It's fine in-game, though The Champion of The Naaru title comes AFTER people's names. Not really a bug or undocumented change, just a different way from all the other titles. It's probably this new way of having a title that's screwing with the Armory, it hasn't been updated to deal with it.

I've been out of the loop for awhile so it might be my imagination, but I thought this was changed so mobs didn't do this anymore?

What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?

They probably renamed the column for titles in their armory database since the prefix and suffix titles (Hero of the Naruu Gurgthock of the Hero or whatever) are now consolidated in a single title, which is causing the armory to display weirdly. I would imagine they'll fix it up shortly.

If you see a Hex Stick being used you'll understand why they would track that way.

I don't raid anymore, but has anyone (who was not previously using stopcasting) noticed an increase in DPS due to the spell cue system:

Client spell cast requests are now sent to the server even if your player is already casting another spell. This eliminates the need for /stopcasting in macros to compensate for latency.
I'd forgotten about this until half way through (H) SH last night. So I zapped all my macro's and was having a great time not losing out on 95%+ cast sbolts. Again, I don't raid so I have no idea how this will parse out when buffed to the teeth, but would love to get some feedback.

In the same vein, I realized I should probably keep my /stopcasting /soulshatter heh

The Champion of the Naaru titles are fine in game. Having noticed that the armory doesn't show Expertise yet, I'm guessing it needs some sort of upgrade to recognize all the new features added in 2.3.

Also, our other Protection Warrior and I noticed last night that stance dancing is a lot cleaner thanks to the /stopcasting changes.

I remember the pvp hawkstrider being available on the PTR in the early period. Has it been removed or will it be added with s3 together with the rest of the pvp items? I apologise if this has been covered already but wasnt able to find an answer.

If it is truely the same bug as before then it is really easy to replicate. The FIRST person that goes onto akama's stage needs to be stealthed. The chanellers will do their half assed "I saw you" turn towards the stealthed person and stop channeling.

Astromancer bugged for us in a similar way to your BT experiences. Reset her, and she was unattackable.

Can anyone confirm the taunt +hit physical mechanic? If it's working, we had some amazing bad luck yesterday.

There's a bug regarding the heroic daily quest(s) wherein any items you are required to loot to complete the quest (I.E. Nazan's Riding Crop), will not appear if you zone out and reform the group with a new leader. This came on top of a bug where I became saved to a heroic zone without ever killing a boss inside of it. This happened to four other people in my group, and as far as I know, at least one other group that had failed to complete the instance before reforming.

Though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable; I simply am not there.

We had a little problem this morning adding a raid member to our ID so he could loot the map in ZA for the 20 slot bag. Once he entered he got the 30 sec to port message. We went outside and reformed the raid. That fixed that issue. Once he got to the map he was unable to loot it. He logged off and back on and the map was lootable.

OK, I can't believe that nobody has posted this in this 10 page menagerie....


Hunter minimum range decreased from 8 yards to 5 yards...

I've already killed like 54 mages in PvP, who think they are safe at 6-7 yards....

I'm betting resetting shaman talents will be part of the maintenance today for US realms, since they were not very smart about the Shamanistic Focus point and people have 0/41/21 builds, in essence.

It's only in the first fricking post.

'War' is too small a word for what I'm fighting. Like a candle in front of the whole burning Sun. I told you. This is bigger than a war. Now, I am not going to die today. I have other projects, and other options.

You can come with me. I can protect you.

You have the 48 hour auction house listing as an undocumented change, when in the notes it clearly says under User Interface:
The Auction house time periods have been changed. Now items can be put up for sale for 12, 24, or 48 hours. The option to put up items for 8 hours has been removed.

Minor change: Polymorph: Pig was not working for me in a macro. I would venture to guess that Polymorph: Turtle is also disabled. Vanilla Polymorph still worked for me, though.

Thankfully, noticed it before we actually started pulls last night.

From the UI and macro forums

Polymorph issues
The names of the spells have changed. Use the following instead of Polymorph: Pig and Turtle

Polymorph(Rank 1: Pig)

Polymorph(Rank 1: Turtle)

We had a similar thing happen last night as well. A rogue and myself both zoned out to repair while everyone was backtracking to Nalorakk to pick up the quest item that we missed. When we zoned back in, the map wasn't lootable and we had to zone out/back in again before it had a gear icon.

Astromancer worked normally for us last night and we reset her a couple times...apparently patching removes some peoples' ability to run away when wrathed >.<



For the polymorph issues, it appears that they renamed the spells. Try Polymorph(Rank 1: Pig) and Polymorph(Rank 1: Turtle). Our mage that uses a /cast random macro for his polymorphs found it only worked for the normal sheep and would fail if it randomly chose one of the others. After modifying the macro with the new wording it works with all three spells.

Resto shaman are unable to refresh Earthshield on a target that still has any charges left on his current Earthshield, even if the new spell has a higher +Heal being applied to it. The "more powerful spell is active" error pops up if you try.
