Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[enigma77]

Which classes will you go for in Dragonflight?

Will you go with one for each class? Each armour type? Each flight? Just the one? Each profession?

Same as always, Warlock.

[Aeluron Lightsong]

Same class as I usually am with my main. I might dabble with the Evoker class just to see what its like and the starter experience.

[Feali]

Bring out the chains then.

I thought we left Revendreth behind us.

Going with a hybrid class this time around because I will be mostly playing solo and it makes it easier to find groups if you can tank. Monk is my favorite right now, I just hope the talent tree will be good.

Don't know where else to complain so i'll do it here. Why aren't there any blue/purple skin color options for the visage forms?? Green Dragons have favored Night Elf forms for millenia, yet there's no purple skin tone available??

For the same reason why there are no orc, gnome, draenei, troll, tauren, etc. options.

Because they are neither Night Elves nor Green Dragons. None of the conventions apply to them.

This. It would just be so much easier if people could realize and accept this fact.

[Cheezits]

They definitely don't have lore restrictions for the visage forms on alpha. So they can and will be called out for being lazy, although it's clear the art team doesn't want to spend energy for the three players who want to be a gnome evoker. And I don't blame them.

Lore says they can be anything =/= we should spend the time to make them anything.

I'm quite sure they will allow the use of other races for the visage form down the line, together with other classes for the Dracthyr. The base lore is already there in the evoker intro zone.

To be fair they are created by Deathwing so really they are however he wanted to make them it seems. So Blizz could technically restrict it to whatever they want with little work. Otherwise completely agree.

Warlock talents in, Cooldown for Soar reduced to 4 minutes, 2 new Dungeons, and the Ohn'ahran plains

Meanwhile Monks and DHs...

[Atriel]

Warlock talents in, Cooldown for Soar reduced to 4 minutes, 2 new Dungeons, and the Ohn'ahran plains

And Soar is reduced by another minute on continents you have fully explored. 3 minute Soar seems like a good tradeoff for the speed reduction.

[Dracullus]

Too late, Asmon already had his tantrum, they must bring back 70,000% speed or THIS EXPAC IS DEAD ON ARRIVAL.

[Nightshade711]

3 minutes and the nerf is still a bit ridiculous.
Neither should exist on the Dragon Isles.

[Adoxe]

Cringe comment. Stop acting like Asmon is the only one who complained about it, and he (and others) should. It was a pointless nerf, that is still pointless. No, it won't kill the game (and no one claimed it would) but it is an anti-fun change. The cooldown was what people complained about before the speed change, there's no compromising with a change that should've already happened, now there's just two of them to complain about.

"Switching Talents and Talent Loadouts no longer requires being in a rested area."

Is this gonna last or its just for alpha testing ?!

[klaps_05]

Oh boy, here come the videos about the additional 20% flight speed nerf for dracthyr with the racial being changed. also pretty unacceptable to not have a post on each spec each week imo, we going back to "trust us guys it will be good" -> "sorry guys we ran out of time, we will adjust it in 10.1/10.2/10.3" -> "its a more complex issue we will revisit the spec in 11.0". given that trust-levels between players and devs are at an all time lowest, i dont understand why they dont post at least SOMETHING about each spec.

Its not really cringe when asmon is well known for pushing the rage in the WoW community. Also I haven't seen any decent reason why soar should stay low instead of what it is now apparently(On Alpha)

Because you can only be an half elf.

The wording makes it sounds like it's gonna stay but we will see.
