Developer Q&A with Ion Hazzikostas - Battle for Azeroth

[Nnyco]

ye why add new customization by races we already got, lets add new races with 2-3 options instead

[McNeil]

So I just tuned in.. have they only talked about allied races or what?

[Killmaim Deathbringer]

this Q and A is so boring so far

[Unholyground]

The story of BfA details Zandalari Paladins and this arc could lead to Zandalari Paladins. We have to wait and see.

Hopefully a no since they gave time to address why they couldn't in that quest.

I feel like the quest to unlock the Zandalari will give us Paladin, they are being tight lipped about it because they don't want Alliance cry babies to shit themselves.

[Skirdus]

Allied Races

• Class balance on factions is more linked to lore than equality.

Well that explains nightborne priests

2 years from now - "Guilds were only used as a means to hand out loot, without master loot we feel guilds are no longer needed, pugs is the way forward"

Again one of those Q&As where nothing really gets spoken about. Or it just might be that there are so many people playing this game that ask such stupid questions...

[Katsutomai]

Azerite Armor modifications are going to fill the new abilities gap.

... So you just verified you're taking any type of true character progression away. That's great. Keep moving further and further away from the original RPG experience.

The fuck are you talking about. Azerite is max level character progression.

[RangerDaz]

I was hoping for an interesting Q&A interview, especially for new features of BfA.

After seeing it, I got the impression that it was one of the most bland and uninteresting ones they have done.

[Ophenia]

BfA will be similar to Legion in terms of alt-friendliness.

... Oh. Really.

[RangerDaz]

That would be a huge slap in the face

That would be insulting their playerbase lol

I doubt they would deny it after so much lore development, especially with all the $$$$$ they will get with race changes

[Katsutomai]

That fucking goes away next goddamned Expansion. Just like Artifact Weapons. Use your damned head.

[Mhyroth]

So Ion basically confirmed an AP-like Knowledge level thing for Azurite.
Those nay-sayers here on the Forums can crawl back in their cave.

[Arkura]

... Oh. Really.

Tbh it aint that bad now if you dont take into account the legendaries wich wont even be a thing next expansion so yeah it became instantly more alt friendly by not having legendaries to grind.

[AmazonDruid]

More customization options for non-Allied races are not planned on the near horizon.

So orc gotta go to orthopedics and be Upright.

But Nelf still can't have a decent EYEBROWS. The fuck blizz...

I love when my eyebrows pierce through my helmet

[cuafpr]

soooo RIP alts continues :/ was hoping that would change at least.

[Varitok]

You can really tell Ion was a lawyer, The way he says 17 paragraphs worth of words to convey one sentence worth of information.

[slowbro202]

I'm a little confused by this section:

Personal Loot
Personal Loot is the desired loot rule moving forward.
Most raids used master loot for tier which is not in BfA.

Is that saying master loot is going away?
