The fact he was in a Net Cafe during that event is quite funny.

I agree with his statement , that legendary comes a bit late. Blizzard should be careful on Legendary release. Glaives were indeed a good timing.

Looking forward in more info about that bow tests , mainly as survival specc.

they cant release legendary's to soon either. i think the glaives fit perfectly where they are. and the bow is just like the staffs from naxx.

Nice interview. However, I doubt it will be useless by the beggining of end game WotLK. It is unlikely that WotLK will make the same jump as TBC did and even then Atiesh was still decent in Karazhan. Thunderfury was a whole story in itself as it was the best aggro gaining weapon for most of TBC. So I doubt Thori`dal will become obsolete so fast.

Personally, I would like to see more legendary item questlines. While legendary items are legendary by themselves, I still think related questlines make them a whole lot better.

Ye Glaives where good timing, however with like 20 % drop chance it's nothing special having glaives...

The interview was really nice. Again, big grats to the bow!

In terms of arena, there will quite soon be a very special tactic named after you: "supreme hunterzerg omgwtf" or something like that

and again, big grats!

We have been the first to farm BT in our server, after months of farming we havent even seen one MH glaive drop. Considering the dps boost it offers, its a huge advantage for any guild to have glaive equipped rogues.

Since encounters are based around characters abilities, and "character" in wow means available gear+abilities. this is all but fair for non glaive rogues, especially when ur farming bt for months and a newly formed guild gets MH on their first kill. (happened two times, and in one case 2 consecutive tries)

Imo the idea they had behind the splinters of atiesh, was really well balanced, and rewarded the guilds who put more effort into raiding. I don't see why they reverted back to a luck system again.

Rather pointless interview. Didn't see an interview with Drama for the first Ateish, with Furi on the first Glaive set, and I'm pretty sure the first TF. It's an item, it's yellow so it's obviously an upgrade over a purple, and it's not in any way game-breaking. Any dual glaive rogue will beat a hunter with this, so, that "hunters should always be number 1 with the right group set up" was interesting.

And gratz on your goals being so loot oriented.

If I'm not mistaken, Risen (me) got the first Atiesh.

Posting for the sake of posting generic answers? It's simple. Questline would mean that everyone will have the weapons eventually. The luck factor is there in order to make the content that blizzard offers more repeatable. I what reason does a rogue have to go to BT if he gets the glaives on the first few runs? That's right. There is no point (given he also has t6). This luck fact makes the excitement of raiding more fun.
