10.2 is likely the last major patch unless there's 10.3. I don't know how much "later" in Dragonflight they could be talking about.and again, later in dragonflight does not mean 10.2

Ah got ya, thanks.
The Warglaives of Azzinoth are still classified under the sword weapon type lmao
They have to leave it like that or no one but demon hunters could equip them anymore. Makes sense really. Demon hunters got their own special access to them anyway.
Actually I can't tell if you were laughing at Blizz still classifying them as swords, or at Teriz for claiming they are glaive weapon type.
Teriz that link to the legendary says the item is a sword. That is what I assume the person you are arguing with is trying to point out. Warglavies were not a weapon type (i.e. now/sword/wand/etc) until Legion pre-patch when DHs became available
Edit: late to dunking on him as everyone beat me to it
So Illidan, the archetypal Demon Hunter doesn't use warglaives simply because the game classified them as swords before Legion?
Hilarious.
The point is that an item is not a feature. Also I would appreciate it if you can find me those warglaives that were in WoD alpha.
Yeah you're missing the point entirely. The argument is that we didn't get warglaives until the demon hunter class. That's false. While the Warglaives of Azzinoth were classified as swords, pretty much everyone acknowledged that they were warglaives.

So are the Warglaives of Azzinoth swords or warglaives?
11.0 expansion feature - all weapon types are now glaives
There now we are back to actually speculating on this thread
Gladly.
And yes, they were not classified as warglaives, they were swords, and the introduction of the glaive weapon type, and demon hunters, is very much a feature.
Teriz, seriously, this is pathetic.

Welcome to wow, I know wow may be new to you but the warglaives of azzinoth, were in fact swords.
