The RAGE!

[Cempa]

The rage on the forums in almost every class forum (except warriors they seem to be really happy because everything they look at dies lool) is insane ..

Is there any one here who is actually happy? I know you warriors will not speak up because you don't want to get nurfed lool

What Blizz did I think may finally push subs down and we might actually see 2017 as the year the game past its peak.

[Livingstone]

I'll say that I'm happy and playing warrior!

Haven't tested fury spec, but I gotta say that I'm actually happy with the amount of things to mash if you play as arms. That's a very good thing imo because I was super bored with having to press only 3-4 buttons the entire expansion.

Also, didn't get a chance to test prot spec yet in some dungeon but hopefully will today, though from what I saw, it shouldn't be that much different than what it was prior to prepatch. Main thing that changed is the Shield Barrier -> Ignore Pain from what I can tell and less rage gen on revenge, but that should be taken care off with rage gain from dmg taken.

Not saying the balance won't be abysmal at 110, i'm sure it will be, but it's still pointless to cry during the prepatch, this happens every expansion.

The amount of QQ on the official forums is actually pretty sad but again we're at a day in age that people QQ endlessly about dumb crap, I've actually enjoyed the classes that I've been playing on since 7.0

Enhancement, Ret, Survival and Outlaw have been a blast

[Ulfric Trumpcloak]

Warriors are not only fun, but arms is op. What's not to like?

[GodEmperor]

I'm really happy with Unholy, Frost Mage (Low damage but I still love it), Aff, demo and Fury.
My friend was really happy with Rdruid and Hpally.

I did not like FDK. Felt it was boring.

People just whine whine all day. Right now we're just trying out the mechanics and not Damage since it's only going to be balanced for 3s and RBGs at level 110.

I'm actually loving 7.0, so many fun new classes. I main warrior, and I've been having a blast. Outlaw, Frost dk, Enhance, Fury are my go-to specs.

[Al Gorefiend]

I'm liking Enhancement and Resto shaman! Enhance feels like I can jump right into the action without having to hide behind my cooldown timers. Resto feels like I can perform better during Oshit moments.

Priest is ridiculously bad though on all specs. Avoid PvP as a Priest

[Rorke]

Nah Arms sucks compared to WoD Arms. Legion Arms is basically the braindead cousin of MoP Arms. It's just spam a bunch of buttons that all feel like they do the same thing while some of them you never use unless there's nothing else to do.

RiP Execute feeling like Execute. Rip WoD Arms.

only tried out assassination and unholy in pvp so far.. assa felt pretty squishy and it was so many damn dwarfs everytime.. but the playstyle is fun
unholy was pretty fun aswell but i felt like it was mostly fluff damage

Dwarves are looking pretty strong in PvP right now. Capable of gimping quite a few class' setups.

yes indeed.

[Krusza]

It's a pre-patch and people are complaining. What a surprise.

I'm loving it. I spent a lot of time on beta and I loved it even more.

Of course people are going to complain, their entire spec has been redesigned. They don't sit there and try to figure things out, they just attempt to PvP without any knowledge of their new spec and fail, then proceed to complain on the forums.

Some specs like UH DK require artifacts to be interesting. Some specs require PvP talents.

Yes, there's less abilities (actually as a feral, I have a few more) but the spec redesigns added more depth in most cases, at least with the PvP talents and artifacts. Obviously, it's not the case for every spec, but a good proportion.

Casters have to actually cast again, there's less cooldown stacking mongoloid gameplay, seasons have been doubled to supposedly limit inflation and there's normalized stats to allow for stat tuning separately.

This is speaking from the perspective of 3s wargames on beta by the way, not duels.

as a full time priest healing in bgs feels like pissing in the wind. disc got turned into some strange thing and healing as a holy would actually be not thaaaaat bad if the heals would be abyssmal weak. (5% max-hp hps when spamming flash heal? wls heal more). was actually the first time in years that I rage quit a bg.
it's one thing if I die because the holy toolbox is ridiculous bad in pvp (you need to cast and no strong instant heal like shield on short cd). but if I cant even keep someone alive there is literally no point.

Casters have to actually cast again

here is a question: how much fun do you think is casting when a dd with a 15s cd kick is on you and you get locked out of everything for 6 seconds? take a wild guess.

[Lynxx89]

I am pretty happy with the feral changes. You cant look at numbers in Pre-patch. Everything is balanced for the next lvl cap. That being said DH has been the only class I have tested that keeps my attention other than feral. So my plan is to roll DH after 10 years of feral. Basically just for a change of pace. I am strictly looking at playstyle not numbers. I can see DH having more raid utility than my feral and I enjoy being a big help to the raid.

Not sure if you've ever heard of this thing called fakecasting and cross CC.

So.. Yes I main a warrior, but I was also very active on alpha (and beta) forum regarding what I wanted - everything constructive. I also play other classes , and tbh every class I viable when you figur out how to play them - ex. If you play frost dk with same priority as 6.x , yes you will have a bad time. Same goes for most spec and classes really. Different times = different priority.
I love the changes - perhaps it is just because I know stuff gonna be with artifact .. Can't tell. But non the less I enjoy pre patch a lot

[Rorke]

The one thing I'll say positive about the pre patch and Legion on beta in general is that since they've pruned every classes defensives people actually fucking die if they play stupid and get caught into bad situations. I was getting real sick of endlessly attacking someone through their multiple layers of defensive cds only for them to just escape anyway and waste my time. Part of the problem with the game was how many outs every class had where it just became a cd based game.

The bad thing about this though is that it does lower skill cap. With less defensive cds there's less control an individual player has over a situation. So idk.

fakecasting

2 things can happen: a) you get silenced by the kickbot faster than you can react or b) you just silenced yourself for 4 instead of 6 seconds. good job.

[ItachiZaku]

I enjoyed Survival, I wasn't able to even get into Ashran or AV on my other toons.
