How about you guys hotfix your attitude towards the people that got their guildbank deleted. Bug fix your empathy levels and delete your corporate slimyness of ignoring us and hoping it goes away.

What makes it even more disturbing, it wouldn’t cost you a thing at all to compensate people, after all its just unlimited digital items… but you rather show us the door… after twenty years.

What she said.

I’m checking patch notes in apparently false hopes that you finally re-tune the numbers for MM hunter to be viable again. Not to mention PvP.

Already wondered why I randomly died. That explains…

But overall the visuals should be much less affected by terrain differences. AoE on stairs? You’ll have to estimate where it all ends. A minor bump? Yep, visuals are now broken halfway through.

This isn’t really limited to Mists and Acid Expulsion.

86

Same here.

87

Can you tune BM hunters in PvP already? Before even more people quit your game?

88

Some specs are still too strong (resp. too weak) in M+. Pls fix.

When will you guys care about affliction as much as destruction and demonology?..
As with almost every Xpac since Legion, you don’t care much about it, giving affliction small buffs or giving buffs then removing them in record time…
No way you were expecting that buffing dots would have an impact, compared to buffing shard spending abilities for the other 2 specs.

91

The Druid change should be Wildpower Surges no? Wildshape mastery has nothing to do with Ferocious bite or Mangle.

Why I cannot report blizzard’s messages for trolling?

Almost month has passed since launch of this fiasco of a patch, countless bugs roam the game (including such serious as frontal / swirls animation delays that cause deaths in m+ and thus ruin timers) class balance is in abysmal state (MM hunter, Brewmaster Monk, Holy priest and couple of other specs are unviable in m+, while ret pala, prot pala, enh shaman and some other specs are overpowered).

No acknowledge of problems on your side and you do these tiny, meaningless to majority of players changes. Isn’t that a trolling?

  • The removal of the buff/debuff limit
  • Dual specs

This hasn’t actually happened, not even after the reset.

Will there be a fix for the mages who “learned” their tome of polymorph: Mosswool before the hotfix and who then lost the ability to cast it as its no longer in our spell books?
