The Queue: Rain

by Adam Holisky May 9th 2013 at 11:00AM

It's raining today in Minneapolis. Kinda nice -- no snow and the complete hellish weather we've had the past month.

What a nice day!

Daniel asked:

Do you think the MoP talent structure has been successful? Will 6.0 be a continuation of that way of talenting, such as Cata being just a modification of Wrath's talent structure, or should we expect another overhaul?

Thanks to tumblr for introducing me to the Armenian pop singer Sirusho. I can't get this song out of my head, despite not understanding a word of it. This video in particular has been praised for featuring some wonderful Armenian design, and it's easy to see why!

Ron2 asked:

What's your favorite class and/or race for a gathering alt? Horde or Alliance, Mining, Herbing, and/or Skinning, I leave that up to you.

Queue, I really don't want to go to work today. I want to stay home and just nap with my cats while drinking coffee and tea.

In fact, on my way to work, I think I'm going to stop at a Starbucks. Just thought you should know. Tell me what kind of drink I should get.

Thanks!

Logan asked:

I'm looking at getting a new computer, a lot of people say that a desktop is the only way to go, but gaming laptops look pretty nice. Are there good laptops?

JeffLaBowski asked:

Now that Mists has been out for a while, what would you have changed storywise? From the way the Pandaren were introduced to how both major plot lines were dealt with? I know a lot was changed in Beta. Do you think it played out as well as was planned?

Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Mike Sacco will be your host today.

This weekend is/was the Golden Weekend in The Secret World, so I played through the latest content update and got to hang out with my favorite character: posh immortal trade-prince mummy Saïd.

Chrth asked:

If the Celestials hadn't opened the gates to the Vale, would the Mogu have gotten in?

The mogu were, in fact, already in the Vale. One of the first quests you complete for the Golden Lotus has you blowing up a cave that the mogu were using to send reinforcements into the Vale, probably through an ancient network of tunnels (or the product of heavy mogu labor in recent years).

I've yet to survive a full game of the excellent Spelunky, but videos like this make me want to persevere.

RyanStansifer asked:

Which source is the correct source for triggering the achievement "Mount Parade?" Battle.net or the in-game mount pane?

It triggers based on how many mounts your specific logged-in character has access to. The number on the Armory counts all mounts, whereas the one in-game takes faction and class into account.

Look at that owl. Just look at it.

MatthiasA.Sartor asked:

After 4 or 5 long years (all of them hinging on stupid stupid EotS and AV) I finally got my violet proto. Now what should I do, I feel empty lol.

That's usually the point where I find more impossible things to do. Try farming for the Ashes of A'lar, or the Fiery Warhorse's Reins, or any of the other many mounts that are a bit harder to get. After all, there's a 200 mount achievement coming up soon!

I think today is a hunter day, time to get him to 90.

And thus, this song.

Daniel asked:

When 5.4 comes out, do you think the Raid Finder ilvl will be 490, considering that +10 has been the pattern so far, or do you think that since Throne LFR is 502 ilvl, it will be 500 to enter Orgirmmar LFR

Last night I discovered Nico Vega. What does that have to do with World of Warcraft? Absolutely nothing, but it's good music!

Nurpholomew asked:

Any chance we will see factions once again emoting their love for us at exalted as in BC? I absolutely love walking around having NPCs laud my awesomeness. Narcissistic? Maybe but for me it helps the immersion factor by quite a bit.

Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Adam Holisky (@adamholisky) will be your host today.

What is the Ancient McCurley? Is it a secret cup that you must drink out of? A ceremonial tool you must tool from? An old form of some sort of League of Legends?

There's only one way to find out ...

Maybe if we say his name three times he'll appear at BlizzCon, just like Beetlejuice.

Wrathofklublukhaaaaaan asked:

Why am I still stuck with School of Hard Knocks? Some dreadful old fashioned achievement that no one has been happy with for years and years -- I don't understand, please enlighten!

"I am nowhere. I am everywhere. I am the watcher, unseen."

Don't kill me if the elf in the picture above doesn't match the quote. You elf-vampires all look the same to me.

ATreck1937 asked:

Why doesn't Blizzard pick a different venue for Blizzcon? One that could accommodate a lot more people. It's more than obvious that they have the fan base to support it, given how quickly all the Blizzcon tickets sell out every time.

Or maybe he was a dragon-man. Or maybe he was just a dragon.

Hans-HenrikHagsted asked:

Are there any limits on the amount of virtual Blizzcon tickets they'll sell? I plan on buying virtual access when it is available. Perhaps sometime in the future I'll be able to afford the trip from Denmark to Anaheim, but not this year...

Nope, there's no limit on virtual tickets as far as we're aware. There were over a million people who bought them in 2011.

Probably been a while since I reminded you guys that Warpaint owns, so hey, Warpaint owns, y'all!

jmduarte asked:

Why people is assuming that the expansion ends in 5.4? If I remember correctly, Blizzard said that they wanted to speed up the patches launches (ha ha, that last sentence sounds fun), with shorter waiting time between launches and smaller patches like in Vanilla. Couldn't that mean that we could end in, perhaps, 5.12 or so?

Well, the expansion tends to end when we take out the final boss, and in this case Blizzard has been very clear: Garrosh is the final boss, and we fight him in 5.4. It's a reasonable assumption that's when the expansion will end! If it doesn't, the following patch will almost certainly not be a major content patch.

I just rewatched Beverly Hills Cop, so please enjoy the above sound and use as needed throughout your day.

richie.09 asked:

Is anyone else disappointed that Lorewalker Cho doesn't participate in any battles? Seeing him in the intro cinematic for Pandaria led me to believe that he would help us and have a role in fighting the Mogu. Instead, he just stands there and gives us a history lesson (In Mogu'shan Vaults).

That's not Cho in the intro cinematic; it's Chen Stormstout! Cho is a talker, not a fighter.

I'm reposting this awesome KISS image from Around Azeroth yesterday. It deserves a repost because of its amazingness.

Jordan asked:

Do y'all think we'll ever get the option to choose multiple races per faction? For example, one could roll a Broken instead of a Draenei, but simply start on the Isle with the same quests and gameplay as if starting a Draenei. This would take zero new coding effort, other than maybe implementing a few new animations for the Broken. Similarly, Forsaken could play one of those undead elf banshee women things.
