Or at least let it be off by default. I don't know whose idea it was that a screen that it supposed to showcase an item should start with an animation that makes it so you can't see that item.

I always turn off the "Combat Animation" checkbox, but then when I move on to the next item it's turned back on by default. Oddly the "Hide Armor" checkbox maintains your selection, so maybe it's just a bug, but frustrating nonetheless.

They’re supposed to be blood soaked and red.

With how the new Catalyst works, suddenly there is an optimal piece of gear to convert for your stats. If you don't get that exact piece or other BiS in vault, the most optimal is to get the reroll and gamble in heroic/mythic raid. A mythic chest or even mythic tier set chest isn't season BiS, since there's now a conversion that's better or your conversion doesn't have your stats. It just feels bad.

Or do you think we will get something like Wrath Remix? Either one sounds fun but I feel like shadowlands could benefit from it as it can be rather slow for farming

As a mount collector, I'm barely breaking even on tender each month at this point. "Huge discounts" they said, which has turned out to be on everything but the two things I particularly want - the Bloodhunter set and Harlequin's set. They're 90% of my tenders. I can earn 500 more, but that's not enough to pick up Eve's Rider, let alone any of the little bits and bobs from the actually discounted traders.

Going to be ignoring this month's actual trading post. Half of it just seems to be recolours of tabards, sweaters, boots, flower crowns, and other crap. I remember when they started this whole thing, they said they wanted to use it to add items that weren't able to be put in-game because they didn't fit, and now it just seems to be padded to hell every damn month.

And Blizzard, if you're listening, I specifically said earn, not buy.

EDIT: To everyone going "you're not meant to buy everything" yeah, I know that's how it works. What I'm saying is, if they give us access to the backlog, we should get more ways to earn tender - like they've done in the past - so we can actually buy stuff.

EDIT 2: To everyone coming in going "i'M a mOuNt cOlLectOr aNd i hAvE 300k tEnDer", well done for never missing a month, never unsubbing, never buying anything else that catches your eye. Your abject lack of empathy and understanding for others is truly a fascinating representation of the WoW community. Who cares if other people don't have things they want? You've got yours, right?

Hello!
So i logged my character (after 4-5 expansions? of not playing) and when I mounted i received the removal of all of them.
Why is that, I earned all of them fair and square?

This poor thing is so wonky!

I had somehow gotten 7 sparks and managed to craft 3 pieces of gear. Logged in today to see my 7th got Thanos snapped. I look forward to seeing what they try to do about my pieces that are already crafted. Its a mess seeing that others haven't even gotten all of their expected sparks yet I got more than we're even supposed to. We're beta testing still :)

It's been years and the shit doesn't remember that I want to hide combat animations. There's like 300 pieces to look through this month and they all have to go through a long ass animation before I can see what I'm looking at.

This is actually one of the most useful features and it would help new/returning players.

You're not supposed to be able to catalyse weapons. Someone go try it, I don't wanna brick my main.

I was recommended an 8 year old vid while on a nostalgia wow kick, and thought hmm lemme try what this guy did

Woke up to my accounts merged, staring at my original character from 22 years ago!

Apparently sword spec with a dal rend, and logged out for the last time in AV lmao

It feels like bumping into an old friend, I want to give Kr a hug for all the memories xD

So, the Sparks issue is still up, and every single ticket sent is getting a generic template response of "we now theres a problem, we can't do anything, we're sorry, good luck".

There's a post that summs up every current post around this topic:

There's no official answer about this after the "initial solution" that only brought the missing ones to a bunch of people, whilst thousands of players are still affected by it.

Terrifying route my tank just shared in discord that he wants to try on our 16.

With Midnight introducing Lindormi’s Guidance and later expanding the system with Lindormi’s Glow, I think Blizzard has already laid the groundwork for something that could be an incredible Mythic+ QoL feature.

Let tanks create their own routes using the same system.

Instead of only having Blizzard’s predefined route highlighted, give the tank a route-planning tool before starting the key.

The tank could:

-Open the route planner.
-Select the packs they want to pull throughout the dungeon.
-Save/confirm the route.
-Have their selected mobs glow for the entire party so that Everyone can then follow the exact route the tank has planned.

So rather than:
“What pack are we pulling next?”
or
“When do you want Bloodlust?”
or
having the tank constantly look at a route on a second monitor/ alt tab, the dungeon itself tells everyone.

This would be especially useful for tanks,
One of the biggest barriers to getting into tanking Mythic+ is route knowledge. You aren’t just learning your class — you’re expected to know the dungeon layout, percentage requirements, skips, which packs can be combined, and exactly where to go next.
With a customizable Lindormi system, a tank could prepare their route before the key and simply follow it in-game.

It also makes communication much easier.
The tank’s route becomes visible using the glow effect to the entire group, so everyone knows:
“These are the packs we’re doing.”

You could even allow routes to be saved, shared, imported, or made specifically for different affixes/keys.

Blizzard could leave that entirely up to the players. The tank still has to decide what to pull, where to go, what skips to use, and how to optimize the dungeon.
The game would simply provide the visual tool to communicate that decision to the party.

We already have Lindormi’s Guidance/Glow showing that the game can identify and highlight the mobs required for Enemy Forces. So Why not take it one step further and let the tank decide which mobs glow?

It would eliminate the need to memorize routes and the need for a second screen just to follow a route — while keeping the actual strategy and decision-making completely in the hands of the players.
Give tanks the ability to say: “This is my route. Follow the glowing mobs.”

I just used a bonus roll on King's rest and received Mchimba's Ritual Bandages. At 318 ilvl, the absorb is less than some 220 ilvl trinkets. This is just one example of many trinkets that are unusable. What is the point of this, Is it pure oversight? Is it purposefully undertuned to make other trinkets feel more special?

For tanks specifically, the situation right now is that you pray you get a dps trinket rather than a tank-specific trinket from dungeons because they are so terrible. Is blizzard ok with this design?
