Uldir Sets in Battle for Azeroth

Recommended Posts

I wouldnt worry to much guys. This is just the first raid. Ive seen blizz do this before. They will put in some better looking sets as the xpac goes on.

I... Actually like how they look. But the fact there's no class specific gear designed with the class' theme in mind is a joke. Wrath's DK sets were insanely cool because of that very thing now we just get this generic looking stuff. It's a step backwards IMO.

You mean all the horses they give in BfA? Ye different saddles and carpets on them needed full power of artistic team

Play the non-lame faction. Anything that is not a horse is clearly unnatural.

Yea lets make it so every class only has to worry about picking the best talent in each row and only 3 buttons to press outside of CC. I'm looking forward to when you can loot just one weapon that changes to you best stats when you swap specs, along with looting only one trinket that procs increase in stats with no cool new effects.

 

Legendaries in Legion like Scarlet Inquisitor's Expurgation and Cold Heart were lame, like why do I want to modify an ability in such a way that it makes my class fun and augments playstyle?

Tier sets were really limiting in Legion and will probably will be in the future due to Mythic+. The bonus effects gained through Tier sets practically tied the player to wearing a tier piece that might have mediocre stats they don't need all because they need the necessary pieces to get that passive effect. Currently on my Enh I have a 945 chest piece that gives Crit/Haste yet I can't replace it with Haste/Mastery chest piece that is ilvl 975. For once it would be amazing to actually get gear without worrying about tier sets getting in the way of any sweet loot drops.

Well First raid - always had some weird stuff, but tn was beautiful in its own way.
Those sets - well except mythic they are ugly... Reminds me leveling gear from Cataclysm in some way but we have what we have.

Most important is that 4 armor sets (armor archetype) I hope would not be 4 that you will get in term of stats. Knowing that they removed Set Bonuses this could also can happen. I have not seen the loot tables but it smells like we will get 4 sets + weapons since they are back and trinkets. No much room for stat diversity this time - this can be a real problem for PvE.

That can mean that best item wont come from raid but from Mythic+ dungeons and this is bothering me as it was bothering me in Legion. That Raiding will slowly be shadowed by those Mythic+ dungeons.

But we`ll see.

See? Right there! This post is the absolute proof that we aren't paying enough blizzard to design 12 different models. Blizz needs moar moni!!! Perhaps they'll release acceptable transmogs... in the shop.

I agree that these sets might not look best, but just wait to see the full thing ? The art team really nailed it as far as weapons go in BfA. Even questing gear looks better than this ?.BfA has some cool-looking green armor as well.

+ we could expect themed colors to raid lore. if we have to kill blood God, then i would expect some blody like armor, at least at M difficulty. even Emerald nighmare have it as a 1st raid, but now? realy disapointed. 1st ex-pac i´m not exited about

i feel bad for Blizzard.

Everytime a new tier set was introduced there were always so many people complaining about the design in itself (for a few sets each tier) and often i read about complaints that tier sets dont resemble the raid. It wouldnt make sense and would be way cooler if the sets would adopt the raidtheme.

Now they are doing that, and everyone is like "wtf, where is my unique class set?". I mean, ok, the Uldir sets are not thaaat special, but i kind of like them. I totally agree with ion's statement in one of the devQ&As. He said there are already so many different class sets to choose from and to transmog into, now going to have raidthemes adopted to the items gives something new, and since you can combine them with previous class items, i bet there will be some really cool sets coming up. I can imagine the mail set shoulders boots and gloves combined with some other shaman stuff, and it will be awesome (i think).

And i am excited more for the upcoming raids now, since the sets will have their themes. ?

aaand lawrenz with the common sense and optimism.  
 

Eh. It's more about that everything on the internet has to be combative. discussed, argued, and trolled to death.

Yes, I called the sets lazy, but it's my SUBJECTIVE opinion, someone is bound to like them. There's nothing to discuss, it's a matter of taste. I was expecting more from these sets, but the next ones might be super awesome. It's not like I liked every tier set that was released either.

Thats a lot of contradiction.  

But youre right its all taste.  And thankfully there's Transmog.

      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.
