WoW Community Interview with Randy Jordan of AIE / The Instance http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/wowanniversary/interview/maui.xml Grim Batol Preview http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/features/grimbatol.html Grim Batol "Vehicle" combat http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/25482319093/cataclysm-preview-grim-batol/ Just to clarify, it's not vehicle combat at the beginning of the dungeon. The forces of the Twilight's Hammer within Grim Batol are massive, so you'll start the dungeon with a bombing run through the halls to thin their ranks. It'll be a set flight path and will not involve aerial combat. This is only to get things started. This dungeon is not vehicle-driven at all. Lack of class changes in Patch 3.3.5 http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/25482318925/patch-3-3-5/ Our systems team is hard at work tweaking classes, updating talent trees, and restructuring the way in which new spells and abilities are learned during the leveling process (given that spells and abilities will scale with level rather than have multiple ranks). These changes are planned to coincide with a future patch which will implement the framework for Cataclysm. No major tweaking is planned to take place beforehand unless serious class gameplay issues arise. Leveling Curve in Cataclysm http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/25482138964/a-polite-question-to-blizzard/ As you mentioned, the leveling curve all the way from 1-70 was adjusted in the past. We feel those changes coupled with heirloom experience bonuses make for a reasonable leveling experience up to 70. Since we're making major changes to the 1-60 Azeroth zones in Cataclysm, it isn't likely we'll be making further adjustments to the leveling curve there. The goal is to encourage new and old players alike to try out a new race or class and experience all of the new content and environment changes in the "old world." As it is, Cataclysm will bring about a much better quest flow, both in terms of the way quests are given in individual zones, as well as the way in which players will be directed from zone to zone. It will be completely reasonable in Cataclysm to level from 1-60 in Azeroth solely on Kalimdor, or solely on Eastern Kingdoms. In general, there will be much less need to jump from continent to continent because you hit dry spots while questing and need to find somewhere else to go in order to find level-appropriate quests. The goal is to make sure players are given the choice to go to the zones they want to while leveling, rather than force them to the other end of the world for a level or two. Whether or not any changes are going to be made to the leveling curve in Northrend, Raid Warning - A World of Warcraft Podcast yes 37:14 Raid Warning Episode 46: Those Rascals http://www.raidwarning.net/2010/06/raid-warning-episode-46-those-rascals/ http://www.raidwarning.net/2010/06/raid-warning-episode-46-those-rascals/#comments Thu, 17 Jun 2010 00:43:51 +0000 Alyssa http://www.raidwarning.net/?p=4657

We will possibly do it for hunters, but that is because their resource system is going to prevent them from ever spamming multiple buttons at once (in the same way rogues have a lower GCD) Removal of Talent Trees? http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/25026566623/subtletly-rogues-and-fire-mages-in-cataclysm/ It was before my time, but the talent trees were developed in response to beta feedback that all say warriors played the same and players weren't making any decisions about how to improve their character beyond a certain point. Maybe 3 wasn't the right number, or maybe the designers should have said that paladins and priests are healers and don't have a damage-dealing mode. In any case, those decisions have been made. While we aren't afraid of making a really controversial change if it improves the game, I'm not sure sacrificing some talent trees really does improve the game. It might make PvP or even PvE balance easier to achieve, but it cuts down on the number of ways to play the game or even sheer depth. For every number-obsessed power gamer there are thousands of players who just like their BM hunter or Frost mage and don't care if they can't top meters or win Arena because they're never going to do that content anyway. Those guys could very well be devastated by just taking away the class that they love. Raid Healing in Cataclysm http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/25026435563/where-s-blizzard-heading/ Ghostcrawler: Specs won't single target heal the same way. They will have enough basic tools that nobody will have a massive hole in what they can cover. We don't want the Disc priest to throw up her hands when asked to tank heal, or the paladin asked to sit out when on a fight with a lot of AE healing. You need to be able to run a 10-player raid with any 2 healers (ideally 2 different healers) and be okay. You need to be able to do any 5-player content with any healer (before you over-gear it as many of you do these days). Yes, the players who already use all their spells will see the least change.

