Also who gives a fuck about dungeon xp. I want to go back to a time when I played for fun. Min max because you’re polite to your group to not suck but at the same time not be so autistic to obsess over a single piece of unoptimized gear.

Yeah I am pretty sure I want to play the RP rules... just can't decide the faction to play since there is so much new stuff.

I am going to run the beta on my macbook to see how it runs though. Nice that it runs natively I guess.

I’m am almost assuredly doing LoZ OoT before I jump into this. I’ll be behind but I don’t care if this is what they say it is. It’s gonna take me forever to level anyway at my play rate these days.

Horde all the way. Cow-bear. I always found the chase items for feral to be fun, especially tanks. Will be curious to see how that changes with all the new re-itemization.

I think the issue is that new blue sky elves are showing up out of left field. Isn't the point of this to be a re-imagined version of vanilla WoW? If they wanted elves, why not just add High Elves for the Alliance and Blood Elves for the Horde? Both of those races have long ties to classic Warcraft - all the way back to the RTS days - so they would fit the retro theme perfectly.

Instead, the blue sky elves seem like a lazy race shoehorned in to boost microtransactions and box sales.
Extra revenue from the leftist player base.

What are the odds that class are revised so there are many more viable options, like they did in the seasonal stuff? It wasn't just about stacking 12 warriors and then 1 or 2 of each other class. Lots and lots of fun specs in SoD from what I remember.

I haven’t looked at the talents in the past day or so but the first one I saw still had holy shield at 30% block. Removing crushing blows is still going to make for tough itemization for paladins.

They stated at one point during some panel that they want to shake up the meta, and they don't want class stacking as bad as it got with warriors. They just need to adjust the rage gain scaling with gear which they might've already done. Plus they can actually make balance changes now. I do hope a bunch of people roll warriors though and then it turns out that they're a tier A or B DPS. Rogues and mages should almost always be top or close to it imo, as the pure DPS classes, followed slightly by hunters and warlocks.
