Loving all the new changes, some i don't agree with 100% but im looking forward to Legion!
I'm worried with the new arcane changes, gnome will be best for PvE with Expansive Mind stacking really well with their new mastery.On the other hand I love that we're probably going to be a guardian, what with the new secret. And literally having Aegwynn's staff.
great summary, thank you. that is a lot of stuff
So many changes! Hope they are for the best.
HYPE
Expecting Rogues to be total trash tier with DH's on the rise. Can't imagine they won't trash their niche.
Amazing, im so hyped, amazing content, new class new artefact weapons, alot of changes!
Nothing on Paladins, I wonder if that's a good thing or a bad thing...
Combat Outlaw rogue with grappling hook. NEAT!
As someone who loves questing most of all (and does no instanced group content), the increased emphasis on it even at max level makes me very, very happy. Also, up until this point I was on the fence about even getting the artifact for my rogue (she's my gear bank alt which, huh, I guess she's about to made redundant...), who I cannot play as I suck mightily, but being able to pickpocket other rogues in the class hall? I shall suck it up, die lots, get her artifact, and hang out in the class hall, pick pocketing away and generally bringing down the tone of the place.
So....."Bringing more melee is usually bad, how are you addressing that?We are trying to improve that, but there are trade offs.We are steadily getting better at this, looking at data breakdowns for raid composition.People show that it swaps specs to ranged because of this bad perceptionWe are trying to push against that"But we got DK (Tanks/MDPS), Monks(Tanks/Healers/MDPS), DH (Tanks/MDPS) and changing one of the hunter specs to MDPS and no more range in the past xpacs and the one coming out. >.<
Well, I have to say that I am not happy with proposed changes to Disc priests and Feral druids. I really love rejuvenation in cat form-- its one of my favorite things. The way the heal spells are for disc priests, I have to rely on the absorbs to compensate for the nerfs on atonement healing. Although, healing players more with doing damage is a bit better-- but with the cast times and lack of hots and other stuff, it is not easy being disc. I guess I will have to see how it works out in actual gameplay, but a lot of changes can sometimes just ruin things. I know they want the game to constantly evolve, but it can be a pain having to re-learn a class. Some classes that used to be fun I no longer even play since they aren't fun anymore. I was wary of the changes I read about for WoD, but playing Beta made me enjoy it. Here's hoping I get into beta this time around.
I feel like someone is dropping the ball here with spec swapping. I duak spec because I want to be doing different things, i want to quickly be helpful in a pinch. I want to avoid tons of alts just for different specs. Like OS as tank when I dps, because sometimes I just feel tanky. So... I want to know why they are not recognizing this.
Nifty
Were there any whispers on the updates to Warcraft 3, Starcraft and Diablo 2? Are they getting widescreen support etc, or just being updated to run on modern operating systems? I wouldn't mind W1 and 2 being updated too and going through the old lore.
Not so sure how I feel about the proposed changes to druids, taking away stampeding roar for rest and replacing it with a heart of the wild variant. Also, giving innervate to only moonkins means you'll most likely need a moonkin in your raids. Where as, giving it to both resto and balance would allow a little more diversity.The DK rune change is a nice quality of life change though, I'll enjoy that for sure.
Happy to hear about it will be easier to get off spec artifact. Really sad that a lot of these chats didn't make it on virtual thicket. I'm here at blizzcon and feels like I missed out on those communities talks. A lot good info.
So much information! Kind of surprised there's so little information regarding shaman, given how long we've been sitting on the edge of the chopping block as far as pruning/revamping is concerned. Hopefully the class blogs they promised will shed a bit more light on all classes very soon.That transmog system revamp though <3
OMG.... my class will have a chance..... ALLELUIA!
Now this is the stuff I was waiting for! I love the class details! I can't wait for more.. hungry for knowledge!
