"New WoW Patch"

Just for US at the moment, same as 1.03 was for a couple of days.
Guess ours will arrive in next couple of days or so.
Blizzard Uploader or, after the snailpace of last time, fileplanet info on what this one will do - honour system etc

That tends to happen to me a lot, I'll come across one or two in a contested area. 9/10 we'll wave at each other and chat in languages neither can understand before running off to our own quests.
Sometimes I'll get attacked but, oddly, only when there seems to be more than 3 together.
*shrugs*
It's PvP and you expect it. Although there have been a couple of times when I've been attacked by lv?? players who fell me in one swipe, which is a bit rubbish. Today I started attacing a lv14 Orc Shamen before realising that, at 31, I'm way stronger. So I stopped and apologised, because I dont like it done to me.

A level 32 or something killed Cycloon today (because he's rubbish) so I killed him in return.

Then we went to kill some Syndicate people, when he died (again) whilst running around in a circle like a headless chicken.

But oddly enough, he didn't stop going around in a circle when he died. It was quite funny at the time.

(It's fun to open those up as new tabs in Firefox and make a little animation)

I like waving to the Horde.
I always dance with them.

I started attacking an Undead the other day... then stopped and helped them kill orcs instead... as we both needed to for some reason.

Oh yeah Grix? OH YEAH? I didn't die once this evening. In Gnomeregan. So there.

Who now has a satellite dish on their head? ME?

Froots might have a picture..

Cleared Gnome, got loaded, reached 150 tailoring, now need to go to Darnassus to get the super advanced skills.

Oh, and I'm obsessed with the game.

Hurrah for the honour system, but a bit wierd that it only seems to reward you rather than punish as well, seems a bit one sided. But Blizzard are keeping an eye on it, and taking note of what people think so any problems it may have should hopefully be resolved, eventually.

I'm trying to get ready for the inevatable onslaught of PvP battles, I just bought loads of new patterns for my leratherworking off of the AH so can now make myself an (almost) full set of scorpid mail armour, good armour rating and good Agility (as hunters tend to proffer agility bonuses, and mine is at the moment, pretty darn weak.) I shall also make some armour for rogue who's nearly level 10.

Seems a bit like PGR2, where you always got points even if you came last. Which actually is hugely beneficial in terms of getting decent players over any other Live game.....but at the same time, if you don't get punished for killing a really low level, what's the point? Then again, it's PvP and that's how it is.

Bla bla etc

[URL]http://www.wow-europe.com/en/pvp/rewards-armor.html[/URL] a list of Honour system rewards. Crikey, looks like I'm going to have to do allot of killing to get me that armour set

Nice. I want a mount. That is all.

Trouble is, won't this encourage MORE random killings, when some of the time you can just get away with waving? I know it's PvP, but in places like Stranglethorn, you're half way through a quest and some clever moron comes along and kills you - it's hard to avoid Horde at times like that.

EDIT; Holy Jesus, that stuff is quality.


hmmm...

Level 60's get honour from killing level 48's, so you can expect a huge increase in ganking.

Personally I'm not that bothered, there's no way I'd ever play enough to reach the top 5 ranks and thats where all the decent stuff is. I'm just going to carry on as normal.

There was a MASSIVE raid on Stormwind tonight

The Trade District was packed, excellent stuff.
I have screenshots but can't be bothered posting them just now.
