Legion Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Mawnix]

Same, 43.12 mb for PTR. Wonder whats going on?

Probably just fixes.

[Insomlol]

I wonder if that cg error thingy is because of a certain setting or something?

Blizzard would have access to all this info im sure, and they should be able to pinpoint whats causing it?

[rcshaggy]

Kinda spoilers, but confirms a few changes...

as long as it fixes the lag

[Forde]

Anyone else in the beta not able to log in since the restart?

No problem here. Been playing all night.

[Kellorion]

Just gonna throw this out, im sure others may have thought this
Paladins who have Corrupted Ashbringer should have that as a special skin choice for their Ret Artifacts.

Also, like i put in the Horseman thread in Lore forum, Darion should get Shadowmourne.

And as was said in the Horseman thread, there's no reason for him to have it.

Why? The secret ashbringer appearance is a throwback to the corrupted ashbringer. The default color is even green.

There is a similar skin to the corrupted ashbringer for rets

and also this

[Kellorion]

True, but no reason not to. And since there is no official canon on who wields Shadowmourne, let Darion have it.

[Chickat]

Oh my I did not notice this with all the bugs. They buffed crafted items by a solid +10 ilvls. THey start at 815 and get to 860 (my 850 helm became 860). I will check once I can if you can add obliterum for even higher ilvl). This might be just high enough to make them worth crafting.

OK tried to apply more obliterum but it bounced. 860 is the new max it seems. This means it is somewhat better than normal raid gear (but ofc worse than heroic raid gear and probably higher levels of Mythic+). I can work with that; it certainly looks worthwhile and I can see an 860 item with favourable stats sell high on the AH too.

They will probably bounce it up to 870 or 875 in 7.1 like they did in WoD.

Any idea where to get low level relics from if I run out of levelling quests?

I'd say the opposite. Players who've obtained shadow mourn should be able to unlock a special appearance with a quest were their artifact and shadowmorne have a power of wills till they consume each other and create a fusion of both weapons. Gives a more shadowmourne less skully version of blood, and it transformed the frost or unholy swords into axes

[Nachtigal]

I'm confused why does the "environment detail" option in the graphics settings seem do to nothing in the beta? The game looks exactly the same at 10 as it does at 1. Any ideas why that's the case? With everything set to ultra + (rank 10) I get 60 fps in most areas, but in some areas it drops me down to 30 fps. But if I push my environment detail down to 1 and keep everything else totally maxed I get 60 fps everywhere. Why is this happening?

Same as in WoD beta as I remember, a lot of gfx options not doing much until the end and areas being very badly optimized. Getting stable 80-90FPS in Stormheim, Azsuna etc with everything on Ultra. Val'sharah and Suramar can break me down to 20-30.

The same as texture quality, glow etc, i think optimisation is the last thing that will be tuned before release.

Or they should just allow transmog of legendaries, there's no logical reason why that stupid rule exists.

We already have to deal with tons of people running around with the same artifact in legion. No need to add a dozen legendaries to that picture.

But you can transmog artifacts, what's the problem?
