Subject: Argent Dawn Pots Changed? |
| |
Ever since this most recent patch, I have not gotten one single major healing or major mana pot from the Argent Dawn vendors. Did they take them out of the game? Was it mentioned in the patch because I did not notice it.
Also, i logged in when the servers came up yesterday and was at the tirisfal glade AD vendor and nothing, so I am pretty sure they took them out.
Please comment...
Also. If they did take them out, whether they added it to patch notes or not, why did they take it out? I worked hard to get AD revered so I could buy the pots, so I would like to continue to buy them.
(I doubt it but this could just be my server having a problem, Illidan)[ post edited by Morifen ]

The potions were removed with the recent change to show all items available with Argent Dawn reputation. Since the potions were not reputation specific, they are no longer offered from the vendor.

I'm going to explain this a little further.
The way faction vendors fundamentally work was changed in 1.7. As they stand now, any item that requires faction to purchase must also have a faction requirement to use. You may have noticed this effect on the Argent Dawn-only Enriched Manna Biscuits.
Major Healing/Mana Potions do not have a faction requirement to use, and as such could not be offered on these vendors anymore in their current state. While the option was open to make a pair of Argent Dawn-specific potions that did precisely the same thing, they would not stack with normal Major Health/Mana Potions and thus cause more clutter both in inventory and on hotbars. The designers decided against such an implementation.
Thus, as it stands, this is a conscious design choice and a switch in the way faction vendors function at the core of things. They cannot be added back at this time.
No more "O RLY" Bird. I'm serious.
