It's been 4 years and 2 days since WoW first launched, and Blizzard celebrated their 4th Anniversary in style giving folks who logged on a Feat of Strength Achievement, and an Account bound non combat pet, the "Blizzard Baby Bear". It's a nice touch, I think. If you've been playing since the release, you've given Blizzard $720 bucks (Assuming you paid $15/month, and not some other deal). With that in mind...do you feel you've gotten your money's worth out of Blizzard? I haven't given them $720 personally, but I have given them pretty close to that amount. Looking back and thinking about it...I've gotten my money's worth.
Ghostcrawler addresses that "AoE fun times" with a short post detailing a couple changes to Shaman, Druids ,and Rogues.
With the xpack has come a bunch of new materials to harvest. Of course, there are going to be ninja's and the like who wait for someone to clear out a pat and take the node. At worst, they pretend ignorance that you were going for the node, at worst they mock you some and thank you for taking the pat for them before heading off. Is there some way to deal with these kinds of folks? A debuff of some sort is suggested (can't mine/herb for the next 15m?) but...how would you apply it. How would it the game know if someone was a ninja or not? Is there some way to 'fix' this, or is it just groan and move on?
Wow is serious business, and this xpack means business. There are a ton of mobs to kill, plagues to spread or defeat, undead everywhere, but there's got to be some time for fun somewhere, right? There are a lot of funny things in this xpack, if you know where to look.
