15:33.31Mr_Rabiesi love how a bunch of people that hack wow are the ones freaking out, along with people that have no clue what the information means
15:33.44Noxyindeed
15:34.05fewyni don't use the wow ss tool anyways
15:34.05Mr_Rabiesit's literally just the name of your account, which really only matters internally to blizzard, not your login ID or anything, server IP, and server time
15:35.21Mr_Rabiesand there's a distinct possibility they just left it on after cata beta on accident
15:35.27Mr_Rabiesbecause that's around when it showed up
15:35.42Mr_Rabiesand it makes sense to have that kind of info for a beta, to track down leaks, etc
15:36.09fewynMr_Rabies pretty sure it's been enabled since like 2008

16:24.05MyTieif you really want to lose a lot of weight, you should do circuit training, and eat nothing but eggs. You'll shed pounds of fat faster than with a knife, but on the downside you'll fart constantly
16:24.15Noxythe apartment complex will have one, but I'm sure it'll be overly chlorinated. ):
16:24.37MyTiethe farts will smell like burning sulfer
16:25.25Noxynah, that sort of diet will just make you crash harder when you try to go back to eating regular food. I'm just doing it gently, lifestyle changes.

18:34.36Jammerif one person takes 6/8 hc guild save and clears it with some random group can the guild still extend it the next week?
18:34.54eidyiayah - it's an individual lock
18:34.59eidyiathat person just can't join
18:35.08eidyiaelse people will be prompted to join his lock
18:35.19Jammereven if it's after reset?
18:35.35eidyiaraid id's are individual
18:35.44eidyiaso - 1 person can extend it for themselves
18:35.53eidyiathey should be lead, zone in first after extending the lock
18:36.00eidyiathen everyone else will be prompted to join that lock
18:36.22dewdso for my concern. the person did win a mount yesterday and today? .. just wanted to know to know if the person was active at that time.

18:46.11Jammereidyia: so basically you could take 10man raid clear 7/8 and then clear last boss 10 times with different alts
18:46.25eidyiano
18:46.31eidyiait's individual - not account
18:46.41eidyiaif toonA clears 7/8
18:46.52eidyiatoonB, toonC, etc. will need to still do 7/8
18:46.56eidyiathat's not a shared lock
18:47.08eidyiayou get locked when you down a boss
18:47.10Jammerno I mean you take each of the 10 people that cleared 7 bosses
18:47.15Jammerthen each of those lead their own raid to last boss
18:47.16eidyiaoh

18:48.10eidyiaas the last boss is harder and people usually down it with their group
18:48.27Jammeryep indeed
18:48.29Amarandeeidyia: heh, 6/8 would be more rational in that light with DS, then
18:48.40Amarandeit's generally accepted, at least on heroic, that Spine is a goodly amount harder than Madness
18:48.59Amarandeheh, possibly even to the kind of degree often seen in, say, JRPGs and FPS
18:49.41Amarandewhere often the second to last boss is actually the hardest one, and in FPS (see DOOM II and a lot of its full-level replacements as good examples especially) the second to last level actually tends to be the climax in difficulty terms
18:49.48eidyiayou could Jammer take a group and do 7/8 in 10m, then run 10 groups doing the last boss, but i doubt you'd find many people who'd just want to do the last boss - as the loot throughout the whole run is of value
18:53.54Jammerwell if people just want mount :p
18:54.06Jammerespecially now towards end of expansion
18:54.33Stormscapeoh look, Steam finally supports install paths, something every other program has supported since the dawn of physical storage.

19:02.34StormscapeRemember how Blizzard said the new talent system would eliminate cookie cutter specs? Well they were wrong. Go check out wowpopular.com, everybody's using only 1 spec.
19:02.59Stormscapefor some classes it's really hilarious, even the unpopular specs are exactly the same except for 1 talent
19:03.15Stormscapehttp://wowpopular.com/Hunter/Talents date vareity

19:03.24fewynyep
19:03.28hyljethey just failed at balancing as usual despite rigging the game into actually having a chance
19:04.06Amarandehas it been determined that there's a significant advantage to these specs, or is everyone just playing follow the leader?
19:04.24AmarandeEJ seemed to be distinctly silent on 5.0 pre-information compared to earlier ages of Azeroth
19:04.43Stormscapehttp://wowpopular.com/Priest/Shadow/Talents why would anybody ever take void tendrils though, that seems so useless for well
19:04.45Amarandein fact, EJ often hadn't updated many specs even to 4.3 when that was out for oh, almost a year
19:04.45Stormscapeeverything
19:04.49Stormscapewouldn't mobs just 1 shot them?
19:05.11Amarandefor that matter, how are people choosing level 90 talents already?
19:05.19Amarandeor are you able to pick all your talents from the get-go and they just don't kick in till then?
19:06.22AmarandeI see frost is super popular, and that I didn't pick the cookie cutter build
19:08.30AmarandeI took Cold Snap instead of Cauterize :P
19:10.50eidyiaI think specs will shift once people start getting into leveling/raiding again
19:10.53eidyiaor pvp
19:11.09eidyiai started with the recommended core build - but already shifting it around
19:11.15eidyiaespecially when i can change on the fly with dust

