(Note that in the spirit of this blog, when I say "five" I don't want to be constrained or limited by the number 5, which is a western, manocentric term anyway. Also note that these are not the enhancements I'd like to see, that's another blog.)

I select the little guy that says "Only Ironbreaker Gear" and then I get ... every kind of gear.
I know that the AH is the last thing that Mythic introduced, I just want Mythic to recognize that the AH is the last thing they introduced and get this (and any other AH bugs which I'm sure exist) fixed quickly so I can use the darn thing. - Clunky Combat
The combat is fun but never feels quite right. Especially those times when I'm smacking some guy and have to hit Binding Grudge like five times before my character actually casts it.
If I hit a spell I should cast the spell unless I'm violating a cooldown or something. - CTD's
If you're acronym deficient (or "AD", as I often call it), CTD means Crash To Desktop. Although this list is in no particular order the CTD's are definitely the worst problem. I probably get a CTD once every one or two hours, which is way too much. - Alt-Tab
Related to the CTD's. I and many other people are seeing lots of crashes when we alt-tab out of the game. Please don't go all FFXI on us, give us back our alt-tabs! - EULA
I know your lawyers say that players need to click it every time they play the game. Your players, however, don't want to have to move the scroll bar, click a checkbox, and then click the bloody button every single time.
So, here's the compromise, which I think is fair : send your lawyer and the EULA into a room. Two go in, one comes out. - Quit Game
Typically in video games, pressing the "Quit Game" button allows you to quit the game. This makes a lot of sense, as if a player presses the "Quit Game" button they probably want to quit the game.
So I find it interesting that pressing the "Quit Game" button in WAR does not actually quit the game. Instead the game goes into a laborious 20 second logout cycle. Well, it does if you're lucky. If you're not lucky you're in combat and the game won't let you exit at all.
So if I'm playing a scenario and my son wakes up crying, I can't just say "hey, I want to quit". I also can't just leave, because I don't want to go afk in the scenario. Instead I have to alt-tab, bring up the Task Manager, find WAR, and kill it.
Amazingly, when I do this it does not break the game. Servers don't explode. I don't lose my character or anything. So what I want you to do, Mythic, is to use this idea of "killing" the process, and apply that functionality to your "quit game" button. Because the whole alt-tab-task-manager-finding-war-killing-it thing is getting really old.

Highest on my list?
I want my stupid Lion to stay summoned. That's really all I want at this point. Oh, and for him to attack RIGHT when I tell him to, not 3 seconds after.
I thought that was lag, but I'm not so sure. My other abilities always trigger when I want them to, so why not the lion's attack?
Yep, pet classes still need some polishing.
I agree with all of those bugs. But #6 is there to deter logging out to avoid being killed by someone during RvR or being killed by making a stupid decision in PvE. As long as your character stays logged in server side, like WoW did, I'm cool with that.
@jobildo
Oh not, not WAR too!
I played a lock in WoW and it was (I kid you not) about 14-16 months before they finally fixed the last of the pet bugs.
@anon
Yeah, I don't mind the dying since that's what I assume I'm doing when I kill WAR. I just want to be able to exit to my desktop while my character is getting killed.
