That's also assuming that they are using a full variable / field / object to hold the level information, when it's probably part of a bigger infoobject / metadata with many other details of the toon.Quote:

I got it blocks
What is Mists of Pandaria?
- The goal is to combine new gameplay with most fun parts of the past.
- The plan is to get people back into the world, instead of having players roam around Stormwind and Orgrimmar all the time once they reach max level.
- Developers want you to do what you want to do to progress your character. They really want you to feel like you have a menu of content where you can pick whatever you want to do, and you shouldn't feel forced to do something to progress your character. For example, daily quests will reward you with valor points but it will still be faster if you raid of course.
- Character builds are going to be entirely revamped. Talents were still too cookie cutter, so the developers want to give players more choices in their talents.

Blizz on the ball- they have a whole section for it already up.
my last prediction was that they would be healer/melee.. that was right..with the addiction of them being able to be a tank 8)
When is this supposed to launch?
edit: just realized something. Monks don't have autoattack damage, so I would think that would help us boxers. Since we are constantly spamming IWT we dont have as much time on the target and miss auto attacks. With monks we can IWT and spam our abilities. 5xmonks here I come!
Before Blizcon started, I did not think they could announce anything that would get me excited. I was wrong. Almost everything about this new expansion excites me. When i predicted Monk as a class.. that was wishful thinking..well wishes come true 8). The pet mini game sounds fun..the senarios..the new talent system etc.. SWtOR will keep me busy for awhile.. but I am looking forward to MoP 8)
On that note.. i will be starting some new Bnet accounts so i can get 5 betas. I have 3 now. so need 2 more. When you commit to a year, you get Diablo free ( only need one of those ) but you get guarantee beta invite to MoP beta. I have not yet been able to box an expansion beta..this time I will 8)

LULZ
"Still" too cookie cutter? Newsflash: YOU MADE THEM MORE COOKIE CUTTER IN CATA YOU MORONS!
I'm laughing so freakin hard right now. :D
[edit2] http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/ has more up-to-date info than I did on the talent/spec/etc. revamp. Should be interesting to see how all that pans out.
The spec info looks really awesome. However, I must say... Pandarens? Freal? *This* is what you're going to put up against The Old Republic? Like, freal? Frealz?
My mind is officially blown. I'm waiting for the entire thing to be a troll. Like, for Mike Metzen to come out on the stage with a Troll mask on lol'ing all over the place.
I also find it hilarious that they're trying to sell subscriptions to WoW as another way to get D3. Way to pad your subscription numbers for your investors, Blizz!
Totally lost all respect I had for Blizz with these announcements. Upside is that TOR will be out in 1.5 months and is amazing. Let's just say, if TOR was around when Jesus was getting in trouble and had him on his side things might've turned out differently.
EDIT: Also, Pokemon? Really? Is there plan to just attract all the 10 year old kids who didn't grow up with Star Wars?

SWtOR is a great game.. but for me.. until a new MMO comes out thats as fun..easy..smooth...supportive..etc. to box as WoW is, Ill always come back to it. SWtOR might be the first game in a long time that i wont mind not playing a full group..
Well, if they make the game play/progress more or less like it did in WotLK, I might just resub. I have no interest in more Cata dynamics.
Is this available now? The free Diablo 3 thing with one year sub and beta access?Quote:

looks quite good so far with the new talent system, shamans can make a mix of elemental and resto, oh and some old friends are losing quite some cc, mages have to choose between ring of frost, cone of cold and deep freeze (renamed to frostjaw afaik)
Will be interesting on how the the talents work out. I like the massive changes because cata sucks horribly and they need massive changes.
As for swtor, I liked bit and pieces of it. However, instead of fighting dragons youre fighting robots and pvp will be way out of whack going by what I played in the beta. So I will wait until the kinks are worked out first before I give it a try.
bf3 is where I will be playing until then
So looking at the druid changes I'm not too excited for my druid team. Looks like lots of the boomkin bullshit made it into the ferals too. Fuck.
edit: Rogue stuff looks like fun. Too bad they are hard to box.
edit2: Warriors have an AoE silence of 4 secs on 40sec cooldown. Yeah GL shaman in arena. Also: they get to charge a lot. =/
edit3: Warlocks look to be super annoying in PvP. Almost every talent has some way of healing them or making them immune to all damage. WTF.

its an interrupt, so actually not that annoying since you can prevent it by dropping a traquil mind totem but I'm no sure if stoneclaw/ stonebulwak still places a shield on totemsQuote:

afaik they cant have shockwave and bladestorm at the same timeQuote:

Those DK spells look awesome. I think i'll be sticking with them, unless monks impress me more.
You can only choose one of those talents. Each talent tree has 3 talents per level.. All talents are simular in each level..ie..CC ..defensive..etc. The idea is you can choose what type of CC fits your play style. SO all three would accomplish similar results...and or fit a specific encounter better ( you can switch talent specs around easier they said )Quote:

Please never quote anyone who posts that crap again! The original poster has already made it very clear that the list is 100% bullshit and the only reason why it looks so accurate is cause he made the post right as Northrend was leaked, which made some people believe he predicted both TBC & WOTLK. :oQuote:

Correct- can only choose one per tree and shockwave and bladestorm are on the same 90th talent tree.Quote:

You know , on that pet combat team thing, I wonder how easy it will be for us MBers, to level up pets to turn around and sell on the AH, or if it will even be profitable. I know, way to early to say.

This has truly boosted my interest to continue playing WoW :) damn I cant wait to see this!!Quote:

Yes. As World of Warcraft has matured and more expansions, content updates, and tiers of equipment have been released, players’ stats have begun to inflate exponentially. At this point, the numbers for health, mana, and so on are threatening to get out of control. In order to combat this and bring statistics back to earth -- or Azeroth, as it were -- in Mists of Pandaria, we will be “flattening” the statistic curve in places where it no longer needs to behave exponentially (primarily at the point of the end game for old expansions). In practice, this means that upon the expansion’s release, the numbers for Strength, Health, Intellect, damage, and so on will be significantly lower than you’re used to seeing across the board, from level 1 to level 85. It’s all relative, of course -- enemies’ and bosses’ stats will be reduced as well, and it should take a level-85 warrior roughly the same number of many sword-whacks and ability uses to kill a level-85 monster as it did before. However, this also means the difference between each level between 1 and 85 will be less significant, so you may find that an enemy 5 or 10 levels below your own will be a little tougher to deal with than it was bef
Ugh, I assume that last sentence means old raids will be harder. Get your achieves and loot now before this expansion hits.
Gogo 5 x feral druids IMO.
5 x Bear Hug. 1 min cooldown
Melee attack that stuns the target and deals 10% of the Druid's health in damage every second for 3 seconds. Effect cancelled if the druid moves away, attacks or takes any other action. Using this ability activates Bear form.
Is there anything short of a pally bubble that would survive 5 of these?
what are you gonna do for the other 50 seconds?
Good, they cant pop any cool downs or spell reflect, or charge, or shock wave while bladestorming :PQuote:

Edit: fucking phone auto correct messed up what I was trying to say and I'm too lazy to fix it. So no fucking raids won't be as "piss easy" in the future. I'm against this change because its what made you feel powerful.
Maybe I am missing something, and it has happened before, but for old raids and such they said they will scale them down as well, so that I high level will still take the same time to clear through it, its just the gaps between levels are getting closed.Quote:

The thought of playing pandas in this next expansion has me thinking my wow addiction may finally come to an end. What's next? Strawberry short cake?