20:59.27Amarande"This realm is being restarted to resolve various issues. Cross realm restart in 15:00"

21:00.31fewynnot a patch but a hotfix probably
21:00.33AmarandeRolling restarts for all realms
21:01.06Amarandeand apparently there's a fairly (for recent 85's anyway) stringent gear requirement for Theramore too :P
21:01.23AmarandeI don't remember there being strict gear requirements for any previous pre-expansion events :|
21:03.35Stormscapewell this one is different
21:03.38Stormscapeyou can do it at 90
21:04.21Amarandeah, the scenario remains available throughout mop?
21:04.36StormscapeYes
21:06.05fewynthen sometime after mop releases (probably 5.1) thermore will go byebye
21:06.12fewynbut scenario will still exist

21:10.08Stormscapehah, General is still bugged on Area 52
21:10.30Eraclitobugged?
21:10.58Amarandehmm, I think these so called cookie cutter builds may be from beta, which would explain the relative lack of variety
21:11.41Amarandeespecially given the large number that have a level 90 talent chosen
21:11.59Amarande(also, beta may have imbalances that did not appear on live)
21:12.58Djones_Or
21:13.08Djones_As always
21:13.08Djones_x is better than y
21:13.27DjaneCookie cutter builds will always exist in a system such as wow.
21:13.36DjaneWhere a measurable competetive edge can be maintained.
21:14.00Djanethe only thing the new talent system is changing is moving the momentum away from Tier cookie cutter builds to Fight specific cookie cutter builds, which actually top raiders were doing anyways
21:15.48Jammerit's also limiting/giving you more choices on the interesting stuff
21:16.00Jammerlike can have 1 cc only but can choose between 3 different types
21:17.10JammerI like they made it pretty simple now, cause in practice you had those must have talents you needed to take anyway
21:17.37Jammernow choice A might be stronger than B and C but probably not by huge margin
21:19.14fewyndebating if i want to move wow to my ssdeez or not
21:21.08Djanefewyn, doesn't really make much difference I believe.
21:22.10fewynFASTER LOADING
21:22.12fewynFAAAAAASTER
21:22.25fewynmust shave off that 2ms
21:22.56AmarandeI'm still wondering what the reason for caster DPS to need more hit in heroics is, though
21:23.13AmarandeFrom what I've seen, it looks like you need 2% less hit in raids, but you need WAY more hit in heroics (12% now it looks like)
21:23.30AmarandePhysical DPS did not get any alterations to their hit needs, it looks like, OTOH
21:23.52fewynoh hey they did the currency conversion today
21:24.05Amarandedoesn't really seem any rationale for making it harder on casters in heroics *shrug*
21:24.32fewynthey did the currency conversion today
21:24.34fewynfor NA
21:24.36fewynhttp://uplol.fewyn.net/2012-09-11_17-24-14.jpg
21:24.49AmarandeUnless maybe they're trying to do it in order to cut back on the glut of mages that arrived with Cata (due to the relative convenience of getting around vs. other classes when the portals were gone in Shattrath/Dala)
21:28.51DjaneNo.
21:29.15AmarandeWell, it seems like a silly notion anyway.
21:29.38Amarande12% hit even for heroics means that caster DPS have to spend more time gearing up for heroics, no?
21:30.21AmarandeWhich ... seems like a fairly dumb thing to do, given that that means more grinding dungeons for JP and gear drops even to be optimal for 5-man
21:30.29StormscapeOH MY LAWDY http://www.reddit.com/r/metacanada
21:30.30Amarandeand DPS get to do fewer dungeons on average, not more (due to greater queue times)
21:30.52Amarandeand two caster DPS classes (mage and warlock) don't even have the option of switching to a tank or healer spec to improve said rate
21:30.53StormscapeMan it must suck to not be a class that gets hit from spirit

