Why do I care about RWF at this point anymore :D It's just a pointless artificial competition which heavily favors one team by design.Comment by FaelystiriSo they nerfed Ulatek a second time during EU night?

You clearly don't know how much this change on mythic actually makes a difference.Comment by FlanellThe catalyst converts nothing anymore so why should anybody care for items that arent changable into a set piece? Might as well remove it entirely because the only reasonably purpose of it was changing the stats of gear.Comment by FroggyFreshBladetorm.Comment by BorotvaStrange how they deemed more important to display bladestorm as an important aura on nameplates than fixing the elemental shaman 4set bonus which is bugged since ptr and still doesn't work...Comment by Hellboy999The catalyst converts nothing anymore so why should anybody care for items that arent changable into a set piece?
