			anyone can bring a TL DR from the nexus report from today, im not finding anything about it	
----
			
It was actually quite fun! Although it was the first Nexus Report I watched so far. <_<
 
I'd say that all the news were about improvements to the itemization in a way to make the gear progress from adventures to raids solid and consistent.
Also there will be all brand new gear drops from most of encounters, while a fair amount of current drops will be removed to make drop tables shorter at the expense of items with poor itemization. Like having strikethrough bonus on healing gear.
There will be raid gear tokens. (Bleh, they are following World of Warcraft path. While getting a token for a cloth gloves might be saving from frustration of getting a pair of gloves for a specific class and role that nobody needs anymore I find that kind of loot distribution very dull. It gives much less excitement and joy, because the actual item is given by some NPC and was not in fact dropped out of a huge corpse of some boss. They shouldn't have rushed this and rather worked for perhaps several months on the tech that would minimize the chance of getting items nobody needs?)
Then there are changes to crafting, so it won't be so powerful when compared to gear from raids. Raid gear should be the at top of the "food" chain.
 
And I kept hearing all this coming with the next patch. But not the small one coming today/tomorrow, but the actual Defile drop. That one will be released when it will be in a good shape for live severs.
 
The patch coming today should fix the bug with codes given during Gamescom.

I'm still at work.  I'll type it up when I get home.
 
In essence, a LOT about gear itemization, tokens buying gear, a lot less wasted gear drops, et al.
 
ETA, maybe seven or so?  I'll try to get it done before I cook dinner tonight.

			Tex - That's why we're all waiting for Rip to give us the TLDR. We don't want to watch it.

Difference between "want" and "can't" I guess.   :lol:
 
I want to be able to watch it, but it makes me want to slap my kids.
 
And their momma.
 
And my hedgehog.
 
And let me tell you, slapping a hedgehog hurts.
 
Now that I think on it, so would slapping my wife. She's 6'3" and built like a ladies basketball player (because she was.)
 
Anyway, I digress ...

no clear info on server merge/status/etc.
 
upcoming changes coming in the next patch (probably):
- the recently on the forum announced AMP/ability point changes
- clearer progression in item power through crafting->adventures->dungeon->raids
- more useful gear buyable with elder gems
- condensing of the loottable in instances/raids. tokens for raids and more class/role specific stat allocation on items.
- no additional costume slots
- no anywhere near planned dying on weapons
- looking into dye cost changes
- announced rebalancing of crafted gear will be implemented
 
- the defile loot will be more powerful than previous area loot (but still below adventure/dungeon loot as i understood it)
- more cosmetic stuff coming with the defile
 
so aprearently they not only listen, but also act. rebalancing/readjusting/fixing stuff as it is normal for ANY mmo in its babydipers.
i am satisfied with the announced changes and i am fine with a lack of specific info about the servermerge thing, because i am
a) convinced, that they are investigating all kinds of possible options to adress that topic
b ) with time and readjusting all that little blindfolded crybabies will come back anyways, because WoD is THE BOREDOM and every other mmo cant stand against the challange WS provides.

You're a better man than I am, Charlie Brown.
 
I could *barely* get passed the "Banter Segment" ... and while I am thankful for the information and time spent presenting it, the level of rampant chicanery just gets on my nerves at times. I skipped ahead to the very brief segment on the server issues and stopped watching immediately afterward.
 
I'm a fun guy. I like to laugh. I like to clown around. I like to shoot Nerf darts at my friends and make funny voices and weird noise. Hell, I can safely say, I am a strange guy. I goof off at work, I tease my co-workers mercilessly and they tease right back. My office is a riot of humor and unprofessionalism ...
 
Right up until it's time to get the work done. 
 
These guys don't draw that line. It's all clown-shoes, all the time when they're on-air. 
 
We get it. Y'all are a fun group of guys and gals. We love you for it. Hey, have fun. Seriously. I love seeing you guys have fun - but please, pretty please with sugar on top - give us your attention for the short time you have, for like maybe five minutes, before returning to the circus acts? 
 
For a 44-year old, father of three and life-long gamer, the Nexus Reports are completely not-watchable for me. Maybe my threshold for shenanigans has lessened with age - but when I see the word Report, I am expecting some news and maybe a modicum of seriousness.  
 
Sorry if that seems rude or mean, but it's honest feedback. Take it as you will. 
 
Love,
Your friend,
OXOXOX
 
Tex
