I mean, we've been "BATTLING FOR AZEROTH" since Warcraft 1.

As opposed to battling a few quilboars so you can have a nice cookout that evening, that sounds quite a bit more interesting.

Hey an irrelevant question! What happened to wow classic?! Why I get no news about it

Because Blizz actually doesn't have that much planned out for it yet. They said basically that at blizzcon that it was an announcement, but it could be quite a while away still. they merely wanted to tell people it's a thing that will be happening, at some point

Gotta love and appreciate that cover art that makes a throwback to Warcraft I's original cover art. Nostalgic as fuck.

Definitely a nice touch from Blizzard, especially since this expansion brings us back to the faction vs. faction origin, even if it was just Orcs vs Humans before.

Actually almost dead, right now 2(lul) people doing GR on Europe server, the game's endgame content, so.. still shame to leave that franchise like was on Blizzcon. 

Depends on the time of year though since Diablo 3 sports a higher playerbase first month in seasons than Starcraft 2 right now but yeah, 2nd and 3rd month in seasons it's pretty dead ^^

I kinda dislike when people hammer Diablo for what end-game in it is. How is that different from things like HotS and SC2? Their "end-game" is identical to what it was when you started save for experience. Pushing GRs solo or with groups to me is as good end-game as anything in you compare it.

End-game in WoW, for me that was raiding and what is raiding in the end? Looking at the SAME boss several times a week casting the same spells on the same person. In that regard, even D3 got more variables in their end-game so I think it's a matter of perspective.

I agree that Blizzcon could have given at least something, don't care if it's 2 years from now but at least say something is under development :/

With how much recruiting has/hasn't been going on, it seems like they're not really sure what's happening either. I assume we'll see another class at some point, but it'll all depend on how well Necro sold (assuming it sold well, given that Necro is absolutely everywhere in the meta, whether it's speeds, high GRs, solo).

Not sure if you've seen some of the HD models, we'll be battling turtles. Might as well have gone with your suggestion.

Turtles in Legion.

Heck, Seagulls are this expansions unsung villain.  And this expansion was top tier.

Charge into a Warfront

Fight on the battlefields of a large-scale, 20-player cooperative Warfront to claim a key strategic location. Capture resources to build your faction’s forces, lead the charge as your troops lay siege to objectives, and fight the enemy commander to claim victory in this new PvE mode inspired by classic Warcraft RTS battles.

Im interested to see how this works out.

Yeah, if you're not a mythic raider. If you didn't have the legendaries you needed and a high artifact level then you get benched. M+ was amazing, world zones were nice, fun suramar questline. But the farm required earlier in this expansion if you're not a casul definitely made other expansions stand out more for me.

So if you are order u get a 110 boost and you get a 110 for buying the game Also?   So you get 2 characters?

No, you will get one boost to level 110 for purchasing / pre-ordering Battle for Azeroth and Legion should come with a boost to level 100.

I suppose the few people who still "develope" that game has no time beside start the new season to make some goodies for a game which have the lowest player base. Actually almost dead, right now 2(lul) people doing GR on Europe server, the game's endgame content, so.. still shame to leave that franchise like was on Blizzcon. 

Tin foil hat time: It is because D4 is coming soon.

      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.
