WHAT

#

THAT SUCKS

#

so im just never going to have it?

uncut vault
#

gotta love artificial scarcity

dense plover
#

fuck you blizzard

#

i want a sauropod mount

#

i dont care about the AH

night swift
#

Thats fucking stupid

dense plover
#

i just want a big long boi

#

it IS fucking stupid

#

its 5 million gold

#

theres no reason to remove it

#

unless they plan to sell it on the store or some other bullshit

night swift
#

Oh they’re gonna

dense plover
#

have they even ever done that before for an ingame gold mount?

night swift
#

I can see it

dense plover
#

they havent removed those before

#

this is bullshit

#

Im upset

ionic terrace
#

it'll be bmah

uncut vault
#

theyre adding it to the BMAH, where it will go for even more gold

dense plover
#

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

#

so yes

night swift
#

God that’s ridiculous

dense plover
#

no long boi for me

#

ever

#

fuck you blizz

#

fuck

#

you

dark furnace
#

They might do another ah mount in Shadowlands

dense plover
#

just give me one without the AH

#

i dont care about the auction house

dark furnace
#

It would be weird to let some people have a walking ah that is not obtainable

zealous basalt
#

That's why its a FoS

#

its like

night swift
#

I just wish long bois were tameable for hunters

zealous basalt
#

"fuck you poor people, look at this shite"

tranquil steeple
#

literal middle finger to those who didn't have 12+ chars playing the AH when you could make lots of gold

#

and screwing nearly all other means of getting gold

dense plover
#

or who arent buying $200 worth of tokens

#

this feels like a scheme to increase quarterly revenue

tranquil steeple
#

more like 300

zealous basalt
#

Quarterly revenue?

dense plover
#

"Hey this 5 million gold mount is going away and if you cant get the gold, you can buy it from us!"

#

yes

#

quarterly revenue

night swift
#

Cause people gonna buy to s of tokens

dense plover
#

as in the money they make this quarter

tranquil steeple
#

actually, wait

zealous basalt
#

I blame Classic

tranquil steeple
#

currently a token is 232k for EU

#

so it's atleast 400 euros

#

if you got a decent amount of gold already

dense plover
#

its literally going to raise revenue through whales

tranquil steeple
#

and close to 460-480 if you have barely any at all

round lake
#

voice your concern then

dense plover
#

they wont change it

#

they already added the achieve

round lake
#

they could just because they added it doesnt mean they can change it

tranquil steeple
#

at best they'd reduce the cost temporarily to further entice people who don't have quite enough, to get enough through... you GUESSED IT

dark furnace
#

If there is an outcry for it, they might change it

ancient jasper
#

Already stated my displeasure on that thread

#

More people need to

zealous basalt
#

Ye

#

everyone is calling it a token something

cyan prairie
#

so token price is going down now...

ancient jasper
#

It's literally a blatant cash grab for Token sells

cyan prairie
#

cheaper tokens = more tokens for lower price = more € for Bnet balance = cheaper race changes

ancient jasper
#

How much is the Gold cap per character these days?

normal mango
#

10m

cyan prairie
#

9,999,999

ancient jasper
#

So expect the Brutosaur to be that any time it shows up on the BMAH

dense plover
#

yep

#

its bullshit

eager compass
dense plover
#

still no music according to stiven

#

ah

#

that explains the misc uncolored mask models from last build

#

they were the cosmetic versions of the vision ones

cyan prairie
#

that mask looks kinda shit, ngl

dense plover
#

it works with the rest of the armors

#

it allows you to look like the npcs

#

thats clearly its purpose

cyan prairie
#

but it's a reused appearance

#

of an already existing mog

dense plover
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

i thought it was a modified model

#

because it doesnt have the rest of the helm

cyan prairie
#

removed the hat

dense plover
#

and lets hair through

cyan prairie
#

that's the only difference

dense plover
#

it lets your hair function still

#

i consider that a plus

whole cedar
#

i'm sorry guys 😒

dense plover
#

why are you sorry?

whole cedar
#

I made the brutosaur posts lol

zealous basalt
#

Nery nery nery

#

There is an old say that it goes

dense plover
#

hey

#

dont shoot the messenger

zealous basalt
#

Yep

dense plover
#

you brought us the news

#

we might not have heard it otherwise

#

now we can protest

ancient jasper
#

Not your fault you wanted info from Blizzard and that info turned out to be Blizzard being fucking stupid again

storm marsh
#

Question: do new eyes have glow or?

ancient jasper
#

It's hard to tell without seeing them ingame

zealous basalt
#

No idea

#

Probably it wont have yet

dense plover
#

^

#

first implementation of the actual eyes

#

and the new eye tech

#

so the goal here is probably making sure they actual work in the model and dont break stuff

#

glow comes after

zealous basalt
#

This works

dense plover
#

@eager cradle realms are up but build hasnt been deployed to clients

#

its likely they are doing final passes to make sure the build is functional for raid testing tomorrow, since there wont be any builds or raid testing next week

zealous basalt
#

It feels

#

Like

#

they added the thing on the older eyes

ancient jasper
#

Eh? Realms are still down for me

dense plover
#

no they replaced the actual eyes

#

and the actual eyes are colored now

eager cradle
#

didn't they just replace the glow?

dense plover
#

its the basic implementation that separates eyes from eye color

#

no

#

they removed the glow

novel zodiac
#

bli$$ard exist STONKS

dense plover
#

and are implementing the eyes as if this was shadowlands

#

because eyes and faces are separate now

zealous basalt
#

Ah

dense plover
#

so right now they are just new eyes

#

no glow fx

zealous basalt
#

Because the other ones just felt like

#

blue balls

dense plover
#

or if there are fx, they havent been found via datamining the vendor build

zealous basalt
#

I doubt

eager cradle
#

@dense plover so in your experience, you don't believe servers are coming back any minute, right? 😄

dense plover
#

like, they might exist and are encrypted

#

they are coming back up

#

but the build hasnt gone out

#

that might not even happen today

eager cradle
#

oh 😦 I was so curious on seeing the eyes

#

thanks

zealous basalt
#

me 2

dense plover
#

i guarantee that right now they are checking server stability before deploying to the client in case they decide to rollback servers so they can still do the raid test tomorrow

