there needs to be a limit to how many singles of something someone can put up. going through 5 pages of single volatile life because some dickwhistle thought it would be cute to put his 60 up 1 at a time is fucking annoying.

Only 60? There was an idiot who put over 200 singles of Netherweave up on Horde side last month. I wanted to do horrible, horrible things to them. Totally agree on a limit though. I hardly ever get a scroll bar for my "selling" page, and if I do it's for one item past. The 10-20 range would be good.

I complained about that a while ago, but they seriously need to do something about AH search. Duplicate should only be listed once, and if you click on it, you see the whole list. It would makes browsing much less painful, and not just for mats.


Same deal with the crafting UI. Add a filter "lvl 80 and less" shit, and increase the size of the goddamn window so I can see more than 3 recipes at time.

not so much a complaint but it is lolworthy to post. Got the quest in sw for the lunar festival, says to talk to a chick in the Park (or other cites) I think "wait, what park?" (was destroyed during cata for horde peeps). Sure enough the ? on the map is at a part that is just water and there are no npcs there.

GG @ bliz for remembering to update their yearly events considering the map changes.


Of course not a big deal 'cause I can just go to a difference city, but ya it was still funny.

Man people are so bad at this game.

Been doing WSG's on my rogue as it's WSG weekend and PvE is really boring as a rogue to me. Up to 28/29 for this to happen:

Get into a group and a 2k hp paladin (my rogue only has 1.4k with fort/kings and has full BoA) says "They only have 1 priest and 1 shaman, we should have this." So I'm thinking this dude is going to carry the flag, not have any issues doing so and we'll 3-cap in 6-7min. A minute later I see that's not how the match will be. 5 horde are still sitting in the FR, including the 2k hp paladin. Dude never leaves except when they come and get the flag, then he hopelessly chases after them since he cannot snare or anything. I return the flag once or twice since we're still "in the game" if the guy decides to go on offense. He never does. I stop returning the flag and let them win.

Next BG I have the same dude. So I start fucking with him. My first line is telling him he wears his class color with pride. He comes back and says I did nothing last match myself (I was top horde KB's and 2nd or 3rd in damage, behind some hunters). This match I get a hunter to go on the initial rush to the flag. 4 stay on D, 4 either move to attack the alliance and die or get picked off by the alliance on the way. Hunter gets flag, I clear out the flag room for him and kill 2 people before they get to attack him. A rogue is attacking him, I come up and cheap shot him to stop the damage, kill the rogue, but my hutner died so I pickup the flag. Carry it to roof, no one comes to help me, I eventually get caught by 2-3 people and killed. The 8 people on my team fail to try to defend me or get the flag back. The whole time I'm attempting to explain how WSG works to this paladin, as well that a rogue specializes in returning flags and a protection paladin (which is how he was spec'd) specializes in carrying the flags.

So they get up 1-0, but just to prove that I am good at what I do, I return the next two flags. With 7-8min to go some other paladin comes up to carry the flag. 1300hp, not great, but I'll take it. I escort him to our base, and of course the paladin on D cannot keep the flag there, so they have our flag. All 8 other members of the team are in mid, northern half of it at this point so I think they'll be able to take the guy down, it's just a 1k hp hunter. A few minutes pass by and nope, they've all wiped. So I leave my FC and go get the berserking buff and head to alliance GY where the FC is. I tell the paladin as I'm on ramp to move to where the flag stand is to cap it. I inform him 10s prior to me taking action that the flag is incoming. I then shadowstep ambush-vanish-ambush click-flag faster than all 7 alliance swarming me and return the flag. The flag doesn't cap. 10s later, a rogue picks up the flag. My entire team is still in the northern half of the map, despite not being near where I had just returned the flag, and with 1min to go no one is able to get to the EFC and get the flag back, so we lose.

So 3 huge solo flag returns in the game from me and not a single attempt from the 2k hp paladin to get the flag. My team is angry at me and calling me names throughout this too. Which is to be expected, since they were all terrible.

I wish people were better at this game.

[Aksannyi]

That shit is why I absolutely despise WSG.

[Plow]

I've been leveling a war, I keep getting games where we get up 2-0 and the opponents give up... except they don't give up on fighting, they just give up on winning.

Seriously these people are down 0-2 and they ALL go sit in their flag room for 15 minutes...

[Siniroth]

If you can't win, just be a HUGE pain in the ass.

People are so bad at heroics it amazes me. Just trying to get my daily done yesterday, I had 4 hours before going out to watch the football games and I spent that entire time trying to carry group after group to a final boss. I want to say I partied with about 20 different DPS and none of them were above 8k DPS. I had two DKs, a warrior, and a spriest who couldn't break 4k, and a hunter who's pet twice aggroed trash groups in Grim Batol when we were passing by them. Like, these guys weren't even good enough to fail at bosses, they couldn't even do the trash right. I had to explain to one guy why I kept putting skulls on certain mobs.

