Elitism and Mages.Follow

#27 Sep 16 2010 at 7:12 AM Rating: Good
I fail to see how this wasn't gamechanging:

Mages

* Mage Armor - Now has a new, unique icon.
* Fixed the range for Arcane Missiles when used against large creatures.

Now that mage armor has a unique icon we are able to better discern it against all of those other icons without needing to remember which was which?!

Also, with the number of bosses that are large and the high number of people that played arcane back in vanilla, the second part is arguably even more important than the first.

Casting arcane missiles back then was dumb if you picked the right faction(hint, it was the one with Salvation). Smiley: tongue

Also, the arcane missile thing isn't listed on Wowwiki.

If you want the forum to change, then start posting useful information in it and help people. Become part of the community, rather then just complaining about it.

Xsarus, Pold and Anobix are elitist hippies sitting on thrones of gold throwing arcane ***** at the masses when they ask for information and I demand that they give me beer.

I think there's a limit to even our power over the masses, Anobix.Smiley: laugh

Also, a throne of gold sounds uncomfortable. I'd totally polymorph that into a La-Z-Boy reclining throne.

I just put nice soft memory foam cushions on my golden throne. It made it a lot more comfortable. It also has a TV remote built into the arm-rest!

I still don't know how I feel about throwing arcane *****, but if it is like throwing Arcane barrages, at least it has a bit of a cooldown.

I can't help but wonder if arcane ***** would benefit from the Arcane Blast. Hopefully I'll never find out.

I'm not sure if I would rather have an arcane blast or an arcane explosion in this case.

Typical for mages, Blizz has already buffed arcane *****.

Arcane flows--renamed arcane runs--now also reduces the cooldown of arcane *****.

Improved arcane explosion now also grants a 50% chance for arcane explosion to proc arcane *****.

I hear the PTR is already full of pally qq about skid marks.

That is exactly the type of elitist attitude that is ruining this forum!

Are you in the middle of your monthly Arcane Flows and forgot to use your Magic Absorption, Pold? Maybe if you used some Arcane Concentration you could come ahead with this!

To be fair, it's quite a good icon.

oh man, I've been missing out.

If they've extended the range on Arcane *****, I'm back in before Cata.

On the subject of mage elitism... is anyone else looking forward to laughing maniacally over vent as people ask for portals again? I know I am.
