cyan prairie
#

which boss drops it?

cursive sun
#

i do not know , i found it in our guild drop information

cyan prairie
#

it has 2 sockets on wowhead

#

maybe it is a bug that it has 2 effects, idk

#

nvm i looked up wrong item

#

still, 2 socket slots

cursive sun
#

so..it bug..

cyan prairie
#

probably

normal mango
#

maybe they're from the assault caches which were recently changed to say "Contains Coalescing Visions, currencies and a chance for a corrupted item."

#

that would make the assaults quite appealing then

cyan prairie
#

yeah it's possible too

#

especially since it has quite low ilvl

cursive sun
#

i want believe it not bug, because it give more option , but i also want it bug.because it will need quadratic time to stay in M+ and raid..

cyan prairie
#

if it's not a bug, then we're going to have a chance for multiple "titanforges" and ppl don't seem to like that idea...

cursive sun
#

yeah ... agree..

zealous basalt
#

.probs a bug...report it?

dense plover
#

almost definitely a bug

#

wait

#

does it have that in game?

#

it could just be the site

cyan prairie
#

it has 2 effects in game, while wowhead shows 2 socket slots instead

dense plover
#

2 corruption effects?

cyan prairie
#

aye

dense plover
#

might not be a bug

cursive sun
#

2 socket = 2 effects. it looke same

dense plover
#

hard to say

#

did it proc the correct amount of corruption?

#

i would report it just in case

#

oh, no it didnt

#

it gained an extra effect

#

but no extra corruption

cursive sun
#

it didnt

dense plover
#

definitely a bug

cursive sun
#

yeah

dense plover
#

report it

cursive sun
#

i prefer to wait , may be more item like that?

dense plover
#

uh

#

use the ingame bug report

#

dont wait

#

thats not how bugs work

#

report each thing individually

#

reporting en masse is not helpful

zealous basalt
#

Too much kiss

#

Not much curse

cursive sun
#

okay , i will

#

i still want to believe it is a option~,yeah i also believe it is bug..

dense plover
#

two procs might be an option

#

but it didnt proc a second amount of corruption

zealous basalt
#

I don't think 25 corruption is balanced for 2 effects

strange falcon
#

you get 25 for 1 weapon

dense plover
#

its the amount of one effect

strange falcon
#

with 1 effect

dense plover
#

it didnt proc more corruption when it added a second effect

#

so either it shouldnt add a 2nd effect

#

or if it does, it needs to proc corruption again

normal mango
#

I'm curious as to where those bracers dropped, the assault gives the 425 blue version.

cursive sun
#

from a worldquest

#

a world quest at Vale of Eternal Blossoms

normal mango
#

ok thanks

dense plover
#

the assaults dont give items directly anymore

#

they can give 430 corrupted gear

#

they now both give boxes

#

which when opened give coalesced visions

#

and can give other stuff

#

the nzoth one I think always gives gear

#

which can be corrupted OR can proc corruption

#

in this case I think it accidentally did both

dense plover
#

OOOOooo

#

assaults are no longer synced to each other

#

vale and uldum are on different schedules

#

nzoth assault has 3 more days

#

but uldum just switched to the aqir assault today

tranquil steeple
#

I actually wonder if there's some event in the zone right before Assault begins

#

Just something simple like, if using N'zoth assault as example, a herald yelling something about embracing the truth of N'zoth or whatever

dense plover
#

nope

#

its like when an alliance invasion happens

#

it just starts

#

this assault also covers the largest area

#

daily rewards are literally total shit tho

#

its so bad

#

idk why theyre so bad

#

like 160ap, 50 gold and 12 coalescing visions and 75 rep

#

regular WQs give more

#

and these dailies are harder to complete

#

its fucking nonsense

#

if they dont change these, theyre gonna end up patching them very quickly after they release the patch because the number of complaints will be overwhelming

ionic terrace
#

hopefully still WIP

dense plover
#

fuck I hope so

#

its kind of unacceptable

#

they made sense when you needed 100 coalescing visions

#

but you need 1000 now

ionic terrace
#

well the invasions do give 1k

#

lol

#

I guess Zidormi will be placed with Cho after all

dense plover
#

only the nzoth one gives 1000

ionic terrace
#

well damn

#

actually

dense plover
#

and?

ionic terrace
#

and what

dense plover
#

nothing

#

my brain is dumb

ionic terrace
#

lol

#

So is mine, just left Vale to go to Uldum, take the Org portal to Jade instead

dense plover
#

WQ, not daily

#

sorry

ionic terrace
#

Still no idea how you get the Sliver of N'zoth

#

Did you do the storyline quest?

dense plover
#

the crafting thing?

ionic terrace
#

No the Orsis

dense plover
#

also BoA random drops had the ilvl upped to 410

#

orsis?

