so they are changing it to all week, so a few days for each CTA.. it might or might not be on weekends now? ( in other words. its no longer CTAW(weekends)? ) Makes sense considering 3 new BGs incoming. Would be forever to get through each one if its still on weekends only!
I like the CTA change. As it is now it already takes forever for one BG to make the rounds, adding more would make it too long.
Just an FYI for 4+ boxers... MoP Scenarios are only for 3 players. I haven't been keeping up with all the MoP news and didn't know that, so I'd guess that some of you didn't either. ;)
I've just googled MoP Scenarios... any idea of what the rewards will be like?Quote:

Considering the 'hardcore' nature of boxers, will Scenarios be for us?
Might have to add another shammy to my 8 lolQuote:

It's a minimum of 3 players to a maximum of 25 according to current notesQuote:

Blizz has said that Monk healers will almost be able to heal without targeting makes me think they will be a fantastic edition to a Boxing raiders teams.
I disagree. Warriors will be the best. Heroic Leap + Bandages = Epic Mobile Healing.
Sadly note :(.....3 maxQuote:

Challenge modes will be interesting ;)
I've run Stonecore heroic full run in 10 minutes with my team.. (5x glyphed invisibility for some serious trash skipping..) :rolleyes:
All my mages are at ilvl 390 atm so Time Warp is only "needed" at Ozruk.
http://wow.zamimg.com/uploads/screen...mal/307574.jpg
I wonder if full rogue/druid/hunter teams will dominate challenge modes due to being able to skip trash
dunno will find out since my main is a hunter, and my other x 4 toons. Gunna love that point blank against melee boxing hunters in MOP!
as most of us will miss this one leveling less u level though AV thats not a good plan for the xp u get. the next dates are.Quote:

Is AV cta bad xp for lvling even with like a 80% win ratio? I know in early levels it is quite lucrative
The 70-74 and 74-79 bracket was very fast easy leveling for one of my teams this weekend. Granted I am on RAFQuote:

http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/5035604631 Closed thread for a reason..
..but I have to agree a bit. I'm not thrilled about The Tillers at all.
Quick-look on questlines and the environment seems quite boring, reputation rewards are mostly just mounts and companions.
I wonder how much exp can you gain by doing Cata heroics in MoP.. Or if MoP dungeons were doable like Cata normal dungeons were at the start.
Normal dungeon clearing at the start of Cata was easy for 5 mages and the exp was fairly good. Especially The Vortex Pinnacle was fun and Volatile Air-wise quite profitable.
Next to nothing if the same rules apply for this expansion. Someone already brought it up in the Group Comp section and there's a 90% drop in XP for previous-expansion content.Quote:

Is AOE farming an option for 5 x blood DKs or 5 x elemental shaman? I know shaman lose some healing but with healing rain and new potential for permanent elementals it might be some options of AOE farming to level and get greens/blues/possible world drops.
Ele shaman their healing is among the best in the game, both spot and aoe healing. I personally expect it will get nerfed caused it's way too good.Quote:

Well holy paladins are healers, what would you expect? That a dps shaman would outheal a healer? The guy was talking about aoe farming and mentioned that healing was nerfed for ele shamans, and in that context was my reply.Quote:

Looking for a way to get a leg up when the patch is released. I know last time I farmed the water zone with my druid herber and made thousands the first week and banged out a level just herbing. The ability to do AOE farming + herbing + tailoring + enchanting + inscription in my party is making me itchy to get the patch and take charge of the economy for a bit.

So i'm wondering if this means one character is max then ALL accts on one bnet get the bonus. Would make sense that you would use LFD on one fast queue tank or healer to max valor and then all your teams get 50% bonus. Using LFD on one character until you have h eroics down on one team. Not sure about this method in terms of time saved.
As said before the game does not really understand what a game licence is even less then it does on live atm, all my beta chars are on there own Battle.net accounts so can not get we have to wait for a blue post about this is just been data mind. but all in all all your chars are all your "alts" but one ;) unless you do not play battle.net wide.Quote:

Yea, all chars on your bnet will get the 50% bonus. So instead of getting 100 VP for doing a heroic, you get 150 VP. I like this change, it's good for alt-a-aholics
Was this mentioned yet?
Elixir of Ancient Knowledge
Binds to Battle.net account
Item level 1

"Drops from Krol the Blade (a rare elite in Dread Wastes), lvl 90 with 4 million hp."
"In the latest patch this item is now bound to account so sadly there will no longer be a market for it on the AH."
am, a rare elite? Probably on a long respawn timer
This and RAF o.0Quote:

Yep, this is a great change added for alts!Quote:

RAF is 300%, and that is the maximum boost XP can have ever (right now anyway). Period. It's the cap."
but then again..
"The Elixir works with Heirlooms. People posted on wowhead and they got about 335% experience, 300% without levelgear."
