blade dance isn't a spell, you could cast it

#

I played dh in BfA when eye beam was interruptable

glass mortar
#

how do u see that blade dance isnt a spell

#

idk what flag they use to distinguish

#

i was just checking wowhead and blade dances subcatagory wasnt under abilities

wintry solar
#

You would

glass mortar
#

i see its down further in the tags "is ability" i assume

fallow hinge
#

like if it goes off wdps it's not treated as a spell by the game

glass mortar
#

yes im looking for the actual tag modifier they use to differentiate

fallow hinge
#

like if druids get kicked during convoke they can still use rake and shred and stuff

glass mortar
#

between say, a sinister strike and a fireball

#

because even abilities have spellschools

#

but i think i found it

fallow hinge
#

I'm like 90% sure it's down to whether or not the coefficient is wdps or spell power

#

so it's something to do with that stat, as it were

glass mortar
#

hmm

#

didnt it lock you out of using chaos nova tho

#

im trying to remember what it prevented

#

i mean every dh damage ability uses AP and getting kicked on eye beam definitly locked you out of a few things so

#

its probably just some arbritrary flag they have in the background

fallow hinge
#

true

#

I forgot about nova and spike

glass mortar
#

good times anyway i loved kicking eye beam

#

now u just gouge it

#

and walk away cause dh is suck anyway

fallow hinge
#

know what else is suck

#

me not having 2 vault slots for my priest in m+ :c

sudden fulcrum
#

why don't you?

fallow hinge
#

'cuz I've only done 2 10s

sudden fulcrum
#

i got an upgrade from my third slot so i am glad i filled my vault

fallow hinge
#

when's the last time you invited a 667 shadow to a 10 when there's like 100 680+ people in the queue

sudden fulcrum
#

i usually don't pug if i can avoid it

#

it's terrible

fallow hinge
#

and my usual crowd either don't play tues or are currently doing other stuff

#

so that's why I don't have 2 slots

#

Looking at oulaw logs it seems like for most fights the top parses are typically using hidden opportunity, but then for sprocket, almost everyone is using keep it rolling. What's going on there?

glass mortar
#

u cannot play HO

late swallow
#

FB HO pepe_chad

glass mortar
#

well u could, but it would be fatebound HO, our worst build

keen belfry
#

agree

copper owl
#

ohhh because they're all on FB I see

glass mortar
#

yes u cant play trickster on mythic sprocket

fallow hinge
#

literally can't

somnius the type of person to stalk social media

good job this is the only social media I have

i guess that is kinda rogue-like

it's called OSINT

i'm not sure i've ever been in a bodega

and how to fix

fallow hinge

kir never presses ambush

#

it should not be on ur bars

#

!commonerrors

ornate heathBOT
fallow hinge
#

without hidden opportunity, ambush doesn't inherit the stuff about sinister strike that makes it worth pressing

I manage to get about 5,5M sustained on dummies, but in keys I'm an absolute disaster. Guess my positionning sucks.

It kinda feels meh to put twice the effort as other specs for such a result though 😐

Isn't that the best outlaw dungeon?

hybrid crown

You can import wow classic weak auras and sometimes they work lol

U cant import stuff without having wa installed on ptr

frail veldt

use curseforge

to install addons onto the ptr version of the game

its very very very easy

glass mortar

Or copy paste ur folders yea

frail veldt

and allows you to select alpha version

glass mortar

If u don't have an add on manager

I think everyojne should have an addon manager tbh lol

copper radish

if only GSW was earlier in the tree

#

didnt they nerf its dmg at one point too since then

gaunt phoenix
#

ya it was 300% back then

copper radish
#

they should move it up in the tree so we can take it easier. maybe buff it so it effects each shot

wintry solar
#

Undeserved nerf

#

They should delete it

copper radish

imagine those juicy FTHs when all the shots are critting like that

Everything that made gsw fun is gone

It was reliable dmg tho

Ptr notes are a myth

copper radish
#

do you think they would ever give us tier where we could swap out the secondaries on each piece?

glass mortar
#

we've had reforging and they got rid of it

so i doubt it

#

they clearly want a limit to the degree of minmaxing with secondaries u can do

copper radish
#

thats a bummer

#

would love to do just that lol

pale girder
#

Understood, but when I tried learning sub, I just didn't like the spec.

quiet ore
# gaunt phoenix gsw > blunderbuss

Oh the days of tracking both pistol shot and GSW buff durations to ensure you use the GSW buff before it falls off or is overwritten even if you don't get opportunity. It's been a long time since I had that WA visible.

wintry solar
#

Didn't you hold bte until you got an opportunity proc?