#

what about it?

ionic terrace
#

There's a quest like chen and lili and the others

#

Questline

dense plover
#

ah

#

im working on that

ionic terrace
#

ok šŸ˜„

dense plover
#

ill let you know if I figure it out when I get there

ionic terrace
#

i'min warmode

dense plover
#

oof

ionic terrace
#

sorry 😦

dense plover
#

why?

ionic terrace
#

was trying to figure out the Sliver thing

#

for having the Eye

dense plover
#

oh

#

my eye got wiped at some point

#

😦

ionic terrace
#

oof

dense plover
#

requires you to go further in

#

probably requires later bosses

eager cradle
dense plover
#

yeah

#

it doesnt work tho

#

wont let you actually play them

eager cradle
#

Yes but the Mog looks better on my Vulpera than on my Belf

tropic trail
#

That hair color ... so nice

#

All my hope goes into black hair for night elves

#

Or better res in hair because I know they have to comb it even if it’s with a damn stick. I keep wanting to see if they will show us more options v.v guess we gotta wait till the new year

dense plover
#

definitely gotta wait

worn hedge
#

Found this on PTR, not sure if it's been reported on yet. Pandaren death knights immediately choose their faction at character creation, even though you still have to trick the game into letting you customize a panda death knight

zealous basalt
#

It's a feature

#

They start horde or alliance

worn hedge
#

Yeah, it's like creating a class trial with a Pandaren where you get to choose right away. Thought it was funny that it's already been implemented even though you still can't directly choose death knight on a panda

dense plover
#

i mean

#

its literally already there for creating a boosted pandaren

#

for all we know it might be automatic

#

since DKs start at 58

novel zodiac
#

that might be like that because you chose your faction at the end of the starting area

jade basalt
#

Yeah the pandaren starting zone from MoP is time-locked. It wouldn't make sense if you were raised in BFA/Shadowlands and then were sent back to MoP to progress on the Wandering Isle and then choose your faction and then die at some point to be raised as a DK and- wait we're stuck in a loop.

night swift
#

They also said pandas and ar dks will be in the new starting area

#

Which most likely is ā€œfourth war soldiersā€ are raised by Bolvar

storm marsh
#

Why is everyone saying 4th war? Vulperas were not there

zealous basalt
#

They were part of

storm marsh
#

Or i guess

zealous basalt
#

But not participated

storm marsh
#

My bad. Voldun campaign etc

night swift
#

Idk if fourth war is exact since mechagnomes and vulpera aren’t technically with the factions yet, but it does make sense for all the others

ionic terrace
#

4th war and beyond

#

To cover for any future races they add

uncut vault
#

well, its not very beyond

#

mainly just lasts up till the end of BfA, timeline wise, so all the races from now on had best be pre-existing ones and not asspulls

ionic terrace
#

Gnoll DKs

#

Wait, Lightforged Void Mechanagnoll Dks

deep pawn
#

which is why it's safe to assume one more pair of allied races in 8.3.5

strange falcon
#

Also to add to that

#

The banners in the embassies are skewed

#

And they're an odd number,from how they're placed so i can see an AR in 7.3.5 and to add to that,theres 1 space remainig on the char creation screen

#

@deep pawn

cyan prairie
#

and one of the races still needs an AR

strange falcon
#

*2 namely undead & worgen

cyan prairie
#

one on each side*

#

that's what i meant

deft carbon
languid yoke
#

please don't what

#

oh I see it

#

blizz please don't

zealous basalt
#

Is that the snarl

strange falcon
#

glowy eyes i guess

languid yoke
#

the white dot

dull flame
#

having red eyes no scars ... lame

storm marsh
#

Please don't what? šŸ˜‚

#

White dot?

#

They probably wanted to fit the puppy eyes from female version

sage rivet
#

Looks fine imo. Not that different. Didn’t even know what you were talking about at first

ancient jasper
#

Interesting.. Looks like the Transformation you have when using Dark Ranger's Spare Cowl is also getting updated eyes?

uncut vault
#

It’s more of a side effect of removing the old eye textures atm

#

Elf skins without new eyes are now missing them

#

Including dark rangers, high elves, and druids of the flame

dense plover
#

^

uncut vault
#

some of them are mildly terrifying

zealous basalt
#

Oh gods

ancient jasper
#

o_o

#

It's.. It's looking in to my soul.

#

Ah, good to know Portregauge.

tribal sand
#

cause i found nothing about it yet

#

and scrapping a 445 season 4 azerite piece gives u 40 residuum

dense plover
#

uh

#

mine doesnt do that

#

did they change the thing to add the 2nd thing?

tribal sand
#

just upgraded it from 5 to 7 right before i uploaded the picture here

#

when did u upgrade yours?

dense plover
#

recently

#

it does not have that secondary proc

#

i probably got it before they added that

tribal sand
#

the name of the proc is Draconic Empowerment (ID: 317859 or 317860)
2 different buffs but only one gives me the agility; the other seems useless but procs more often even if it does nothing right now

