Eye of killrog fix incoming

[rabber]

Just datamined from PTR, a change in the glyph of eye of killrog tooltip:

Glyph of Eye of Kilrogg Your Eye of Kilrogg is no longer stealthed and can now place your Demonic Circle. The casting Warlock must be within line of sight of the Eye of Kilrogg to place the Demonic Circle. In addition, the movement speed of your Eye of Kilrogg is increased by 50% and allows it to fly in areas where flying mounts are enabled.

This may indicate that it's getting fixed. Use it while it's possible still!

*Pat Pat* Don't be sad-- they still got their Demonic Leap.

Technically you're still in los of the eye itself when using the trick, but blizz working on the spell may indicate that they found a fix...

Btw, i heard that the WoW balance system was to let one class be overpowered for some time to make people reroll to this class and simulate interest in the game.

Thinking about it, i remember that Shamans were good when you didn't have flying mounts and needed to have waterwalking and that mages and hunters used to be really awesome for exploration. Then they got nerfed and Warlocks became really strong (summoning stone in unknown zones). Then mages got good again. Then came the warrior with heroic leap. Monks looked promising during the beta and then the warlocks became good again at the release (and more or less druids too).
Now they seems to be fixing the warlocks..

Do you guys think it's possible that blizzard makes some classes OP for exploration in order to make theses classes appealing to us ?

CAN CONFIRM hasn't changed on PTR, yet, and is still able to TP thru walls

[Nonpareill]

This doesnt mean its fixed. The eye of killrogg trick through walls is done 99% while in LoS. Atleast in my experience. So while you cant cast it around a corner anymore you should still be able to get through walls.

But yeah it may indicate a fix that they havent mentioned cause they are messing around with it. Nacho says its still working on PTR. Keeping my fingers crossed

[Devestation]

Sadly folks, after many hours testing in different locations, the "TP thru walls" part of the exploit has been fixed on PTR as of last night when a new patch came thru for ptr
