This is a fun speculation thread. To lighten the tone and indulge our theories or realms of possibilities.
I’ve Split this into 3 sets of question options as the poll creation is limited. Pick which one you prefer.
Motivation is simple, I’m curious what people think
Question 1
What if Dracthyr were only available to 1 faction? Which should they join, Alliance or horde?
Most races are either one faction or the other, if this was the case what should they have done?
Question 2
If only one of Pandaren or Dracthyr would be in your faction, which would you pick?
These are the only two race available to both factions, in the case they weren’t and one went one way, which would it be?
Lore wise Pandas we’re skewed towards Horde and Dragons seem more alliance race bonded, but that’s usually irrelevant. Humans are suspicious of Dragons after Deathwing’s meddling and destruction - but then everyone should be after cataclysm, yet the orcs have mistreated dragons badly.
Which makes more sense? Which do you like?
Question 3
Would you prefer the Dracthyr forms to be two separate races, one new race in the draconicn form and an allied race in the visage form?
This isn’t so hard. Visage form could have been a humanoid race with dragon blood made with the dracthy - one being humanoid infused with draconic essence the other being draconic infused with humanoid.
I’m this case thought, Draconic would have no visage form, but maybe could take the form of a race of your choice similar to the Orb of deception - ie not customisable at all, and on a cool-down or out of combat. The trade off would be customisable gear in dragon form
Visage form allied race would be Evoker plus other classes, but Draconic form race would be Evoker only for now.
Question 4
Draconic form should have had a male and female distinct model
Well, this might be silly, but as all the above I am curious.