For an MMO, WoW is pretty soloable, so we like for it to feel really awesome when you're in a group. Whenever we read "Without my buff, there is no reason for a group to take me," our typical response is: awesome. You'll have to figure out another reason why they should take you.

Normal versus Heroic mode will be chosen on a per-boss basis in Cataclysm raids, the same way it works in Icecrown Citadel For the first few raid tiers, our plan is to provide multiple smaller raids. Instead of one raid with eleven bosses, you might have a five-boss raid as well as a six-boss raid. Napoleann via email I think that these changes are bad and good at the same time. It is good that, by doing a 10-man, I will be getting the same gear as I would be if I was in a 25-man. However, I think that these changes effectively kill 25-man raiding because, besides an achievement, there is no incentive to do a 25 instead of 10-man. Why would I choose to wait for 15 extra people when I can do the same thing, and get the same rewards, with ten? I guess we will all have to wait and see how this change actually plays out, but I can't see it turning out well for 25-man raiding. blue post: we might allow you to change between 10 and 25 on a per-encounter basis for additional flexibility. If you started a raid in 25-player mode and then found that you couldn’t get everyone together later in the week, you might be able to downsize the next few bosses to 10-player.

Tons of people who didn't even acquire the gear or try it out cried about how lame it was while the people who actually gave it a try ended up getting really upset when the bonus was changed because it was actually a lot stronger than it looked. I really hope that people get to see this in action and try it out in beta before trying to get it removed and changed.

Some of these problems include: In general, warriors and druids don’t have enough control over their Rage. Large gap between being rage starved in lower level gear and never having to manage it in higher want to make rage more consistent and avoid drastic differences between low-end and high-end gear. Changes: Rage is no longer generated based on damage done by auto-attacks. Instead, each auto-attack provides a set amount of Rage, and off-hand weapons will generate 50% of the Rage main hands do. This amount is based on a constant formula which factors in the base swing speed of the weapon. This means the Rage gained should be averaged out between fast and slow weapons. If the attack is a critical strike, it will generate 200% Rage. Haste will accelerate swing times to generate Rage faster. Rage from damage taken will no longer be based on a standard creature of the character’s level, but instead will based on the health of the warrior or druid. This calculation ignores all damage reduction from armor, absorption, avoidance, block, or similar mechanics, so improving your gear will not reduce Rage gained. Rage from damage taken will be based on the health of the warrior or druid This calculation ignores all damage reduction from armor, absorption, avoidance, block, or similar mechanics, so improving your gear will not reduce Rage gained. More instant sources of Rage buildup All “on next swing” attacks in Cataclysm are being removed. Heroic Strike and Maul will be instant swings that cost a variable amount of Rage. More rage consumed = more damage More Blue Posts Mana Regen in Cataclysm combining food and drink into 1 item no more 5 second rule to start regenerating (mp5 casting/notcasting) Hybrid Tax to stay no reason a hybrid class should outdps a pure dps class 1 Spell Healing Want to try and do away with it force people to use a variety of healing spells efficient / non efficient Changes to Dispel As previously mentioned, we are providing three dispel capabilities to all healing classes as follows: Druids will be able to dispel defensive magic, curses, and poison. Paladins will be able to dispel defensive magic, diseases, and poison. Priests will be able to dispel defensive magic, offensive magic, and disease. Shaman will be able to dispel defensive magic, offensive magic, and curses. There is some trade-off that is being made in making these changes and we wanted to expand on this further. Protection and Retribution paladins will lose their current ability to dispel magic. All shaman will lose dispel disease and dispel poison in exchange for Restoration gaining dispel magic. Restoration shaman, Restoration druids, and Holy paladins will need to talent into their defensive magic dispels. Shadow priests won’t be able to remove disease in Shadowform. Mage, hunter, and warlock will retain their current dispel mechanics.

