So, for everyone playing either Taiwan or US, you'd know Patch 4.1 is coming up Soon™. Any thoughts about it? The Call to Arms system for the LFG tool is kinda cool especially since the reward satchels are BoA.

Didn't Blizzard also add this reward in Heroics to get more Tanks/Healers in order to shorten the LFD tool?
Reviving Zul'gurub and Zul'aman was kind of dumb though, but the new reward might be worth it... no tiger mount though..

I already mentioned that. I'm gonna level up my healer non-stop now just so I can get that BoA satchel. My hunter's my mount collector.

well i been reading about this new patch. The patches for mainly usa server problems. What happening in USA wow was that tanks were charging a large sum of gold to run these instances. So few tanks in USA wow. So blizzard decide make this patch to help stop it. Well if you read most popular game magazines they all seem say it going make it worse on wow than it already is on usa wow. They seems it will flip away from tank and go to the healer. Healer will start chargeing large sums of money. Right now most forums thinks this worse idea wow has ever come up since tbc. They say patch will not fix the problem.

Except, it will.

I play on Perenolde US, and I do see tanks advertise charging people, somwhere between 50g-100g. Queues are an upwards of 40 minutes during peak hours so I usually get a tank from my guild to speed things up.

However, with this patch, tanks will queue more, DPS will get lower queue times, and tanks will probably start charging less because of the large influx of tanks looking to make a profit. Yeah, this does bring in more bad tanks and healers, but since queue times are reduced and we can just replace them, who cares? Just cycle through them until you find a good one. Plus, the satchel awards mounts, can be sent from character to character, encouraging DPS to roll tank/healers. It's a win/win situation.

Interesting. Has the drop chance of mounts been discussed as of now?

They've determined it to be equal to the drop chance in the original instance. For example, Rivendare's Deathcharger has a 1% drop chance from the satchel.

the patch is fking gay, lost of probs in arena... MMR not counted, and wtf is wrong with feral druid? was sitting at a 2k MMR with my priest and won 2 games (of course these were not counted...) and lost 3, yeah im at 1810 MMR....