21:31.47DjaneThe idea that getting hit would be hard is dependant on the idea that getting gear is hard.
21:31.48Amarandesoo ... druids, shamans, and priests
21:31.49Stormscapeso I have to reforge most of it away
21:32.00DjaneSince getting gear is roflstomp easy
21:32.03Djanegetting hit is roflstomp easy.
21:32.08Stormscape^
21:32.20Stormscapeif you can't get 12% hit for a Heroic, perhaps WoW isn't for you
21:32.37Amarande(Paladins don't have a caster DPS spec anyway, and I'd presume that if you wanted to optimise gear acquisition rate as a pally you'd want to tank anyway)
21:32.54Amarandehell, if you want to optimise anything as a pally, you'd want to tank anyway :)
21:32.58Mr_Rabieshell, i've reforged all my hit off on my feral druid and i still am almost at hit cap
21:33.01Amarandebecause prot pally is just THAT GOOD
21:33.13Mr_Rabiesi'm at 7.37% reforging every piece that has hit on it off to another stat
21:33.35AmarandeDjane: are you referring to getting gear via dungeons, or getting gear via keeping up the dailies grind and spending the gold on the auction house?
21:33.48Mr_Rabiesand 15.18% spell hit, somehow
21:33.52DjaneI wasn't aware any of that is hard?
21:33.52Mr_Rabiesi thought they were normalized O_o
21:33.56Amarandewhat I'm noting is that the rate of getting gear via dungeons is a function of how many dungeons you do during a given time period
21:34.08DjaneAnd?
21:34.09Amarandefor a pure DPS class, you gear up slower, because you do fewer dungeons during a given time period because your queues are longer.
21:34.15DjaneNot relaly.
21:34.17Djanereally*
21:34.25Stormscapequeues pretty much cap at 10 minutes nowadays
21:34.26Djanebecause you use that time to do other things
21:34.29Djane^
21:34.29Stormscapebecause of the bags
21:34.36Mr_Rabiesyou do gear up slower, but it's still insanely quick
21:34.37DjaneAnd cross realm stuff now too
21:34.45DjaneYou don't really gear up slower
21:34.46StormscapeI can't even take a poop in 10 minutes
21:34.50DjaneYou only gear up slower each day
21:34.57Mr_Rabieshonestly, i hope to never pug again via normal means
21:35.01Amarandealso, you'd think that they'd make it easier, not harder, to gear for heroics for another reason:
21:35.03Mr_Rabiesi'll be doing 5 mans with my friends hopefully
21:35.03StormscapeI've had multiple times where I hit queue as DPS
21:35.04fewynanyone know what level granting stops at for RAF?
21:35.05Amarandethere are no normal dungeons at level 90 in MoP
21:35.07Stormscapeand get it instantly
21:35.09Stormscapefewyn: 80 afaik
21:35.14DjaneAmarande, why do you think it's hard?
21:35.17fewynok that's what i thought
21:35.18Amarandeinstead, level 90 dungeons and heroics are synonymous
21:35.18Djanein any way?
21:35.22DjaneWow throws loot at you constantly
21:35.23StormscapeSo?
21:35.24AmarandeDjane: the hit cap used to be significantly lower for +2 levels
21:35.28StormscapeSo?
21:35.29Mr_Rabiesyeah, i don't know why they did that Amarande :|
21:35.32AmarandeI'm wondering what the specific reason they raised it was
21:35.39Mr_Rabieswhy even call them heroics
21:35.39DjaneNot to mention it's easy enough to do dungeons in crap gear anyways
21:35.45DjaneIn wrath you could do dungeons naked
21:35.46Amarandeespecially since they didn't do anything with the non-caster hit caps
21:35.50DjaneLike, for reals.
21:35.57Amarande(it is nice that they lowered the raid hit cap for casters, though)
21:35.59DjaneYou could meet all the heroic requirements with ZERO gear on, as a dps.
21:36.05StormscapeYes they did, you'll get dodged like a motherfucker without 7.5% expertise
21:36.09DjaneIn cata the same wa salmost mostly true.
21:36.32Mr_Rabiesthey're easy as hell and there's no harder version, why not just drop the heroic tag
21:36.36Amarandeoh right, expertise
21:36.38StormscapeI fail to see how 15% hit will be hard to get without Heroic gear
21:36.41Amarandetells you how long it's been since I played melee :)

21:37.36Amarandewhere the regular version is lower level
21:37.36fewynoh

21:37.54StormscapeThink about that.
21:37.59Stormscapehit will not be hard to get.
21:38.00Amarandewhat they did away with was the idea of having cap level regular dungeons as a separate progression stepping stone before cap level heroics
21:38.17Mr_Rabiesreforging makes hit totally trivial to get
21:38.32Amarandeso all the level 90 dungeons in MoP are like the Zandalari and later heroics in Cata that didn't have a regular version
21:38.35Mr_Rabiesto the point that i don't even see the point in having it on gear anymore, it might as well be baseline
21:38.37Stormscapeand really as long as you're within 2% of the cap you're high enough for dungeons