#

Unless certain criteria were met?

quiet ore
#

No? You tracked both because you send a GSW-only rawdog pistol shot if the GSW buff was about to run out. Technically, you still can do that, it just does almost nothing for you because GSW is smaller numerically, and oppo proc rate is higher, so it almost never happens anymore.

#

Infrequently enough, low enough impact, that even if you play GSW, imo, not worth tracking

# vivid vessel apparently

Zac, I feel like Outlaw is just objectively weaker than other DPS on the PTR right now, but some people are still rating it as A-tier or whatever. Why do you think that is? Are they just not paying enough attention and giving it an A-tier by default?

vivid vessel
#

they asked zeross only

#

also no one plays outlaw ?

#

so

frank finch
vivid vessel
#

how do you get outlaw data

soon no1 gonna play rogue

outlaw is garb o

which isnt surprising

when it got basically a 15? % nerf

with nerf + ks

pliant wave

I deliberately held back during the raid test and didn't even hit 2M, but isn't that being taken into account?

vivid vessel
#

now also consider other specs seems to be getting better tier than last tier

haughty wigeon
#

because

#

brew

agile orchid
#

Mystic touch change is the dumbest shit ever

haughty wigeon
#

shits on alot of tanks in ptr rn

#

why

agile orchid
#

You don’t invite a monk, you lose 8% damage

haughty wigeon
#

i think its nice and gives people more of a reason to engage with monk

agile orchid
#

Just like that

haughty wigeon
#

physical comps

#

vs

#

magic comps

#

like

agile orchid
#

How about they buff the phys comp classes

#

Instead of buffing the shit out of mystic touch

haughty wigeon
#

its clearly a thing

#

to make sure

#

people touch brew

agile orchid
#

They need to revert it

haughty wigeon
#

after its solid rework

agile orchid
#

It’s dumb as shit

haughty wigeon
#

since they have to undo so much community perception of brew being shit

agile orchid
#

Also enjoy being tuned around brew buff

#

Been there done that with PI

covert heart
#

I think its fine, make people actually wanna play with a monk especially brew. Its hard on the streets bring a brew

#

When I played it they didnt wanna invite you because they didnt even know what it does. Kind of like pres

frank finch
#

rate my take

#

zacs group pushing io with that phy comp made them buff mystic touch

#

"oh hey look at these guys pushing off meta that cute lets help them out"

neat mist
#

Pretty sure they have no idea who Zac or his group is

mint fulcrum
#

Hi guys could you tell me why people is going House of Cards with outlaw?

neat mist
#

if they saw that shit encroaching on god comp

#

they'd nerf Mystic Touch down to 3%

gaunt phoenix
#

the real answer is zac liked it and that has trickled down into people copying it

mint fulcrum
#

dont even know who that guy is lmao

You will

gaunt phoenix
#

big gamer

haughty wigeon
#

like idk if people understand how good these brew changes are

#

to basically kil its negative community percetion

#

basically means

#

buff it to a point where people are forced to take it

#

or else they will always play caster comp

covert heart
#

Brew always ends up being pretty good at the end of a season just takes it forever to get there

haughty wigeon
#

like buffing arcane is a take..idk why they did that

#

unless its for like raid

nope nothing in datamine

Not a single other change

i mean

im fine w that

so

did they only fix KS

r we actually gunna end up with this fucking kspree

cuz dawnbreaker is coming back

#

not cuz we were complaining

frail veldt
glass mortar
#

i doubt it but how would u ever prove that

covert heart
#

Shooting guns is pretty cool, I feel like the old killing spree felt more like a sub ability

glass mortar
#

i mean the new kspree is very cool, im talking about the 5 second cast time and doubled cd

#

and also at its current tuning its optimal to cancel it sometimes

azure vortex
#

Just make sectec new ks

proper bear
#

We got a 3% buff tho from monks

pliant wave
#

KS is basically a nerf if you’re looking at it purely from a DPS standpoint. Who thought it was a good idea to increase the cooldown to 3 minutes?

