Yet another Timewalking loot post ( As directed by GM)
Opened timewalking Cache before hotfix
Season 4... Just old dungeons and new ilvl?
MMO-Champion
When can we see something new and fresh in WoW BG's? Something similar to Huttball in SWTOR. That BG was the most fun I had playing that game and I would love to see it in WoW.
Anyone else have any ideas for something new?

Something like huttball would be amazing in wow, although I'm sure it's too difficult for blizzard to program a passable object reliably.

See how dumb that model is?

IIRC, that was one of the core mechanics of Azshara in SSC. Get it? Core? Originally Posted by Dazzy

Yes. it was. you kill the green elemental, loot it's core, and are immobilized until it's passed to another player (who then gets immobilized) Originally Posted by Destructinator
Combined with trying to manage the remaining stream of adds, it was a massive nightmare of a fight until you figured out how all the pieces were expected to move.

Vashj, not Azshara. Had me thinking for a few minutes. Thought you were talking about Azshara crater. Originally Posted by Destructinator

That's it, my bad. Haven't been back since it was current content, mostly because of that fight. Originally Posted by Flaks

honestly i dont think it would be. they already have the special action button that can pop up. all they would need to do is make it so it is tied to having the ball. you click it and it passes it to a friendly target. Originally Posted by Dazzy

Something like Payload from Team Fortress 2.
Classic AV as a World BG (like Wintergrasp).
The DotA Battleground.Steve Irwin died the same way he lived. With animals in his heart.

If I understand correctly, there's already a passable object in the Sha of Fear encounter on Heroic. Originally Posted by Porimlys

people will go on the forums complaining about people who use a /click extraactionbutton macro have an unfair advantage over people who click it manually. Originally Posted by Porimlys

fun.
either way, it was a good day when i deleted my Vash macro, my sha of fear macro is no fun either. neither of those mechanics were fun." I need a sec, my wrists hurt from spamming slam so hard. Playing cleave vs cleave is tough stuff guys"

hutt ball is murder ball. kotmogu is murder ball. the end zone is the middle and there's enough CTF already in the game.

Id like huttball/payload/dota and a team deathmatch where the opponents get buffed when you kill them to try and keep it even.

Huttball was the worst. I hope it never curses WoW with its presence.
I wouldn't mind the others though.
