Whatever happened to No Changes, when they are changing a basic part of TBC which was blood lust. Sated is a WOTLK feature.

No Changes was and is stupid.

juggling shamans was crap gameplay. Sated is a welcome addition to TBC

It failed miserably because as it turns out, leaving a 20 year old game completely unchanged is a bad idea.

Excellent changes.

We had World of WarriorCraft with Anniversary. They should have cut rage generation in half if they are going to mess with game play mechanics.

Paladin AOE tanking is also overpowered in TBC and they should nerf that and limit how many mobs Consecrate hits, it gives them a unfair advantage vs Warrior and Druid tanks. There is a big list of changes they should do if they are going to do them, and not stop at Bloodlust.

Are they making the Shattrath tour account wide?

No Changes was miserable and the majority+ refuted it.

Some Changes are required to maintain the viability of a 20 year old game.

Dual spec coming to era.

Eyr in shambles.

Oh yeah, I didn’t think about that. Transferring Anni → Era means blizz is either going to disable dual spec for those characters or bring dual spec to Era.

They announced in a dif post that they’re bringing dual spec and groupfinder to Era.

I like all of the changes but this one. I really enjoyed the harder KT and Vashj, I recall when they were nerfed in the previous TBC Classic and the fights felt like a joke in comparison. I hope they either lessen the nerf or revert to an initial un-nerfed SSC/TK with the nerfs implemented a couple weeks later.

It’s going to be a face roll TBC. They don’t want to re-tune raids for the bloodlust nerfs, it would cost them money and dev time that they don’t want to do. Sunwell will be released in a heavily nerfed state also at this rate.

“re-tune raids for bloodlust nerfs”
my man thinks that the entire raid getting lust instead of just 2-3 groups is somehow a nerf

This couldn’t be more wrong. Classic was the most successful when it was the most authentic.

It’s gotten less and less successful the more Blizz has changed it.
