Feral Druids: While all specializations should receive balance changes in 7.3, Feral is receiving some extra love to fix underlying issues with the spec. Their base damage is being increased by 33% and many of their talents are swapping rows in order to reduce some of the complexity of the spec. You can check out the full changes in the Upcoming Feral Changes post.

Frost Death Knights: Several weeks into the 7.3 PTR, Blizzard announced upcoming Frost Death Knight changes. These include changes to the Talent system and damage buffs to move away from the overpowering Breath of Sindragosa talent.

Based on the amount of weapon traits you have unlocked, you can acquire additional abilities and passives from each relic tree.

The first tier of abilities increases the item level of your weapon, the second tier has light and shadow themed abilities, and the third tier lets you add an additional rank to a minor artifact trait.

Each array of abilities is randomly generated when a relic is equipped. However you can preview the abilities before socketing the relic in the crucible's UI.

Commenting on the updated caster animations. I guess warlocks don't exist on wowhead or they aren't considered casters. You said that all classes and specs should be updated before that patch but didn't include warlocks at all in your list.

Edit: haha, the downvotes. I had to look it up myself but it should have been stated in the guide.

Patch 7.3 is days away. I can't wait! Hope everyone is going to enjoy it as much as I am :D

slowly you will start locking the other two zones over several weeks.

Unlocking?

Comment by 1792980

What quests do you need to do to be able to go to Argus? Finish the whole broken shore questline? Or is it unlocked after completing the "Whispers of a Frightened World" scenario or something like that?

Comment by Faze3

I've been traveling and without gametime abilities last 6 weeks or so, How BAD is this gonna get someone behind still trying to do Leg flying ach?
