Is there any real reason why “Memories of The Sky” takes 3 weeks to complete? It’s just a side quest about finding lost objects that gives no actual rewards, why is it timegated for so long?

Fun detected, can’t have that. I hate how it turned into a zergfest at the end of last season. If we had 2 tanks we wouldn’t even wait for a single tower. We should have to summon Ivus at least some of the time, that’s way more engaging than a 5 minute match.

Oh noes! Bring the big bad NPC back!

Keep buffing them every season as well, don’t let them become noodles!

  • Fixed an issue where some Legion quests were unable to be completed once The War Within had been started.

I still can’t get quests don’t on my paladin in Legion.
Khadgar is not in the violet citadel nor is he giving quests on the Broken Shore.
I cannot turn in “The Council’s Call” (leads to other legion weapon skin variants for transmog).
I cannot turn in “Magic Message” (which is crucial for the paladin class/mount question to buy the item off the vendor in disguise).
I cannot pick up “A Falling Star” (which is crucial for the paladin class/mount questline) despite the map showing it’s there.

A side note: I couldn’t turn in “A Falling Star” on my monk because of “the middle teleport bug”, but that was resolved. I can turn it in there, but you cannot pick up the initial quests.

didn’t even need tanks, i was tanking Drek with 4 towers as unholy. its funny once, but not when its every game. they need to put the pvp back into epics.

If I walk in on my Remix character and cannot survive normal activities you are doing it wrong Blizz.

I get it that M+11 (was: 23) keyrunners are going to paste things a bit flatter and probably a lot faster - than my “just dinged 70, got handed remix boost like gear and told good luck” character

but making everyone who tries out the new land feel like we get to drown because your math team didn’t plan for both raiders and walk-first-then-maybe-we-run players?

UGH

Why the hell do I bother? Is this the respect “the player behind the keyboard” is going to keep getting?

That would be a lot easier if it didn’t require exiting the game and a google search to get to these bug forums.

From BattleNet all you get sent to is forums about Bnet itself. I mean, yes, Bnet is seriously broken recently too.

Nice… let’s fix anything that may be interpreted as fun or convenient for the player but leave all the things we actually want addressed (Where’s the universal transmog unlock that was supposed to be part of the LAUNCH of the game?)

Beatings will continue until morale improves.

Yeah it’s odd being shamed for doing objectives and killing other players in a bg. It needs to be impossible to meetup on the hill and go straight in.

I understand perfectly that scaling works by character level instead of by player skill level or worn-equipment gear level.

Their grand efforts to make it “exciting” for max-skill players is going to guarantee that returnees to the game after a long absence are crushed under heel, if they even manage to live THAT long.

I don’t have to do those things, I have 2 monitors and I have the forums bookmarked. Haven’t seen any prolonged issues with bnet either.

Someone at Blizz must have noticed my gameplay earlier today, after I completed the event then found the quest afterward and made the walk of shame back over to run it all over again. :dracthyr_crylaugh:

When will the Mosswool Polymorph be fixed for Alliance Players? (Only works for Horde)

The change to epic BGs is a mistake.

Does this mean Faerin will spawn finally? I also don’t have any world quests.

Thank you so much, for this! ! ! I am incredibly grateful. :heart:

The art for the weapons is so pretty. :heart:

Are we not going to discuss the immersion breaking audio cutting out after every cutscene? I was… WAS… heavily invested in the story since the voice acting was so improved this go round that it kept me logging in.

Now all the hard work y’all did is ruined simply from the audio breaking every cutscene and afterwards all voice acted NPCs are broken too. Checking around, tons of ppl are having this issue so its not just me.

C’mon guys. you wanna keep player retention, then fix things that make players WANT to play.

Seriously, it’s not even a joke anymore. FIX BETWEEN THE EYES, I can’t believe we’ve gone this long without a fix for a CORE SKILL FOR THE SPEC. Holy hell…