wintry solar
glass mortar
#

like we arent gunna try any changes to this version to see if the community thinks its more fun to play

wintry solar
#

So its inconsequential

dense bridge
#

They could've made it work like blade dance

glass mortar
#

i swear hunters and mages and shamans get abilities changed and then changed back 3-4 times a ptr cycle when they r getting something like this

#

we got "oh now its cd is doubled" and outy

#

surely some other change can be tested

ripe ibex

ripe ibex
#

cool

frail veldt

well was

#

so Id say outlaw was more unplayable without war

than monk

glass mortar

shouldnt they be nearly the same?

frail veldt

but neither statement is true

ripe ibex
#

i’d say it’s bad without both

ripe ibex

but we are talking about monk

ornate heathBOT
frail veldt
wintry solar
#

I'm not entertaining this

frail veldt

but war is still better

#

war is just objectively a better buff

ripe ibex
#

okay we are talking about monk

glass mortar
#

they r literally identical

frail veldt
#

thats prob why they buffed monk

glass mortar
#

3.9% both in fuus sim

frail veldt
#

as trickster

#

not as fatebound

glass mortar
#

sure

frail veldt
#

but regardless

#

war buff is better

#

it doesnt require war hitting hte mob

#

and it affects all your abilities

#

as a melee/hutner spec

ripe ibex
#

whatever raid buffs ruin m+ zzz same thing again it will never change

I feel like do pretty good damage without either buff so eh

frail veldt
#

yeah I mean outlaw is def very strong rn

#

overall damage wise

#

but outlaws as a concept needs to do better overall than other specs to warrant bringing it

#

cuz it doesnt have cooldowns that can be utilized

covert heart
#

I mean imma def try and get Monks in my group but it isnt gonna stop me from playing it haha

ripe ibex
#

yeah for sure but it’s going to be tuned with monk buff in mind

covert heart
#

True kind of like how survival is, if it isnt doing crazy damage it really isnt wanted

frail veldt
#

ez

#

flood the logs with shit dps

covert heart
#

I am more of an mplus player so I'll be fine either way haha

ripe ibex
#

i wish raid buffs were just disabled in m+

hybrid crown
#

It's okay outlaw they are still cooking the KS fixes for sure

ripe ibex
#

and they did m+ tuning separate from raid

covert heart
#

Yea they prob just need some data or whatever with the 6 outlaw players in the ptr

copper radish
#

when does rogue get raid buff again lol

covert heart
#

The 5% dr 😜

hybrid crown
#

Maybe they buff atrophic yeah

copper radish
#

wtb aoe cdr

wintry solar
#

Okay

hybrid crown
#

I wonder if the monk buff is also to buff mele comps in keys

ripe ibex
#

i mean arophic is not bad

near rock
#

we're so back

covert heart
#

Oh def is to buff melee in general

hybrid crown
#

Maybe they are cooking a mele meta season

ripe ibex
#

its just some raid buffs are so unbelievably overtuned

craggy barn
#

holy monk buff buffed

covert heart
#

Also to make brew appealing to people

#

Like because usually you just wanted the mw, but now with an extra 3% plus the brew changes people will be like fuck it let's try it out

glass mortar
#

put atro back on shiv

craggy barn
#

imagine being told to shiv for damage reduc as outlaw

wintry solar
#

Its a dirty job for sure

glass mortar
#

mf be like give me raid utility then not wanna press a gcd every 30s of the fight to get its value

#

smh

#

greedy as always outlaw

#

people asking for a raid buff just be happy we dont have hunters mark ok

wintry solar
#

So spoiled my goodness

craggy barn
#

nah ud save it for big damage events

fallow hinge
#

wait until they realise they press every gcd to get raid value, because damage is how you kill bosses

novel socket
#

are they really not gonna do any tuning to rogue in ptr

#

wtf is blizz doing

#

even warriors get tuning

red zinc
#

I mean

glass mortar
#

hunters mark goes crazy hard. it cant be used in aoe, its worth less damage then either of the other "raid debuffs" and its effectively useless in m+

red zinc
#

if this monk thing was coming

azure vortex
#

Blizz is cooking something stinky

glass mortar
#

yet both the other raid debuffs auto apply on all attacks

red zinc
#

i get them not wanting to go to crazy with buffing phys stuff

craggy barn
#

what do u mean theres no rogue buffs

novel socket
craggy barn
#

clearly the monk buff is a rogue buff

novel socket
#

mega buff sin numbers one day before patch

#

and call it a day

copper radish
fallow hinge
craggy barn
#

they just gave us a 3% buff

#

what more do u want

#

???

