  • Overview - Kilrogg's Visions of Death transports players to the moment of their doom. The more demons a player kills during this phase, the greater stacks of Undying Resolve they receive. Failure to send anyone to this phase results in raid damage. As the fight progresses, Kilrogg calls for his clansmen to drink the fel blood within the chamber. If these Salivating Bloodthirsters reach the blood, they transform into Hulking Terrors.
    • Damage Dealers -
      • Blood Globules that reach Kilrogg Deadeye damage the raid.

      • Demonic Possession - Fel Blood courses through your veins, binding your will to The Burning Legion!
    • Shred Armor - The caster's next attack shreds the target's armor for great Physical damage. Victims of this attack are affected with Shredded Armor.

.it's like man, I did this entire quest line, collected all this stuff, and got my ring! For someone else to use.
Honest question: Is the act of clicking the ring the fun part to you? Or the buff you get, the gameplay impact, & coordination? (Celestalon)

Not a fan of a Shared On-Use effect for the legendary, too many potential problems with optimization/mistakes.
The range of initial reactions is interesting; another view is that this offers control in lieu of being beholden to RNG. (WatcherDev)

I laughed when I read #PruneHolinka (holinka)

With 6.2, could all Arenas be made available to lower level players? They can play all BGs since WoD but not all Arenas.
which ones aren't available now? (holinka)

Patch 6.2 - Follower Cap Remains 675
It looks like Naval missions will be the new progression in Patch 6.2, as your followers will remain capped at 675.

    Retarded. i yearn for pantheon. If that game jumps the shark as well I think it's finally time to hang up the genre. It's no longer a hobby, it's a game like the rest, just as welcoming to remedials and children and console gamers. great for their pocket book just like the wii was... But see what eventually happened to the wii? Once the kid gamers tire they'll have alienated all the mmorpg gamers and be left in the samw boat Nintendo is. Just like the rest of the devs that decided to let greed govern and turned a remarkable genre full of escapism into an action game with chat component.

    In other words, they want more time to finish the next expac so they can launch it around then.

    Get ready for WoD part 2, with the same kind of story set in the same timeline.

    And yes, the shared on use is super dumb. They'll balance around it of course, yet forget just how many jacktards play wow and how often it will go to waste no doubt. That one guy will no doubt want to use it around "his" cooldowns which will leave you with an unoptimal buff.

    I struggle to understand how the heck this was even conceived let alone considered.

    The prior design while almost as bad was preferable imo. Atleast it added a comp dynamic.

    Not true. Universal Pictures just shifted around a bunch of their movie premier dates. They pushed back Warcraft, Pacific Rim 2, and The Mummy so that they're all going to be summer releases.

    They specifically shifted Warcraft into the summer (larger audience) and put it up against three other movies that probably won't preform well in box office, whereas if they kept the March release date it was going to run up against Batman v Superman, which was just moved up to March 25 by Warner Bros.

    They definitely have that feel of "we don't care what you or anyone else thinks, we aren't going to change it no matter what".

    I agree that it's the first delay only. I guess that if they want a summer release, we'll see it on summer 2017.

    I'm not surprised at all.

    The new Fast and the Furious movie would like to disagree with you. It made over 1 Billion dollars in less then 3 weeks and it's not a summer movie.
    Hello, we're in April now when Fast 7 was released plus the box office stats are a couple of factors. The actor's death, people have gone to re-watch it simply for the ending. I know a person who's been three times already and of course because its part of a successful franchise.

    American Sniper (set release records for January) says hi.
    If you'd like to re-read my post I said during the March window of the year..

    You know likes of Wrath / Clash of the Titans, Oblivion, John Carter & other action movies bombed or just made their budget back.

    for a film that comes from a game, summer is not the best option..

    all real gamers know, summer is bad for gaming..

    Universal liking the movie and making it a summer release is a good thing. They will probably spend more promoting the movie than would have been done with the Spring release.

    those movies didn't do well at the box office because they sucked, not because of release date. Of the ones you listed, Oblivion was the 'best' and it still wasn't a fan favorite. John Carter has a HUGE book-based fandom, but it was just awful, and I don't think there are plans to make any of the rest of the series into movies. CLASH of the Titans did well enough to warrant a sequel, but both could have been much better.

    Just thought of an idea for the ring. Each player activates their own ring, but the buff is increased based on how many other players also have the buff at the same time. That way it's a group buff that everyone has some control and adds another layer of cooperation.

    Ok ...time to start selling all those extra follower enhancements. I really feel this expansion started with a bang and immediately started going down the drain. Also ...still no flying, wtf!

    the thing is they got those release dates because the studio did not track the movie to do very well. If you don't know studios hire professional marketers to track the buzz and reception of their trailers and stuff to see how a movie will do and if they feel it will underperform then they will throw it into the deadzone period of jan, feb, and march.

    Hi. I am a Warrior. I am a tank. I wear plate. WHY THE F IS VERSATILITY ON ALL PLATE TANK GEAR!? Bonus Armor, Mastery. If you are going to make items geared for a class, then maybe you should add the stat they value more and not say, "Well make you think of what gear you should wear is funner than get item X." No cowboy, I will put on my + bonus armor stat item versus a versatility item.

    I didn't even know the original release date was in March.. So this is no big deal to me, as much as I am waiting for the Warcraft movie I am waiting for the Star Wars movie more.. So I am not even thinking of the Warcraft movie at all until after Star Wars

    Although true they all sucked, if you've followed the box office as much as I have over the years you'll find there is actually a systematic order to release dates. Its not a case of we'll stick it there because we'll be done by then and it'll be ready for the world to see.

    Movies are constantly changing release dates and you'll find studios often shift them about in their release schedule and there are certain months of the year which are basically considered a boneyard for movies and March is one of those months.
