Still waiting for tank balance, don’t make me re roll to monk because of community perception and toxicity.
Justice for protection paladin 
Stupid thing is you have tanks among same ranks as brew monk but only about 1 key lower then rest, sometimes 2 but at lower keys people are like oh no off meta bad insert toxic comment re roll brew tank, because community wants to be carried for free, damn i wish i played tank during dragonflight i heard tanks where OP

So when is mage glacial spike getting sorted out?
You nerfed it for no reason what so ever.
Aside from a very lame excuse about it being hard to find frostbolt in the spellbook, something no mage has ever had a issue with or reqeusted to be “fixed” and Im saying the fixed part ironically just to be clear.

- Fixed Housefloors, they should now stay the way, you set them
- Tucked the pointer for the rotational tool back to the circle. (Sorry for that, seems he wanted to be a while alone out there.)
Interface Changes
- We convinced the Gryphons on the main bar to stay hidden, when they’re told to.
… when?
(Growls in Brann: “I want me Flagstone back, ye Monsters.”)
This bug would happen in the Mogu’shan Palace timewalking dungeon as well. During the Trial of the King fight Kuai the Brute casts a shockwave skill that would cause a server disconnect. Upon logging back in the affected player would not be able to strafe and jump, similar to what happened in the Shadow Enclave delve.
Has this also been fixed?

Still no fix for HPal broken beacons… Our main mechanics is not working. We’re missing a huge chunk of heal.

So can I assume that the lack of an answer to my question means that this bug has not been fixed yet?
I thought you guys said you’d be more transparent and increase your communication with your PAYING CUSTOMERS. Because that’s what we are. PAYING CUSTOMERS. We pay you money to play this game. The least you can do to alleviate my buyers remorse is to answer my question. Has this bug been fixed? Yes or no?
At the very least just giving us an update to let us know this bugfix is actively being worked on and how the work has been progressing would be greatly appreciated.
Mists of Pandaria timewalking is my personal favorite. The dungeons are relatively short and straightforward, making them perfect for leveling alts and farming timewalking currency. I also think they are very fun. I like the bosses and the overall dungeon design. The 12.0.5 update ruined this experience for me and I’m not happy. I’d have been playing the game every single day just for this, which would have looked great on your engagement metrics. I thought you guys cared about those metrics so much.So can you please provide us an update on this game breaking bug?
I’m going to throw you a bone here. I said on other threads that my game time is close to running out (which is true. The clock is ticking and time is not on your side) and that I’d not renew it if all the bugs were not fixed by then. But you have been fixing a lot of them already, and I do appreciate that. I understand that this entire mess must be frustrating for you guys as well. So if you can at least give us an update on this bug that ruins the Mists of Pandaria timewalking experience and how the work on fixing it has been progressing I will renew my game time, even if this bug has not been fixed yet.
Pally really getting hard end of the stick from blizzard .protection paladin is really squishy too and suffering in higher keys 
Where is my beacons fix, Blizzard?
This post was brought to you by Copilot.
AWC still on so no PVP tuning til then
can we ban WoW esports already.
Fix shield distance, I did not collect so many shield transmog to stay with them hidden because they clip into my head.
If you can’t do it right just give us a slider already with min-max distance so everybody can just adjust the position perfect for each individual character.
And let’s not forget the clipping into the arm or clipping into your butt or tail. So much damn clipping.
Balace Druid incarnation: Chosen of Elune tallent does not give a critical strike chance, this is big problem for all balance druids. It doesn’t show up in the character panel either.
New tank meta where every paladin auto cast bop on them self or other tanks when they drop below 35% health to reset agro on tank throwing the key and making every tank re roll brewmaster monk to avoid dropping below 35% health.
