There’s an issue with recrafting gear. It’s not taking materials for a lot of pieces, in my case it’s been plate boots.

209

So Kobold Pickaxe is just way beyond anyone’s skill in the country…

210

That’s going to be nice for the few mage tower skins I don’t have that require the rated BG’s. (Any chance the RBG could only need to be done once for the entire account?)

Thanks… I noticed my druid’s flight speed seemed slower before today. Nice to be able to catch up.

Genuinely shocked that you still havent acknowledged the stealth nerf you put out on wither with this patch. You have just killed a spec hours before the raid goes live.

Wither stacks now have a 5 sec ICD, just tested it. Impossible to build stacks and kinda defeats the purpose of hellcaller as a hero tree.

Did Templar Paladin get stealth buffed? I don’t recall being able to use Hammer of Light more than once after Wake of Ashes yesterday. Or am I just going crazy?

216

This broke Blackened Soul and put a 5 sec ICD on gaining stacks… WTF?

Ah, missed the:

Professions Tailoring: specialty cloth drop rates have been extremely nerfed across the board.

Dust bags from snuffling nerfed dust yield from 60-70 to 8-13 dust.

Good ol’ “abuse early or get even farther behind than those that did abuse early” whenever you find something that seems too good to be true instead of expecting it to have been intentional.

If you have 60 stacks of Light’s Deliverance, you can cast Hammer of Light free.

219

I’m not talking about that. Yesterday, when Hammer of Light procced, whether from Light’s Deliverance or Wake of Ashes, I could only use it once. Now I’m able to use it multiple times for its entire 12 second duration

220

Now THAT’S an interesting bug.

221

Hmm did they ninja fix the skinning of mushrooms to now be herbalisim xD

222

tailoring: made cloth drops almost non existant on listed mobs. seriously guys, NO duskweave in 4 days??? and lot of people have noticed this. drop rate needs adjusting, youve killed tailoring

Shadow priest rework PLEASE!

5 sec ICD makes it impossible to stack now. What’s the point of any of that middle row of talents now.
