Patch 4.3 - On a Deathwing and a prayer

[Lakov_Sanite]

then you'll get mages and locks rolling on it just to be douches.

[ezrast]

Well, never mind my previous post then. Didn't expect the bonus to be +100.

They should still make people do the quest line to update their replica 0 into replica 0.5. 

[Sjofn]

Haha, they totally should. EARN IT, BITCHES.

If I ever actually played my priest, I would probably want the tier 0 replica for her, it was pretty. The upgraded version ... was not.

[Rokal]

Thought the upgraded version just had a blue tint? I liked it.

[Ingmar]

The priest one goes from purple to a garish pink I think.

Dungeon 1



Dungeon 2



I had actually reversed them in my head. Both look sort of weird on a Night Elf, but I liked the second set a little bit better on my dwarf.

[Sjofn]

Dungeon 1 looks great on a night elf, you are smoking crack. Dungeon 2 is hideous on everyone.

[Ingmar]

Better on a night elf without green hair, I guess.

[caladein]

That helm...

[Rokal]

The hat is just way too big on a night elf, and the ears unnaturally slide behind the side of the hat. The proportions are much better on a human



On a dwarf, the shoulders are huge, which I think looked pretty cool on the dungeon 1 set.

[Ingmar]

I just cannot accept a dwarf in pink.

[Rokal]

It doesn't look pink to me. It's white fading into beige.

[Sjofn]

Looks pink to me too. And ugly. Uuuuuuuuuglyyyyyyyyyy.

Also who gives a shit about hats? Hats are made to be turned off.

[Rokal]

Looks pink to me too.

:(

No.

[Miasma]

That robe could be slavaged and worked into other ensembles.  The white and gold one I mean.

[Fordel]

Am I blind, missing an image?


All I see is a Blue/Purple robe and a Yellow robe?

[Lantyssa]

It's hideous whether you call it yellow, pink, or beige.

[Sjofn]

The yellow robe's non-yellow parts are pink. But like Lantyssa said, it's hideous no matter what color you want to call it.

[Ingmar]

Yeah even to color-blind me it is fugly.

[K9]

Why would you look like that when you could have tier 5, 6 or 8 though?

[Sjofn]

Well, for starters, the replica stuff might be a lot easier to get, and I am lazy.    It's why I'm almost certainly going to be mostly transmogging into PvP sets.

[Simond]

So, um, Deathwing's quite a big dragon: http://i.imgur.com/w19cm.jpg

[Ironwood]

Holy Shit.

[Paelos]

Hah! That's pretty impressive looking.

[Hawkbit]

That's the first thing in a while that has made me want to resub, but the work and commitment getting to that point is above what I could do. 

I wish they would allow for raid encounters to be experienced by solo players, sans loot.  Just so we could see what it looks like. 

[Rokal]

Reading dungeon journal for 10 minutes and clicking "queue for raid" is going to be too much work/commitment?

[Lakov_Sanite]

I think you are grossly overestimating the ability for pugs to complete content.

We won't know until we see what the actual difficulty of LFR stuff is.

[Lakov_Sanite]

I think you are grossly overestimating the ability for a pug of level 85's to do content from previous expansions, let alone current(albeit nerfed) content.  It's not about numbers specifically, it's about coordination and raid mechanics that no amount of gear can overcome.

[Ingmar]

Mechanics they will allegedly be changing/nerfing for LFR.

I'm not saying you're absolutely wrong, just that we don't know yet.

[Sjofn]

Please, they PUG'd most of WotLK already. At level 80.

[Hawkbit]

It comes down to the uninterrupted time required for seeing content.  If I can't put a game on pause for 15 minutes while a neighbor stops over, or family needs help, then I just don't bother playing. 

Like I said, I'm entirely okay with not getting loot, but I'd just like to see the story play out.  It is one of a few reasons I quit playing back in January, after seeing yet another expansion I can't see to fruition.  I'm not going to argue that they've made it easier; they have.  It just doesn't work for me, sadly.

[Merusk]

I think when they say mechanics will be changing it will be much like the Normal-> heroic change.  You don't lose/ gain too many things to think about but the damage done is pretty different.

Using the last Heroic fight I dealt with - Sindragosa - as an example, you've got to worry about one additional ice tomb during air phase and unchained magic does AOE damage instead of just single target damage.   No significant changes but an increased amount of coordination.

For a "raid finder" version, you'd probably only get two air phase tombs and possibly a longer time on the AOE blast after her pull-in.  You've still got the major coordination problems.

If you've ever done old content in PUG raids once it was irrelevant (i.e. doing AQ in early WOTLK) you learned the hard way that even outgearing and out leveling coordination fights still causes wipes.  Twin Emps and C'<whateveR> killed my little AQ Pug a number of times before we got it right and we were all 80 - 20 levels and ridiculous item-levels beyond what it was designed for.
