So, no more info about the new customization at all? im more worried about those

You'll see more about it once it officially comes out for testing.

Idk, Blackrock Foundry might be as big.

Nah, it's not even close.

Customisation generally doesn't really need a whole lot of testing, though.

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

Oh speaking of customization.

3500+ textures total for customization now.

I've tried to solo the Legion raid in mythic but they are not open yet :/

[FlubberPuddy]

Forgive the scrub question, but the way I understood Ion's answer to the AoE caps issue is that basically specs that had their AoE abilities capped are going to have weaker mass-AoE, but instead will deal significantly more AoE damage in scenarios where the number of targets is less or equal to their AoE cap.

For instance:
- Spec A with uncapped AoE will deal 10k DPS to ALL targets.
- Spec B with capped AoE will deal 15k DPS to up to <cap> targets.

In other words, if I'm say a Ret Pally and my main AoE ability hits up to 5 targets, I will suck at big trash pulls in an instance, but I will be awesome if my group wants to do smaller pulls or at that boss fight where it's often a fight against the boss and for instance 3-4 adds.

Sorry for overexplaining, but... Is that correct?

That yes but they also said they will design content with those aoe caps in mind as well. They actually dislike the whole "degenerate" (literally Ion's words lol) gameplay of where people pull a whole bunch , line of sight, then aoe them all down.

They exist but from what I've read it takes so long to do it manually that wowhead are just waiting for the next builds where Blizzard has more properly anchored them in.

I don't have a Twitter, but could somebody ask Stiven or anybody at WoWhead if they could try to get some of the gear sets working on characters? (human male, probably)

Male Night Elf with markings?! Fucken finally!

Personally, I'm still waiting for the day when I can ditch the beard and not go SS3 and lose my eyebrows at the same time.

That's actually quite nice Thanks

He's streaming it live on Twitch right now (not your question but if you wanna ask him)

Stiven just confirmed nothing new for Allied Races (we already knew this but confirming again) in terms of character customization.

That's actually quite nice Thanks

You're welcome!

Lol, I just want them to have Paladins one day!

white worgens are awesome



those customization are being so good so far.

[Warning]

Art looks great as usual. But the class design is really worrying atm. I look at some streams and watch spells like fireblast, frostbolt, incinerate and shadowbolt doing like 2-3% of a players health. How does that ever go live? Spells need to be impactful, otherwise there's no point adding them cause they'll just feel terrible. Loads of talents that are bad in BFA such as shadowburn and soulfire and should've been changed during BFA's beta are still unchanged in Shadowlands. It just really turns me off the game seeing these things unaddressed. As it stands my hype for shadowlands is 0 and I'll probably just wait for TBC, the fundamentals are just so much better there.

Balancing comes last in development...

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

Balance pass is usually one of the last things they do. Part of why they wanted to have all the changes in now is so they can get balance feedback, not "missing skill" feedback.
