Of Demon Hunters and Legion...

I have to admit - I like what Blizz done with game in general. Smaller number of spells / skills, Outlaw rogue, new Holy paladin mechanics, Protection paladin new style too - there are tons of them new thing. But today I want to speak about Demon Hunters.

Ever since old quests in Blasted Lands (Rah'lik) I saw Demon Hunters in World of Warcraft now and then. Fishing in Azshara for season fish (before Cataclysm), looking at Warglaives of Azzinoth dropped from Illidian in Black Temple (for my paladin, of course, because he cannot wield them), tales in the lore, RPG with friends in Kalimdor... Demon Hunters exists in game and lore more than Pandaren, in my opinion. Blindfold, fel markings and warglaives - their signature features. Now we can play them.

And it's awesome.

I rolled Demon Hunter, done Broken Isles questchain and I like it. Being locked down with Illidan seems logical as well as him sending us to suicidal mission for keystone - nicely done, Blizzard. Conflict between Kaye and Altruis, matters od loyalty and responsibility - very good, very nice indeed - it added depth to Demon Hunters but of course now I want more of this. And whole new mechanics of fight. Fast, but not too fast. Good skills, although Havoc spec looks a bit facerolling. Very nice moves (I love double jump thingy), Right now things seems to be unbalanced, but it's normal, we have to wait till Legion and a bit futher for end-game balancing.

Demon Hunters. I couldn't help but smile when I compare them to monks (yet another leather-wearing agility class). Monks were disappoinment for me, they are like glass bowl - nothing to hook up with. Well, to be honest, whole Pandaria was huge disappoinment. Anyway - I like Demon Hunters so far. I know it's only the beginning (Legion per se isn't here yet), but I like what I see very much. Broken Isles looks so good as far as I could see in this brief look now, so... bring it on, Blizzard! I want MOAR!

The Unbearable Lightness of Dailies

-
Click click click, space, space, space, click - naval missions done. Click, click - garrison missions done. Hearthstone to Tanaan Jungle and let's begin daily dailies. And while we doing that, let's talk about dailies for a moment. I like 'em. Really. WoD dailies are much much better than Pandaria ones. Then again - anything is better than Pandaland dailies. They're quick, they give substantial reward (for me, I'm reputation freak) and they give me something to do (I'm no raider, no RPer, no guildie, remember?), they are easy to complete. And - this is most important - I don't see them as tedious chores. Take me 45 min to 1 hour to complete them and it's perfect. Because this is enough to relax after work and have time for family or nordic walking or whatever. Pandaland dailies we're long, tedious and not funny at all. WoD dailies won anytime. With Legion looming over horizon they give me something to do before new xpac.
