Looks like the DF ilvl changes are up on the PTR....

[Loveto]

Thats good to hear, need to play my mage more. Hows fire doing? I specced into did couple dungeons and been on shaman ever since

I stopped playing fire mage when Blizz in their infinitely bad wisdom added a long cooldown on greater pyroblast. I think a player should be rewarded for getting 4+ second casts off with spells like greater pyro and soul fire.

I leveled an ele shaman through 20's a while back and they're pretty fun with all the procs. Haven't played since the new trees. Are ele's at the right power level at 29?

As of today(before patch)an ungemmed and enchanted ele does more damage than a fully decked out(ToC/ICC 5mans) enh. But enh feels nicer to me, the synergy and procs work well.
Im hoping this changes a bit with this patch.
Overall they are good but i do find them a tad dull
(Fire shock, lava burst on cd and lighting blast/chain spam with odd earth shock/quake)

Im planning a mastery and crit stacked build for this patch, depending how it goes with ilvl changes, gives us access to stronger gems, outside sl gems, can still get +7gems. Hoping to get double lava burst smacking like a truck, probably a bit of glass canon mess around but could be a giggle

One of the few classes i didnt even sniff at in prepatch... theyre always kinda ok at least, not gonna reinvent any wheel testing those.

Yeah, nothing really jumped out about mages pre-patch. I think everyone could see WW monks and warlocks dominate. Glad they nerfed both some.

I think Blizz is overlooking DH and spriest. Seen some DH do tons of damage in 30s and 40s BGs. And played a spriest to level 27 and easily #1-3 in damage and #1 usually in horde healing (even more than healers). Blizz of course keeps increasing DH and spriest damage every tuning pass.

I will hibernate like the bear and wake back up in 4 months to birds chirping after this stank-fuck-trashfire has burned itself out.

I took 15 months off from WoW, didn't miss it much after playing 16 years. Sometimes it's good to step away. Haven't bought Dragonflight. I think I'm looking forward to Diablo 4 more.

Well I hope you still come here and complain about it every day.

That's a given.

I think they removed stuff like marks aimed shot in pvp +damage

I don’t fully understand this comment? Are you saying MM can’t use Aimed Shot in PvP? Or that MM has no additional damage modification on the Aimed Shot in PvP?

Removal of the additional modifier in pvp.

I could not resist logging into see the shit show

Shadowland greens are just off in lala land looks like? i158 and should be i86(ish)

 

[Loveto]

Yeah,

• i194 rares and i170 greens in SL dungeons
• level 30 required on many other dungeon rare drops
• previous expansion crafted gear ilvl being unchanged and worthless
• some old greens bumped up in required level so previously equipped level 19 ilvl 28 on a level 20 became red and unusable as it needs level 21

A shit show as expected. I think they may have topped every previous patch failure.

 

[Chops]

I think they may have topped every previous patch failure.

pretty mild compared to SL launch, honestly.

 

[JadeFire]

Hopefully after 3 months we'll just be back to item level i86 all around... maybe some ToC grandfatered 112 child gear... will be fine.

 

[Warglave]

I got ilvl 86 boss loot last night, wtf. Unfair. Blizz sucks.

All you Mfkrs are evil and i hate you stop ruining our bracket.... until i get a piece and then its "fair"..... sucks for everyone else.

That's how it works, right?

 

[Chops]

That's how it works, right?

what youre supposed to do is ignore everyone on the forums telling you about high ilvl gear, refuse to get it while you can and then whine for two years (even well after its nerfed) about the fact that other people had it.

 

[Dragonstormy]

So I got the event trinket some hours ago. It's ilvl 54 as stated, the proc is kinda rare. Does between 90-182 dmg each proc with my testing. I think it has no CD tho. Gives you a buff of 15 random secondary ea time. Looks quite... useless. The proc looks cool tho.
Because the buff also infects other players, it could be useful support in multiplayer, if it scales with your highlvl pvp comrades.

 

[JadeFire]

If you just get the greens and bank on them not fixing them, you'll just one shot everybody anyway. But, the greens seem to be the thing that gets fixed the quickest... and on BH all of the ones that scaled to i150+ have already been bought up and relisted at 100-200k a piece .

 

[toskosa]

Note to self, stay away from bgs for a while rofl.

 

[JadeFire]

yeah little kids have 12k hp running around, item levels need to get fixed to i86 will then be worth even queuing.

 

[Goohd]

the sad part is that THERE WILL BE people who buy those greens for 200k a pop even with the inevitable nerfs

lmao...
