EVERYONE is creating characters there...guess who is mayority...RPers or PvPers?

The queue to get in is 50 minutes for me! :Q

It sounds interesting...but they can barely handle the naming policies in normal Role playing servers..imagine the Gankfest these new ones will be.

You mean names like "Ilovebuttsecks" and "Myserverisdown" aren't authentic RP names? ;)

Feign death is no longer resisted by players.

THANK YOU! Some say feign is not a viable PvP tactic, but in the middle of a hectic battle, it can save you.


Yep... incredibly useful in places like AV... Now it may actually work in there.

What happens when feign death is resisted? I don't think I have ever resisted it?

They changed the total debuffs from 8 to 16 because people were exploiting.

How? 8 priests were mind visioning the main tank to remove harmful debuffs from BWL.

That and for the bosses in the raid instances you need more then just 8 debuffs. :p

I highly doubt they want to make BWL easier. :p

I'm in a medium sized guild and barely any of us have any epics, although most of us have the regular blue class sets. We've been to MC a few times with other guilds but have only downed Lucifron.

The first ZG boss, the bat priest was really tough. Took us a while to figure out where to position her, but when all looks good you get bats dropping fire bombs on you and she heals herself to half her health. What's the strategy to beat this boss?

It cancels your attacks and you simply stand there. Not fun.

Also, it enables the Hunter to get out of combat, and thus he can drink / eat / lay traps (and use that new sting that puts the enemy to sleep).
