doesn't even directly relate to the bosses themselves, but rather the trash leading up to them (i.e. less trash, easier to kill, etc.).

WOLTK Heroics were never, ever, hard. I was playing back then. Sad thing, Naxx was even easier than most heroics (outside of Saphiron/KT) and you could jump into heroics AND Naxx with BT/Sunwell gear and clear them easily. The only moderatly hard part were the achievemnts to obtain the red proto-drake, but a few weeks into naxx, they were already a lot easier in Ilvl 213 gear, and some of them were already nerfed.

2. MMO. Enough said.

So if these are not a massive "screw you" to the unguilded and casual guilds, just double the perks for them.

And just because it is an MMO DOES NOT MEAN you have to belong to a big guild

Keep in mind that, typically rezzing someone puts them where the person rezzing them is located. :P

This would definitely make me a happy panda. I've been talking about wanting Guild Houses foreeeeever. Would be cool to be able to have spots for all those random knick-knacks we get, too... like slots for them or something to decorate said houses. :P

Especially the guild bank money, mass rez, mass summon.

I just have one question, or maybe a few but; what is going to happen to all the gold already in the guild bank, and if we have titles assigned to us as guild officers, regular members and alts with different guild perks depending on rank, what is going to happen to those?

I LoL'd.

soooooo sickkkk

I guess I have to give up on real life and devote all my life to WoW so I can be in a guild full of virgins and have an equal chance at the perks. Thanks Blizz. This is the beginning of the end of WoW. Can't wait for The Old Republic to come out.

None of those stack. So imagine, 330% is max still. Yay.

PS you guys are nerds. Guild officer titles *sniffle*. Fatasses.

What if you have your own guild, that you use to mail things to your alts, and store things in... How do you get rep with yourself? I wonder how that will work.

Lol ok sure this might be good but people saying other mmo´s copy wow now is proven to be false. This Actualy is COPY&PASTE of Age of Conans Guild Leveling . Blizzard sure dont have any creative ideas at all anymore. they had but ye its lost now

Age of Conan copied almost everything from WoW though along with almost every other MMO that has come out since WoW. If its a good idea its a good idea. Its not "stealing it", its learning what works and improving what you have.