Cataclysm Testing to Start In April http://www.mmo-champion.com/news-2/cataclysm-testing-in-april-blue-posts/ This is probably why Blizzard decided to spoil the Cataclysm Prologue in 3.9 a few weeks ago and waaaay before it's deployed on live servers. They're not huge fans of spoilers and the only reason to do it is to make sure people know what's going on when they eventually play on Beta servers No matter what happens, you will NOT get any beta invitation before it's officially announced. Anything you receive is a huge scam to steal your account.

Inner-Horde relations After assuming command of the Horde, Garrosh labels Cairne a traitor and executes the Tauren Leader. However, this does not seem to be the end of his involvement in Cataclysm and his seeming demise is linked to the greener, lusher Desolace. Garrosh will throw out most of the Blood Elves and Forsaken from Orgrimmar. Deepholme It is possible that the Alliance and Horde will be involved in a major battle within Deepholm. Airships will battle in the gigantic caverns al a Icecrown style. The area will also cater for flying mounts. Raids and Dungeons Cataclysm will ship with 8 Heroic Dungeons (not including Deadmines and Shadowfang) and 4 Raid encounters. The Skywall will contain a raid with Al'Akir as the end boss.

Mastery - This is a new stat that will allow players to become better at whatever makes their chosen talent tree cool or unique. It's directly tied to talents, so what you gain from improving this stat is entirely dependent upon your class and the talent specialization you choose. We’ll talk more about specific Mastery benefits in the future. Armor - Pretty much the same... not as big of a gap Resilience - This will only affect damage done by players and critical damage done by players. It will not impact crit chance, mana drains, or other such effects. Strength, Agility, Hit Rating, Expertise, and Critical Strike Rating - No real change, damage done by having too low of a hit rating may be altered What's Gone from Items (not completely from game)? Attack Power - str and agility will convert to this Spell Power - gone except from caster weapons Armor Penetration - Will still exist through talents/abilities Shield Block Value - Gone since Block = 30% block may be increased through talents What Stat's Knocked Up Ghostcrawler and Fled to the hills? AKA. Gone for good. MP5 - Spirit takes over Defense - Defense is being removed from the game entirely. Tanking classes should expect to become uncrittable versus creatures just by shifting into Defensive Stance, Frost Presence, Bear Form, or by using Righteous Fury. Spell Ranks - Spell ranks will cease to exist. All spells will have one rank and will scale appropriately with level. The levels at which you can learn certain spells are being changed in order to fill in some of the gaps, and we will be introducing some new spells to learn along the way as well. Weapon Skill - Gone, even I forgot about this.

Such awesome funtastic humor. From Cereal Killar on iTunes: Bottom line, really friggin funny. Its like being in a room hanging with your buddies just shooting the shit about Warcraft, beer, and ball busting. Don't listen to the tools QQ'n about college humor or gay jokes, it's good back and forth chat like you'd have with friends. Don't expect spread sheet numbers or microscopic analysis of gear, but you do get comments on current content crammed in between the laughs. Kharne - EU Dunemaul on iTunes UK: I love this cast! From the always awesome music that brings you into and out of the show, to the review of the current beer of the week, this podcast keeps you interested and listening for something new. The hosts are intelligent (unlike some casters I listen to) and have a dry wit which helps the World of Warcraft content move alone nicely and not at all like just "reading the news". I have to say - the legendary episode where Seven has to take a spoon of nastyness brought the show down to a new 'high brow' level of entertainment that only the strong of stomach can really appreciate. I think I pulled a muscle laughing to be quite honest. Notosa - on iTunes AU Needs moar Aussie Beer. You guys make me laugh... even if you can get a little bawdy. Adylor - via email Just wanted to personally compliment you on the amazing job you've done with the podcast.

If you would like to hear a few minutes of Seven nearly dying, please feel free to keep the podcast running past the end music.

