11.0.7 Update PTR Development Notes

Answer the Call of Siren Isle

• Face old enemies and unravel new mysteries.
• A new currency—Flame Blessed Iron—is available to trade for items like mounts, pets, gear, and transmogs, as well as upgrades for a powerful new ring—Cyrce’s Circlet—which can be found by players. Flame Blessed Iron is also used to spawn one of three event bosses on the island, giving players an additional opportunity to earn unique rewards.
• Add some spark to your adventure when you collect items across the Siren Isle to help release Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren—an electrifying storm crow mount—from its bonds.

Characters

• Humans and Kul Tiran will gain new Arathi ear customizations. Head over to the Barber Shop to change up your appearance.
• Racial Updates
  • Developer’s note: We’re making updates to several racial abilities with the goal of increasing the viability of some underrepresented races. Many of these abilities have fallen behind naturally within the game’s ecosystem and our hope is that targeted tweaks will help promote increased diversity of racials across all content types.

Professions

• Pairing with the release of the specialization respec option, we are deploying some balance changes to several profession stats to bring them closer together in value.
  • Multicraft – Average number of extra items created via a Multicraft crit reduced by 30%.
  • Resourcefulness – Average percent of reagents returned on a Resourcefulness crit increased by 50%.

    • Total bonus amount of additional goods Multicraft produces when crafting Polishing Cloth in the final point of the Additional Embroidery tree reduced to +10% (was +50%).
• Developer’s note: While Multicraft and Resourcefulness each have their own niche, it is generally the case that point for point, Multicraft can provide significantly more value than the other crafting and gathering stats. Conversely, Resourcefulness provides significantly less value than other crafting and gathering stats. The above change should bring these two stats closer in value to the other stats, with the intention that it becomes a more interesting choice which stats to pursue.

  • /ping Threat = /ping 6
• The following icons have been updated with higher resolution artwork: Local Stories (map), player arrow (map), and quest type (quest log).
• The Group Manager pane has received visual updates for clarity.
• At max zoom on the map, quests will be placed in their actual location instead of consolidated in the quest hub.
• By default, the in-game camera has been adjusted so it is less likely to jump when environmental objects are between the player and the camera.
• Mousing over the Delver’s Journey progress bar will now display how much progress has been made towards the next reward and towards completing the track.
• Upon reaching a focused destination in the world, the focus state will clear and a message will display in the middle of the screen confirming that the destination has been reached.

Судя по иконкам, у нас в этом году будет какое-то более полноценное празднование китайского нового года.

Теперь межфракционные группы могут вставать в очередь на поиск подземелий и нерейтинговое PvP. Для подземелий, в частности, требуется полная группа, а ушедшие игроки не будут заменены.

Ну куда же без костылей.

Какой идиотизм, в чем проблема уже ввести кросфракционный лфг и лфр без каких-то ограничений? Ничего не изменилось, точно так же нужно найти фул пати, что бы регнуть условный героик, только теперь можно не идти пешком, спасибо!

Я просто, хоть убейте, не понимаю трабла введения кросфракции для таких занятий. Вся гильдия 50 на 50 Орда/Альянс, но все еще надо трейдиться онли в инсте и регать лфр онли отдельно, почему?
