Earthen a let down

[Dolomir-fizzcrank]

Just had an insane interaction in general chat. I voiced the opinion that the Earthen Racials weren’t very good, and GC acted like I personally attacked them. Suddenly I’m getting insulted by like 4+ random strangers. What kind of phenomenon is this?

I have never posted on the WoW forums.

But once I saw the Earthen racials… I saw something. It was… an absolute big steaming pile of garbage for most roles and classes. I’m still going to rock it because… reasons. But holy moly Blizzard change/buff these racials please.

1. Double or triple main stat of our choice instead of secondary for Ingest Minerals.
2. Azerite Surge is… trash damage/healing and is also just a boring and weird choice.
3. Wide-Eyed Wonder could be changed to give % exp for everything if you’re going for the alt boosting angle… nobody cares about the little gain from exploration.
4. The rest are fine and thematic. Hyper Productive is neat.

That’s all folks.

We’re working on some updates to Earthen eating.

First, we recognize that the Earthen Well Fed secondary stat bonus is not providing the intended power level. We’re increasing that effect.

Secondly, we’re making Belga’s gems edible to Earthen, improving their quality, and greatly reducing their cost.

We’ll let you know when the hotfixes to make these adjustments go live.

We’ve been heard.
