Patch 6.2.4 Hotfixes - May 24: Leveling Hotfixes

Note from the developers:
Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve rolled out a series of hotfixes aimed at improving overall pacing and playability of the low-level (1-20) experience. We started by adding a number of modern conveniences to our low-level quest experience, and will continue to roll these improvements forward across other legacy content in the future. We’ve also made some improvements to the overall pace of combat at low levels: Due to the accumulated effect of years’ worth of max-level tuning adjustments, many classes were killing low-level enemies nearly instantaneously, even without heirloom gear or other advantages. A summary of the hotfixes follows:
Most quest bosses from level 1-20 should now be multitap and will scale their health with the numbers of players fighting them.
Added dynamic respawn behavior to most level 1-20 outdoor areas, so that spawns will be more readily available during times of high player traffic.
Players who die in low-level dungeons should now release to the entrance of the dungeon, consistent with the practice in dungeons from more recent expansions.
Level 1-10 enemy NPCs now deal slightly more damage.
Reduced the bonus to out-of-combat health regeneration that players receive when below level 20.
Reduced player damage at low levels to improve overall combat pacing. In general, Strength and Agility classes saw a larger reduction in damage than did casters. Damage dealt is unchanged from level 40 onwards.
We see these changes as the beginning, rather than an endpoint – much work remains to improve tuning and pacing of the old-world level-up experience, and our efforts will continue into Legion and beyond.

At launch there will be 4 Prestige Ranks and additional ranks will be added each season. (WarcraftDevs)
in #legion pvp will secondary stats be normalized too? If I want to do a mastery build in pvp will it just get flattened out?
Correct. The secondary stats on your gear will not matter in PvP instances. (WarcraftDevs)
Overwatch Live - Guides and More

Final Boss - Brewmaster Monk Spec Preview
Final Boss is back with a second round of spec previews.
My only complaint about the movie transmog things are: I wish they had more variety in what is offered. They look great (though the axe looks fairly plain). The shield is huge.
The low level changes look to be interesting.
Well I called it, the movie sucks. Reviews are coming out, it's a flop. Kotaku also has an article up right now about how shitty it is.
Why not see it and make up your own mind? How many movies have you seen that critics didnt like but you did? Or have you agreed with every critic review of everything you have seen?

You didn't call anything. Look at reviews from people who play the game and know the lore, they are loving it. It is always going to be opinion based but you've already made your decision that you don't like it.

Except fans totally loved it. There are reviews from European critics and they are lot more positive.
Then again, "a video game movie will suck" doesn't lead to a good review.
Just yesterday I was getting annoyed at 30 second long quest item cooldowns when it only takes 5 seconds to move between relevant locations to use it. Hopefully they'll reduce timers on some of those things, too.
The reviewer from The Wrap gave Dragonball: Evolution a good rating.... yea not going to pay attention to what he says, or any "critic". The people that actually saw it have been really positive, both fans of the games and those who have never played them.
Critics blast it, MMO Champ says actual gamers like it, then they link one dude from reddit. Are we so desperate about this movie's outcome we just can't admit it is bad? The toxicity in comments for the real reviews is also a good sign of what this community has become.

Are you so desperate to slam the movie that you failed to count? Three dudes from reddit, not one.
If you log in first as Horde, can you then not get the Alliance set (and vice versa)? Or does it change if you mail it to an Alliance toon?
Just logged in as Horde, then Alliance - got both sets.
However - if you are unsubbed like me, you are fucked, you can't get the transmog from the mail and have to sub within a month to get the stuff out of the mail before the mails get deleted.... ffs!

I think the first Horde toon you log into gets the Horde items and the first Alliance toon gets the Alliance items. You wouldn't be able to mail them cross faction, I think, because you can't use them cross faction.
