Recommended Posts

The uninstanced version of the Nighthold raid will serve as a hub for the Nightborne Allied Race in Patch 7.3.5 and beyond.

The Nighthold

The uninstanced version of the Nighthold serves as a new hub for the Nightborne. The zone cointains portals to Dalaran, Orgrimmar and Stormwind.

Pandaren have arrived and they are teaching the Nightborne the way of the Monk.

"Directing chi at a target can be difficulty at first. You, at the front, try to hit that training dummy over there."

"Very good! I'm quite impressed!"

Nightborne Lore Characters

A number of familiar lore characters can be found in the new hub, such as Thalyssra, Ly'leth, Valtrois and Oculeth.

First Arcanist Thalyssra

"It had to be this way. We no longer need the Nightwell, nor its power. We must forge our own destiny."

Ly'leth Lunastre

"The business with Elisande is over, but there is still much to be done for the city."

Arcanist Valtrois

"Oh, it feels so good to be my old self again."

<Valtrois runs the back of her hand gently across her high cheeckbone.>

"As you can see, mana is wonderful for the skin!"

Chief Telemancer Oculeth

"Mage portals take so long to cast. With telemancy, it is like instant transmission!"

Is this a Nightfallen hub, or the hub for the Nightbourne race?

 

And if its a Nightfallen hub, is there a portal to Shal'Aran, and can you turn in Nightfallen emissary quests here?

I'm triggered because they decided to find a way to let Nightborne be monks, yet they won't do the same for Worgen and Goblins.

Nightfallen Druid looks pretty sick! Just look at that Cat Form. Daaamn.

Nightborne cannot be Druids. It's just an altered version of Shaman's Ghost WolfGhost Wolf through MasqueradeMasquerade.

My hopes and dreams crushed. This was ALMOST convincing me to switch to Horde.

It is nice with us nonetheless :-)

...okay...

How are they going to make this work lore-wise with Legion content?  Their characters start at 20, how will they introduce the entirety of the Arcan'dor questchain, finding the message from Thalyssra...

Just removing it all and starting into WQs when they reach Legion?

Maybe I missed out something, but I thought that Nightborne were an Horde Allied Race, so why there is a portal to Stormwind in the main hub for new Nightborne character?

Maybe there will be some changing for Nightborne characters, like some kind of legacy quest in which we travel back in time to experience the fall of Elisande, something like Huln's quest in Highmountain storyline

I think this is awesome even its not as extensive as other cities or other similar expac areas just because they don't seem to be doing enough of reusing/pushing the evolution of now obsolete/non-current expac ares (which to be fair isn't a necessity), but why Stormwind portals? Is this going to be a completely passive area in terms of how the monk place/shattarath etc. is? Because otherwise it doesn't make sense to do it if they are going to be a horde only race, unless the new allied races are meant to be ( in terms of lore ) aligned with the different faction but not directly involved/contributing too the faction war given the lack of the individual direct hate or strategic need to push the relative agendas.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
