Legendary Evoker WeaponThe Legendary Evoker weapon was a great surprise, but many players are frustrated by the acquisition. Are there any plans to address this?

We don't have anything specific planned for 10.1.5, but it's something that if we were to make adjustments, hotfixes are a reasonable avenue there. It's something the team is talking about a lot. There's a lot of lessons learned, and good feedback. Trying to figure out how to situate and what the role of an exciting Legendary weapon can be in a modern game, given player psychology and community expectation around it. We want to still continue to chase those sorts of cool thematic surprises where it makes sense story-wise, where it feels like a cool hook for a specific class, or a set of classes that haven't had one in a little bit, but at the same time are mindful that what starts out as a cool surprise for some people can over time turn into a source of frustration and become almost an expectation. We definitely don't want to be in a world where down the line months from now, if you're applying to Mythic guilds for the next tier, you feel like you need to have this Legendary to be competitive or to have a shot at being recruited, and that's out of your control. We know those are all concerns. No specific answers to announce right now, but it's a hot topic of discussion and I think lessons learned from this and how we handle it, would inform how we frame any future Legendary efforts down the line.Right now the Legendary Evoker weapon rivals item level 480 weapons. Are there any plans to adjust the power of the weapon in Patch 10.1.5 or in the future?

Nothing specific I can announce right now. We look at a range of options, we often reign in the power of items from prior seasons like the Annulet to make sure they're not just continuing to stay too centrally important in later seasons. I think philosophically though, Legendaries may be an exception to that to some extent. Back in Shadowlands, if you had the Sylvanas bow, you were using that for quite some time. It's tricky when it starts to feel like an expectation to be competitive and that is out of your control. We understand that.
