EU+US what do you think of the Frag Belt?

[Raosco]

Saw a similar thread earlier on xpoff, but what do you think of the Frag Belt?
I've heard a lot of different opinions. Especially from players missing out on the Northrend Engineering.
Post your opinions below, if you think they should remove it or not, why?

All you had to do was learn Northrend for like 5g. If you literally couldnt do that within the 36 hours it was open then idk man. First thing I did was learn it on all my twinks. Didnt even have to deal with the 21493248234832 gold cobalt bars. Its not like it was "gold" gated.

edit: They are inactive during Arenas and Plebmades so who cares if its active during random pub WSG with levelers.

With you 100% there.

It feels so scummy using them in pugs and now I can only play the 19s I have them on because when someone frags me Im going to be pissed if I cant frag them back

Know the feeling haha, feels so useless rolling new twink now lul

 

[Taofight]

There was a lot of work to do on all my twinks and I did not get to Northrend Engineering on all of them. And I don't even want to play the ones that don't have it. So I hope it being so powerful in 19s will have Blizzard take them all away.

 

[ascoot]

yea, i hope blizz takes inferno robe out (forgot to get it a long time ago), along with screechers, jutebraid, talbar, etc. unlucky/unfair to new twinks. gg blizzard.

 

[Baiktos]

That whole list is literally my shaman haha @ascoot

Haha why not? Already took the pouch away sooo.. Zzzz, they love ruining twinking brackets

Yet another pointless comparison between items designed and intended for low level players and some broken bullshit obtained through a blatant oversight and fixed by blizzard within hours.

Mark my words boys and girls, queues are going to be sererated pretty shortly and this broken shit is going to be a big reason for most of the bitching and complaints that will warrant it. Rocket boots are equally bullshit atm and a priest with them is nigh unkillable.

 

[Pitter]

EDIT: I'm fine with either of them when it's a one sided and awful game, but if it's actually a decent game with twinks on either side it's kind of a joke to pop any of that stuff, pretty much equal to a speed pot or saltwater potion.

Ruining twink brackets?? Need I remind you that they got rid of the horrific stat template system a couple days ago. And your saying they always ruin twinking? if it weren't for blizzard reviving twinking, there wouldnt be people using "Bombs"

Be thankful that you actually get to play against other twinks regardless of bullshit items.

 

[Save]

I don't really think any of the Northrend engi stuff is a big deal, the better team will still win.

nah you can win a game off 1 grenade plenty of better teams lose to consumables/these items

edit: i dont mind them though

 

[Eriwen]

opinion is: fun as hell use as you wish, will be banned in competitive wargames anyway

Question: If you learned Northrend Engi when it was bugged, but didn't level it that day, can you still learn all the recipes later on?

Yes.

 

[DigitalChemyst]

Yes.

Ah yes, I realized I wasn't in Old Dal, which is why the recipes weren't showing up

Queues are already separated. Once your twink hits honor level 50 you'll no longer get games.

Goods just have it.
Bads still use it.

Bringing enchants, trinkets and any other none player controlled proc based bullshit back in bgs was a mistake to start with.

I sometimes use on my mage when we are GY farming, occasionally in mid. However on my pally I’ll be testing this evening if arcane bombs 5 sec silence works. Would be a great combo for killing healers.
