Hunters! Blizzard has posted some development notes covering their goals for the talent rework on The War Within Beta.
In this thread, we’ll be testing and talking about Hunters in The War Within.
Look here for posts from the development team as adjustments and bugfixes are made throughout the testing period.
Please note that off-topic or inappropriate posts will be strictly removed.
The War Within Beta
All classes’ Hero Talent trees are available for testing. Please keep in mind that this is a Beta environment:
- There may be UI elements on the talent panel that are placeholder, including things like talent icons, text, or final UI art.
- Some talents may not be functioning yet, or may be marked as not yet implemented (NYI).
- Some new spell visuals and audio may still be a work in progress.
- There are some talents that are not fully tuned yet. This is expected, and we will implement tuning adjustments throughout testing.
The combat design team has two big areas of focus at this time:
- Finish work on changes to talents, especially wherever Hero Talents still need adjustments.
- Fix bugs that are blocking testing of new talents.
Working from Feedback
Alpha feedback thus far has been of great benefit to us.
Now that we are entering Beta, our focus on Hero Talent trees is shifting away from reworks and design changes and towards tuning and refining.
We want to thank you so much for all the forum posts, videos, and discussions all over the internet. Your feedback and impressions have been invaluable for bringing their identities to life and making them fit into what you love about the classes you play.
We are looking forward to hearing from more of you as you get a chance to try Hero Talents for yourself.
We are specifically interested in feedback or impressions on these topics:
- Hero Talents that you feel are “required” for your spec in a type of content, such as raiding or Mythic+, or that push you towards picking a specific tree. This could be due to damage
