I haven't read anything on the alpha/beta and I haven't watched the Q and A's because I hate internet memesters.

This expansion looks a little more promising than when it was first announced. Might actually feel like a Warcraft game again.

I don't give a rat's ass about Demon Hunters.

Are we still going to have bodyguards in Legion?

That's not the point. We now have three redundantly easy tiers of difficulty (normal, heroic, mythic). Mythic+ is only accessible on a limited basis each week. Once again they are doing everything they can to make sure that shit casual players don't feel "left out", at the expense of the people who actually care about the game. Why the fuck do we need any difficulty levels beyond normal and heroic? TBC and early Cata did it absolutely perfectly. Why are they fucking with this?

It's just the same gear with a different color scheme and slightly more stats, looks also matter. Though that's redundant now anyway since there's transmog.

You do realize 710 gear scales to 740 gear in PvP, right? Not even Mythic gear scrapes it minus the ring, which only works in world pvp. If you try doing arenas or RBGs in Mythic gear, prepare to eventually meet people who know their shit and will stomp you flat in the ground.

Granted PvP "balance" with WoW always was a joke, so I'll grant you that.

I like LFR because it's a good stepping stone for raiding.
While bad players do stay in LFR only because it's easy, the players who try to progress have trouble starting to do normal raids because groups just won't take them/give them a chance.

It can only go right if the Gul'dan raid has you beating back his sorcery and then just as it looks like he's defeated he tears off his robes whips put a huge battle axe, goes "You forget! I'm not just a warlock, I am an Orc! Gul'dan CHOP!!!"

I know, but World PvP is usually a lot more fun than BGs. Feels like there exist some kind of penalty with the death timer and the need to run back to your corpse.

The ilvl system has created massive barriers for new/returning players trying to actually get into higher level gameplay. It becomes impossible to raise your ilvl past what you can get from LFR because even PUGs insist on massively outgearing whatever content they are running. I really don't understand why Blizzard has pursued this system so heavily, it is crippling the game on every level, and its only made worse by the huge increases in ilvl from tier to tier. Archimonde drops gear that is 45 ilvls higher than Blackhand - it's completely absurd and totally unnecessary.

>>
>>342241472
No, the barrier to entry is that they took out attunements so there's no reason to ever run old content after you finished it. Before getting into a group was easier since alts were required to run old raids to catch up so players who came in later still had a chance. A slim one since people still had retarded expectations, but a chance just the same.

>>342240943

I honestly hope you are right, because I legitimately used to enjoy 5 man content.

I suppose that is true, but at the same time most people that do WPvP does have access to the ring too.

>>342241472
LFR gear is probably the worst gear though. if newer players wish to actually start raiding they can either try to find a guild like most people used to do,craft items and mythic dungeons.

But I suppose that is too hard and difficult for some players.

>>342241669

Shadow priest is entirely dependent upon its artifact.

>>342241731
it's not that they change the roation, it's just that the raw output of the spec depends on those abilities

not having those portals for destro?
not having the scream for demo
not having the pet for bm

i know its just a pre patch, but some specs are going to be absolute fucking garbage for a month
>>
>>342241819
This is correct, but the fact that they replaced attunements with ilvl just makes it even worse. I agree that all tiers of raid content should stay relevant throughout an expansion, but Blizzard for some reason don't want that. I guess they feel that the casuals will get bored if they aren't doing the newest, shiniest content and that's enough justification for them to completely fuck character progression.

The only types of guild that really exist now are hardcore mythic-focused guilds who will demand combat logs and high gear levels, and joke guilds who will never accomplish anything.

Limited to 3 equipped, plus the weapons are extremely weak. Crafted gear can't get you into a raid.

PvE is in a terrible state. The mechanics are brain-dead and you can clear a 25 man encounter with 10 properly geared people. Archie Comics is without hyperbole the easiest endgame boss in the history of this game regardless of difficulty level.

