Re: How can the server have 8 billion people but getting a group is a nightmare?

Que times for dungeons will forever be awful for dps - and the reason for that are mainly the dps :D I have seen it all, HoJ needing hunters, ret pallies who refuse to even buff, Warriors who refuse to tank but rip threat on every single pull and all sorts of gameplay that puts the individual dpses ...

Re: Kalimdor's Revenge should scale with spellpower

Procing at will is a bad concept i agree. If an item is meant to consistently trigger its effect, it can be made into an on use effect. many of these weapons are balanced around not being reliable when you need them to. Having procs at will is unbelievably powerful. This in turns lowers what effects...

Re: Kalimdor's Revenge should scale with spellpower

How about no. Kalimdors revenge is an absolute stinker of a weapon for the boss that drops it. Even with a bit of spellpower scaling it would still not be considered good. It would be an easy way to make a super iconic weapon somewhat more useful. But i would go with a 42% scaling - befitting the s...