21:39.05AmarandeMr_Rabies: heh, between that and the Blizzard gear simplification initiative starting with 4.0
21:39.13Amarandesometimes I've quipped that eventually we'll just have a single stat for PvE
21:39.17Amarandewe can call it awesome or something like that
21:39.17Mr_Rabiesi love the gear simplification initiative
21:39.30Mr_Rabiesi think gear should be more simple than it is now, even
21:39.35AmarandeAwesome rating increases all spec-appropriate stats. Gear with more awesome rating is an improvement, and that's all you need, heh
21:39.50Mr_Rabieslike, instead of ratings, show "Adds 1.29% hit" etc
21:40.01Mr_Rabiessure, it'll change as you level up
21:40.13AmarandeOr maybe, PvE Power and PvE Defence? heh
21:40.28StormscapeAmarande they'd never do that because it'd be too simple
21:40.28Amarandeto go along with how they've for years made PvP basically a single-stat affair (well, double stat now)
21:40.31Gnarfozit's certainly more confusing vor items to change around as your level changes.
21:40.33Mr_Rabiesit'll be weird to see gear get effectively weaker, but i'm perfectly okay with that
21:40.33Stormscapeyou might as well play an FPS at that point
21:40.57AmarandeStormscape: yeah, and I did not regard the PvP single-statting to be a good thing either, actually :)
21:41.07Stormscapewho gives a shit about PvP
21:41.07Amarandeit was like ... idc what your other stats are, HOW MUCH RESIL?
21:41.20Mr_Rabiesyeah, pvp's pretty much dead to me, i haven't done any since 4.1
21:41.33Mr_Rabiesarenas are a blight on the game, in my opinion
21:41.38StormscapeI haven't PvPed since 2.4
21:41.39AmarandeOTOH, rating decay has pretty much made PvE a single stat affair too in most cases
21:41.42StormscapeMeditate on that.
21:41.45fewynhttp://uplol.fewyn.net/2012-09-11_17-40-37.jpg
21:41.53Amarandewith every expansion, the need to push people to better gear results in the ratings decaying more and more
21:41.58Stormscape>701 days
21:42.01Stormscapeconfirmed supernerd
21:42.19Amarandeto the point that rating points are basically just sugar on top, because a primary stat point ends up having 9000x as much weight as a rating point
21:42.34Amarandeit's related to the "green gems almost always suck" phenomenon, too, really heh
21:42.38Mr_Rabiesi'm up to 386d, and i took two years off between ZA and May 2010
21:42.44Stormscapeha, it's /never/ been that way for shadow priests
21:42.52StormscapeWe've been playing 3 stat juggling for years now
21:43.42AmarandeI suppose they could cure this by fixing up the ratings and stat systems so there aren't huge jumps in gear with each expansion and there isn't anywhere near as much of a drive to upgrade gear frequently
21:43.59Stormscapethis is a gear based game, that'd kill it.
21:44.02Amarandemuch like, say, LOTRO, where you often upgrade gear at a fairly glacial pace even across expansion cap boundaries
21:44.18Amarandeand some gear items last you ten levels or more (again, even across expansion cap boundaries)
21:45.05Gnarfozfewyn: install LifePercent :F
21:45.12Amarandealso, we could probably use a smoothing of the gear progression anyway
21:45.24Amarandeas anyone who's hit 80 on a new character since cata can say :P
21:45.27StormscapeI'd never play a game with gear progression that slow
21:45.30DjaneWut
21:45.32DjaneWait, wut.
21:45.39DjaneHow is the gear progression not smooth?
21:45.47Stormscapegear progression is stupidly smooth
21:45.47DjaneYou go levelling greens, blues, purples...
21:45.48AmarandeDjane: the jumps at 60/70/80
21:45.53DjaneWhat jumps?
21:45.53Stormscapewhat about them?
21:46.01Stormscapethey're pretty much invisible
21:46.08Stormscapethe quest mobs are designed to be killed in greens
21:46.10JunkHeadwakes up, throws a LOTRO disc on the ground, shits on it, then leaves again.
21:46.17Amarandeespecially 80, where you've probably been humming along happily, enjoying the world as you level and OMG WTF IT'S LIKE EVERY MOB IS ELITE ALL OF A SUDDEN
21:46.25Stormscapemaybe if you're bad
21:46.27Stormscapebe less bad
21:46.45Stormscapewhich is sound advice for any video game
21:46.51Stormscapeif you're suddenly finding it hard, get better
21:46.53AmarandeStorm: there is a very large and sudden upgrade in mob power when you go from Northrend to Vashj'ir or Hyjal
21:46.58JunkHeadI'm actually gonna gree with Stormscape here. Once you hit 80, mobs aren't that bad.
21:47.02DjaneAmarande, no there isn't.
21:47.02StormscapeYeah it's called difficulty
21:47.06Amarandethat's the kind of "progression smoothing" I was speaking of
21:47.18Djanethere is a significant difference of mob difficulty from say, Howling Fjord and Hyjal
21:47.18Stormscapeif they made those mobs any easier I'd be 1 shotting them
21:47.20*** mode/#wowhead [+o alayton] by ChanServ
21:47.23DjaneGo to the harder zones of icecrown
21:47.25StormscapeI was 2 shotting them at 80 in greens
21:47.26Stormscapeon my mage
21:47.28Djanethey're harder than the opening zones of hyjal
21:47.32Stormscapemy mage was in greens
21:47.36JunkHeadand if they are, for some reason a little tough... you'll have 2-3 upgrades in about 10 quests.
21:47.42DjaneNot my fault you got to 80 before you did Icecrown or stom peaks.
21:47.45AmarandeDjane: that's because in the harder parts of Icecrown, most of the mobs actually *are* elite :)

