Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Local Ardenweald Faerie]

Hmm I thought Ion said they weren't working on secondary professions, but maybe Cooking is special since it's so integral to endgame and the economy.

Plot twist:

cooking becomes a primary specialization

I mean it's going to exist so they are introducing it to testing but it's not going to have the depth that primary professions do
For example the meat dropped by mobs and fish don't have quality so it's unlikely quality for cooking will exist

I wonder what it would look like if that was the case. Probably way less focus on actual food buffs.

Only if we got three primaries.

[Gurahk]

I'm liking these weekly updates, definitely much more exciting than previous alphas and betas.

The next class: Cook.

Specs: Vegan (healing), Pescetarian (tank), Omnivore (dps)

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

Very surprised that Uldaman is part of the first dungeons.

Will be interesting to see the status of Broadcasttext and what not.

I think Vegans are clearly the tanks. They have the taunt.

My only question is does my cooking hat toy become a real piece of gear again for the revamp? And does it keep its buff?

We do have plenty of profession gear already. I do hope we can at least use some of them with the new system.

[Worldshaper]

Nah, they're ranged int-based DPS. They have the brains.

Neh, the unwarranted superiority complex makes em great dps.

Fishing hat, boots, and tons of poles. Underlight angler needs updated to work with this system if we earned it.

Not just one of the first dungeons, it's THE first dungeon. We're getting it in the pre-patch before the expac even launches.

[Makorus]

It sounds like the prepatch dungeon is a scaled up version of the original Uldaman.

"Level 60 Revamp of the original Uldaman" vs the new Uldaman being a completely different wing.

[Worldshaper]

Neh, the unwarranted superiority complex makes em great dps.

I'm not a vegan (just a pescatarian), but sacrificing some pleasure for your taste buds (meat) for the greater good (protecting the environment and avoiding unnecessary suffering for animals) seems like a pretty great thing. Doesn't sound "unwarranted" to me. Anyway, mega off-topic.

I hope get get specializations for several professions tonight! I gotta decide if I need multiple alts per prof or just the one.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

I mean I always assumed that the pre-patch content was the opening of the area up to the dungeon entrance and not the dungeon itself.

[Khaza-R]

I would agree. The way they worded it is kind of vague but that sounds much more like a pre-patch event then doing an early release of one of the new dungeons.

[8bithamster]

As a vegan myself that sounds like an extremist wearing veganism as camouflage, the mantra is to cause as 'little suffering as practically possible". It's not a carte blanche to think animal lives are worth killing humans for. :P

I'd shoot a bear charging at you if I had to, nesingwary style.

yea, except the vegans I talk to are the:

Wear a shirt "it's okay to shoot humans to save animals"
Have to talk about being vegan 24/7, it's their whole personality

Everyone makes different choices, acting superior because somehow someone thinks that animal lives are important and that the whole world can magically change to fit a vegan lifestyle.. that's the blind arrogance I mean

[Berkilak]

I'm very interesting to see how much Support is added back to Shaman. That is why I originally rolled the class, but it was gutted of those functions. But the word "support" seems to be in vogue right now with Dracthyr, so I hope the original WoW Support class gets equitable treatment.

Same as those stoners who just talk about weed and being high as their personality. And they're the same thirty years out of high school - little time capsules of high school immaturity.
