Einige Klassen reiben sich im Pre Patch von WoW The War Within verwundert die Augen, denn irgendwas stimmt mit den Talenten nicht.

Update vom 25. Juli 2024: Mittlerweile hat Blizzard bestätigt, dass die "falschen" Talentbäume kein Bug sind, sondern deren Implementierung volle Absicht war. Es handelt sich dabei um einen früheren Stand der Entwicklung. Die aktuellen Beta-Talentbäume sollen dann erst zum Release auf die Live-Server gespielt werden. Bis dahin werde man maximal Hotfixes aufspielen, sollten die "falschen" Talentbäume sich als zu stark oder schwach herausstellen. Warum man sich dafür entschieden hat, bleibt hingegen unbeantwortet.

• We just want to clarify that we implemented the class trees for this patch as intended, and this is not a bug.
• The current War Within Pre-expansion patch includes our initial class and spec changes. As you can see in the Beta, there are more changes coming-- changes that we're adding with the full War Within expansion.
• Between now and then, we may deploy urgent tuning and bug hotfixes to classes, but the trees in the live game are working correctly.

Der Pre-Patch für WoW: The War Within ist in Europa seit heute auf den Liveservern aufgeschlagen und hat das Spiel ordentlich durcheinander gebracht. Mehrere Bugs sorgen aktuell noch für Unmut. Kein Wunder, denn alleine mit der revolutionären Kriegsmeute verändern sich einige Systeme im Spiel und alle Klassen wurden bereits auf die Änderungen der Erweiterung vorbereitet.

Zwei wichtige Kriegsmeute-Features sind aktuell völlig nutzlos und eines davon kann erst mit dem TWW-Release Ende August behoben werden. Welche Fehler sonst noch bekannt sind, lest ihr im Folgenden.