#

because they HAVE to

zealous basalt
#

Ah its like

dense plover
#

there is no raid testing next week

#

so if they delay, it fucks their whole schedule

eager cradle
#

look at that, a company with an actual sane deploy process

#

😄

dense plover
#

lol

#

nah

#

this is an exception

#

specifically because next week is thanksgiving

#

and blizz probably gives Wednesday through the weekend as offtime

zealous basalt
#

So how do we riot

tropic trail
#

why riot?

zealous basalt
#

For longboi

tropic trail
#

oh

eager cradle
#

what?

#

what happened to longboi?

tropic trail
#

its going to die on 9.0

tranquil steeple
#

going to be removed from purchasing

#

unless you got gold cap in Shadowlands

eager cradle
#

this kinda looks like a way to make people panic-buy tokens

dense plover
#

it does

#

as I said

#

way to increase quarterly revenue

zealous basalt
#

The worst part is

#

That they know people will do

#

Like

eager cradle
#

they could have increased Q4 rev much easier by deploying vulpera in december, just think of all that race-change money

zealous basalt
#

Someone in the HQs went and said that people are that guilliable enough to buy Tokens if they remove the brutosaur

#

But peach

#

Didn't you say that this quarter and the next one is going to be a bad one for em?

eager cradle
#

Last quarter was classic release

#

of course this one is weaker because the big mainstream classic hype is over

dense plover
#

yeah but this is the christmas quarter

zealous basalt
#

And there is nothing to do in retail

dense plover
#

if it does worse than last quarter, thats really bad

zealous basalt
#

Probably they predicted a big loss for this quarter

dense plover
#

not neccesarily a loss

#

but compared to last quarter, doing worse in the christmas quarter looks bad

#

they can have massive falloff the quarter after and be fine because thats the WORST quarter

#

january is a bad month in general

#

they essentially just need december to do really well

#

but january doing well would look good because its historically bad universally

#

since everyone spends their money over the holidays

zealous basalt
#

So

ionic terrace
#

Build is out @dense plover

#

2.70 GB

zealous basalt
#

Oshit

#

Tell me if it allows dks

ionic terrace
#

Doubt servers are up

ancient jasper
#

Will probably be a bit before servers are brought up

ionic terrace
#

Mhm, still down

whole cedar
#

@dense plover I wouldn't be so sure about no build next week

zealous basalt
#

ekekekeke

whole cedar
#

Last year they literally deployed a build on mother's day

#

I hope they won't release one but wouldn't come as a surprise if they did.

dense plover
#

mothers day isnt thanskgiving

#

thanksgiving is a federal holiday

#

oh damn

#

build deployed

ancient jasper
#

Yep

whole cedar
#

It was both a holiday and a Sunday so make of that what you will hehe

zealous basalt
#

Oh yes

ancient jasper
#

Huh.. Within an hour and a half that post has gotten nearly 300 replies.

dense plover
#

looks like the daily visions (the ones in the two assault zones) are going to have maps showing the area, which is a nice addition

calm garden
#

nice

ionic terrace
#

🤔

tropic trail
#

servers still down im guessing?

ionic terrace
#

Ye

lean yew
#

yeah im gonna guess servers wont be up until tomorrow morning

#

builds taking overnight used to be rare - now its last week and this, not sure whats up

#

they also used to have better communication

dense plover
#

not really

#

no communication on ptr is standard

#

also, the day there isnt over yet

#

they got another 2 hours

lean yew
#

its 4 in cali time

#

if its not up by 5 its prob not coming up

#

also

#

they used to communicate a lot, yes

#

zobrix and then the shark guy that starts with an A

#

everytime there was a build they'd communicate, and give updates.

#

They stopped that, and we just get radio silence now

ionic terrace
#

I was about to say servers were up but then I realized I was logged into retail

calm garden
#

lol

#

gg on that

#

if only

ionic terrace
#

Servers up

#

@dense plover

#

hahahaha

#

sigh

dense plover
#

figured it was about time

#

did you prepurchase padwarle?

ionic terrace
#

Yes

dense plover
#

hmmm

#

does race change work?

ionic terrace
#

sec

dense plover
#

nope

#

dammit

ionic terrace
#

😦

tropic trail
#

i guess we might need to wait for next build

ionic terrace
#

Zidormi is in Vale

#

well, according to my map lol

calm garden
#

well thats nice to know

dense plover
#

yep

#

gonna check on daily hubs

#

and heart chamber

calm garden
#

i just get stuck on loging in lol

#

thats fun

dense plover
zealous basalt
#

How dks are looking?

dense plover
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

they arent implemented

zealous basalt
#

The

#

CORE RACES

dense plover
#

looks like cloak ilvl was changed

#

theres still no glow

#

it probably isnt finished

#

use various currencies now

uncut vault
zealous basalt
#

But eyes?

#

Das a glow for me

dense plover
ancient jasper
#

Did they change how the Character Creation stuff looks? Everything is silvery now

uncut lintel
#

screenshot :ooO?

dense plover
#

uh....no?

uncut vault
zealous basalt
#

The iris glows

uncut lintel
#

is that permenant natntn ?

ancient jasper
#

Huh you're right. Could swore everything was more gold

ionic terrace
dense plover
#

yeah

#

that was there for pandaren race/faction change before I think

#

or maybe for creating a boosted one?

uncut vault
#

both

dense plover
#

it just wasnt on for DKs last wekk

ionic terrace
#

You never could

dense plover
#

so even if it isnt consumed, you cant enter if you cant do it

#

you couldnt?

ionic terrace
#

Nope

dense plover
#

i was able to visit the waiting room

ancient jasper
dense plover
#

and then you couldnt enter

#

still no good way to move between the two zones

#

i hate all the loadscreens

#

daily quest rewards still suck 😦

#

vulture cost was lowered to 22.8k

#

creates a leash between you and your pet

#

also void scarred beetle is bugged

#

citizens were finally set to 120 elites instead of lvl 90

#

oh fuck

#

thank god

#

they finally set all the non invasion critters to lvl 119

#

so theyre pushovers

#

uh

#

not all of them

#

but uh, some?

