Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Kathranis]

So with straight Orcs (fucking finally if you ask me...<3), coming in Battle for Azeroth do you want the old look Gul'dan has for your Orc char as well?

Orc posture could be the game's first character customization slider.

On a more serious note, maybe when they do the warlock casting animation revamp they can give hunched orcs a unique pose.

[Shadochi]

I wonder what they will do for alt leveling...

Even the most hardcore altomaniacs will say "omg, 120lvls?"

"OMG 120 lvls" is easily doable in 4-5 days of moderate play (usually when I don't have Uni on friday/monday I level a char almost to max).

Think it'll just be a checkbox between straight and hunched, or maybe choosing between 2-3 more between those 2 postures, but I don't think it'll be a slider.

Have you levelled an alt recently?

With heirlooms it's complete joke and even without heirlooms it is reasonable.

Already explained that they're making improvements to the leveling experience and implementing level scaling to 1-100.

Classic zones will scale in bands from 1-60, 20-60, 40-60, or something similar to that.
Outland and Northrend zones will scale from 60-80.
Cataclysm and Pandaria zones will scale from 80-90.
Draenor will scale from 90-100.

I will finally be able to do whole Nagrand while leveling For all the shit WoD gets, 90-100 leveling is really fun.

Help me out here people! I'm trying to come up with a list of 18 characters to populate my roster with in Battle for Azeroth.

Are there any super cool class/race combinations or fantasies out there? I tend to lean towards lawful good characters on the Alliance, but I'm open minded here.

Human snoozealadin?

Eh did they really say Draenor will scale? If Draenor scales, then the Nagrand XP pot trick will now be able to get you from 103 to 110 easily.

They didnt mention draenor. So i doubt it

[Deleted]

Human snoozealadin?

I have one of those!

I'm thinking I might roll an orc warrior due to the straight backs and make him a blademaster.

Looks like it's time to wrap it up.

The WoW part of Blizzcon was pretty lackluster, but this thread was not too bad from right before it till now. What's going to follow is months of idly waiting for the beta, then months of the beta dominated by the usual "well, this is shit" - "stop overreacting, it's just alpha / beta / last patch / release, they will fix it" and as fun as these things are, I think I am going to pass them this time.

So, thanks for all the fish. To those of you who like BFA for whatever reason and / or wait for good news, I genuinely wish good luck.

The cinematic for BFA was great.

See you in the thread for the next expansion. Maybe.

Void elf Shadowpriest? (they can be lawful good, don't judge them!)

Bladestorm and Critical Strike can work, but not sure about Mirror Image or Windwalk if you wanna go the classic Warcraft III route.
I wish you luck though too.

They scratch sideways, also they get troll slaves to scratch them.

Oke u seem very knowledgeable in regards to DIREHORNE. Here is a question for you:

"How is an direhorned fit in bear cave? Is get stuck with horne? How is climb to get honey? Does it fish SALMENS with horne 2?"
