It looks like the error codes have received a much needed upgrade. I've gone from 33 to 37. Yay! Or something.

Well, the servers are allegedly back up. However, they seem to have limited concurrency rather severely.

act 3 hell (~halfway), we got a "vampiric molten " pack
(quote) Row: "I refuse"
it was also a running-away type of mob so it pulled many many other packs too

Actually, I find vampiric mortar to be pretty horrific, given how many pets I have out for them to kill  :'(

Zul'Aman

      Zul'Aman is a 10-player, level 70 outdoor instance located in the Ghostlands. Players will be able to confront six new bosses including the Forest Troll Warlord Zul'jin.

hell yeah!!


on a side note:
*Pets will try to get behind their targets when engaging in melee combat.  <- WTF? will i get a bonus to shoot in the back dmg?
*New recipes are available from the Honor Hold, Thrallmar, and Lower City quartermasters to create 24 slot quivers and ammo pouches. <- figures. guess who ain`t exalted with those factions....

I.e. when the hunter engages melee? Sorry, I am quite sleepy still...

Will it require Exalted or Revered? I can't go look at the patch notes right now. Then again, I am not a leatherworker. But like it was said... I don't see this being so useful. I never run out of arrows. Better arrows would be useful.

probably the better quivers will give even more speed bonus, other than that it's no point.

Some interesting changes:

Daily quests have been added targeting a random battleground for that day. Look for Alliance Brigadier Generals and Horde Warbringers near your faction's battlemasters in all major capitals.
Good, good, Row is out of money and doing normal dailies are not an option for him. It will make money grinding more enjoyable for those loving PvP play.

Players will now be able to cast spells for free in the Battleground before it begins.
Players will now be able to cast spells for free for a few seconds after being resurrected by a Spirit Guide in the Battleground.
Yay! No more buffing up and drinking immediately after respawning!

New random Daily Dungeon quests have been added for both the heroic and non-heroic five-person Outland dungeons, as well as for the 5-person Caverns of Time instances. Each day both a single heroic and a single non-heroic dungeon are randomly targeted by these quests. The Consortium quest givers can be located in Shattrath's Lower City
Again, great news for healers and tanks who cannot solo well.

Actually quivers will keep their attack speed 15%  which is a) stupid b)well nothing we can do about.

I don`t mind it but at least 3% more would be nice or even an additional point of dmg.
It`s hard enough as a BM to weave nice series of shoots with 2.03 standart att speed when the trinkets pop it`s just a mess.    How was i able to weave shoots with an 0.47s att speed ever??  >>  seems i`m getting old.

so that basically makes another lw-recipe you'll learn but rarely make since the mag'har quiver is easy to get if you just do the nagrand quest..

When the pet engages meele.
Remember those beasts right after chess in Kara? They have a cleave ability, and Erebus was killed many times by that when I sent him to fight. Now pets will go automatically behind the target to avoid this kind of effects.

They can't give more speed bonus to quivers imo.
Would be really imba among with Serpent's Swiftness in Beast Mastery tree and many ppl whine about that ability as it is already.

That doesn't make sense to me.

Does it only happen with the mobs that have those abilities? Does it happen when someone is tanking the mob aside from the pet? (That's why I asked "when the hunter engages melee?") Immagine soloing a mob, the pet goes behind his back and you hunter nuke it. What does the mob do then? Fight against air?

P.S.: I love your avatar!