#

the 317860 one procs while doing nothing; just standing somewhere out of fight gives me the proc

dense plover
#

one is probably the sanity loss one

#

the other is new

tribal sand
#

but the sanity loss is not a proc

#

but they both were included with the recent build 32593

dense plover
#

hmmm

#

weird

#

maybe its gonna be tied to a visual

#

like the wings with the other wrathion cloak?

tribal sand
#

yeah this could be possible; should unmog it to test

#

ok no visual right now

storm marsh
#

Do you guys think there is an encrypted Bolvar new model for new DK AR scenario prepared? Or they're leaving it for 9.0 (or 8.3.5 if there will be one)

#

waiting to be released alongside new voiceovers

tribal sand
#

i guess they are waiting with a new model for pre patch or addon release

dense plover
#

nah

#

its almost definitely gonna be in this

#

well

#

hmmm

#

maybe not

#

since his updated model is after the helm is removed

#

they might have a semi-hd model

#

not as good as say sylvanas or something

tropic trail
#

I hope his sweet runic facial marks will stay on his WoW model

dense plover
#

but better than the old wrath model

#

those will probably be part of the new model

#

but the DK scenario takes place before the helm is removed

tropic trail
#

"Aigh Imma 'bout to head out. Want something from Wendy's, Timmy?"
Timmy the ghoul: "Vulpera!"
"Hmmm... yes."

dense plover
#

what?

tropic trail
#

Randomness

#

I mean, he couldn't raise AR and pandaren without heading out, right?

#

Unless his scourge brought the corpses

dense plover
#

or you know, the DKs?

#

like, the ones from legion?

#

who clearly work for him?

tropic trail
#

His scourge, that's what I said

#

They kinda count

#

Wouldn't it have been funny if Sylvanas found Bolvar still chilling in a block of ice?

dense plover
#

wouldnt really make sense

#

since we saw him melting

#

and wouldve been lame

tropic trail
#

It's not meant to be a "what if" scenario, just a joke to pass the time

storm marsh
#

yeah there should be 2 versions. first one with helm on

#

i can see clueless people asking why does he still have the helm on

dense plover
#

well, itll only be confusing once the shadowlands stuff happens

#

and only if youre dumb

#

or just dont read ANY quest text

storm marsh
#

wotlk dk starting zone stays in shadowlands right?

dense plover
#

yes

tropic trail
#

Surprised Sylvanas didn't kill him with her Warcraft 3 "Give my regards to hell, you son of a b" quote

uncut vault
#

beyond plot convenience, it's still a mystery as to why she left him alive

#

probably ties into the question of why she chose now to open the rift

#

Also, there is the possibility of Bolvar getting a new model

#

this was added in the most recent build

#

ICECROWN_LAVAMAN_SIT_COLLISION.m2

strange falcon
#

lavaman khadgarface

warm rock
#

I mean they are not wrong

#

Lavaman and shark girl

red raft
#

Love that Lavaman has been his filename since 3.3. Back in the day when I used to model swap and such; pretty sure that was my first one I did lmao. Human > Lavaman 3.3 I think it was hahah.

strange falcon
#

Well the forsaken playable race were called in vanilla(and still are)
"Scourge_undead" because initially the team didnt understand how they were different while metzen was like "they're super different!" @red raft

red raft
#

Hahah. "Just do it, don't ask questions"

native bone
#

How do I access the assaults and the city visions on the PTR?

dense plover
#

do the story quests

#

must be 120

lean yew
#

ima need the ptr build after the holidays to have vulpera rummage racial implemented pls

#

i need to know what the other items do

normal niche
#

yikes the corruption system is scary.

dense plover
#

Not really

#

It’s kiss/curse

#

If you want to ignore it, you can build up resistance

normal niche
#

at least imo

novel zodiac
#

just keep the good corrupted items until you fully upgraded the legendary cloak

dense plover
#

Or even part way

#

The first corruption effect is pretty minor

tropic trail
#

Unless they have low ILVL

#

Then use them either way

dense plover
#

Then you replace them with higher ilvl later

#

Ilvl is separate from corruption

tropic trail
#

Oh

dense plover
#

So high ilvl doesn’t mean more corruption

#

It’s a separate proc

tropic trail
#

I thought the higher item level, the bigger corruption level

dense plover
#

Except for the weapons - those are always 25 corruption

#

Nope

#

Corruption level is based on the strength of the effect

tropic trail
#

I see

dense plover
#

It’s a separate proc that is replacing titan forging

tropic trail
#

Still not up to speed on what the good effects are

dense plover
#

Things like 4% total crit increase

#

There’s a list

tropic trail
#

If there's mastery increases, I'm a happy monk

#

Carp, he went to look for the list

dense plover
#

Here

#

List of possibilities

#

ā€œ
Your Avoidance is increased by an amount equal to X% of your Haste.
Increases the amount of Haste you gain from all sources by X%.
Increases the amount of Mastery you gain from all sources by X%.
Increases the amount of Critical Strike you gain from all sources by X%.
Increases the amount of Versatility you gain from all sources by X%.
X% of total Health Regeneration now continues during Combat.
Increases your healing received from all sources by X%.
Increases your Leech by X%.
Your spells and abilities have a chance to grant you a Flash of Clarity, reducing the cooldown of your next 3 spells cast by 2 sec.
Increases the damage you deal with Critical Strikes by X%.
Reduces your damage taken from periodic effects by X%ā€

tropic trail
#

I CALLED IT

dense plover
#

X is 2,3,4

#

Corruption amounts are in ranges

#

I think

#

They might’ve changed that

tropic trail
#

Imagine getting a mastery effect from every piece as WW :O

dense plover
#

Good luck making that happen

#

You’ll be grinding forever

#

Also you would be missing out on some of the other beneficial effects like the increased crit and increased crit damage

