Same, and I'm just not a PvE player anymore. I made a full switch to PvP a while back, the only reason I do heroics anymore is for the daily for the emblems to by Furious gear.
But yeah, I know how the system works.

:P maybe I didn't worded it correctly, I'll try again.
when you queue for a random heroic, for the first time on a day, u get 2 emblems of frost, and from that point foward, EVERY TIME on that day you queue for a random heroic you get 2 emblems of triumph.
wich means that every single instance will reward 2 extra emblems (as long as you queue for it using the random heroic option) and hell u get 2 extra emblems for doign a reg instance too.
given that you can be full t9 with triumph emblems......
the only slots that can't be geared with triumph emblems are the weapon, bracers, boot, and belt.
other than that, the rest of the toon will be geared with some serious gear.
and moreco, if u're 100% comited to pvp, then yhea, getting back to pve will be hard, but dude it's worth it, ICC is gonna be EPIC, my spider sence is feeling it.

It will be, I just can't see myself being able to raid it hardcore, my schedual dosn't really give me time for that. Belive me, though, I've tried.
EDIT: If anything, though, I'll return to it just to get Ivincible.

No, you worded it fine. it's just I had no idea why the topic jumped from ICC Architecture to emblems... I got confused.

=( my schedule won't allow me to raid it hardcore either, in fact, I'm assuming I'll be downing the lich king at best 4 months after ICC is live on the realms.
but one thing is fer sure ,I WILL kill the lich king, that much is certain.
and the matchmaking system of the random heroic is so perfect that just investing like 3 hours a night will allow me to farm an obscene amount of emblems to get geared for this monumental raid.
even if I only doit on 10man reg, what's 100% sure is that I WILL kill the lich king.

and on the nerubian architecture, I miss it.
back on vainilla wow, every site with scourge had the distictive nerubian architecture (such as eastern plagelands, and specifically the areas arround stratholme)
but on WOTLK it seems arthas dropped the nerubian style seen on warcraft 3 and on vainilla, and instead embraced the style of sauron.
seriously, all of icecrown seems like pulled out of mordor, but with blueish hue instead of reddish. and a glacier instead of a volcano.

Probably because of the different climates. The Gates may be similar to the Black Gate, but the interior of Mordor will always be Burning Steppes in my eyes.

True, but I'd like to see a bigger role of them. There isn't even a nerubian boss in Icecrown.

True, I'm still holding out that Anub and Kel will be a surprise, untested boss - like Yogg-saron or Alganon.

Actually, Rankkorr, it's only the first random heroic you do that gives you two Frost Emblems.

Oh yeah, but only the first random dungeon you do in a day gives the extra reward.

Oh yeah, but only the first random dungeon you do in a day gives the extra reward.
actually addams, what I read was like this.
first heroic random instance you do in the day, will give 2 frost emblems.
and after you get said frost emblems, any other dungeons done via the random heroic system will reward 2 emblems of triumph.
the one where only the first random in the day yields rewards in in the reg instances, only the first random reg WOTLK instance done in the day will give 2 triump.
it's on the patch notes bro' wait up I'll link them.
note that this only applyes when a RANDOM heroic is done, if you do specific heroics using the new LFD system you won't get any extra emblems other than what the bosses drop.
but whenever you use the random heroic system, it will allways give 2 emblems for free, 2 frost per day, and then 2 triumph for every other random heroic done on that same day.

here it is, taken from the patch notes on this very same website.
The Heroic Wrath of the Lich King Daily Random Dungeon option will award two Emblem of Frost no more than once a day
on this we agree, only 2 frost emblems per day, no more no less.
The normal Wrath of the Lich King Daily Random Dungeon option will award two Emblem of Triumph no more than once a day.
on this we agree, 2 triumph emblems on reg instances per day, no more no less.
Continuing to complete Wrath of the Lich King
Heroic
instances using the Daily Random Dungeon option will award players two additional Emblems of Triumph
each time
this is the real kicker, after you get your shiny 2 frost emblems, any other random heroic done in that same day, will give 2 triumph emblems and 22g EVERY TIME :P
as you can see, gearing up for ICC is gonna be obcenely easy.

Ah, it's possible, I just know what I've been reading on wow.com. I know they said if you keep doing random dungeons, you can do the same ones over and over again, aka nexus and the like, as long as it's from the random system. Didn't realize they were handing out extra triumphs thought.

whoa hold on there barnaby jones =O
repeating heroics? now that's news to me, I'm gunna read the patch notes again to see if it's true, because as far as I know, heroics still have a lockout of 24 hours, regardless if they were done using the random dungeon sistem or not.
on the PTR; after testing the system out, a boss downed on an heroic will still save you to that place, and once the place is completed, you still gotta wait for the lockout.
I know they are making the game easier, but being able to do any heroic multimple times per day even if chosen at random seems like too much for me.......
