The alliance players are piss because apparently this expansion is all about the new horde and how they are evolving ect...

"Waaah, why do they bad guys get everything" is their whine.

I guess they're retaliating, becasue on Dawnbringer, Crossroads gets attacked every 5 minutes basically. Trying to prevent newer players from having fun. Ain't that griefing or something?

I like both of the guild mounts, good thing I play Alliance and Horde. :)
From what I understand the horde is having a hard time right now, with whatever is going on with the orc's leader, the trolls (who seem to hate everyone but the orcs) moving to a different capital, The undead is kind of just using the horde and is hardly friends with anyone in the horde other then the Blood elfs. Alliance isn't perfect but they seem to be getting along with each other better then the Horde is right now. I heard something about the Dwarves leader but if (when) that causes trouble, the alliance should still get along with each other.

Not really, it's Horde territory so the lowly Hordes can't really get attacked unless they attack first.

Heh, that reminds me of the time I was working for the Flame Keeper title in the Draenei starting area. I was with two other guildmates riding to the village flame. Out of nowhere this level 11 dwarf warrior charged me knocking me off my mount. I put one of my lvl 80 corruption dots on him and mounted up. The rest of the day we had a good laugh at the warriors expense and him knocking me off my mount.

Protip: If you see a ?? lvl character of the opposite faction flagged and you aren't don't attack them. That's just asking for a gankfest.


Anyone get a brewfest mount this year?

Yup, it's as big as the Beta client was, which took long enough to download. Worst part is I need to pack my laptop down tonight so I have time before school early tomorrow, so I can't download it while sleeping :P

:lol:
I just got enough money to reactivate my sub, but I wont be able to download 4 gigs lmao. I'm on satellite internet connection with a 500 meg DAILY bandwidth limit. LOL. After I use 500 megs, my internet shuts down for 24 hours and I can't use it until then. Not seeing how I am going to be able to do this.
This is how my net works:
-500 meg daily limit
-resets every 24 hours at 11 PM
-between 2AM and 7Am, my bandwidth is free, and I could download 90 gigs if I wanted to at that time, but obviously my net speed is so slow I'd be lucky to get 500 megs in that time period
-if I go over my allotted limit, it's locked for 24 hours

Not really sure how this is going to go down with a 4 gig download.

Actually Blizzard pretty much owned that guy :P I never saw the issue with instance farming myself, but Blizzard obviously doesn't like it so that's how it is.

EDIT: Betrayer, download it in portions, it'll take a while but at least you'll get it, not like playing without it is an option anyway.

How do you do a controlled download? I thought it just started downloading and that's pretty much it.

Not yet, but it's extremely early days yet.


Personally, I'm just REALLY enjoying the new format for Holiday bosses. One chance a day at the rare items, and you can farm as much as you like for the common drops; not to mention no more ninjas claiming they can activate the boss when they really can't. It just makes the whole thing so less stressful. :celebration:

HIGHLY disappointed with brewfest this year. I was eager to jump on my warlock today grab 5 people who hadn't used their chance to taunt Direbrew and jump in my mole machine straight to Dire Brew. Log on to find you have to queue for it, Direbrew doesn't even drop mounts or the mace or dagger. Instead I get one shot a day for a mount or other item in the 'Treasure keg" instead of the 5 chances a day like last year...where I still never even saw a ram drop. Open my bag today and got a Kodo...I already [censored] have.

I don't know about your alls servers but, the new system is pretty much better, because people can't lie and say they don't have a summon.
On my server, you couldn't go unless you HAD a summon in the first place. So this is no different, you still only get 1 try a day. And you don't have to worry about ninjas and liars.

One...take guild members, not random idiots from trade. Two, you had 5 chances last year...the mounts were apart of Coren's loot table. Meaning each of the 5 kills had a chance to drop the mount. Now, you only have the one chance per day to get the mount from the bag.

Really no need for a guild on my server, most people are guildless or just in guilds for pvp. There are only like 4 serious raiding guilds on my server, and those are top US 200 guilds. Everyone just pugs ICC 11/12 heroic on my server. :P

Nope, just 5th. :)
There are a few better than mine, but it's #5 in terms of player skill, so says all the ranking sites.

Huh, well I know at any given time a 12/12 pug is running on Dragonmaw for 10 or 25 as well as heroic mode. It's around a month before the new expac. I would hate to see a realm not being able to pug 12/12.

I'm talking 11/12 heroic 25, with a guaranteed 25 man LK kill, and there are at least 10 every night going. And not skipping the "hard bosses", I mean every boss except LK is heroic, except Ceasars and Boubilles runs, which are 12/12 heroic, but you have to pa 20kg just to get an invite to those runs. And on 10 man, it's 12/12 heroic on pretty much every pug. I think this is easily the easiest tier of content in this entire game. I mean, this is karazhan level if everyone and i mean EVERYONE can do the last boss of the raid.
Having Kingslayer title is pretty much completely worthless and not cool at all anymore on my server, which kind of svcks. I wish blizzard didn't make it so damned easy, because that's a cool feature. I guess they did it though because of the lore and how everyone wanted to see it since WC3.

Most are GDKP runs though, and you pay thousands of gold for each piece of loot. I did it a few times, but it's not worth it to me since Cata is coming out in less than 2 months.

It's about the same on any realm with a good population. I would never pay 20k just to go to a pug. I always freaking see GDKP runs in trade getting spots selected days in advance for 12/12 runs normal or heroic 10 or 25.