#

Which are good for monks

zealous basalt
#

That's actually bad luck

#

What you need is vers effect

tropic trail
#

How? Mastery increases damage dealt

#

As long as I don't use the same ability twice

tribal sand
#

corruption level is not based on the strength of the effect
its a random proc too
its always there if u have a bonus but if its 5, 10 or 25 corruption depends on ur luck

plain vigil
#

Big problem with corruption is it encourages people to hoard loot

tribal sand
#

and to mention its not worth a ilvl tier (15 ilvl) to get an effect except crit dmg
cause 4% more mastery from all sources are 80 more mastery
thats really close to the 15 ilvl

strange falcon
#

@tribal sand actually no,the corruption depends on ilvl

tribal sand
#

no it doesn't

strange falcon
#

Ion scrapped the corruption ranges a bunch ago

#

Wowhead has the post on it

#

With "tiers"

tribal sand
#

yes cause there were ranges now the ranges are fixed corruption stats like 5, 15 and 25
which one u get is random

dense plover
#

No it isn’t

#

It’s based on the strength of the effect

#

You do not get max corruption and weakest effect

#

Weakest effect is lowest corruption

#

I know

#

I’ve gotten several corrupted items on ptr

tribal sand
#

me too

dense plover
#

Since they made the changes this build?

tribal sand
#

only 1 since the last build
did they change this again?

dense plover
#

Yes

#

Corruption is based on strength of effect

#

Low corruption for low strength

#

Mid for mid

#

High for high

#

Weapons are static

tropic trail
#

Gettin' high on corruption

#

SMOKIN'

tribal sand
#

ok thx for the information mate
did i miss a bluepost there or was it just not announced?

dense plover
#

They announced a while ago in a bluepost

tribal sand
#

ok found it nevermind

ionic terrace
#

Wonder if they will push a build this week

ionic terrace
dense plover
#

i thought it was on the table

#

like a hologram emitter

ionic terrace
#

Nah it's behind

#

Let me get a better angle

dense plover
#

you should probably report it

#

its probably supposed to be in the same line as all the others

ionic terrace
#

yeah

dense plover
#

yeah thats clipping too

ionic terrace
#

it's just plopped there

dense plover
#

definitely not intentional

ionic terrace
#

They should just remove the table tbh

#

or move it back and remove the chairs

cyan prairie
#

or remove the banner šŸ¤”

plain vigil
#

Tread lightly young orc

ionic terrace
#

in other news this looks pretty cool

#

though the tabard is a bit off šŸ˜›

thick saddle
#

DKs (especially on Allied Races), needs additional customizations, to make them look more evil (new faces), as well as the darker skin tones

night swift
#

Well SL is bringing more options so it might happen

tropic trail
#

Honestly it would be cool if you could unlock. Customizable appearances.

#

Like through the tower and you can find them in chests šŸ¤”

#

Or mobs can drop what ever and you go turn it in to the barber or something

uncut vault
#

shadowlands is currently getting no allied race customization, sadly

thick saddle
#

Currently? Beta hasn't even begun for Shadowlands, we don't know anything about what might be included (beyond what is already announced). We're likely at least 9 months away from release, maybe a year.

ionic terrace
#

they said only for core races at blizzcon

thick saddle
#

And in past years, they've said plenty of things that never came to pass... Dance Studio, Path of Titans, to name a few. Things change šŸ˜›

ionic terrace
#

Don't get me wrong, I would like it but idk, don't see it happening

#

maybe in 9.1 or something

uncut vault
#

Currently, with the knowledge blizzard has given us, we are not getting allied race customization at launch. And Im fairly sure blizzard has never given us something extra that they said wouldnt be coming.

#

the stuff you cited were the other way around

#

cut content =/= additional content

thick saddle
#

Don't recall them ever saying we'd get Mechagnomes or Vulpera as allied races... but lo and behold, getting them in 8.3

uncut vault
#

what does that have to do with this conversation at all lmao

#

blizzard saying we are getting content and then cutting it has no equivalence to blizzard explicitly saying we arent getting content and then deciding to add it.

