RIP WAR

And as an official last post to anyone who may wander here from time to time...

Rest in Peace WAR.

I may have not played you much towards the end but Warhammer is still the game I've spent the most time on and loved the most.  I met so many friends on it and wish that the golden days could've lasted longer than they did.

On December 18, 2013 Warhammer Online will close its doors forever.

I can only hope that they'll release a non online version or something so I can do quests by myself and reminiscence about the good times.

If anyone who still reads this would like to add me on Facebook feel free to tell me your name in the comments and I'll add you.

Sometimes I wish that instead of playing WAR all day I'd have socialized, made friends, and went on dates.  But now that everything worked out and the game is coming to an end and I look back on all of my experiences playing WAR I wouldn't take back any of it.

I'll miss you WAR.

I really will.

I typed this up months and months ago before I quit. I'll post it for old time's sake.

I made this post a loooong time ago.  Right after I made the first "Good Idea for New Content and stuffs"  I'm never going to finish it obviously since I no longer play WAR and haven't for almost a year now.  But I'll post it anyways.  Just for old time's sake.

It's not finished.  Sorry.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Who's feeling Nostalgic? I am!
Who just read every post I've ever made because of said Nostalgia? I did!

After reading through all of my posts I've decided that this blog was always missing one thing: cowbell Kittehs and that thing would be length! All of my posts so short, so insignificant!
And at the same time all of that Nostalgia makes you resub to Warhammer Online because you really miss the good ol' days where you loathed to be rr 70 so you could be in full warlord and rr 80 was a long way away.  Sadly, those days will never come back, but after looking after over the years of Warhammer we all see that the game was missing one thing (Aside from funding, staff, breaks from EA, etc): Content!! 
Do you see how the word "Content" stands out? That is the beauty of the internet things, you can make certain words stick out and look meaningful! Potatoes! Carrots!

Which one of those do you want now? I think the potatoes seem more fulfilling at this moment in time, as they are bolded!

But enough of that, I get off topic very easily, as you can see by the title of this post, this will be yet another patch that should be taken into consideration by Mythic! Here we goooo...

1.4.4 was a major success (Why wouldn't it be) and now we are back.. bringing you not 1.4.5 (Too cliche, we're hipsters now) but instead 1.6.0!! (1.5.0 was also too cliche). Yes! Now instead of telling you a summary in this sentence, we're going to lay it on you slowly so you don't get too excited, we will tell you each new feature over the course of the notes, hooray!

SCENERIO SHAKE-UP:

The following is the new Scenerio Line up:

Tier 1:

• Eternal Citadel (Still)
• Not Nordenwatch
• Gates of Ekrund
• Not Nordenwatch
• Khaine's Embrace
• Still Not Nordenwatch

Tier 2: 

• Eternal Citadel (Best SC evar)
• Not Nordenwatch
• Gates of Ekrund
• Not... Mourkain Temple
• Phoenix Throne 

Tier 3:

• All Scenerios have been taken out of tier 3, like.. seriously, it's not like they're going to pop anyways, saves us some coding, bro!

Tier 4:

• Eternal Citadel (Get over it)
• Not Nordenwatch
• Gates of Ekrund
• Caledor Woods
• Phoenix Throne
• STILL NOT NORDENWATCH!!

New Content: #1

WOWWWOWOW! Introducing, the autotune your character!! (Sponsored by T-Pain since we're a big shot game now)

Is your character's voice and war shouts lame? Do they lack the spice you want in the game of WAR? Well now for only 600 gold you can buy the autotune microphone (offhand wep)

Now whenever your character yells, it sounds like the autotune gods reached their hands down and made you sound beautiful! (Or fake, whichever you prefer)

Now your character can pass gas and make it sound like Dubstep. (No really, ever heard dubstep? You could make that exact same sound with a fart and autotune)

COMBAT AND CAREERS:

We are introducing changes to ALL classes.  So rejoice! REJOICE!

Archmage

Bug Fisxes: Lol. Typo.  I meant "Fixes." So.. that's been fixed!

Balance Changes: Last patch we introduced the ability "Isha's Pregnant!!!" It's been 6 months later so we're now also adding the ability "Nausea" which you WILL use no matter what. In fact, it's passive, you get a permanent -100 penalty to all stats.  

