@Berbix: By "trade goods" they mean only the items such as Heavenly Shards and Embersilk Cloth sold by the <Justice Trade Goods> vendor. Gear does not count as "trade goods."

My wife was not previously having issues with disconnecting due to zoning.... but since today's patch, she has disconnected every single time she has taken a zeppelin to another zone.

@Abould: That has to do with your graphics card and Directx 9 or 11. Make sure you graphics card is update and you know which DirectX it supports then go into the Advanced tab in options and select the one you need... Should clear that right up.

NPCs should no longer be floating... unless they're meant to float.

So I reported this yesterday, patch loaded today, I just ported back to Tranquil Wash and the NPCs were treading air again.

(got an in-game mail response, but no Mail boxes in Vash'jir means I'm not reading it til I've cleared out the zone)

@Zoborg: Yes, the box shows up after you put in your password.

@Zoborg: blizz announced that this is intended as they plan on increasing the functionality for the Authenticator in the future. Most likely, this means that it will start working like the mobile version where you only have to authenticate when accessing your account from a PC you don't normally use.

Still no solution to the pushback problem with warlocks? I guess the death knight rune thing was just too important for you to care about warlocks

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this but the random ports to gys after bgs is a pain in the a**. It varies between instant to about a minute or two after I get out of a bg, I get randomly ported to the nearest gy......

how about fixing the issues with the random ass lag spikes....nothing says raid wipe like your MT healer suddenly locking up. Oh how about the BS with auction house not responding to my searches just sitting there saying searching till the cows come home

@Diancècht: Have you considered the lag may be the result of AddOns and not the game? I've not had any issues with lag spikes, though it may be server related (but I somewhat doubt it).