#

the latter has never happened

thick saddle
#

Quoting you...
Im fairly sure blizzard has never given us something extra that they said wouldnt be coming.
And I just proved you wrong. Pretty sure that's relevant to the conversation, Mr lmao

uncut vault
#

pleace cite where they said "we are not getting mechagnomes and vulpera as allied races"

#

because that is the current discussion

thick saddle
#

Please cite where they said "we are not getting allied race customizations"

uncut vault
#

We are not touching Allied Races at this time, we are focusing on the main races. There are no plans to expanding custom DK customization at this point.

thick saddle
#

The current discussion began, with me expressing a wish that we'd get more customizations for DKs as Allied Races (with the darker skin tones etc). Never said anything about expecting them to actually add that stuff anytime soon (if ever). DKs for the Core Races have darker skin tones, so one assumes that the Allied DKs should have them as well.

#

"Custom DK customization" = Darker skin tones and unique faces, I assume?

That last bit, "There are no plans" ... Plans change all the time

#

Also Mr lmao... Nowhere in your quoted article, does it say anything about them not including the same DK features for Allied Races that Core Races already have. It's not about expanding the features for DK, but giving the same features across all races.

uncut vault
#

Blizzard going back on their statements has never resulted in more content. As much as I dearly wish we were getting more allied race customization, since they sorely need it, its almost certainly not happening.

thick saddle
#

In your opinion.

uncut vault
#

In Blizzard's opinion.

thick saddle
#

I expressed a desire for DK Allied Races to have access to the same customizations as Core Races. Nothing more. Yet you seem adament to prove "your point", just to be a dick about it.

#

Show me one source that says DK Allied Races won't get the same things that DK Core Races already has, and I'll back off this argument.

uncut vault
#

I never said that stuff like that isnt happening, or cited a source for that. The conversation was not solely about that. My first response was to jhock

thick saddle
#

Blizzard saying, "We're not touching allied races"while simultaneously giving Allied Races access to DK class, is fairly contradictory.

tropic trail
#

it is not

#

AR DK are a 8.,3 thing

#

new customizations are coming with the new xpac

thick saddle
#

Both require the prepurchasing of Shadowlands, regardless of when you get access to it

#

And it is contradictory to say "We're not touching Allied Races" who might have 5 classes now, but simultaneously giving them a 6th class.

distant folio
#

I mean you're leaving the context out here

#

"We're not touching allied races" was in regards to the customization that they are giving to all races. Allied races are not getting additional customization like the main races.

thick saddle
#

Cba to care at this point.

I just stated an opinion on something I'd like to see added, and Porter went off on his dickish rant about why that won't happen

#

It's not unreasonable to expect, that DK Allied Races would have the same customization access they have with Core Races (such as darker skin tones). Has nothing to do with "expanding" Allied Race customizations.

#

An expansion of Allied Race customizations, would be allowing DK Dark Iron Dwarves to have Blue firey hair/facial hair, in addition to the red firey hair/facial hair

tropic trail
#

But if they would add the same customization options from the Core races (if you are talking about the new ones that are going to be added in shadowlands) for the AR DKs, why would they not do the same for normal AR including all classes?

thick saddle
#

Que?!?

Normal Allied Races, don't have "DK only" customizations (darker skin tones, extra faces)

DK only customizations should follow, regardless of if it's a Core Race or Allied Race.

#

If a Dwarf DK has a grey skin tone option, then a Dark Iron Dwarf DK should have access to the same grey skin tone.

Makes sense doesn't it?

tropic trail
#

so you are talking about the extra customizations that Dks usually have, in the same way as the Core Races for the AR dks?

#

Because Im sure they will get those with 8.3

thick saddle
#

DK + Allied Races on the PTR, don't currently have the "DK Only" custom features

tropic trail
#

oh ok. Well I dont know then

#

what I know is that the ARs dont getting new customization options as the core races will with shadowlands

thick saddle
#

The darker skin tones for DK, are a result of having... died... and been resurrected (not unlike a certain Undead type race). Doesn't make much sense why a Pandaren DK wouldn't have access to the darker skin tone options for example.

tropic trail
#

And I think adding new customizations options for AR Dks just in shadowlands would be kinda weird, so I thought they will come with 8.3

#

maybe it will be added with later builds, idk

#

btw

thick saddle
#

I never said anything about adding more stuff for Allied Race DKs in Shadowlands. I was well aware AR DKs are being added in 8.3. I was suggesting they should have the same custom features that regular Core Race DKs have.

tropic trail
#

how can a Panda have a darker skin tone?

thick saddle
#

Maybe Pandaren was a bad example, but the point remains... An AR DK should have certain features, that a regular AR... doesn't.

Just like regular DKs have certain features that the other classes for Core Races don't.

tropic trail
#

Sure, they should

tranquil steeple
#

with 8.3 set to go live soon after new year aka in January, I feel like they're just currently focusing on catching any potential bugs with ARs being able to become DKs, and later on adding the DK-only customization

#

or, at the very least, that's what I HOPE is the case

thick saddle
#

Considering they've already made multiple changes to the Corrupted gear stuff, adding the DK-only features is fairly minor and simple to implement.

