Legion Pre-Expansion Patch Notes

Can gnomes be hunter in prepatch?

they can certainly be

"Newly obtained salvage from the Salvage Yard no longer contains equippable items. Salvage obtained from before the patch remains unaffected."
Does the change to the salvage yard mean you can't optain the new textured class gear like (old dungeon/tier1 gear with new textures)?

blizzard way.

they always do thing like that to prevent player stocking something before expansion and profiting from it, in this case, you will not be able to make a fortune selling all the item from salvage to the auction house ^^

Re: the item set bonuses from old stuff being turned off.

Does that include my apron, frying pan, and rolling pin (or whatever they were...) from the Ironpaws? Combined altogether, they gave a +20 to cooking.

" Normalized gold from Legacy raids prior to Warlords of Draenor. Heroic difficulty Cataclysm Raids now award less gold than before, while raids from Mists of Pandaria and Wrath of the Lich King will now award more gold. "

Knowing Blizzard it'll be a straight 50% nerf to Cataclysm raids and as for the buffs odds are all they'll do is increase gold from 25g to 30g from MoP raids and think they've done us a favour, farming old raids was my main source of income, I don't want to buy WoW tokens or play the auction house so this nerf is a blow to me. Can anyone confirm the actual gold changes for wrath and mop raids?

well they said that mop raid will have an increase in gold, no nerf there.. and i think that MoP25man raid-solo farming will be the new cataclysm25hm gold farming

and 25g by boss is in normal mode, if they do like they did for cataclysm, that will certainly be 125g by boss in 25hm + a shitload of item to sold, i imagine that will be like cataclysm , arund 1600-2200 gold by MoP raid in 25hm

Finally. Content!

They've nerfed the vendor price of MoP items as well, no one seems to know how they've buffed the gold from MoP raids yet, it used to be 25g a boss I doubt it's anything higher than 50g knowing Blizzard, MoP raids won't be as lucrative as cata raids were.

Especially given how some MoP raids have brick wall mechanics like Amber Shaper you'll need crazy ass burst to kill him and his add before he changes you into a monstrosity and instantly kills you.

"Set bonuses for item sets from expansions prior to Warlords of Draenor have been deactivated, though the text describing their former function still remains."

Does this mean that I get to vendor all of my fun timewalking gear now? I'll be a very sad panda.

[Dalanar]

Anyone know what will happen with the PVP gear from all 3 WOD seasons? Will it be purchasable with gold or the new marks? Not so interested in the rating requirements gear (that's usually removed from memory at the end of each season?)

Thanks.

Quick question, in this pre-expension mount will still drop mythic archimonde ?

Yes until Legions release which it'll be changed to a rare drop.

[SteveRocks]

seeing as proving grounds is being removed in legion you wont be able to earn any achievements or titles from it anymore.

Source? I don't think this is true at all.

[gamgee76]

Ahh patch day tears!!! yum!

[Pyrans]

I did some 25 heroic ToT on beta today and the bosses dropped around 55g + items worth 15-50g, tier tokens are 50g. 6 bosses was around 1200g

Not unless you have gear with more gem slots to put on. Those gems slots will be even more important now.

I'll go on in a sec and kill a boss or two in 25H in each expansion.

As someone with 11 alts... this makes me nervous. Nervous not in the "OMG THE ARE GOING TO FUCK IT ALL UP" -- just nervous in the "I'm not going to have everything memorized anymore" and my information will require updating. As I've gotten older I've found this more difficult to keep up with. Strange.

"Normalized gold from Legacy raids prior to Warlords of Draenor. Heroic difficulty Cataclysm Raids now award less gold than before, while raids from Mists of Pandaria and Wrath of the Lich King will now award more gold."

Wait this is true ? They buffed Pandaria and Lich King ? I know they nerfed Cata...

ya cata bosses drop about 60g now.

[JaceDraccus]

Blizz really has no idea how to handle Talent Specializations... it is called a "Specialization" for a reason. First they take away all customization when they removed talent trees and now they have removed any specialization by removing the specializations lol.

Players: "We want tri-spec!"
Blizzard: " No... on second thoughts, here, now you can use any spec whenever you want."
Players: "ZOMG now there's no specialisations!"

[gutnbrg]

anyone know what Inscription is going to be good for now that glyphs are being removed?

[Kataroku]

Additionally, transmogrifications can now be associated with your current specialization. Your outfit automatically changes when switching specializations if you so desire.

Wow, they actually listened... Now I can have perfectly-matched items regardless of spec! ...Once flying becomes available of course.
