BRD nerfs are pathetic

B) they designed the dungeon with some sort of a plan and suddenly didn’t have the time to react to PTR testing with as much attention as it maybe needed (sounds familiar? )

That doesn’t explain why this nerf, though.

The battles were entirely do-able already. How much easier did this make them?

I have a bee in my bonnet about that Ravenous Prideling. I do see other strats, not using it, appearing now, and I’m going to take some time over the weekend having a look at them. It might have been very clever of the devs to have required some pets earned from the earlier dungeons. Your own use of Tricorne is an example of how this dungeon might have satisfyingly brought together some niche abilities of pets we earned along the way. But that crit buff is otherwise just not the right thing for a dungeon, unless it was a reference to an earlier one in the chain. If they had removed that, I would have applauded. Even so, that should have been done before going live, not after a week.

So I’m still not seeing the point.

so i have no clue how it is for alliance but on horde side the starting quests for the BfA pet dungeons are somewhere where the sun never shines and i know that there are casual pet battlers who still aren’t aware of this corner in dazar’alor that is made for pet battle content.

Great minds thinking alike:

@Gráinne-earthen-ring

WHY ARE THE PET DUNGEONS SUCH A SECRET?

There is nothing in-game that tells anyone to go look. Yes, if course, if you follow the third-party news and websites, you know all about it. It was probably mentioned on the launcher at some stage in the beta, but who looks at ads in the launcher?

For people who have completed WC, why isn’t there a pop-up quest to go see Breanni for Deadmines? and so on?

Or at least a visible questgiver in an area people have a chance of seeing at least once during the expansion?

Both the Alliance and Horde pet-shop places in BfA are hidden well enough to merit the attention of the Secret-Finding Discord. I have been to the one in Boralus a couple of times, when I knew I wanted something from it, but even though I know roughly where it is, I swear it still takes me 5 minutes to find it every time. Despite having Horde characters, I couldn’t do even that in Dazar’alor. I’ve been there maybe once? and needed Wowhead comments to guide me.

I always go Dala->Breanni, because finding either pet shop in BfA feels like it takes longer than the dungeon.

@Snætch-malfurion

i blame the people for avoiding to think for themselve and instantly googling for a cookie-cutter approach

And do you also blame the people who make and post strats enabling those who do not want to think for themselves, beyond pressing “A” repeatedly?
