| Well, they got rid of twinks fighting non-twinks. In several categories that means never getting matches period.
Some of these changes are seriously odd though. The free badges of conquest gear is fine and all but they might want to review just what that means to what classes. Two free pieces of T8 and a crafted belt and boots are the minimum, now figure out if your class has anything from the list of gear. Oh well, more incentive to run heroics and naxx I guess but not so pretty for a Uld hard mode guild that is trying to recruit.
The DK changes have me puzzled too and I notice a little Replenishment nerf (well, if you consider -25% to be little) in there. The Replenishment would bother me but the new 1% mana gained each time Ignite ticks basically means I'll be full mana at all times anyhow. Thank christ for the 20 stacks for all potions, I've lost more bag space to speed or wild magic pots than anything.
Anyhow, it'll be months before any of this hits live and it'll likely change between now and then. Besides, I doubt anyone really hasn't figured out that blizzard has their plan and part of that is balancing with a sledgehammer and always changing ninteen things at once. |
