Meh, I've had this damn thing for so long it's nice to see my upgrade will be a black Karabor. Looks pretty spiffy and like it might actually get to show the enchant!

There is still a ~1 yard deadzone on the PTR. It's so small though that it will be near impossible to consistently exploit.

It's amusing that you receive a straight buff and ask "Why?"
Are there no maxhp-1 damage abilities in BC? I thought L5 Charge was one.

L5 Charge does 100% of your health, hence having to avoid death with PW:S.

The Aggression change is nice since it lets me dump some of my stupid PvP filler talents for actual DPS, but I still wish they'd do something more about Opportunity, dammit.

Im more concerned with it being a bug than a feature.
If it is indeed intended then it is great and while not increasing fury dps it makes it less of a liability on certain fights with very heavy splash which would be a great thing.

Havent gotten to Mother yet so I wasnt aware of that particular ability but I agree that makes sense.

Prince's Enfeeble.

Im not sure how long this was on test, but when I flew to my favourite grind spot, I found that the warlocks used a much more pleasent to the eye green beam to channel into the spires.

Great change!

Is something completly different, it sets hitpoints to 1. I'm talking about AE effects that put you to 1 hp via damage, however they will kill warriors due to +10% damage in berserker stance.

Prince's Enfeeble reduces your hp to 1 instead of doing damage, as far as i know, because it is a lot more elegant solution than making that ability the exception due to many talents/abilities that reduce damage.

Time for a few screenshots:

You're right. I just made a level 1 female Blood Elf rogue on PTR/Live with identical camera settings, etc.

There's some whining on the PTR forum (yeah, I know) about the melee range being decreased and so on, usually while chasing after a target.





Same thing with my Hunter:





If melee range is 5 yards and has remain unchanged, and you can shoot at 4... why is melee "too far away" at the beginning of ranged attack range? Maybe I'm just too tired. =/

Curious to know more about this. With the quality of the badge loot this is a pretty huge change as it effectively removes rep. It will be nice for main swaps/alts as the rep requirments could be a hassle to grind out but it does devalue things a little more.

That might be kinda neat. Nerf the shit out of naxx, but raise the levels on everything and adjust the loot. Tada! attunment to whatever the first raid instance is. Behold blizzard: Cheap content for casuals!

Back on topic: 36 damage to hemo every attack? Or onto the debuff itself

the debuff now increases the melee damage by 36 but only hast 10 charges.

Apologies - I was mainly talking about if the changes will make live. It seems an odd change to make without a comment on the PTR boards saying they have lowered the requirements for testing or a permanent change being covered off in the patch notes.

I wouldn't mind it being changed to honored, as Blizzard's poor quest design/layout has made getting Hellfire/Lower City keys quite the annoyance unless you power-run your rep to honored before questing. It shouldn't take 5 runs of a dungeon to unlock heroic mode, especially when there's only one available to run.

The Guild Banks appear to be bugged or I dont know. I try giving access to different people to withdraw money and pay repairs but does not seem to be working, could have it done wrong though (doubt that). Anyone else having similar problems?

That's why normal Sethekk Halls is being changed to let you gain rep all through Exalted.

Of course, that still leaves Hellfire as a pain in the behind rep with SH as the remaining only path to Revered*, so I'm curious how they plan to relieve this.

Not that I'm against a rep level adjustment though. Getting more people able to do heroics is always a good thing and would definitely encourage more people to roll more alts (currently my last big pet peeve after the 20-60 leveling changes).

*Yes, CE also only has SV, but then the plant quests and buyable Armaments alleviate that somewhat.

CE also doesn't stop giving you quests at level 62. CE is probably the faction with most people revered.

Not sure if it has already been reported, but Desperate Prayer doesn't seem to trigger the global cooldown any more. My Ooops-macro uses prayer and then healthstone if prayer is on cooldown and both were used in the same action with one keypress on the PTR today. Guess I have to make a new macro with castsequence or something.

Edit: I was mistaken, it was healthstones and the /stopcasting-change.

It's also super-easy to buy up plant parts and grind to honored before stepping foot in Zangarmarsh.

DP definitely still triggers the GCD for me if I just cast it. Could you paste your macro?

Geez, with this many issues on the PTR it seems like it'll be at least a month before it gets rolled out.
