The good folks over at Project Lore have noticed that Blizzard did a major revamp to its World of Warcraft Armory site and the changes are quite revealing to say the least:
“…Now the new Armory goes a bit beyond that; not only can you check out a persons gear, you can check to see if they have cleared that heroic before, or any heroic, or if they have ever earned an emblem of heroism. You can even see if what raids they’ve done, how much gold they’ve earned, and how much their biggest heal has been for. It’s all amazing really…”
Crazy news! It’s going to be plain as day to my guild that I’m terrible at raising cash and that I apparently don’t farm enough raid resources as I should be! Is this level of transparency a cause for concern? Maybe it depends if you’re a casual player trying to get buy or a gold farmer whose keeping it on the down low… Hey! How’d you earn only 15 gold yesterday and today it says you earned 1,000 gold? Aha!
Update: Anyone notice that the Armory no longer shows your profile with the buffs you had when you last logged off? Ugh, I sure don’t feel very adequate without the Aspect of the Hawk buff on me!