#

greedy af

novel socket
#

yes

#

i'm a pirate

glass mortar
#

dont make excuses for it liz

#

it is a joke of a raid buff

#

and people should be madder about it

fallow hinge
#

oh I totally agree

craggy barn
#

its a joke of a raid buff that was turned into a mastery

wintry solar
glass mortar
#

why do i need to spend a gcd to swap targets/am i only able to apply it to 1 target when monk and dh debuffs r both stronger then it and auto apply on everything u hit

#

silliness

fallow hinge
#

it's payback from when hunters had access to EVERY raid buff

#

even battle res

wintry solar
#

And for being hunters in general

copper radish
glass mortar
#

well

craggy barn
#

they should make it so that if u mutli shot, u apply the hunters mark on ur current target to other targets hit on ur next aimed shot

copper radish
#

didnt rogue used to have a raid wide buff once?

glass mortar
#

they should be budgeting specs and tuning them around full raid buffs probably unfortunatly

craggy barn
#

every class used to have a raid buff

wintry solar
#

Restless crew

glass mortar
#

so yes likely u are taxed harder for not having a monk

glass mortar
#

of some flavor

craggy barn
#

wod raid buffs

red zinc
#

It is kinda funny though for brew

glass mortar
#

so rogue did have a couple different ones at times yea

craggy barn
#

rogue gave haste i think

copper radish
#

they should do that again

red zinc
#

mfs do big chunk of magic damage

covert heart
#

I thought it was crit

red zinc
#

get less effect from their own raid buff than other classes

glass mortar
#

back in wod/panda era u had like 8 different raid buffs but each raid buff had 3-4 specs that could provide it

fallow hinge
#

shame we're not allowed crit and haste raid buffs anymore, but we are allowed mast and vers :<

glass mortar
#

and hunters could take lone wolf and choose any 1 raid buff to provide

#

it was a cute system i actually liked it better then how buffs r now

red zinc
#

I dont get why dks didnt just get 3% haste and rogues 3% crit

glass mortar
#

🤷

vivid vessel
#

ye

fallow hinge
#

warlock imp for the 10% stam raid buff

red zinc
#

if they really wanted to stay with this raid buff thing

#

just give everyone one

#

With about equal value

chilly atlas
#

honestly the every class needs a raid buff to be brought to raid mentality makes the 5 man content meta pretty much built around buffs

red zinc
#

🏄‍♂️

glass mortar
#

i far prefer the "u have 8 slot buffs to fill but u can fit hundreds of different comps for those buffs" to "these 8 characters are always in a slot"

#

also felt good cause u were just always bringing something to a group

fallow hinge
#

100%

chilly atlas
#

i liked in bfa when they had warscrolls and you could just play stupid stuff

vivid vessel
fallow hinge
#

having 40% of your roster hard locked into 8 unique classes kinda sucks

vivid vessel
#

but

#

its the first season in like

#

forever

#

we have 2 metas kinda

red zinc
#

wonder if game would be healthier if it was legit just like

vivid vessel
#

and its all thanks to raid buffs

#

so idk

red zinc
#

Every unique class gives 3% damage to group exactly

#

at least better for m+ anyway

craggy barn
fallow hinge
#

god I miss multistrike

#

I know it was just a worse crit but the tiny spell effects were wicked

#

multistrike cascade went so hard

chilly atlas
#

didnt outlaw have a cdr raidbuff in ptr before tww?

craggy barn
#

yes

chilly atlas
#

or was that df?

wintry solar
#

Df

craggy barn
#

season 3 df

covert heart
#

Ohh okay so long ago I forgot haha

red zinc
#

seeing that monk patch note made me multistrike my brain nodes

craggy barn
#

haste was really good for outlaw

#

er

#

combat

#

lol

wintry solar
#

Should've been a 3% aura buff to outlaw tbh.

