I feel a great disturbance in the force. Like a million powerleveling services all cried out at once and were suddenly silent.

Pre-Purchase: Game is expected to release on or before 12/20/2014

That better be some gross overestimation. Because if this expansion is not out by June, WoW will be a ghost town. I for one will cancel as I won't sit for 9 more months doing the same raid content.

Blueprints can also be acquired through quests, dungeons and faction reputations as well.

Players who reach the level cap of 100 can purchase blueprints that they previously passed on during quests.

Blizzard has announced its intention to conduct an "item squish" with the Warlords of Draenor patch, streamlining item statistics, player and monster health, and ability values. The effects of this were immediately felt upon selecting a character from the preassigned beta templates.

As a level 90 paladin, I sported about 50K health and averaged a much lower amount of damage output than I was accustomed to. However, enemies had also been scaled down, so the average amount of time I spent in combat with each individual monster was relatively the same.

Haha - yeah pretty much. I pre ordered this expansion to level a toon to 90. WoW is pretty boring to me now, but I'll still be playing the expansion like a tool.

A players beef about Garrisons
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/15368408583

I played WoW Today, for 10 minutes.

1). Log on main, grab garrison box, do followers, drop off WOs.
2). Log on Blacksmith, do 2 daily cooldowns, do followers, hit her mine, grab garrison box, drop off WOs.
1). Log on Horde main, do followers, grab box.
2). Log on Horde Blacksmith, do 2 daily cooldowns, do followers, grab garrison box, drop off WOs.

This is exactly the same as what Yesterday was for me too in WoW.

That's what WoW is now... a glorified mobile game.

Trying to get my Blacksmith follower to Lv100 but they are now refusing to put out missions that she can counter (she has Deadly Minion counter... guess what they AREN'T giving me? Yup, Deadly Minion).

I think I'm just losing interest in the game or something. Q up for a dungeon, oh yay, 45min+ queues. I don't feel like having my thumbs up my behind waiting 45min to do a dungeon. Even when I do do a dungeon, I get only 1 piece in the whole dungeon, and that's only from the last boss. yippie. yay. such amaze. much loot.

Check followers... yay lots and lots of missions.......I don't have counters for. nice.

Crafting? I'm at like 80 ingots to make an upgrade item... but only 4 of the 15 bloods. so meh. not much enjoyment in that. I get to hit 2 buttons a day, wow.

I'd love to finish upgrading my Garrison, but some chucklenut thought it was an awesome idea to make the Lv TWO stables cost 900 garrison resources (wtf? lol) and I only have like 700. Maybe 4 days from now I can build it... then back to clicking the box everyday. I could go out and grind wood, but that's only 80 per day.

I'm just..... not feeling it with this World of Warcraft: The Mobile Game.

The setting is cool, the concept is cool... the implementation of it is just.... off.

[Kulaf]

Not sure I agree. Ok he is trying to get one follower to level 100.......uhh use your other followers to counter and take the BS with for the xp? Or does he only have 1 follower? I have like 23. with 22 at level 100 and several geared up for higher ilvl missions.

[Fallakin Kuvari]

Yeah, guy is full of it. From dailies alone I have an hour to an hour and a half of gameplay available to me.