#

8.3 is likely out in Mid-January (after the current event is over). With holidays coming soon, I expect another 3-4 weeks before they take a break. Plenty of time.

AR Dks definitely should have new skin colors, new faces, different hair styles/colors

thats probably about it

seems like a joke about how Mechagnomes have a jack of all (profession)trades racial

It's a reference to the movie The 5th Element

that is probably way more likely

Huh, I think mechagnomes are the only race that doesn't start with all their racials

dense plover

they dont?

ionic terrace

nope

they learn the two actives at 24

wonder why

ionic terrace
#

I feel like it's a bug but it's been like this

maybe they dont want them being used in the starter zone?

Pretty sure they did confirm early next year, so like January probably

maybe on 15th or 22nd january

It better be the 7th right after the anniversary event ends

best business decision would be 7th

how many horrific cores do you get per week in the PTR?

Once you get your cloak to a certain point you have to go further in

Well someone took a picture at the blizzard HQ at blizzcon, and it got posted on Twitter but removed very quickly, some people got hold onto it, but couldn’t resist keeping it to themselves, which is understandable

Depends on how far you get
Once you get your cloak to a certain point you have to go further in
is it reasonable to expect 9 cores in a month if you're a good player? or is that just not possible because of gating etc?

Oh cool

@novel zodiac alex jones of wow

#

If you're talking about the Major Power, @neat idol , it's supposed to copy the Major Power of another player and then put the Formless Void on a cooldown that's longer than whatever it copied.

Its primary purpose seems to be using Essence Powers your own spec wouldn't usually be able to, like Aegis of the Deep as a Healer or Focused Azerite Beam as a Tank.

MAYBE one the week before xmas but unlikely

and then the patch itself the 7th or 14th, depends if we see a release build before xmas or not

I'd anticipate they tell us in december when it launches, but who knows

i really hope that they release it in december

If they get 1-2 weeks off for Christmas that's only 2 more weeks of work on the patch before it releases on January 7th.. (If it releases then.)

dense plover
#

They don’t

#

They probably get the 24th-1st off

#

It’s the US, not EU

#

So we probably have 3-4 more builds

#

Maybe more if we get multiple in a single week

#

I'd assume or at least hope they would do the biggest rush of build/s during the week leading up to their break so the lump sum of things they want tested in full is all reported for when they have their final stretch in the new year.

it should be a bug

dont think corruption items can get sockets

these are what I was literally waiting for

less intimidating than the dungeon themes

@tropic trail

im like 100% sure

this is definitely raid music

i love this

why is the main thing standing out to me in that first one 'slightly overtuned bassoon'

@limber mural because blizz loves the bassoon

almost everything was bassoon

its a dark instrument for dark themes

i learned bassoon for about 2 months

was notably unfun

think the music MIGHT be bugged

#

uldum outdoors sounds like ogrimmar

like the corrupted oggrimmar

@ionic terrace

thats where the buff comes from

if you fly lower to the ground you get no problems

also raid portal is creepy now

VULPERA GANG

#

LETS FIND THE TRICKS

dense plover
plain vigil
#

So basically Vulpera are the Ultimate mat farmers @dense plover

dense plover
#

no?

#

8 extra bag spaces is not exactly significant

uncut vault
#

the old one was much better for that

#

because it actually gave bags of mats

#

this is just a nice little bonus

dense plover
#

^

#

the old one was way too powerful

#

it literally made them the best farmers

#

this one is just a nice bonus as porter said

lean yew
#

it was cata mats

#

not particularly amazing imo lol

#

i tried finding some tricks but I didnt see any cause idk what im looking for lmao

normal niche
#

Can't wait to see use their vulpera characters as alts literally meant to farm

dense plover
#

i mean, theres no real advantage there

#

they got rid of the extra mats thing

normal niche
#

oh

modest temple
#

I noticed the spells for the Vulpera poison vial and healing vial have some flavor text on them. I think that's a good way of determining what other Tricks they might collect. Just gotta dig and watch for any other 8.3 spells that have similar text.

lean yew
#

yeah but im not sure of a way to search flavor text.

#

but im curious if theyre all vials, I don't think they are

plain vigil
#

@dense plover each AR has a niche. For example, dark irons are the Ideal tmog farmer because they have run speed in dungeons and a bunch of instance tp's. The reason Vulpera are good Matt farmers isn't just the extra bag space, but also the custom hearth locations.

dense plover
#

Sure, I’m just saying they aren’t getting bonus mats anymore

lean yew
#

it was still cata mats tho

#

did anyone actually want cata mats?

#

lol

storm marsh
#

Heyo, anything interesting in this build? I'll check out the music later. I'd test the ptr myself now but its 4 am. No AR DKs yet?

dense plover
#

No

#

They’re clearly holding off on purpose

storm marsh
#

Oh well. 1 month til release I guess

#

1 month and few more days

plain vigil
#

Actually @lean yew Cata mats may be more valuable in 9.0 for quest gear

dense plover
#

I mean, probably not...

