Title: MoP Beta
Post by: Rargnasha on March 31, 2012, 02:03:07 AM
So, I just got my beta invitation as a second wave tester and will be rolling three characters at the beta realms, a Panda monk, an orc monk and an orc warrior.
All of them will be named something along the name of Rargnasha and I'll post here which realm I'll make them on.
I'll be writing things I find out on the beta here for those who're interested in such.
And if we get other people who get their keys too, they'll be welcome to tag join the realm and give me a poke!
Note: This may very well come to contain spoilers! So beware!

So far monks remind a bit of rogues, at this level you currently have a attack that uses energy but gives you chi, you can have up to 4 chi at a time and the other abillities ive gained so far consume either 1 or 2 chi.
The kick that costs 2 can only be used after a enemy has gone under a certain amount of health.
Monks also seem to have stances, though i haven't gotten any others than the starting stance yet.

From what I know you only get the other stances if you take the non DPS specs.

Seems there's a healing stance (for mistweaver)changes energy to mana and all your energy abillites end up costing mana instead.
And theres a tank stance, which reduces damage taken and critical hits etc, you also get stagger which to quote "you shrug off attacks, casuing 50% of the damage to happen instantly and the remaining 50% to be divided over 9 sec

I've made an ugly, scarred fat bastard of a pandaren monk who should he make it to the live servers, will be RPed as a hardcore Marxist.

Question..how many here actually make a forum post to inform Blizz of any bugs/glitches? Given that there isn't an actual report thing in the Beta itself...

Behold! http://mop.wowhead.com/item=84867#modelviewer

The MoP PvP offhands (purchasable with both honor and conquest points) are high-rez and very sexy battle horns. Considering all classes (I think?) can equip off-hands, reckon that's a score for us orcses in terms of RP props.

There's plenty of other sexy armor and weapons, but I haven't seen these discusses anywhere (probably because WoWhead forgot to link them in their PvP gear coverage).

Proof that offhand weapons -can- in fact be quite sexy-looking or useful in RP instead of weirdly looking rotating or vibrating devices! Nice find.

As Koz said. More cool-looking off-hands please!