It shouldn't be surprising, then, that simple mechanics like "don't stand in the fire" evaded them as well. I finally broke down and went with a couple guild DPS later on. I finally understand why people treat the queue like it's a fucking plague and why there's so much whining about how heroics are too hard. For the majority of people out there, they are.

[Viq]

I had a similar experience today where we had this ret pally pulling a solid 3.2k dps in Throne of Tides. I mentioned that we were certain to wipe on the last boss with only 2 real dps, and somehow I became the villain and got booted instead of the moron was being doubled up by the tank. At least I saved some money on the repairs that were sure to be needed after that group finally disbanded.

That's why I want heroics nerfed to the ground so bad, because of the experience you had. I can handle the heroics fine, but the community cant. Your average joeblow player is dumb as shit. After waiting an hour in the queue, i don't want the inevitable wiping and disbanding that comes up in 75% of my groups. And before it's said, no, I don't have the luxury of having guildmates to go with. Raids should be the event that break people, not fucking heroics. You do raids with the same people (most of the time) so there's accountability. Heroics are set up to be with randoms, you can't throw 5 random players together and expect them to have an IQ above 12 every time.

And on that note, my bitch is i seem to get the same 3 people in my heroics: the prima donna healer that afks frequently or acts like their shit don't stink, because hey, they're the healer. What's everyone gonna do? Bitch em out and wait another hour? The "angry at the world tank", and the troll hunter that can't break 3k dps AND move out of the shit on the ground at the same time. I swear, if i get hunters like this after they implement auto-shot while moving, i'm going to track these people down and snap their necks. It's frustrating.

[Siniroth]

Oh god was his name Nico something? I just had a 3.4k ret pally in an attempted SFK run that couldn't interrupt pain & suffering consistently, and rept running up to healer for some reason mid fight, couldn't kick him for 29 minutes so I just ditched myself

This is why I hate wrath babies. Compared to Heroic Slabs and Halls in TBC, Heroics still today are a joke. I will never understand how standing out of the fire, learning a basic rotation, and doing cc is so difficult. People today are spoiled by how much of a joke Wrath Heroics are and think shit can be AOE'd down repeatedly. Keep the heroics hard people either need to nut up and learn to fucking play or go install hello kitty island adventure.

No, just no. no matter how much you say "learn to play" they wont. Yes, they should be able to handle it, fact of the matter is they can't. The average player has the brain capacity of a rock. Blizz will eventually cave and nerf them to the ground, they just need to hurry the fuck up. Tired of xsephriothx dying to crap like whirlwind from trash...it's mind-numbing.

Well, sometimes RNG can get you, even in heroics. But most PUGs will fight and disband at the first sign of trouble, which is worse than fucking up. People are so quick to place blame on the tank/healer instead of just forgetting it and focusing on finishing the damn instance. The attitudes are just as big of a problem. In wrath if you wiped in a heroic its likely because someone was terrible, if you wipe in cata sometimes shit just happens.

But agreed, I hope they keep the difficulty as is. Ghostcrawler has repeatedly said heroic difficulty will remain constant, so it'll become progressively easier as content patches are released and average gear levels rise. It doesn't matter much in the end, but it's still amazingly frustrating to NEED a guild group or premade just so you can get your daily valor points. I don't want them to nerf things, but I do think they either need to change the ilevel requirement or at least have it check and filter out PVP gear.

I hate people like this, Ret Paladins FINALLY get the interrupt we have been saying we needed since vanilla and it's even one of the lowest cooldown interrupts in the game...then they don't use it.

I leveled a DK on another server to play with a friend, picked herbalism and mining because I didn't have my other characters there to support myself. Easily made 10K from gathering just while leveling from 80-85. This character is horde, so BG queue times can go up to 30-40 minutes(which is something to complain about on its own), so I decided to gather shit in between queues to build up some gold. Afterwards, I go to post the bags full of mats that I farmed only to find out that all the herbs and volatiles I was selling for 15g yesterday have plummeted to 2-3g each. Is it really necessary to undercut all the way down to 15% of the original value? Are you really that desperate to make quick gold?

>implying this hasn't been happening since the beginning of virtual time

just wait a day or so and it'll go back up if that's the true value. I love the undercutters, I've bought truegold for 600g when it goes for 850+ and just resold them immediately.

[Ksandra]

I love wsg, but ya this weekend sucked for it (for me). Mostly because everyone I got in had two sets of 4+ horde premades. Made me pissed too 'cause my hubby almost has exalted in WSG and we were gonna try to get him it this weekend, but he got so pissed. Guess better to farm rep on non call to arms weekend even if it's less rep per game.
