Cataclysm - What Do We Know?

I can do most of the jumps fairly well, but i dislike them since it creates a huge barrier between those who can use them and those who cant, for the reasons Mcbankington stated. It cant be right for 1/50 players to be able to get upto the enemy GY straight from first aid hut or to hide on the horde tunnel roof. I do like some of the jumps, such as standing on the logs midfield or running over saws to gain a little bit of distance etc, but the more arcane and vaguely exploitish ones that allow a path/hiding place that wasnt intended shouldnt be allowed.
 
McBank: i dont think blizzard ever thought of us just get in there and just hit each others up, i think they meant for us to find ways and strategies to stay up and alive.



thus i think the jumps, when at least not all accounted for, were probably placed there for the sole reason to give us some LoS and some way to get rid of others. i really dont think you're supposed to be screwed from the start.

Jumps just complicate things, and aren't intended. Therefor they should be removed. Blizzard just wants us to hop into wsg and go nuts, they don't want us jumping in then saying "alright, I have their entire team on me and I have the flag, I have to take a left go down tunnel, take aright jump up x round around y jump up z run over to w jump up n then run around g then jump up t then jump up y then jump down and cap the flag, if we loose it take a right go ramp, jump then turn quickly to loose their melee off the ledge, as they run back jump down, run and climb up j, then by then hopefully we'll have the flag back or I'm screwed.

Your supposed to be screwed from the start.



Jumps should be removed, Featherfall to get to advantageous high ground should remain... like LM to BS in AB, lol.
 
Jumps are for those that are dedicated. It's not like it's a discontinued or grandfathered skill. Most people that find it unfair just never put any effort in learning them. Anyway, Blizzard is open to suggestions, so do post your opinion on their forums.
 
Sorry to say Rayu but i find you an Asslicker of Blizzard stop reporting Exploits to GMS, like you did with that fishing hat (+40 stam,+40 agil).

Would prefer if you stopped posting in my topics, it's never really useful anyway. Also, you make me ashamed of my country. 'Pindakaas' telling me I'm a noob/asslicker, rofl.
 
Agi = 2 AP? so that mean they getting rid of the AP gear? Hope so, since it was a lot of HP to sacrifice to get good AP.

Well, since there revamping Azeroth. If you do all the quests on your current faction, when new expansion is released, and do all the new quests, I believe it'll be possible to obtain Ambassador w/out faction change. No real evidence, just speculating :)



old titles and achieves from original rep, titles, will be placed into another bracket like feats of strength when cata rolls. there will be new achieves for discovery of the new azeroth and quests within.



ambassador is based on the current 4 races of each faction. when cata rolls there will be 5 races for each faction, and more than likely a new ambassador type achieve/title.



IMO, u want the current ambassador title, you better pay $60 for 2 faction swaps now.

5 and 6 races instead of 4 and 5. =]

Other then that, yes that's what I heard too.

btw, with the area change. Does anyone know if the gurubashi arena will still be there in cataclysme?



I'm 90% it will still be there, it may be smashed up, but I'm sure it will still be there. As for jumping, when the entire enemy team is on you, blizzard expects you to die, your supposed to die, they expect you to die, your team expects you to die, you should die. You shouldn't be able to jump up some where because your good at it, look down masturbating at how awesome you are then type /y LOL IM BETTER THEN YOU FUCKERS LOL then pop some speed increase just to piss them off then go cap the flag. (Here's looking at the GY jumps) the only jump I've ever supported was getting on top of the alliance zerker hut. Blizzard does just want us to que, get in and have some fun, not to blow it out of proportion.

Of course, if you try this at higher level brackets, a DK will either say "Yoink!" or "GET OVER HERE" and you'll be dead.

Doesn't really have to do with anything, but yeah thats been true ever since wotlk came out.
 
SPECULATION INC!!!!!



Someone PM me when we start talking about reforging AGM's again. Did a rough calculation



AGMs a perfect paladin will need after reforging assuming human race and assuming 2:1 stat conversion(SPECULATION INC)

+6str

+6str

+12stam

+12stam

+6int

+6int



edit: I guess the thread topic is "what do we know" .......sorry i just can't stop thinking about this

You are actually immune to DG in the hut. Or at least you were when WotLK first came out. Its been awhile since I've played my DK twink.
 
mcbank, you're assuming blizzard didn'T want us to have any strat when going for the opponents flag. but if thats what they wanted, they wouldn't have placed flags to begin with and would have seriously not made such complex levels to play on.



true, blizzard probably didn't think of th ejumps, true there is probably a lot of things they hadn't planned. but if us jumping wasn'T right, it would already have been gone ! the reality is quite simple, blizzard likes the strategies we players have come up with.
 
Don't think Explorer title will change, the land stays roughly thesame, no new area's, just revamped.



And i see a lot posted about new skills, talents, stats, but i didn't see anything yet about the new races.

Don't they have cool new racials or something? Saw in a blizzcon movie, goblins get some kind of charge ability....

Didn't find the others yet tho..
 
Goblin gets a jump for 20 yards (2min cd i believe)

and they also get a turret they can shoot at the enemy (shares CD, no idea how much dmg it does)



The................ehm wolf, forgot the word. WORGEN! They get a 60% sprint for 6 sec or so? 3 min.



I haven't heard anything about any new profesion though.

Goblin mages are gonna be sweet! I wonder if the effect will be a blink like ability (breaking snare/roots/stuns). So basically you can decide to get an extra attack or to jumps. Goblin hunters are going to be even worse!



Worgen Druids are gonna be sick too



Tauren pallies should be able to stun-burst pretty decently if timed right
