"The formula for determining the level of the first Mythic Keystone players receive each week has been adjusted.
Previously, players would always receive a Keystone 1 level below the highest they’d completed so far in Season 1.
After this change, Keystone level will continue to decrease by 1 per week until players again complete a higher level Keystone.
For example, a player who completes a level 15 Keystone will receive a level 14 Keystone the following week. If they do not complete a 15 or higher Keystone that week, they will receive a level 13 Keystone the week after."

I won’t bother. Blizz is adding this change deliberately to sabotage the patch because they disagree with what the playerbase want. So when they implement a positive change, they have to make a negative one as well because they are a bunch of petty children throwing tantrums.

Players were taking a break between weeks – can you imagine that?! Taking a break, Blizzard can’t have players taking breaks! Gotta play every week.

Why not just buff the other specs? Why does everyone have a hard on for seeing other specs nerfed.

Because buffing underperforming specs to bring them inline with overperforming specs is never going to happen. Asking for nerfs at least is in the realm of possibility, even if it seems underhanded and shifty.

This change was already in pvp, and you can still kill somebody with convoke faster than they can kick you at times. Needs a nerf.

“yyarr sad dragon” ._.
I should’ve read the patch notes first. Well looks like the community mount is coming at least.
I suppose anything is possible, but its hard to believe no one know where the NPC is a few days before its launch. The only thing I can think of is it requires an item that CAN be upgraded before anything is interactable.
We’re already s-tier, and condemn is already causing issues in PvP due to it’s synergy with death sentence.
We don’t need this buff in PvP.

Yes. Previously it was a PvP nerf. I’m not sure why they’re nerfing boom-boxing/cat-weaving outside of PVP.
That could be it .I’ve heard any m+ gear already worn can’t be upgraded.
Good lord, I need to finish leveling my mage lol.

Always the answer to, what class is best? What class should I play? What class always gets buffed and never nerfed consistently? What class is at the top and expects to get more buffs?
This is just straight up terrible. What the hell is going on with Blizzard? I desperately wish a blue would pop up on these forums and let us know, once and for all, that they have given up on Shadowlands so that we can all lower our expectations.
This list of “patch” notes is embarrassing.
