They have some pretty significant boosts to doing the quests on other characters once you finish one section of it. After completing up to the current max with my druid my shaman is gaining about 50% more of those bits per LFR kill. I would guess as the expansion nears its end you are going to get something like that gaze of the black prince buff we saw in pandaria that inflates those drops even further.

Yeah we have a lock that's hitting 50-60k on a bunch of fights and even into the 80s on Operator and he's only like 675 or something, that shit is pretty insane.
Well, farming them from Pandaria mobs is faster now than at 90, plus you can buy them from AH.
I think it's faster to just grind dig sites in Pandaria anyway. If you buy the Mantid Sonic Locator thing it'll limit the possible dig site spawns to just 2 zones for 24 hours. You can zip back and forth and complete dozens of artifacts in a short amount of time.

I'm sure they'll look nicer with proper particle effects and moving parts. The BRF sets are all pretty spectacular.

The problem isn't 6.2.
It's "how long to 7.0". Because if Blizzard insists on announcing its expansion at Blizzcon for its usual oct-nov 2016 release, you're not going to see a 2 million sub dip between early and late expansion, you're going to see a 4-5 million dip this time.

I still enjoy progression in the game, but it's getting to the point where the raiders we need are hardly logging in and we're stuck with trials people that halfass it (yet always show up). We got zero progress last week and I hope it was just a fleeting thing due to easter or w/e, because otherwise we might have met our end with Thogar
About brewmaster nerfs - they are for sure needed to be toned down, but I think they're going about it the wrong way. One of the more retarded things is that stagger worked on mechanics that other tanks couldn't mitigate - such as the throw on Hans & Franz etc, which gave them a huge advantage in not needing externals or w/e. They are removing this. Adding an incredible dps nerf to all monks (for some reason??) and then completely gutting the stagger mechanic as well as breaking serenity, monks will go from #1 to #5 over night. There's a large discussion about this on the mmo champion forum as well
I have mixed reactions. I like my monk as it's been my main since they were released, but I also like progression and I have all other tanks as backup in case something like this would happen.
Don't see why they don't give us a 10-15% stagger nerf, nerf guard and then call it a day.

Buying from the AH was my choice so far, don't really dig archeology.
I'll try the sonic locator method though, at least in pandaland I can fly from dig site to dig site instead of hoofing it through draenor.

Well, the reason I gave to my guildies for quitting was simply this: raids are not enough (and honestly I don't have that much fun doing them) and there is nothing else worth doing where I can spend my time. Garrisons? They are horrible on so many ways, it'd pain me to list them, but I'll just say they add nothing of value, they are a timesink that "forces" people to do a list of daily chores. The game progressively lost its soul, from xpack to xpack. I doubt WoW is going to keep many subs at this rate. Big sales and 2-3 months of fun may keep the whole thing afloat, but then what? 2 years for an xpack? Urgh.
BrM nerfs were expected, I'm so glad I stopped playing before they arrived, I'd hate to play without shuffle and with another round of dps nerfs.

I quit while working on h.brf progression. Guild I was raiding with (hadn't yet server xferred) merged with a different guild and wanted to use their monk tanks, asked me to go DPS. I said "nah" and never really got around to finding a new guild. Realized I was having more fun doing other stuff than raiding on schedule.
Have a friend still playing -- he's spent the last month accumulating random teleportation items, faction, and other knick-nacks. The majority of his gametime now is goblinmoding the AH. He isn't even that interested in Tanaan; he loves solo content but lost all faith in Blizzard implementing interesting and rewarding solo stuff.

Armor always worked on H+F Suplex, the issue was that when it first came out, when you got picked up you were unable to take any actions until you got smashed, so you couldn't activate any of your cooldowns. Brewmasters, however, still had stagger to survive the hit since it was always up, and could just purify off the damage right after getting smashed.
The main imbalance right now with Stagger vs. armor is the fact that stagger works against the ramming damage of siegemakers on Blackhand, while armor doesn't. This lets BrMs facetank the things against a wall, while no other tank can.

Anyone have this display and use it with WoW by chance? Or any other MMORPG?

I would concur unless they are both announcing the new expansion AND starting beta for it at blizzcon its going to be at least another year and we will see yet another 14+ month break of zero content again like pandaria saw because at this point it looks like 6.2 is the big hurrah for this expansion.

The really sad thing is even if they do start beta for another expansion at blizzcon you are still looking at nearly a year from 6.2's probable release date to when an expansion could theoretically release generally they tend to do 6-8months of beta. At this point my gut reaction is short of them announcing an expansion prior to blizzcon there is pretty much no way they avoid another 14 month gap in content.