21:47.52DjaneAmarande, and yet not.
21:47.57Djaneonly some bosses.
21:48.07StormscapeI found late Icecrown far harder than Hyjal or Vashj'ir
21:48.17DjaneBecause it is
21:48.23AmarandeAnd actually most people hit 80 well before Icecrown or Storm Peaks in LK too
21:48.24JunkHeadGroup quests made the achievements hard to get.:(
21:48.27alaytonif you dont think theres a substantial difficulty jump when leveling at 80, youre either trolling or ignorant
21:48.37Stormscapewait what no
21:48.38DjaneNo.
21:48.41StormscapeI was done Storm Peaks before 80
21:48.42AmarandeJunk: and isn't there still at least the one quest in Icecrown that can't be soloed even at 85 in BiS?
21:48.55StormscapeI /had/ to go to icecrown because I ran out of content
21:49.01DjaneStormscape, but you hit 80 before cata
21:49.07StormscapeDjane i meanto n my mage
21:49.09JunkHeadNot that I know of.I went back at 85 and did IC 100% as best to my knowledge
21:49.10Stormscapethat I levelled in Cata
21:49.15AmarandeStorm: you did every single quest in the other zones of Northrend and didn't hit 80?
21:49.17DjaneStormscape, then you're weird :P
21:49.24StormscapeI never do Borean Tundra
21:49.26Stormscapefuck Borean Tundra
21:49.28DjaneThe point is you can hit 80 before you get out of grizzly hills nowadays
21:49.32Djaneand if you're going grizzly hills to Hyjal
21:49.35Djanethen of course it's a jump
21:49.39DjaneTHAT'S the jump
21:49.44Djanenot cata content
21:49.49Djanegoing from mid northrend to cata.
21:49.56AmarandeDjane: and even if you do most of the rest of northrend, it's still a fairly large jump
21:49.56DjaneAnd within 10 quests lol easy again.
21:49.59DjaneNo, it isn't.
21:50.05StormscapeI do Howling Fjord 68-71, Dragonblight for 71-72, Grizzly for 72-74
21:50.06DjaneLate ICC and SP is HARDER than hyjal
21:50.11Amarandeif you do quests only and no dungeons
21:50.11Djanemobs have more health, they hit harder
21:50.13StormscapeZF for 74-77
21:50.17StormscapeStorm Peaks for 77-79
21:50.18JunkHeadUsually though, questing like that, in that level zone, do some dungeons too. so mater you might get some gear.
21:50.18DjaneThey're more of them, they have more complicated mechanics
21:50.21Stormscapethen Icecrown for 79-80
21:50.24Amarandeyou're still not going to have better than i174 when you leave for Cata
21:50.30Stormscapewhich is plenty
21:50.31JunkHeadbeing 79 in grizzly hills gear will make you scuk at 80.
21:50.34DjaneAmarande, lol
21:50.42JunkHeadbut hell, do HoS, orHoL too.
21:50.45DjaneIf you do icc you'll be in full i200's
21:51.07DjaneAnd that's just hyjal
21:51.15Djanevashj'ir is a laughable joke in comparison
21:51.15JunkHeadI will agree that the jump from GH to Hyjal would be brutal... but... why would you do that?
21:51.23DjaneJunkHead, because people hit 80 in GH
21:51.26AmarandeYeah, that's one of the other things about the jump
21:51.35JunkHeadif you can hit 80 in grizzly, that means you probably should've skipped grizzly
21:51.42DjaneYes, but they don't.
21:51.43StormscapeVashj'ir requires literally no skill at all
21:51.45Stormscapefor the first 1/3
21:51.45JunkHeadI usually hit 80 in gundrak
21:51.48JunkHeador zuldrak
21:51.48AmarandeLater Northrend zones tended to rely on mob quantity rather than individual mob power, right?
21:51.49Stormscapeyou don't even need gear
21:51.52JunkHeadwhatever its called
21:51.53DjaneJunkHead, yeah a 76 zone
21:51.57JunkHeadyup.
21:51.59DjaneAmarande, no.
21:52.10DjaneOnly in a couple of areas you don't actually go too anyways
21:52.13JunkHeadif I actually do finish it... I do a few quests in IC or Storm peaks.
21:52.15Djaneexcept for some group quests.
21:52.23JunkHeadthen off to hyjal.
21:52.34JunkHeadbecause hyjal sucks
21:52.36JunkHeadoops
21:52.41JunkHeadbecause vashjir sucks
21:52.42AmarandeComparing a late (80) Northrend mob with a starter Hyjal or Vashj'ir mob, the former have 12.6K HP, the latter have 34K+
21:52.53AmarandeThe latter also hit a good deal harder, even though they are both the same level
21:53.06DjaneNot really
21:53.08alaytonyou go from, at best, ilvl 200 at the end of leveling in northrend to 272 in cata, and you want to argue theres a smooth progression there?
21:53.12DjaneYou're comparing easy early Icecrown mobs
