This reward change is illogical and should be immediately reverted. Ignoring the Soaked Journal Entry item for purchase from the Derby vendor, as a player would easily get to max level fishing if they do this weekly quest, there are 3,140 Mereldar Derby Marks needed to purchase all items from the vendor and max out the Seekerthreads and Anglerthreads. From this change, one character can get a max of 23 Derby Marks/week. It would take 137 weeks for a single character to purchase all the items. There are 52 weeks in a year which would mean 2.7 years to earn all items if I started working on this today?! This isnât achievable within the lifespan of this expansion unless the expansion timeline is greatly being extended from what was presented when TWW was announced. Blizzard has essentially made this now alt REQUIRED to finish within the timeline of the expansion. As a player that rarely plays an alt, it is saddened to me that this change was implemented without some explanation. This change truly has destroyed my desire to do the weekly this morning when prior to the change it was something I looked forward to the past few Saturdays. Revert this illogical change, please.
First the data loss on the guild banks and now a stupid nerf to the fishing weekly.
I didnât see that youâre deleting siege of boralus.
Please clarify

Alot of good changes.
Could we see Sanctified Alloys always be provided for BS orders that require them as these are extremely expensive to make?
Also can we have our bulk amount of Patron Orders that give us our Profession Knowledge reset on Tuesday with weekly reset instead of Friday?
ARE WE GOING TO IMPLEMENT THIS!!! PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO IT.
Agreed, in their attempt to throttle the rate at which altaholics could obtain all items (as if anyone really cared except Blizzard themselves) Blizzard have, to use an over-used but totally valid phrase here, nerd single character players TO THE GROUND!
still no stealth break fixes?
While I donât disasgree⌠if you think blacksmith doesnât already have it WAY easier than any otrher profression as far as patron orders go, youâve never done any other prof. lol
My blacksmith has probably done twice as many easy patron orders as any other profession.
Prioritizing boss tuning around the RWF when the majority of your players are left suffering through terrible bugs and overtuned trash. Unacceptable.
Surgeon stitchflesh still needs a damage nerf.
Erudax tentacles need to despawn and the entire fight needs to be fixed for better visual clarity. You need to stand on a tiny little area and you cant see tentacles underneath him.
Mechanist boss needs to be updated so the flame vent openings dont change while the globs are releasing from the center.
Siege of Boralus is still super broken for small races and the last boss needs the knockback removed.
- Shaman
- Enhancement
- [With realm restarts] With 2 stacks of Tempest available, Primordial Wave will now cause you to cast additional Lightning Bolts as intended, instead of casting additional Tempests.
Welp, Worst day ever
Why do they keep nerfing enhancement⌠While the ret pallys just pressing 3 buttons doing x3 dmg.
