Bugtracker Activity

[Nichizzy]

Hi,

I've been posting a number of bugs and comments on the bugtracker for my class, but there's been few activity so far. This prompted me to compile some basic figures to get an idea of how things generally are for bugtrackers.

I've separated the first 30 bugtracker posts into their current statuses. This was done at about 0810 - 0830 on 9th Dec. The results are found below:

DK - 3 New,    6 More Info, 19 Confirmed, 1 In progress, 1 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review
DH - 13 New,    1 More Info, 15 Confirmed, 1 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review
Druid - 19 New,    0 More Info, 10 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 1 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review
Hunter - 11 New,    4 More Info, 14 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 1 Fix need review
Mage - 0 New,    1 More Info, 25 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 4 Fix need review
Monk - 2 New,    8 More Info, 20 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review
Paladin - 17 New,    9 More Info, 4 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review
Priest - 6 New,    3 More Info, 20 Confirmed, 1 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review
Rogue - 7 New,    0 More Info, 23 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review
Shaman - 23 New,    0 More Info, 6 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 0 Fix need test, 1 Fix need review
Warlock - 3 New,    1 More Info, 19 Confirmed, 4 In Progress, 1 Fix need test, 2 Fix need review
Warrior - 3 New,    26 More Info, 0 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 1 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review

 

Great deal of activity (under 10 new posts) is found for DKs, Mage, Monks, Priests, Rogues, Warlocks and Warriors. About 80-90% efficiency!

A moderate amount of activity (around 10 new posts or under) for DH, Hunters. About 60-70% efficiency

Poor activity (closer to 20 new posts or more) for Druids, Paladins and Shamans. About 30% efficiency

 

I'm a Shaman first and foremost and I felt Shaman bugs were not really looked into, for the longest time. I did not want to pull out figures off my @ass so I did a compilation. The numbers confirmed and saddens me as a Shaman. Nevertheless, I hope these numbers could be viewed from a larger perspective, not just from Shaman player's point of view.

I've heard that some classes do not have CMs so the activity may fall off abit - but these numbers prove that the disparity is too large! If need be, I hope other CMs could take some time off to contribute whichever bugtracker that needs help, even though its out of their specialty - for the good of Firestorm.

 

Best Regards,

[Nichizzy]

Typo on Warrior

Warrior - 3 New,    0 More Info, 26 Confirmed, 0 In Progress, 1 Fix need test, 0 Fix need review

Can any CM or QM or Dev comment on this?

I just did a quick glance and the trend is still going on very poorly for Shaman and less so (but still poorly, relatively speaking) for Paladin and Druids.

Shaman had 62 reports untouched out of 75 reports, dating back from mid November. Druids have 36 and Paladins 39.

Isn't there an action plan at all to compensate for when there is a lack of class CM?

Or is it a, 'Gee, oops!' moment?

[Nichizzy]

Bump

 

[Shieldpop]

Is there even a Shaman Class Master?

 

[Sketter]

No, there is currently no Shaman CM, Feel free to Apply, All classes are currently waiting for a Second Cycle of Fixes, We currently have only 1 Spell Developer, and its quite hard to keep up Fixes for all classes a week, Plus, its a Chrismas now, So people have Holidays. The Activity of Fixes might go down a bit over these Holidays, But i assure you, that It will go back as it used to be after new Year.

As for Shamans, I have already a list of all Important Bugs. (In my Opinion, Since i did not play Shaman Much in Legion) And will be Looked at as soon as Possible, as any other Class.

Here are the Examples, Feel free to Correct me, Suggest a Higher Problem Bug, Or anything else.

Thanks for the reply Sketter, atleast you keep us informed about it and we appreciate that

[Nichizzy]

Sketter, is is possible for the Shaman community to share our joint opinion on critical bugs to be fixed? Perhaps we can limit it to about 3 per spec.

When these lists of bugs are confirmed, could the importance be raised to critical or something? We've not had a proper round of fix for months while other class had their go now and then. I think its only fair that we're placed on top of the stack for once.

Appreciate you looking into this very much, and for your reply.

Merry Christmas!

Do not forget about Ascendance which i posted for Resto since this is our "Burst" healing for sticky situations, also the talent Echo of elements isnt working properly (also reported).

Thank you alot for putting time and effort into this Sketter.

[Sketter]

As i have Showned Above, i have a Slight idea of some Critical Issues. I would say that Mastery: Deep Healing and Mastery: Elemental Overload are the most critical, You can suggest here what would you like to see there instead of the rest.

[Sketter]

Btw, Windfury Does not count, Its already beeing worked on.

[Nichizzy]

Thank you Sketter!! Pretty spot-on. Might have minor changes, we (shamans) will discuss.

I feel that all Mastery related issues should be fixed first, Mastery is our main stat that affects everything we do.

After that passives should be next on the list because of the impact they have on gameplay, effectiveness and general spellbehaviour.

Then the keyspells should be tackled for each specialization like: Ascendance, Chain lightning, etc...

 

[Tiglan]

Really happy to see changes are coming!
Thank you guys:)

[mima]

Sketter i think that u should rlly add elemental focus spell as critical for ele shamans 

[mima]

And what are u doing with windfury lol?

[Nichizzy]

I've not tested on Mastery as a stat. Is there a problem with it?

 

I'm more familiar with Elemental than the other specs, so I will only comment on Elem. My opinion is:

General

+ Elemental Focus!

- We dont need to fix Voodoo totem. Earthgrab and Stun totem is good enough for now.

- Dont mind not fixing Wind Rush.

 

For both Fire and Lightning build

+The mechanics of Elemental Overload when paired with either Stormkeeper or Echo of the Elements. Basically consumes additional charges - critical because those are our bursts.

 

For Lightning Build

+Chain Lightning - huge MP loss. Support fixing. Please note that somehow damage buff from Stormkeeper doesnt affect all targets by CL, only the first one or perhaps 2.

+Talent Lightning Rod is supposedly a huge dps increase (that's what I read in retail forums).

 

For Fire Build

+Lava Surge proc isnt working properly. It should immediately enable instant 1 cast of Lava Surge. We should be able to lob multiple LBs! The way it works now is:

a. if it works, u get to instant cast after a delay of about 2 sec after proc

b. sometimes is just doesnt work

c. sometimes after casting the procced Lava Burst, the cooldown goes to 1-2 sec then resets to 6 sec without you actually hardcasting a Lava Burst - that's like 14 sec of CD.

[Wrathtron]

I have heard,there is problem with hunter missing pets and warlocks are doing too low damage.

[mima]

I agre with u nichizzy

[s]

The http://www.wowhead.com/spell=5394/healing-stream-totem should be stackable with the talent http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108283/echo-of-the-elements 

[Risk]

We're gonna get a new Shaman CM this week.

[Nichizzy]

If that happens, I'll be super glad!

[Sketter]

Its great and all that you explain Which Spell/Talent dosent work, But like i said Ealier, I dont play Shaman so much as i used to in WoD, Since Legion is Time Consuming for Mains, Not time gearing up Alts, So you have to Explain me the Issues with it. It would be a best if You also Linked a Bugtracker Report with it. If it has not been already made. Make one. Thanks!

*EDIT* It would be Surely in everyones best intrest if You guys could Contant me on Discord. Would make stuff Much easier.
