Illidan could fly using his wings, so why not the player DH? Yeah, yeah, Illidan is one of the most powerful characters in the entire canon, so? To that I ask: It doesn't actually take much to fly in the Warcraft universe, now does it? When you consider everything that is capable of it, flight becomes less special from an in-universe point of view. Flight is sort of a menial task for the average Azerothian, I mean you can take a heckin' flying animal taxi to travel between most locations around the world(s).
So I think DHs should eventually get their own version of [Soar]. The following is my own quick, perhaps misguided idea lol who knows! Tell me what you think.
[Infernal Jet] - Demon Hunter Ability
Manifest demonic wings, leap up and unleash a downward blast of chaotic energy that launches you into the air.
Infernal Jet compared to Soar
- Equal cast time and cooldown, slightly lower max speed, slightly worse directional control
- Pitching down builds momentum quicker, pitching up and using [Skyward Ascent] both drain less momentum
- As you gain speed your wings start to glow and grow distorted by Fel/Chaos, with increasingly intense particle effects trailing behind you
- At high speed you may resemble a Felfire Hawk blazing through the air, at max speed an Infernal Meteor streaking across the sky
- Glyphs for this ability could reskin it to be smokey and shadowy like Illidan's form in Nighthold, orange and yellow fire like [Glyph of Crackling Flames]
