These issues with Memory of Lucid Dreams’ minor effect should be resolved in the next PTR build for Protection Paladin. Thanks for the bug report! (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

The next PTR build will have a change for both Brewmaster Monks and Guardian Druids with the Major power on Vision of Perfection.
Brewmaster Monks have had the Major effect changed to activate Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox, when it procs. It will summon it for 25/35% (rank1/rank2) of the talent’s duration.

Guardian Druids have had the Major effect changed to activate Incarnation: Guardian of Ursoc for 25/35% of the talent’s duration when it procs.
The Minor/passive effect is unchanged for both specs, it will still provide cooldown reduction to Fortifying Brew or Survival Instincts.
This should help the Essence feel a bit more noticeable and meaningful when it activates. Try it out in the next PTR build. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

  • Long quest objectives don’t have text wrapping.
  • Fall damage is equivalent to expected and verified values.
  • Broadcast text can be seen multiple times if multiple players interact with the same NPC.
  • WANTED signs do not have “!”, and are also not highlighted.
  • Player characters do not animate when looting/interacting with quest objects (e.g. collecting pumpkins).
  • Gnomes and Taurens are the correct size.

The last one has been carefully verified. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

    P.S. has anyone reported having to harvest same node/herb multiple times as a bug yet?
    Fun things I’ve heard that people have reported are getting critted while sitting and the warrior health regen.

    thats vanilla, it was always admitted vanilla was unfinished in a lot of ways, small dev team and time constraints back then but thats what they want. tbh cant see the attraction myself.

    I'm waiting for "Server maintenance on wednesday till 5pm is not a bug" announcement )))

    Keep the salt coming, things like these will really weed out those who actually DO want the classic with all it's flaws from those riding the... hypewave? Not sure what, but the other thing, in short.

    Ask the NO CHANGES crowd. I don't know what was so bad about AoE looting or improved graphics as well.

    it starts with minor changes and then opens up the discussion for more and more changes. It worked back in vanilla so you are save to not change anything.

    Not a bug but is there a threshold in regards to the graphics when it comes to presets? On a whim I wanted to see what preset 10 looked like but it seems to have very little changes when compared to lower presets unless I totally bottom it out to 1. Are they digging deep and disabling DX11/12 so it's reverting back to the old Ultra preset as the max setting?

    Keep to the argument of "Classic is a replication of Vanilla, warts and all" as the argument, it makes more sense, and is less ridiculous.
    #nochanges

    seriously any discussion about changes is redundant.

    Some ppl in the dev team said maybe in an interview while the lead developer said no. So who do we trust more in this case?

    #nOcHaNgeS herp derp.

    Blame those people who shouted down anything even remotely suggested (and still do for things that don't impact gameplay and would just be replicated with addons anyway). If not for their (now showing to be mostly wrong) desire to have a museum piece we might have actually gotten an improved game that would be more than just an official private server.

    LOL outside competitive Mythic raiding or hight durngons or Rbg or hight ratting arenas, that never happen, if you want to be competive you need to fill some criteria.

    Is the way life work dude, you cant have aceess to everythign with working for it, Essences right now on the ptr (outside some particular ones) are obtain doing the activity related to it, so you can more reward base on you skill

    Just admit you don't want classic. Admit it. You think live is sooooooo terrible but you want the mechanics of live in a vanilla environment...which in and of itself is no longer vanilla. You act like people who want no changes are the dumb ones... I personally don't care either way. You two bickering over this stuff is the exact reason why blizz didn't want to do this in the first place and I won't be surprised when those servers "die" fairly quickly

    The no changes crowd will sing another tune once it's actually released, if OSRS is anything to go by, we'll have a new "classic expansion" worth of content within 3 years.

    faggot: comes up and starts skinning my shit too

    Where is my aoe skinning blizz?

    This is just perference for me. The old ghost wolf model and my old troll model is what I know and love, I don't give two fucks about pixel count.

    Guess we'll see, plan on leveling as H Pal in classic and I was quite happy right clicking a mob and then talking in chat because I have no attacks (during stress test) I plan on playing the next stress test too and right clicking mobs and talking in chat again lol

    I seen the Essences on PTR and seen how you get them all I am saying is if your going to put skills in the game you do not put skills behind a gate in a MMORPG like WoW. I PvP a lot but i know people who never will pvp and never turned on warmode once in BFA and they never will and they never will get Speakers boon I all so know people who only do raid finder and will never get to do a Normal raid and never get Condensed Life-Force. I do not mind putting gear behind a gate like mythic dungeons and raids because that is gear. Skills on the other hand I have a problem with putting them behind a gate. Skills should not be behind a gate. That is just the way I fell about it. Because if you do not do that type of activity you are at a disadvantage because i PvP and you do not or I Raid and you do not. There is a very fine line that blizzard is crossing with this when they start to gate a skill and it will turn people off.