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

the oasis FP is fixed!

#

theres npcs again!

#

no longer just a piece of gear

#

specifically denotes a chance for a corrupted item

#

oh shit

#

and the nzoth one straight up contains a vessel of horrific visions

#

so you can now DEFINITELY do more than one a week

#

but it also means you probably want to group up

#

otherwise, probably only 2

#

theyve finally started rotating the rares and WQs more actively

#

phase in range is still complete trash

#

i do not like only being able to see mobs within 40m

#

its ridiculous

uncut vault
#

its certainly a hindrance for taking good screenshots in my experience 😛

dense plover
#

it also just makes the assaults feel not active

#

and most of the map literally empty

#

and it makes finding quest mobs frustrating

ionic terrace
dense plover
#

the sun explosion the amathet can do now has an effect on the ground

#

they fixed the complaint i had

#

where it had no indicator

#

and then murdered you

#

whats that padwarle?

ionic terrace
#

no clue

dense plover
#

ah

#

i see

#

its for the big chests

#

the ones that are locked

ionic terrace
#

ahhh

dense plover
#

they fixed the escape animation for enslaved tolvir

#

they dont stand there for 3 sec anymore

#

they fixed the suntouch obelisk hitbox

ionic terrace
#

lmao

dense plover
#

also I think all the mobs had their hp increased

#

wtf

#

everything is just slower to kill

#

sun obelisks actually have a destroy animation now

#

nvm, just some of the mobs apparently

#

probably stuff they want you to group up for?

#

whats that padwarle?

ionic terrace
#

it's the item for alani

dense plover
#

lol

#

sabatok got abilities

#

so they are now a definitive upgrade

#

and worth grinding

#

tho you can only get maybe 2/week

#

because invasions are weekly

#

and the big bar seems to only reset after weekly reset or when they switch

#

also

#

when you mouse over the corruption thing, it shows where the stats are coming from

#

see how the gloves and cloak have a glowing border?

ionic terrace
#

still no portal out of the SoO area after the vale boss

#

😦

dense plover
#

fuck me

#

thats so bad

ionic terrace
#

i just died and took sickness lol

dense plover
#

no more confirmation

#

i dont like that

#

so i purified the gloves to test if there was a confirmatyion

#

there wasnt

#

im sad now

#

cuz theyre not as good

calm garden
#

its odd that i cant login into the ptr just gets stuck at "loging into game server" anyone else got that issue?

dense plover
#

try quiting and reloading launcher

calm garden
#

il try

uncut vault
#

looks like legendary xmog is already being put in

dense plover
#

interesting

uncut vault
dense plover
upbeat cairn
#

works

dense plover
#

@ionic terrace is there a portal to get down to the big boss?

#

or did they remove that too?

#

oh

#

vilraxx is smaller

ancient jasper
#

o_O Did servers get taken down again?

dense plover
#

no?

#

ill check

#

oh uh

#

yup

#

maybe they crashed...

#

or maybe DKs are supposed to be and theyre fixing it?

#

/s

ancient jasper
#

Heh.. We'll see

#

The Brutosaur thread has 12k unique views and nearly 800 replies now

novel zodiac
#

biggest scam i've ever seen

#

there isn't any other way of name the whole thing but a money grab

#

not even a good one

summer cobalt
#

???

novel zodiac
#

im talking about the Brutosaur

#

they did that shit so people would run to buy tokens

summer cobalt
#

I don't think that's the case

novel zodiac
#

why?

#

you're probably saying that because you already have it

night swift
#

they did it to gold sink

#

to balance the economy a little

summer cobalt
#

No, because 5 mil in wow tokens is $555, and if you have that much money to splurge, then you probs already have it

zealous basalt
#

Tbh its going to be a big community split

#

For one side those that don't have it

#

Other side for those that already have it

#

...Then a small part that doesnt give a fuck

ancient jasper
#

PTR servers are back

zealous basalt
#

Are they?

#

Something new?

ancient jasper
#

Not that I see so far

dense plover
#

probably just some issue they fixed

#

unlikely new content

calm garden
#

wow the servers instantly went back down haha

cyan prairie
#

about that Brutosaur mount - let's be honest, those who don't have it already, probably wouldn't ever get it anyway

sharp gulch
#

or they spent the gold on the other gold sinks before buying bruti

ancient jasper
#

... I bought the WotLK Vendor mount one Expansion later. I bought the MoP Vendor mount 2 Expansions later. I would have eventually saved up for the Brutosaur just like both of those.

sharp gulch
#

^

plain vigil
#

This^^^

sharp gulch
#

for me i also thought: why would i spend 5mil for 1 mount when i can easily buy 15+ mounts with that gold

strange falcon
#

because status symbol of being a richboi

sharp gulch
#

id rather have my status symbol of having over 500 mounts than 1 mount i wont even use

strange falcon
#

then dont buy it o.o

#

it's the same reason as the 2m spider mount

#

it's a goldsink for people with way too much gold

sharp gulch
#

they shouldnt just be removing something thats aimed for a real small part of the playerbase

strange falcon
#

and that leonel boi is known for being generally disruptive or troll-ish

smoky mural
#

You buy the long boi for big dick energy

cyan prairie
#

i wonder

#

if alliance got their own version of AH mount (xD)

#

would it be a normal, or a really big horse?

