    Classic "not a bug" List from Devs

    I found this on WoWhead this morning and thought I'd share it. Gave me a great chuckle reading the list.

    The only one that surprised me was the /sit crit proc bit. There was a lot of discussion around this. There were two camps on the matter A) Sit did not cause crit and B) Sit causes Crit and triggers effect.

    Turns out it was that Sit did cause crit but no effect.

    So Taurens are supposed to have like a 12 yard hit range??

    Pretty much no reason to level as 2H fury until 40 now, going as arms and picking up tactical mastery will make tanking while leveling significantly less tedious while saving a respec cost increase too.

    Kinda disappointed they don't get the racial mount they had in early early vanilla. The one where if they ran in a straight line for x amount of yards, they'd get on all fours and they'd run at mount speed.

    Yes.

    Taurens are the largest race in vanilla WoW. They're MUCH bigger than a Human or an Orc.

    Crazy huh?!

    I knew they had a larger hit box, I just didn't know it was supposed to be that huge.

    FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..

    I am pretty sure that /sit did trigger a crit as well as the effects (like reckoning) back in the days, that a paladin one shot Kazzak by dueling with a feral druid (fast 1.0 atk spd) and sitting to store the reckoning charges. This was later changed to reckoning had only 4 charges max. , but reckoning (as well as other similar talents) triggering from a sitting player WAS how vanilla worked.

    That "not a bug" list is actually trying to fool us.

    It is how it worked very EARLY on, it is not how it worked in 1.12.
