I’m so happy so far with the proactiveness and reactiveness from the devs I don’t think any of us are used to this quality of work - well done guys and gals

Some of the changes are frustrating... I think they're making these changes because the sweats are getting crazy, fully enchanted gear, making things seem too strong at level 30 when, in reality, you won't have gear that good at level 30 at launch. They need to balance leveling around quest gear or a mix of quest gear and dungeon loot, with nothing enchanted. Not a level 30 with 300 spell power or w/e they are doing now.

As someone who will quest and dungeon, I want dungeons to still give "good" xp. It feels good when you run a dungeon or two and none of the loot you want drops, but as a consolation you got decent xp.

39:50 this is right before he crashes out to the reckoning nerf lol.

13:16 imo all exp should be turned off in dungeons if a member of the party is over double the level of the penultimate boss of that dungeon. Dead Mines as an example would stop awarding exp if anyone in the party was level 42+.

Barrow deeps does look cool. I'm glad they're filling in some old zones that were really just unfinished "forever."

I think Aggrand was talking about possibly doing something with douses in MC. Maybe not the exact same, but something along those lines.

dual spec should not be super expensive being able to swap between leveling and dungeon spec tank/dps/healer opens up alot more tanks and healers so more people can find dungeons healers wont feel like they need to choose one spec and only do dungeons instead of being able to do both. They can find other gold sinks.

when it comes to power leveling, I want to be able to do it, because every expansion I power level my dad because he still plays at 68. And id like to keep being able to help him out so he and I can pvp and dungeon/raid together.

9:55 I believe people should be able to play and level the way they want if it's not hurting other players or the game. That being said, it also shouldn't be the best method compared to questing.

Esfand, what you were brainstorming of wanting to exist for a trex boss already exists in wow. In BFA they have the king of the trex's boss in atal dazar dungeon / the troll dungeon near the zandalari capital / horde main city / pyramid in BFA. Boss' name is Rezan is looks basically exactly what you said you wanted and is a spirit like you said / its a zandalari Loa / spirit god. There is also another bone t-rex in BFA in the open world / a rare spawn called dunegorger kraulok

They're putting in serious work on the Gamepad setup which, to me, is the best way to expand the audience. I would like to see WoW Forever on all consoles, including portables.

What if we had a quest for the dungeons that gave us a map for them after our first completion / the run when we had the quest. I would love to have dungeon maps and think this is a neat idea that doesn't just simply give them to us off the rip. The quest could literally be to find all the major zones of the instance

So my concern with making dual spec too expensive is healer availability with the new dungeon changes. Unless the changes fix it, leveling healer outside dungeons is terrible. Dual spec fixes that and we can have other gold sinks.
