Why has the SoD update screwed my Classic HC game??? Why was my mouse sensitivity all borked along with pretty much all the addon’s I use???.. It’s classic ERA HC… DON’T CHANGE A THING!!! FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.
I got 1k honor killing a dude in Theramore.
oh wow so the changes are out now then? thought it was thursday
Why the massive nerf? The debuff still lasts the same amount and baelfire bolt will do less damage. 4 stacks vs 9. I am hoping this was a mistake…

Shouldn’t “For Great Honor” be boosted as well? Otherwise it’s going to be pointless to turn in that one instead of turning the marks in individually

World Buffs
- Players who have completed the appropriate quests related to looting the Head of Onyxia, Heart of Hakkar, or the quests involving killing Rend Blackhand will now be able to hand in a repeatable quest once a month to re-trigger these world buff effects. These new quests grant no rewards and confer no other benefits other than triggering the world buff event on your realm.
- There is now a 10-second cooldown on obtaining a new Darkmoon Faire buff from Sayge in Season of Discovery (was a 4 hour cooldown).
Do this on Classic Era too kthx

very cool very pog
Lock tank is going to suck for solo content and pvp… We don’t always have a rogue with us to partially offset the nerf with their poison.
I can’t imagine anyone playing tank if not well geared.
will boss drop more items if people doing 3 trials? confused
Why nerf the damage? Just buff threat… wow

Big fan of upcoming changes!
With the upcoming cosmetic alternative for boomkins, is there any possibility of warlocks getting something similar for metamorphosis? I would really love to have an alternative that lets me see my character. Something like Dark Apotheosis from MoP could do nicely.

Being able to do less than half the damage with a round of balefire bolts and then still cutting all mana regen for 30 seconds destroys how useful this rune is. Mages weren’t even on top of the charts before and this nerf seems unnecessary.

the balefire bolt change is a 700-1k dps loss for fire mage…blizzard this is totally unacceptable you cant nerf a mid tier class 30% wtf are u thinking…if this stays no way i can continue to play as a mage… every other class in p5 according to sims will do over 1k more than us even p4 lokcs are already 1k more than a p5 bis mage…this makes no sense…

Maybe its just me but to combat premades that just literally camp on top of graveyards can people rezing get like a 10,000% dmg buff for 30 sec maybe and enemies within 40 yards of graveyard take 10,000% more dmg ? camping graveyards is really cringy, maybe add a caveat if your team has the oponent’s flag this buff is neutralized till it is dropped or recapped to prevent griefing and sitting on gy with flag
So how does this work? I already learned weaponsmithing spec on my SoD warrior, but the quest to learn the other spec isn’t available from the armorsmithing trainer. Is there some hidden requirement that wasn’t laid out here? Or is it perhaps bugged?

Improved Volley: This rune now also increases Volley damage by 100%.
How is this different than Phase 4.
Why is Shift-WindowsKey-Arrow disabled now? I cant move wow around to other monitors with the keyboard shortcut 
40% less spell DMG in pvp and only 30% less physical…You basically just nerfed all casters 10 % less DMG. Or buffed physical DMG classes 10% vs casters.
WTF… seriously? You don’t have to be a genius to see that now you’re going to take longer to kill them as a caster, use more mana and have a longer time to have to survive and cc or peel off you…
…not to mention 50% more HP in a bg.
Also giving 2 marks for a loss and allowing premades vs solo with more honor is only going to mean premades are going to spam fast wins and you’re going to have to join premade yourself or end up sitting in a GY WITH PEOPLE SAYING LET THEM WIN… DON’T RES …FFS BLIZZARD YOU’RE SO OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE REALITY OF BGS…It also means more Afks…I prefer to focus on the battle than reporting. Bgs should allow casual players to solo que …some just like to do a few bgs after work and take care of their family…
You should have made it so that people who want to play with friends and join as a group even if it’s only 2 players in group will be put on unrestricted que. So basically any time you “Que as a group” you May face premades…And anyone who ques solo will only face groups formed by solo players…
Also Instead of giving 2 marks …If you want to get people to do all 3 bgs? Simply make it so you can’t reque the same bg more than 3x…HELLO? This would make all bgs equally active…
afks…Not a single new bg…no new pvp gear… didn’t bother adding rings, neck etc…No upgrade to pvp weapons? With so many powerful new PvE weapons what will be the point of grinding to rank 14 later?
So busy focused on the pve.
Should not have nerfed DMG and buffed HP…What you should have done is made STAMINA decrease chance to be crit… increase armor slightly and increase spell resistance slightly…
If you want to make all bgs equally active?
Simply make it so you can’t que up for the same bg more than 3x in a row.
2 marks and honor boost just makes more afk…
When you join “As a group” in a bg
Regardless of wether it’s as 2 or 10 in group you are placed into a “Premade” Que…
When you join solo you are placed in a group where only solo players Qued.
This way friends can still Play together…
Btw we all know the ACTUAL REASON PEOPLE WANT TO JOIN AS GROUP IS SO THEY CAN GET FAST EASY WINS.
All this does is create a scenario 9/10 times where one side is in their gy With people on team saying “Don’t res” “let them win”.
What kind of experience is that for a development team that prides themselves on FUN gaming?
It’s not a match at all when half your team are completely demoralized and saying let them win… because you simply can’t win…
Blizzard have been completely Clueless and void of any common sense about this for 20 years!? If you’re really keen you could make it so wsg and ab let you join as a role…so heals or dps , tank…Then the system tries to create matches where both sides have healer etc…jist like a dungeon finder acts…Or so you don’t get half a team of one class .
