With 8.2.5 PTR finally available, the time has come to explore the new Goblin and Worgen models!

The wait is finally over and we've just uploaded two videos to our YouTube channel with the new Goblin and Worgen models and all their customization options. The Worgen model currently has some clipping issues, but the development has just begun, so they will eventually fix it! How do you like the new models? Let us know in the comments below!

Alright the worgen look like puppy faces now - so soft and fluffy ? But the eyes are neat, at least on the male model. They completely forgot the female worgen ones. They still have human eyes. As for the Goblins - I don't play one so I don't know every option there is/was, but they seem pretty much unchanged to me... not that I care; don't like them at all.

This is sad. I hoped that they would totally rework female worgens so they would look like wolves and not just hilarious puppies. Now this is even more... puppy.

The changes are ok for the Male Worgen but for the Female models I would prefer a whole new rework from the ground up including the worgen voice acting.  First time I ever played a female worgen in MoP the sound/voice reminded me of a raccoon stuck in a garbage disposal.  After that never really played Alliance again.

6/6 comments for Worgens.

You can really tell which race gets played the least.  

I dont know how much actually even changed with goblins because ive honestly played heavily with 1 person who rolled goblin.  1.

Um.. the female worgen faces look even worse then the tauren faces back when they changed those from looking mean and threatening to something you point and laugh at and say "durp-e-chu!" So... how do I feel about the changes made to worgens? The guys look better imo but the females.. well, lets just all agree now we finally get to see how everyone that works for design department in WoW REALLY feels about us females (and female gamers) and it's not good.

People who main Goblins should be happy, like all 10 of them. It's easy to forget they exist, somewhere within crowds of Blood Elf demon hunters and paladins.

Worgen aren't that bad, but their popularity went down. They still lack better customisation options, they look basically the same. Weird they didn't at least get more colors and shades of fur. That would have been the easiest thing to do.

Blizz just can't get the beast races right lol.  They have zero imagination when it comes to them so they end up have trash mob levels of customization.  Oh noes, it's the (insert color) furry run! 

As for female worgen, well, at least they don't have chihuahua faces now... so that's something I guess.  That said they're still as bland as ever.  Literally the same face with different fur patterns, which really coulda been tied to skin color or just an extra feature altogether.  And hairstyle... ugh, please blizz, moving a few twigs around does NOT make for a new hairstyle.  Panda's may have their own issues but, at least hairstyles isn't one of them.

That aside, the goblins look higher quality so that's nice.  But, there's something not quite right about them imo.  It's been a while since I've played mine but, I'm rather sure all those faces are basically the same face but, slightly altered.  Which is really just... well kinda typical with current blizz so I shouldn't be surprised.  It's basically the same thing they've done to all races for the most part when they upgraded the models.  They look nicer but, alot of the "uniqueness" of many faces are scrapped.

TLDR:  I'd say I was disappointed but, I'm honestly not even surprised.

Worgen should have never been a race. I was baffled that it wasn't developed as a class. I guess they didn't want to overshadow Feral, but it still doesn't make sense when I see werewolves running around in robes or swinging 2 handers.

True, as worgen are not a species, but a bunch of cursed humans from Gilneas. There are also few remaining night elven worgen in the lore, for some reason that curse/form so far only worked on two races.

      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.
