BESTIAL WRATH IS GOING OLD SCHOOL, THIS IS NOT A DRILL

BMBestial Wrath now lasts 15 seconds (up from 10 seconds).

BM 2I REPEAT, BESTIAL WRATH NOW LASTS 15 SECONDS

Do you guys remember back in the day when this sucker lasted 18 seconds?  Do you?  DO YOU?

WELL THIS ISN’T QUITE THAT BUT IT’S PRETTY DURN CLOSE

everybody-stay-calm1Okay.  So let’s relax.  Everybody stay calm.  Couple deep breaths.  This is still “in testing” so it may not go live.  And if it does, who knows when it will actually hit.

But… but… guys…

OLD SCHOOL BESTIAL WRATH MOTHERF*CKERS

The other night I had a dream about Timewalking

Specifically I had a dream that I was doing Violet Hold (which isn’t one of the ones we’re getting but bear with me) and that I was a moonkin?  Yeah I don’t get it either.

I swear this Timewalking thing is just for me.  Like, Blizzard heard my prayers and floated down from the heavens to give this to me.  I just, guys, look at this.  Look at this list.

Burning Crusade – The Arcatraz, The Black Morass, Mana-Tombs, The Shattered Halls, The Slave Pens

Wrath of the Lich King – Ahn’kahet: The Old Kingdom, Gundrak, Halls of Lightning, The Nexus, Utgarde Pinnacle

Just looking at this list makes my heart swell three sizes.  All the time spent in every one of these dungeons… all that time, all those memories.  Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King, you guys.  Those were MY expansions.  That is World of Freaking Warcraft, Pike Edition.

I am just, I am so excited, I wish I could express how excited I am.  Don’t botch this up, Blizz.

So yeah.  PATCH 6.2.  Let’s talk about it.  What are you looking forward to? Because um, I’m basically looking forward to the whole thing.

But mostly timewalking.

It’s Happening: The return of TBC and Wrath DUNGEONS!

Are you a big turbonerdy nostalgia nut like me?  Miss the good ol’ dungeons of TBC and WotLK?

HAS BLIZZARD GOT A PRESENT FOR YOU

HABBEDING
LOOK AT THIS

DO YOU GUYS SEE THIS

look at this listlook at this list

LOOK AT THIS GORRAM LIST

NOW YOU CAN GO BACK AND DO THEM ALL WITHOUT NEEDING AN ALT

Ahem.  Sorry.  Got a little excited there for a minute.

To be fair this entire system isn’t without what I think could possibly be issues:

First of all, apparently this system only exists during “holiday weekends”, like the old Call to Arms PvP quests.  Why?  I don’t know.  Maybe because they want it to be a special thing?  Either way I want my retro dungeons ALL THE TIME, Blizz!

Second, I hope the above list isn’t ALL the dungeons we’re getting.  Basically all of my favorite retro dungeons are missing.  Chief among these are:

  • Mech
  • Underbog
  • Ramparts
  • Sethekk
  • Shadow Labs (yes I went there)
  • Violet Hold
  • Drak’theron
  • Utgarde Keep
  • Culling of Strat

So yeah.  Don’t stop with the ones you’re testing, Blizzard!

Thirdly, I hope they don’t just scale down gear and leave it at that.  Due to the many and often very drastic class mechanics changes that have occurred since TBC and WotLK, I feel like doing that would still overpower most of these instances at level.  Tune them to how they were when they were Heroics, Blizz.  Yes, even Shadow Labs.

But yeah, other than that?
