Q u o t e:
God, don't get me going on the no AH in shattrath. No, don't do it. I'm not even going to make a sarcastic comment on what great design forcing people to take trips back and forth between the outlands and azeroth is so that level 20 beggers can feel as though there are in fact high level players on the server to try to get money from.
Q u o t e:
Lorewise, boars drop armor and weapons.
Amirite?
Q u o t e:
And I quote, the last line of my post you partially quoted, "There are banks in Shattrath, I fail to see why they couldn't set up a small trading post.".
So the question becomes, not if the old world is "viable", but why bother in such an unsignificant way?
Man, and I didn't even want to get sucked into a conversation about it. I'm well aware it's not going to change, but why not just say "it's so lower levels and those who didn't buy TBC don't feel totally left behind", and then we can just disagree on whether or not that really matters.
Q u o t e:
I guess. Seems like you're not, or don't want, to get into specifics, so we're just going to talk in circles.
No big deal, anyway.
Q u o t e:
How inconvenient is it to right click a portal to get an ah?
Q u o t e:
It wasn't a knock, I'm just saying.
I don't see the direct correlation between having an AH in Shattrath and having Azeroth be necessary.
If what you're saying is that the AH specifically drives high level traffic through Azeroth, then I understand but disagree that it's worthwhile.
If that's not what you're saying, then I guess I'm lost.
Q u o t e:
If technical problems are the main consideration, okay.
I was thinking more along the lines of game philosophy, such as bringing people back to Azeroth, which I think would be pretty lame as I've stated.
I'm no expert when it comes to technical problems, however, so I won't debate that.
Q u o t e:
explain the AH in area 52 then...
...can i say I PWNT TSERIC now?
and armor dropping off of bears...coming from the same company that a swarm of locust drops polearms...(d2)
how about now?
okay going back to the AH in shat thing- if all the AHs can you still run with the line that AH are placed where there is a stable area...and were excluding area 52 for tserics sake, how do you explain all the AH being connected?
you cant say AH can only be instable areas when the AH all over the world are connected...and the armies at shattrah- that seems pretty stable not to mention the millions of horde and alliance
i think i can say it now
Q u o t e:
explain how traffic merrets an AH
if high = AH then shattrah is more busy than Darn so why not?
low? that doesnt make sense
shattrah at the very least have a cross faction sense it harbors both factions and is very high traffic will all of the factions there scryers low town aldor etc and all of the trainers
i said it twice
side note: if you did put a AH there would have to be 2 just like there are battlemasters but im sure thats not hard
edit: shattrah is busyier than SW possibly and definalty more than darn, i assume its same for horde and undercity/TB
Q u o t e:
lvl 7 alt that was deleted a month ago > tseric
boo-ya
i pwnt tseric
is he in my account sharding my purplez now?
Q u o t e:
Im right then are'nt I? After the next expac moves people back into Azeroth you will put an AH in Shattrah. I figured you would. People will probably still hearth to Shatt to make use of those handy portals. Shattrah will become the AH/Portal city or something while everyone is off actually fighting in the new Azeroth zones.
Q u o t e:
since your here,
are warriors getting buffed? say yes i dont need specifics just hope
Q u o t e:
Blues aren't known to respond frivolously. Why respond to someone whose obviously just trying to get a rise out of you? I've always admired the unshakeable impassiveness of the blue posters. Not that they're impassive in real LIFE...Just what they let filter to the board. :)
Q u o t e:
Charming if unrelated story. Since I only guessed once about a yes or no question an was wrong. Seemed logical to me to make Outland worth visiting again after the next big thing is opened up.
Q u o t e:
Although I do wonder if it would really be a problem if it was just kept 58+. I really can't comment much on that though.
Q u o t e:
Wut is context?
Q u o t e:
Gonzo from the muppet show? He was my favorite!
Q u o t e:
I thought it was pretty clear that I meant if there was an AH in Shattrath, would keeping it 58+ solve the technical difficulties you described earlier?
It also sort of cheapens the Dark Portal. It's supposed to be this epic thing you go through once you gain enough power, and it gives you access to a huge war-ridden world.
Having nekkid level 1 gnomes running around is kinda blah.
Q u o t e:
Tseric I realize this, as it was a joke...but I won't hold that against you either.
