So I take it the "trick" loot bag from the Headless Horseman is empty?

I got no loots on my kill.

EDIT: Turns out an "empty" bag is one that would usually only have Emblems in it, but they're gone. "Empty" loot bag is just JP.

I got the sword that summons pumpkins (and JP)... I hope the mount/companion pet isn't off that either, took me so many attempts to get in because it keeps crashing

EDIT: From the brewfest I think it just contained 2 frosts, otherwise it'd be empty. Same system here as well i suppose. So I got lucky on my sword.

Need hat and pet, and mount, ideally, 4 drops... will be tricky.

I've seen both Rings drop to the party much like the Brewfest trinkets.

I do not fancy my luck with getting the mount. Or even the crap I need for the Meta Achievement.

Are they removing Herald of the Titans in Cata?

I just got a companion from the loot horseman lootbag, and mask from trick or treat innkeeper.

Anybody else having problems with projected textures? All night in our ICC we've had problems with people unable to see stuff like sindragosa's frost bomb targets. Getting worried that Defiles will be invisible on LK.

Consecration doesn't show up for me on ultra settings. Neither do the icicles inside the tunnel in Pit of Saron. Was having trouble with Sindy's frost bombs in ICC25 last night as well.

Funny thing is I was thinking about defile being a problem too. Also LDW's dnd didn't show up as well.

[Correction]

I just remembered that professor putricide was no problem with invisible slime pools, so I figure we're good on LK.

Random Complaint: People not moving for Sindy frost beacons. 3 consecutive pulls of people tombing half the raid, people walking into beacons, etc. I did every fight from saurfang onwards without a boss addon. Why are people so BAD at this game?

[The Stig]

We skipped PP so we didn't see anything, but on LDW I for sure didn't see DnD, I usually plant myself on top of it to soak for Runic Power.

My work friend who's heavily into PvP tells me some of the items under 2000 rating are buyable outright with no need for anything. Is this true? He tells me all the Paladins or anyone that can equip a shield are buying one of the three: http://www.wowhead.com/npc=34095#sells:0+8-2+1

(on his server, anyway) -- was thinking of picking up one of the 264 2 handed axe/sword for fun/heroic tanking. I'm sick of using axes XD (had tyrannical, then the one off Saurfang, then the one of 25 man Marrowgar)


Regarding halloween:
I keep crashing as I zone into the headless horseman dungeon, it's really annoying -- people even do it without a tank as I logged back in and found myself getting the bag but everyone's gone lol. Still, I roll tank to get in ASAP but mweh, I just crash

[Falaras]

I heard the same from a friend of mine about the wrathful shields and all gear besides the weapons, but when I went to the arena vendors on my mage I couldn't buy anything. Not the wand, the wrathful gear, anything.
Edit: Oh god nevermind, apparently even if its red you can still purchase things, thats pretty funny.

[The Stig]

!!!

Can the 277 items be purchased? Please check :>

EDIT: And yeh, it was said by my work mate that "it may look like you can't buy them, but you can"

I wonder if this is an existing bug or anything, otherwise I'd go on a shopping spree :>

[Falaras]

Sadly I can't check because I just wasted all my honor this morning on relentless gear and my paladin only had like 80 anyways so I just got the shield, sorry. I can tell you I did manage to buy the offhand axe on accident but dunno about main hands.

You can only buy the shield and tier 1 weapons aswell as relics/libram.

Wands? I ran out of arena points after getting my weapon and have to use a spirit wand for PvP! ftl.

[The Stig]

Ah thanks Metta. Can you confirm to me how much the shield costs? Wowhead doesn't tell me. My workmate says 70 honor which seems like a weird price tag for me, and Falaras said he got 80 honor (might have misunderstood but it seemed like he had 80 left after shield?)

Basically in such case I was thinking of stealing the shield on my Paladin which is level 68, will be 80 soon I hope (i'm sure it won't be hard to rack up some honor via BGs). I'm not too sure but I think a PvP shield like that would probably be better than anything I could buy/earn in a drop in a random heroic for the time being, even if for tanking/healing only and just to bump up my iLvl/gearscore so I can get into heroics a bit "easier".

Yeah wands too, got it on my lock.

[Miraun]

So, I saw Ruke's commentary on warrior tanking... how should a prot pally take into account Mastery and reforging? Seems like warrior mastery is a hell of a lot better than pally mastery.

Thats right its 70 honour and thats kind of weird i think myself, like the 50k mounts are 2,5k honour but the 264 trinket is only 900 and something prices are really weird if you ask me.

[Arcana]

the mounts are now 2k and the prices for things do seem a bit odd, it really dosn't matter now the season has ended.

[schlomo]

Its all T1 weapons and all wrathful pieces except for shoulders that you can buy, so no T2 weapons and no wrathful shoulders.