#

Considering anyone doing cata content probably has heirlooms

#

And considering that time from 10-50 with heirlooms will probably be pretty fast

lean yew
#

well

#

Idk where in the world to find any vulpera tricks.

#

or if they're implemented. lol

dense plover
#

Nobody does, and yes they might not be implemented yet

lean yew
#

My first instinct is vol'dun

#

but they could be anywhere

dense plover
#

Probably all deserts at least

#

So voldun, tanaris, uldum

lean yew
#

I presume the secret discord will be all over it

dense plover
#

Maybe some places where scavenging in effective?

#

IE - mechagon, gnomeregan, ulduar

#

It’s probably 1 zone per expac or a zone per continent

#

The real question is how they expect us to learn

#

Hopefully they’ll add hints

lean yew
#

Yeah I think atm it's just not fully implemented

#

I haven't seen anything else w/ any flavor text

#

and ive been watching the misc spells/abilities for quite a few builds now

#

im combing the desert atm

#

its k

thick saddle
#

Combing the desert, ey? šŸ™‚

lean yew
#

me right now

dense plover
#

Hmmm, snakes?

lean yew
#

maybe? lol

#

a bag of snakes

dense plover
#

Uldum or voldun

#

Voldun because sethrakk

#

Uldum because of Indiana Jones references

#

And uldum has gotten a ton of changes with BfA 8,3 so they could’ve easily snuck a thing in

lean yew
#

true

#

it would make sense that other tricks are in vol'dun, uldum and pandaria

#

its hard for me to search that much when I don't see anything new really implemented. lol

tropic trail
dense plover
#

That seems maybe bugged? Hard to tell

#

I would report it

#

Just in case

winged vale
dense plover
#

Gloves seem to be rolling weapon affixes

#

So

#

....

#

Probably bugged

#

Again

#

Gloves were rolling double corruption last build

#

So seems they fixed one thing and broke another

harsh wedge
#

Any item is rolling weapon affixes now

#

same thing ahppened on the trinket earlier (in german)

dense plover
#

Yeah that’s probably not intended

#

It’s probably a result of the multiple levels of weapon affix

harsh wedge
#

I guess it isn't, otherwise you could get a nice upgrade in the chest, but with a +75 corruption on it

#

Insta purified

dense plover
#

I’m honestly not sure that the multiple weapon levels is a good idea

#

It already is difficult getting a good weapon

#

Getting a good weapon with corruption you can handle is even harder

dense plover
#

Yeah it doesn’t seem intentional

#

Probably a bug due to a hanger in the system

harsh wedge
#

Adding it as a random proc on every item seems like it would break the purpose of the special weapons

#

Especially as it can atm proc on things like geti'kku, so a weapon with double proc

dense plover
#

Change not hanger

#

Yeah it’s a bug then

#

Report that shit

#

Be detailed on where it came from

tribal sand
#

holy they changed the lesser vision really much

#

no more stacking sanity reg buff from helping npcs; just flat 40 sanity everytime u help

#

u can see other players now

#

war mode talents are usable

#

no respawning npcs

#

i guess the endless grind of lesser visions is gone now

dense plover
#

You can see other players?

#

That doesn’t sound right

tribal sand
#

yes i saw 2 people in there

dense plover
#

It’s supposed to be solo or small group content

tribal sand
#

1 shaman with an earth elemental and a druid flying over me and waved šŸ˜„

#

i guess war mode talents shouldn t be allowed there too

dense plover
#

Might be broken phasing

tribal sand
dense plover
#

That’s expected

#

It was busted and meant grinding the visions was necessary for raiding

#

Which tbh is actually pretty difficult

tribal sand
#

i don t think the visions are that hard to be honest

#

ok with the change of the sanitydrain stopping food its really hard to play the vision now
rank 10 cloak and only 2 events doable is a massive bummer without using a mask

dense plover
#

The minor ones aren’t

#

But I guess having it have other people makes some sense for mini bosses and such

#

The major ones you definitely need a group of you want to go further

#

The real problem I see currently is that you can only run a major vision once, maybe twice a week

#

And they’re really the only way to get enough cloak skills

tribal sand
#

yeah that sux; they said they wanted it to be comparable if u play it solo

dense plover
#

So getting that higher is going to be several weeks of the same few bosses before you can finally push to the next area in a horrific vision

tribal sand
#

i think they changed it so u only get the cloak upgrade from the first vision of the week

dense plover
#

Pretty sure you just stop getting minor ones after level 10

#

And major only come from side bosses

#

Which at lvl 10 are honestly pretty difficult

tribal sand
#

which side bosses u mean? the 4 events inside the horrific vision?

dense plover
#

I think they need to add more coalescing vision drops or increase the current ones

#

Yes the 4 other bosses

#

That’s where the lvl 2 page comes from

tribal sand
#

u need 3 lvl 2 pages for the upgrade from 10 to 11, so no changes there

dense plover
#

Yeah it’s really hard

tribal sand
#

i could finish all 4 side bosses and thrall with a lvl 5 cloak

dense plover
#

There’s honestly a massive jump in difficulty

tribal sand
#

was not a problem

dense plover
#

Are you with a full group?

tribal sand
#

no solo

dense plover
#

Bullshit

#

I call bullshit

tribal sand
#

i did

dense plover
#

Did you use the no sanity drain food?

