The only time they said Kul Tiran/Zandalari were coming at launch was when it was announced. Ever since they knew the date it was 8.1.5 and they have perfect reasoning as to why it's been this long. You know these .5 patches are meant to be minor, not "big patch", no one has ever called it that. These patches are deliberately meant to be small, minor additions to the game not huge amounts of content.

BFA = adds hundreds of pets, supposedly will be adding a pet "bag" limit increase for 1000 polished pet charms.

grind islands, get pets.

3 patches in... no pet cap increase.

Who the hell is making this game?  do they even play the fucking thing?

People are devoted to being angry about Zandalari/Kul'tirans. The narrative is supposedly they're "the selling point of the expansion" which let's face it, if the ONLY reason you're getting an expansion is the allied races, those are some odd priorities. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for them too but it's hardly the reason I got the xpac

I'm close to hitting it myself.

Unique Pets: 1002
Total Pets: 1477

The only reason I'm below the 1500 limit is I did a massive prune of my collection removing duplicates and even only keeping memorable pets and those that are really useful for battling in the dungeons where you can't heal (so having dupes is very good) I'm struggling to keep under it.

Honestly it would be nice if they raised the cap to 2k or even 2.5k

You've got a point but honestly the reason I pre-ordered BFA day 1 was the Zandalari. I wanted to be a ZT Druid so bad for so long I instantly purchased it but it has dragged on so long I've lost any excitement for it.

After you mentioned it I had to check myself.  While I dont consider myself an avid collector i like to think i do more than most, an ive only 877 unique pets!

Im not against that at all.  Another thing purchaseable with pet charms.  But I suppose they have to stop somewhere and just arent there yet.

I know a lot of people in that boat.  I remember the initial push for them made it seem like it was going to be day one, but everything after said they would not be immediately available.  I get their logic behind it also, proving yourself etc.

Yeah they add up quickly and honestly there are so many in the game the 1500 limit is very low. Of course a lot of people like to mock pet/mount/toy collectors and so on, but they are nice side part of the game for those of us who enjoy it and consumes very little development time.

I mean I understand their logic but it's getting a bit tiresome at this point. I'm not one of those players that are outraged by everything Blizzard does. Yes BFA has its flaws, but if I wasn't having fun I wouldn't be playing. I just they were better at communicating things to us, we shouldn't need aggregator sites to tell us things and frankly the delays on flagship content (which the allied races are) need to explained clearly and in a way that is very hard to miss. That means on the main WoW website not twitter.

Fair, but even now we're communicating on a third party website, I assume because it offers us both things we want from it.

I kno this is where I find out virtually ALL of my wow info, other than word of mouth.

I just know the information about allied races was out long ago, and perhaps its because im a pretty avid player that i knew about it so quickly, but the information was definitely available for quite a long time even before launch.

Fan sites have their place but the over reliance on them by Blizzard is not a positive thing. They need a central place to release news and detailed information and stop expecting us to follow fifty bloody things.

      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.
