The Auctioneer site says it's going to be 2 weeks before they release a 2.0 compatible version.
This is the worst news ever. Now how am I supposed to fleece the market for all its worth in the ensuing chaos of the patch?
-
I assume that this is going to kill all UI mods, too, right?
I can't imagine playing without DAB and the multitude of other stuff.
-
Yup, theres been some big changes to the UI stuff, so all mods have to update.
-
Another good reason for me to wait! Yay! I hate playing without auctioneer. It's like being an amputee and trying to bench a few hundred pounds even though you're missing an arm.
-
Arg...its tough. Reconfiguring the addons, getting used to the new changes, dealing without particular addons. No auctioneer is like living in hell. The author really changed Bagnon...and not in a way I like. I wish it offered its own "classic" mode.
But I did see a druid in Tree of Life form, which is kinda cool. You know, if you want to be a fucking healbot. Screw that noise, I'm going down feral so I can Mangle shit.
-
Haha yeah I was fearl up until 56 I wasn't happy about the damage I was doing so i rolled a rogue and respec'ed my druid to resto. Which means I have to find all new int leather gear for her.
-
Yea I was using like 20-25 addons, mostly small stuff. Now I've got 3 installed:
CT_Core (main CT mod)
CT_Unitframes (adds health/mana text to unit frames nad target class)
WitchHunt (spell alert when an enemy is casting something)
-
Well, I got that bag mod to behave the old way. Plus I installed the Auctioneer alpha. Not going to do too much major on it until its final, but at least I have item prices again. Makes it easy when your bags are full and some cool loot drops you know whats the one thing you can drop without losing much money.
I felt so naked without those 2 mods. And MonkeyQuest. And Perl Classic Frames. Now I just need AutoProfit and I'll be all set.

I thought the new patch has built in spell alert now doesn't it?
-
I dont know what the spell alert does, but the built in thing will display your target enemy's cast bar. I checked it out with the shormhides in the barrens. Shows the cast bar and whats being cast. Doesn't work with Perl yet, so I don't really notice.
-
WitchHunt will put text in the middle of the screen (I have it set to be somewhat large). It will be something along the lines of:
*Shortstuff: Polymorph Turtle*
It's a good way to alert you to someone casting a spell without you having to watch your target frame all the time. It can also alert you to spells being cast by somethign other than your current target, though I have mine set to only show it from my target.
My main reason I got it was so I know when to kick on Kel'Thuzad, but I guess the built in enemy casting bar would work just fine for that.
I really need to find a CooldownCount type mod (cooldown numbers on your skill icons), and something to automatically put on my mount gear when I mount up. It's hell trying to connect to any mod sights though.
-
Heh... this may be somewhat coincidental, but I do happen to know a mage by the name of shorttstuff. He transferred from Kel'Thuzad to Executus a couple months ago.
I wonder if that's who you're talking about :P
-
lol no, I just came up with the name randomly haha.