summer cobalt
#

It's not faction specific

night swift
#

^

cyan prairie
#

it's a Zandalari - themed mount

night swift
#

We dont need 2 versions

summer cobalt
#

Yeah, and it's not faction specific

cyan prairie
#

you didn't get what i mean

#

"their own version"

#

not "the AH mount at all"

summer cobalt
#

Also, Jenny's point of buying 15 mounts with the gold of the longboi is invalid since none of those mounts would have the AH on them

strange falcon
#

theres no giant creature in kultiras tho

cyan prairie
#

there are humans xD

night swift
#

That too

summer cobalt
#

The wicker beasts

cyan prairie
#

too good design for alliance

night swift
#

The giant golems and the AH and vendor are in the golem’s hands

#

Or shoulders

strange falcon
#

you were already very very lucky they let you have wicker druid forms

#

dont push your luck or else blizz will give you a full expac of shadowlands horses

summer cobalt
#

don't threaten us with that

cyan prairie
#

Lul'tiran druid forms aren't that good...

#

moonkin for example

strange falcon
#

still wicker beasts

cyan prairie
#

looks like a KFC chicken from chernobyl

sharp gulch
#

for some people 15 mounts are more valuable than a +1

#

not everyone cares about it having a AH

hasty tendon
#

Honestly, an AH is a really great choice for a gold sink mount.

The only people rich enough to buy it is usually the ones that spend lots of time on the AH, anyway.

It just doesn't matter enough to poor people for us to care, and that's actually kind of a neat setup.

sharp gulch
#

poor people could have been planning to buy it in next expacs similar to the yak and mammoth

hasty tendon
#

Right, but poor people also save lots of time having a Repair Vendor or transmogger right by their side.

They usually don't use the AH enough for that saved time to be worth the investment.

Of course there's the unique model as well
And this is the only utility mount to have a unique skeleton.
So I see your point, I just don't agree with it.

zealous basalt
#

I'm surprised you all follow Mauldrak's discussion when we all know he doesn't really care about anything that isn't horde no matter if we are talking for a general overview of things

errant iron
#

?

#

the richest people in the game are the ones who abused WoD/Legion missions

cyan prairie
#

wasn't farming in WoD just spamming some garrison missions?

strange falcon
#

not really,since you had gold farmers even before

#

but wod/legion contributed to increasing the rich population

errant iron
#

it’s stupid that they’re moving it to BMAH

cyan prairie
#

i hope we'll get gold from WQs like we did in Legion

#

where clearing Broken Isles could give like 10k gold daily

errant iron
#

you get a lot though

#

from emissaries

cyan prairie
#

yeah, that's a good change

strange falcon
#

its not really "stupid" if you consider WHY the brutosaur(or even the spider from legion) were put in,with such a high price

#

it's a goldsink

#

and putting it on the BMAH,only makes it cost more than 5M

#

which enhances its purpose as a goldsink

errant iron
#

yeah so what’s the point of moving it to BMAH where people have to compete for it

cyan prairie
#

so they can pay more for it

errant iron
#

it’s not gonna be there every day either

strange falcon
#

if you have 5M gold,you certainly have a way to farm gold or similar,

#

so a million more or less

#

shouldnt make a difference :P

#

its not like it's an item that will be had by more than the 1% of the games population

errant iron
#

I had around that at the beginning of BfA because of the easy BoE farm, didn’t make it leas valuable to me

#

so yes it matters

strange falcon
#

it doesnt matter to enough people apparently :p

errant iron
#

what do you mean

strange falcon
#

it was put in as a goldsink for people with too much gold,and moving it to BMAH makes it better at its intended purpose

#

the fact people that arent goldfarmers also buy it,doesnt mean thats not its purpose

errant iron
#

then it should’ve been there from the beginning

#

so the rich already have it but the poorer players get to struggle more to get it

#

yay

#

buy tokens plz

strange falcon
#

if you are "poor" you wouldnt even consider getting it

#

since the prohibitive price

errant iron
#

as I said most can probably save up

#

it’s a walking AH

strange falcon
#

as i stated earlier,"the fact people who arent goldfarmers also buy it,doesnt mean it wasnt put into the game as a goldsink"

errant iron
#

you can use it in M+ to save your runs from people who didn’t bring invis pots

cyan prairie
#

you would have to stop buying flasks, food, runes, enchants and gems for raids/M+

#

or farm the gold all time

strange falcon
#

^thats what the richest already do

#

and this mount was intended for them to spend their gold

cyan prairie
#

i'm personally happy with them making it a BMAH mount

#

token's price will go down, and i'll be able to buy a race change for less gold

strange falcon
#

also moving it to the BMAH,almost completely eliminates "people who save up" from the equation

#

since it is implied it will always come at an even higher price and timegated

cyan prairie
#

i think they do it to fix the token price so it can be easier to farm

#

when BfA started the token price went down because of race changes to Mag'har or just buying these 2 expensive mounts

#

if SL doesn't add any new allied race, they need some other way of lowering the price

#

in Legion the token price reached like 370k?

#

lowering token's price might actually be good for them - more new people will see token as "farmable"

zealous basalt
#

Token went unbelievably high these weeks

cyan prairie
#

u in US?

zealous basalt
#

Ye

#

But I heard in EU the price is stupidly high

cyan prairie
#

what's the price there?

#

in EU it's currently 230k

#

so not that high

zealous basalt
#

184k

cyan prairie
#

in Legion, token price in EU went to 370k

zealous basalt
#

Ye

#

Wonder if people will start panic buying for the brutosaur

cyan prairie
#

doubtful

#

it's actually hard to say

#

they can split into 2 groups

#

those who grind gold asap now

#

and those who are "nah, i don't actually need it, but i'll buy it in SL on BMAH"

strange falcon
#

I mean,5M gold is around or more (with inflated token prices) $500+

cyan prairie
#

let's do maths

#

1 token = 20 €

#

1 token = 230k

#

20 tokens = 4,6m gold

#

22 tokens = Brutosaur mount

#

440 € = 488,40 $

#

what was the price in US?

strange falcon
#

184k says mak

cyan prairie
#

and how much $ do you pay for one token?

strange falcon
#

Idk

cyan prairie
#

well nvm

#

still

#

i don't see anyone paying 440€ just to buy an AH mount...

