Brox. Interesting.

Brox. Interesting.

Broxigar?

Would Saberon be the http://wowpedia.org/Rock_flayer from Outland from the destruction of Draenor?

Meh, I doubt it. If you notice, ogres have tiger-like pelts in their caves. There are no tigers in Outland.

EDIT: As far as "Brox" - could be Broxigar. The only other "Brox" is one of the heads of an ogre in Twilight Highlands known as Za'brox.

It's not anything new.. Look up a saurok.

[Krazzorx]

At the very, very start it's usually very fast phased. Decently normal, it's basicly a way to also strike a stable build.

Ok, that makes sense.

Do you really expect them to come up with an entirely new skeleton for a random mob?

They re-use skeletons for everything. They have to.

Mogu, Saurok, Jin'yu, Grummle are some of the re-hashes in MoP.

If you expect them to make a brand new skeleton for a single mob in an expansion, then you better get off the high horse that is your expectation level.

[Paula Deen]

First off:
I am sad they are pulling these builds out so fast. It means no more sandboxes

Second:
I am anxious to see what Ashran looks like now that it appears to be near complete and have trees, something not present in the previous builds.

Edit: Maybe the Alliance and Horde bases will actually be attached to the ground now and not floating in mid-air ala the Skywall

[Aeluron Lightsong]

First Rehash evar.

The Broken(They used Tauren Skeleton) Teehee

When someone has reached that level of cynicism, there is no use in saying anything. Giving examples from BC and Wrath, other MMOs, etc. doesn't register. Just ignore and move on.

Hey, if more builds means an actual F&F invite is beeing send out, by all mean, push all the builds in the world

[Paula Deen]

If Marla reads this, when can we expect to see a new map :3

Hey, I just said I was sad, I didn't say I didn't want it to continue.

[Chickat]

Push all the builds.

Speaking of, why do they keep uploading builds no one uses? Are they purely stress testing the new file system?

Blizzard is testing the Alpha, have been for some time. We are not testing the Alpha. I honestly and truthfully think half the staff that they said they picked up for Warlords is just testing. As per my theories from months ago.

Huh, isn't this the same build that the Blizzard employees would be playing? And another reason could be just to have a more solid testing ground. But that's a possibility also.

That dude is clearly trolling at this point. Don't feed the trolls.

[Paula Deen]

I do have some feedback on the Battle.net Launcher, I have already given feedback to Blizzard, but I am unable to change my download speed and its rather annoying that I cannot download things and play because when I am downloading it uses all of my speed up and my pings jump to 500-600..... wish it would change when I set the rates. Anyone else noticing this?

You're probably right, but there was one statement by Simca about the first F&F wave has me confused. Itll be easier to see depending on what happens when those invites go out he mentioned would happen this week or next (he said more likely next)

Not going to explain more of what is confusing me and why as I doubt I'd accurately communicate it and my questions should be answered next week at latest.
