Yup I was watching Asmongold do some raids and was having difficulty killing the bosses.

I'm still doing fine in Siege of Orgrimmar. Or, I was, before all the shit went down. It was definitely taking longer to kill things, though; the problem is that I can't tell if that's just because a bunch of shit changed with skills or if that's legit because things are harder now.

Ugh so WoD raids drop 0-1 loot if you solo them now? Since Legacy loot only works if you are +10 levels higher. So my plan of doing all the WoD content and collecting appearances over the next month before BFA is fucked 
Legacy Loot Doesnt Work - World of Warcraft Forums
Also apparently they heavily nerfed leveling exp. Dungeons are taking 3x longer, and not giving the huge chunk of exp for completion (only happens once a week). I've been leveling a Hunter in dungeons and really enjoying it, but not if EXP is basically 3-4x slower.. With ability pruning and not getting a talent every level and thus not having that much to look forward to with each level, I can't cope with speeds 3-4x slower than what they are now. Guess I'm going to use my 110 boost and that's that... which is said because I'm an altaholic.
What the actual fuck. All this intense love I've been confessing for WoW lately has fucked me.

Sounds like it. On the plus side at 120 you will rape Garrosh like he has never been raped before.

Heavily nerfing dungeon exp for leveling 1-110 is such fucking bullshit. Sometimes I want to level an alt entirely in dungeons. Sometimes I want to level an alt almost entirely with quests. Now they are forcing me to play the way they want me to? What the fuck man. Who is this new guy in charge and how do I murder him?
I know I read that too, but the point is you can't get any loot from WoD right now right? Or you get 0-1 pieces, as if you were in a normal raid and got lucky?

According to that thread it used to be +10 and they purposely changed it to +11, because god forbid if we can farm Legion raids efficiently at 120.

You know this complete and total anecdotal and just a person opinion, but I still feel like Blizzard have made a big mistake rushing out BfA, and it does feel rushed for sure. I know they want to avoid things like 13 month Siege of Org stale content and they have constantly promised to release content faster even though that is hit or miss really. Legion was obviously worked on a decent amount and you could tell by how smooth the launch was, the pre-patch was smooth even if the event had some fucked scaling issues.
BfA is the first expansion that they announced a release date on so early almost a year ahead of time. You hear about issues with BfA from the beta testers that things feel uninspired and unfinished. They say the talents are pretty much garbage with the artifact necklace and there are some serious problems with class design or lack there of knowing that some classes aren't even getting a pass until 8.1 admitted by the Dev's themselves. It really feel's like this needs a few more months of polish and they should of never promised a specific release date. If they took a couple months to finish up and test all this shit down to the stat squish and old world scaling I feel like it would be worth it. Delaying this until October or even November wouldn't of been a big deal if it meant that was released in a polished state.

Yeah a last minute change that wasn't data mined I guess? So really last minute and sneaky. What the fuck is going on over there? Is this that one new guy in charge? Apparently he's a lawyer? These changes they are making don't even seem like they would bring in that much $$$. I could be wrong, but do they really believe slowing the leveling in dungeons by 300-400% will bring in that many 110 character boosts? Seems to me like they'd bring in inactives... When I started up again a few weeks ago I started with a brand new Monk because I couldn't remember my account info and wanted to roll alliance anyways. I almost quit in my late teens because the leveling was too slow and boring. With the severe ability pruning and no talents and only having 2 things to press and looking at my spellbook to see only 1 other ability coming like 11 levels later was just.... not great. Dungeons really helped those boring patches of levels along and now they've gone and said "fuck you, we want you out in the world, play the game the way WE say you should play it, bitch."

Making your game shittier to sell boosts has to have awful diminishing returns.
edit - the Survival derp I've been messing around with is just so completely different than it was before that I'm really confused. It lost melee stuff in favor of ranged stuff for some reason?

Monk feels interesting right now.
With HT and ISB up I sit at 87% stagger. That's nearly NH level. Haven't done anything in practice yet since we had to cancel the raid.
Seeing myself with 50k hp was disheartening. I thought the stat squish would hit harder.

Legion launch was a shit show bro. Have you forgotten how many bugs and restarts there were? It was as bad as I can remember since vanilla.

Someone explain to me how stat budgets are possible now with older loot? Like I already mentioned I have two relics of different ilvl that have the exact same stats.
How is Classic Raid loot supposed to be different from TBC raid loot with how little room they have for stat budgets? Like I'm browsing through the stats of these things and finding classic items with more stamina than TBC raid items.
Way to piss on my "Oh my god this game is so good right now and it's only getting better and better" parade. I will be so bummed if BFA sucks, because the idea that expansions were going to continue to be as high quality as Legion really gave me hope in the MMOsphere in general and hope that WoW would be my game of choice for the foreseeable future and would be a consistently quality experience.
