7.1.5 PTR Feedback: Warlocks, Class Communication, and Nighthold Testing

Watcher explain why we should test your dungeon you don't listen to feedback

Steady/predictable Ember generation suited the Destruction rotation well, and something important was lost in the course of unifying the class to use a single shared resource, but fixing that at this point isn't just as simple as rolling everything back to Embers.

Mechanics like Demonic Empowerment and Soul Effigy are cumbersome to manage and while they have strong spec-specific theming, the actual gameplay of using them drags down their respective specs.

Blizzard

To maybe give a little more hope, we had several meetings and discussions yesterday about ways to improve our internal processes so that we can converse more freely and immediately on in-development changes. Some of those improvements have already been made, and I'm personally hoping the difference will be noticeable over the next few weeks.
I imagine the holidays are also playing havoc on the overall ability to respond, what with everyone going off on vacation/time-off.

As a guy who works in Dev, the amount of reasons for silence, from "We have no solution and don't want to bring it up without one" to "Policy to not talk about changes until finalized", is sometimes ludicrous.

Just a side suggestion: Why not follow the HotS, OW and SC model, and do small explanations with each change in the changelogs? Is it because there are just too many different specs in wow and too many changes for it to be viable?

Comment by Rick91y Nice work, 1 class down just 11 to go! Comment by vegeta0585 meanwhile, Unholy DKs weep, huddled in a fetal position in the corner, remembering the good old days of multiple dots and doing damage.

Comment by Oberro Lol, i guess no one cares about the minority of the wow, mistweaver monks and their 0 scaling problem thanks to horrible mastery. Comment by Eostare We just took one for the team. All you UH DKs, MM Hunters, and Ele/Enh Shamans better start hiding before they decide on their next victim. Comment by Fean you're leaving the warlock community out in the cold. Please communicate with us. We are extremely desperate.
