Upcoming Feral Changes II, Blizzcast 6, Blue posts

you know ... after all the game might be about "skill" at some point, and not more about "equip"

this means that some of those 7 days raiding guild will start to fall behind those guilds that
raid only 2 or 3 days but have skill!

i actually like it ... problem is that (at the moment) all WotLK encounters are tank&spank
if you have a quite good equip ... so skill is not needed for those anyway ... that is a bigger problem in my eyes
i miss encounters like in the Shadowlab, etc.

That Sylvanas model, did he meant the current one or is there an even newer model coming? :P

He meant, the current model is good. But they're making a new and better kustom (yes, I've got a spell checker) made one.

Purely cosmetic, but I'm a toothpick :P

When i read that interview to me it all sounded like it was pre-wotlk launch so he probably meant the old model.

I wish I could post in the thread on the Blizzard forum, but without an English account... :

Looks like we're screwed in terms of armor itemization in the long run. The other tank classes scale better with Defense and the like, while we HAVE to rely on dodge and armor which are both watered down due to diminished return. We neither have the ability to block nor parry.

My suggestion (which I can't post on that thread) would be a conversation of offensive into defensive, just like Str increases the block value. After all, they want us to wear Rogue items while tanking, right? However, neither increasing armor nor dodge would do the trick due to DR and parry/block are out of the picture. So, what's left?

Protector of the Pack

Aside from the 12% damage reduction, make it scale with AP. That way, we would get another stat (AP) to increase our defensive capability aside from armor and dodge, plus, it would buff our magic damage reduction.

I am curious too if they refer to this as the current model, or the one in between with her being a normal blood elf female model with the cryptstalker armor on and banshee elf skin.

I have come to the conclusion that I really dont like the gear homogenization going on. I thought at first that it wont be so bad, you will still have clear healer gear, clear DPS gear, and clear tank gear. After these changes go through, this is not really the case... I will have a rogue set and I will have a mage set, except I am a druid. I liked the requirement of having a different set for whichever spec I wanted to play as, I liked having to get a tank staff similar to how warriors have to get a 1h/shield if they want to tank instead of just a 2 hander.

You know what else I liked? I liked being able to chug mana pots as a healer. I liked having to worry less about mana. Maybe its just because I am still mostly T6, but in 10 man naxx on sapphiron and KT I was going oom... even with using a mana pot with an alchemists stone... thats not really fun or challenging, thats frustrating.

I kinda wanna see a blue post about shaman survivability.


anyway.. having loads of fun on my warrior! (which was retired through BC cause of boringness).

this is failure put in plain text:

Tanking in WotLK. The goal is roughly equivalent. The goal is not identical.

TwentyFifthNovember does not have a single druid, paladin or dk tank. All they have is prot warriors. This is going just like arena where some classes are completely missing from high rated teams

[Topcraft]

You're the comparing the raid set up of the best guild in the world to 'the rest'? Not every one can afford to picky. Sure some guilds will. I'm sure they all have their reasons though.

[Zherod]

maybe coz rage+shield=win?
