Crimson Fire Hawk and Salamander Hunter, Bnet bound items, Guild Recruitment

[Boubouille]

Today we'll take a look at the client strings of Patch 4.1. Assuming that everything goes as planned today (new patches take time!), things should get interesting soon (starting today with fun models)!

"Salamander Hunter" and Crimson Fire Hawk
The new model of Ragnaros was very popular yesterday, let's kick it up a notch with the model of Crimson Fire Hawk and a new monster, the "Salamander Hunter" (who looks a lot like Majordomo Executus).

More to come soon.

Bind on Battle.net account items?
The first hint of bound to Battle.net account items appeared in this patch.

• ITEM_BIND_TO_BNETACCOUNT = "Binds to Battle.net account";
• ITEM_BNETACCOUNTBOUND = "Battle.net Account Bound";

Cast on key down
This patch finally gives the possibility to cast spells on key down instead of key up, making you more awesome in raids and battlegrounds!

• ACTION_BUTTON_USE_KEY_DOWN = "Cast action keybinds on key down";
• OPTION_TOOLTIP_ACTION_BUTTON_USE_KEY_DOWN = "Action button keybinds will respond on key down, rather than on key up.";

Extra regeneration stats in character sheet
More information seems to be available on your character sheet if you're a rogue, a hunter, or a Death Knight!

• STAT_ENERGY_REGEN = "Energy Regen";
• STAT_ENERGY_REGEN_TOOLTIP = "Energy regenerated every second.";
• STAT_FOCUS_REGEN = "Focus Regen";
• STAT_FOCUS_REGEN_TOOLTIP = "Focus regenerated every second.";
• STAT_RUNE_REGEN = "Rune Speed";
• STAT_RUNE_REGEN_FORMAT = "%.2fs";
• STAT_RUNE_REGEN_TOOLTIP = "The recharge time for each of your Runes.";

Guild Recruitment
Patch 4.1 will apparently introduce the in-game guild recruitment system promised during Blizzcon! So far we don't have a lot of details on how it will work but the interface can be accessed on PTRs, we'll probably see more of it in later phases of testing.

• LOOKINGFORGUILD = "Looking for Guild";
• NEWBIE_TOOLTIP_LOOKINGFORGUILDTAB = "Allows you to find a guild.";
• BROWSE_GUILDS_BUTTON = "Browse Guilds";
• BROWSE_GUILDS_NUM_MEMBERS = "%d members";
• BROWSE_GUILDS_TAB = "Browse Guilds";
• GUILDBANK_AWARD_MONEY_SUMMARY_FORMAT = "A total of %s was deposited last week from Guild Perk: Cash Flow ";
• GUILDINFOTAB_APPLICANTS = "Requests (%d)";
• GUILDINFOTAB_APPLICANTS_NONE = "Requests";
• GUILDINFOTAB_INFO = "Info";
• GUILDINFOTAB_RECRUITMENT = "Recruitment";
• GUILD_AVAILABILITY = "Availability";
• GUILD_AVAILABILITY_WEEKDAYS = "Weekdays";
• GUILD_AVAILABILITY_WEEKENDS = "Weekends";
• GUILD_CLOSE_RECRUITMENT = "Unlist My Guild";
• GUILD_MEMBERSHIP_REQUEST_SENT = "Guild Request Sent";
• GUILD_OPEN_RECRUITMENT = "List My Guild";
• GUILD_PLAYSTYLE = "Guild Playstyle";
• GUILD_PLAYSTYLE_CASUAL = "Casual";
• GUILD_PLAYSTYLE_HARDCORE = "Hardcore";
• GUILD_PLAYSTYLE_MODERATE = "Moderate";
• GUILD_RANK_UNAVAILABLE = "Rank unavailable";
• GUILD_RANK_UNAVAILABLE_AUTHENTICATOR = "Only characters with an Authenticator attached to their account can obtain this rank.";
• GUILD_RECRUITMENT_ANYLEVEL = "Any Level";
• GUILD_RECRUITMENT_LEVEL = "Level";
• GUILD_RECRUITMENT_MAXLEVEL = "Max Level";
• -- Looking for Guild Parameters
• LFGUILD_PARAM_CASUAL = 1;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_MODERATE = 2;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_HARDCORE = 3;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_WEEKDAYS = 4;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_WEEKENDS = 5;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_TANK = 6;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_HEALER = 7;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_DAMAGE = 8;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_ANY_LEVEL = 9;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_MAX_LEVEL = 10;
• LFGUILD_PARAM_LOOKING = 11;

MY FIRST THOUGHT TOO LMAO!!!!

[dubbelbasse]

On another note - I like that they are pushing out the Looking for Guild feature now. However I do wonder how much it'll be used. For instance, my guild is in the process of recruiting atm so obviously we want to be seen everywhere possible, but we would have to take our recruitment outside of that tool with website application etc, rendering it a bit obsolete. Just a thought.
