It's kind of gay everyone is doing arena FOR NO REASON so on my server we have hour long AV queues and like 20 minute AB/WSG.

I'd rather mess around in Arenas than run around IF on my mount, waiting for queues.

Arena is a better test of PvP skill (such as it is), than BG's where you can go AFK and still come out with some honour and a mark. The countdown is consistent with the other BG's and its quite nice that it has a "buff up" period  where you don't spend mana.

One piece of advice - don't go 5v5 with a teams of 4 druids and a warlock :P, also don't use tree form unless you want to check out how the spectator mode works very early!

edit: also, <3 patchdays

Also - cross continent ganking. That must have wierded them out.

Do you still get bonus honor for winning a BG or do you just get honor points from the random HKs you get?

BC intro video. Quite awesome!

Oh man fucking epic, let's get going on getting that shit for download Blizz!

Also polymoprh shot = awesome

Wow, that's an awesome fuckin intro.

the new Caverns of Time are pretty awesome. You could get inside them before of course although you might get a SLAP ON THE WRIST, but its much more interesting now they've actually put stuff in it.


Plus, while I don't need to titan on Broodlord anymore, I figured with the new Vitality talent I'd milk it for all its got..

Yeah, I'm going for the Axe, I kind of like it, and I don't feel like taking a 5% crit loss (too big imo). Plus, every stupid fucker goes for the sword because its LOL BIG AND SHINY. I was considering the Mace since Mace Spec is basically OVERPOWERED now, with a 30% proc rate or higher, but its so ugly.

Also, I'm using the ZG revered chest, nothing better has dropped, and if it has I haven't been there/won it. After I get the weapon I plan on getting the chest, then legs, and if theres time the swiftblade for tanking.

I am definitely getting the one-handed grand marshal mace because it's better than my current two-handed weapon and I want to run around murdering people with what appears to be a child's toy

Also, did they take away the diminishing returns on the warrior mace specialization stun effect? I've heard something about that, but it sounds too good to be true!

No, they didn't remove diminishing returns, but charge/intercept are seperate from the mace stun proc, and then the TuF/earthshaker procs are seperate from that. But I've been in fights where I get stunned 4 times or whateven then I start seeing IMMUNES pop up in my SCT.

Fights are basically...

Charge stun, mortal strike, auto attack, mace stun, whirlwind, mace stun, auto attack, TuF proc, auto attack, mortal strike, mace stun.

Its fucking stupid.

I believe they're hotnerfing the mace spec so I'd stick with the axe if I were you.
