    I won't spoil anything because some of it we should be seeing tomorrow but yes Genn plays a much bigger role at least from the stuff I have done in beta he shows up a bunch.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yup they do seem to have recalled Genn exists and plays a pretty important role from what I have seen so here is hoping at some point a new gilneas or at very least a few more quest hub cities get the worgen treatment. They are pretty much the only playable race who has nothing of their faction...

    And they only ever use the aesthetic in a couple tiny hubs in the far corners of the world. Goblin stuff is all over the damn place but worgen stuff is I think only in a couple areas like one quest hub in blasted lands. Even in their "capital" darnassus they live in trees just like the elves.

    I think one of the things that really was the nail in the coffin for WOD was they moved so quickly into legion mode that a lot of stuff that could have been fixed or enhanced to make it play better simply were not worth the effort to do so with as it was not going to be maintained going forward...

    It drops ilevel 685 armor as well its mostly to help catch up non raiding alts up to a good gear level fast as well as for unique looks.

    No kidding. The really wacky thing about WOD is there ARE two capital cities already setup to use as such but then for some damn reason the ashran hobo city is what they chose.

    Don't waste the boost on dh do their newbie area takes about an hour and should finish at 100 level

    Honestly with the new transmog wardrobe system stuff like this is a lot neater. It does not take up any bag space super easy to do and can be applied to any future alts.

    You can get 685 gear for all classes that has a new look I believe. You can also get ilevel 700 upgradable to 725 weapons with unique looks. Doing them also gets you an event currency you can use to buy transmog wardrobe looks/pets/items.

    I don't believe the queue system cares if a DPS is ranged or melee. That said I don't think I ever had problems with three melee dps in a dungeon finder group.

    Warriors work fine soloing. Basically you trade off some kill speed for greatly increased durability and ability to take multiple mobs at the same time. The only specs that had soloing issues was really healers resto healers did dick all damage but it seems to have been bolstered across the...

    Yup probably just forgot they made him tameable and he has his boss sound volumes still instead of the much quieter pet level ones.
  14. kaid

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Oh ya I had heard you could tame thock but I had not gotten around to it yet. Probably some bug where they did not realize they flagged him as tameable and so still has his normal sound volumes and not his levels. I have seen this happen before after expansions as they reflag old boss mobs tameable.

    HAHAH I don't think its a current problem I have a t rex and he is not stompy at the moment. That said dino mega stompyness has been a reoccuring issue from time to time. Every once in a while some of the pet sounds get out of whack and get REALLY loud. Used to be corehounds were my bane that...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    I think the the RPG books that talk about it all describe it as fusion powered for the star fighters and anti matter type drives for capital ships.

    On beta it used to be FAR worse. My gnome made this insane yipping sound every god damn time you used dire beasts. It was awful. At least now it is just the standard summon pet whistle which while not great to hear so often is okay compared to the horror it once was.

    I have not played ret paladins yet in the beta but from everything I have heard they are not in a great place at the moment. Prot and holy though seem really fun so may be a case of swapping to alt spec until they fix ret.

    In my playing around on beta I am kinda curious about this as well. With all the guaranteed crit stuff I am not sure how high of a priority crit even is any more for fire. You get two charges of that ability that if you get one crit you can force the second instantly to pyroblast and then the...

    Yes although it is possible to dual craft if you have an alt to gather materials for you or buy stuff off the AH. Getting specific things like blood of sargaras are going to be slower without crafting but not to bad from what I hear. One big change is there are a LOT of quests for...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    And I think that is currently why you are seeing crafted stuff cap at 850. They want people to experience this stuff as challenging before letting them start over gearing it easier. I would expect a month or two after that higher level gear starts becoming pretty common you see new upgrade...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    850 is the max now. That may not be the final number though. It is very possible that this raises as guilds start clearing heroics/mythic ones as they have done in WOD making new upgrade levels available after the elites have has their shots for a few weeks to get their firsts without them.