21:53.40Djanealayton, i'm considering difficulty, not gear.
21:54.00DjaneSince the hyjal mobs hit like girls, theres only ever 1 of them and they die in 2 shots
21:54.03DjaneI don't consider that hard.
21:54.22DjaneThe issue with health is absolutely ignoring the dps ramp on level 80 retunings
21:54.34DjaneSince you do 3 times the damage at 80 then you do at 79 in the same gear.
21:54.40AmarandeAlso, I was a mage this time. It's probably the most jarring on a ranged DPS class that does not have an effective tanking pet (i.e., mage, shadow priest, balance druid, most non-Demonology warlocks, possibly some non-BM hunters)
21:54.41Djane5 if you're a mage.
21:54.44JunkHeadI will say also though... vashjir would be tougher than hyjal at a shitty gear level.
21:54.45DjaneLol
21:54.52Djanelevel 80 mage is the easiest class to play ever
21:54.54JunkHeadhyjal... nothing below and above you.:P
21:54.55DjaneArcane blast X 1000
21:54.57DjaneNever oom
21:55.02Djaneone shot mobs
21:55.05Djanenever oom
21:55.08AmarandeThe thing is that in Northrend as ranged, you tend to kill mobs before they have a chance to reach you
21:55.10Djanetake off half your gear
21:55.13DjaneNever oom
21:55.25DjaneLevel 80 mages are so incredibly broken I don't even.
21:55.29AmarandeEarly Cata mobs, especially before you get the gear upgrades, they will reach you and start wailing on you before you manage to kill them, since they have so much more health
21:55.37DjaneA level 80 mage will do MORE damage than a mage in 359's at 85.
21:55.51DjaneAmarande, if you don't do 20k dps as a mage at level 80, you're doing it wrong.
21:56.02DjaneArcane blast.
21:56.05DjaneUntil like, you're 85
21:56.06Djanegg
21:56.13NoxyI do it wrong.
21:56.15DjaneThe hit on mages is level 83
21:56.20Noxyplays a fire mage 8D
21:56.24Djanewell, yes. :p
21:56.28JunkHeadmy mage was arcane/frost
21:56.29DjaneNot AS good, but still good
21:56.32AmarandeSo either you have to let them wail on you as you cast (and Ice Barrier does not hold out for the full lifetime of even a single mob) or you have to kite, and use far less powerful instant spells like Ice Lance in order to stay on the move.
21:56.33Djane15k
21:56.34Noxyi like the pew pew firezz
21:56.42NoxypewpewpewpewpewpepwpewpewPYROBLAST
21:56.47AmarandeYeah, I play Frost. Arcane blast implies you're speccing Arcane.
21:56.49DjaneThat awkward moment when Amarande once again ignores everyone and goes off on his own tangent.
21:56.51JunkHeadthe only character i had problems on at 80... was my lock.
21:56.58JunkHeadbecause i have no idea how to play a lock.
21:57.03JunkHeadso i died some.
21:57.07DjaneAmarande, so what you're saying is you found it hard because you levelled in the worst possible spec for levelling? Okay.
21:57.11DjaneGood job, I guess?
21:57.18AmarandeJunk: It's also because if you're not playing Demo, your pet probably is not an effective tank.
21:57.20JunkHeadstill hit 85 though. no major issues
21:57.20NoxyThat awkward moment your husband brings you a ginger ale and it instantly gives you monstrous hiccups.
21:57.21DjaneProtip : frost mage != mage.
21:57.25DjaneNoxy, sad times.
21:57.43AmarandeTherefore, you're probably spending a lot more time getting aggro and being beaten up on than you would if you were a demo lock or a hunter or a melee-oriented class.
21:57.45JunkHeadnope. was destruction. didnt care about spec.
21:57.48StormscapeApparently I have 324 days on my account
21:57.50JunkHeadjust picked one and went with it.
21:57.51Stormscape252 of those days on my priest
21:57.52Noxy...why am I getting the load screen of death.
21:57.59NoxyWorld server better not be down.
21:58.06AmarandeJunk: yeah, as destro, even the voidwalker is not going to be able to hold aggro off you, generally
21:58.07NoxyI've been working since I woke up and I WANT TO PLAY SOME WOW.
21:58.16Amarandethat means mobs are going for you, and that's where you hit trouble at 80
21:58.23JunkHeadwell i never used it anyway. used imp
21:58.34JunkHeadbut i did fine once i got gear
21:58.35Noxy!realmstatus
21:58.38Noxy!realms
21:58.38Amarandebecause until you get the first set of gear upgrades from cata, you're like paper against scissors defensively
21:58.41Noxyfff
21:58.42Elysa!mop
21:58.43fewynserver is fine Noxy

