I wish I gave a fucking shit about artifact colours and skins, but it's pretty impossible to when you're permanently purple and your weapon is physically small. #ShadowPriestLife

Like seriously, why didn't they bother even tinting the colour of our shadowform haze, or introducing slightly different fog/haze effects for each artifact skin? Would be miles easier to implement than all those awesome Druid skins.

No love.

I seriously miss having that toggle on/off for priests. I have a shadow one too. The glyph where it makes it less apparent is not good enough. Add that toggle back Blizz!

It's coming in patch 7.1 I believe.

Weren't you able to transmog swords into daggers and vice versa? They should bring that back..

This ended on the last page at the end. :( Just wanted to say how proud I am to do this. It was hard. But at first people thought it was a drop that starts this process, maybe so, but you don't need it. You just have to glide from a high mountain in highmountain until you see a bat flying around felsoul hold. You have to fight him midair. At some point he will knock you high into air, glide back on him and keep it up. If you fall to the ground accidentally like I did you have to start over. :( Kill him and he gives you the skin.

I wonder why rogues don't grief the fk out of Suramar City - eg sap players near stealth detectors or when making wine. It seems perfect for them.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
Even rogues hate Suramar. Also, the stealth detectors all pierce stealth.
 
It wouldn't be ruins. The Draenei were a small faction of Eredar that didn't join Sargeras and had to flee Argus. Most of them followed KJ and Archie.

I guess I just imagine all Legion worlds look like bleak, ruined wastelands but seeing fel-themed Eredar cities could be cool too.

I feel like Alvy in Annie Hall listening to the dude talk about Marshall McLuhan when I'm on my warlock having to interact with demon hunter NPCs

Its supposed to be the Legion's HQ and I have to imagine the Eredar would be so prideful about themselves that they'd likely keep it much as it once was, except fel-ified in places.

Basically going "look at us, we were Sargeras' first choice, nyah nyah, take it in losers".

Greeeeeat, "Retrieving Item Information" on a quest item for a class hall quest. Hopefully I can abandon and get it back, though I was almost done with the damn quest.

I love that the Felblaze Ingress questline with Tehd mocking the Eredar portals, if you're demonology, Thal'kiel basically mocks Tehd's mocking

Just some really annoying bug. There's a couple of supposed fixes but htey don't always work. I had it happen to my mythic keystone last week, annoyingly.

I think it's just a cache issue they have going on? Restoring the client MIGHT fix it, as well as just letting it 'retrieve' for a while. Happened to me yesterday with both a trinket and an artifact power item, it was annoying.

He only drops it if you are at AK5, so anyone attempting that method without the AK part, its useless.

Also, I got the drop after farming like 20 mobs in Surumar. She'll toss you up to him and you can fight him easier.

Xavius down on heroic.

I loved how long the execute phase lasted on him, I was able to get my Jugg buff up to, like, 25 or something.

Is there a way to export your addon profiles? I don't know what happened but I keep getting errors, even though I changed nothing. I submitted a bug but author says check FAQ and its only 6 things. One is about adding something, but I didn't add anything. Useless git.

So I basically need to redo everything.

Save the addon and WTF folders.

Honestly, Elemental Shaman seem like they need a change and damage buffing isn't going to do it.

I don't think ranged casters should hit MOP levels, but I think we should have at least one and a Shaman seems the most sensible to me because they need something to make up for the lack of damage and mages already have so many tricks they can do on the move while still being the non-stop constant gods of ranged damage. At the very least, give LB maneuverability back so hunters aren't the only ranged that can regularly cast while moving.

They even backpedaled on Hunters pretty significantly, you have to be stationary when casting Aimed Shot, which is a good chunk of what marks hunters cast now. But as for your point, I don't think casting LB while moving is this magical fix everyone thinks it is. There isn't so much movement in raids/mytic+ that every ranged class is losing out on tons of damage because of it, so it wouldn't really prop ele up. They would just be low damage but be able to underperform on the move. All the top parses you see are the people who got lucky and barely had to move anyway, as luck is a huge factor in getting a top parse.

Ele just has low damage while also having no niche. No random mechanic to prop them up in certain situations. Unfortunately its been that way for a while for ele, and I don't know what they could do to change it. Unfortunate, really, since I quite like how ele plays and the idea of it, but since TBC it has been overshadowed by enh.

I wonder why rogues don't grief the fk out of Suramar City - eg sap players near stealth detectors or when making wine. It seems perfect for them.

I had a rogue spend ~15 min sapping me during the escort World Quest in suramar, so that the mob would walk away and the quest would fail. Nothing I could do about it, even trinketing the first sap his next two would last long enough to fail the quest. Was pretty stupid, and probably constitutes griefing but not gonna bother reporting him, just logged off for a bit.

I abandoned the quest and it immediately restored the tooltip for the item where it was on my hotbars.

Edit: Apparently that fixed the other two items that were borked in my bags, too? What a weird bug.

Out of curiosity, anyone know if the quest to kill Il'gynoth that you get from that item from a follower mission has a time limit (once you get it, I mean)?

And can you kill Il'gynoth again if you've done it once (on LFR since I just wanna get it done quick) or should I just wait 'til next week?

Demonology's artifact and styles are great but that ramp up time is insane and the people on the Warlock discord make it sound like it's a terrible spec compared to Destro for EN due to all the movement heavy fights.

Which is kind of one of those, 'why did you even make the spec like this?' moments for me regarding destruction. How often are we even doing turret fights in WoW anymore? Almost never and Demonology has insane ramp up time without any of the great ticks that Affliction has.

It feels like a spec that was made for Burning Crusade or vanilla.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
The streak is broken, 2 legendaries in my guild tonight. One from raid and one right after. I didn't get either of course, but that's fine. I got a Nightmare Whelpling pet!

It's a dead horse at this point, but Demonic Empowerment making it live as-is is fucking baffling. How anyone at Blizzard thinks that is part of a good spec defies logic.

I know I've said this a number of times, but god I love returning to older raids and just blazing through it.

Realized there were a few MoP sets I want to put together. I can get the burning scroll set for my mage in something htat isn't a hideous green!

(Seriously why was it that so many LFR sets back in MoP were green?)

Maw of Souls +8 done. Sanguine is nothing and our monk says Overflowing isn't that bad. Those lantern guys though, holy shit don't even pull them if you can avoid it.

It's really weird, I've developed a very late love for the Pandaren. Didn't really like Pandaria that much at the time of launch, and I thought the new race was the stupidest possible thing.... but now years later I kind of love them. Started a monk and the racial animations are just excellent. They also have some of the best sound bytes on interaction, hands-down:

"Slow down. Life.... is to be savored."

Also how did you get that panorama shot?

Just zoomed into first person while flying, disabled UI, then took like 4 or 5 shots and autostitched them in Photoshop.

Overflowing's probably not very bad for Monk because they're always at an HP deficit (or for a healer, their healing is more continuous rather than bursty). I can see it ruining any DH tank.

Court of Stars was a mistake. No good bosses and the gimmicks to pull the bosses are all really lame for repeat playthroughs.

I dont think either of the Suramar mythics are good for repeat playthroughs :/

If I dont get a Legendary on any character today um throwing a hissy fit. Youll see!

No love.

I can feel you, as Blood Elf your weapons are barely noticeable , Fire mage orbs should be able to change to the color of the weapon
 
If they want to "fix" ele beyond just buffing dps, they need to rework mastery. Movement is really not that big of a deal, particularly since so many fights have very predictable movement.
