Yes that is correct. Side note, even though they knew what they were doing, no repercussion.

You mean The Azure Vault right?

#136

or maybe there is a secret dungeon we are unaware of called the Arcane Vaults. :dracthyr_a1:

#137

Still nothing on the Preservation “Spell Not Learned” issue with Spiritbloom and macros… Please fix it, it’s super frustrating having to log out to use the spell if I change specs.

#138

Nice additions :slight_smile: I’m really excited for the solo shuffle changes too!

#139

Why is the Rumbling Ruby trinket so bad? I have the heroic raid version and it sims at 1.6% of my dps. Simmed on 08/01/2023 so all hotfixes are up to date in the sim. Even on wowhead it is one of the lowest simming trinkets.

#140

We are doing Heroic Grimtotem and is anyone else seeing INCREDIBLY more damage coming from each slice’s abilities? We switched to 4 healers and putting out 180k HPS and still lose people with mechanics done well.

#141

Is this broken? None of my toons can access a skip. Did you guys make it require level 70?

I think you may have meant for this to be under the resto shaman section? It’s currently under the resto Druid tab :slight_smile:

Fix the Solo Shuffle que times already. Blizzard is ruining the game.

Ways to fix Solo Shuffle que times:

  1. Make a Solo Shuffle mode that works like Arena Skirmishes
  2. Make another Solo Shuffle mode for only DPS
  3. Bring back the tank ques
  4. Remove healer ques like you did for tanks

Instead of fixing Solo Shuffle, Blizzard has made it worse with the 30 minutes to hours of que times for one match by removing the tank ques before launch which has ruined the weekly great vault for most of WoW’s playerbase. WoW is almost 2 months in and there is still no fix to the most popular rated PvP activity in the game.
