Fun things I've noticed during the pre-patch!
Posted: Sat Jul 23, 2016 2:57 am
So this is more of a personal list than an informative one, but feel free to chime in things you've seen/experienced too!
Survival Hunters:
-This spec is never something I saw myself playing, because of it being a melee spec now and I've never been a huge fan of melee. However, on a whim, I picked it for my Tauren huntress and I'm actually having a strange amount of fun with it! Getting Harpoon at I think it was level 22, solidified it for me. I ended up giving it to my Orc huntress as well.
New Models:
-Now it was made pretty clear to everyone that both kodos and bears got a new remodel, but as I've been questing with my new Gnome huntress, I've noticed a lot of other things got a newer "HD" model. These may totally be old news, but they are definitely new to me! This is the list I've noticed so far, as I've explored/quested.
~Murlocs
~Naga (Male & Female)
~Human tents (the specific ones I'm talking about are in Northern Stranglethorn around Kurzen's Compound)
~Rabbits and rats (companion pets and critters)
~Blind Mary, the ghost in the house in Tranquil Gardens Cemetery in Duskwood. She used to look like this wraith thing and now she looks awesome and scary. It was around the time of finding her that I thought to make this list! If you haven't seen her yourself, you should definitely check it out!
I think that's it for now, but I just felt like sharing. I kind of like the new model additions. I am partial to some of the old bear models, but I feel like overall, they are a welcome change. If I find anymore, I will update!
Bugs:
-When I level up, my health bar increases as normal and the bar fills back up to max, however my hunter pets always need to be healed right after I level.
So what about you guys? Have you seen anything get a model upgrade? Have you seen/witnessed/played anything surprising?
*EDIT* :: Just discovered that as a hunter, if your pet kills something and you don't hit it at all, you still get credit. This is a VERY welcome change for me, as someone who has lost boss loot on old dungeons, because I wasn't paying attention and my level 100 pet would one-shot it before I got close!