#

(but yeah i know there are people that would and will actually do it)

craggy nexus
#

I need to take the next three months off work to farm and get the funds to buy that mount before it gets removed. I hope they change their mind on that.

cyan prairie
#

they keep changing everything on PTR like every few days

#

like they did with the infinite essence on neck

craggy nexus
#

It would be $550~ for us in the US to get through tokens.

zealous basalt
#

I better buy a pc for that price

#

Also we don't know if something similar will happen on SL

cyan prairie
#

Getting to AH takes like 30 seconds if u HS back to the city?

#

I don't think it's worth spending so much money just to save some tiny amounts of time

#

Does the AH mount have a mailbox built in?

craggy nexus
#

I want the mount not for the AH, but for the collection.

#

It doesn't have a mailbox.

cyan prairie
#

Wtf

#

So you still need to use the mailbox toy

#

Or NB racial

craggy nexus
#

Yes.

cyan prairie
#

Doesn't sound like a good choice...

deep pawn
#

Blizzard better not add a fatigue system to mounts outside of a single stupid mini-quest

zealous basalt
#

Why should they

#

It's not like the mounts have an extra fast speed

deep pawn
#

just going off the items they added

dense plover
#

What items?

#

What are you even talking about?

deep pawn
#

last ptr build

#

Easeflower

#

Ripe Juicycrunch

dense plover
#

Yeah. That’s weird

#

No evidence of any changes

#

Might be items for the devs

#

I very much doubt they would change how all mounts work. Could be part of a temporary mount system

deep pawn
#

As someone who's anti-timegating on pathfinder even, anything that makes flying or mounts annoying in general is a huge red flag

dense plover
#

Except the items aren’t available in game

#

And mounts themselves have had no changes

#

I wouldn’t worry

#

Weird stuff like that is added ALL the time

#

It doesn’t usually mean anything

tranquil steeple
#

am I just stupid, or do I simply not see the items anywhere?

deep pawn
#

mmo-c has it front page

storm marsh
#

This whole patch is a Disneyland for Shadow Priests. Can't wait to have that curve drake

tranquil steeple
#

hm yeah, I see them there, aight.
well, I don't necessarily think they're gonna make changes to all mounts, or the mount system itself

#

and that they're rather just there to encourage you to go "ok, fatigue... maybe I can get these new items and deal with it"

#

otherwise, as peach suggested, maybe it's just dev items

deep pawn
#

but fatigue currently is a way to have "out of bounds" areas

zealous basalt
#

Don't worry about it

deep pawn
#

there's nothing else to do until January except speculate about ptr builds. 😄

tranquil steeple
#

with weird items like those, we're very likely to get some context behind them eventually

zealous basalt
#

And it doesn't mean getting worried over something that will be nothing

deep pawn
#

if people ask questions maybe they'll explain it like they did with the AH mount going away

zealous basalt
#

However we didn't ask about that and they just told us

#

Besides

#

Wouldn't mount fatigue be actually more immersive?

deep pawn
#

not something I care about when it comes to travel.

zealous basalt
#

You

#

But again

#

Minorities never mean much

deep pawn
#

If people want immersive travel experiences, classic is there waiting for you haha

#

aka, "take flight path and afk"

zealous basalt
#

But I want more role things in current wow

#

Either way it would be a weird change

deep pawn
#

it's well known the devs hate flying

#

but it's the players that won't let them remove it

zealous basalt
#

Understandable

#

If I spend a shit ton creating a beautiful environment just for people to fly around and don't care

#

I would be upset

cyan prairie
#

flying kills wpvp

deep pawn
#

Tell that to mechagon and nazjatar

tranquil steeple
#

Optional mounted pvp thonking

deep pawn
#

there's been more world pvp since flying came back then before it probably

#

in bfa

cyan prairie
#

lol no

zealous basalt
#

What

cyan prairie
#

there were full 40v40 raids on assaults all time

zealous basalt
#

Lol

cyan prairie
#

until flying was added

zealous basalt
#

Ye

deep pawn
#

That's more of the fact that assaults don't provide relevant rewards anymore more than flying

zealous basalt
#

So what?

#

People loved it

deep pawn
#

They did it for the free epics, not the pvp

tropic trail
#

I wish BfA didn't have flying

zealous basalt
#

You think so

#

I mean tbh nazj was hell to travel via foot

#

But that was the charm of it

deep pawn
#

Then why are people still doing the CTA massive battles in Nazj and Mechagon each week, cause it gives a relevant reward in conquest.

zealous basalt
#

Because it's fun?

tropic trail
#

As a roleplayer, going on foot in Kul Tiras felt awesome

deep pawn
#

then why do many stop once they get their 25 kills

cyan prairie
#

conquest doesn't give anything useful if you don't have proper pvp rating

deep pawn
#

it still gives heroic gear

cyan prairie
#

heroic gear is nothing

deep pawn
#

for 90% of the playerbase it is

#

something

zealous basalt
#

Bold to assume everyone is useless

deep pawn
#

not a stretch to assume most people don't mythic raid

cyan prairie
#

you can do a +10 with your eyes closed

#

and get a 440 from weekly

zealous basalt
#

There is a big difference between

#

Being casual

#

And being useless

bold granite
#

Plenty of people mythic raid

deep pawn
#

I mean most 430 gear isn't an upgrade to me, but there's always a chance the weekly conquest item titanforges

bold granite
#

Up to ten is easy for at least me to find groups for

#

After that..... ot just sucks though

deep pawn
#

Yes, but outside of maybe the first 3, it's way less than half of all players. Raiding has always been a minority of end game, and mythic is even smaller

zealous basalt
#

Irrelevant of the topic

deep pawn
#

indeed, but I'd still say flying does nothing to inhibit or encourage wpvp.

zealous basalt
#

It does still

deep pawn
#

Mechagon and Nazjatar are full of it and that's with flying

#

give relevant rewards that people want to fight over, and they'll fight

tropic trail
#

I love Deja CharacterStats. Tells me how far till the next item level

deep pawn
#

but most people won't fight for the sake of fighting

tropic trail
#

For example, item level 403.80

cyan prairie
#

hmm...

