Fuck The Mages

Well, the 1.9 patch went live a couple of days ago and it sucks ass. First and foremost there was the pet pursuit speed normalization. Yes, now a turtle will run to a target as fast as a wolf or a tiger. All in the name of "game balance."

Fuck that fucking shit. I got a goddamn tiger because they're supposed to be faster than fucking turtles. And now I have to sit on my ass waiting an eternity for my now slow-ass cat to get to a mob before I can start firing. Bullshit. Bull-fucking-shit.

Yes, sure, everybody agrees that the Alterac Valley frostwolf and the Zul'Gurub bat were way too fast. Slow them down and you've fixed the problem, right? After all, those were the only ones who could actually chase down epic mounts (though by the way all the other ignorant fucks were whining about it, EVERY pet could chase down an epic mount).

But could Blizzard just tame those two instances down and leave it at that? No. No, because those fucking mages and priests didn't want to be chased down by a pet as they were fleeing a fight.

"ZOMG, your pet is chasing me! hax! I should be able to run away from a tiger! overpowered!"

Our pets are described by the game manual to be useful for chasing down fleeing mobs or players. Now they can't even do that. Now they've been nerfed because there are too many mages and rogues and priests out there who can't play for jack shit, who suck ass, who should quit life, and want the game developers to repatch the game because they just suck too much.

So thanks to the incessant whining of the clothies, my pet has, for all intents and purposes, become useless.

Fucking mages.
