Comment by AlexKayz5% swim speed? Damn they better nerf it before it goes live or it's gonna be way too strong.Comment by Kiorelle...well, that's a buff I never wanted or needed. Thanks, I think? (not)

I'm actually really, really upset at the lengths to which Blizzard is going to remove +XP buffs. I understood - didn't agree, but understood - the argument that removing XP from heirlooms was necessary to keep new players from feeling like they were automatically disadvantaged compared to older players.

But this? This is a crafted item that literally anyone can buy or have made for them or learn how to make themselves. This is excessive, Blizzard. You've crossed the line.Comment by tmptfateWas expected... unless you are living under a rock, only listen to news that feeds your own opinions, and don't pay attention to the actual gameComment by tehdimmyMaking Azeroth Great Again.Comment by b0928So how about that 10-30% xp buff on Warmode that has never made sense, as a PvE reward on a PvP system.....Comment by Einfachheit...well, that's a buff I never wanted or needed.

Swim speed is kind of a weird perk though. At least runspeed would be used 95% of the time.Comment by elbardoThey could remove the unique-equipped so at least they're useful for a swim speed set to farm Azshara's Veil on Vashj'irComment by AlexKayzIf they're going to remove it, fine.

Sure it's supposedly faster in SL, but I'd still rather be at endgame asap.Comment by NazamberI mean why make it a useless stat when they can just..remove the gem from existence....#deletecodeComment by TorsoboyEh, not surprising. Given how much leveling has been greatly sped up I'm willing to lose a small XP buff.Comment by TattaliaThere's no way to test how much XP battlegrounds give on PTR, and considering how much they've ignored PvP it's going to be a mess. Leveling PvP will be a mess and SL PvP will be a mess. Them also removing XP from the trinkets that gave 50% extra xp from BGs and arena is a big blow, and knowing how xp works with the squish with there being less xp from mobs and more towards quest completion I have a feeling it's gonna suck.