chilly atlas
#

outlaw is combat with an eypatch

wintry solar
#

I don't know any monks

covert heart
#

and guns

red zinc
#

Restless crew wouldve been the worst addition in that xpac

#

And aug got released in it so thats saying something

covert heart
#

Imma just pug some Monks easy clap

chilly atlas
#

i will desync your cds

#

and you will like it

wintry solar
#

Rets deserve desynced CDs

red zinc
#

I think someone did the math and it was like

glass mortar
#

it was a highly questionable raid buff

red zinc
#

30-40s removed from 2min cds

glass mortar
#

not just because of how it worked

#

because it was outlaw only

wintry solar
#

Outlaw>other rogues

daring oxide
#

Did we get anything this week?

wintry solar
#

Fuck em

torpid fiber
#

It was bad on so many levels

glass mortar
#

very strange behavior to give 1 spec of a pure class a unique raid buff

#

if it happened to anyone else we'd be saying that sucks for them

red zinc
#

naw vurai

glass mortar
#

but also it was just.... problematic

red zinc
#

Unless theres a stealth change again

wintry solar
red zinc
#

Didnt check ptr

glass mortar
#

random piss CDR is so hit or miss across the board

red zinc
#

Like the aug thing

glass mortar
#

well wdym our cdr output varies absurdly

#

kir can be anywhere from a ~50s CD to a 2m cd

daring oxide
glass mortar
#

and when it hits/when its in troughs is purely random

red zinc
#

For how small the group cdr was

glass mortar
#

its not like u can guarentee cds at certain thresholds

red zinc
#

It wouldve normalized somewhat

#

Broken but not super random for keys

glass mortar
#

well the only implementation we had to be clear, the cdr (saeldur did the math) was not small

#

but ig what u mean

red zinc
#

raid it wouldve been buh

glass mortar
#

it was effectively ~1.3m of cdr off 3 minute cds in the 1 version of it we saw before they delet

copper radish
#

they should experiment with that restless crew again see if it could work

glass mortar
#

with that version of outlaw

wintry solar
#

The time is gone

red zinc
#

I legit think whoever else was still working on rogue at that time got taken off after cooking that

glass mortar
#

honestly if i wanted more rogue raid utility, just give me an amz

red zinc
glass mortar
#

defensive ogcd button i can use for a raid aoe

lime lake
#

gib smoke bomb

glass mortar
#

yes

keen belfry
#

did they forget about us in patch notes again

glass mortar
#

smoke bomb used to be a raid cd

#

id take smoke bomb back

#

super minor, not hard to play, gave a bit more raid usefulness

red zinc
#

Btw

glass mortar
#

also sick animation

fallow hinge
#

god remember the smoke bomb timing on Thok heroic?

red zinc
#

What classes are the only pure phys dealers

fallow hinge
#

zipping into the middle of the triangle to smoke bomb between screeches

wintry solar
#

Give dark sim back to dk

red zinc
#

Excluding like

#

Cantrips and what not

fallow hinge
#

then back out to not bloody the whole raid and switch phases early

red zinc
#

outlaw and fury/arms (excluding the mountain thane stuff)?

fallow hinge
#

BM

glass mortar
#

feral

lime lake
#

feral is surely mainly phys

#

right

red zinc
#

arent both hunter hero talents some bs

#

shadow and lunar

fallow hinge
#

pack leader isn't

glass mortar
#

no

lime lake
#

bm doesnt play dark ranger

red zinc
#

oh yeah theres another

lime lake
#

so its basically all phys

glass mortar
#

survival is like 80%? physical

#

bombs r not

#

nor sting

#

but the rest is

lime lake
#

mm will be doing more arcane next season

#

but idk by how much

glass mortar
#

sentinel will be less

red zinc
#

is cosmic physical

fallow hinge
#

pack leader BM, DotC Feral (without moonfire), Arms, Outlaw

glass mortar
#

probably like 10% less

red zinc
#

I forgor

glass mortar
#

cosmic is not physical

#

fatebound is actually way less physical next season

fallow hinge
#

cosmic is arcane nature shadow and holy

glass mortar
#

when coin is like 20% of ur dps

red zinc
#

indirect fatebound nerf

#

Ggs

wintry solar
#

Good

copper radish
#

damn time to go tricksterr again

wintry solar
#

I hate the popular things

glass mortar
#

please god just fix outlaw in tuning at least

fallow hinge
#

chaos and the schoolstrikes are the only phys hybrid schools

glass mortar
#

dont make me play a season where trickster is 10% ahead in aoe and 15% behind in st

quaint mauve
#

anyone have the WA to remind u to swap weps...