>>342242441

It's not world PvP, it's a conga line where everyone tries to hit events first, forms blockades and amount of healers is directly proportionate to how likely you are to win. And it's a win big or win nothing type of event, where the winners get free 710 gear and the losers get a box with 7g in it.
>>
>>342234124
You will have bodyguards, yes. However you'll have less to choose from. At the order hall mission table to can assign one of your champions as a combat ally which can range from abilities that proc when you're out in the world to actual bodyguards that tank for you (ie Koltira for DKs and Broll for druids).

I'd personally recommend the Q&As just because Watcher seems like the only non retard who interacts with players. They're doing one every week for the next few weeks with one gameplay aspect being the focus each week. This week is professions.

>>342244302

Yes but there's a reason people can sell heroic Archi kills. You can bring 10 worthless people, have them go die in the nearest lava pit and have the other 15 people clear the fight in thirty seconds.

A Heroic endgame boss really shouldn't be as trivial as his LFR counterpart. Why even have difficulty levels if LFR, Normal and Heroic all equate to the same retard mode?

That's one way to look at it. I don't see the distinction between this and actual large scale world pvp though?

>And it's a win big or win nothing type of event, where the winners get free 710 gear and the losers get a box with 7g in it.

Sounds like incentive to win to me. Otherwise you just get defeatists and shitters standing around for a pay off, I much prefer this way over that.

Artifact skins are the same. You're not going to stand out by your specific model, but by your recolor.

There are artifact skins that are hidden, you get them by doing specific stuff during dungeons/scenarios.

Roll the Bones is fun as hell, but it should really just be a 30 second cooldown rather than anything related to combo points. That way a rogue always has some sort of beneficial buff rather than having to sacrifice a finisher for a chance at something useful.

There isn't much to see. Outlaw is literally 2 animations + Pistol, and lazy ass Blizz made sure to use the same animation for Pistol attack and finisher. Also you won't see shing in melee when a Demo Lock and a BM Hunter are in the group. That is obstructive.

I honestly don't like the huge focus on trinkets. They give huge dps boost. Sometimes almost as equal as the 4 tier set bonus for some classes.

>>
>>342257282
they're getting nerfed in legion and they're also removing the whole "your trinket will always proc in the first few seconds of starting a fight" thing. It will maintain its internal cooldown between fights which means you can't really bait out a trinket proc during the initial burst anymore.

I wouldn't even mind if every armor class and role had amazing trinkets. Melee dps got fucked hard outside of maybe ret paladins with EDH.

know that feel friendo. We don't even raid anymore but I tried so long to get that fucking Vial from BRF because every other trinket is worse. Doesn't help that our class trinket is trash for both dps speccs.

If you're playing DK as anything other than Unholy you're doing it wrong. Go make an ice mage

>Any melee other than Death Knight

Enjoy not doing SHIT since the moment you step up/show up to the enemy you get tab target to death.

Only way to do anything as a melee was death griping people to death.

It was so bad for melees I just respec for healing whenever I wanted to pvp.

And sadly it's still bad in 7.0. I was hoping the change in frost's playstyle would encourage the class trinket for single target but it's still not that great.

On the plus side, we get stupid amounts of burst from Dark Arbiter without having to cheese the fuck out of glyphs like Death's Embrace before pulls.

>Maintaining all those brands and the vortex.

This actually feels so much better than the current enhancement shaman.

Question though, can you only pick one artifact weapon or does it change when you switch specs? I mainly play Resto but Enhancement is fun as fuck.

I've been playing the beta, I'm bored already .. I think I've just had enough of WoW to be fair.

When you start leveling you pick one. But once you hit 102 you'll get quests to get the other 2. When you change specs, it automatically equips the artifact for you.

tfw they are killing disc i like the dps healer aspect but the heals fucking suck dick, no point really to take a disc to 5 mans or raids

>>342261776

It's going to take more than "tuning" to make Disc good for 5 mans. The atonement/damage healer really doesn't work for such a small group.

And then some specs like Frost DK or BM Monk are just fucked beyond all tuning at a core level.