Then we can guarantee that dps will be identical for every skilled player on every boss. I hope the fights are still fun though. :( If we things will get too far out of whack, we'll adjust them accordingly. In the mean time, focus on beating the bosses not beating your fellow raid members. I agree players do and should care about their dps. My advice is to work hard to make sure your dps is as good as it can possibly be. If you think you're doing that, well I'm skeptical, but beyond that, gratz, you won WoW. If you're sophisticated enough to be posting on these forums, then you're sophisticated enough to know what tanking an Icecrown dungeon requires and whether you're up to the task.

They DO provide SOME good WoW reviews about substantial issues. If you like the above mix, this show is for you." By: Azlina Titled: Azlina (@WTFaGurlZOMG) "Most enlightening and delightful webcast!

It's dirty. It's childish. It's raunchy. Thus, its hilarious. Add in copious amounts of alcohol discussions, this is the best podcast to kick back and laugh at our slight WoW obsession with.

Remember the days of Everquest when all the sudden a gaggle of skeletons would attack a city? (I know its not really called a gaggle, but what do you really call a large group of walking bone marrow?) Or someone would cry out in zone that an NPC was on a rampage, and inevitably a ton of people would zone in and crash the server just trying to catch a glimpse of the happenings?

Remember when new MMO games would launch, promising great GM events…

Teleportation orbs have been added to allow players access back and forth from Sapphiron's lair. Quest Tracking Feature Players can now track quest objectives on the map ('M' key). Quest Log A Show Map button has been added to the Quest Log. Selecting a quest and pressing this button will open the map for the zone in which the quest objective is located displaying the associated area of interest. Any other active quests in a player's Quest Log for that zone will also be displayed. Map The map interface has been separated into four separate panes: a map pane (left), a pane listing active quest names for the zone being viewed (right), a pane listing the full quest text for any highlighted quest (bottom left), and a pane listing the quest rewards for any highlighted quest (bottom right). All active quests listed in the right pane for the zone being viewed on the map will be assigned a number. These numbers will be displayed on the map according to the areas of interest for each quest. Highlighting a quest name in the right pane will highlight the corresponding area of interest on the map in the left pane, show its quest text in the lower left pane, and list the quest rewards in the lower right pane. Given that some quest objectives can be achieved in multiple locations within a given zone, highlighting such a quest will highlight an area of interest closest in proximity to the character's current location. This feature can be disabled by un-checking the Show Quest Objectives box in the bottom right corner of the new map interface, restoring the map to its standard full-screen display. Clicking on the arrow in the top right corner of the new map interface will hide all but the map pane, bringing the map out of full-screen mode and allowing players to leave it open while navigating a zone or engaging in combat. Objectives Tracking This frame has been improved to offer new functionality and can be used with the new shrunken map option. The Objectives frame is now docked below the mini-map next to the right 2 action bars and will track up to 12 quests for a zone. Numbers have been added next to each quest name and objective corresponding with those areas of interest displayed on the map. If a quest objective has been completed, the number will be replaced with a yellow question mark symbol. The arrow button in the top right corner of the Objectives frame can be used to toggle between minimizing and maximizing the quest objective display. Quest Difficulty Tracking This feature is off by default and can be enabled in the Objectives window from the Interface Options menu. Turning this feature on will color-code all quest names displayed in the map interface according to difficulty (grey, green, yellow, orange, and red).

Bert Sanderson, famously known among Blood Elf females across Azeroth as “PerBert”, is finally being brought to justice as hundreds of Blood Elf females come forward with accusations of molestation, black mail and manipulation to perform illicit acts in game.  Bert was brought into custody this morning, orange fingers and a Vault soda in his back pocket.  Authorities say the 23 year old came quietly, then agreed to come with them as they peeled him from his computer chair.

They are not harder (for the most part) in a relative sense because you probably have better gear now than when you first went into ToC.

