Today's WoD Beta Update

Shiftiness

Legend
- JP no longer exists
- Honor vendor does not sell the Honor/JP exchange item
- Each BoA costs 475g
- Priests: Holy nova down to 160 per tick per casts (still instant without cooldown)
- Priests: Applying a bubble gives you borrowed time (at level 20)
 
looks like i need to get my haste trinks,int trinks, intellect shield, and book by the time wod hits,

btw does the darkmoon faire heirloom vendor sell any other heirlooms?
 
- Darkmoon faire doesnt seem to be active on Beta; I tried to use the portal to go there last time it was up, but it would just port me back to my hearthstone
- Stats on PvP BoA are currently still the same as on live; they still have Resil but the character panel does not have Resil listed so we will likely not gain any benefit from it (resil may be replaced with something else in an upcoming patch?)
 
I flew to Dalaran, but it seems those vendors are pretty broken. They don't list any rep tokens, however, they are also missing many other items and many times do not have any purchase prices (you can freely buy things without any cost on Beta). I think we will have to wait till that is fixed or PTR to know more on the token costs. I assume they will be cheap enough for us to purchase since they only cost 16JP
 
Resilience will more than likely be turning into versatility. In my opinion, versatility may be a go to secondary stat for heals and FCs as it reduces incoming damage as well as adds a little power.

With all this updating, I'm still surpised they're using old Boa Models. Seeing its some of the most used and most common gear for levelers, and them making it so easy to obtain, they should at least re-texture and update the current boa models. Nothing different, but just a little bit better and up to par.

i noticed that the heirlooms are based on the lvl 60 gear in Molten Core/Blackwing Lair

Yea ik. That's was about 9 years ago though. I love their looks. They just need some touching up. esp when they do MC for 100 on 10 year anniversary
 
Well, if it means anything to you, i think most of the old gear looks better on the new models. Couldn't say why tbh. Although boots look abit weird, like toe socks lol.

I guess it's that oldschool vibe. I feel that way, too sometimes. Kinda like lookin at a vanilla 19 rogue twink.

Might be worth tweeting at them about that? That's a pretty common sense change that someone at Blizz might be able to get behind.
 
DMF started today. Have you checked if BOAs are still available via tickets?

All there, same prices, no shields or off hand. The upgraded versions (until 85) cost their regular price + 500g.

Someone asked it somewhere: armor kits did not change. They still give +8/+16.

Didn't know I had beta access, I assumed I would never get it. brought some of my alts onto the leveling realm. The first being my prot warrior, obviously to test shield slam.... It hits like a wet noodle, like literally a wet noodle. I haven't seen my rogue yet, though. Im hoping when the 6.0 PTR comes out more twinks and people with leveling alts will come and we can test things out fully. I have the faintest glimmer of hope.

Getting more on-topic, If heirlooms start to cost gold, those of you who have an active P2P account might wanna buy what heirlooms your missing, or upgrade ones that haven't been upgraded yet, although blizzard is apparently increasing the gold that you get for the completion of random dungeons, plus in other places as well, so the time it takes to grab one heirloom might be the same as it is now.
 
Update for all the horde priest twinks: Disc priest bubble now grants borrowed time at level 20. You can drop the poison extraction totem and cast bubble on it and get borrowed time. Between putting a bubble on yourself and it, you can have borrowed time for 12 seconds plus if anyone around you is bubble-able. Tested this on beta and it works.
