In the first tier of BM talents, there's: Killer Instinct - Kill Command deals 50% increased damage against enemies below 35% health. Animal Companion - Your Call Pet additionally summons the first pet from your stable. This pet will obey your Kill Command, but cannot use pet family abilities. So even ignoring the "benefits" of having another pet auto attacking or whatever which probably isn't that important, isn't that basically like comparing "Kill Command SOMETIMES does 50% more damage" to "Kill Command ALWAYS does DOUBLE damage"? Two Kill Commands for the price of one with Animal Companion? Or am I missing something silly 50% != double damage . All the tier1 talents are very close in terms of damage, especially for leveling. Killer instinct might be costing you more damage due to overkill waste. For leveling I would personally either use dire beast or ac. | ||

Is it just the leveling experience that is totally out of whack? I took my 10X Twinks out to see if i want to reroll into one of These. Tried Afflilock (with no weapon? Because the one i had was Demo) and he is a god. Tried Elemental Shaman (with inactive weapon, I guess) and he is just hilariously bad aside from "the stars aligned and you get all the proccs"). I also did the pre BFA Questline that sends you to silitius on my old main Priest... Uhm, 4-5 extremly boring/standard quests and thats it? Nothing happens and it doesn't lead anywhere? Did i miss something? Most likely i will end up with my Priest again, as i allways do since Classic... But i wonder, was Elemental Shaman in any addon ever "good"? | ||

Also elemental shaman is good, i don't think it's the best DPS spec but it's definitely good. | ||

Yes, the leveling is a bit out of whack. Not only did they rework old content leveling, but the BFA stats squish apparently affected that too. Current BFA quest line in Silithus is like a pre-pre-expansion. It has been in the game when the last raid tier was introduced and ongoing. Blizzard has added quest or two to the whole thing afterwards. Quest line & event(s) that are happening for this pre-bfa patch are coming out this week. | ||

Killer instinct generally outperforms it by a significant amount. In fact on single-target animal companion is a very slight DPS loss right now. :x Stuff is pretty screwed in general right now, lower level experience is broken. 100+ seems okay but inconsistent as far as i've heard and the 110 raids were extremely overtuned. Old raids got a blanket 1.45x nerf to health and damage but Antorus is still OP. 8.0 launched with a huge lack of polish and some features missing / pushed to 8.1 - 8.1.5 --- They actually made major nerfs to the environment detail slider in BFA seemingly on purpose, and maybe to the other sliders as well. There are some actual numbers on this, e.g. "lodObjectCullSize" being 18 on the absolute max of the slider while it was 10 or less based on some comparison screenshots in Legion, lower being better. That will lower graphics and raise FPS for everyone that hasn't set these variables manually outside of the WoW options menu. After a bit of digging it seems that 5 on the Legion slider was equal to 10 on BFA. ![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/t5iaxia.jpg) ^Legion ![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/RwGyIGs.jpg) ^BFA on max slider (note the trees and other objects around towns in the background; the foreground is the same) After correcting some of these settings to approximate my Legion settings as best as i can, the hit from 8.0 has dramatically increased.. It has become obvious that i had more like 50% higher FPS on my Legion 7.3.5 benchmark than i do in 8.0 in the same zone, same flight path. Fuck that. | ||

No no, I meant Killer Instinct is "50% more sometimes" (execute range), Animal Companion READS like "double damage ALL times" which seems obviously better, but apparently has a stealth nerf to your main pet to compensate. But yeah I probably wouldn't use KI for leveling regardless since low health stuff rarely matters for ordinary mobs | ||

That seems to be the most likely way that we would see Jaina as a raid boss imo. Donno how reliable that is tho. | ||

Blizzard should bring back Thrall from retirement and have Jaina kill him to take revenge for her father's death. Since Metzen left Thrall has been lost in writing limbo, so they would hit two birds with one stone. Faction war goes into overdrive and many horde players would get their reason to rally behind Sylvanas. | ||

I agree with you, but IMO Metzen is Thrall and unless he wants to do VA for it, I don't see thrall coming back anytime soon. Also regarding Jaina being a boss at some point, I'd find it fitting if Thrall would be there during the encounter or afterwards. | ||