#

i know how far I am, without an addon xD

zealous basalt
#

Dab

cyan prairie
#

a weekly shield drop away from a new ilvl

tropic trail
#

I said how much you have left till an item level higher

bold granite
#

Oh damn

#

May the odds be ever in your favor @cyan prairie

cyan prairie
#

i think i wasted my whole luck in this tier

#

time to get 53858 cloaks in 8.3

tropic trail
#

I got a titanforged from a world quest. It's currently my highest item

#

Neck doesn't count

cyan prairie
#

what ilvl is it?

tropic trail
#

I don't even remember xD

cyan prairie
#

uhh btw...

#

another difficulty increase for M0s

#

in 8.3

deep pawn
#

to be expected

#

it's bigger cause they're inflating ilvl further

cyan prairie
#

and now we need to do a +15 weekly

#

to get the best rewards

zealous basalt
#

Oh boi

cyan prairie
#

rip gearing alts

deep pawn
#

you can grind gear better than heroics in them

zealous basalt
#

I think it just scales with level

deep pawn
#

we'll be fine getting to 15s

#

nah, base mythic is being increased by 45%

zealous basalt
#

You said it, you can do m10 in a breeze

limber mural
#

m10 isn't actually a challenge for a large % of people

deep pawn
#

so a new +15 will be the same as a +19 is currently

limber mural
#

and those that can't, well not everyone's entitled to the best gear

zealous basalt
#

Git gjd

#

Gud*

deep pawn
#

people who can time a 19 in current gear will time 15s

cyan prairie
#

i think they shouldn't increase the base M0s difficulty if they move the required key to +15 for a weekly item

deep pawn
#

The rest of us will just need to get 30 more ilvl

#

dps is going to skyrocket this tier

zealous basalt
#

2 much buffs

#

Not counting corrupted weapons

cyan prairie
#

hmm maybe

#

let's just hope they balance it properly

deep pawn
#

they're probably just trying to make them as hard as they were the first 2 seasons

#

M+ was much easier this season

cyan prairie
#

what?

normal mango
#

the seasonal affix seems it would be easier than beguiling tbh

cyan prairie
#

S2 was a faceroll

#

when compared to this one

zealous basalt
#

S2

#

Do you mean

#

Die and let Bob salami do his magi?

cyan prairie
#

Bwonzombies were such a fun affix

#

that wasn't as rng as beguiling

limber mural
#

Reaping was easy asf though

#

Be real

deep pawn
#

in terms of +10 affix, reaping was easier, but in overall difficulty, the dungeons were harder last tier cause of no essences.

cyan prairie
#

you could push like +19s without even a proper team

limber mural
#

that's cause it was uhhh

#

easy asf

cyan prairie
#

beguiling feels like a worse and more annoying version of Infested

tranquil steeple
#

beguiling's cool as far as "adapting your route based on the which emissary is primarily present)
but for example a void emissary right in the open with nowhere to LoS, super close to a pack that's hell to pull already, while being unavoidable to pull

#

or the blowback emissary that deals damage back if you damage mobs in the AoE of its aura... yet people still go in full force

cyan prairie
#

or

#

emissary of the tides (the cc-block one) at the annoying pack just before 3rd boss in UR

#

combined with forti/teeming...

#

that's what i hate about beguiling - it's too rng to be fun

tranquil steeple
#

you mean the duo of revenant-esque mobs?

limber mural
#

i mean

#

the answer to that is root

#

and hope to hell you didn't manage one of the like 4 comps in the game that doesn't have a root/CC in it

tranquil steeple
#

pfft, PuG's... THINKING? blasphemous

cyan prairie
#

it doesn't matter if it gets rooted or not, that pack alone was annoying enough

#

you need to do something about that add - someone has to either tank it, or keep rooting it

#

and each second on that pack is more and more dangerous

tranquil steeple
#

mostly only if there's no interrupts used, in my experience

zealous basalt
#

Did someone say

tranquil steeple
#

but yeah it's annoying when the emissary will make an annoying pull even worse

tropic trail
#

BLASPHEMY

zealous basalt
#

No interrupts

cyan prairie
#

yeah, but let's say someone tanks it - they can't interrupt the adds if they're melee

#

and lack of interrupt is an instant death there

tropic trail
#

I hope they give interrupts to healers in Shadowlands

tranquil steeple
#

there was one time I did UR when there was the tides emissary at that pack

#

so I just decided to nuke it as hard as I could to get aggro

#

while the tank pulled the other mobs away

cyan prairie
#

yeah, that's how you usually should do it

tranquil steeple
#

and until they killed them, I healed myself (and them when needed, since I am typically the healer)

#

while still DPS'ing the emissary

tropic trail
#

How to pull a mob:

Normal people: use ranged attack and run in
Warriors: CHAAAAARGE

cyan prairie
#

i'd rather say DHs - meta jump

#

and instant death

tranquil steeple
#

Random mob minding it's business:

Warriors: Tumbleweed charges with obnoxiously loud music in the background

cyan prairie
#

Random mob midning it's business:

Some stupid paladin in party that doesn't understand that not all classes have bubble: "Judgment, bubble, why are you dead?"

tranquil steeple
#

Boss minding it's own business:

Hunters: yeets ranged weapon at boss and feigns death

cyan prairie
#

uh...

