World of Warcraft: Dragonflight - Developer Twitter Space

How come no questions about the Pre-order?

Probably because they can't hit a specific deadline yet, and the expansion has a lot to go through yet, in forms of testing and design. Also, some countries don't allow pre-orders without a date of some form, so they can't just put out pre-orders for the sake of pre-orders, as much they want to.

Ha there's the question about the Kalimdor book. At least it was asked in a nice little bow-tie.

[Caprias]

My expectations for Taliesin were already low but...damn.

Asking questions that were answered less than 30 seconds ago is painful to watch.

I don't like the guy but I think he did a great job overall.

[oldgeezer]

Standard flying is still the long term plan for Dragonflight.

Excellent news.

Yeah, you don't have to like him, but he's doing his job as a host well.

The fuck are you talking about? There's literally nothing in there about Covenants. The "Renown" is cosmetic rewards and bonus areas.

Yes these two things really make it exactly the same. There was never any gear on reputation vendors before. And if we ignore everything else they've learned nothing, nothing i tells you.

Jenius.

[Selah]

Okay, interesting stuff, still very much a "wait and see" situation. I just don't trust Blizzard to do what they say. And, I need more than 10.0 to be good. I need 10.1, 10.2, and consistent updates that aren't half a year or more apart.

[Xilurm]

This was actually pretty good. Maybe they should do more of the live ones if they're gonna answer more things than they usually do.

What was the problem with the Kalimdor book btw?

[chorx]

I’m surprised they’re shelving SL before BfA. They’re really unhappy with that content it seems.

Story
There is an epic ending that involves characters that we'll adventure along during the expansion.
The team wants player to feel a sense of optimism and hope for the dragons. You will care about who you are adventuring alongside and the lands.

Why should I care about Tyrande, Kalecgos and Wrathion as a Horde player?

And since when can Blizzard decide what I will care about? I don't care about these characters and this expansion. It's all Alliance and neutral focused, a total snorefest as a Horde player.

Literally nothing you said is correct based on the answers we got. Do you even read before you complain?

nice trolling (or addicted to being a victim idk ?)

Dracthyr: created by Neltharion, but they haven't got any spec related to the Black Dragonflight. Fair enough.

the deep breath showed in the trailer was moving the earth so maybe they introduced black, red and blue in the ranged dps

We know nothing about the full spell-kit behind the Evoker to make that sort of judgment/assumption. Defensives could be Black Dragon oriented, certain spells/abilities could have BDF flavor to it.

I legit don't understand why people associate the Black Dragonflight with 'Tank'.

Is it because Neltharion was the 'Guardian' of Earth?

Because Aegwynn, Medivh's Mother, was the 'Guardian' of Tirisfal and certainly couldn't be lumped together with a 'tanking' class.

[Eon Drache]

I'm sad we haven't seen any questions on something like the creation catalyst moving forward that gives non-raiders tier sets.

For M+? It's a recency issue.

Similar to Timewalking, last couple expansions are off limits because people have done them to death in the last few years already.

I actually think Legion/BFA/Shadowlands dungeon design is top notch and that they really took things up a level after Warlords and tuned content better than before.

Not that there aren't lingering issues (a couple mobs in Tazavesh still have ridiculous scaling, one doesn't have any scaling at all which is a bug, and I think the covenant power design is still pretty unbalanced, mainly in Necrotic Wake), but for the most part, they're great. I've also done them -to death-, so I'm glad they're mixing things up soon.

How are they shelving it?

Well who can like the disaster that Is SL to be fair.

You win some you lose some. We Alliance players were fed with Saurfang and Sylvanas bullshit for far too long.
