General PTR (all brackets)

A topic to discuss stuff currently on the PTR.

I'm on it, in less than 10gbs! I already have my characters copied so will be able to see how bad things are for certain levels (60, 70, 80, 50)

EDIT: Doh looks like they removed the characters off it. So no copied characters yet -.-

New UI looks pretty good though, less clusterfucking.

ok so I just got on ptr recently like this morning and it is already a let down for me. Classes are 2 shotting, new nameplates look cheesy to me I hope I am not the only one that hates this prepatch. The only upside I really have is that I like some of the animations..... Please I would love to hear your guys thoughts about ptr update.
 
I went to WC right away, nothing was changed so probably not on PTR. Sets had two forms though so that was interesting to see. I like the new UI myself. Ability-pruning got ridiculous though.
 
what server you all play on PTR ?
 
I just made a topic myself, couldn't you have used that? :p

I didn't see your thread :/
 
I'm on Brill-EU leveling a character now, can buy enough heirlooms to unlock the bike, then it's not so bad to get to level 10.

had 1 handers as fury on live but now wearing a 2 hander called greataxe of fury which according to wowhead is a 610 item, but this is ilevel 24. idk if they give you these when you hit level 20 or something idk...

Edit: it's a bug, says requires level 98 to use the appearance. Maybe this weekend we can get some people together and test some stuff out.

Screenshot? My computer is too shitty to handle wow and the ptr :(
 
I just won a BG on my lvl 100 and unlocked the first option in the 2nd row of honor talents.....I thought honor talents were for lvl 110 only? Wonder if it's a bug. If not, great news for lvl 109 twinks.

edit - i just double checked. Beta is saying lvl 110 for honor talents but the PTR is saying lvl 100. And you can unlock them at lvl 100 even though there is no progress bar. Very odd.
 
Wew bois, copy character is working. Time to check everything out, I'll mainly be looking at changes to unobtaible items, but ye.
 
One-handed BoA maces are giving +86 intellect at level 49, seems legit.

Certain set bonuses have <Legacy Set: Bonus is Inactive> while other sets are completely functioning.

The conversion of leather --> mail, mail --> plate remove any transmo's you might've used that no longer work. For example I had Herod's Shoulders on my shaman transmo, because it turned plate, it got removed.

A low-level shield now has Mastery, peculiar.

Seriously a load of abilities for low-levels now, much better than it was previous

how does scaling work in BG'S? Same as the current system? Do items with pvp power on them make a difference?
 
Late last night (morning) I did a few xp-off lvl 60 skirmishes. Each player was given a specific template according to their class/spec and Ilvl had NO EFFECT. I could take off gear without it doing anything to my template (except sword and shield). I don't know if this is intended or they just don't have low level stuff for PvP in place yet. Just sharing what i found.
 
How about procs and chance on hits, did they matter or do enchants get cut off as well (weapon enchants/effects)

I've been hitting training dummies, my 60 had a 14k crit Shield Slam on a training dummy, getting 3 stacks took a while though.
 
I've only been testing DPS on 50/60/70 and 80 so far, all seem to be pretty close to the original.

Hunter's only viable spec seems Survival now though, which is a shame.