21:58.54NoxySOOOOON AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
21:59.05Noxyoh
21:59.06Noxyhm
21:59.07Amarandeindeed, I really didn't have issues dealing damage in starting Cata
21:59.08Elysamust get GW2 character to 80 before pandas come
21:59.18fewynbl2 comes out next weeeek
21:59.25Amarandeit was the damage the mobs did that was the problem, since your health pool starts out so paper thin if you're going from NR questing into Cata
21:59.27Elysaahhh so many things
21:59.36DjaneAmarande, if you kill a mob in two hits
21:59.40Djanehow is it still hitting you?
21:59.43Stormscape^
21:59.53StormscapeHow did it reach you if you 2 shot it
22:00.03Djaneand if you're not two shotting it
22:00.06AmarandeI'm guessing this is when I should have sucked it up and switched to arcane like everyone else? :P
22:00.15Stormscape>not levelling as arcane
22:00.16Stormscapewut
22:00.18DjaneYeah.
22:00.26DjanePlay however you like
22:00.29DjaneEnjoy it, if you like.
22:00.37AmarandeHowever, that's where we get into the issue we were describing earlier
22:00.41Amarandei.e., cookie cutter specs
22:00.42JunkHeadwhen my mage hit 80, i went frost.
22:00.43DjaneBut don't try to argue that the class is bad, or there is some massive progression jump if you choose the worst thing alive.
22:00.45JunkHeadbasically...
22:00.55JunkHeadmy thinking was frostbolts slowing down mobs would help alot.
22:01.03DjaneThat's like saying cakes are bad because your cheesecak exploded.
22:01.05JunkHeadthen at like...81 i gave arcane another shot
22:01.09AmarandeJunk: in my case, it was feeling cosy and secure because of Ice Barrier
22:01.10JunkHeadand laughed
22:01.14DjaneJunkHead, I know right?
22:01.17JunkHeadi was like... wtf
22:01.22Amarandethen getting shredded because of the huge ramp up in mob DPS
22:01.23JunkHeadbut i had been arcane before
22:01.24DjaneArcane broken at level 80-82
22:01.29JunkHeadHell i raided as arcane in tbc
22:01.31DjaneJunkHead, they BROKE arcane in 4.0
22:01.44Djanethe dps patch let you do 35k dps in epics
22:01.49JunkHeadbut hadn't really cared in wotlk about my dps. just kindashot stuff.
22:01.51DjaneI think I did 80k on Deathwhisper
22:01.57DjaneIn wrath
22:02.05*** join/#wowhead g0urra (~g0urra@unaffiliated/gourra)
22:02.06DjaneArcane blast X a million
22:02.23Djaneand once you're in cata greens, you're more geared than the best raiders
22:02.26JunkHeadsince this 5.0 patch... i haven't playe dmuch
22:02.28DjaneAnd then YOU do 80k
22:02.41JunkHeadthe only 2 characters i've messed with are my warrior and shaman
22:02.46Stormscapea level 81 mage will do more DPS than a level 85 mage in full 410 gear
22:02.47JunkHeadmainly my warrior, and only on old content
22:02.47StormscapeFACT.
22:02.53Amarandebtw, has arcane suffered a huge power hit since 5.0 due to the mana changes?
22:02.59Stormscapelolno
22:03.03StormscapeI have infinite mana
22:03.05Stormscapeit's amazing
22:03.16AmarandeI've read that one of the chief reasons that Arcane was so powerful in raiding in late Cata was because of the mana pools breaking the balance of mastery out of hand
22:03.19*** join/#wowhead limbero_ (~limbero@unaffiliated/limbero)
22:03.19JunkHeadi like my warrior still though. dont know what his dps is... but it feels fine.
22:03.21Stormscapethe only way I can spend mana is if i chain cast Arcane Blast
22:03.23Amarandebut now that mana pools are fixed ...
22:03.27Djanelolno
22:03.33Stormscapeotherwise it won't go below 90%
22:03.33DjaneThey won't be fixed until people hit 90
22:03.40Djaneand costs balance out
22:03.47DjaneRight nwo you have all the positives and none of the negatives.
22:03.47JunkHeadi cant wait until lvl 90 though so I can do BT by myself.
22:03.52AmarandeDjane: I mean fixed as in every mage of X level has the same amount of mana
22:04.06Stormscapeplaying arcane properly (ABx6, Barrage, missiles if you want)
22:04.10Stormscapeyou cannot spend your mana
22:04.12Amarandethe reason Arcane got so powerful in DS was because of the swollen mana pools of late expansion where you have so much extra Intellect compared to early on
22:04.13Stormscapefaster than it regen
22:04.24Amarandeand the interaction between that and arcane mastery
