Dragonflight Alpha - Evoker Gameplay

The model is... yeesh.

It would get old after 5 minutes.

Model is pretty fine. This is one more class, it is not meant to appeal everyone. A small percentage of people will play it, just like every other class...

The world and quests and character involved at first sight do look REALLY promissing... but I remain cautious. This footage gave me Wrath vibes.. which is insanely good, but again, caution.

Enough Dragonflight for a Day. How about some WotLK stuff for a Change? It is about time for an Update :P

the model looks way worse when it walks

what is there to update? Everything from WOTLK was datamined 15 years ago.

Maybe this time they will open the gates of the locked dungeon in Stormwind

Seems pretty good. Basically looks like Mage with a different toolkit, which I think is what most people wanted from another caster class. I'm not really sold on the whole "Hold down a button to charge it up" mechanic, kinda just sounds like a cast time with extra steps, but I guess we'll see how it feels. Other than that though I don't see any issues, will definitely try it out at least and see how it feels.

SO we're not able to display our actual armour on the Dracthyr then?

The last preview said "Show off your armour", i guess they mean the armour they select in the customizaion, or is there something missing in this build/?

Atleast before they said you can show like chest, shoulders and head or gloves or something like that. I mean the actual items you are wearing, however they might be very "butchered down" versios.

I'm hoping to see extra effects at different charge levels via talents. stuff like, "1st charge is 20% faster," "half charge causes 40% slow," or "Full charge also stuns for 3sec."

The real Hogger is locked in there, even the Arbitor was afraid of that soul so she refused to allow him into the Shadowlands. Thus he sits planning for the day some fool lets him out, too dangerous for life or death. In the void's future only his prison remains.

Ion said the dragon form will show big pieces like shoulders and belt buckles. Evoker tier sets will be designed to be shown either entirely or in large part, he wasn't that clear there.

Well the model looks even worse in the real world than I had thought. Those wings are bad and the way it moves, yikes. Sure I know this is all subjective but what a waste of resources. I agree that the hold down to power up things is silly as well, but again I guess its something new for the sake of new.>?

Still not convinced this is anything I want to be paying a sub for.

That's exactly what it is, and I like the sound of it. More phsyical interaction instead of just mindless button pushing is fun. Wildstar did that really well.

The way they run looks so terribly goofy hahaha oh man that is yikes

So we'll be able to play a dragon, fighting dragons and ride dragons in dragon isles. They should have named the spells dragon fire, dragon heal etc. as well.

No way this is ready by December lmfao

They will release it any anyway. They don't care anymore. Too many are willing to pay money for shit quality.
