They should have just made it x kills in battlegrounds with orphan out or something, call it "A History of Violence" or some such...would be less irritating, since you could stand back and heal for credit or just pew pew alli targets and get to the needed total.

nah they don't want that... they took out the achievement called something like... "orphaned" where you kill someone with their orphan out. I was so looking foward to it too ;/

[Noobta]

Yeah there was an achievement to kill 10 players who had their orphan out. "Once an Orphan..."
Maybe it was offensive? Seems like the only reason to take out an easy achievement.

[Jodwahh]

Yeah there was an uproar on the forums about the achievement so they removed it. Then there was an uproar about it being removed. Sometimes I feel sorry for Blizzard :D

3.1 absolutely destroyed my farming.

saronite ore from 22 > 15
icethorn from 40 > 24
lichbloom from 66 > 18.

wtf man.

lichbloom still 40-50g on my server. Icethorn jumps from 25-40

I'm guessing its gold farmers still out in force. It's the only thing that makes sense. I'm still hoarding a few choice farmables in the hope that prices will return to what they were pre-3.1, but it's looking less and less likely

[Gulkeeva]

Could do what I do, farm BG marks etc for 10K honor and get the red blue quality gem, cut it and sell on AH for 100g each.

Killing people, getting massive honor.. and something to do with all that dam honor while making money!

Only complaint about that is children's week has made getting honor slow because you lose about 80% the bg's now with people all focused on doing the achievement ;/

[Noobta]

Gem prices suck on my server. All are 10g~ except for scarlet, which stays around 40-50g.

I think my only complaint would be having to PUG everything but not being able to get into many PUGs. Of course there is the "link achievements" hill to get over as i cant do these if im not invited haha. Most of the time i feel like a r-tard because even though im capable of following instructions and reading up on fights, i have to say that ive never done certain fights.

Funny story though, i responded to a naxx pug. The mage wanted to inspect me, now im arcane and hit capped with ~1800 or so spellpower unbuffed. Nothing awesome but able to run in naxx... the mage with 9% hit, using ttw/fb and rocking 1350 spellpower said that I was pushing it... i pretty much lol'd but realized that these people just look for level 80 purples and i happen to be wearing like 5 blues, a ring, hat, wand, kirin'tor weap and then the +73 hit and +73 crit trinkets.

naxx is srs bsns i guess

oh and i hate that im alliance but i feel like ive invested to much to start over on horde haha

all that and people cant even say my name right on vent, i usually hear "hey pro.. prog.. uhh progina, proginamonoski, prognosis... the mage (or prog)." Is Proginoskes that difficult?

fixed

[Gulkeeva]

Scarlet Ruby's on my server are 70-80g each... doing WG+BG daily + farming some marks and honor maybe 2-3 hours a day can get about 12-15 gems, its a nice passtime if waiting for something like raid or BG's or waiting for something interesting in LFG you can do on your alt.

I've only now realized how badly average geared Fury Warrior have been screwed by the TG nerf. My gear is okay, a mix of T7.1 and T7.5 with a few pre-3.1 BIS pieces, but my weapons just suck for doing EoE or Ulduar now (still using a Titansteel Destroyer and a Colossal Skull-Clad Cleaver). I've had the worst luck on weapon drops in Naxx and other raids =\

The 10% nerf is way, way more damaging to those TG Warrior's who aren't equipping BIS items in every slot. I used to do 3.5k+ in Naxx25 without breaking a sweat (with lesser gear than now even) and even topped 4k in some spots, but last weekend I struggled to break 2.8k most of the time; it was fucking pathetic.

[Russta]

Warriors always have and likely always will scale too well with gear. The problem is when the nerf bat comes swinging, it's those on the lower end of the scale that take the full brunt of it.

I blame Damaga.

I respec TTW/Fire. My DPS goes down 1k, threat goes up through the roof. Its not supposed to work like that =(.

Are you sacrificing alot for hit?

also is that on a dummy or in a raid or what?

I pretty much just swapped out one piece and went to the badge offhand instead of matriarch's spawn. I lost ~60ish haste and gained some crit. In a raid setting it was pretty bad compared to my arcane DPS. I'm pretty sure its a gear issue because rather than pre 3.1 bis, I'm pretty close. That or I've been getting owned on RNG. I got a grand total of 18 hs pyros on KT last night, with a ~56% Fireball crit rate.

I'm just tired of the mana problems as arcane and the fact that I cant actually utilize half the fight mechanics because it ooms me so quick. However, my performance as arcane is much better with less threat problems.

56% crit and only 18 HSs does seem low. Either RNG owned or you're missing/not prioritizing hotstreak enough? I hate to question your playstyle, but what's your cast priority like? Are you chaining the instant pyro right on the tail end of a FB cast?

Yeah I'm almost always right on top of tank's threat usually. I hold my Mirror images in reserve, use them with high threat and go buck wild, then invisible before they poof. With the GCD added to them their use as a 'dps tool' is minimal.

One final thought is if you're talking about a 10man raid, it's easy not to have the raid buffs that make fireball really shine. Ele Shaman in particular does wonders for me.
