Who do you think will be more overpowered in next patch, rogues or hunters?
Hunter’s ranged attacks min range is now 1 yard . Mmo-champion calls it mega major über change. I’m completely and utterly dissapointed - Mortal Strike, Dispel Magic, and now reduced minimum range… Wait - it’s not instant? Oh, no worries hunters, wait a day or two it will be.
I can’t wait to see what BRK has so say about this!
Update:
It seems hunters won’t be able to shoot from 1 yard afterall - supposedly it’s a tooltip error.
But I can’t help to wonder, why were hunters able to shoot from 1 yard on PTR? Imo, it’s easier to say it’s a bug then explain to the community why they did such drastic changes and then reverted it. Drain Life didn’t get nerfed also - it’s just a bugfix after 2.5 years.
There’s a tooltip error, it should be “5-35 yards”. We want melee and ranged to be kept separate, so that when in melee attack range you should not be able to use a ranged attack. There’s some amount of ‘give’ there, especially in fast paced PvP which can produce some temporary gray area but that’s fully known with this change.
Feeding the issue of the tooltip error is a bug currently where you can indeed range attack someone while being meleed, but that’s in the process of being resolved as well.
Yes I know, I’m complaining a lot. I love my warlock and I’d hate to abandon it - every class got some love this patch, except locks and shaman. Oh wait, shaman got free spell damage from healing. I won’t get the Merciless Gladiator mount, and it will be twice as hard in Season 3 with the newly nerfed lock.
But hey, seems my druid will have something to look forward to.
The Mad Alchemist’s Potions “side effect” is actually a random buff from other elixirs. However it won’t replace existing elixir buffs if you have one on.
It would be wrong to make an entirely new making gold post about this, because there ain’t much to say.
When I first found out about Mad Alchemist’s Potion, I thought the side effects would be negative, like on Fel Mana (hunter pot!) or Fel Rejuvenation Potion. It seems I was wrong. Although the buffs you get will be random, so it might not be exactly what you need at the moment, it’s still a pretty solid chance to get a useful stat boost which does stack with other elixirs! Gosh I can’t wait to try it.
There’s not many potions you can make from Ragveil, so people usually don’t even bother picking them up, but since this new pot is so cheap to make, expect Ragveil prices to increase. It won’t make you a fortune, but you won’t regret it either.

Unfortunately, the new pots are unlikely to make any alchemists money. At least, not from selling pots. They require 315 alchemy to use, which means alchemists are likely to make their own.
