A look at the first PTR 4.3 Changes

A few weeks ago Blizzard asked – class specific – which kind of changes players would like to see. For us Enhancement Shamans many posts were about Searing Flame, target swapping, AoE, underperforming vs ranged classes and the like. This raised high expectations. Now that 4.3 hit the PTR we can have a first look at what is new.

Transmo… what?!? How does Transmogrification work?

In case you wondered, nope myrddin.de hasn’t gone Wildstar! World of Warcraft is still my game, but it doesn’t hurt to peek to the sides now and then, does it? 😀
The chant you seem to hear in WoW everywhere seems to be „Transmogrify!“. So we will take a look at how it works, what restrictions apply and I’ll show you my favourite gear.

Enhancement Shaman Craftable Items, Patch 4.2

The coming patch will introduce new craftable items for us Enhancement Shamans, which will become within a few days into Patch 4.2. These items are Dragonfire Gloves, (Itemlevel 378) and Earthen Scale Sabatons, (Itemlevel 378). As for weapons, Blizzard apparently gave Blacksmiths the ability to craft an Agility Sword and a Strength Axe, but you know fairly well which of these weapons we won’t be able to use, don’t you? Good that they recently blogged about avoiding this kind of itemization issues. My forum posts are up to date unanswered 😀 Anyway here are the items and the required crafting materials.

Patch 4.2 Enhancement Shaman Changes

Patch 4.2 has been announced to release next reset, at the 28th June. Apart from all the changes that you can read up on here we will look at the Enhancement Shaman specific changes. You may have wondered that the site hasn’t been updated, bt the ugly truth is, there was nothing to announce for our class. Until the Q/A was filled up with complaints about our current status. Interesting enough, 24h hours later Enhancement Shamans got announced and it was it was a buff.

Witcher 2: Triss Merigold Nude Patch (Patch 1.2)

Out of curiosity I was looking at the xml-files in the Witcher 2 folder and noticed that there were some skin definitions. It was rather easy to make Triss Merigold appear nude everywhere. Sure it may be childish, on the other hand it doesn’t hurt anyone to give thes dark times a pleasant, bright contrast.

Witcher 2: Near Invulnerability (Patch 1.2)

In case you find Witcher 2 too difficult, or are more interested in the story than the game I have modified Heart of Melitele in the def_item_misc.xml to make you very powerful. When you meet „Newboy“ at the very start of Witcher 2, you agree to have a look at his talisman and then persuade him that it might be cursed he will give it to you.

Enhancement Shaman Trinkets

„Which are the best enhancement trinkets?“ This is a question I get a lot. Actually I have never really tested all trinkets before. Heroic Essence of Cyclone dropped very early for me and as 372 trinket it just seemed to be the best choice. With Fluid Death it seemed to be a nobrainer, especially since mastery wasn’t really that high and the Darkmoon Card: Hurricane did not really hit that hard.

Patch 4.1 Titles & Equipment Manager UI

While checking the new gold drops from bosses for the previous post I noticed that the character menu got a new ui to select Titles and Equipment. On live Realms it is a bit bothersome to select new titles if you have a lot. Also the Equipment Manager no longer opens to the side and is better integrated into the char screen … unless … you want to see stats while playing around with gear 😀 Anyway here is a Screenshot.