Blackguard

Bug Fixes: All Blackguard helms were not showing the appropriate graphic.  It now correctly shows a traffic cone.

Balance Changes: The entire Mechanic for Blackguard has been revamped.  Because the Parental Counselors of America has been complaining about negativity in today's movies, TV shows, and games.. We have taken away the "Hatred" mechanic and replaced it with "Love."  It is the exact same as "hate" except it's.. "love." Peace!

Black Orc

Bug Fixes: Since release, this class has been talking like uneducated big green brutes! This has always been a bug we have meant to fix but we were always too busy to fix! The Black Orcs now have a nice British accent when they talk, instead of the one they've had. 

Balance Changes: New ability called "Anarchy" added, when used the Black Orc scraps the "Plan" mechanic.

Bright Wizard

Bug Fixes: Silly String shooting was a stupid idea, makes your character go blind, Bright wizards now shoot Spaghetti noodles.

Balance Changes: When making your Bright Wizard, you can now give yourself a preset character that looks and sounds exactly like Carrot Top. 

Choppa

Bug Fixes: OH MY GOSH THERES A SPIDER ON MY SCREEN.  It's gone now though.

Balance Changes: In fixing the Black Orc speech bug, we also are balancing the choppa's voice to sound like a scottish accent.  We need to get over the "Green people are inferior" crap. 

Chosen

Bug Fixes: None! Yes! This one is right!

Balance Changes: Some of the awesome design of their armor made the other classes feel inferior, and here at Bioware Mythic EA (Who even runs this anymore?) our main goal is towards equality.  So we're going to rob the chosen of his armor, and give him some new cloth looking armor. How will this affect balance you ask? No clue.

Disciple of Khaine

Bug Fixes: Fixed a bug that was preventing Khaine's Embrace (group heal) from healing for the appropriate amount, Khaine's Embrace will now heal all party members within 100 feet for 7000 hit points. 

Balance Changes: A new ability called "Pay child support" has been added.  This steadily takes off 70 gold per month from your Disciple of Khaine character towards the payment of Isha's baby in which Khaine is the "Baby Daddy" (I use cool slang now, homies)

Engineer

Bug Fixes: The ability "Nuclear Bomb" was not working correctly.  It will now also cause all zones to become as dry as Land of the Dead.

Balance Changes: Added new ability called "Minimum Wage." Our goal here at EAMythicware is to also make the game as realistic as possible, so we're giving these construction workers this ability that gives the class 5 silver when used.  Can only be used once every 72 hours.

Ironbreaker

Bug Fixes: Rick Astley will never give you up. I just thought I should let you know. This is also a filler space because we actually don't feel like fixing anything for this class. 

Balance Changes: Made them taller. Why? Who cares. Now they're taller. What's done is done.

Knight of the Blazing Sun

Bug Fixes: SURPRISE! We fixed a tooltip issue that we're still not going to reveal to you

Balance Changes: Added ability called "Rage Quit" in which the Knight of the Blazing Sun gets rolled by a premade, then proceeds to the forums to tell everyone why they do not like what has just happened. Locks you out of the game for 23 hours. (Not 24, 24 would be too mainstream. We here at MythicEAware are hipsters too)

Shadow Warrior

Bug Fixes: Festerbomb now correctly deals 5 damage.

Balance Changes: Added ability called "Arrow to the Knee" in which they shoot an arrow towards the knee of the opponent, and the opponent must become a warcamp guard from now on. Because... they're no longer an adventurer... like in... Skyrim...

An Official "Goodbye"

Well, as I haven't been making blog posts lately it pretty much goes without saying that I'm not as active as I used to be. :(
So this is pretty much my official goodbye from blogging and super active pew pew playing.
I actually still check my blog stats and see how much views I get every now and again, and I'm surprised to say it's still over 1,000 in the past few months that I have been inactive, which flatters me. Whether you're looking for pictures of cats or just... looking cause you're bored I appreciate all the people who have come to my blog. I really honestly didn't think I would get over 500 views but hey, adding a cat here and there (particularly an obese kitteh) will boost views a bit, right? :-P

I would thank certain people for making my Warhammer experience extra awesome, but the list is too long and I'd undoubtedly leave out people that really deserve it (after all, everyone has made my experience better, and I can't remember everyone). And like... who cares what I think :P

I'll still be on Warhammer doing maybe a scenerio or two, but if you happen to see me in game, it will be on a t1-t3 alt whose name ends with "oftru".. most likely.

