Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

1 hour to some annoucement?

No way the put alpha up without a preview of every class talent tree, right ?

Why not? First build could be just Evoker. First build could be few classes that got talents revealed. Finally, they could just release classes without bothering to put blue post for everyone. There is no rule.

BFA had issues, certainly. Shadowlands had many as well. If the state of SL during 9.1.5 was in at launch, my mind would be very different. In terms of story, I could sit here all day and go back and forth with people on it (I won’t give my opinion on whether I thought it was good or not).

I'll happily say that I thought the story of Shadowlands was lackluster. The cadence was ALL over the place and the resolutions were tepid at best. I can't say I felt strongly about BFA's story but my god did I love me some corruption gear

Today is my plopped into existence day, so we can with complete certainty say that today we'll get absolutely nothing.

Well you are absolutely wrong!!! You get a Happy Birthday from some random guy in Alabama.

Happy Birthday!!!!!

Not exactly the best example, but these bonuses made mages pick CS regardless in 9.2.

Kind of a bad example tbh because Comet Storm still only was marginally better in ST and worse in AOE. Even then, it didn't revolve around the talent choice at all, because the effect wouldn't depend on you having the talent or not.

Don't expect something today, that's the best thing to do

[Catastrophy349]

The only thing I expect, no, can count on is that my copium tank will need to be re-filled at a minimum of 40 minutes from now.

Yeah this is where I'm at. Not really counting on anything today, but I'll be happily surprised if there is.

Hoping for a new talent tree today!

If talents do come out, I'm expecting Warrior + Mage. How about you guys?

Here’s the thing:

1). A streamer said that a blue post for Alpha, similar to Shadowlands, is not guaranteed.

2). This is the first expansion since the new “Blizzard” is taking over in terms of them “listening” and “responding to feedback” more. So, it would sound alarms if we got an Ion post like that. Would be a great sign.

Can't describe my excitement, the selection is superb!!!

[Kiivar86]

Some body types too, while I'm sure there's many who won't be happy at least its options.

Also honestly I like them a lot more with this glimpse.

[Khaza-R]

Interesting stuff.

The armors definitely seems inspired the by OG dragonspawn models.