glass mortar
red zinc
#

It makes sense they dont buff outlaw while buffing the raid buff too

#

Just to see where it ends for a week

copper radish
#

i hope trickster ST is somehow the same as fate with some tuning so i got options

glass mortar
#

well we need buffs

red zinc
#

But they buffed warrior so

glass mortar
#

we are literally just substantially weaker then live

#

on ptr

red zinc
#

that logic does not apply

glass mortar
#

we have eaten ~16% in pure nerfs

fallow hinge
#

Weran my dreams of survival s3 are dead and buried :(

glass mortar
#

and we dont scale super well with ilvl

#

template buffs r needed

#

and godsave tricksters ST

red zinc
#

Its all part of the masterplan of dodging the infamous week 2 incident

copper radish
#

what would save trickster ST right now just more dmg %?

glass mortar
#

more % damage

#

its tier set is also like

#

half as strong as fatebounds

#

little less

red zinc
glass mortar
#

the problem is HO is basically getting nerfed by being forced to revert to vigor

#

supercharger ho is just not good without spam rolling

#

but sleight alone is not good enough to make that good

fallow hinge
#

does ks still flicker strike you all over the place next season or did the reworked animation change that too?

glass mortar
#

so u go back LD and u play vigor

#

trickster synergizes a bit better with HO so hurting HO by losing this tier set also hurts it

#

and then its next season tier is substantially weaker then this seasons

glass mortar
#

or fatebounds

fallow hinge
#

wow, they actually did it

#

huge

wintry solar
#

Theory

glass mortar
#

u can move during it also

#

it slows u by 20%

#

so u can run and gun

#

the ability itself is pretty sick. it has some very questionable design choices tho

#

which is annoying because they havent iterated on it a single time since doubling its cd

#

and we have given lots of feedback

wintry solar
#

They're giving us these tier sets so that when we lose them going into the next expansion, we'll level into the bonuses from pur tier into the tree.

glass mortar
#

we dont have very long left in this ptr cycle 🙂

fallow hinge
#

hopefully long enough for my guild to kill gally

copper radish
wintry solar
#

Yeah they did it all the time

glass mortar
#

i mean thats a good thing

copper radish
#

imagine fate bonuses as talents lol

wintry solar
#

Yeah

glass mortar
#

tier sets r an easy way to test out potential new paths for builds

#

always have been

red zinc
#

cuh theres such like

cinder relic
#

CTO was a tier set

red zinc
#

tap in changes they could do

cinder relic
#

Tier set > Conduit > Talent

red zinc
#

Im still an advocate of the radical moving ks into trickster thing

copper radish
#

bring back conduit CTO

red zinc
#

To free up that talent point

fallow hinge
#

ngl I kinda hope if they want to cycle out new hero talents, they take s3 tier interactions with working hero talents and bake them into the spec tree

#

couldn't imagine going back to stationary void torrent

copper radish
#

would it be like doubled up hero talents like bandit trickster or something lol

fallow hinge
#

or no more black arrow

#

doubled up hero talents would be a balancing nightmare

red zinc
cinder relic
#

I doubt they add another set of hero talents

glass mortar
#

everyone gets an elf hero talent for their class in midnight

fallow hinge
wintry solar
#

I can't with elves and void

glass mortar
#

void is peak, elves can hit or miss for me

#

suramar was great

#

very good elf story that

red zinc
#

Cant wait for the quel’thalussy

fallow hinge
#

Suramar was awesome

copper radish
#

in a few xpacks we will be back to 1 talent every 10 levels with the way they change things lol

lime lake
#

the problem with elf expansion is sylvanas is coming back

red zinc
#

nightwell lookin juicy

lime lake
#

otherwise hype

wintry solar
red zinc
#

Death by xalatath feet crushing

fallow hinge
#

alternatively, we get a redux on the artifact system with hopefully a ton less arbitrary grind

