Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

Sorry, they're busy catering to Hunters and Hunters alone, no place for Druids.

Weird. Mages, probably most busted class on ptr release, just got major update. Locks got a little smaller.

I'm quite glad that they've been updated almost all classes trees. I'm expecting druids to get an update soon™ and to be changing a lot from the philosophy they worked on for their first iteration.

I'm pretty disappointed by the monk class tree by the way, their capstone talents don't feel very impacting nor interesting. But I'm sure they will top that easily as they can always just make the status into a node and ignore ww statue, move this node way up in the tree and bring some more flavourful capstones

1. I was pretty sure my post didn't require the /s tag, but apparently it did.

2. After weeks Mage and Warlocks got a nice update post, yes. Other classes like Druids, Priests or DKs are waiting months now to see some major changes (or changes) at all, whereas Hunters have gotten like a dozen or more blue posts and several talent tree updates. I think Hunters alone got more focus than all the three classes I mentioned above combined.

When you were the first class to get the new talent tree and to this day you're waiting for any updates or changes, it just feels wrong.

What do you mean? Everyone knows Hunters will be able to tame Druids soon so they will have to get an effective tree to give the truly authentic hunter experience.

Imagine a Hunter taming a Boomkin which can summon treants... Matryoshka in WoW.

I used to joke that in vanilla Beasmaster had more meaningful talents for pet damage than Feral did for cat damage. A druid would have been better off as a Hunter pet than spending points on Feral.

Yes, it did. Considering your posting history of complaints. Pretty sure it was a legit jab at Blizz you are now try to hide under /s. Because otherwise it means you do realize they are working on all classes, right?

Yeah because I'm the only one complaining about the lack of feedback for several classes like Druid and DK, lol. Not trying to hide anything as it's - as you said - a legit jab.

[Lahis]

When will they do something with druid tree? Holy shit other classes get constant updates and druid has got absolutely nothing. The disparity is insane.

Druid designer has left the company, so...

Again, only a rumour.

That explains Malfurion's impending demise.

Dk had a blue post stating that things are about to change and that we should expect a list of . This was published a few weeks before the latest update, that we are to see carried to alpha in a few days, was announced. I don't know what you're talking about, this is just impatience on your part.

Druids do not have the same treatment and it can surely be viewed as risky to some players but I think that seeing the treatment of other classes should be reassuring enough to understand that changes are coming to make ot more inline with what other classes will be able to experiment.

Dont have alpha access myself but has anyone tried the mage tower challenges on alpha with the new talent trees to see if they are easier or harder? I have a few classes I want to get the sets on but this close to the expansion idk if it would make more sense to wait or not.

Honestly I really hope they are easier with Dragonflight. The scaling was way too hard compared to the version we had at the end of Legion.

For real lol? We are screwed then if that's the case.

Well, we had disabled leggos and covs in SL for some reason.

Do you think he was the only at Blizzard capable of designing a class? If he even left..

It's not reassuring that druid has not received any update not knowing whether they have already assigned a new dev or not.

[Makabreska]

Like, first of all it's a rumour given by the streamer who apparently was notified by someone at Blizz, yet of course peeps are saying it's 100% legit. So did DH dev also leave? Cuz we didn't have DH talents AT ALL. Also, do people think that every class is designed by a single person, and if said person leaves, then all work stops completely?

[huth]

Nobody knows. People just keep repeating a poorly substantiated rumour as fact.
