The Cataclysm Classic Pre-Expansion Patch Arrives 1 May
This Week in WoW: April 26, 2024
S4 Elite PVP Set - Not Updated to Reflect Winning Tier? PVP Community Forgotten????
MMO-Champion
glancing over all these previews on the front page makes me excited for next week.
it's looking to be a damn fun patch with a new mage tower to progress, a massive raid and end-of-expansion-secondary-stat-values make every spec more fun to play.
Champs? I think we might be in for a treat!

These days you're not allowed to be excited for anything WoW related.

Honestly I'll devour anything Old God.
I've not dove into spoilers overly much as a result this time. So I get to go in a little fresh. I'll have fun.
Looking forward to trying those visions though.

Holy crap, he's got three alts going to argue and agree with himself.
I'm not sure if it's a crappy attempt at social engineering or they are just lonely.

and only 42 weeks to max out your cloak IF you can get rank 15 in 1 week, if you can't then its 42 weeks+x to get the max 125 corruption resistance, sure u don't need to max it, N'zoth will go down to method without anyone having any resistance i bet but the fact there is 42 weeks of resistance upgrades is quite silly, by then time you hit 125 shadowlands will drop and boom u don't really get anytime with it maxed. should shorten this to 20 weeks imo get some time with it maxed.

Please don't spread misinformation Visions is nowhere close to being on par with Mage Tower.
You can be excited but new patch but don't try to hype it up by being hyperbolic.Honorary member of the Baine Fanclub, the only member really.

8.3 looks like as if they have no budget to create new world content anymore. The only new assets are in the raid.
Outside of that raid there is only world quests in reused regions, and the assaults. Everything else was forgotten. Be it crafting, pet battles, be it new pvp content.
In fights there are only already existent models, and no new boss mobs, exvept in the raid.
Raids, raids, raids. Dungeons, dungeons, dujngeons.
It is not "World of Warcraft" in 8.3, but "instanced content of warcraft".Last edited by shaggawoolin; 2020-01-10 at 06:13 AM.

It looks like garbage. More grind and more RNG...

There are new assets in the vale uldum and then stormwind and org as well as where ever the quest line is taking stuff. Originally Posted by shaggawoolin

No, there is no new questing region for world quests and world content in general anymore. Originally Posted by Daemos daemonium

Raiders get an all new raid with new assets and bosses, but the majority of players who play world content get reused uldum.

They already added 2 new areas which is about on par with other expacs. MOP added 1, WoD added 1, Legion technically added 3 but they were considered one piece really. And BFA added 2. Originally Posted by shaggawoolin

Well, actually it seems to me they massively lower effort for open world content. Originally Posted by Vampyrr

It should be the world content in "World of Warcraft" they focus on. And the raid should be derived from world assets. Not the other way around.
I know, blizzard can do better. They just have to reconsider their attitudes. 8.3 is going to flop massively, as there is just nothing new to do for people who do not play raids. The time gated cloak content is a joke. And world quests look like hasty implemented into regions never created for them.
It really seems as if they had taken existing regions, phased out the old NPCs, and just added new NPCs, some quests and some generic loveless implemented rewards to give people something unfun to do.
I wonder what happened blizzard forgot about their quality mission.Last edited by shaggawoolin; 2020-01-10 at 06:29 AM.
