We are way over the 2 weeks now. Any words about this ? Why would we have epic PvP armor pieces in their final form but not the weapons at the moment ? The impact of rare and epic pvp gear is way bigger than the few weapons that should be added in both pvp & pve content, considering the amount of r10 and r12/13 on the server compared to the amount of remaining r14 who haven't left the project yet. I can provide a list of the item IDs that should be added to the ally and the ones for the horde weapon vendor NPCs if it can help...

I wouldn't expect it to be changed right off the bat today. Maintenance is in 24 hours. Announcement this evening and change applied tomorrow would make the most sense.

You are missing the point of fragments being BoP I think. Being able to trade and sell fragments would just result in a lot of guilds and players going for it and undermining each other regardless of faction in order to SELL the fragments at absurd gold / irl cash amounts. Fragments being BoP would also prevent the double looting shenanigans abuse that usually happen on pirate servos and make sure the players getting the fame, glory and mount have looted the shit themselves instead of just buying them off with gold or cash as if this was a gold count contest. For your complete information, the amount of fragments required should be 42 000 to reach neutral, not 18 000. It should not be 500 reputation points for 200 fragments turned in but 200 reputation points for 200 fragments turned in. This is how it worked during retail vanilla. Wherever you read or whoever told you it is 500 rep or 18K fragments is not a reliable 1.9 source and only refers to the period after which blizzard had nerfed the reputation grind to make it more casual friendly.

Fixed it for you :)

You can't kite them anyways normally. They should be resetting at the phasing points which won't be removed since they were initially added to reduce lag for super high population. Also they should reset if you try to kite them away from Dream Bough, Seradane, etc. areas. World bosses (and including mobs like Anachronos, Teremus, etc.) have a super short leash range and will reset currently.

Just ask to officers in horde guilds what think about it. I'm pretty sure every guild going for these bosses on both sides would love more action at every spawn (afaik that content with world pvp is probably the funniest shit we can get right now in game - Emeriss giggled) and properly working abilities/spawns. The fact Azuregos can randomly reset while not even moving and get re-tagged with no hp regen tick for instance is yet another example of what makes this content kinda meh atm. I was working on a bug report regarding its Spell Shield being dispellable while it shouldn't from what I could find too, if anyone wants to take that over (bug reports gotta be remade and posted on the Github now if I understood correctly) as well.

I disagree with you. The information should be public for the entire player base in order to have the maximum amount of ppl providing what they can find about it. It's a shit show 4 spawns out of 5 right now anyways. Having more players/guilds going for them is clearly not a bad thing either.

Regardless of what is currently in the core, it is completely wrong. But thank you for confirming the 2 sets of values which just imply the exact same statements as I wrote in the bug report. 4-7 days is well known from when they got released on Nost and here is just the same with some more bugs and bug fixes. Again, please provide somewhat reliable retail sources concerning what it should be like so this issue can move forward. You are just talking about isolated hotfix maintenances on retail which MIGHT have changed things to bsoses and change respawn timers. Where are the proofs about that ? I have found no sources which would confirm a 4-7 days base re-spawn. I would like to see them though.

I have given up on trying to have world bosses working as intended. The last shit show with X dragon doing Y dragon abilities killed the recent fix they did to re-add abilities to them. Great post. I hope what you describe is what it should look like, although it is just assumptions for what they should be and not sourced at all, so it will probably not make it through or be ignored... Kazzak spawning at 6+ days every week since a month now, sometimes past 7 days. Meanwhile you will find reliable retail sources on thottbot, zam and guides all indicating maximum respawn should be 4-5 days tops. But whatever if ppl still think it should be 4-7 days for every boss when nobody actually ever brought up sources about that. FYI when they re-added abilities to EDs, it wasn't just Feralas which despawned. Hinterlands got killed and while it still had items in it, it despawned exactly same time as the despawn in Feralas. Information I provided in the bug report are exactly what you described : 3-7 for Kazzak and Azu, 4-7 for EDs, which is not blizzlike. End of the debate. Oh and please provide sources going the opposite ways of the ones I put in the bug report at correct behavior instead of stating it's wrong. For now nobody else bothered doing the research. Time to step it up if you claim it's wrong ;) I guess you know better than what is being said in the .pdf guide and 2006 comments sources dating from retail vanilla ?

It was said on discord by Shenna after someone asked about it. HF scrolling up though x) "@Crogge @Shenna when Will this new war effort be pushed out? Shenna - Today at 5:54 PM In 2 days in max."

They have said it will be changed within 2 days earlier today.

