Class Change Announcements For 3.1 Coming Soon, A Fix For Ebon Plague is Not.

In a thread of Mage QQ today, Ghostcrawler let is be known that information about class changes for 3.1 would be coming out “soon”. Hopefully that means that 3.1 will be on PTR’s “soon” as well.

Ghostcrawler
We are going to be announcing some of our plans for classes in 3.1 fairly soon. The announcements will be prominent. They will not be comprehensive. We are not going to announce every change we are going to make. We are going to risk giving you some insight into a work in progress, even though we may ultimately decide not to make some of the changes. You guys can help me remind other players of that when they get angry because we didn’t deliver a change that they were “promised.”

And who here that is specced Unholy doesn’t just hate the fact that you get ripped every time you group or raid with another Unholy DK? Ebon Plaguebringer bug sucks for us all but apparently Blizzard thinks respeccing is the answer.

Ghostcrawler
This is the right solution. However, as I said the last time this question was asked, our priority right now is making sure more DKs spec Frost or Blood, not how to reward groups that bring multiple Unholy DKs. We do recognize it is annoying though and we’ll get it fixed.

Another thing that has gotten some laughs lately is the random names that our Ghouls get. From Bonegobbler to Bonehead, I think I’ve seen some pretty messed up names lately. What are some of the funny ones you have seen?

Kenzi, I was just surfing the interweb for a mage leveling guide/spec whenI stumbled acrose a webstie that has posted “the 3.1 pacthnotes” it says that they are still from an unconfirmed source, but still, whats the harm in posting them? you posted some rumors before (i think >.>) well here is the link to the website:

If you aren’t willing to respec, then you shouldn’t expect to be accepted into a serious raiding guild.

Knowing your class means knowing your class, knowing only your spec is too narrow-minded.

Interesting “leaked” 3.1 notes, wishful thinking buffs~

• New Spell: Unholy Grip, 20 Runic Power, 3 min cooldown – Harnesses the unholy energy that surrounds and binds all matter, drawling all targets within a 30 yard radius towards the death knight and forcing all enemies to attack the death knight for 6 sec.

I’ve had a Ghoul named “Eyedrinker” once. Talk about wrong and impossible lol. But the best one I’ve had so far was “Corpsegrinder”. For those of you not familiar with the band ‘Cannibal Corpse’ thats the singer’s stage name and he’s a pretty big WoW fan. I tried hard to not let that ghoul die for the longest time but his fate was inevitable =(
