I didn't saw this anywhere, but... the patch happened yesterday on EU realms, and since then Skald was heavily bugged: The Fire Elementals are respawning in less than 10 seconds. Nearly nobody noticed, but I made like 15 primal fire in a few hours, with a sub-par spec.

To give you an idea, I was three-shooting the elementals and couldn't kill more than two of them, the first respawned by the time I destroyed the second. I almost didn't have the time to loot...

The less-than-10-seconds is actually (for Blizzard) instantaneous. Kill the mob, it instantly repops somewhere it its patrol path.

We found a nice little spot where there were 3 within shooting range, and myself, a destro lock, a shadow priest, and a fury warrior basically farmed for an hour ... getting 39 primals. THAT is what farming should be. It was fun. We never stopped killing for the entire time, and there was never less than 15 corpses on the ground. It's obviously unintended, but exploit early, exploit often, I guess.

Someone above mentioned Supremus bugging out -- we had a similar thing happen on Tuesday when we killed him. We killed him during a kite phase, and when he hit 1% and charged a paladin, every single person in the raid locked. Screen locked, no movement, no action possible ... just sat there. After about 30 seconds, a couple of people recovered movement, and were able to confirm that dots had killed him (and not wiped the raid, thankfully), and then about 30 seconds later most of the raid recovered in a lovely lurchy lag-filled moment. 9 people went offline.

No clue what was causing it. We do *not* have universal acceptance of DBM or BigWigs; everyone who locked was not running one or both. It just seemed to be something to do with him.

In "continuing the fun" news, we wiped on Shade of Akama because we forgot the fundamental rule: "Blizzard hates paladins" (prot paladin couldn't hold threat on the Defenders, even though Omen showed him pumping out the threat at crazy rates). Post-wipe, he was bugged as described above. The first pull was "normal", in that there were 6 functional channelers, and adds spawned, and all that jazz. It was a fun 35 second kill without channelers. Dumb, but fun.

Appologies is this has been mentioned elsewhere (I did a text-search on every page of this thread, and read most of it), but we found last night that:

Pathing for intercept to Al'ar (up the ramps after a Quill) is broken, causing warriors to run back down the ramp.

We killed Al'ar on Tuesday, and did not observe any problems. Were you attempting to intercept from the ground? Our warriors run out onto the ramp and take a couple of steps and then start mashing intercept until it goes off. We did notice that you can intervene from the ground to the top if you're in just the right position, but it's too gimmicky to do reliably.

Ahah. I was experiencing the same thing while farming Sirens at Coilskar Point for the new meta design. I'd kill one, and it would respawn practically instantly. I stood in 1 spot killing the same mob a good 20-30 times.
However, it was just before my server went down for the bonus maintenance, and I haven't gone back to check since then. It may be fixed.

Undocumented: Warden in 2.3 has had considerable changes that could potentially invade our privacy. This (imo) would've warranted a new topic but I (as a new member) can't create threads so here's a link to a blog post that delves further into this:
Warden invades our privacy

Can anyone check if this link is safe? It seems an awfully strange username and the link is wardentwothree.blogspot . Sorry if it's not but rather safe than sorry.

Did anyone figure out what this means?

Reverse cooldowns are correctly refreshed when a buff is reapplied by another player.

I don't know if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but I think I figured out why some herbs glow while others do not. If a herb is glowing, you'll only get that particular herb from it. If it is not glowing, it has something else along with the herb, be it Motes of Life or a Fel Lotus. This has held good for me on every herb pick.

EDIT: Ok, scratch that. Just contradicted this by getting only Terocone from a non-glowing herb.

Another unfortunate side-effect to the new AI (trying to get behind the target) is that if you try to send your pet to attack a mob that has its back to a wall, the pet (if it has only melee attacks) will not attack unless the mob is first pulled away from the wall. (Manually selecting a ranged attack instead of /petattack works though.)

You can now wrangle aether rays at 39% life. (Making this daily much easier for Enhance shaman who previously would vaporize the aether ray with a windfury when it was around 19%)

Twin Blades were given a 45 second hidden cooldown.

Sounds now always originate from your character (positional audio) and the option for this was removed from the sound menu. There's a cvar command you can put in the config file to change it back to non positional if you want. SET Sound_ListenerAtCharacter "0"
