Missing the Memo

[Amirya]

So is Forboden a draenei or a dwarf, or some weird hybrid?

The avatar shows draenei, the .sig image shows a dwarf (or it's a draenei with dwarf beard)

[Forboden]

Forboden has waaaaaaay to much money to spend on race changes. F5 for the latest installment.

[KysenMurrin]

Think you need to clear your cache or something, I see a SW sigil avatar and a human sig linking his human armory.

[Amirya]

Very weird, I'm at work, and the cache/browser is reset every single time I exit the browser.

So far, Forboden is descended of a draenei, a dwarf, and a human. Next up, tauren or blood elf?

[Forboden]

Panda.

When did Ozruk's Elementium Bulwark change? When I was on my hunter the other day, I was all set to use Sulfuron Slammers...but wait, I have a bleed dot!

Very welcome, but man I was not expecting it.

[Treck]

One of his abilities places a dot on you whenever you do attacks on him (melee or ranged aka hunters, as long as its physical)
And a magical spellreflective shield for a few sec.
So if you are a hunter you never had to cast spells to place a dot on yourself

[KysenMurrin]

Hunter shots didn't proc it originally, it was spells for one or melee hits for the other.

This. Originally, hunters were the only class screwed by it, which necessitated the need for Sulfuron Slammers (or friendly healers to dispel asap).

So I don't know when it got changed, but the happy shouts on Vent were interesting.

I've had issues with Ozruk on my Arcane Mage, and even tried going Fire Spec for that one fight, but just kept Sulfuron Slammers on her as well after I hated it.

[Amirya]

Go try it out with your mage and let us know!

I thought maybe that was just a change on normal, since I haven't seen Heroic Stonecore in a long long while. Good to know!

Not WoW related, but I deffinately missed the memo on this one.

You can play snake while youtube vids are buffering! How did I not know that...

For those that don't know what he's talking about, if you have the little circle on your youtube video (and have the video selected, not the rest of the page or any other window) press the down arrow and have some snake lulz!

People vary rarely know what I am talking about. It makes perfect sense in my head, but when it comes to communicating ideas to others it all goes horribly wrong

Not sure if this should go here or in the LFR raid thread, but it appears that in LFR, one tank is marked "main tank" and the other "main assist":

http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/4081812959

Is that true? It's new to me. But every since I learnt of LFR, I had been fretting about who should be the tank in the one tank DS fights in LFR.

Vuhdo still correctly identifies as tanks both players who queued as tank - I had thought the "main assist" role was usually a dps one.

That's a hotfix that went in yesterday.

Speaking of fixes, the "jump across the surface of the water on your mount at regular mount speed" bug was fixed a couple weeks ago.

[Archeth]

With 4.3.2 and I greatly miss that bug. Maybe it's time to change default swim speed to something sensible...

[Shoju]

Was I the last person in the world to know that Ultraxion drops a mount?


I saw a guy cruising around Org on this a week or so ago, and I FREAKING WANT THIS.

[Worldie]

Oh I've also seen it for the first time yesterday... I was like, W T H is that O_O

The hotfix is regarding the Assistant designation in raids, ie the ability to set raid marks and do ready checks etc. That's entirely seperate from the main assist designation, which is what econ21's referring to. And yes, one tank getting marked as MT and the other as MA has been happening for a long time, if not from implementation. Seems a bit pointless to me though, I've never paid any attention to it.

[Mukat]

I've noticed, for the most part, the main tank designation is given to the better-geared tank. Main assist is the worse geared tank.

[Nakama]

No idea when this changed, but apparently I can go do Molten Core without having to create a raid.

[Petrus]

I believe that has to do with the portal guy outside of BRD. If you use him, you can just port right in. On the other hand, if, like most people do, you use the remote to get into the Grim Guzzler in BRD, you need a raid group in order to walk in the main entrance.

[econ21]

I would like someone to send me a memo about reinforcements in Isle of Conquest. How are they determined? It does not seem to be exclusively based on kills. I've won several battles of attrition by controlling all the objectives and am sure it was that, rather than a superior kill rate, which decided the fight. So I guess you lose reinforcements for death but maybe gain them from holding objectives? Rather like the mine in AV. Is that right? Is it all objectives or just refinery and quarry?