#

AD PTSD

#

where some dumb hunter kept using feign death on rezan...

zealous basalt
#

Add of the boss minding it's own business:

Monk's clone: Subtle ora

cyan prairie
#

and killed our healer

limber mural
#

hol up

#

how's that one work

tranquil steeple
#

whuh what

zealous basalt
#

Aggro reset

limber mural
#

you're meant to FD on rezan

#

Oh on the mini raptors

tranquil steeple
#

was it because the boss instead fixated on the healer

zealous basalt
#

Then the tank is stupid

limber mural
#

No, if you get fixated and FD it goes back to tank

cyan prairie
#

if you use FH when boss is fixated on you

#

it changes target

zealous basalt
#

Unless tank can't hold agro

limber mural
#

Wrong

#

Next question

cyan prairie
#

you can't hold aggro

#

it's a fixate attack

zealous basalt
#

Says the dumb tank

limber mural
#

if you FD pursuit

zealous basalt
#

Just take kt

cyan prairie
#

you know how Rezan even works? xD

limber mural
#

it goes straight back to the tank

zealous basalt
#

TAKE IT

tranquil steeple
#

Mak shadup you Human Monk Boomer

zealous basalt
#

Yes I do

limber mural
#

Yes, I've done it a hundred times rofl

zealous basalt
#

I let rezan eat me

tropic trail
#

What have I started

zealous basalt
#

Devour me

limber mural
#

your tanks be sleepin

tropic trail
#

WITH KARMA?

zealous basalt
#

Lick my insides with his rotten tongue

cyan prairie
#

Mak what was the highest key you did?

limber mural
#

FD, SM, are all totally free on rez-

tropic trail
#

Mak you're also a genius

zealous basalt
#

While I have karma of course

limber mural
#

what?

zealous basalt
#

10

#

Rezan

limber mural
#

yo mak can you just go up 2 posts and delet that

dry knot
#

There are multiple ways to avoid devour, if that's what this convo is about

zealous basalt
#

I use a dirty hack that boost my hp over 70% with gladiator trinket

limber mural
#

@dry knot this mans be saying that if you FD, threat resets and it's a death sentence for healer

zealous basalt
#

LET REZAN TAKE ME AND DEFILE ME

tropic trail
#

Kono hentai

zealous basalt
#

coughs

#

Apologies

limber mural
#

y'all be sinning

tranquil steeple
#

mak you fucking human monk boomer weeb go take your medicine

zealous basalt
#

Touch of Karma awakens weird feelings when I'm getting hit

cyan prairie
#

hunter - use the aspect of the cheetah to kite the boss
Hunter: No
uses Feign Death
Rezan - fixates on a poor priest healer that can't even run away

limber mural
#

That's not how it works rofl

tropic trail
#

Do you use Good Karma?

limber mural
#

Your tanks be sleepin

zealous basalt
#

Yes

tropic trail
#

It's really strong

dry knot
#

lul wtf

tranquil steeple
#

I've never been a victim of Rezan re-fixating on me

#

from someone (like Hunters) stopping the fixate effect

limber mural
#

Rezan does not re-fixate, and if your tank isn't an idiot they get threat back

#

Easy

tropic trail
#

I've never been a victim of Rezan

limber mural
#

FD, Shadowmeld are both free ways to deal with that mechanic

#

Always have been

dry knot
#

If you shadowmeld as a nelf for example, it just stops the fixate

tranquil steeple
#

only the actual Fixate cast when it decides I'm the target

dry knot
#

he doesn't choose a new target

zealous basalt
#

Unless it's a starting pull

limber mural
#

i don't think that's the argument, what this mans is saying is the threat table is reset afterwards if you do that

#

which is bizarre

zealous basalt
#

Ah

cyan prairie
#

he does if the FD happens before he starts casting fixate

#

like, he has a cast bar before the fixate attack

zealous basalt
#

No shit

dry knot
#

that is just dumb @limber mural

limber mural
#

Yeah no shit sherlock

tranquil steeple
#

so what you're saying is that

cyan prairie
#

if FD happens before that cast bar ends, he chooses another target

zealous basalt
#

No shit

limber mural
#

Right, so THAT'S what you're saying

#

That's damn obvious

tranquil steeple
#

if he's not ACTUALLY fixated on the hunter and going for them

#

and the hunter FDs

limber mural
#

You wait til pursuit starts then FD

tranquil steeple
#

THEN he selects a new target

zealous basalt
#

The hunter is an eediet

limber mural
#

Everyone knows that who isn't a chimpanzee

tranquil steeple
#

AS INTENDED

zealous basalt
#

It's konosuba levels of eediot

tranquil steeple
#

and not that he suddenly swaps to the healer in every case of a hunter FD'ing the Fixation

zealous basalt
#

Kinkshame him everyone

limber mural
#

yeah the fixate is regardless of role/threat

cyan prairie
#

no shit

tranquil steeple
#

the fixate literally just rolls a dice

#

you got fixated? run or deal with it

zealous basalt
#

Hunter was trolling probs

cyan prairie
#

did i say that it always targets a healer? no

zealous basalt
#

LET HIM DEVOUR YOU

tropic trail
#

Mak likes being eaten >.>

limber mural
#

Mak needs to stop

dry knot
#

btw, what's the strongest racial for m+? has to be shadowmeld as of rn

tropic trail
#

Why aren't you always ganked by unded?

