I was really hoping they weren’t going to utterly trash heirlooms for the people that put time and money into getting them and leveling them up.
But good to know blizzard is forever able to balance out any excitement with utterly ruining another aspect of the game.
Ok, thanks for sharing
Oh no, I can’t get my extra XP boost for my 7 hour leveling, and instead get other multiple boosts that make killing monsters super easy after a level up and rested XP is better. What will I do?
are they at least good enough to quest with
Heirlooms are fine. They have just been repurposed because of obsolescence.
I’m not seeing the issue really. Rested XP lasts 60% longer, regen faster while leveling, boosts every ding…
still gonna be BIS until the max level, and now they even get more boosts than just a straight XP one
Weapons are still very useful.
The set bonuses are garbage.
Basing a set bonus around not playing your character and leveling up while turning in quests is beyond lame design.
I just wore mine on a pally and felt pretty strong. The lack of xp boost sucks but they still felt good.
Ah yes, because a straight number increase isn’t super lame at all.
I really think the 6 piece set bonus should either have been a boost to speed after a kill or mount summon reduction because unless your certain classes like druid or shaman it would be rather convenient in killing off the downtime you spend going from mob to mob.
That was the point of heirlooms since their inception. If you didn’t want the exp boost, why were you wearing/purchasing them?
But please. Make sure to kill the random critter on the ground to make use of your “buff” when you turn in a quest. That is, after logging into it after not playing it for a week intentionally to make use of the “bonus”.
I don’t get your issue… leveling is MUCH faster now. Why do you need xp bonuses on top of that?
oh snap, we have another keyword accomplished!
i’ve almost checked off the entire list, and it’s still early.
everyone take a shot
They seem fine to me. What’s your issue?
Ah maybe because they were the BIS item until their max cap… maybe that was why? But why would that make sense? An item that can be transmogged from level 1 that you never have to change out that is BIS? Crazy… Who would want that?
the bonus set is just garbage.
they ignored the feedback and refused to change them.
The gear leveling with you isn’t the issue we are discussing.
this just wasn’t the case.
…especially with gear rewards having a chance to forge.
