And thus, my plan to put all my bank alts on my second account backfires. =(

Glad to see the macro performance increase made it in, though.

Questions? Answers.

The orc shoulder thing already has a blue post saying its being looked into as a bug. I wish my shaman T4 shoulders were that small, they look terrible on Tauren.

Unless I totally missed the change in a prior micropatch, Merciless Gladiators Shoulders are now (or appear to be) 250 AP less than before.

As stated before, any mail going between characters on the same account is now instant, however, mail containing just gold going between characters on separate accounts now takes an hour, previously this was an instant transaction.

Did Shartuul's Transporter get fixed? Have had a darkrune burning a hole in my pocket for about a week now.

Have you ever tried simply turning off the TV, sitting down with your children, and hitting them?

They're 1250 points now? If so, I feel gypped because I bought mine the minutes before the servers went down this morning. =(

Edit: Just checked the vendor on my server, they're still 1500.

What was broken about it? I've done the event, as have a few guildmates of mine, successfully several times in the past week.

That seems sort of ass backwards. Almost like they don't want folks having second accounts for conducting business.

Still good change though, means I can move my storage alt to the same account as myself and put the AH mule on the other account so I can watch it during raids.

They DON'T.

Most normal wow transactions where both parties are the same person happen inside of the same account, while most internal gold transactions (ie. between the farmer and the storage person) are done across separate accounts. The change makes perfect sense, it doesn't make anything harder except loaning someone money, but that was the intended effect anyway.

Any macro that uses #show or its variations shows the "?" icon, not the icon (and cooldown) of the associated item or spell. This blue post says it won't be fixed until 2.2, either.

I think this can be fixed by re-creating your macros. I just changed my old macros from static icons to the ? icon and using #show today, they're all working as they should be.

I think he meant 250 less attack power. Or that's how I read it.

This will make it significantly harder for gold farmers to launder.

Couldn't you just attach some worthless item to the mail? And it'd be instant again?

Edit: Sorry misread the post.

No because it is still to a seperate account.

To summarise, all mail to your own account is instant. Mail to another account with no attachments is instant. All mail to another account that has attached gold or items takes an hour.

The animation on blast wave (specifically the radial fire effect - the orange dust/smoke effect seems to fit to the larger original animation) is now smaller, and it bothers me greatly .

I first read it as attack power too, but then I realized there aren't any shoulders with 250 AP in the game.
