Badges of Justice   I apologize if this has been addressed before. I’m looking for some sort of finality to this issue. Is the plan to release the Badges of Justice (level 70 badges) from their soulbound status, allowing them to be traded or listed on the Auction House? Are they to be rolled into the token tab, retaining their soulbound status?   It’d be nice if we were able to use some of the badges on current mains to purchase gear for our Death Knights upon leveling to 70. Since a new “badge” is going to be implemented for level 80, I don’t think this would do much to break the gearing system.   Death Knights will, for the most part, be the primary characters bound by the green quest rewards. Unless there would be some kind of negative economic impact, it doesn’t seem unreasonable to let them acquire a few pieces of gear to aid in the leveling process. Of course, soloing 70 heroics as a money making scheme could turn into a problem, but turning off badge drops in those instances could be a way around that, though that could ultimately be bad since that would send prices on the badges through the roof since they’d be permanently

Queue groups for LFG by default   no, no, no and please no…   I have 3 problems with this:   1) It assumes I’m starting a group for an instance. Which, to be honest, is far from always the case. Grouping for trading, grouping for group quests, etc. are very common   2) It would require me to manually take myself OUT of the LFG every time I decided to just group, say with my wife’s character. Also, if I group with a low level alt of one of my friends, whose level would it pick… mine, theirs, or an average?   3) It assumes you’re in the zone you’re looking for the instance of. Even on the beta, I occasionally start Nexus groups, but I’m done in BT and questing in Dragonblight… what if I don’t want to do Azjol-nerub, but want to do Nexus? I’ll automatically be entered in for A-N even though I’m not at all interested in it…   Just overall, I think this’d cause more problems than it’d solve.

Mages and Priest with Levitate    This is a very class specific thing but since it involves two classes, I’m hoping that I can get some good feedback here.   Paying some more homage to Warcraft 3, Priests and Mages both levitate where ever they go.   Mages and Priests both have had complaints in the past how they are supposed to be casters primarily focused on feats of the mind yet they look like a ripped Jay Cutler with their shirts off. Although I know the models of them aren’t going to be changing any time soon, how about doing something to start adding to this premise.   What I’d like to suggest is this: when Mages and Priests have gained so much power and so much knowledge that the power surges through them and simply forces them to levitate where ever they go.   Basically, in terms of abilities, what I a suggesting is at level 80, they get a new ranks of levitate that are simply always on. Said ability would allow them both to walk for a duration over water without falling in but will always allow them a safe fall.   Changing a few animations to make them do something of a “mid air” blast would also be pretty cool.   This is

Around Azeroth: Work in progress   Under construction? After a day of restarts, patches, downtime and add-on chaos, I think we can all sympathize with this sign. (Except for me, because I spent the day playing Oblivion and then running up a truly horrendous bar tab. I still haven’t downloaded 3.0.2.) Touchwood and friends snapped this screenshot of the Forbidden Zone in Zul’Aman prior to the Burning Crusade release. Will anything ever be as cool as paladin Tier 2? I don’t think so. Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We’d love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing  with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next! Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing — use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards.

 Earn 5 fishing achievements today   The act of fishing, particularly if one does not find it relaxing, can seem frustrating and inspire impatience within the angler. It might surprise you then to learn that, with a little effort, you could earn five fishing achievements by the end of today, without worrying about rare drops. Itinerary: ·         “25 Fish“: Catch 25 fish. If you have done this since patch 3.0.2 went live, then your next goal will be 50, and so on. ·         “The Old Gnome and the Sea“: Successfully fish from a school/pool. This will have to be a pool of fish, not wreckage or water motes. ·         “The Scavenger“: Fish one item up from each of the five wreckage schools to be discussed in this article. If this cannot be completed due to the inability to achieve a working 305 fishing skill, then you will be completing the achievement “50 Fish.” ·         “Outland Angler“: You must fish up one fish from each pool to be discussed in this article. If this cannot be completed due to low skill, you will be completing an achievement such as “Journeyman

Quest item inventory bag I don’t know; i think the current bags/growing quantity are fine – if you have bags for profession items, arrow/ammo bags, and recently, pet/mounts/tokens have been taken away from using bag space, what’s really left over? Not much.   And I’m saying this as someone who has 5.5 sets of gear. I mean, be honest, you don’t carry all 5 sets around with you while raiding or you’d have no room for consumables. I have 3 Primal Mooncloth bags + 1 Gigantique; even with the extra 6 slots from having 4 gigantiques, i could never carry that much around, no matter how much i wanted to.   You also don’t carry the gear around while questing, because you simply don’t use the resist and/or all (for druids anyway) 4 dps/caster/tank/heal sets. Even when you do pull one set out or another, it’s nothing to just go to Shattrath or Dalaran and pull it out of the bank real quick.   I don’t know, i think it’s fine. We have so many bag options right now; i think it’s unnecessary for quest items to be separate. Plus, there’re vendors at practically every single town/camp/etc you come by, it’s

