Am I not supposed to play my enhance shaman until they fix the spec tree on live?

Ok but hear me out, Tombstone Totems…

Im at work, did blizzard update the spec tree and remove the 2 point nodes? If not has blizzard said anything about when then are updating live or reverting the beta?

Nope. Blizzard did absolutely nothing for enhancement. They even left the 1 charge ele blast bug for good measure

I’m put off by the gulf between the Streamers Beta videos/tier lists vs what I’m seeing in my tree.

Every streamer is “OMG! ENHANCE IS AMAZING!” and its S tier in a bunch of lists. they fall over themselves in superlatives about just how amazing the changes are, the builds are crazy, enhance can walk-chew gum-and Solo Mythic Raids all at the same time.

then I look at my class tree and it looks the same as S4. Oh, nature’s guardian is one pt! but my Frost DK has a whole different end game. Ret Paladin has like 10 different awesome builds and you can choose like 3 or more end talents.

meanwhile, I’m still getting to Alpha Wolf and thinking “hmmmm, where should I put my last point”

i just dont see changes worthy of any excitement. and the Streamer community is Ga-Ga for enhance. I dont get it.

appears no. Molten assault + Ancestry are still 2 pts each.

thats my problem. youtubers LOVE shaman. but my enhance class tree and the abilities dont seem different enough to warrant any excitement.

i know beta is different than live. but the gap between OMG! and S4 seems inconceivable. like we’re playing different games.

Probably because we are. Live prepatch and the beta builds are two different things.

None of these issues exist come TWW. But I’m glad people are getting a taste of how bad it was about to be had we not received the last minute talent changes in beta.

Thats disappointing, like give us an explanation.

A) We will be uploading the Enhancement beta tree to live on…

B) its not working as intended we are…1) reworking it or 2) reverting beta to the old tree.

But everyone else getting new trees and like someone previously said to new builds that are opened up with the 3 extra points, but in reality its exactly the same with no information on whats happening

I am guessing we’ll not be getting those for a few weeks when beta ends …

Yes, you are playing a different game. The Beta build and the live build is VASTLY different. I am still confused as to why Blizzard did this, I went on the PTR, and that build is not the pre-patch one.

The Beta build is a step in the correct direction, with fixes and continuity for the builds. Totemic actually works with our mastery and scales with haste. The Bullwork shield is nicer, has a longer CD, but is nice. So I guess we will need to wait until they decide to patch the server with the Beta build. I am guessing we will not see it until the final patch is ready for live.

I know it’s just pre-patch and eventually it will get fixed and nobody will even remember in a few weeks, but it just comes across as sloppy and borderline insulting to the player base.

Even if Blizz isn’t happy with the Enhance tree, there’s no reason it couldn’t have been deployed with the pre-patch while they still tinker on beta. Oh well.

I’ve come to the conclusion that Blizzard is just incompetent as a company. The DK beginner class quest (for non-allied races) is straight up broken and new players can’t even get past it without a LOT of help, and it’s been this way for months. Balances and tweaks are par for the course, but this dev team legitimately doesn’t take care of the most basic tenants of their own game.
