Tides of Vengeance Season 2 - Live Developer Q&A

[Mikerz]

they are actually reworking an expansion key feature mid expansion.

what a time to be alive.

The amount of feedback payed off

[oathy]

shows how crazy things are at the moment
just doing the emissary quests and got 420 titanforged gloves as the reward.

[Bouncing]

I would like to know why Alliance have 30% of bonus and one quest of 400 ilvl item and horde doesn't have it? Why are they more special than us?

[Biggles Worth]

How does he manage to turn a 15 word answer to a 1000 word essay ? Just how?

Yeah, he makes an audio book out of yes or no answers. We don't need to know the whys, just get shit done correctly.

well yeah because people hated it so I don't see where this is going

[Evilmoo]

Complete overhauls of a spec (such as rotation and resource alterations) will most likely not happen in a patch and have to wait for a new expansion.

lel
well, goodbye MM hunters.

[Firebeast]

They really should stop doing these all together. They look more ridiculous each time and honestly have no clue what the players want

[Vapo]

What a joke of an Q&A, half of questions are dodged other half have no sound logic behind them. Upgrading with valor making new gear irrelevant but Titanforge not? lmao fuck logic.

Meh. They respond to questions that people have. They don't answer the "difficult" questions. They never do, that's not what these Q&As are for, and people are always so surprised and upset about it. These are supposed to be for the casual players that don't visit mmo champ.
MMO Champ gives us the data mined info that we aren't supposed to see so nothing comes as a surprise to us. I can't remember seeing the allied race release info anywhere except blizzcon, here, and the one recent blue post. If you don't visit mmo champs or other news consolidating sites, you probably did not know about the release dates.

Another poster summed it up perfectly
Ion still cant escape the fact he's a former lawyer so one sentence becomes a paragraph still saying very little.
the neck rework I suspect will be like the legion weapon tree.

I see the difference in the 2 (one guaranteed one random) but i really hate titanforging. It's a dumb system that undermines progressing through current content. I think that valor tokens should be used to buy gear up to 5 ilvls under current normal raid. Then can be used to upgrade that same gear 5-10 ilvls at a time. Would make things that much smoother. Also, replace AP on bonus rolls with valor and its a great system.

i just want flying...the expansion has been out for close to six months...it's time to add pathfinder part 2 already

What would they add with part 2? There's no new content
Would be nice to finish part 1, have flying. part 2 in a new zone, finish, have flying there. part 3 same thing etc.
Breaking up pathfinder is just Blizzard being too stubborn to give in to any other way but their way.
Flying has never been a big deal to me, but if you're gonna unlock it EVENTUALLY, it should be sooner rather than later

Neither does the players. Get 100 players together you'll end up with 200 demands in which can not exist in same game.

[dope_danny]

Well thats thoroughly uninteresting.

Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?

Law school.

Please do tell how you'd improve it.

He already did - fire Ion and Lore.

[Smeller]

Oh no, too many Alliance players have used warmode. Kill it, kill it with fire, so they'll leave.

[Toby451]

Well thats thoroughly uninteresting.

There was plenty of good stuff in there. You just chose to ignore it with your hate vision goggles on.

[Toppy]

This isnt really a criticism, but, what was the point of this interview? It just seems like a big "We hear you but we feel no need for any changes" and is pretty much a repeat of the last half dozen QA.