    This is going to be the real make or break for launch on legion too. Dalaran is a major initial hub where pretty much all the artifact stuff starts at so everybody and their dog is going to be there right off the bat. If the instance servers handle that and get people past it and out into the...

    As a raider I would agree resto is the best tank affinity. For soloing though feral is pretty damn nice. Still a cat is more likely to take bear form than visa versa. It is nice in feral mode to have the OH SHIT button of you pulled to much stuff dot it up and then swap to bear and then bear...

    Yes I have bumped into it a couple times on the isle of giants when I was grinding some pets/mounts/hunter stuff. Times when nothing would spawn at all and nothing was visible NPC wise. This is pretty much how instances were breaking on the beta so I am guessing it is still part of whatever was...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yup that is the gauntlet. If people can get out past that it should be fine but dalaran shat itself mightly for a while in beta as big waves came in. At least they were doing a number of launch tests to hit just the main bottleneck areas hard so hopefully they got enough good data to keep things...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think its day one playability is going to be largely determined if they can keep their instance servers in dalaran from shitting themselves like they were doing in beta. If they can and people can get their artifact stuff completed it may be okay. The big change with the scaling stuff this...

    Each spec is different. If you want to know a specific specs off hand I can help. Some are really weird like demo warlocks their "main" is their off hand which is a floating demon head and their main hand is an artifact dagger. Some have shields some have tomes some have weirder stuff it is all...

    This game is still in beta but I have been playing it a ton and really enjoying it. It looks like they are opening up a permanent free trial mode for the game as of next week. Basically each person who has not purchased the game can play it with free hero rotation and the rotation is different...

    It depends on your affinity. If you are bear form and take cat affinity then if you switch to cat form you have access to a lot of the DPS cat abilities and it generally will be a good bit higher DPS than you can normally do. Nice for soloing stuff fast. And visa versa if you are cat form and...

    Yes and nobody can talk about welfare epics if you watch any of the videos of the higher level keystone runs +10,+11 there are some SERIOUS damage spikes happening that looks pretty seriously challenging.
  32. kaid

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yes every step up increases the loot available and rewards you can potentially get. So at higher keystone levels dungeons are kicking out higher end raid capable gear pretty consistently so its a good alternate gear path for people who prefer small group fights instead of full on raiding.

    Honestly with the pre patch a lot of pets kinda got neutered as a lot of the ones that gave buffs don't any more. For the most part combat wise most pets are pretty much the same but some do still have some special ability. Like Trex have a mortal strike type ability, corehounds have heroism...

    Basically when you complete a mythic dungeon or do some world quests you can get dungeon keystones. Using these in a mythic basically adds a complication factor to it and improves the rewards. If you have played diablo3 it works a lot like those instances work. If you complete the mythic dungeon...

    Right now by default warlocks have no mobility increase other than the long cool down gateways. You can take the teleport or burning rush but those are talents and on the same tier so you can only take one or the other. Also they changed the port where now it is a single button press it once and...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    They may have gutted warlock mobility but the warlocks are probably one of the tankier things on the battlefield now so most are totally content to just sit there in the scrum and slobber up everybody with dots. For aff locks specing for 60 second on pvp target corruption is lol worthy as well...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    A lot of the melee classes are a bit squishy at the moment enhance shaman are very much in a boat with survival hunters. Self heals in general for dps specs are a lot less than they were in general. There are a few odd cases "I am looking at you warlocks" where that is not currently the case...

    Oh it is I have to hope at 110 the demon skin thing is balanced better or that thing is going to get smacked with the nerf tree. It is really lol worthy derping around and even doing nothing it takes a long time for people to even get to your health bar. Now add that you can drain life or...

    Try some PVP. If you take the demon skin talent your damage absorption is freaking CRAZY at the moment. I felt like a raid mob it took 3-4 people beating on me to kill my warlock when I was messing with it. My shield absorbs for more than 200k health and regenerates at 1 percent of my max hp and...