New Mount and Vanity Pet Storage    or a wardrobe closet, like the key ring… for ‘other’ wearable items… tabards, holiday clothes, etc.   And totally love the pet/mount thing… i have pet issues… i find strays, they follow me home, i can’t kick them out!   I’d like to expand on the wardrobe thing.   I have a female blood elf priest who, in the course of leveling to 70, acquired a variety of different outfits. Most of these are drops or quest rewards, so are not easily replaceable.   I have a lot of these things taking up bank space, but the stats are obsolete so I don’t use them anymore (like the dress I have from Zul’Furrak).   I like having all the outfits for fun and role-play purposes. But I do hate that they take up so much room.   As another vanity addition, I’d like the ability to take an item – for example, my Zul’Furrak dress – and turn it into a “vanity item”. This would strip it of all its stats and abilities, leaving it as a purely cosmetic item, but I could then store it for free along with my other cosmetic items.   Is this possible? If not in a

 Caption This! A month until the election, and over a month until Wrath … what can we do to pass the time, other than play Oblivion yet again? How about a Caption This! contest? The last contest, featuring the running of the zombies, was won in a landslide by Roahne, with “Red rover, red rover, send — OH MY GOD!” Sladedarkonis won the runner-up prize with “Jeez, multi-boxing has gotten really out of hand.” Here’s how the story goes: I post a picture during Tuesday maintenance. You write a humorous caption for this picture by Friday, October 10 at 11:59 PM EST. It could be a funny description of the situation or a quote that you imagine the characters in the screenshot saying. Examples of previous winners can be found here, here and here. Leave your captions in a comment on this post, and keep it clean — if Blizzard would warn you for saying it in-game, don’t enter it in the contest. During the weekend, I e-mail the post to our list, members of the WoW Insider team respond with their favorites, and ten (or so) of those favorites will be chosen for the final vote. On Tuesday morning, we put the top choices up for a public vote

BlizzCon mount not usable until after BlizzCon Another quick note here, which I’m posting because the team at BlizzCon is at the Lost Bar right now (I make absolutely no promises as to the sobriety of anyone involved); we’ve found out that the polar bear mount plus attached flag-bearing murloc given to all BlizzCon attendees and DirecTV subscribers isn’t actually going to be usable until after the convention ends. I’ve just confirmed this with a friend of mine at the con who’s logged into the game from his hotel’s wireless as well, so this answers a few questions we’ve gotten about where are on earth all the mounts are with so many people attending BlizzCon or how to get them working ingame. So if you’re headed back to your home or hotel and you’ve been hoping to get your mount (or, like me, you’ve just been waiting to see it), hang tight for a few days. With BlizzCon ending late Saturday, hopefully we’ll see them active in the following week.

As I’ve traveled through Northrend I’ve took noticed that all NPC miners that have come in contact with Saronite went completely insane. Howling Fjord – Explorerer’s league Ice crown – enslaved miners I say miners should have a hidden track record sort of like the achievements that keep track of how much saronite we have gathered. Slowly strang whispers would enter their minds and start seeing things that other can’t. I hope for a content patch to continue this idea and they are allowed to pick up a quest that involved yog-saron but be allowed to share it with other people who aren’t miners.. Whats the best way to spread a virus; by means of oral contact ~.^!!

Alchemy is ‘ok’, but i must give feedback on potions/elixirs. i was able to do the discovery thing 5 times last night due to the timer resetting when i logged out, but after getting all the potions/elixirs, i am sad to say that i now have tons and tons of tiger lily and Deadknettle but no potions/elixir that i really would want to make from them (I am holy). Basically there is going to be surplus of these herbs with nothing for healers to make out of them (and lets face it, healers are the prime carriers of alchemy right now for mana potions and the stones). Elxir of Lightning Speed: Uses deadknettle but you cannot mass produce it due to it using a crystalline life. Haste stinks right now for most healing classes with the removal of downranked heals. Elixir of Accuracy: Uses tigerlily, but hit rating does nothing for a healer. Elixir of Expertise: Uses tigerlily, but expertise does nothing for a healer. Mighty Thoughts: The only one that uses deadknettle. Still how is this better than: Draenic Wisdom for priests and druids? Sure they stack because one is battle and one is Guardian, but why not make another guardian elixir paladins/shamans can use that doesn’t

Preserved Food Cooking Recip    Well, the preserved food would be used basically just like any other well fed buff, it’d just be that instead of a regular well fed buff you’d get one that would last through death. So it wouldn’t add any new type of buff really. By putting a cooldown on it and making it soulbound, it prevents people from overusing it or making piles to sell to other people. It would have no balancing issues, just an impact on cost of well fed foods. If cooking were a primary profession, I would think that it’d be a problem to incentivize people to level it, but since it’s a secondary profession, everyone can get it anyhow, so I don’t see it as a problem. Pretty much everyone levels first aid and nobody considers that an unreasonable thing. The preserved food buffs wouldn’t be any better than regular food buffs, they just wouldn’t last through death, so it would really just be a financial incentive if anything to level cooking. Already the new high end cooking recipes require northern spices, which can only be optained from doing cooking dailies, so getting cooked foods from others will probably go up in price
