  1. Imo, i feel like they waste so much time with boring unecessary systems, I would much rather 1 extra zone or 1-2 more dungeons, a mini raid… You know.. Actual content. More interesting gear, like the current gear (from legion) is already super boring, more focus on the classes, like the talent system is deeply flawed and boring

  2. Thanks for the content! I tend to not concern myself with new content until release; it changes too much. But, I feel like you are doing a great job keeping us informed.

    I was wondering; where are you going to get your addons now that we have lost Twitch?

  3. As a software developer, it makes sense to me that they have some class changes on the beta and some on the PTR. The PTR is functionally the beta for the pre-patch, and that is rushing up on them PDQ. They're busting butt to stabilize that build. They're probably only putting changes on the PTR that either feel safe or critical to playability. Pre-patch will probably last at least a month. It needs not to be a train wreck. Riskier changes or ones that are more dependent balancing in the context of SL systems can go on the beta.

  4. Input from smooth brain players is ruining something that could have been fun to play around with. The reasoning of these troglodytes can easily be expanded to legendries. Blizzard is giving these ignoramuses an approximation of what they think they want: talent builds and "skill" are what differentiate you from other players. No borrowed power to mess up your avatar! Now you will have the choice between various flavors of meaninglessness with no impact or consequence to your gameplay! Rejoice! This is the game you bitched like a child to receive! We'll also nerf crafting while we're at it just to make you happy!

    It's great that Blizzard is being swayed to balance their MMO like an FPS; I can't wait for my mechanical mastery of the game to be the all encompassing reason I out perform another player. /s

    Being able to freely switch between conduit trees in rested zones was all I wanted. I've become really peeved with a certain doughy Irish personality who'd spout dumb and disingenuous things about these systems until he's red in the face (and often omit a lot to bolster his meandering). Through all of his really hard blinking and flustering he can't quite articulate that he simply wants the game to cater to players like him and offer as much convenience as possible if not more.

  5. Too many systems, in the immortal words of Mr Micheal Scott "K.I.S.S. Keep it simple, stupid", legiondaries worked because they were impactful and simple, legos and covenants without conduits would have been enough. Conduits and soulbinds unnecessarily complicate it all, so it will all get nerfed.

  6. So they took a healer who has great HPS and buff his HPS even more. But he is still fargile, immobile and weak in terms of utility. His Desperate Prayer is total trash and has to be reworked to damage reduction or shield.

  7. Holy fuck if legendarys / conduits are to strong everbody is crying like Wääh Wääh borrowed powers are to strong Wääh Wääh.
    On the other Hand if Everything that‘s just OP is getting balanced everybody cry‘s Wääh Wääh don‘t nerf all the good things Wääh Wääh ..
    Give me a fucking breake, in my opinion Blizzard is doing a great job balanceing this stuff. It‘s not easy to balance everything and making a good game i trust them

  8. Holy priest buffs are a joke. Would gladly trade all that to 30% buff on flash heal. Or talent that makes fh instantly doing mastery portion of healing (instead of dead binding heal).
    Single target healing of holy is pure dogshit, biggest m+ problem atm

  9. How does the stat scaling work for Mastery? I mean a restodruid have a low % of mastery since they get it for each Hot, while my arms warrior is at like 150% with the same amount of stats.

  10. The drinking one is gonna feel real bad in m+ pugs. Tanks just gonna barrel ahead and we used to be and to take a quick sip and catch up, but I feel like there's gonna be quite a few oom situations with the healer getting flamed for it now.
