    An Idea for Patch 7.1

    ***Alright so i just have a quick suggestion that has been asked of before by many people, i'm just going to refloat that boat.

    Isle of Kezan
    So bit of fun content they could add as a bit of a bonus for 7.1 could be Isle of Kezan rebuilt for all of you're gambling needs, im talking darkmoon faire on steroids BUT WITH GOLD all kinds of fun minigames achievements mounts, pets, toys you name it just fun stuff. Lets face it guys we have way to much gold now a days cause of Warlords of Garrisons we need a good gold sink.

    But that's not it!, Trade Prince Gallywix has had fuck all to do with anything in-game since cata so in the mean time he's been building a gambling party ship where PvPers may jump on in a gladiator pit in the middle of the ship and Duel 1v1 in front of specating players! But that's not all you can BET on dueling players in the arena!!, They could add dueling brackets so it is similar to the brawlers guild system where there are ranks so on say rank 10s and go against rank 10s or something along those lines.

    Now for the PVE side of the content,

    Vault of Kezan
    The goblins didn't have alot of time to "evacuate" their loot from the great vault of kezan, and now there are new owners who have taken over the vault with an evil purpose. (This raid could be similar to the Vault of Archavon/Tol'barad Prison or be a full raid let you guys decide that one)

    And even more of a bonus maybe a fun new 5 man Dungeon too

    This is probably meant an unique side occupation such as the Brawler's Guild, which was added with 5.1 and not involved in the MOP lore either.

    I like the idea as I also enjoyed the Gold Saucer in FFXIV.

    I would absolutely love a Casino type island that's strictly for fun. The OP'S idea, if implemented, cause lead to having a place in game that wouldn't get old, no matter what expansion or patch it is

    Would gambling raise the age rating in most countries? So reduce the size of the target audience, bad business move, Activison will not let that happen.

    I think the FFXIV solution to this would be better, a own currency with a starter pack sold for gold while everything else can won with mini-games and "gambling", in this case I thought it would be considered as "gambling", while gold has an value because game-time can be sold that currency will not have, as it will not be tradeable and exists only for the mounts, pets, toys etc. sold at the casino zone (so just like a new Darkmoon Faire but permanent).

    Just an aside and FYI: Brawler's Guild was recently reported on wowhead to be going on hiatus for Legion. Source

    Different countries and regions had issues with some of the things that could be considered gambling before. So I really doubt they add a feature that is clearly gambling.

    Canada wasn't going to sell the game when they added the inscription cards and some other feature of Cata because of the gambling it involved. While this might be a feature some people would enjoy it would be a can of worms for Blizzard.

    I'd definitely enjoy it but I think there's something against gambling in Warcraft.
    Check out my game, Craftsmith, on the Google Play Store!

    God... it's a fucking video game...

    By that, Blizz should ban every player who plays casino in Trade District "/roll 1-30 for x1, 31-60 for 2x, 90-99 x3 gold"

    It is a game and gambling is illegal in many places. So in the minds of the people that live there it has no place in a game and games that have it have no place there. Blizz also used to suspend accounts of people that would publicly gamble in trade doing the very things you are talking about.

    In a game where the underlying answer to every conflict is kill people and steal their stuff, its weird that gambling is where folks draw the line.

    You cannot steal from players, so there is no real stealing. But yes, politics are wired like that. Murdering millions of humanoids and taking their stuff? No problem. Gambling some virtual money? No go guy, no go.

    That is proberly the entire idea behind it. The Goblins don't care about the Legion, they just want to earn money, and they see their chance with the arrival of the Legion, to earn some money from people, who think the world is gonna end anyway


    You can even have an intro, thats like " The world is ending! The Legion has comed! Why end your days as a poor mut, when you can end them as the richest goblin in town! Come to the Kezan Golden Isles! Win money to enjoy your last days on Azeroth and spend them on women, booze and VIOLENCE!!!!" I think that would be fun
    May the lore be great and the stories interesting. A game without a story, is a game without a soul. Value the lore and it will reward you with fun!

    Don't let yourself be satisfied with what you expect and what you seem as obvious. Ask for something good, surprising and better. Your own standards ends up being other peoples standard.

    That's a lot to ask of a in-between raid tier patch.

    I think what most people would expect to be 'good' from an X.1 or X.3 patch would be a world quest campaign (Operation Shieldwall/Dominance Offensive, Battlefield: Barrens), a progression of the story, maybe a new Battleground if Blizz is feeling generous.

    X.2 and X.4 should be whole new zones with new raids.

    Yeah, and I bet killing is also illegal in many countries and yet every single quest in the game is about to kill XYZ.

    And games that make killing more than "push some buttons and someone ceases to be standing there" get a higher rating. Game that straight-up have you do complicated actions, such as putting a plastic bag around someone's head, in order to cause a more realistic death get taken out of retail before they even sale.
    Soothing Mist:"Healing them for a minor amount every 0.5 sec, until you take any other action."
    Jade Serpent Statue: "The statue will also begin casting Soothing Mist on your target. healing for 50% as much as yours. "
    [What's half of minor?]
    "Statue casts Soothing Mist at a nearby ally for toddler healing."
