    Warglaives of Azzinoth. A massive punch in the face.



    • Wasn't it enough that Demonhunters already have their own Weapon type unusable for any other class?
    • Wasn't it enough that they were the first and only class ever being able to transmogrify a Legendary for years?

    I am honestly upset about this.
    Players that actually wielded both glaives back then when the Black Temple was the current raid got really screwed over.

    It's a shame blizzard favoring a specific class, again.

    On that note, this fits perfectly.



    What are your opinions on it?

    Changing from "slap" to "punch" does nothing to nullify the fact that using that phrase instantly invalidates your argument.

    I'm a DH player and I disagree with Blizzard's logic. I don't really need to feel special for farming a decade old pair of legendaries and then doing a painfully boring timewalking raid. If they really want to keep a separation between the original glaives and the ones DH can transmog, then, I dunno? Make like a pair of HD Warglaives for Demon Hunters like Rogues got HD Thunderfury and let everybody else mog the original ones.

    It's a transmog model, you'll survive. Giving classes some niche flavor is a good thing, not all classes should or need to be 100% even on everything.

    The whole point of these changes was to make legendaries transmoggable by the classes that can use them.
    Warriors, rogues, monks and demon hunters can use them, so they should be able to transmog it.

    End of story.

    Warglaives are a weapon that only Demon Hunters can use...sorry you want to pretend you're a Demon Hunter while not actually playing one but some things should be exclusive...

    It's literally the only legendary my Frost DK can use and they decided to give it away to the DH for no reason at all. Really flimsy excuse.

    A transmogg model that is the only one handed glaive that can be wielded by another classes other than Demonhunters.

    There's no real logical reason for the restriction.
    Demonhunters already have a lot of niche features no other classes have, he doesn't need more.

    Except the Warglaives are usable by 5 or so classes.

    By 5, yes. Warrior, Rogue, Death Knight and Monks.... Not to forget the obvious Edgehunters.
    They actually updated the glaives in WotLK and Mop to accommodate the new classes.

    The logic I suppose is that only DH can use glaives, and the Warglaives are only classified as a sword because glaive wasn't a weapon class back then. Sure you can technically use them, but not in a lore sense.

    They can get behind Dragonwrath owners. That mount needs to be detached from equipping the staff.

    Especially in a Lore sense, a Warrior for example should be able to wield them. He is, by Blizzard, labeled as a weapon master.
    Furthermore, many night elve npcs already wield the 3 bladed nightelf glaive variant and are clearly no Demonhunters.
    Also don't forget the Silvermoon Guards, who also wield a glaive.

    Even in WC3, Huntress' and Mage Hunters wielded Glaives.

    Blizzard is full of flimsy excuses for dumb decisions as of late.

    Would be pretty cool if it just became a mount transform like the Sandstone Drake.

    Sans the ability to carry another player.

    Similarly would be cool to use the rogue dagger wings again.

    its literally not, and aren't dhs the only ones who can use warglaives? even if they are grandfathered in as "swords"

    and the whole xmog legendaries is just a gimmick to get people to resub for this horrible patch/expansion

    Imagine, 10 years from now, when you're an adult and life has actual consequences and your time has tangible heft...and you remember back to that day you got really, really upset over this stupid shit.
