Devs Backtrack & Disable Further Artifact Traits in PvP - World of Warcraft - MMORPG.com
World of Warcraft News - The World of Warcraft team is on full defensive mode after the rocky deployment of patch 7.1.5 with its massive number of class / spec changes, legendary overhauls, secondary stats realignment and more. Patch notes sent out yesterday contained numerous errors and several alterations to systems and classes that had not been seen on the PTR. Community manager 'Ornyx' apologized for the patch notes disaster saying it would "NEVER happen again".

I think Blizzard has a mad developer leading the Wow staff atm, only someone who has lost it would make so many unnecessary changes.
Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.
My Review Manifesto
Follow me on Twitter if you dare.
Blizzard and its constant Class nerfing/boosting yo-yo routine.
Are people not seriously pissed off with it yet?
Unless you played today, you wouldn't have since it just went live.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Its nothing, only the whinefest people or those with no life, care.
It made me quit last month, and i hardly know anyone left who still plays.
I think he's refering to all the changes in general since Legion launched? Might be wrong.
If you are committed to a game, and invest a large amount of your free time into a class and spec only to be messed around one month to the next then i dont think it to be unreasonable for people to voice their frustration.
For you to make a comment like that with such disregard clearly shows me you havent played Legion. There's so many bad changes made to classes and abilities and not just in this latest patch disaster.
Lol, clueless, I play it daily.
There is nothing wrong with the changes.
Just whiney people, as I stated earlier.
As far as PvP specifically goes the suggestion on the US forums is that current US PvP activity is only 25% of what it was at the end of WoD; activity "should" have increased of course.
This company isn't forwarding the game for years anymore and is just merely fooling around with their customers. Exposing them to their idiotic changes and overhauls to everything, arrogantly denying every mistake on one day to again revamp half of it the next day.
This ongoing crap has reached "social experiment" quality.
It is going on for like 2-3 xpacks, yet nobody seems to notice.
Oh, wait.... ~10mio people noticed. And left.

the reason i stopped playing tbh,it was getting so you just gotten used to stuff and blizz feel the need to change again,its supposed to be an mmo with progression but nothing lasts more than a few weeks anyways,its dumb.
Listening to Blizzard prior to the release of the mess that is Legion PvP, templates should have "leveled the playing field" and made more people want to participate. That has not happened and has, in fact, reduced the community to near zero and that's just sad.
One of my favorite parts of PvP, and I am a very casual participant, was gearing up through earning Conquest in arenas and random battle grounds. I worked hard for my 3v3 100 wins each season and enjoyed the gear chase where I could choose stats and secondaries that I wanted to give myself a better feel for how my class performed. I could enchant, reforge and gem my best stuff. I could choose less commonly used abilities to tweak game play in a different way in each battle.
All of that is gone in Legion and the abysmal participation rate shows it.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There is not other plausible explanation.
If there's nothing wrong with the changes then why have they made statements on the official forums admiting that some of the changes are bad and need to be re-worked?
If there's nothing wrong with the changes then why have so many people left?
Even many of the main streamers (who depend on Warcraft to make their money) cant help but voice concerns over some of the class changes while trying to stay possitive.
You are so off base, I m not going to even comment
Got to get your post count up right?
Dmg is way overtuned right now and it isn't uncommon for your team to die through spamhealin. The level of skill required to operate caster vs melee is too large. For example you need 10 times the awareness to be sucessful as a mage vs being sucessful as a demon hunter.
Gone are the days where you could outplay your opponent and i have defeated very exp-ed player who have been 2400 on the previous season just because i was playing a more superior comp. Additionally, the arena population now took a nosedive and it is a shadow of what it was back in mop.
Last time you could steamroll your way to 2k provided if ur decent but nowadays the ladder is so small that its common to meet arena masters, 2.4k guys, multi season duelist and very rarely r1 at 1700 mmr. What it means it that you are facing VERY experienced players at mmr bracket that is usually played by beginners.
What broke the camels back for me was yesterday when they tried to pull a fast one and sneaked the 35 trait bs thinking they could fool the entire pvp community. I wont deny that the pvp community is whiney but when this happen, we in fact united to voice our displeasure at such a dumb move. Even pve peeps from general discussion were in agreement...
Healing is already tough the way it is and people who no lifed and unless you are willing to no life mythic + spam maw of souls daily, good luck on reaching 54 trait to compete.
Anyways, should they have told it like wayy months earlier i wouldnt have bothered to make my WW and BRM weaps be 33 after making my MW 34. Yea they reverted those changes but it is only temporary but at this point of time it feels like this game is demanding too much outta me.
Wod is a pile of dung no doubt but at least im able to farm my gear once and do what i love to do that is arena. Right now, i need to spam mythic + maw of souls everyday so once 7.2 hits i could be competitive and its just too much lol.
I dont wanna just play one char and one spec. In fact i wanted to play a different class and spec. I had an alt war/dh and they are wayy behind in ap. What made the game fun for me besides arena back in mop/wod was that if im sick of playing one char, i could hop on another alt but this xpac jst kills it for me. GG on getting 65 mil ap for 54 traits and that is only for one SPEC. You may never know if they nerfed ur spec to oblivion the very next patch.
PvP is fucked up because PvE re-balance.
Next Update.
PvE will be fucked up because PvP re-balance (in order to fix what they messed up in the previous update).
Rinse and repeat.
Blizzard since 2007 circa.
