Took the words right out of my mouth. Although it'd be nice if we could have some sort of limited unique ammo.

I also have a Mage that this will change up a little bit.

When I played a hunter the cost of ammo didn't bother me. What bothered me is the loss of a bag space for my quiver. This is really good news for hunters on two fronts.

Poor engineers - I just got to 219 engineering and was hoping that mithril ammo might make me some cash. I guess I better hurry up!

On the contrary, I thought you might defend your headline instead of reacting with hostility to criticism. I'm not sure I understand your response.

1. Are you saying that you agree that the headline is hyperbole and the changes are fairly standard rather than major? If this is the case, I think you may be giving up too fast.

2. By your threat to not post if people might criticize your posts, are you saying you can only post with hyperbole or not post at all? I've read other posts by you and I can't remember any other hyperbole. If you believe that you are incapable of writing without hyperbole, I think you are being too hard on yourself.

It might help. Ammunition will still be around, it simply won't deplete, so hunters will actually look for crafted ammo. Normally, most hunters don't buy crafted ammo because it isn't that big of a dps bonus when you consider the high cost of ammo.

I think your problem is that you've forgotten that the word "major" can be fairly subjective. To you, these may not seem like major changes. Honestly, since I'm not a WoW player, I can't be sure myself. However, judging from some of the comments on the WoW threads and even here in this thread from people who do play the game, there are those that apparently feel they are major changes. Thus, the title would be appropriate for them.

Happy?

I'm glad they're fixing this for hunters but I wish they'd expand on it a bit. Warlocks still have a bag full of soulshards. Hybrids still have to carry and extra set of armor or 2 with them.

Warlocks can make soulshards by killing shit. Other classes don't NEED extra armor sets with them in the field, they can pick the armor for what they can do, and will just lose out some versatility between fights. Hunters HAVE to go Buy/Craft more ammo to work.

I can see Blizzard's logic behind this. I am not sure if will change much of anything, but I do see the logic behind it.

Hmm, this PTR is suppose to be in this February with some of the 3.1 changes. I remember blizz saying they wanted Dual Spec to be in the PTR from the beginning. So far i'm not liking the fact that they are giving almost every class a Replenish ability. Uniqueness is slowly dying in WoW.

Other than that not much for the classes I play. (Shaman, Warrior, Druid, DK) Since I'm blood on my DK nothing for me other than nerfs to Frost and Unholy which are needed.

Looks interesting, but I pretty much lost interest in WoW when my account got hacked and my characters got cleaned out.
Blizzard might restore them, but I think there's probably a certain time limit on how long you have to get in game and send a ticket, and since I wasn't subscribed at the time, I haven't done it yet.
