    The flawless buff has been pushed back in the DEVs face, many times over, so hopefully they listen as it was gained by doing heroics in VOV and then made better via raids which works out as well for all.

    While I too would enjoy doing the Sig line/TS line only once, I can see why they make you do it again, because I've done it on 5 raiding toons and we still have 5 months till expac, so eh, no love lost really I suppose.

    The resolve being spaced out that much wasn't the problem. The problem was with only one piece of gear dropping in each box, slowing us down and the fact that resolve was boosted a bit by having a premium mount vs heroic. Looks like they may be removing that piece. DO NOT moan and groan when they add some crazy DPS type stats to it giving it a huge boost over the heroic mount, because well it has to be able to sell as well.

    The ability to fly after TS line was pushed behind 15 quests, because it was really kind of simple. I was just lazy and put it off and finally decided to do it, running mind you and it took me 30 mins to do the quests. The longest part was waiting on the chatter inside the arena. While i think we should be able to fly out of the gate, it is what it is and its not game breaking.

    I totally agree with the familiar leveling, but then they get you to buy more crates for celestial chance to get the one you want, vice the one you get and have to level. Makes you decide to get more, so again, doubt they change this.

    DPS (as I've been told) is no longer a tiered system. Why would you put support above tanks or tanks above healers? Why not healers above tanks and support or tanks above support but below healers. There is no set way anyway and gear and builds again matter to a small fraction. Auto attack is actually good for some people again and still bad for many others.

    Even with channeler pets being messed up, if they are, they actually have one of the best EPICS in the game atm, so they still pull their weight.

    I've heard about one server having a bot group running on it in contested, but it's not mine, so really have payed no mind I suppose. Contested was great, EXCEPT for the fact the gear was way overtuned. The gear drops from H3 contested mobs should have been 440 with 445 bonus gear. The helm from doing all should've been a 455 like the neck. This way all those raiders and others wouldn't be in there all the time because RAID gear would actually be better than an open contested zone lol. There is the matter of the white adorn, which should be based off of anything H3 contested or greater. H3 zones and even raid kills should give you an update. This would cut down on the foot traffic as well.

    I too payed for the reforging, but I am glad to see it gone. One peice of gear giving you 100 reuse was dumb. One piece giving you 50 casting was dumb. Bring back a teir of adorns for this teir that are reuse/casting and make people use them. It's a choice on gear as it drops, plus having to give us an adorn. It sounds like you want to max all your stats on 2 pieces of gear, wear all the adorns YOU want to wear, not what you NEED to wear, and want everything in the first month to drop for you so you have it all. You know what that leads too... oh my DPG... we have nothing to do, this was a super boring expac because we've gotten everything already. Please give us something else to do and do it quickly lol.

    The EPIC has been the most poorly implemented design in the game thus far.. agree. They should've went to Master only up to raids and then progressed for updates off teired mobs. T2 raid mobs give you GM, T4 raid mobs give you ancient and final mob in the game gives you celestial. Then everyone has it, but at different levels based off their game style, just like gear should be.

    No body really wears mit/max health adorns, just like max health bardings...kinda showed your gameship there. Yes we all would like to run the absolute best designed adorn in the game for the spots we want them, but sometimes you just have to give up a little to accomplish something, you know, a choice...
