    I've never been less excited about a new WoW patch... not even sure if I'll even care enough to log after the patch goes live.

    Awesome stuff. I see the usual suspects whining about nothing again. Also pet battle dungeons are more popular then you might think.

    Well to all those specs that complain because you got a temporary nerf to your class, at least yours is temporary. BeastMaster Hunters have been broken since Cataclysm!

    6/19 of those points are "content," 3/6 things are about 1-2 hours of combined one-time content. Best X.1 patch by far. Beats WoD's 6.1 right?!?!? Its hard to not go over the bar when the bar is on the floor Blizzard... Probably the thing I 'love' the most about this patch is everyone getting excited over exp 'nerfs' that Blizzard pretty much reverted exp rates back to how they were before 7.3.5. Blizzard getting praised for reverting a change......

    TBH it has more content than peeps have been saying, but I'm not sure how much I'll be doing. I went back and had to grind reps for the heritage armor, which was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be, because I just had to buy a tabard, wear it and run quick dungeons a handful of times to get exalted. I def prefer this Rep grind over WQ's!

    Then I had fun selling all the BoE gear.

    But like peeps have said, this amounts to only very little gameplay.

    I hope IE's are more fun now that players have a somewhat better understanding of how they work with the new changes. Grinding these for vendor stuff is a lot better than guessing what should be done for RNG chances at who knows what.

    Warfronts are cool a handful of times as they can be a good source of gear, but that dries up fairly quick also.

    I'll give it a shot until my sub expires in April, but after I get burned out of trying to get all classes on both sides to cap I prbly won't come back until next expac.

    The cycle is of awesome expac followed by crappy follow by awesome, and this is the crappy one?

    Well with that said, and the news about their stock situation (for whatever reason) coming out, the next one should be the best/biggest/flashiest expac ever!

    Gut Out!

    What, me worry?

    You really have to use a cheat sheet to see which pets counter other pet classes.

    I miss the Blizzard of a decade ago, but I am excited to see what Rob Pardo is currently doing at Bonfire, if they can stay independent, they will become the new Blizzard.



    Yeah and original WoW team has no plans to return to Blizzard after Diablo Immortal fiasco.

    I'm quite confident that BfA took the title "Worst WoW Expansion" from WoD. At least WoD had a great leveling experience, and the garrisons were at least "new" content. WoD's downfall was post-launch content - which BfA seems to do equally bad at.

    All BfA ever accomplished was adding more of the same in general, but on top of that it had an utterly pointless leveling experience, an absolutely terrible story(s), more RNG nonsense that should have died with Legion legendary armor drops, and to add insult to injury it took a lot of the combat flow that classes attained in Legion and replaced it with... Nothing, besides a feeling of playing a gimped version of your class.

    I know it won't happen but frankly they need to do a complete systems and balance revert back to Legion, just minus RNG legendary drops or item level/secondary rolls. But even if they did that, you'd still have an absolutely generic expansion in terms of content. It certainly is an expansion that broke a personal record for me - shortest resub time.

    It hadn't been brought up here yet, so then I will do it:

    The only one who can kill WoW is Blizzard themselves and they currently seem to be trying very hard to accomplish this very feat.
