New Realm on the Betawhich is scheduled to take place this weekper the schedule posted by BlizzardFlaskataurMrs. Flaskataurpossibly for finer raid tuningItem Changes

Drakefist Hammer and Annihilator are no longer One-Hand, matching how it was during the original Burning Crusade.

G'eras no longer sells Primal Nether for Badges.

Comment by InnuendoThe decision to make professions, and only professions, progressive itemization is such a weird and arbitrary decisions by Blizzard. This all stims from their very bad decisions to not make Drums from LW mandatory, so instead of just fixing the issue and fixing Drums, they instead double-down and make ALL professions worse by having them be progressive. Now people will not even touch Blacksmithing at all. These unique weapons that actually had a place in TBC lore will be forgotten because they are not BiS unless they were 1h and could be dual-wielded.

This beta is so much worse than Classic's. They are making rash, arbitrary decisions without even asking the community beforehand like they did with Classic. No one asked for this.Comment by redbackare dragonmaw and dragonstrike also mainhand only?Comment by effyouzionLiterally everyone asked for this. I, as well as everyone I play with, reported the one-handed weapons as a bug.Comment by Rokmanare dragonmaw and dragonstrike also mainhand only?Comment by oshyyNo fixes for gandalf and lobster farm I seeComment by redbackLiterally everyone asked for this.

Go ahead. Let's get that pre-buff 2.0 GARBAGE in there instead. "Literally everyone" is asking for it, right?Comment by Phreeze83with all those buffs and last patches etc., the game will be far to easy and sucked out. They want to give a longer experience to players by not giving them "freeloot" and easymodes.And about all those drum-discussions... just better remove the %^&* completely....Comment by Xingbgwith all those buffs and last patches etc., the game will be far to easy and sucked out.

Are you going to argue otherwise? Also I never said easy mode, but easy as possible... generally the whole game is easy mode already and that's my point.Comment by TgeKerrionGive this man a medal! Summarizing how the min-max meta from today changed the game experience for every1, and how all the new players who want the best result refuse to adhere to it, but instead of compromising on their end and look for a suitable guild that meets their needs, cry about how the min-maxers should be nerfed. And blizzard the dense company they have become listen to those "cry-babies" and changed the game to meet their needs.Comment by XingbgPerma 80 haste is easier than without that 80 haste.

The only issue I see is that all the spastics will ask people to have drums and will ruin the experience for a lot of players which is fine by mine.We all know that content is piss easy. Anyone who has half a brain will be able to clear each raid on their first night raiding as long as they meet the minimum gear requirements. If you feel like instead of just having fun you want to do a chore list(world buffs in classic) just, so that you can clear the instance 5 minutes faster that's up to you. It's just that it's going to be off-putting to new players that are used to just getting everything as easy as possible and it's going to be off-putting to anyone who have more than a brain cell in their head, since it's literally meaningless buff, but will force a meta that will ruin the community, but hey have your 80 haste at the price of ^&*!tier server experience.Comment by CompletegibberisCasual and unskilled here and I prefer it as difficult as possible.

Those paintbrushes you guys use, to apply to everyone, are an indication of how petty most appear to be that post here in the area of pro/con ;) Big brushes, covering all...:)

Cant it jsut be a for/against, without imposing a MYOPIC, nuancing, to placate your feelings? I know. I must be kuhrazzy
