Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest - Legendary Staff "Delegation" Quest Shattered Oath (US - Emerald Dream) has been progressing nicely on the Legendary Staff questline and released a video of the Delegation quest to recover the Branch of Nordrassil after defeating Volcanus the Firelord.
The video below is from a Restoration Druid point of view, they also released one from an Arcane Mage PoV.
Description from the video Poor guy. Three phase fight, pretty easy. If you wipe you must do all the phases again.
Phase 1: Harbingers of Flame are the same trash from Alysrazor but more of them, just assign interrupters.
Phase 2: The Tormented Protector should be tanked away from the middle. He'll root the entire raid then cast a 1,000 yard knockback that will knock you off the edge to your death unless you have his roots debuff on you. The roots also tick for 10,000 a second and should be dispelled after his stomp.
Burning Treants spawn in the middle, move slowly and pulse a hellfire around them that will kill you if you stand near them, ranged should kill and knockback them.
Phase 3: Volcanus himself summons slow moving columns of killsyou and pulses a steadily increasing AoE so you should bloodlust on him.

Dungeon Journal bugs and accuracy
We are looking at the concerns over the faces blocking the map view in the Dungeon Journal. We're aware of this concern and may provide an option to turn them off at a future point in time. We'll provide information on this though when we are able.
As for the concerns over accuracy, there is always the potential for information to change based on adjustments made to the bosses and the fights. Overall though, the Dungeon Journal should be seen as an accurate representation of the boss fights and abilities. We have seen a lot of misunderstandings or inaccurate information provided via external sources and hope that the Dungeon Journal can better shore up those external sources with its information.
As for some concerns over missing loot, we did purposefully leave out "grab-bag" items. Meaning, items that have the potential for dropping on multiple bosses were not added to the listing of items. We may choose to change this decision at a future point in time if we feel that it's causing additional confusion. For now though, just be aware that these items do not appear in the listed loot tables. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
25 Daily Quests Limit
Is there a point in daily quest limits? Yes. Of course there is. Dailies allow people the opportunity to gain (in some cases) reputation as well as money or skills. We also don't want people feeling that they need to do 100+ daily quests a day just because they can either. It should also be about making choices on an individual basis about what quests you want to work on and still not get overwhelmed by the amount of dailies you feel you need to do each day.
People have asked us if we'd ever raise the cap to this, and we can't say we never will. If the time comes that we think it's a good idea, we'll address the possibility then. For now, it's as it is. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

New Warcraft Fan Art
The Blizzard Fan Art Section has been updated with four new pieces of fan artwork.
that said, is the whole 'blouse falling down, tits hanging out' thing REALLY nescessary? it seems it was just added as a cheap lure that lowers the overall impression of the piece - it's no longer tasteful art, it's just borderline smut.
OMG, I totally missed that, I just saw delicious cake, with cherry on top. Boy I'd like to pop THAT cherry!
it's a floating plate, the cherry is closer to us than the belf's ear. that said, is the whole 'blouse falling down, tits hanging out' thing REALLY nescessary? it seems it was just added as a cheap lure that lowers the overall impression of the piece - it's no longer tasteful art, it's just borderline smut.
Nothing wrong with tits hanging out!
Yeah sorry for being a man. God created us that way
don't get me wrong, i like tits as much as the next man - but it's just really cheap and unnecessary in this picture, which would otherwise be a nice piece of work. why put so much detail into all these little aspects of the picture, then put a semi-exposed breast in the centre that's going to demand everyone's attention anyway? the picture certainly didn't GAIN anything from the blatant sexualisation, and it LOSES focus on the other aspects of the picture.
Cleavage/breasts arguments aside it's a great B-Elf piece . The scenery is amazing and creative~ Even though i just don't see how the extra view on the bust contributes to the artwork more besides a sexual lure (which is oh so common and typical of todays artwork I just don't find it too original/innovative most of the time unless it's done in a unusual way), which is fine and all xD But i can see the early morning argument as well, but i have my doubts about that in the artist's mind ^^~

I looked at the art and thought they were all very nicely drawn then saw your comment and had to look at the art again because the "tits hanging out" part made me think "What the hell is this person talking about?"
To answer your question :
Yes it is necessary.
Picture a hot day with you sitting in some work area, are you going to be wearing a lot of clothes? No, it's hot and they'll just be annoying and distracting you from what you're working on.
After a lot of work are you going to care about your clothes? No, you'll be focused on whatever you're working on and you want to finish it.
Now to the main question...is she showing anything that we can't see in WoW? NO, there are plenty of people that run around in towns with a lot less clothing.
I think it fits and complaining about cleavage there is cheap and unnecessary.
why do they accept stuff that is clearly fapping material! i want picturez of people killing eachother and mucsular men showing their chestshair! this is serious buissness...

How much excess body heat can you possibly generate doing figure painting? When I see people working with shirts off they're usually outside doing construction or roofing or something, lifting heavy objects. I wear a shirt when I draw and I'm totally fine even on hot day. I'm with the opinion that the artist wasn't thinking THAT deeply when drawing the picture and just threw in the tits for cheap sexualisation as with MANY other anime pics.
We're entitled to have negative criticism of art so please spare us the "no one's forcing you to look at it" because that's not a phrase you can throw around when people are critiquing things.
If you're working up a sweat just painting figurines while only in a silk gown then you likely have a metabolic disorder or a hypothalamus issue going on..
It was annoying for me to and I've been using vent for years, I'm surprised no one said shut the fuck up whoever is causing the beeping sound.
The thing is everyone has to turn his sound off and every time you bring a new player to the raid you need to tell him to turn it off. And someone will forget to turn if off. Naah, I'll stick to TS.
25 Daily Quests Limit
Is there a point in daily quest limits?
There is no good reason to limit dailys. You could remove the limit and people still could not do the same quest twice a day. Once you are done you have to wait until the next day. You see, there is already a restriction. People can't get unlimited amounts of reputations.
Questing is not the best and not only way to make money, it doesn't make sense to add all kinds of heavy-handed restrictions and limits.

The game should not be balanced around what imaginary people may be thinking. It's like limiting the number of hours people can play because someone may feel he has to play 24 hours each day.
What's with the anime infusion everywhere ?! What does Japanese Anime/Manga have to do with the WoW universe ? Apparently it's not nice/fun anymore unless it's anime style... I understand the ideea, they need to compensate ... but it really doesn't fit in. I find it amusingly ridiculous. And a bit sad.
