If I remember right, all the rings gives %xp boost but they are from quests/events. No trinket or neck gives xp increase so I wouldnt bother. The statloss arent that big that it matters anyway.

Yeah, I just went and looked. Having to pay to upgrade them doesn't seem worth it to me atm.

Thinking about getting new keyboard & mouse soon. Also maybe headset. Anyone have experience with: Razer Blackwidow Chroma keyboard, Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum mouse, or Steelseries Siberia line headsets?
Not if you're leveling. I die every time on a couple of them when they pull abilities that should hurt you if you stay in them, but the first tick is more than my max hp. Mostly the Pitlord with its green circles, those things tick for 30k+ when I have 24k hp :d
Same, so annoying

I made a tauren paladin and named him Palabunga. It's so hard to find a good name that I've resorted to bad puns.
ooh that Tanaan one would help, is it always in the same place?
edit: just found a video guide, will try to get it then (never been to Tanaan except once on my hunter to tame a wolf lol)

My wife has that keyboard. the keys are clicky as shit. Feels sturdy, and my WPM went up typing on it when I was testing it.
I have the diablo 3 version of the v2 headset. It's fine. I used it as my only audio option for like 2+years until I got tired of using a headset
same problem with my priest except I keep getting a god damn wand
I haven't used a wand in 9 years, stop this.

I really miss my WW having FoF stun even for PVE.
My guess would be that its just a routine way for them to have a clear break between expansions and hit the reset button on power levels.

Got into a HFC normal group yesterday at 705 ilvl. The bosses seemed to have less HP than even LFR, or I think it was because the others in raid actually had gear and able to do DPS properly. One shotted the bosses I was there for, even got Archi normal. I was sad that I didn't join this group earlier, very smooth run. People even explained mechanics without being dbags.
I thought it was weird, so I went into LFR HFC right after and oh god the awfulness of players there.
Makes me understand why HFC heroic groups keep declining my apps, why would they take someone who has the stink of LFR all over them with 706ilvl?
Still feels bad that I most likely won't get a chance at that mount. I don't even know why I want it at this point -- so many people have it from being carried, it hardly means anything anymore.

Is this true?
"Well according to recent data and beta videos and profession guides you are going to benefit in some way of having stuff like this.
Blacksmithing/Mining
JewelCrafting/Mining
Engineering/Mining
Leatherworking/Skinning
Alchemy/Herbalism
Inscription/Herbalism
Tailoring/Enchanting
I think tailoring is going to be the only profession that can be "Comboed" with enchanting."

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
There are multiple threads in both the warlock classs forum and general forum that basically amount to "seriously blizzard, what the fuck?" It's kind of baffling the state they are in going into Legion's launch.

...so the gauntlets were hotfixed AGAIN back to 685?
The sword is crap, it actually lowers my ilevel if I want to use it.
Especially since Blizzard's stance on them is a big ol' cone of silence. They carved most of our cool stuff out, handed them to other classes, nerfed the shit out of us and called it a day.
The hotfixes are out of control
I wish they would put in an option to take out the "story" aspects of running dungeons/raids. I'm really getting tired of hearing Arthas and co go on and on for minutes at a time, I just want to kill them. I've pretty much been turning off all sounds and listening to music to avoid it all.

You need to pair it with an offhand. Did you do that? Can get a 710 one from the PvP vendor.

Well wow forums are 70% whining, 29% trolling and 1% rp. I regret myself everytime I go there.. :<
Ive been playing demo with mine for a few hours and it feels pretty fresh and interesting with some new kind of playstyle.
What are the main complaints right now? Playstyle or nerfs?

Wow, low-level Inscription is stupidly easy to level and maxing out ink research takes very little research compared to WoD. Used to have to gather 400-600 of a plant/pigment variety to gain enough pigment to create enough ink to max out a specific ink research and learn all of the glyphs of that level/ink. Now you just need like 150-ish. I maxed out Moonglow Ink research learning 4 glyphs. I think saying removing major glyphs streamlined Inscription is a bit of an understatement.
The time/resource investment is nothing compared to what it was before. And it's weird when you look at Blacksmithing or Leather Working, for example, which still have all of their old costs for time and resources.
What's so weird about pairing the natural gathering profession with its natural crafting profession? Tailoring/Enchanting is the one outlier of dual crafting professions, but at least leveling tailoring the oldschool way can feed you low-level enchanting mats, on top of whatever you can find and DE from quests and dungeons.

Agreed. Got me thinking if i'm gonna main elemental instead of warlock
Hope it's nothing major, because my main has 2 crafting professions, while i have an alt with herbalism/mining and there is no way I'm gonna change that considering how long it takes to lvl up from 1 to 700.

I guess it depends on who you ask, but for me it's definitely a playstyle issue. I agree that demo seems pretty cool at first, but after a little while (especially in a dungeon/raid environment) its inherent issues start to become increasingly visible. The amount of time it takes to actually be doing decent damage compared to most other specs is a big one - You cast doom, shadow bolt, summon dreadstalkers, demonic empowerment, cast shadowbolt 4 more times, hand of gul'dan, demonic empowerment, and by then your dreadstalkers are about gone. That's about 13 global cooldowns. It's the worst ramp-up time in the game and makes target-swapping potential incredibly poor, issues that make the spec bad at both mythic+ dungeons (due to being awful at trash pack DPS) and any raid fight that isn't mostly a single target burn (which is most of them.)
Then there's the issues with Demonic Empowerment itself just being a total fucking chore of a mechanic. It's the worst version of a "maintenance buff" the game has ever had, because you have to cast it so god damn often.
I tried to hold out, but I've given up. I'm going DK. Hopefully by 7.2 or whatever Blizzard will decide to fix at least one of the warlock specs.
Also destro just had one if it's main sources of damage significantly nerfed with just a token buff to incinerate to compensate. So not even Destro is looking that good atm.
Both, really. Destro pulls respectable numbers at cap, afli is ok ande demo is ass - and each spec has a bunch of jank introduced into it.
Oh wow those Immolate nerfs. What the fuck blizz. Might as well switch to playing a mage, you'll do everything better but don't look as cool.
What time exactly is shit happening?
The reason for this is that there is a BOP item called Blood of Sargeras. It is used for crafting and upgrading crafted items. It's generally easier to get from gathering professions, however they said you will still be able to get your fair share as a non-gathering profession through world quests and such.
Apparently at 4 PM EST on Slootbag's twitch channel.
because shadow burn is a talent in a tree with some other strong options
