    Tribute to Insanity, 09/23 Hotfixes, Blue posts

    World 2nd "A Tribute to Insanity" by Juggernaut
    Juggernaut (US-Mal'ganis) is the 2nd guild in the world to complete A Tribute to Insanity one week after Premonition's world first. Congratulations to them.



    Recent In-Game Fixes - September 2009 - 9/23/09
    [blizzquote author=Bornakk]Listed below are recent fixes we have applied to the game. Keep in mind that some of these changes may not be active until after the realm has been restarted. (Source)

    09/23/09
    • The Val'kyr Twins will now heal for more in Heroic difficulties and ignore any heal dampening effects.
    • Koralon now pauses after casting Blazing Embers before casting Burning Breath.
    • Reclaimed Thunderstrike and Reinforced Thunderstrike will now properly grant attack power to druids in Cat Form, Bear Form, and Dire Bear Form as listed in the item tooltip.

    Experience gains in Battlegrounds Increased
    [blizzquote="Crygil;]The reduced experience in Alterac Valley is due to the fact that Battleground experience is based off of the level of the Battleground. Characters level 70-79 are no longer getting experience based on level 80 characters. As a result of this, we are now able to do an across-the-board increase to experience gains from all Battlegrounds in order to make sure that no Battleground feels too unrewarding in terms of experience. We have also made it so the experience bonus from heirloom items works properly in Battlegrounds.

    AP Debuff in raids and important buffs/debuffs (Reminder: Raidcomp!)
    The original concern was for a 10-player group. We don't assume an AP debuff for a 10-player raid, though it is certainly nice to have. We assume you have it in a 25-player raid. We make some assumptions about the most important buffs and debuffs for larger raids, particularly those trying the heroic / hard mode content. Those include things like Replenishment, Fort, Kings, Gift, Bloodlust / Heroism, CoE, the AP debuff, Sunder Armor, the attack speed debuff, and maybe Scorch and a few others. Even in those cases you don't need every buff / debuff the game offers and even if you're missing one of the big ones, you can overcome that with enough skill (or gear). The bosses don't do an instant berserk if they detect you are missing Demo Shout. Yes, it will be harder without. Hard modes are for guilds capable of doing hard modes. Normal modes are for almost everyone.

    Fortunately, Demo Shout isn't hard to get. No, you can't just randomly assemble any 10 characters and have a strong raid comp. But you certainly have a lot more flexibility in how you assemble your groups than in the BC content, and the proof of that is in the enormous diversity of raids that are beating the encounters.

    Questlines related to Varimathras completable again in 3.3
    A bronze whelp delivers the following note, which certainly doesn't seem to be in Sylvanas' hand:

    Deathhorne, You're right. Someone has to fill the void and take care of business. I'll take that scroll from you when I get to my post.

    - B

    There's no further signature, but oddly, it seems to be dated "3.3"... (Source)

    Ram Racing reset changes to 18 hours
    I'm just popping in to confirm this resets every 18 hours, not 12 as has been the case in previous years. [...] It's every 18 hours from when you last did it, and no, there's no place to check when your time will be up.

    [...] The idea is it's meant to be done once a day. The 18 hour reset is there so the time is more flexible for people who might do it later one day and earlier the next, as opposed to, say, a 23 hour reset which would be a significant detriment to those with limited but inconsistent time to play. (Source)

    Priest
    Shadow Priests
    In the case of Shadow priests, we thought damage was a little low and made a very small adjustment. Many Shadow priests think their dps is still unacceptably low, but we don't agree. (That also doesn't mean we won't make changes in the future. We do change our minds.) (Source)

    Rogue
    Vanish Bugs
    Vanish failing is a bug, but it's a hard one to fix, and rogues are dominant in both PvE and PvP despite of it, so it's also not a "all hands on deck" problem either. (Source)

    My god... /facepalm!!!

    /cry

    Well, are they admitting that the Paladins/DK's/Warrior's DPS is too high then!?

    Coz, with msg from Ghostcrawler, he could aswell say: hyrbids are supposed to be shit.. oh wait, at least the Spriest/Shammy/Moonkins...

    According to blizzard:

    Paladins : Lovedolls

    Priests : Swineflu

    B? Balnazzar?

    First guess, even though it doesn't make much sense. Unless she's getting a majordomo who is not a Dreadlord.
    Served steaming hot, right out of the waffle grill. With just the right amount of STFU poured on top.

    God damn it blizzard...How is it fair that mages can faceroll 2 buttons (3.2.2 arcane spam) and do at least 1k more dps than I do with similar gear when I have to press at least 6 buttons...

    I guess a better example is feral druids, they are near the top of meters I assumed this is because they are very difficult to play (not assuming facemauler or easymode addons), why don't shadow priests get the same treatment?

    perhaps even more impressive than Premonition's kill considering the FoK nerfs, GZ guys!

    ofc you dont care, thats why you write about it.


    Youre just like me, i really dont care about the US vs EU thing but how come so many US guilds get this achievements....maybe US guilds started to get money to play? Or did the social system in the US get better.



    Its cool to not care (Y)

    Why are they announcing world second? why are people still impressed by the top guilds killing stuff. It is what they are paid to do. They have some of the best players, the best connections, and the best computers. Its no surprise they can beat the new content in a teen game almost as soon as it comes out.
