Well, I don't think the whole arena points for gems is quite fair, any players who don't play the arena for fear of getting totally rolled by all the warriors and paladins should have a different way.

5 Emblems = 2 gems maybe?

And to make it possible for Hunters to get Gems, as we can't auto attack in the Arenas. Or anywhere indoors. Or on uneven terrain. Or from across doodads. Or near NPCs.

I thought this issue was localized to the cave area of drek/vann only?

And all Arenas.

And uneven ground. And the Dun Baldar Bridge. Shooting from outside to inside. Inside to outside. Near any kind of a wall.

Basically anywhere that's not a level open area, you can't auto attack.

Does this happen in the Nagrand FFA, or just in arenas. Either way I'm on my way to test this on my hunter.

Edit: So far I've confirmed that uneven ground causes autoshot to break. I was standing on the bridge in Halaa and it wouldn't work.

Edit2: Works in Nagrand FFA.

Edit3: Can you give more info for being near a wall, still trying to reproduce it.

Edit4: Confirmed to not be working in Blade's Edge Arena while on level floor. Also not working in Ruins of Lordaeron.

Edit5: Not working in Nagrand Arena either, which is strange since it worked in the FFA Arena.

Sorry, I've been AFK.

Trying to shoot from on a doodad will cause issues. Trying to shoot near walls that are not part of the landscape will cause issues (eg near a keep or tower or bunker). Trying to shoot indoors from outdoors.

Etc, etc.

It's a LoS issue, and I'm guessing that either Opti lets us shoot through walls or doesn't give us an auto attack in Arenas are the only options.

Alright I'm going to try to get the wall one to "work" for me. As for the second one, that's going to be a lot harder for me to test but I'll go out of my way to do it next time I do a WSG.

1) play 10 games.
2) win/lose
3) get points
4) buy gems
5) ????
6) profit


Gems do not quire you to be pro at arena, theyre not rating based, but rather point based.
If you have a 2v2 team, and a 3v3 team, you will have full epic gems in no time. Besides, having epic gems over blue's isn't going to make or break your char.
