Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Lorgar Aurelian]

Weren't they actually created for some other story? I'm pretty sure i saw them pop up before Mechagon in relation to some short-story or book.

Before the storm, they were “hired” by galaywix to experiment with azerite and are the reason the horde had weapons ready so far ahead of the alliance.

[Myradin]

Aren't you able to cancel and refund it right now anyway? There has to be more severe consequences, otherwise I don't see why its a thing they would ever have to disclose.

There isn't. As we already saw with WC3 Reforged.

I'm no legal expert, but it probably has something to do with keeping your customer informed and not just creating some nebulous "give us money and you'll have this eventually we swear!"

I don't know why people obsess over refundability if they don't make the initial deadline anyway. Most people who are willing to give their money in advance will end up buying the expansion anyway.

Anyone else got a beta update?

My 'favorite' part so far about this expansion is seeing people say 'I was hyped about BfA and Shadowlands, this expansion sucks compared to them'.

... My friend. Are we looking at the same game? Seriously, are we?

In seriousness, I'm very excited for professions and actual content.

You know I'd love to see a quest count because Dragonflight seems to have an insane number of quests.

I just have to say, I can see myself 10 years from now going back to the Dragon Isles just to fly around. Still doing that with Pandaria and Draenor

Just got it myself now.

What I enjoy most these days is being out in the world doing quests and farming professions, plus, of course, soloing old content for pets, mounts and transmogs. So I am really interested about the amount of side quests in DF, are there really a lot more than in other expansions? And most important, how good they are?

That's why I am asking for a count because they seem ENDLESS. The continent is massive and there are quests to do everywhere.

Cool! With that and plant farming I should be pretty entertained for 2023. Seriously, I do not know how people play multiple characters. I play A LOT and I have thousands of stuff to do yet.

And this is based on what exactly? Because the Dracthyr (Evoker) class fantasy is clearly centered around magic and not "real" hand-to-hand combat. The only thing where they are using their physical appearance in combat is when they're using their wings (and their tail, which is more of an afterthought though).

From doing the starter zone for Dracthyr not all of them are Evokers. Some NPCs refer to you as someone who decided to go for and finished the Evoker training and many of them refer to you as "Evoker" kinda like you would a Medic or Scribe.

So it's more than likely that not all the Dracthyr NPCs are Evokers but rather fighters etc etc.

Massive L by Blizzard on this one.

Instead of just... not fixing the bug and making everyone happy (there was an overwhelmingly positive response to this), they just double-down on it under the excuse of "Well, someone could buy the wrong armour type".

Baffling

Did you read the last part? It will be account wide. The only difference is that you need to log into a different character once you've unlocked it on your main.

Means you also need whatever currency it is to buy the item.

I think what he's referring too is the fact that you can no longer by the Plate ensemble on your cloth wearer to add to transmog later, people wanted the ability to do this but Blizz removed because some people are too simple to read what they buy.

They are account wide unlocks and can be purchased on your alts, literally the last sentence.

I think I understand you now, so if you unlock it on your cloth wearer you can log onto you plate wearer and buy the plate ensemble without needing the currency/rep to unlock it?

Yes, once unlocked on any character the cosmetic is unlocked account wide and can be purchased by your alts regardless of renown lvl.

That's pretty awesome tbh and fair.

Sure, and that's fine and all, but then you get to Currency requirements or other requirements, and it opens a whole other can of worms.

Might be alright for the DF release, but in the long term, making Ensembles redeemable by every type is just a more future-proof thing to do. Especially when the only reason not to do it is "Oh, someone might buy the wrong Ensemble".

Or Blizzard should just get the stick out of their asses and make it so every armour type can add every armour type to the Wardrobe.

Anyone have an idea when Dragonflight will launch? Trying to arrange time to play it, but don't know when I should slot it in.

[Shadochi]

the currency for the mentioned tmogs is literally something you get from almost every df activity from what I've noticed, so it shouldn't be a problem on alts and is farmable. IMO the issue arises for currencies that you can't really farm efficiently but you end up having huge amounts on your main and non on your alts. But at least in SL they seemed to have added for most of those currencies systems to transfer them to alts on a reduced rate