And as I say goodbye, I shall give you all a parting picture.

Very random indeed, but it is my obese kitteh and a turtal. A very ninja turtal

Oh, I hit 80

Quite awhile ago.. dont know why I never made a post for it til now :P

Oh, I hit 80

Quite awhile ago.. dont know why I never made a post for it til now :P

The most awesomest bug evar in the history of awesomest bugs.

I decided to take a scenerio right after I entered a Thanquol's Incursion. Worst. Idea. Evar.

First, whenever you leave TI you get the exit scenerio screen, which was stuck on my screen in the scenerio, so I couldn't see anything.

THEN as I was trying to navigate my way trying to avoid the stupid screen I fell.. and became stuck where I fell.

Woot! Made it 2 feet then got stuck, after waiting for the scenerio to end (Which was annoyingly long considering it was a Reikland Factory SC) I found myself in a new instance of TI.. stuck inside.

No matter how many times I press Yes, it does not let me out, so I am stuck in TI trying to find a way out.

I guess I'll need to wait the 20 minutes for my book of binding to cool down.

Most Wonderful Armor sets! (FILLER POST ;-D)

The new T7 appearance armor is actually good I think. I apologize because I have nothing to say, as stated in my last post I an tired of these filler posts that aren't funny or even slightly entertaining.  Which is why I have raised poll times to 2 weeks rather than one. Huzzah.

But yeah.. I like the new armor sets, but I want to see DoK's ;-D

A Srs Biznizz Miffic Intarview

Hello! After an angry gobbo named Thraz posted an interview supposedly containing false information I have decided that I will actually give you a SERIOUS interview with 100% real things and real quotes and stuff.

Thehealeroftru: Hello, how are you this fine day?

Mythic: We are good, what brings you here to wherever we are.

Thehealeroftru: I wanted to ask you thinks about Warham-

Mythic: NOT SO LOUD BRO!

Thehealeroftru: Oh, why not?

Mythic: If we use the "W" word Games Workshop will sue us.

Thehealeroftru: Oh... Ok. I am sorry... I came here to ask you questions about your game.

Mythic: We'll do our best to answer them

Thehealeroftru: First off.. in the fake interview the angry gobbo said that you were introducing some "T7" armor just for alternate appearance, is this true?

Mythic: That actually is true, we will show you pictures of them right now.

Thehealeroftru: What class will you be showing us first?

Mythic: This armor happens to be for the chosen, I am sure it will be very appealing to the masses

Mythic: This is Kai's pet doggy trying on the smaller version of the armor.

Thehealeroftru: IT'S SO CUTE

Mythic: Yes, very much so.

Thehealeroftru: Can I see the other classes?

Mythic: NO! They aren't done yet.

Thehealeroftru: Oh, so what about new content, will that be added to the game.

Mythic: What do you mean

Thehealeroftru: You know, like new stuff to do?

Mythic: ..umm.. Yeah that might not happen.

Thehealeroftru: Oh dear, and why not?

Mythic: All of the money we make is going to SW:TOR.

Thehealeroftru: I am sorry for your misfortune

Mythic: The head of EA won't do anything until Carrie does what he says

Thehealeroftru: What? Do what?

Mythic: He wants to play a good game of Call of Duty with Carrie...

Thehealeroftru: So what's the problem?

Mythic: He has a PS3.  Carrie has an X-box, ever read Twitter? What else do you want to know about the game?

Thehealeroftru: A big issue amongst the players playing the game is that we want Premade/Pug to be seperate in scenerios.

Mythic: LOL sux4you

Thehealeroftru: Can you make me RR 100?

Mythic: No, we cannot make anyone in Warhammer RR-

-------------------------------------------------------

The interview was cut short because Games Workshop burst through the windows at hearing the name of their franchise used.

