Not surprised at all, GW2 launches the same day (non-early start). I wouldn't doubt if they kept D3 1.0.4 to debut around this time as well. |

From In an Age:» inanage.com/In what undoubtedly was an amazing case of pure coincidence, Diablo 3′s groundbreaking 1.0.4 patch is coming out the fourth week of August. Hmm. What day do Blizzard patches come out on? Tuesdays, I think? What is the Tuesday in the last week of August? The… 28th. August 28th. Good thing I have nothing else planned to do that day. Kidding aside, patch 1.0.4 may as well be called Diablo 3.5 for the sheer scope of the sweeping changes to endgame..... |

That's pretty normal. I remember Fury warriors reforging so much mastery and slotting pure hit because of the itemizations and loss of ArPen. It was kind of hilarious. |

This will be the *real* beta test! Haha |

Anyone know if this is changing the "Stay Classy" guild achievement?
We're 1 gnome warrior away from our 8th bank slot, and I'm curious if we just screwed the pooch.
I don't even know if its changing at the actual Mists launch. |

if the classy ach is changing then get it done now and get the 8th tab, if it doesnt change you havent lost anything, if it changes for a 9th tab and all panderan need to be leveled for it, you have one less toon to make the ach |

So that will be a no raid week for a lot of guilds most likely since people will need to learn their new specs and how to play them. For each toon they have. I doubt I will have time to get my warrior to 85 since he's only 40 right now and I have a few other plans for my rogue and priest to finish up first. |

On the other hand that week COULD have some super OP classes till they patch it.

I'm guessing a couple of days of bug fixes, be sure to say goodbye to some of your spells and welcome others, rotations and macros will have to be re-done. (having 10 toons it's gonna take its time for me LOL) |

for anyone that hasnt played a warrior on beta or the ptr , rend being gone is a big mind game, you will be reaching for it and your rotation will be wierd without it, you have an ability that applies rend with TC passively, for low level warriors its abig pita.
just to get you prepared. |

On the plus side, when this happened, I stopped pulling aggro off tanks; on the minus side, I stopped doing any damage whatsoever. |

So you're willing to go 8/8H while abusing mis-calculated values and you're OK with that?
Kind of sounds like guilds killing H Hagara pre-nerf then not being able to do it again after they patched it.
Can't believe you would actually cheat and do it versus actually learning how to do it the right way. |

Pandas and all they can do And all the monks (every race but worgen and goblin) Previous achievements tended to not include new stuff, because I think it breaks their achievement system (as in, you can't modify achievements that someone has already obtained without removing the rewards associated with it). That might still be the case, so that getting Stay Classy just involved the existing criteria, and monks and pandas have their own achieve. |

I'd be willing to take a shot at it even if the way its broken made it harder. Personally I haven't even zoned into hagara or zon on heroic, only Morchok/Yor/ and ultra Hopefully the guild's healers all show up this week so I might see H-Zon (they only had 2 show up the other week so H-Zon was off the table) and I've been told that Hagara was attempted before I joined but they didn't down her. Ya I know if I hadn't taken that year long wow break I'd likely be in a better position raid wise. Heck my most memorable Boss was a Glitchy cho'gal, they looked at the health pools of things and though it was reg (back in 4.0) he was all mixed in with heroic, crazy fight and awsome (just wish there was an achev for downing a glitched out boss) |

Yeah, those were the days! Even after all this time, the running joke in my guild is that I constantly have aggro in Fury, and never have it in Prot. |
