PTR Updates

Cause it fixes a big issue for all hunter specs. They could’ve buffed black arrow, but that only really fixes survival, not the other specs.

It’s the easiest way to try to fix some major hunter issues without reconstructing the class.
The not able for use in PVP bit intrigues me. I agree that it should not be a pvp ability but how is it being implemented? Does being flagged pvp disable the launcher or is it some other means?

Nifty can use my mim’s head on all my alts.

Yeah I just went in to test again. Mims head and Amani War Bear for all my chars is pog.

Appearance tab for cata looks like a sure thing now. Gonna rock Corrupted Assbringer on all my toons.

Holy crap I didnt realize this! THIS IS FRIGGIN AWESOME!!!

I love all these changes.

Here’s your answer.
It’ll be a similar spell flagging to Lay on Hands not being usable on Arena, but this case just including BGs too.

It all looks good on paper but it took them until P4 to do it. Basically too little too late. It all reeks of being done to prepare for cataclysm, not actually help wrath.

Yes it would’ve been nice if it was in earlier, but whatever we’re getting it now.

So a silly question. Does the character that actually earned the mount (we’ll just use the Amani War Bear as an example) have to continue to exist or can it be deleted and the rest of your characters still be able to use the mount? I get the basic premise of account-wide mounts but not precisely how it functions. I didn’t play any expansions beyond WotLK so I honestly haven’t a clue.

Assuming it’s like retail it becomes account bound and not tied to any specific character.

That would absolutely make my day. Thank you very much for the response.

Can we use the Flying Carpet on non tailors? dumb question but it would be cool if so

Unless they change it specially for Classic, no. Even on retail the carpet still has a tailoring requirement

Right things that are faction/race/profession specific do keep those restrictions, but you don’t have to relearn them on every character.

Hmm… i’m seeing the set favorites option in the collections but not the actual spell to mount/summon a favorite.

It very much reeks of “holy crap people are quitting the game in droves”, but I’ll still absolutely give them props for these patch notes.

Finally preferring quality of life over “you think you do, but you don’t”-level crap deserves credit.

Also the following new spells:

Your direct healing spellcasts grant Confessor's Wrath, increasing your spell damage by $424457s1%, stacking up to $424457u times. Lasts until $424457m2 seconds after your next harmful spellcast.

Edit, there is a new currency 2711 called Defiler’s Scourgestone. I’m assuming that’s the replacement for Sidereal Essence.

What do you all think the currency for these will be for? Togc 10?

I think the following changes will be made to loot for P4

Ulduar 25 Hardmode Gear will move to 10 Man Hardmodes, also a chance for 25 man raid to drop additional piece of loot.

TOGC /TOC 25 man gear moves to togc/toc 10 man. TOGC 25 man drops additional piece.

TOGC 10 man heroic gear moves to sidereal vendor.
TOC 10 man loot moves to new Gamma dungeons. Gamma dungeon End bosses drop trophy of crusade.

Because trapweaving was not intended for hunters to do in origional wotlk. And this fixes that issue for all 3 specs.
