The Creation Catalyst (Tier Set Crafting) will open 8 weeks after the content update.

The Creation Catalyst charges are global which means that an alt multiple weeks into the expansion will have multiple charges and can craft a set almost immediately.

Double the loot was dropping from tier bosses on the PTR.

Bosses will drop Tier Tokens instead of dropping the pieces directly.

Funny how ppl complaining about Mage, Hunter and Rogue buffs... The top S tier speccs in literally every bracket in this game. Like wtf is wrong with you?
The only reasonable complainings here were about retpally and feraldruid.

Rogue damage is only good now because of Frost set, if we are losing that we are losing top spot at well
And outlaw needs a buff regardless

Comment by Kerathras

“A means to an end” can they be any more obvious! Lmao! At least they’re honest about the fact that the only reason anyone will be doing that achievement is to unlock flying and not because the story is any good.

It's almost like people prefer to play one spec over another and want their preferred spec to be not trash tier 20% behind the top.

For example, BM is D tier at best throughout SL and is about to be F tier in M+ come 9.2.

You spelled 7% wrong bud.

Also you have 3 Dps specs, 2 of which are currently A to S tier in m+ and PvP next patch, the other literally the easiest spec to play in the game for raid while running around unhinged that also always performs well on the meter in ST. Get in line for the complaints bro...

ROGUES still among top DPS atm on PTR and most thought-after class in m+/PvP

Feral druid one of the highest burst AoE on PTR while also one of the highest ST since 3 years btw. (Thanks community perception and boonies lol)

Enhancement shaman is one of the top ST this patch too with the reworks they got, and a must-have in raid for windfury more than ever before (they do suffer in AoE tho, true).

Monk still one of the king's of m+/PvP with massive buffs to its offspecs this tier.

I dunno in what world you live in guys...

Meanwhile Ret is sitting with no blue post since 9.2 beta release, not even an acknowledgement that their set was bug-fixed after 3 months (we barely discovered it was, silently, last week), with both components of the tier set RNG on top of RNG for either a 2-sec (really blizz?) Buff or a 30% of a 50% chance reset on a rotational spell. Basically either you tank or you can kiss that char goodbye this tier...

Blizz, please stop hating Ret.
