Patch News: Horde Crew

With such a long maintenance day, I did’nt really get to anything until Wednesday. It was kind of a mess Tuesday night. Really awful latency, 5fps, hard to do anything at all, lol. Thankfully, things sorted themselves out and the next day saw some frantic action.

It’s Here!

Aygaren was pre-studied, so easy enough to set-up and take for a test drive. He did really well under his new talent system. 🙂

Dufit was partially ready, went through part of the choices on the fly just guessing what looked good. As a shadow priest, he is in great shape! So good, he made his first venture into Tol Barad, and the team won! lol, he went from a miserable 6 honor points that morning to just over 600 for one battle. AND! No more mana issues! YAY 😛

One tough Shadow Priest!

The downside: the fire mage and the shaman are struggleing atm. They’ll need a lot of love and luck to bounce back. Nokila, the baby warlock, hasn’t been out and about yet so she’s kind of up in the air. Olmer (BM hunter) lost his stat stick staff now 😦 , but seems to being doing well enough with the changes.

Some other quick notations I’ve found. Guild XP, and personal xp with the guild.

Big numbers 🙂

Both have been buffed up, so it seems. Instead of the personal 1-6 xp points for finishing quests, the average now is around 160xp! And the guild got some whopping 60,000xp ! Guild levels should go much quicker now.

Archaeology: I remember the old days of it back when, what a grind it was. Things got better in Cata, thankfully. But Now? Aygaren did a bit to check it out. His experience: Six (6) digs at each site!!! The fragment counts for each dig site ran 40 – 45. Now then, Aygaren was already capped out with his Archy, so I’ve still got to check it out on Thdoria. She’s been really lazy with it up ’til now so her level is significantly lower.

I love the new quest panes. If the npc has several quests available, it keeps opening itself each time you accept one. No more constant clicking the poor NPC’s. 🙂  Then there’s the new AoE looting. HAPPY DAYS! Along with auto-loot, what a time saver.

I’ll leave you with a few screenies now. I’m sure you’re just as busy and anxious to explore all the new stuffs this patch has gifted us with. Feel free to share some of your discoveries in the comments.

Around Org:

Ay just loves the colors of this mount.

Panda’s have landed in Org!

Got to love their ride!

And a look ahead…..

Oh! Are we going to be busy, busy and busy. 😀

*found that one playing around with my world map buttons!!

It’s been an exciting two days my friends. We, the Horde Crew, hope you’re having a great time of it as well.