In other news: Game has no news that needs reviewed, and I don't post about my characters because no one wants to know about my characters.  So that is the reason I have been dry on posts as of late. :D

I finally hit 40

My WH hit 40 and I dyed him purple and orange :D

He very pretty

Poll Results: Should the Lockout Timer be reduced?

Yes, to 4 hours: 13%

Yes, to no limit: 17%

No it's fine the way it is: 30%

No, it needs increased: 21%

Perhaps, give me $100 and I'll decide, maybe: 17%

I don't have the money for that, I sorry. :-P

Lockout Timer: A PSA

Every 8 hours...

• 185,281 babies are born
• The U.S. increases it's debt by 1.2 Billion dollars
• Lindsey Lohan steals a necklace
• Casey Anthony murders a baby
• Michael Vick kills a dog
• Adam Lambert changes his sexuality
• Neovolk gets his account banned
• A 14 year old playing Black Ops says the word "pussy" 7,273 times.
• Ke$ha aquires a new disease
• You are locked out of destro/order

Hello there, Mythic, every 8 hours things happen, and they're not always good things.  I am requesting that you please change the lockout timer to like.. I don't know, 4 hours.  Because 8 hours is too long, not only that but the timer is also buggy, and I've had it not start until I've played about 4 hours in, so instead of 8 hours it was actually 4 hours.  Hell, sometimes when I play my Order character's it doesn't even start... that is until I log out. Played 6 hours, check timer, oh hey, the timer is at 8 hours.

The following picture is of a player who has realized he still has a billion years to play on his lockout timer.

Mwahaha! You thought I wouldn't fit in a cat in this post but I did! But this cat's story is quite sad, he decided he wanted to try a Warrior Priest but ended up not liking the class, so he tried to go back to destro but... HE STILL HAD 7 HOURS ON HIS LOCKOUT TIMER. /gasp

3 hours left would be a reasonable time don't you think?  It would not seem like a large gap like 7 hours does.

But really.. I would suggest that the lockout timer's timer be changed to like.. 4 hours instead of 8 hours, I think 8 hours is too long.

36: THE DEATH RANK

I dinged 36 on my witch hunter today, this is my 4th WH to hit 36, the other 3 never advanced beyond this rank... DEATH RANK.

I got tons of exp today because of the tons of scenerio pops I was getting.  It's odd, I got one pop in the past two weeks ive been in t3, then today I got at least 10.  Weird stuff.

Random Random and more Random

The past few days have been pretty uneventful for warhammer and myself.  The big 'WHATS THE NEWS GONNA BE' passed as we all found out that the news was in fact "We're still here, trolol"

So I really have nothing to say.  But my Sorc hit 40 I guess, chat log ftw.

oh and in all randomness...

Minor Let Down

 New Content isn't much of a "big" announcement.  But at least I don't need to pay Eka 100g.

EDIT: I heard news a good player Xylophone (Known on Karak Norn, Karak Azgal, And Gorfang) was banned for item duping, which everyone who knows him claims he is innocent.  Xylo is a good player, I know he is an honest player as well and he would never item dupe.  What I think happened is he accepted a duped item without knowing it and was banned for this "offense."  Please email Dispute@Warhammeronline.com and say he is innocent.  Remember, this isn't coming from a player who played alongside him and had good times, this is coming from a player who had his butt kicked hard daily by this player and made me almost rage quit at some points because he was so good, he is a very nice guy and an honest player.  Thank you in advance if you appeal this to the email I linked.

Big news tomorrow?!?!

Here is a list of things I think it could possibly be:

• 3rd faction
• Free to Play announcement
• New "content"
• Kitten Mounts
• The screening of "Snakes on a Plane" in both the IC and Altdorf.
• Requirements to give everyone the Coolio hair style in game

if it's not one of these I'm giving Ekaslime 100g.

Happy 4th of July for those of you in the U.S.

Theres a hidden stash of fireworks in Destruction's respawn point in College of Corruption. 

FIND THEM AND PEW PEW.

Happy 4th of July for people who live in the U.S..  If you live elsewhere, then happy Monday.

I sorry

I am going on a trip for the fourth of July but will be back next week, I had a good idea for a post today to let it off but my dad was caught in a bad accident this day.  So I had no time to do anything of use.

