    Ye gods. They are taking out Have Group Will Travel.

    My unhappy warlock is remembering with horror the days when raid chat was filled with SUMMON PLS!!!! and whisper windows opening everywhere with ppl asking for summons while I'm trying to get two ppl to stop dancing and prancing around long enough to click on the goddam summoning portal!



    Jeezus. What are they thinking?

    Well...they wanted people to travel out in the world more.

    Now there will be TWO players instead of ONE. LOL!

    Don't worry, I see them revoking it; It's a really really dumb idea that serves... absolutely no purpose other then well wasting more time

    I liked it for low level stuff..Like summoning friends and guildies to run them to old dungeons and stuff..I didnt use it often, but it was very nice when I did.

    Meh annoying. Now I can't stone out during breaks, fix reforges on upgrades and then get a summon back at the end of the break. Coffins don't stay up long enough especially with the rest of the raid afk for a few minutes.

    I like the fact that when a toon is level 65, 73, 75 79, 84 they can summon a higher level toon to their location so they can help them do the few remaining group quests still in the game.

    Ring of Blood, Conquest Hold, Amphitheatre of Anguish, Valhalas and Crucible of Carnage.


    But yeah, looks like warlocks just got a bump up in the usefulness department.



    Hey, at least it doesnt take a soulstone to summon each person.

    I'm glad it's being removed. It feels like a slap in the face each time I attempt to summon a fellow raider and start up the channel, and someone else just runs up next to me and casts "Have Group Will Travel" all alone just like that summoning everyone with no effort at all.

    Wow, they are really removing it? Disappointing

    What is the reasoning behind this move?
    Fentooooooooooooooooooooooon!!!!!!!!

    If they want people to see the world (talking exclusively about pandaria here) they could just make it unusable on the Continent and in the lvl 85+ raids/dungeons. Removing it completely seems kind of drastic.

    people will still not travel anywhere, they will ask the warlocks to summon them. yay more annoying stuff to do before the raid starts...

    i suppose they are removing the summoning stones in front of raids/dungeons as well to help the cause?

    This is more or less my mindset. But then again, they're removing flying to increase the "experience" of the expansion (ie, the time-sink aspect of being forced to run to whatever different place).

    Personally, if they have to "remove" it, I'd prefer they'd replace it with something that can work to summon your entire raid to a summoning stone, WITHOUT having to click the buttons over and over and over again.

    It's a quality of life issue. I really, REALLY do not need to manually fly from Uldum to Caverns of Time and all the way down the hallway before finally reaching the raid instance, every raid day, every single week, months after the patch came out.

    I disagree, it was one of the most efficient things in the game. Why does LFG teleport you to your dungeon then? REMOVE LFG BY THAT ******* LOGIC.

    Oh yea the days of AQ40, the horror being a Warlock and having to summon 20 people to Silithus. Although I do think removing the perk is a good idea. Let people go out into the world again, and in a raid you can always be summoned by a Warlock.

    Ah, right. Because now to get all of your guildies together in any sort of timely manner requires you to have a warlock in the run.

    I don't mind them taking it away if they actually do. I like the uniqueness of being able to drop a summoning stone and tbh all hgwt did was promote more laziness since people would either take their time or just not gather at the instance at all because they figured like hey someone will summon me......at least this was my experience with mass summon. Since our summon is tied to a small cooldown people will hopefully make more effort to be ready by the time the summons go out. Lastly I felt all mass summoning did was destroy world pvp even further it just crippled the already small chance of encountering a player of the opposite faction for a small skirmish.

    Have Group Will Travel. was the best thing that happend in Cataclysm.

    It increased the quality of life in game . They got to understand some of us have limited time to play their game ( job, kids...) and removing a useless timesink (flying with the speed of a snail to destination) mean we had more time to actually play the game . Instead of playing "fly from point A to B for 8 minutes and 34 seconds".

    You know, is not fun to play "fly from point A to B for 8 minutes and 34 seconds".
