It's something we can consider for a later time, but right now the system is designed for proper heirloom items. (WarcraftDevs)

PvE
seems we got mythic ability in hc Blast Furnace? slagpool givin energy to boss? DJ says mythic only?
Slag Pool is used on all difficulties and affects Heart of the Mountain in phase 2. Dungeon Journal will reflect this in 6.1. (WarcraftDevs)

So Sigil of the Black Hand quest, if I use it and kill Blackhand first will the rest of the instance be available?
Yes, the quest unlocks the ability to go directly to Blackhand, and you can still do the rest afterwards. (WarcraftDevs)

PvP
Appreciate that folks still send bug reports to this account despite it no longer being a source of discussion about WoW. Very helpful, ty. (holinka)
You're a dev who uses this twitter for WoW. Until you stop anything and everything wow from this account, deal with it
I dont use this twitter for wow. (holinka)
Yeah, okay. The problem is you've used it in the past and you are the lead pvp dev... You can't just use twitter and then not
but that's what's happening. (holinka)
Not offended, but that and 'not using twitter for WoW anymore' makes it a bit uncertain.
Suggestions/feedback are fine. I just won't be replying with insight from this account. (holinka)

i have a question about Damping debuff in arena's, i played some with a friend after a few games we got a insta debuff, why?
In 2v2, if both teams have a healer, Dampening is applied immediately. (WarcraftDevs)

http://t.co/2BBrxGOsgh Tournament trinkets have the wrong stats. Also missing the new versatility trinket for tournament
They’ve been updated but the new versatility trinket will not be available for tournament in 6.1. (WarcraftDevs)

Computers - Setup of the Month
Each month or every 2 months, depending on the hardware evolution, we will post a couple of hardware setups for those of you who are thinking of upgrading their computer!

This month
The current SSD prices are trending slightly downward again over the past few months, with most SSDs under $0.50 per gigabyte when on sale.

Depending on how much you want to overclock, you may need to spend a bit more for a better CPU cooler like the NH-D14.

Unless you are doing a lot of video rendering or streaming, you do not need the 4790K and should spend that money elsewhere.

Make sure to keep your AMD and Nvidia drivers up to date.

Don't hesitate to post any feedback in the comments of that news post, and don't forget to visit the Computer Forum for any extra questions! If you are interested in Folding@home, take a look in our team's thread.

    There's a mistype up there, "Method downed The Blast Furnace today, pushing them to 9/10 bosses down. Paragon also managed to kill The Blast Furnace today."

    Still recommending Optical drives in builds.... lol. This is 2015 and nobody uses Optical drives since you can just download everything from the internet that is updated (AKA Drivers, programs, games and more). If you really need a Optical drive go and rip one out from an old computer but, don't waste $20 on something soo useless that can be better used in, I don't know, getting a 1TB HDD over a 500GB one.

    why talk about "world first" kills when you have a full day head start on EU guilds.

    world first should mean...least amount of time to down it.

    It has to be said: Most of the petulant comments hurled his way deserve dick replies.

    His responses to polite, well-considered comments (though rare) have been equally polite.

    It's just a reccomendation, the build isn't saying YOU MUST BUY IT. Yeah, they're not that useful anymore, but $20 is hardly breaking the bank and a situation may arise where you need to use one for some reason. Plus I still use mine to burn CDs for the car(despite that one obnoxious guy yelling about nobody has CD players in cars....lol, or watches TV lol.... or uses Desktops/Laptops....lol, I'm sure next it'll be noone doesn't use a driverless car), and I like to buy boxed copies where possible, if there's no direct download service for the game, gotta use the disc. If you don't want one, don't buy one.

    Because every game I have is on Stream? Oh right, no it isnt. Just because you do not have a need or desire for an optical drive does not mean that no one does.

    Also remember that a guide like this is not a mandatory list, it is just a recommendation that can be added to or taken away from to suit the needs of the person building the rig.
