Weapon cache emissary reward wrong for my spec

[Tizaksul]

Since Legion added these kind of activities, Emissary quests as well as the end of an Invasion/Assault quest have been Class specific rather than spec.

We’ve heard a lot of feedback about that so in Season 2 (coming real soon) this will be changing:

@Aerythlea-2611

In Season 2, emissary caches and similar rewards like Assault wrapper quests will award loot based on your spec (or loot spec, if chosen) instead of your class.

Standard world quests will continue to provide rewards based on class rather than spec, for two reasons:

1. You can see the exact reward up-front, and choose whether or not to do the content if the reward doesn’t interest you. This also can offer a way to shore up weak off-spec slots without worrying that you might miss out on a major upgrade.
2. If world quest rewards were spec-based, it might seem like the right behavior to cycle through your specs when evaluating potential rewards for every world quest, especially early in a tier, which seems like pretty annoying gameplay.

But neither of those reasons applies to something like emissaries or Assaults, where you don’t see what the reward will be until the end. And as you say, it can be frustrating if it’s for a spec you have no intention of playing, or it can simply feel like a bug. So we’re changing it.

Season 2 goes live on January 23 with the weekly reset
