Can someone confirm does this patch contain Helm of the New Moon and Pearl Neckless from Willy in Strat Livve and Don Mauricio's Band of Domination from Scholo?

Nostalrused again

MC and Ony loot updated to post def nerf of 1.7

Half of the pre raid loot with def on it has been nerfed in accordance with 1.7 (Apparently this is supposed to be 1.5 though?)
Half of it has not been. (I.E. Draconian Deflector still at +15 def whereas Stonegrip gauntlets nerfed to +10)

Naglering still has no stamina or defense on it
Blackblade of Shahram is still 2.3 speed
Brigam Girdle still has Spirit on it and no 1% Hit
Deathbone set is still pre-1.4 greens etc (Apart from Chestplate, which has been nerfed to +17 defense)
Bloodmail set is still greens etc
Necropile is still greens etc

VAMBRACES OF THE SADIST HAVE +255 FIRE RESISTANCE

LOL

but most importantly

All of this +defense gear should not have been nerfed until patch 1.7 with ZG.

Nostalrius plese

Well, lots of messed up stuff in this patch it seems. Many items with weird, flawed stats (DM class trinkets, items with +sick amounts of fire resistance).

And for some reason the wsg rep rewards have been added but not the lvl 58-60 versions. Wtf.
And no AB rep rewards at all again. Even though it was stated some months ago that they would come with the AV patch.

Priest and warlock DM trinkets only +10 fr. res. Nothing else.

Dozens of vanilla servers out there all on 1.12. Why are you here?

He/she probably came here because the official Nostalrius website passes this off as a 1.12.1 server that is just withholding some endgame content temporarily....I probably wouldn't have rolled here if I had known that all of the item data was retarded, there weren't BG rep items, and quests were missing. Blizzard didn't release the item data in incremental patches because they thought "at first the items should be like this...then a few months later they should be like this....and then finally like this."

They changed items per patch because the game was a work in progress. Blizzard learned from their mistakes and fixed them. At some point, somebody at Blizzard was like "Whoa...wait a sec, casters actually don't need Agilility. Let's fire whoever came up with that idea and then fix this gear so that the game will be better." By trying to replicate things in the order that Blizzard did, all that we're doing is intentionally recreating Blizzard's mistakes. As cute of an idea as it is, I think that it is sort of a dumb practice to intentionally make mistakes.

Doing things this way doesn't make the experience more Blizzlike either. At no point in history was Vanilla WoW some weird hybrid with 1.12.1 skills/spells/talents, 1.4 item data and quests, and then some 1.6 and 1.7 battlegrounds half way implemented. Seriously, just give us 1.12.1 items and quests, and continue to release the raids incrementally.

This.
