@Zirene @wowclassicdevs Please reconsider the sanctified gear limit of 12 and reduce the number to 4 or 6. requiring nearly 12 piece of sanctified gear makes previous gear not worth anything. Also consider reworking a lot of the tier 3 set bonuses, ChatGPT can do better.

@wowclassicdevs Please consider a flex raid for BWL tune it for 20 but allow up to 40 players. Increase the loot drops based on the amount of people entering the raid.

Things are coming together for the start of our Phase 5 raid testing in Season of Discovery! We plan to open Blackwing Lair and Zul’Gurub on PTR at 10:00 a.m. PDT (19:00 CEST) tomorrow. As a reminder, you can find more details here: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/seaso…

@DustinW55232518 @wowclassicdevs Not too soon. This is good timing to expect 8-10 weeks between tiers. This will keep previous content playable and continue into next tier.

@wowclassicdevs This is way too soon. Warriors, rogues, and druids are still desperately trying to get more than their 2pc bonus. There are more hand of rags than mageblades… I’m yet to see a brutality blade in the wild.

@AggrendWoW @wowclassicdevs please consider updating TF I had originally asked if there will be changes to TF and was told it was too iconic of a weapon. Please reconsider this decision. Buff it up.

@AggrendWoW with recent changes to priest racial changes and wep skill runes. Is it possible we could get paid services to change our race?

@Saerocesoj @AggrendWoW What am I missing?

@AggrendWoW @tlew360 This tweet aged very poorly.

@AggrendWoW any updates to Thunderfury sword? Is it going to be same stats and just buff it or we changing stats like hand of rag? Hoping to know soon so guilds can start planning who gets bindings in MC.

@AggrendWoW seems to be a bug for looting fel lifeblood for the quest “brought to heel” for hunters rune rapid fire. Bug report submitted.

@AggrendWoW Excited for a new dungeon. But future of SoD and its success will hang upon getting new raids and new zones. Not BWL, AQ, or Naxx. Any tell on Scarlet or Kara raid that was originally teased in the announcement of SoD?

@AggrendWoW @TimLamaster729 The example you gave had an increase in fire damage from 40-56 to 98-122 for chance on hit. Why not do the same with TF chance on hit and increase it from 300 to 400-500?

I don't agree. None of the new weapons have been buffed to the point where Thunderfury "needs" a buff. Go compare new vs. old weapons. The dps changed minimally, if at all and we aren't going to see power creep in future tiers to the point where 60dps weapons before will be 80 dps after we change them the power increases will be much more nominal on weapons, just like they are in MC for the most part. Example of what I mean with the item improvements: (Old perds) wowhead.com/classic/item=1… (New perds) wowhead.com/classic/item=2… It's definitely improved, but its not massive. The strength of TF was never its base dps, it was the strength of the proc and honestly, the "cool" factor. Does it lose a bit of *relative* power because tanks got better threat tools? Yes, but it's kind of hyperbolic to say that it is "DoA" or not worth using/crafting as some other replies have suggested. The things it did well it will now do better because of the SoD changes. If you don't want it, okay, but I promise someone in your guild will and be happy to get it. Even the new Hand of Rag isn't perfectly optimized. You'll probably still replace it. The only reason we changed that is because it lacked a lot of identity in the original game and was mostly something you gave to your ret or enhance as a meme (or your rankers who likely replaced it with r14 weapons anyway). Thunderfury *never* lacked identity and that was the original question I was asked, in essence. "I need to plan who to give this to, how are you changing it?" i.e. "what is its identity going to be?". Its identity is going to be the same as it was in original wow is the answer. I always say never say never though and we change our minds a lot. If the designers decide it needs changing in some way they will change it, but I don't believe they plan to massively change its identity in the game (i.e. a tank weapon, primarily).

@spriestenjoyer @AggrendWoW @realharmen @tg16193429 The issue for Spriest is that their dmg converts to healing, which is why spriest will not see an increase of dmg, unless they do some rework so say mana converts to healing of some sort. Spriest can kiss being top dps goodbye until then rework the dmg to healing conversion.

@ZackorTV @AggrendWoW Isn't that the point of heat lvls, more drops per boss? Honestly think we will be fine

@AggrendWoW @tlew360 With 50% of the lockouts before next phase due to the 2x to 1x weekly lockout change & a quicker release of phases “weeks” to bwl. Will we see an increase amount of items or chance to drop from MC? Items that come to mind are bindings and ingots needed for hand of rag.

@AggrendWoW @TimLamaster729 Thanks for the clarification! Much appreciated!

@tg16193429 @AggrendWoW Mutilate is still going to be too good that you'll want to take it and go double daggers

@AggrendWoW @tlew360 hey Aggrend, can u please revert the mutilate nerf but keep the envenom nerf, you guys killed my favorite spec to play and now im forced to play sword rogue :(

@TimLamaster729 @AggrendWoW I'd imagine he meant change the stats to benefit another class like hand of rag. Of course they have to buff the sword like they have been with all other items.

@AggrendWoW @tlew360 So it's doa then? That's unfortunate.

@AggrendWoW Thanks for the info! Hyped for phase 4

@tlew360 No plans to change it. This is one of those items that it sort of feels wrong to change. It's too iconic.

@AggrendWoW is it possible to implement Guild banks in SoD? This feature has been a great implementation since its first inception. Would love to see this in SoD to help guilds share items.

@Atmos8861 @AggrendWoW This is actually not a bad idea. Give people the freedom to choose when they can do their 2 day lock out for the week.

@AggrendWoW Get rid of this Tuesday/Saturday reset thing. Or just allow everyone two raid IDs per week so they can do them at their discretion. Forcing weekend raiders to play during the week and weeknight raiders to play on the weekend. Who thought this was a good idea?

PTR coming up imminently with the first round of changes for this week. We've heard a lot of comments and feedback from players that they'd prefer us explain our reasoning for changes, so we tried to be as descriptive as possible this time. We have to move very fast and we may not always be able to go into this level of detail with every adjustment update, but it was important to the team to do our best to do so this time. Please stay tuned for additional hotfixes to the PTR over the next few days that will add more adjustments for Warriors, Paladins, Shamans, and others. We plan to add world buffs before the weekend as well. Thank you! us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/wow-c…

@AggrendWoW It is a seasonal server after all. Please consider trying something big and new with World Buffs that make it easier to collect and more alt friendly.

@AggrendWoW Love the new lock out system. however, Something needs to change about world buffs, because nobody is going to want to raid on alts with the thought of having to collect world buffs twice a week. A warrior "raid buff" isn't going to help. Consider making it a consumable.

I was in training when the Phase 4 video was released and I just got back and saw the Thumbnail. : | Anyway, questionable thumbnail aside; the content is great though... go check it out. youtube.com/watch?v=hcfmeG…