According to MMO News, Jeff Kaplan in a recent interview with Games.de mentions that Cataclysm will be the last expansion in the World of Warcraft series. He goes on to say that content will be delivered in a completely different way, one that “in terms of games design, it’s a revolution.”   Yes its already been dubbed rumor, and who knows how credible the sources actually are, but it does bring up some interesting questions. With recent interviews mentioning that WoW could go…

With the Patch 3.3 PTR going strong, players have been diving in to check out the new dungeons and raids, as well as uncovering all sorts of new content and spoilers. From the new armor sets, to the ending of Icecrown, sites have been digging up all sorts of new information. However, for some of us, a new PTR begins a period of dodging popular news sites and covering our ears when our friends try to tell us about the latest and greatest. It’s hard…

Blizzard has just announced via their Official Twitter account that they are testing increases in Northrend Faction Reputation Gains on the PTR. They have not given anymore details, but one can probably assume that this means that the amount of reputation gained from quests and dailies will be increased. There also hasn’t been any word on if this will effect the Argent Tournament factions either. As is per usual this will probably spark a debate between those who feel cheated after doing it…

Blizzard has started a new page unveiling the latest Tier 10 armor sets to come out of the Icecrown Citadel, to be launched in patch 3.3. Currently only the Death Knight, Druid, Hunter and Warrior looks are available. More sets will be announced and pictures updated as PTR info is released.

Make sure you click through on the high res versions to see some horde variants and different angles.

Bornak jumped in this thread in the official forums to announce that everything that currently drops Emblems of Conquest will drop Emblems of Triumph in Patch 3.3. This furthers Blizzards push to get folks geared to experience Icecrown. Also the Heroic Daily will now award the new Emblems of Frost. Emblems of Frost of course will also drop from Icecrown Raid Bosses and the new weekly raid quests. It will be interesting to see if Icecrown’s difficulty has been turned up to compensate for the accessibility of gear.

Some of you may have logged on today to see that your extra Brewfest Tokens have disappeared from your inventory. Kisirani jumped into a thread on the forums to assure everyone this is intended. Holiday tokens have been included in a rework to certain holiday items to allow them to exiist only as long as the holiday event itself is ongoing. If you are unsure if an item qualifies under this, check the tooltip to see if it states it requires a certain…

Earlier today Blizzard released their preview of the Icecrown Citadel Raid Instance. Below is the information from the site as well as some screenshots and concept art from the preview:

All across the lands of Northrend, many battles have been fought against the vile Scourge. Countless lives have been lost since the Alliance and Horde first reached the frozen wastes, but the champions of Azeroth continue to march forward. Now Icecrown Citadel, the cornerstone of the Scourge’s power and the home base of…

With the recent extension to the Brewfest holiday event, the question has once again been raised if the requirements for the holiday event achievements are too involved. With some of the achievements during holiday events requiring you to log on almost every day to complete, does the casual player feel left out? The extension of Brewfest this year, an event plagued by issues in the past, leads one to believe that it may.

Or is it just a problem with certain events. I…

Blizzard has posted the latest 3.3 Public Test Realm Patch Notes:

    • The Forge of Souls, the first wing of the 5-player dungeon, is currently available for testing.

Over the past few days more and more info has been coming out about Patch 3.3. While the PTR is not up yet, the patch notes were released today, leading us to believe that the PTR is not too far off. Some thought The Argent Tournament instances came out too quickly in relation to the progression of the average player. While the overall consensus is that the Trials are easier than Ulduar, this could leave a lot of guilds feeling rushed.…

In this week’s podcast we do a rundown of all the craziness that was the MLG: Columbus WoW Tournament, a whole lot of talk about what changes may come to your life as a healer, the latest in class notes from the developers, how to get shot in the Isle of Conquest, and up to date world firsts including Algalon 25 manned. Of course a solid portion of the podcast derailed and dedicated to off topic subjects as usual.

This may or may not completely count as a podcast…. well at least the last ten minutes or so is questionable. This week we cover patch 3.1.3, the new druid bear skins, cross language battle groups, iron bound proto drakes go bye-bye, Healer mana regen, Flame Leviathan 2-manned, Algalon goes down…. and yeah, even a 13 yr old gets to go Mike Tyson on a hooker. We. Are. Sad.
