  1. The spicey healing in Remix, the one that burns health for haste on your healing targets, could actually make delve healing, kinda fun. Perhaps only for a few specs. But it can only go so far

  2. The issue isn't that healers are too strong so fights are more challenging… It's because of all of the defensives every class has got now due to the class trees. More defensives means they have to make fights more bursty or they will be too easy. This is taking agency away from the healing role. They tried to remedy the issue by overbuffing healers instead of cutting down defensive tools on other roles, further exacerbating the issue. They are at least taking steps to nerf tertiary stats such as Avoidance and Leech to cut back on all the personal survivability that is mucking up the healing role's agency and creating omega bursty designed fights.

  3. I hope warbands do not mean they tune their game towards multiple character and towards a more diabloesque character system with seasonal vibes. The remixes hint at such a directino.
    I still want to mainly rock one character with systems that provide a full experience without sacrificing main content to encourage multiple character. Nothing wrong with warbands as of now but if content size is justified by multiple experiences for each class and not as a good amount of content for one character that would be a deteriorating loss in my book.

  4. And what is 'delve'? And how are players supposed to know this? Another massive problem with these xpacs is content just thrown out there with no explanation and if one doesn't know what it is all about, or that it even exists, well that's their problem. Right?

  5. Honestly, the roots are most likely going to feature in a small zone patch where we might have to deal with confronting aspects of life, and the dream, that were never ordered. I could see them also developing a water & life focused dungeon, or zone, using the underground ocean in Hallowfall and the roots as narrative pathways. I just hope they don't just lock it down behind yet another mega dungeon, because that would carry key lore tidbits that a good chunk of the playerbase will likely miss. I'd much rather have the new zones be expanded upon, with new lore and things to explore, that develop the overall narrative, even if it means going to the dreaded "flesh pits" (which sounds metal, ngl).

  6. Correction for the healers segment; They made everyone else a lot stronger and a lot more self-sufficient in keeping themselves alive, so they had to hit both fields, making sure DPS get a proper threat and healers at the same time.

    Basically pincered themselves into a whack-a-mole playstyle for healers, it's fucked.

  7. All I want is free mogs like in remix. It's annoying and UNFUN that max level characters have to spend hundreds of gold to change their outfit 🙄 makes no sense, and just removes a fun element from the game that regular (non-gold farmer) people enjoy

  8. Hello sir sorry to bother you here i didnt know another way to get ahold of you and dont know many people in the streaming world who would possibly have blizzard contact information i came home from being away for 24 hours to get on the game and noticed i was banned the customer support built into the game is absolutely atrocious i have tickets opened appeals and keep getting the same automated answer i wouldnt be reaching out this far if i would have been banned for a reason i literally have done absolutely nothing to break terms of service with blizzard not even grazing the edge im an honest casual player who likes to do raids and mythics i got banned for "hacking" and wouldnt even know where to start to do something like that but if there is any way you know of someone i could contact so 20 years of progress isnt just gone in a flash for no reason i would deeply appreciate it

  9. Like a 'woke' philosophy… do as little as possible …but get as much or more than those who work much harder? …? Just saying. I miss the old game… We shall see…

  10. idk, i can imagine healers being fun in delves. the nightmare thingy on the nyalotha patch and to some extent thorghast *shivers*… on healers at least, the crazy powers were fun. ill stay curious

  11. I just wish they had some creativity and made more/new professions and classes for new expansions. I'm so sick and tiered of having having four of the same class on different races and/or on factions. There's so much to grab from lore-wise and game-wise.
