Hahaha @ Aggramar nerfs when we just killed him for the first time the week before. Oh well, feels good and bad at same time.

Arcane Mage has only two Artifact Traits baked in. Both of them are talent options and so not only do you have to sacrifice something else to get them, but they are the same in name only as the actual effect has changed dramatically.

This largely winds up being an issue so far with a lot of the talented versions. Either they are just the base version but lack all the artifacts passive boosts to that power which make it lack luster like ashes to ashes or weird nerfing like the druid moon spells has double the cooldown to acquire new charges which limits its utility and it is directly competing with two other AP generation abilities. Now we are still in the number tuning phase of things so it is all still subject to change both before launch and after.

That said been putzing around with demo warlock and they are fun as hell and fucking hilarious compared to demo warlocks on live. At this point I would say I am sorry mr skull but piss off I will stick with the new hotness abilities.

I got one, but I don't really do betas anymore. More fun to jump in when it goes live. Let it have a few hours of new xpac smell.

I mostly log in to check out the rotation and test dummy stuff for characters I am testing to see what I want for a main in the next expansion and then play a bit in the other factions quests a bit that I know I won't bother doing for a year plus when BfA starts winding down.

New bug with Aggramar, get close to 35% wait for a technique, push him during the tempest part and he doesn't go into transition or gain the empowered abilities of last phase. Small Indie company.

Check your Battle Net Launcher tab for Beta access, btw. I have access now once it switched from Alpha to Beta, and I didn't get an e-mail or anything, it just popped up on my launcher that day.

Edit: Ok, I lied. Apparently the e-mail came 14 hours after the launcher gave me access but I DID get an e-mail afterall.

Was getting Argus to 10%, then last pull of the night he bugged out at start of phase 3 and didn't use any abilities. Raid leader called to kill it so we did, don't feel good about it at all.

Revisionist history says that you have the achievement anyway and therefore got a perfectly normal kill. Grats!

For those with beta access that may have missed it, you can skip the horde intro scenario by taking a boat in the Troll starting zone:

Can you still get the azerite necklace if you skip the scenario though? You can easily skip the alliance one too, but I didn't get the necklace when I skipped it.

I haven't tried it myself yet, but replies on that thread claim you arrive as if you had just finished the last scenario and start the whole introduction questline that gives you the necklace.

I feel they don't get why Mistweaver was a fun class to play... Being able to move while channeling soothing mist was a core part of the enjoyment of the class as that steady stream of healing served as a nice buffer in quick paced events. It blows my mind that they keep ramping up the degree to which movement is vital in combat and yet make it a bitch for spellcasters to actually move.

Heard of other people getting this bug, hopefully they don't roll back your kill (or worse)

Lol if you get a chance watch the first few minutes of this BfA Q&A with Ion. His ramblings trying to justify the thought process behind the GCD changes are pretty funny.

One nice thing it sounds like they are still working on the fine tuning of what artifact stuff to bake back into baseline stuff. That is where I think a lot of quality of life stuff can be done pretty easily.
