Dispells be like 30 secs on PVP while those jerks can debuff you in 4

When you go into PvP, you have a 'set' of stats that are static across your class/spec that everyone else of that spec/class shares. So basically that static base is increased, it's not a physical buff.

I finally got a Torn Invitation for the fox after doing Nightfallen stuff on multiple characters for months. Got it in the Emissary chest. I'm so done with withered training. I might even quit doing Suramar world quests completely.
I also did the corrupted Ashbringer line. What a pita. At least it's not from drops from Neltharion's Lair and Vault of the Wardens, though. I still have to do that on my Rogue for the Thunderfury swords.

I was so done with Suramar world quests, had full Exalted rep and everything I wanted. Then the new 7.1 Suramar questline last week ended with "Complete 10 Suramar world quests". fffff

Had a discussion in discord, joking around about new specs for some classes. Change survival back to well... survival and make melee a new spec.
Honestly I would love to see a DPS spellcaster spec for Paladin. Yes Priests have disc but I want a caster spec that's all about DPS and healing isn't a focus (Like elemental can heal...but that's not their job in any capacity).

Here's hoping the pattern holds and NA gets sanguine/overflowing this week. I could use a +12 clear.
Do you actually get the artifact appearance if you clear a +15 or does it require finishing the raid questline (which ends in nighthold) for the 'base' version of that appearance? Nevermind how stupid it is to lock the ultimate 5 man accomplishment reward behind a raid, but that would determine how hard we try to get a +15 done in the near future.

These Kirin Tor World Quests where you gotta fly in the sky are quite problematic. If you are falling down it's supposed to warp you back and yet sometimes you don't get warped back which means death. Doubly problematic when the quest is at the top of the Moon Guard fort, because the trek back through all the guards is pretty annoying (and I'm playing as tank, I can only imagine the annoyance for non tanks because of the dismounting).
Requires nighthold
I finally got exalted with my last faction a couple days ago.. it was Court of Farondis. I had exalted with Nightfallen over a month ago. For as stingy as they are with rep, Suramar gets pushed on you pretty hard so it becomes a natural focus point.
What's so bad with the WQs? I mean it's mostly just delivering arcwine, making arcwine and killing a few elves, demons or moths. You just have to ignore the ones in the eastern wing of the city.
I just noticed that Wowhead posts current mythic+ affixes on their 'today in broken isles' thing. But I'm hoping it's inaccurate because it's saying bolstering/skittish for NA. The past few weeks NA has been following EU and I was really looking forward to sanguine/overflowing because it'd be ezmode for my group.
Also god dammit another week and no Soultakers world boss.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
I believe he (Humongris) drops the enhance shaman hidden appearance though, which is nice for those of us who couldn't get it last time due to the hotfix going up in the middle of the week.
Edit: nevermind, he isn't dropping it according to reports.
The Enh appearance was from the boss 2 weeks ago.

It's from a few bosses, it's not tied to just 1 like Frost DK.
Try submitting a ticket for Flotsam and referencing ticket #57750127. I saw others doing that successfully so I gave it a shot and a GM mail it to me a day later. He even wrote a story about a Goblin who traveled back in time to get it for me.
Well then, it's been a good couple of days. Got my second legendary last week, and today, both legendaries went up to 910 with the patch. Then, the world boss dropped an 870 for me, and a second 870 on the bonus roll.
I'm up to 866 average. Fucking PUGs better listen up now when I apply. lol.

Yeah I just put in a ticket actually, saw people posting about successful tickets granting the item.
I'm a 873 Rogue (878 when I actually apply cause it shows your highest item level possible iirc?) and I still get declined for even 2/3 a lot of times.

