Bandiz 1 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 Implement the summoning functionality for meeting stones. Previously i saw some threads on the forum about this, but i can't find them now, so i do not know if this suggestion was accepted or denied. I know that meeting stones didn't work on 1.12.1 like this, but i think blizzard always intended for them to work this way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zorak 1 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) I am for this implementation too. The stuggle of going on foot across two continents is horrible, especially for <40L characters, where they are slow without a mount and they do not have gryphon masters unlocked (seriously, try to do shadowfang keep as alliance, you will spend at least 20m on the way, and if you will have the idea of going through shortcut via Durotar Zeppelins, count with another 20m being reskilled.... I know about your intention to have vanilla as it was back days, but it doesn't mean, it is always a good decision for gameplay. ... and now I do not speak only this one, but other mechanisms which were mentioned here and refused many times ... (GB - doable via commands, dual talents - doable via commands (yes, we tried) and so on and so on ...) Edited January 19, 2017 by Zorak 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taladril 43 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 They aren't summoning stones in vanilla. They should stay as a group finder only at best. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zorak 1 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 wish, that there was a vanilla server with better team thinking and high population. There are servers, which makes improvements. sadly, they do not have the core needed for overall quality and that for better population ... till then ... well ... there always will be topics like that, you will have to count with that ... I think that listening to community is crucial for project survival ... I have met several projects, (and not only WoW projects), which were awesome by its thoughts, but over the ego and the way, how the owners asserted only and only their opinions, ended very quickly. Not telling this fate it seems to be happening here, but in general, well, who knows. As you can see, community, or at least part of it WANTS theese changes. They are minor changes, nothing that would really affect the gameplay. The truth is, that Vanilla was in many many many ways imperfect. And second truth is, that later expansions are kind of wierd about setting, and "too much OP" in many cases. But the improvements in gameplay, they are really at their place. So in my opinion? The best would be the old vanilla, with not oversized world, but with the gameplay features, that were so much popular ... Speaking of Meeting stones, speaking of Dual talents, Speaking of such things as low level quest filters (but in this case, I think that even with client modifications it is not doabe) , but speaking of guild bank, and such features .... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shayss 43 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 Piss off zorak. If you want these dumb features then go play retail. Also to the OP, read the post at the top of the suggestion thread. You know ... the one that says big and in bold caps "BEFORE POSTING A SUGGESTION, READ ME!" 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheAura 2 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 Blizzard did intend for them to be used as summoning stones, eventually..... in tbc. Maybe you'd prefer to play on a tbc server? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asherdoom 5 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 why not implement character housing then? the zones were created by blizzard yet not released in retail vanilla. seriously... go retail instead of crying for a summon to make a dungeon. in this game you earn the thins thydont fall from the sky. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
killerduki 54 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 It was working properly and 100% blizzlike in Elysium before server Merge , after Nost core it was disabled because in Nost was bugged. /Kind regards Killerduki 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zosyn 8 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 To hell with gathering professions to afford my mount. I'm rolling warlock and selling summons 25s per person. Summoning is already a feature available in the game. OP is not asking for game-altering mechanics. He's simply asking for a quality of life improvement. Instead of spending 1 hour forming the grp + translocating to the dungeon, you can cut down this process by 40 minutes. 40 minutes may be enough time for this same group to run the dungeon again one more time. How is this feature so bad and frowned upon! People that say "you earn your rewards" true. You earn them by beating the game mechanics, and outrolling other players. Why add addition 1 hour of do-nothing to earning this. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taladril 43 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) I'm sorry but no flight path from anywhere on either continent is 40 minutes. Lets be real. The savings is 10-15 minutes at best. Edited January 20, 2017 by taladril 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gotmilk0112 10 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 Gotta love how any time anyone suggests the slightest QoL improvement, everyone freaks out and jumps to extremes and cries "SLIPPERY SLOPE! GARRISONS! FREE EPICS!!" I mean I don't agree with OP, but still. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knife 2 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 the "lack" of summoning stones is stopping lazy cucks who go afk 5 times during a dungeon run because "dog ate their keyboard" from actually ever reaching the dungeon... so adding these is lowering the "QoL" for some of us thanks... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toniplavna 20 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 I wanted to ask, they added stones i vanilla but they have no purpose? I know that they added in tbc summoning like warlock gate but why they added it in vanilla with no purpose? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BogyOne 2 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 I wouldn't mind introducing meeting stones only for instances otherwise unavailable for specific faction, namely RFC for Alliance players and Stockades for Horde. Find the group, walk to the other continent (hehe), click stone and get ported. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
