Small update on recruitments, some of you didn&#39;t get an answer yet and this is perfectly normal (season 5 updates took slightly longer than expected). You will most likely get one today. <br /><br /><font size="3" style="line-height: 1.3em;"><b>Blue posts</b></font><br /><div class="blizzquotewrap"><div class="blizzquoteinner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span><div class="blizzquoteheader"><span>Quote from <b>Blizzard staff</b></span></div><div class="blizzquote"><span style="color: white;"><b>Hydraxian Waterlords not rewarding reputation properly</b></span><br />This has been taken under consideration, and in a future patch creatures associated with the Hydraxian Waterlords will give full reputation irrespective of your character&#39;s level.

All new mounts that currently function like vehicles will be changed to function like other standard mounts. This includes the flying carpet.

They would still be immune to roots and other forms of CC, but could be poisoned, cursed, etc. It&#39;s wacky, but the way the classes have been designed it isn&#39;t worth the balance issues just for flavor in this case.

We don&#39;t do extended maintenance without good reason and generally, the reasoning is that we want to make sure that the community continues to have as good an experience in game as possible. That means, making sure new things in the game are there, databases are running smoothly, functions and features of the game are working as intended, etc.<br /><br />We&#39;ve just released a major addition to the game, and while it can be frustrating to have downtime, there are a lot of moving parts to deal with that we are making sure we have working all together rather than having people find that the aspect of the game they enjoy most is not working for them.

We sent a very similar list through to the development team. Currently the currency tab functions somewhat as an invisible bag. Apparently there are technical limitations that prevent adding many of the previous "currency" style items. It is very likely that currency items associated with pre-WotLK content will not be added. Though, we might be considering adding the Darkmoon Faire Prize Tickets, and any new currency items that we might add from now on. <br /><br /><span style="color: white;"><i>The various scourge stones for the Argent Dawn would be nice too. They really start to stack up from strat/scholo solo runs.</i></span><br />Unfortunately as I already posted, there are no current intentions to add currency-style items from legacy content.

(<a href="http://blue.mmo-champion.com/13/7191471307-so-no-dual-specs-with-this-patch.html" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: white;">Source</span></b></a>)<br /><br /><span style="color: white;"><b>Class balancing and parsing game data</b></span><br />Please remember that WoW tends to generate very complicated data sets. What I mean is that it is difficult to predict what a given player’s dps will be. It varies enormously depending on skill, gear and the other classes (and their players) in the group. For example, you might find that below a certain gear level a spec is not competitive, but above a certain gear level they dominate. You might find that class X performs well only when specific buffs are present. I’m not confident the data are always normally distributed. All of those confounding factors can make simple statistical tests suggest trends that are not actually there. The tricky part is not in running the actual test but in deciding which points to throw out. Do you only include players who clearly know their class? Do you only throw out certain gear levels? Do you include groups with different numbers of healer or buffs? Which data you analyze is everything.<br /><br />None of that is to say you should discount these data. We ask for numbers a lot, so it is awesome when players can deliver them. But you have to be very, very careful to not over-analyze them.<br /><br />On the actual topic, we chose the new Steady Shot number after a great deal of research. But we also know that sometimes even the best statistical models and predictions routinely fail to represent reality, which is why we provide a PTR in order to collect additional information. Is it possible we nerfed hunter dps too much? Of course. We have some confidence in our numbers, but rarely certainty. Certainty is a conversation ender. That’s not what we are about.

Please let us know how it goes. <br /><br /><span style="color: white;"><b>Removing target requirements on swipe</b></span><br />Just consider that a Swipe that generates a lot of threat with no targeting or positional requirement and no cooldown is almost immediately going to lead to the following:<br /><br />"Druid tanking is soooo boring. I can just push one button and maintain aggro on anything. I can just macro Swipe to every keyboard and faceroll or bind it to my mouse wheel and tank while I surf the Internets."<br /><br />Thunder Clap, Death and Decay and Consecration all have cooldowns for this reason.<br /><br />To everyone who immediately responded "No, we didn&#39;t want more threat," please read the entire thread. I posted a couple of times that no set of changes is going to please everyone, and ultimately that isn&#39;t what we&#39;re trying to do (because it&#39;s not a realistic goal).