red zinc
#

(Insane writing)

wintry solar
#

I wanna go back to Northrend

#

This is all a means to an end

#

To get to Northrend

#

I'll stomach this purple shit

red zinc
fallow hinge
#

yeah

wintry solar
#

Dude

fallow hinge
#

legion remix with streamlined artifact progression to playtest it

copper radish
wintry solar
#

If we don't get dreadblades in remix

#

I'll be so pissed

red zinc
#

Ofc we will

copper radish
#

its gonna be fun trickster with dreadblades

red zinc
#

I doubt its like

hybrid crown
#

The artifact added like class changing talents

red zinc
#

full artifact tree since that conflicts with everything

copper radish
#

KIR with dreadblades oooiiii

hybrid crown
#

They aren't gonna do that

red zinc
#

but the scaling item will be your artifact weapon for sure

lime lake
#

idk i wouldnt be so sure we will get dreadblades

fallow hinge
#

because I think we can probably accept at this point that borrowed power was never inherently a bad thing for the game - it was how we were given it as nasty grinds

red zinc
#

Like cloak in mop remix

hybrid crown
#

Maybe like artifact like tree that gives you stats and dmg procs

lime lake
#

i mean the literal weapons dreadblades yeah but the ability idk

red zinc
#

naw we aint

#

Half the artifact traits are in spec trees

lime lake
#

it would be too weird trying to work around which specs have the ability still and which dont

red zinc
#

Giving new goodies to some classes but not others is not something

wintry solar
#

Tf is the point?

red zinc
#

they want to do

lime lake
#

whatever they do will have to be something new

wintry solar
#

I'll play dk

red zinc
#

itll literally just be mop remix cloak but on the weapon

#

thats all id expect

wintry solar
#

That's all I am

copper radish
#

so 1000x recolors of weps? lol

red zinc
#

maybe some new colors for when you level it

wintry solar
#

But I still miss my build spend build spend build spend gameplay

hybrid crown
#

That sounds like so much more potential for op mele spec omg

copper radish
#

i have so many cloak mogs from panda remix

hybrid crown
#

Since it's the weapon that scales

#

Oh wait

#

It'll cap on ilvl

fallow hinge
#

and there won't be any frogs this time

hybrid crown
#

So like the weapon DPS will stop going up

fallow hinge
#

there'll be like, demon frogs instead

hybrid crown
#

Assa will be best again prolly

lime lake
#

demon frog farm lets fucking goooo

wintry solar
#

Dreadblades but it'll proc a green flower and make you go super fast HOLY

#

Or whatever it did

#

Idr

#

Healed I think

hybrid crown
#

Outlaw scaled so badly in mop remix

lime lake
#

ngl im not even excited for legion remix, im just gonna do it for the achievements/appearances

#

but i have no interest in doing the fucking class hall campaign into suramar campaign again

wintry solar
lime lake
#

remix m+ could be funny though

fallow hinge
#

I did enough mop remix to get the phoenix and that was it

#

I won't touch legion remix because it has no phoenix

wintry solar
#

I did it because I liked it

#

I'm better than all of you

lime lake
#

i liked mop remix

wintry solar
#

Except bel

hybrid crown
#

I was soloing heroic raids it was a blast

lime lake
#

but a lot of that was nostalgia since i started in mop

#

also no tillers so remix sucked

wintry solar
#

Being OP is super fun

fallow hinge
#

I thought it was just gimmicky trash that didn't contribute meaningfully to your standard playcycle

hybrid crown
#

Going into random dungeons and just pooping on everyone else one shotting everything

glass mortar
#

oh look we are just last minute reworking a specs mastery abit to make it scale stronger

#

thats crazy

fallow hinge
#

big deal, my friend and I did a heroic dungeon solo challenge route racing each other back in MoP

glass mortar
#

congrats unholy dk

#

so cool that this has happened like 4 times this expac now

#

law is fine tho

fallow hinge
#

tbh udk did just get their aoe driver hardcapped to 8 targets like outlaw

hybrid crown
#

I did mop cm gold back then too

#

Still fun

glass mortar
#

i mean

fallow hinge
#

they might need a smidge of compensation

glass mortar
#

they scale quadratic to 8 then linear to 16

#

it could be worse
