12:00 This is an amazing change. Probably my favorite of all TWW changes. Being forced to do a 1 hour cooldown event like the Superbloom to get Veteran gear really sucked. Those events will also be more fun if you are doing them when YOU want to, especially when you have a lot of alts. The stress of completing these weeklies will definetly go down for a lot of casual players.

4:40 that choice node change is huge actually for m+, that's the node that is a choice between ray of frost damage and ray of frost AOEing. Having both makes ray a hard lock for m+ builds most likely, only downside is ray really doesnt interact with any hero talents so it could end up being kinda out of place rotation wise
@SundagarАй бұрын
it defo feels bad atm in s4 not taking ray of frost for m+, it's such a strong nuke on ST and now we can use it to cleave regularly in TWW

Wonder how consistent they will be with patches. Imagine them adding the .0.5 and .1 open world event thingies like we've had in dragonflight that all had their own currencies and that were all... of varying engagingness. I would be surprised if they went "this is just another optional way to engage with the rewards, you may continue doing the same stuff as before and will get the new rewards too". Usually, they would put a new currency on their new content to make it unavoidable (for world content players) to still go to the new stuff 50+ times.

7:25 I completely agree with you here, I think every dps spec should have some form of AoE baseline spell/skill regardless of talents. Take Warlocks in beta for example, all specs have to take Implosion, Seed of corruption, Rain of fire no matter what build you are making so why not just make all three baseline for each spec and instead put another talent in place of the aoe spell?

Clearcasting is on a function of mana spent on live too - For every 1250 mana consumed (0.5% max on live) you have a 1% chance to get clearcasting. We probably have enough clearcasting stacks anyway but removing excess is good. Having infinite clearcasting would make arcane very broken. Unfortunately these nerfs feel like they're just hitting everything so hopefully this doesn't completely kneecap arcane
@Daimyo-Ай бұрын
Less clear casts, less missiles which now do less damage and generate less arcane charges. You'll feel it in the dmg meter but also in the rotation. It'll be a lot more arcane blast/explosion orientated once again.

While arcane is getting a bunch of notes each week, the current version of the spec has some hyper degenerate gameplay. I'm talking spamming arcane barrage with no charges because it's the best way to get clear casting. Arcane base abilities are too weak and this would lead to our hero talent tree doing 35+% of our total damage.

Is it weird that im kinda happy with the Arcane nerfs, despite having been an Arcane main for 6+ years? I have a friend who wanted to play Arcane purely because it was doing absurdly high damage, and was probably gonna be super meta, but with all the nerfs he's less likely to, which means we wont have 2 arcane mages in all our m+ groups. I just have issues with 2 of the same spec in a small m+ group of friends.

As for being a casual, probably? Its honestly alot more fun than you'd think to not push for the absolute highest of content, im happy in my 2.7k io range.
@Daimyo-Ай бұрын
@@MegaNever2010Nobody's stopping you from enjoying the game at your level. That said there's layers to all of this. A spec becomes meta if they got over the top damage on top of good amounts of cc and survivability (and a raid buff). If the damage sucks they won't be meta. Therefore the only thing required even for you to stop arcane being a meta spec is the DPS getting nerfed. Blizzard didn't only nerf the DPS, they killed the flow of the rotation and the mobility of the spec and made it clunky instead. That benefits neither you, me, Venruki or professional raiders. It also doesn't benefit the haters of the Mage class. All they want is our DPS to suck, but they don't win anything extra if our rotations feel like crap to play. Maybe this helped to explain myself a bit.
