Suprfli6 posted:Yeah those ones are slightly different. The swarmers and also most of the other types underground in the tunnels spawn two bugs on death and those give exp. The Rotting Cadavers at the second field in WPL are the same. I noticed this same thing in the Tanaris hive... the bugs there spawn 2 mini bugs that can be 1-shotted and give full xp. I don't think it was like that in vanilla though so I pretty much just did the quest and left... I'd really rather level at a normal rate so I actually have time to level skills, run instances, get the appropriate level of rep, etc. etc. I am kind of OCD about actually finishing every quest in the zones I run. Power-leveling throws that off and makes it even more boring when you have to come back and grind rep or run the beginning steps of a chain, etc.

Wheelchair Stunts posted:So why didn't they just ban the people they found exploiting this and then put a temporary freeze on character creation while they iron out the bugs? Or just restrict script commands for all accounts that do not have at least one character over level X. Would someone really be willing to level a character to, say, level 30, just to grief the server one time and have their account banned? Would that work, or is there behind-the-scenes scripting that has to happen to make the game work? I don't really know how this stuff works

Wouldn't this page be good enough for what you're wanting? Or am I misunderstanding?

CANON posted:That is the page my version of the realm checker currently scrapes for the server population number, as mentioned before, every time the page is requested it has to query the database and game server which will become taxing if too many people use the application. Ah I didn't realize that the page did an active query to the server every time you refresh it. I guess I assumed that something pushes data out to the page or something (I don't know how this stuff works)

It's acting differently from yesterday - this time the login server isn't working either, and the forums, etc. More like what it was doing a few weeks ago when everyone was saying DDOS. edit: I got in just now and it seems fine, but some people are reporting bad lag. Sounds like the DDOS game again where one of the servers is getting hit. lapse fucked around with this message at Nov 7, 2011 around 22:26 |

Exact same thing happened around this time yesterday according to people. Apparently this guy gets out of work or wakes up at this time... I was under the impression that DDOSing was pretty expensive though (or at least required a lot of people) How is one dude able to do this.

I would support just leaving it as a roll system until the roster stabilizes a little bit. Yeah it sucks that someone might hit 60, get an epic, and then never log on again, but it seems like a lot of work to set up a DKP system this early, before a bunch of people have even hit 60. I would let the bulk of the people currently leveling hit 60, and then at that point, if the first 4 or 5 MC bosses are working pretty well by then, maybe that's the time to implement a system.

I still say /roll is fine until the bulk of the levelers hit 60 and the raid team stabilizes a bit. There is a pretty big group of 45-55s that have been coming up through the levels as a mob. Plus there seems to be a ton of people who are gone currently, poopsocking their way through Skyrim instead of WoW. Give it 2-3 weeks and have this discussion again. Personally I don't care what the system is after that. Lets review the 4 most common systems that have been discussed here. 1. Roll - Works fine for the place we're at right now, but long term it is tough to justify some dude who just hit 60 rolling in on his first raid and getting lucky on a roll for Thunderfury or something. 2. Loot council - Loot council seems to be used simultaneously by the best raid groups and the worst raid groups, and causes either no drama at all or total implosion depending on who sits on the council. With goons, I suspect it would not work. 3. Class leaders - Class leader system sounds fine the way it was just described, but I would add that you need class leaders that are willing to defer on the "best" items that everyone always wants. I have been in guilds where a class leader gets the idea that "I'll take all this other stuff after everybody else, but I'm the first guy that gets ________". That's fine if you're the main tank and the item matters for progression, but other than that, just breeds drama. The uber items should go first to non-class leaders whenever feasible. 4. DKP - DKP is fine but you need a clear explanation of exactly what "oversight" will take place and what "checks" it will have, or it will also breed drama when someone is forced to take a "upgrade" where they get an extra +2 spirit or something, and then the next boss drops what they actually needed. Exaggeration there, but everyone gets the point hopefully. lapse fucked around with this message at Nov 14, 2011 around 23:36 |

It's not actually that bad if you're in the guild. I would imagine it would be tough if you were just some random guy though.

boji posted:Could you first train the other warlocks so they can meter stroke without constant aggro? That would be neat. I haven't really checked anybody's spec but I'm guessing the guys that keep pulling aggro don't have master demonologist? I just remember warlocks bitching in vanilla that their only spec option was MD/Ruin. For mages at least we should still have plenty of gap between tank threat and ourselves. I didn't pull anything with a flask last week, other than some random annihilator hits.