#

There’s no way you can do that with normal sanity drain

tribal sand
#

yeah i used the food

#

thats why i miss the food already

dense plover
#

Ah ok

tribal sand
#

did one few minutes ago and could only finish 2 events and thrall

dense plover
#

Yeah that’s pretty much the only way to do all of it

#

And honestly the fact you can only run once or twice a week

tribal sand
#

yeah that food is gone now šŸ˜„

dense plover
#

That part really sucks

#

I thought they just redid the food

tribal sand
#

yeah to make it useless šŸ˜„

tranquil steeple
#

prolly could've just made it halven sanity drain for 2-3 min instead

#

as a way to increase your chances of getting to a sanity regen area

dense plover
#

^

#

They’re still changing lots of smaller things

#

They redid the corrupted enemies

#

They’re extremely weak now

#

Like, the debuff I mean

#

And they added those stupid fucking works

#

Worms

tribal sand
#

cause u have no chance of getting sanity back without killing a elite, using a ball or the K'bab (there are no regen areas, as far as i know) the halfen sanity food ould be not very useful

#

as a melee i need to say i liked the worms šŸ˜„

dense plover
#

There are a few

#

But it’s usually insignificant

#

It honestly feels like they’ve been ignoring all feedback for major visions

tranquil steeple
#

the orbs was what I meant when I mentioned sanity regen

dense plover
#

There’s going to end up being a ton of hotfixes on launch because SO many people are going to complain about the cloak and how it’s impossible to level it up in any reasonable amount of time

tranquil steeple
#

and again, my suggestion was purely to roughly keep the original function without making it OP/mandatory

dense plover
#

Not to mention their unwillingness to put assault world quests on the fucking zone map

#

I fucking hate how they’re only on the minimal

#

Minimap

#

It’s fucking stupid

tribal sand
#

not only that; its no fun playing the vision for 5 weeks only getting the endboss or 1 event down in there

dense plover
#

Yep

tribal sand
#

yeah i guess this events should be the mentioned WQ 2.0 for shadowlands

dense plover
#

I’ve reported it multiple times

#

Forums are filled with it

#

Nah it’s because they just don’t want them on the map

#

They’re literally tagged as WQ

#

They just give you no info

#

And shitty rewards

#

50 rep and 1-2 coalescing visions and 40 gold

tribal sand
#

i only got ap from them; are there other rewards?

dense plover
#

They’re fucking awful

#

Not really

#

People will do them because they fill the bar and grant rep for the ridiculous double faction rep grind

#

There’s so much grind in 8.3

#

And none of it feels good

#

Because all of the feedback is gone

#

Cool I got coalescing visions, what can I do with them? Fucking nothing because you need so many

#

Oooo, AP, oh wait, it’s less than 1% of what I need

tribal sand
#

there were much grind; right now i think u only have to grind the rep everything else is very much time gated

dense plover
#

Oh man, 50 rep, I only need 50k more

tribal sand
#

500 more rep and i got my first faction to 12k šŸ˜„

dense plover
#

Oh, tokens for my cloak, sick they gave me 100, I only need to run this major vision 7 more times to buy a single talent

#

Oh, and I can’t run it because you don’t give me enough visions? Hooray

#

/s

#

It’s such an unnecessary bloated grind that could be fixed by making the actual content harder instead of making it resource locked

#

Like all of this has the exact same issue and it all hinges on not getting enough coalescing visions

#

Like, Max I think you can run 3 per week if you really grind, maybe 4

tribal sand
#

i think they should cap the cloak on like 2 items per week for upgrades; 1 from first vision and 1 from nzoth killing
make it the u could go in the horrifics maybe 5 times a week
so no need to grind them but u could do it for the fun

dense plover
#

Meanwhile M+ is something people are able to run unlimited amounts of

#

And they do it for the rewards

#

But the fucking horrific visions barely give rewards

#

They only give gear once

#

And the returns on running multiple a week are anti exponential (whatever that word is)

tribal sand
#

with this build they killed the fun for me tbh

dense plover
#

I bet that they change the amount of coalescing essences needed for the event to 500 or less within 3 weeks of launch

#

That’s how shitty this design is

#

It so obviously needs to be changed

tribal sand
#

yeah or else u have not much to do in 8.3
except u play much twinks

dense plover
#

I can’t believe none of the fucking clickbait wow people have talked about t

You’ll have a bunch to play for the first week or so

tribal sand
#

yeah only preach was touching the ptr a bit; but no one else really said anything about it

#

wow
