[...] I even suggested that I was Q’ing to the power of Q, or as Rip would say, Qubed! [...]

@ixobelle: I’ll trade you 3 of our polymorph forms for one of your Druid forms…

Mmmm which one to choose….

Flying I think… a Gnome with wings would look like Cupid!

mages get 37 flavors of “sheep” but every male tauren druid becomes the exact same cat or bear or turkey or tree.

SCANDAL!

@Euripedes: I was trying to come up with something… Qubed rocks… and Q DIMENSIONAL… Well I think there are some Engineering goggles that will suit just fine.

@Rhii: lol, Do I? Happy to hear you are proud to be a Mage… wondering why this humble Gnome would make you feel so.

@Deloimoi: I don’t think we are the worst… but us Mages have a reputation for QQ (to the point of Qubed), and I had to get me a little piece of that pie… albeit in a silly way….

But you do have to ask… 9 versions of the same spell… all cosmetic changes… It’s cute, and I did call for it a while back (joking, honestly), but I figure real positive changes to 8 other spells, not just throwing a Critter skin over an existing spell, would be a lot more palatable to Mages.

So come on Blizz… Buff Droods and Gnome Mages!

“pages of buffs for other classes”

I agree with your point about mages (but I don’t agree that you really need buffs in the first place), but as mainly a resto druid I really need to stop you here. On our pages of buffs, we got:

Our spell costs doubled
Our mana regen halved
Our crit chance halved
Needed GCDs to be useful doubled

And feral:
Our health bonus halved
Our armor bonus halved

So yes, mages haven’t gotten the best of attention, but you are not nearly getting the worst.

Q to the power of Q!

Would you call that… Qubed?
Eh? Eh?

It’s QQ like you’ve never seen it before… Q DIMENSIONAL.
