Patch 4.3 Interview with Greg Street (Ghostcrawler)

[Drunkenfinn]

I must be a horrible person since I just got a huge nerdgasm over thinking about all the "AH-playas'" who have been stacking Pyrite Ore for months
A friend of mine has a Guild Bank full of Pyrite Ore... Oh, boy is he gonna be pissed, rofl!

The best joy is the joy from other peoples misfortunes! No denying it!

Also, Impetuous (Haomarush-EU) 6/7HC recruiting a godlike Rogue, plox? I'd reroll to my old Rogue-main if I wasnt next in line for Dragonwrath on my Shaman :P

[Goobaman]

Good job misreading a very simple post. Part of the reason there's a rogue only legendary coming up is because they are currently underpresented in PvE, while not being underpowered and in need of a significant buff, and knowing Blizzard, they don't want to make big changes mid-expansion, so they try to amend rogues' problems temporarily by giving them a legendary, and all melees in general by giving them a buff in PvE raids (thus not giving them an unneeded buff in PvP).

Lastly, as far as I know, they've always said legendaries will be for a select few number of classes, and not the other way around; making a legendary for one specific class is not far from that.

Good job not reading what Blizzard themselves said in their blue post regarding part of the reasoning. Go back and read the part where they say,and i quote for you, since your high horse may not allow for good reading visibility: We thought that Rogues had maybe felt a little bit not special in this expansion with all the high damage numbers that were being done by classes like Mages.

Might want to go back and go through the legendaries yourself instead of spouting uneducated nonsense, I'll help you out with one here: Tarecgosa- all spell casters: Priest, Mage, Warlock, Druid and Shaman. Five classes. Half of the playable classes. That is plenty far from one class.

I love the LFR system (so long as this one actually works, not like the last one) and the Trasnmog systems seems interesting though I'm not that thrilled with it. It's the fact that there is a legendary for just one class that is really annoying the hell out of me. It's never been done before and I don't think it should have been done. This is especially disrespectful to 10man groups who don't have a rogue (or indeed 25man groups who don't have a rogue).

[Perillica]

Goddammit, stop ruining my game, Blizzard.

I hate to break it to you, but do you really think the prices of rare gems will drop significantly when epic gems will be so rare and a whole new generation of raiders (LFR) will want gems for their new gear? I doubt it

Oh, and a full Gbank? Eight tabs? That's about 45k worth of ore, that's peanuts for 'AH-playas'

[Rioo]

5-mans dropping ~384-gear, talk about ruining all old raids. I mean t11 is still kinda relevant even if you've farmed ZA/ZG.

[jamme]

Can't fucking wait for 4.3 to come live!

[Banzubie]

Uhm... TENTACLES IN THE DEATHWING FIGHT? My old god senses are tingling.

[Nibi]

I am really ... i guess ass pained that Blizzard is doing a rogue only Legendary! this is ridiculous why couldn't they make it a dual wield weapon for anyone who can dual wield? Enhance Shamans always getting the shaft

[bowzer]

omg I hope they keep expertise off the daggers so hunters can have some fun with them too. Maybe throw us hunters a legendary bow too? Hunters are always getting the short end of the stick imo.

[Effbee]

What I don't get it why people let whatever class(es) a Legendary is for completely affect their gameplay experience, seemingly in a negative way...Can you do anything less? Can you suddenly not complete content?Its just 2 items out of a tier, whereas the DW fight/raid looks to be shaping up to be awesome and I am sure all the loot connected to it will be just as good

[Malthurius]

I love the rage in here, it makes me stronger. Anyway, I like what I hear, don't really care about the legendarys, and the raid finder not sharing lock outs with normal and heroics is great news. The new dungeons are sounding awesome, I was wondering when they'd bring back CoT dungeons. I hope Thrall isn't a total jack off in the escort dungeon though. OLD GODS!!! "Shakes fist"

[Pr0ev0lution]

bit of news (and screenshots) via eurogamer

on ptr in the coming weeks.
screenshots seem to feature the raid and 5 mans. also seem to show an old god (or at least something like the thing in twilight highlands)
an infinite dragon
sylvanas
and a downed horde looking gunship

[bewbew]

Now let's start speculating what an "echo of Sylvanas" is.

Go!

[Byrogan]

So the aspects in the DW fight are sort of like the watchers in the yogg fight, probably meaning there might be achievs like doing the DW fight with 2/1/0 aspects. Sounds really cool.

Tarecgosa is also the legendary that the most classes could use, compared to earlier legendaries. They've said they want the legendaries to be for a smaller group of classes/specs.

So you really mean you think that the reason they stated is the *ONLY* reason rogues are getting a legendary? And it's not even far from my original statement about it. Funny how you claim that I'm wrong and you're right and then basically confirm what I said.

[Rinoa]

I wonder what the "rogue-themed" proc will be, which will most likely require us to wear both daggers. I do hope it's something fantastic.

[Belial]

Obvious troll is obvious

[lolo855]

The 3000+ quests 1-60 revamp want a word with you.

Dislike the short 80-85 but stop lying about the amount of content Cataclysm offered. It's by far the most of any expansion.

yeah 3000+ quests is nice when you only have to complete like 250 to reach level 60. And sorry but doing all those quests at lvl 85 is just even more boring. Srry to disapoint you but this xpack still sucks content wise.

[Raivosoturi]

Okay, I'll have to admit: "Endtime", "Well of Eternity" and "Hour of Twilight" instances sound epic. I also have no problems with Rogue-only legendary, but I wish they'll do class-specific legendaries in that case more, with epic class-related stuff, and seeing as Feral druids keep moaning for their legendary, I'll guess we'll see Druid-only legendary in something Emerald Dream-related stuff. Also, paladin-only legendary please