cyan prairie
#

i just said that boss killed healer instead, because hunter FDed before the attack started

limber mural
#

@dry knot Honestly I'd say that or Light's Judgement

zealous basalt
#

Who says I don't

cyan prairie
#

there is no strongest M+ racial tbh

#

they change depending on affixes

zealous basalt
#

Who says I don't drop myself in org just for funs

tropic trail
#

I think the troll racial is

limber mural
#

well lightforged racial is the funny 120k dps button for me

tropic trail
#

So much haste

dry knot
#

but you can dodge so many mechanics with shadowmeld

tranquil steeple
#

so the healer was a dumbass for not noticing the fixate changed target

limber mural
#

well i'm a lightforged hunter so

#

i get both of those

tranquil steeple
#

because the intended mechanic to lock in the fixation

zealous basalt
#

It was a group problem

tranquil steeple
#

was interrupted by the hunter FD'ing

zealous basalt
#

Hunter was a troll

cyan prairie
#

or, he was a priest that had no mobility to run away from the boss?

zealous basalt
#

Healer was dumb

#

Tank didn't give a fuck

#

My verdict

tranquil steeple
#

and not having any sort of mobility (which you can spec into)

zealous basalt
#

Git gud

cyan prairie
#

mak, you're bad at baiting

tropic trail
#

Priests are slow by default xD

limber mural
#

You started off saying 'hunters lol'

tranquil steeple
#

which is again, healer's fault in that case

limber mural
#

What you were actually saying was 'idiot players lol'

zealous basalt
#

Hunters are bad

limber mural
#

You started off showing mad ignorance of game mechanics but obviously weren't communicating what you meant to say enough

#

now you did

#

congrats

tranquil steeple
#

the hunter could have timed the FD better, yes, which is fine to complain about

#

but the hunter is not to blame for the healer not paying attention to themselves being fixated

cyan prairie
#

yeah and that's what i'm saying

tranquil steeple
#

and not having specced into mobility

tropic trail
#

Is it THAT hard to run behind pillars? Honestly, Rezan is the easiest encounter

cyan prairie
#

wrong mechanic Lyo

limber mural
#

...behind pillars? for the fixate?

cyan prairie
#

it wasn't the fear spell

#

but fixate attack

#

WHICH CAN'T BE TAUNTED @zealous basalt

limber mural
#

honestly i have no idea what the inside part of rezan's room is like

#

and i'll never bother to learn

zealous basalt
#

And who said it can be taunted

cyan prairie
#

you did

zealous basalt
#

I didn't know you mean the whole fixate stuff

limber mural
#

just like i'll never bother to learn what the middle pack of the platform in atal'dazar mid does

cyan prairie
#

that it was tank fault that rezan focused on healer with his fixate attack

dry knot
#

lol this entire convo was about fixate mak

tropic trail
#

You guys should run the dungeon together xD

cyan prairie
#

i ain't boosting anyone

limber mural
#

At that point we all thought you were saying when fixate drops due to FD, rezan goes for healer due to threat

cyan prairie
#

not anymore

zealous basalt
#

I said it was tanks fault for being stupid by making that group of fails

limber mural
#

You never made clear you meant re-fixate due to timing

cyan prairie
#

Hunter uses FD too early, so boss fixates on healer instead

#

TANK FAULT

limber mural
#

that was at the point you were miscommunicating

tropic trail
#

I assume the boss getting taunted mid fixate then resuming to fixate is what he meant

tranquil steeple
#

healer dies because not paying attention, actually healer's fault, not hunter

limber mural
#

egh i'm done with this conversation tbqh

zealous basalt
#

It's the whole groups faul

#

And it's maul's fault to make this convo

#

In the fucking Ptr channel

tropic trail
cyan prairie
#

actually i didn't make it

tranquil steeple
#

it branched off of talking about the increase to base M0 difficulty

cyan prairie
#

ye

zealous basalt
#

Still

tranquil steeple
#

so it slowly went to this, but it wasn't just suddenly "SO THIS M+ I DID GOT FUCKED ONCE"

cyan prairie
#

Mak it was actually you who started it, because you read something wrong

dry knot
#

do we know what the max ilvl from the chest will be in 8.3 btw?

tranquil steeple
#

and tbf we all kinda did get too riled up in the conversation itself

cyan prairie
#

475 probably

tranquil steeple
#

up to 475, from +15

#

iirc

dry knot
#

right, ty

tranquil steeple
dry knot
#

just saw it myself

#

ty

deep pawn
#

it does feel a bit weird that they're letting you grind gear better than most heroic bosses

dull flame
#

😰

#

they expanding the endgame

#

so instead of just raiding you can skip raids and do endgame m+

#

i just hope they increase ilvl rewards for WQ coz of the new raid increase in ilvl

deep pawn
#

they will

#

WQs will probably go up to 400 ilvl and emissaries to 430

dull flame
#

it bugs me that every alt need to go thro that 370 395-400-415 run before doing m+/Heroics

cyan prairie
#

they kept doing it for whole expansion

#

so they will do it this time too

dull flame
#

and heart lvl too

#

having to grind alts again is a pain in the arse

#

one more quest boost to get atleast 60 after patch would be nice

cyan prairie
#

having to grind essences is a pain even bigger than gearing them

dull flame
#

true

cyan prairie
#

especially due to some of them being timegated

dull flame
#

but im fine with essence farm they just need to ease up abit on requirements

#

i needed to pvp like a retard for the best PVE essence

#

coz it costed leg and kidney

#

and next patch it was not that interesting anymore Y_Y

cursive sun
cyan prairie
#

it would be easier if we could read it...

cursive sun
#

wait a second

cyan prairie
#

hard to tell

#

seems like a logical combo, but idk if we have any information about double effects on items

cursive sun
#

if become double effect,,it maybe need more time to get best one

#

it will need more time at M+ or raid...

cyan prairie
#

how much corruption does other item with a single effect give?

strange falcon
#

depending on ilvl

#

it should either be 22 or 25 at highest ilvl

cursive sun
#

one is level 1 , one is level 2 i think?

cyan prairie
#

it would make sense for items with multiple effects to give more corruption

#

if it gives the same amount of corruption as other items that give only one effect, then it'll be probably changed

cursive sun
#

i am not sure +22 is level 1 plus level 2

#

if +22 is level 1+level 2 , it maybe make sence

#

it give more option to make best gear..
