Shadowlands delayed

Is there a good reason for this?

Don’t be a spreadsheet dick

Also, he mentions there will be another expansion

Blizzard Companion App will support Legion, BoA and Shadowlands when it’s released for the expansion
Ray tracing in Shadowlands
Diminishing returns in secondary stat ratings
After receiving 25% of a secondary stat from gear, increasingly more rating to increase another % from that gear
Example: 25% -35%: 10% penalty, up to 49-106%, 40% penalty. Capped at 106%.
Speed leveling in Shadowlands in under 3 hours using dungeon boosting - probably not going to stay
Yes, Blizzard is giving away beta access keys, but not in the Americas yet.
Observations on leveling 50-60 in beta
The downside to unpruning
Best to worst zones
Spoiler: Maw is the worst

This Week in WoW
Cataclysm Timewalking
Free T-Shirt Day today (Sunday)
Stormwind: Dwarven District
Orgrimmar: Valley of Honor
Next Tuesday starts Arena Skirmishes

News
Naked & Afraid Winners!
Ketchupman - Lightforged Discipline Priest, 1 day 5 hours 4 minutes (also fourth with a Troll Enhancement Shaman at 1 day 10 hours 9 minutes) - Horgus mount
Guerrie - Void Elf Afflication Warlock with 1 day 7 hours 1 minute - Twilight pet
Drexl - Troll Guardian Druid with 1 day 8 hours 14 minutes - Transmorpher Beacon toy
Most Persistent: Zignea, with a Lightforged Shadow Priest at 2 days 21 hours 45 minutes.
Also thanks to finishers Thecowking, Koloka, Louielegdrop, Kara, Loosechange, and Hank. Koloka also ran more than one character.

Pre-patch on the PTR - what’s coming
Character creation and customization
New Player experience - Exile’s Reach and new leveling paths
The level and iLevel squishes
Limited time Scourge event
No time frame announced, but will be “several weeks” before expansion

Scourge event - updated gear from original WoTLK loot tables. Minimum level requirement for those items is 30 (or 80 for those who still speak BFA). Drop off bosses who spawn outside in Icecrown during the scourge event who used to be in dungeons and raids, like Patchwerk. Also zombie attacks in major cities.

Prepping for Shadowlands Pre-Patch
Level squish is coming to Shadowlands
Flying issue in Shadowlands: flying starts at level 30, which is level 80 in current reckoning
If you have any characters currently below 60, get them to 60 and teach them flying ASAP. Any characters who know flying going in will not have that skill taken away, even if they are below level 30 under the new system. (Time to make and park that Death Knight you've been wanting, or start at level 8 when the prepatch hits)
Gearing for Shadowlands
No real gear reset
Gear rewards are not super common, neither are drops
Maggie is 57 and has still not replaced 5 items - ilevel of blues is about 120, cloak is still 131 at level 4 (unimproved legendary cloak starts at 125). HoA was i489 and is now 132. No powers but still a good amulet.

iLevel translations
Starting characters in Beta with basic starter gear start out at iLevel 75. Some experimentation with character copy indicates this is about the same as iLevel 400-405.
My 443 character started out with iLevel 98.
Having gone through the Maw with a starter (75) and a better one (98), the latter is far more survivable
Therefore, you should consider iLevel 400 as "starter level".
Easiest way to get higher iLevels is to advance your HoA and at least get a cloak, which will be 125 out of the gate with no ranks (remember, blues around level 55-56 are 115-120).

Beat my first +4 mythic, completed but did not beat +5
Running and gearing up parallel Alliance and Horde shaman - running Alliance shaman as fast through war campaign as possible to get up to Battle of Dazar’alor
Final alt tally after Korrak’s - 6 Alliance 120s, 12 Horde 120s (18 total)
Looking at the holes:
All classes but one on Horde side have a 120.
Half the classes on Alliance side have a 120 (warrior, hunter, rogue, shaman, mage, and warlock)
No DKs either side; plan Mag’har and Kul’Tiran when allied races become possible.
Have lower levels on Alliance side mostly - dwarf pally, lightforged draenei priest, night elf demon hunter.
No monk Alliance; plan Mechagnome monk.
No druid Alliance; plan Worgen druid (maybe)
No tauren or highmountain tauren; none planned.
No empty slot for vulpera; will probably make Vulpera priest and retire Blood Elf priest to auction mule duty
That will give me all races except 2 Tauren races covered, and all classes represented on both sides. No panda on Alliance.

Running KRs with WNNs - shoutouts to Cryler, Zignea, Webbley, Drexl, Hidebound, Loosechanj, Zeryl, and our visitor JP
Have leveled up 5 more toons to 120 - Alliance warrior and mage; Horde mage, priest, and demon hunter. Horde nightborne monk is now 103; starting work on Zandalari shaman.
Started a lightforged Draenei priest - level 26. Yes, Alliance. In war mode.
Guested on PEOPLE OF AZEROTH
Considering buying a new computer

Mike
Moved to Atiesh
Pagle started falling apart
Now in JunoEclipse’s guild
That means I had to start my Lock and Priest all over again.
Eh, that’s ok
How to level up skinning and cooking so easily in Elwynn
Why? Because when you get to Westfall you get level 80 recipes
Playing a rogue is SO SLOW
Exalted with Wavecrest
Now I have to work on the turtles

Korrak’s Revenge - going until 7 January
Learned about Korrak’s Revenge, and how Christy got us hooked
Favorite stories from KRs - Christmas sweaters, Ren’s language issues, taking Zig through her first BG and then her owning them, Webbley’s laugh, the collective obsession with Stormpike Bowmen, Drexl’s bumming rides, and how Cryler single-handedly sabotaged an entire BG
Why you never click anything in tunnels - or, how much fun is it to kick naughty mages
XP and Korrak’s Revenge
Can go in as low as level 10 when the Group Finder becomes available; have seen a level 12 in there
Amount of XP you get increases as you go up in levels. Levels in some ways are depending on activities, but this is what I got for typical runs. In some ways, it depends on your effectiveness.
At level 25, I got about 28% of a level for a win (1.07 % for a win)
Level 40: 50% of a level for a win (1.2% per level)
Level 50: 95% of a level for a win (1.9%)
Level 62: 125% of a level for a win (2%)
Level 103: nearly 2 levels for a win (2%)
Lesson: doesn’t really make sense to go in until at least level 50. No epic speed land mount until 40; can’t get quests til level 60
Korrak: DO NOT KILL HIM THERE. Go to Zul’drak.
8.3 launch date announced: January 14
