For people complaining there isn't enough content - Move on or fill the time playing/doing something else? Wanna know how you burn yourself out of a game? By playing nothing but that one game (or at least expecting to). Seriously, I'm a "lifer" of a player myself (recently did the math, just on my top 3 played toons, and it's close to 17,000 hours played, 708 days, just under 2 YEARS of in-game playtime, over the last 14 years), and I haven't raided in any capacity above LFR since early Cataclysm. I realized I got more enjoyment out of playing other games, and not being anchored to WoW like a job. As someone who raided rather seriously during Classic, I can definitely vouch to it being "like a job", when your raid schedule is 6 days a week, 4+ hours a night, and that is not even counting consumable prep or wanting to do anything else outside of the raid. And yes, for the record, I saw almost all of Naxx40. Nobody on our server beat it before TBC went live, but my guild was the only one that killed Four Horsemen and got to even try Sapphiron, while it was current.For people saying "8.1 had nothing for content".... I'm sorry, but what? A whole 9-boss raid, zone incursions, further war campaign questline, a whole new Warfront, additional island expedition maps. What the hell do you want, content the size of an expansion every 4 months, for FREE? Get over yourself. It is not the devs fault you rip through the content in the quickest amount of time you can possibly muster, and then cry about "no content", and you equally complain about time-gated content when they are indirectly telling the playerbase to slow the hell down and wait. Wanna see a bunch of devs burnout and leave the project/company? Good way to do it is by overworking them to meet some insane (and small) portion of the playerbase's demands of "MOAR!".For people saying "This guide doesn't include ________"... did you read what it said about being for things you can work towards and prepare for now, in advance? No? Thought so, explains your post. Plenty more things are involved in the patch than what is shown in the guide, but you cannot do anything to "prepare" for in advance.To the article now: Well, thank you for reminding me that I need to level that Demon Hunter the rest of the way (only 110 Alliance toon). Been trying to avoid it, but, I also collect mounts. Just heard less than great things about the Alliance story arc compared to the Horde one (from friends who have done both). Got my profession to 150, hoping that the new toy will have some value to it (and not require Mythic Dungeons to get, it's just my laziness more than capability). New portal rooms will... take a short bit of time to adjust to using, still got all my other ways to get around via items though (1 to somewhere in EK/Kalim, 1 to TBC, 2 to WotLK, 1 to Pandaria, 1 to Draenor, 1 to Legion, 1 to Zandalar). Timewalking and Darkmoon Faire tickets, I am so far behind on both... one day I'll get all the collectables... one day.
I just wanted flying ...
Again, still laughing at all the people complaining about the loss of "convenience" with the removal of portals, and yet they're still going to try out Classic, where "convenience" is about as laughable an idea as "class balance".
Oh gosh. More Allied races. I have too many alts already!
Best way to prepare is to use this last week to travel among the old portals as much as possible, just portal hop all week long!
I still think that there could be some account-wise rep unlock, like if you got exalted with a certain faction on any toon, you get exalted with all your alts IF they're max level. One can dream.
Just piling on about portal removal in Legion's Dal and Shrines. I still disagree with this action and the "enjoy the world" argument Blizz has manufactured. I admire the World plenty without this crap.Super excited about the rest of the content being added. ADDED.
Anybody know what Kaivax is alluding to here:"go see Magni after maintenance next week."Is this another uplift for the neck that I've not heard about elsewhere? Does anybody have any tangible information on that quote?https://www.cuckhead.com/bluetracker?topic=116653®ion=us
Secondary stat stacking doesn't matter anymore? Every piece of azerite gear now has bis traits for every spec in every situation?
