So they added a non-consumed Flask to give Alchemists their passive bonus without being forced to use consumables. Someone joked that this still makes Alchemists worse because we have to drink it every hour. Semi-funny, but then...

It's three days later and I just found out that it doesn't work like the Greatness proc, choosing your highest stat to buff. No, you must drink it multiple times to get the buff you want. I've been re-drinking it every time I re-buff, which means I'm switching between the AP and SP buffs all the time. Without realizing it, of course.

Trying to think of a way to get Power Auras to show me when it's wrong but I just don't know how =/

Figure out the name of the buff you want, write it down, set your graphic, then check
"Show only when not active"

Ok, so how do I differentiate between:

Flask of the North
Flask of the North

If you saw my Power Auras config, you'd understand that I already know how to use it =p

Unlike Greatness procs, your highest stat is not chosen. They programmed the Flask to work based on your class/spec. However, if you play a hybrid, you're forced to drink two or three times to get the proper buff. So far I've read comments here saying druid and shaman have this problem, but I'm sure other classes have it too.
Hybrids lose again. My mage/alchemist friend has never had it fail to give spellpower.

*shrug* Then it just means that you already knew exactly why it was doing what it did, and already posted about it, before you wrote up a whole post here to bitch about it.

Actually, if you bothered to look at the timestamps, it was still four days after the patch that I realized this. I posted on wowhead after I posted here.

You people never let me rant, do you? Well, take this then.

I can't play on my main anymore. He's frozen. Completely frozen. Every time I log in, the game crashes. Only my main. I've done all the folder-renaming and cache clearing and all that fun stuff. Didn't work. Still crashes. Took it up with a GM who couldn't figure it out and escalated it. Been sitting on this escalated ticket for 8 hours now with no response.

Am I allowed to complain now?

Looks like my druid's hitting 80 then.

Not that it's hard with 10% shoulders and 10% chest and flying.

Leveling as Feral, so my current speed rotation is to shift to Flight Form, drop and shift to Cat, and Stealth on the way down. It's fun.

Uhm... You're a retard...

You come into popular game threads and bash the games with crappy reasons. Don't like WoW? Don't come into the thread. Your posts in this and the MapleStory thread are entirely pointless.

Gtfo nub****.


In WoW related news, I was looking forward to the 3.2 patch because I wanted to level up a druid alt, but with less than a month left of summer before school starts, I think I'll wait til Christmas break to resubscribe. I get dragged in way too easily.

Sucks...all the U25 gear I got before the patch is now worthless because everyone and their dogs have the same gear. 2.4 all over again.

It's not worthless. YOu had all that time with much better gear to progress further and get yet better gear. That means you should be able to get through the new 10 and 25 normal and heroic raids faster than the people who still need to go and get that gear that you already earned, keeping you just as ahead of them as you were before.

I know, it's just sort of a slap in the face at first, despite that that's always how the game has been.

If you can't parlay having t8 gear into getting 245/258 gear before the people who still have 7.0 and ilvl200 epics get t8 gear and then 245/258 gear, that's not the fault of the game or the patch.
