You likely won't notice not critting 4 spells in a row, compared to 4 of the same spell in a row.
The way they display numbers at you with how crits are bigger and more vibrant (unless you use an add on) will make it feel like you are critting more things than you might actually be.
Depending on the spec there can be sequences of coinflips that cause your damage to either triple or drop to 10% of normal for a period of time, it's not just about the damage that the hit does

If you dont crit 4 spells in a row as a mage you just dropped 50k.. done.. then you need to wait for your next set of cooldowns to get back up.. its very unforgiving to not crit as fire. Although I cant remember that happening to me at 60 percent crit. Maybe 3 casts once in a blue moon..

Odyn still pretty buggy
when spear first spawns (spawns, rather than explodes), it seems to shoot out invisible stun orbs which give random stuns and can sometimes stun you instantly as a spear appears under your feet
when any add dies outside of rune, there is no shield and 4 people die
when you phase to p3 after the adds spawn but before you all have shields, there are no shields and everyone dies
etc
pretty awful boss to wipe on
|
I noticed the shield thing for Mythic. I was watching a video from Sco's point of view and they stopped all dps at 57% because the adds were out.
I didn't really know why since in phase 1 you don't do the same if you are at the end of the phase. That would explain why lol.

Gonna swap to offspec loot spec for this one dungeon so i can get my bis relic hopefully...yep there it is..another useless legendary.
It boggles my mind how there is no differentiation between normal and legendary drop settings :|

I'm gonna have at least 7 legendaries before my lootspec comes off Havoc for any reason

Oh wow that is pretty bad. 
I am still waiting for my 3rd. Hopefully I get it before 7.1.5 and they add another bad legendary.

The 7.1.5 legendary seems pretty great for havoc AFAIK, depends if they change the values around
It lowers the Metamorphosis cooldown - 4 min CD right now, 3 min if you stack CD reduction relics and maybe about 2 min with the right items which means syncing it with chaos blades (2min cd) and just having huge uptime in general which is good for all types of damage and for survivability
The more CD reduction you have, the more CD reduction is worth for several reasons which makes it quite likely that it'll either be great and you stack all CDR everywhere or it'll be bad to do so and you get none at all

Anyone here play a Warlock? I'm about to start levelling one of my 100s, I'm leaning towards my lock but I heard some pretty bad things about their DPS/performance earlier in the expo. Has that been resolved? How do the various specs perform? I'm relatively casual, mostly 5 mans, LFR and the odd raid with a hardcore guild's casual group.

I don't play much, so you may want to wait for a more informed opinion, but I believe that the main complaints about warlocks was just with the affliction spec, I think Destruction and maybe Demo have been doing fine.

afflication is weak except for specific fights. otherwise locks are fine. Also if your pugging just summon alone will make everyone love you...

Our destro locks are constantly among the top damage dealers in raid. In fact they deal so much damage, that they are expecting to get nerfed and preparing to have demonology ready in that case.

Affliction is also good for PvP. Good amount of damage and insane self-healing. Destro works as well, though Demo seems overnerfed.

So I randomely went to the reddit page for legion (first timeZ) and instantly regretted it, literally the first thread I read was people complaining that heroic EN was overtuned and guilds who were 7/7 hc en were having to hard a time, I was literally floored. Its easy as fuck.. maybe Helya is slightly more challenging.. but. for an organized guild grp ?
If anything is puggable, its not overtuned. Considering the kind of shit Wow Devs have to cater to Im growing increasingly more sympathetic to their mistakes.

Comparing the difficulty of ToV and EN and assuming that ToV should be roughly equal to EN.
Yes I would call it overtuned.
And looking at how low the kill numbers are sofar supports that statement.

Haha yeah i posted a bit in that thread. I went back to check my heroic helya kill and all our dds got 10% parses. Not because we suck obviously, but because the mobs had no health to do dmg to so you can not get the damage anymore to parse high on her thats how hard she got nerfed. Only 1 fire mage and 1 balance druid who starshowered/living bombed the small adds got 75 and 82%.
|
ToV should be harder, and is stated by Blizzard to be done after EN in progression. It also rewards higher ilevel for that reason.
Are there some overtuned parts? Yeah there probably is, but rather it be hard than a cake walk.

Talking about TOV, right?
EN to TOV was the biggest jump in tuning that i can remember, EN is a joke compared to TOV. I think EN is significantly undertuned and TOV tuned harder than most raids at the same time.
10 player vs 25 player is quite imbalanced on multiple fights which makes 10 very hard compared to 25 which is already unusually difficult.
If you sort comments by top there is a lot of good discussion too, you should generally do that for reddit threads: https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/5glvhm/in_many_ways_htov_is_most_meant_for_groups_that/?sort=top
