General

* /timetest is a command that can be run to provide information on game performance. /timetest 0 turns the command off. When the command is issued, the next time a player uses a flight master to travel, certain statistics will be measured and displayed at the end of that flight. All weather effects and spawns are shutdown during the test.
* Quest givers with blue question marks no longer show up on the minimap.
* NPC's who you have completed a quest for will display a question mark on mouseover rather than an exclamation point.

* A "Withdraw-Repair Only" button has been added to the guild bank controls. If this is set for a guild rank, then that rank cannot actually withdraw funds from the guild bank, but they can still use that daily amount of money for repairs.

[Griever]

Wirkung vom Viper Aspekt von 50% auf 55% der gesammten Intelligenz erhöht.
Ned wirklich das wahre...

[Thunderion]

* Conjure Mana Gem (Rank 6 - Emerald) now restores 1800 to 3000 mana and has three charges.
* Ice Block (Frost) is now available on the trainer to all mages at level 30.

also 3 charges vom Mana Gem kann ja mal alles!
IB sowie so geil

[sepu]

vor allem wie ist das mit den kleineren managems? können die das dann auch mit 3 chargen? und wieso rank 6? bisher gibts doch nur 4..... grün gelb rot und jade

Alo ich denke, dass ein neuer reinkommen wird. Bis jetzt gibt es 5 Mana-Steinderl:
Mana Agate (gruen)
Mana Jade (gruen)
Mana Citrine (gelb)
Mana Ruby (rot)
Mana Emerald (gruen)

Der groeßte - Emerald - macht 1136 - 1364 Mana. In der Patch-Note steht:

Conjure Mana Gem (Rank 6 - Emerald) now restores 1800 to 3000 mana and has three charges.

Also duerfte es sich um einen neuen Stein handeln, der nicht nur 3 charges besitzt sondern auch deutlich mehr Mana zurueckgibt. Und ein neuer waere dann auch - quasi - ein Rank 6 Stein - einzig das Wort 'Emerald' da drinnen wundert mich, da jeder Stein einen eigenen Namen hatte.

[Minyatur Laurelin]

ich schätz mal es ist einfach der nächste Rang der den Rang 5 gem (emerald) conjured, aber eben mit höherer manaleistung und 3 charges. Du hast also weiterhin 5 gems, kannst dir beim emerald aber aussuchen welchen der beiden zu summonen willst.

[sepu]

weiss jetzt eigentlich jemand für wann der patch geplant ist?

[madtom]

Ich bezweifel das es jemanden gibt der das weis, Blizz intern und extern

[Gellan]

Schaut eher schlecht aus mit heuer

No weekly maintenance until January

According to Nethaera, we will be getting a short downtime (15 min max) in lieu of the usual weekly maintenance, it also means no patch 2.3.2 until the next year.

Over the holidays, on December 25th and January 1st, we will be performing a series of rolling restarts for all realms starting at 5:00 AM PDT, in lieu of weekly maintenance. Each realm is anticipated to be down for no more than 15 minutes, and should additional maintenance be necessary, we will notify our players in advance. Have a happy holiday! (src

IB und Mana-Gem kommen morgen! Yippieh-i-ey!!!!

[sepu]

wird sich (zumindest meine) standardraidskillung 10/48/3 verändern. durch die 3* 2,3k manasteine wird man nicht mehr so auf den freizauberzustand angewiesen sein und dann ist die überlegung noch 8 punkte von arkan in frost wandern für den 2. eisblock. alternativ kann auch die standard beibehalten werden und statt des alchimistensteins n dmg trinket reingeswitched werden und dafür ein noch höherer dmg genereirt werden. auf jeden fall eine feine sache insbesondere der mana gem, sowohl raid als auch pvp seitig.

[Thunderion]

Ich werde mal eine kranke 2/56/3 versuchen. Damit pfeif ich zwar mal auf den T5-Setbonus im PvE (der eh nur beim Trash wirklich was gebracht hat mit dem verbesserten Arcane-Blast) und v.a. auf das Clearcasting (mal sehen, ob die Gems dies kompensieren koennen), dafuer koennts im PvP besser gehen. Verwende auch erstmalig den 10%-Chance-Stun.

[sepu]

für pvp insbes. arena bräuchtest eigentlich die 11 punkte in eis für den 2. ib sonst lachen dich die gegner trotzdem nur aus. ansonsten dürfte feuer zumindest geeigneter sein als vorher wenn du 10% stun und 10% laufspeed mitskillst. dadurch dürftest du zumindest mit drachenodem und blast wave die chance haben lange genug auf abstand zu bleiben, wirst aber trotzdem erstmal immer first target sein wenn man sieht dass du kein frostmage bist, daher ist der 2. block in der arena weiterhin pflicht.

[Thunderion]

Jo, hab Stun und laufspeed mitgeskilled. Das mit dem 2ten IB ist sicherlich eine nette Sache, aber das kannst Du knicken mit Fire. Du hast naemlich etwas in der Rechnung uebersehen:
ColdSnap ist naemlich jetzt auf die alte Position von IB gerutscht --> also 21er-Talent (Icy Veins ist auf der alten ColdSnap-Stelle).

dann ist die überlegung noch 8 punkte von arkan in frost wandern für den 2. eisblock

sind also in Deinem Fall nicht 8 sondern 18 Punkte - sprich 8 (und somit auch Dragonsbreath) aus dem Fire-Tree:
Hier ein guter Calculator fuer 2.3.2 (und auch gleich meine Specc-Ueberlegung):
Thunder's Fire-Mage 2.3.2

[sepu]

hm ok dann kannst fire für arena weiterhin vergessen schade eigentlich

deine specc ist halt dann der ultimative spgat zwischen pve fähigkeit und noch pvp insbesondere bg, da funktioniert das schon wieder viel besser als in der arena.