Kryll is coming back I can tell you that much. This solution will not solve what actually matters most here. We have no information on what will happen, when, how etc. Which leaves the player base in the dark once more in a period of uncertainties. Waiting game all over again. No feeling of accomplishment for those who actually participated in the event. Watch how the WE will now stall as hard as it never did and discourage even more any kind of turn in / farming initiative.

If all you want is "matchmaking", you're playing the wrong game / expansion. Rated BGs are not gonna be implemented here. There are plenty of more important other things to be worked on which get way higher priority than trying to experiment a rated matchmaking system in this version of the game. Btw nothing prevents you from telling opposite faction to step it up, get a group going and you queue into each other. You usually get good games out of it and it's exactly what are looking for, team vs team, right ? Piece of advice : refrain from using League of Keklords and Casualwatch as comparisons with an emulated 10+ years old mmorpg (yeah, you aren't playing a fps or moba right now in case you didn't notice).

So you want to deny players the ability to queue with more than 2 friends in a mmorpg for team based PvP which worked like that since BGs even existed in the game ? Correct me if I misunderstood. I guess we would still have cat videos at least. You know like that one with the no no no cat ?

Crafting stuff takes a lot of time though. But I guess you haven't noticed it ? x)

I can tell you Coalition is not hoarding anything. I'm personally turning in mats for over 1 000 signets every day. The majority of players who are hoarding mats is the greedy mass thinking getting richer will make them any better at the game or the clueless ones thinking they will need greater firepower in AQ. The rest either gave up farming unrealistic amounts, don't have time for it, raid log and play waiting game or their farming is too meaningful (0.50% / day won't get us far).

The concern is not about AQ being released tomorrow or in 3 weeks. It is about the chosen numbers of War Effort putting its completion at 6+ months, having for consequence consistent and daily population drops since players won't bother farming with these retarded amounts and rather stop playing than tossing stones into water. Get some reading comprehension and situation awareness.

BUMP. Anathema pop is bleeding out. Don't underestimate the snowball effect. React now and fix your war effort nonsense. Take into account the ever decreasing population. The more you wait the faster players will give up the project.

Get real and realize you're bullshitting. You are making the "baseless assertion" (sorry I couldn't help myself quoting you on this) that these guys are gold sellers : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n3g2g_5vTI Just looks and sounds like a group of nerds simply enjoying the world pvp (and roleplay lul) aspects of the game to me. It really doesn't look like they need to pay anyone for anything either. Players willingly take part into pvp on a pvp server you know ? :D

They probably didn't even make it "according to the patch" on purpose you know ? xD

Yep it is probably doable even with the proper buff stacking and encounter being quite different/harder here. Just not with a rogue :P

Hey Theloras, what about getting your facts straight or just improving your reading comprehension a tad bit ? It has been explained here (and you can check on Nost forums) that the least worst version of the weapon (aka usable and good but not overpowered) is with 25% proc rate. That was Nostalrius design choice after a lot of research, digging and discussions. There is no reason to render the weapon entirely useless here (other than satisfying those who don't have the weapon and are mad about it I guess) if the staff actually cares about their design choices (which is the case since a 100% progressive itemization is simply dumb and would detail towards progression on talents and class mechanics as well with all the "muh blizzlike" white-knights). You don't have to spill your rage here that Nost didn't make the choice to buff your T2 Judgement set pieces. You can also stop feeling entitled to hijack every single thread to expose for the 2450th time paladin related bugs that needs fixing or not when it is barely relevant with the actual topic.

You know it's true if you are/were part of any mafia/cartel/club/circlejerk. But yeah, better state assumptions out of dust with literally nothing to back it up like OP rofl. I mean if you really can't live/play (yeah it's just a game btw :P) with it you can always reroll on a server where there is no competition/no pvp. He wrote down the root of the issue himself "average players can't compete", which implies non average players can. AKA there is a player solution to the player "problem". Or you can try this instead I guess : http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/monopoly/images/7/74/World_of_Warcraft_Edition.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150219211121

Stop bullshitting and get a glass of water to soothe all that salt in your mouth. Literally every dedicated crater mafia/cartel/club/circlejerk/whatever member is only there because it's fun in the first place. They play the game mainly for its world pvp aspect and the political shenanigans that controlling a zone like Un'Goro implies. "PAID professionals" is probably the funniest shit I've heard in a while. Have you ever sat in the same TS as one of the crater overlords either on Elysium or Nost/Anathema ? I can tell you they are just enjoying the game way more than you do. The fact they get a lot of gold is merely a side effect. The entire point is to dominate the place to the point where players like you are so butthurt they either step down/give up or have to organize and fight back. Keep in mind Un'goro is the most important and funniest BG in vanilla ;)
