Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
I'm getting real fucking sick of the spell effect design in the game these days. I just ran a dungeon with a lock that had the new green fire, and his immo aura/hellfire were giant fucking fields of bright pulsing web designed green bullshit. I couldn't see anything else on the ground, which is kind of problematic because you can't attack a level 1 critter without it attacking you with some sort of ground aoe these days, let alone in a dungeon. Not only was I unable to see anything else on the ground, but the effect is so flashy that it's near impossible to not focus on, causing you to be really distracted.
We've needed a client option to turn off friendly spell effects for 2 expansions now.

Nah, they were just the only ones actually at their computer playing this stupid game still. The other dps were probably jerking off or smoking their bong.Apparently there is a monk bug that has monks in LFR doing insane amounts of damage. Just did LFR ToE on my alt and this was the damage meters. This was the ToE Sha fight. Trash packs in ToE they were doing over 5 million dps.
Oondasta was pretty tough the first time around with nobody knowing what to do. Fun fight though.

Yeah, that's a shitty mechanic that should never exist on world bosses. Want to fuck with an opposing group's raid? Go stand in the middle and wipe them.

Since my retarded ass server will never down it on Horde side, thank you for this.

Monk Bug Causes Huge Damage Numbers! - World of Warcraft (Video)
World of Warcraft played host to a bizarre monk bug, resulting in some insane damage numbers.
Reddit user MidOrFeed put the above video of this bug up on reddit, and various tweets and forum posts appeared as more and more players discovered the bug, most likely by accident. This could have been seen as an exploit by Blizzard if players were to deliberately take advantage, but less likely if players just happened upon it by accident and proceeded as normal, rather like we see in the video above. An example of exploiting might have been for players to assemble a raid principally comprised of windwalker monks, for example.
The monk bug was based on the interaction of two abilities, Rushing Jade Wind and Spinning Crane Kick. Rushing Jade Wind is an ability affecting Spinning Crane Kick, giving it a damage multiplier. It seems like there was the accidental addition of some additional numbers to the Spinning Crane Kick multiplier, making the kick far more powerful than was ever intended. A cursory glance at some World of Logs pages reveals that, with these high numbers for monk output, Spinning Crane Kick was dealing about 98% of the damage the monks were putting out. And that was huge damage. World of Logs has one monk at 4.48 million DPS.
Now, clearly, this is not working as intended. While monks needed a DPS buff or two, they definitely should not have been putting out these sorts of numbers. People who have played for a couple of patches, specifically the Dragon Soul 4.3 Cataclysm patch?s early days, will remember a similar issue with retribution paladins, where their Censure ability that was dealing far too much damage.
Rather like the Censure bug, this was hotfixed at high speed, with rolling restarts to repair the bug completed at around 5.30pm PDT, as Blizzard confirmed on Twitter.

I remember that they added some trash loot in the patch that had old ZG models since they changed the zone.

I'm playing the now lesser corrupt,still broken resist mechanics red99 over everything else out right now andGLADLY.
If SoE finally put out that true original Velious box, let's call it EQPC and its a classic Velious server? I'll roll on EQPC first day and gladly pay 14.99 a month.
If something better comes out than EQPC? I'd play that. No mystery here. WoW is so watered down I can't even hear myself think when I'm playing it over the sound of "GOD THIS IS WATERED DOWN AND EASY, FUCKING OBAMA" in my head.