Edit: And if you're wondering he is unhurt, and was the Black Mazda the site speaks of, which is actually grey, person at the scene was colorblind I guess :-P

Thehealeroftru's Guide To Losing in College of Corruption

Hello! I am as you know Thehealeroftru and I will be guiding you through the new scenerio introduced for this live event, College of Corruption, or is it THE College of Corruption.

Either way, We will be looking at it from destro's perspective.

As you run in you will be at the bottom of the tower, allowing Order to hold the stairs and bomb you as much as they can, more RDPS = more winning for order, and you as destro can do nothing about it other than squirm, and spam emotes.

As you can see by looking in this SC, there is also a very large bolt of fire or laser beam or something in the middle, But I don't think that is very important. Oh... wait....

WOW! Isn't it cool that Order can bomb you from above through the little hole it comes through? Isn't this a nice feature? 
"Oh no Tru, please don't tell me we can attack back."

NOPE!!

No, you cannot shoot through the ground good sir, especially if you are MDPS, because that is not what your class is supposed to do.

Now, you might be saying, "Well Tru, why don't you just walk up the stairs and fight them?"

Assuming they do not kill you before you even reach the stairs you find the stairs and the doorway to the 2nd floor to be... well...Small.

AOE REJOICE!!  Screw you tanks, screw you single target dps, GIMME SOME AOE BROSEPH!
Yes the stairs are very narrow, and please, when there's a fire in the building walk down them in an orderly fashion.
Of course it makes sense that BWs are superior to all in this scenerio, it is the Bright Wizard College amirite?
"Well, Tru,surely mythic planned away around this and a back entrance"

Oh yes! Indeed!  They did, in your spawn there is a portal to the right that transports you to a secret location and...

MOAR RANGED!!!! Forget the Witch Elves, forget the.. anything other than a sorc. 

"Tru, you just said that order have the advantaged of above, and now destro is above them?"

Yes we are above, however my poorly drawn skill for ranged only reaches 100 feet, from that far back from the battle we can only watch them rampage down the stairs and bomb our allies from above.

"Ok.. but aren't there the new play as a monster things that can help you?"
OH I ALMOST FORGOT!!

This new scenerio gives you the ability to be... this thing, it's like something of aqshy I think I don't really know or care.  However, at the sides of the main rooms there are altars that you right click on and it makes you a not so shiny fire guy.  You get five new abilities as this fire guy, only one I really found worth using.  The first one is spammableand hits your target for (according to the tooltip) 600 or so damage.  The second ability unleashes those Aqshy Sprites that kind of do nothing it seems to wherever you are standing. That third ability is supposedly an aoe attack that does like 1.5k damage to the enemy, but whenever I use it it doesn't seem to do nearly that much, maybe it's because they're getting healed or something.  The fourth ability makes allies near you (up to 6) powered up, I don't quite remember and I'm too lazy to go check, I think it was an alright ability if I recall.  The last ability ressurects EVERYBODY near you, and they respawn at your corpse.  I have not yet used this ability, I assume it kills you :(

I will continue to trudge through this SC over the weekend because I feel the need to complete everything.

By the way, sorry for lack of posts lately, leveling up my WH and the only thing I can post about while leveling up a char is how pretty t3 is and how I will never get my sovereign.

Dear Mythic...

Dear Mythic.. Why did you put this area of random champions and heroes behind a PQ in Chrace?

It make no sense good friends! Well you know what..

Dear Mythic.. why do you have any of these Hero/Champion and Random Heros?  I mean they're all over the map :(  It's not like you get anything if you kill them.

And this isn't all of em I've found, just the ones I've taken screenshots of in the past.  Who can forget the random Hero High Elf in Avelorn, or the Hero Treekin in caledor.  I do all the quests so they can't be for a quest.  And they're usually not for a tome unlock (Other than the Hydra above... I just wanted to show him) so Mythic.. WHY THEY THERE??!!? They all over teh map in all teh zones!!

Dear Mythic.. Why isn't this mine blowing up?

I found it off the coast of barak varr while exploring a day or so ago and it didn't esplode. and I was sad.  Very sad indeed.  Why it no esplode?

That is all the questions I have for you Mythic today..

PS: Dear Mythic.. WHY IS MY CAPE GRAPHIC SO AWESOME!??!
