    instead of nerfing the racial just make the bleeds in this one raid not removed by it.. would make more sense.

    3 guilds x 20 characters x 30 euro's. im sure a 1000 euro's just from faction changes alone in a few days means noithing to blizzard

    Absolutely, but then again I don't see why people would transfer for that in the first place. They massively reduced the XP needed recently and you still need to finish the storyline, so what is the point of dinging 60 earlier and then having to quest anyway? Just for alts, where it still isn't clear if the skip-mode is even worth it? :/

    Half the bleeds (usually on non-vampire bosses) in there only exist to make stuff like the kyrian potion valuable to begin with. It would be super weird to just exclude the dwarven racial, especially since alliance needs any impetus, no matter how small, to prevent their raiding scene from disintegrating (rapidly). Unless they changed it many of them have in-encounter methods of removal, the potion/skill would just be massively more efficient.

    You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.

    Many pick factions based on recruitment pool, which is a positive feedback loop of 1 faction being stacked.

    I'd rather see the bleeds in the raid changed vs changing a racial though... assuming either happens. I'm ok with leaving as is.

    That's why I said tanks going DI with everyone else going normal. The perks for DI makes more sense for tanks than a normal dwarf.

    im seeing new opportunities for blizzard here to squeeze the tryhards for their money. every new raid has a new mechanic that can be countered by a racial . first the jaina troll thing now this.

    Do people honestly think think blizzard didn't take into account stoneform when making the bleed? They aren't going to put it on a shared cd with kyrian vial, or make it not dispell these bleeds. For such a small portion of the player base, making a temporary change, they aren't going to screw over a large chunk of their customers who play dwarf normally. And I also find it funny that so many people are bitching about Alliance having a top tier racial for one raid, when horde racials have been superior for raiding for 1 1/2 decades.

    Would be nice if all the raids in Shadowlands catered to the Alliance racials for once. Might make the top 100 leaderboards that tiny bit more even.

    Remember how that worked for 8.3 when the alliance had the overwhelming majority of better racials (mathematically, not based on Feelscraft)?

    If the Bleeds are super big important parts of the fight I'm sure they'll just not be removable by vial/stoneform.

    If they're not, then w/e.

    Not to mention paladins are going to be in extra demand if the bleed is a big deal. Being able to quick bop it off will be great.

    bring out your luffas people. for me it is mind blowing how far these people go just for 1 boss.
    some people have too much free time and money.

    good luck to them with the race.

    I'd bet money that the bleed removal gets nerfed 2 days before mythic drops.

    m8 WoW makes near enough to $270 million a quarter, blizzard doesn't care about a thousand euro coins.
    Tonight for me is a special day. I want to go outside of the house of the girl I like with a gasoline barrel and write her name on the road and set it on fire and tell her to get out too see it (is this illegal)?

    Not sure what are you talking about. Normal dwarves SIM better than all specs, including tanks. We are talking about world first racing guild. Tank dps matters as much as everyone's else's. Not to mention I don't see why dark Iron would be better for tank role anyway. 1% constant physical reduction Vs 10% during stone form isn't a clear winner.

    Well my goblin still can't use rocket jump during heroic leap or when under slow fall effect, which was changed during kiljeaden shenanigans, so I wouldn't be so sure about that.

    The problem with that is you're then explicitly removing one of the passive benefits of playing a Dwarf. This would make sense if we simply removed everyone's racial abilities, but to specifically make changes to just make Dwarves not have an advantage would be a bad change.

    Don't expect anything to change, when blood elf racial was nerfed for m+ did people swap back to alliance? Nope. They use Nelfs in MDI tournament realm and stay horde on live. Same thing with warmode bonus, Limit swapped for a week to alliance, got their bonus item, and swapped back. Meanwhile horde complained so much that weekly reward was nerfed to uselessness in less than 2 weeks.

    I wonder how long they're gonna pretend this is 2 faction game while nearly every region gravitates towards not "faction vs faction" but "everyone vs nobody" divide.