Is this a good time to mention that you don't need to enter the fort at all to reach that Kirin Tor quest? You can just traipse up the path on the hill next to the bridge. Assuming we're talking about the same one, that is.
People also really love spending 45 minutes in the Falanaar caves for the withered quest when it takes five minutes to do on the surface.
Yeah this system also favors people who have been lucky. If you have 3-5 legendaries right now you are automatically going to have pretty obscene in bags ilevel right now, and it's going to be fake as fuck. Someone with 4 legs can apply to your group lookin like an 885 ilevel player while his equipped gear is actually 865-870. Gotta download that mod that displays ilevel on char inspect now.
so is NA mythic+ really bolstering/skittish this week? I was so sure we would get overflowing/sanguine that I told my group to expect it.
I think my last 3 mythic caches were bracers. Not even good ones. I'm just saving up my luck for an 880 Chrono Shard...
haha yeah I have 3 legendaries for different slots and I had 880 in bags before today. I never pug anyways though so it's wasted on me.

So dumb, loot spec set to Resto on my druid always seems to give me Avoidance gear.
Avoidance does not count towards stat budget....

Doesn't make it any less dumb for a resto druid to get gear with avoidance the last 3 emissary chests and out of 5 characters, 3 which are tanks I have never seen avoidance roll on anything but that character and loot spec. Literally Hundreds of pieces of gear.

Modesty becomes a woman
Do you never take damage by anything? Avoidance isn't a tank stat, it's an everyone stat.
Apparently this Sea Giant world boss isn't one of the Sea Giant world bosses that drop the hidden artifact for Shamans. That hotfix makes me sad.
Avoidance reduces damage from AoE, doesn't it? Its good for any class.

I thought all the world bosses had a chance to drop it
Nah, only Levantus and Flotsam.
Apparently you have to delete your cache and then re-equip the item after you log back in or some fuckery.
Not sure why it doesn't automatically show as 910 with the new stats after server maintenance.
Mythic+ affixes follow a set list, here's a link to a chart of them in order: http://i.imgur.com/dPJH3nd.jpg so last week was Raging/Volcanic/Tyrannical, this week is Bolstering/Skittish/Fortified (aka fuck my life). If there's one thing I want almost less than Necrotic it is Skittish, pair that with Fortified... I just don't see a counter-play for skittish unless I'm missing something (use an all ranged group doesn't count...), I'll just be tanking a pack, 3 mobs will randomly drop aggro, instantly turn and kill our Monk. No indication of when it will happen for him to move out, no delay between aggro drop and them hitting him.
Also yea, you need the Nighthold base acheiv to unlock the +15 clear skin. Presumably, at least, since no one has the Nighthold one yet, but also people who've done +15s haven't unlocked that version of the skin. One of the things that annoy me greatly, since as you said +15 is the ultimate 5 man challenge right now but you aren't rewarded the cosmetic reward for it unless... you do normal raids for a long time...
Avoidance doesn't replace real stats, a crit/haste item and a crit/haste/avoidance item would have identical amount of crit/haste, the avoidance one just also lowers damage you take from AoE attacks. Speed/leech/avoidance/indestructible are just bonus stats for fun, they show up very rarely typically and are all a nice addition for every spec. This game is chock full of unavoidable AoE attacks, avoidance is a pretty awesome stat to have.
Now, Leech. That would be very pointless for healing.
I hear Speed's all but worthless unless you somehow manage to get it on all your gear?
But yeah Avoidance is pretty great on anyone. It's like a narrower Versatility but less damage intake is less damage intake.

It's always a good time to mention possible shortcuts. I'm gonna go look.

I dont need to resub, I dont need, I dont need it.
Oh so I was 1 week off on my sanguine/overflowing expectation.
Yeah this week is kinda shit. I rely on kiting a lot to survive high Bolstering stacks, and you can't kite with Skittish. We run melee heavy as well. Even though I probably have some of the highest DPS/aggro generation of any tank, the fact that Skittish can just randomly drop is very annoying. I should be okay to facetank most +10 fortified trash pulls at least but Bolstering will make this rough.
But hey, look at it this way, at least skittish/necrotic can't exist.
