So I got a toon to level 82 and all I got was ...
|
(Disclaimer: I have read almost nothing about the spells and such of the various classes in Cataclysm ... that is ... past 80)
I have been dinking along with DK, paladin, and hunter and also trying out the new starter zones.
My hunter dinged 82, and for this he gets the marvelous ability to call another pet from the stables. Uh ... what?
I mean, seriously, there are only five levels here guys. And, looking ahead I don't see anything particularly remarkable coming up. Are there any classes that get spells or abilities that make you say, "WOOT! I got something when I dinged!" I mean, I got 80s of all but rogue and warrior ... and I am just sort of wondering which classes really "improve" as they move from 80-85. I mean, besides the basic, yeah I got some green armor that was better than this epic or that.
Lets see ... the hunter is going to get Aspect of Fox, which looks like it could be useful and Camouflage which looks uh ... well.

I think my mage got like two spells from 60-69, big gaps in ability gain.

There are those who play tank classes, and those that tank.
The weapon is only as good as the person wielding it.

Every class is this way now. 80 - 85 you get 1 maybe 2 spells. Even leveling up to 80 now there are stretches where you get nothing but 1 spell for what seems way too long.
It's very boring in the "get new abilities" arena now.

I was psyched to get Aspect of the Fox at 83 only to find out that sucks, too.

Every class gets 3 new abilities, at 81, 83 and 85. Dunno what the hell you people are talking about. These are all brand new abilities. Sure, some of them suck. Druids got screwed big time in that category, but the other classes got some cool new ones. The spell at 82 you get is just another slot for your pets, it's not supposed to be something special.

Before the spec changes there was just an illusion of getting more. Aimed Shot #nn, Wraith #n, etc. Your toon gains power with each level regardless if you get a new ability.
And as somebody else already said it shouldn't of been a surprise since you can see in your spell book exactly what you will get at what level.

i too was surprised by how few new stuff u get over the levels. also i miss seeing what stats improved when i dinged. the new thing is dumb. anyways i think the bulk of the content was to be the revamped talent system. in regards to that i am having fun with the new talent setups - but i guess if u played a lot since the last patch that might be getting old already.

Its not as bad as you make it out to be though. There was just the illusion that you were gaining new skills but for the most part they were just upgraded skills every few levels. Every class for each of its specs seem to have gotten a new skill that benefit them in some way.

Camo and Fox are essentially PvP abilities.
Camo: It's next to useless in PVE, as it can't be used in combat. So it doesn't even work with the portion of not getting targetted by range as a defensive mechanism. It does work fairly well in PVP though. It would be perfect if it worked in combat as a vanish of sorts.
Fox: It has its uses in certain PvE situations that you need to move in and fire off shots during boss fights, if you don't have focus to spare. It servers no purpose on trash mobs.
It works decently in PVP if you need to shoot someone running away, it will help you keep Serpent on if you use Cobra on the chase to finish someone off.
It's not useful for the part of it about someone beating on you in melee and gaining focus for it. We don't have any focus skills to use in melee range that benefit from the focus gain on it, that natural regen won't cover in the timeframe. Chances are you're dead when someone gets in melee range anyway, as that is the only thing any PvP minded person will do against a hunter.

You get the quest in Goldshire. You have to be naked to see it, though. Quest becomes available at level 69.