22:04.27DjaneAmarande, the reason why arcane is powerful is because arcane is good.
22:04.35DjaneArcane was ALWAYS the best dps spec in Cata
22:04.40DjaneIt did more damage in every tier
22:04.42StormscapeMy arcane mage regens mana at 2400 per second
22:04.45StormscapeI cannot outspend that
22:04.46Djaneon average
22:04.52DjaneBut fire had a higher top potential
22:04.52Amarandehowever, now there are no more oversized mana pools, because mana doesn't scale with intellect anymore
22:04.56Amarandethat's what I mean by "mana pools are fixed"
22:05.09Amarandewell, you can still increase it with the ember meta gem, but that seems to be the only thing that affects it now gear-wise
22:05.09Stormscapearcane is still stupidly powerful
22:05.12Stormscapeif not more powerful
22:05.15DjaneMore so.
22:05.16DjaneYes.
22:05.28Stormscapeinfinite mana, don't ever need to evocate
22:05.32Stormscapehell I don't even mana gem
22:05.34AmarandeI actually still use an Ember meta gem atm instead of the increased crit one mages "should" use, but I have a pretty practical reason for doing so heh
22:05.50Djaneyou're bad?
22:06.03AmarandeI barely ever used my mana gems either ... they always seemed not to really give enough mana to be worth the trouble
22:06.06Djanewhat possible good reason is there for using the ember meta gem?
22:06.11DjaneOkay. Right.
22:06.14AmarandeDjane: when you're a recent 85 and don't have enough gem slots
22:06.26DjaneBut....but what.
22:06.32Amarandeyou need three additional non-cogwheel slots for the increased crit one, you only need two for ember
22:06.33Djaneit costs less than 100g to do...
22:06.45DjaneHow can you not have gem slots? They're in EVERYTHING.
22:06.50DjaneMy belt ALONE powers my meta.
22:06.54DjaneI don't even.
22:06.55Stormscapemana gems were fucking amazing until 5.0 came out
22:06.58DjaneStormscape, yup
22:07.09Amarandeactually, atm the only slots I have gem sockets in are my helm and belt
22:07.09Stormscapethen 5.0 came out and gave me infinite mana
22:07.11Djaneespecially with the sp boost on use.
22:07.13Stormscapeand suddenly I don't need them anymore
22:07.21DjaneAmarande, how many gem sockets do you have?
22:07.24Amarandethe helm is meta + cogwheels, the belt only had one gem slot natively, upgraded to two with the belt buckle
22:07.28DjaneRight
22:07.29Djaneso that's 3
22:07.35Stormscapethat can power a meta
22:07.48Djane4, actually, but you only need 3.
22:07.53DjaneSince the cog works too, iirc.
22:08.04AmarandeCogwheel gems are colourless, actually
22:08.10DjanePrismatic, you mean.
22:08.26Djaneand also no they're not.
22:08.37AmarandeActually, colourless. I expected the cogwheel gems to contribute the colours that their stats normally do, but they had no effect whatsoever on qualifying for the meta
22:09.12Amarande(moreover, when it comes to ember vs. the other one, no cogwheels provide red-attuned stats)
22:09.29DjaneOkay, fair enough. They've changed that since last I looked but that was in the cata beta
22:09.35Djanebut how do you only have 3 gem slots?
22:09.49DjaneLike, in the time having this conversation I could have had dungeons enough for 5 sockets, easy.
22:10.29Amarandehttp://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/ysera/Kiruna/simple
22:11.02DjaneYes?
22:12.27Amarandenote the small number of gem slots, and that's even with a few epics.
22:13.02Djaneshrugs a little
22:13.22Djaneso get more.
22:13.44Amarandeyeah, I'm presently thinking between getting more or whether I should save my gold for MoP
22:14.36AmarandeI think I might give Arcane a shot, though ,especially now that we can get Ice Barrier with Arcane
22:18.00StormscapeJust don't spec PoM, Scorch is way more useful for PvE
22:19.19Stormscapewow, Glyph of Evocation will be amazing with Rune of Power
22:19.24Stormscape1% of HP per second while in the Rune

22:27.43AmarandeStorm: I predict presently that there will be a massive increase in the number of mobility fights in MoP :)
22:27.59Amarandethat's the Rune's weakness, you need to be able to stand still for its full duration to get the full benefit
22:31.14StormscapeNot really
22:31.20Stormscape6 second CD, can have 2 up at once
