Complexity has dropped significantly with each new class introduced. DK had 3 rune types, different stances, and a lot going on in regards to other classes at the time. Then monk came out. Still fairly complex. Average I guess vs other classes. Then we got dh. The mongo 3 button spec. I hope Evoker isn't a 4th step down in the complexity department. I want a class that feels fun and complex. Not vanilla holy pally.
This post: "I know nothing new so i'm just gonna guess and call it an impression(of something which i have not experienced yet)"
yeah I wanna know more about the dragonflights' powers. the blue flight was/is arcane. and the dragons come from elementals. so the difference between arcane magic and elemental magic is kind of important. i hope blizz tells us more about this. i didnt know that the blue flight was ever associated with frost magic.
Dracthyr looks so mid.
this heal/dps meta is such 20century... why still have distinct dps and healer speci feel all dps should have some minor heal spells (with long time cast)while healeurs should have more dommage powerthe weaker one life is, the less dps it producesfight should have more windows with boss's dommage reduction or dommage amplification (or because of boss capacity, or player special spell, or special fight event mechanic)so dps should have to think ahead when they can go crazy, versus time to self-heal or help otherthe more dommage you take, the dps you do, the more healing has to be done instead of dps, then you meet the enrage time xDi guess quite complex to balance, but hey, it is a full time job PS. while i understand the lore, very sad this new class ewoker is only available to 1 race, why that race can't be other class... (developer laziness?)
This is some MMO-Champion level writing and speculation. I expect better from a WoWhead "article".
I feel like they missed the mark entirely here. They could have had 4 specs based on the flight/aspsect instead of creating a creature that somehow can use powers from all flights simply because an aspect made them.......And now that they have been "discovered" or "wakened" or whatever the hell made them suddenly appear in Azeroth, now they just choose whether to be alliance or horde. Makes no sense.Why not just make the Drakonid race (that's been in WoW for YEARS) fill this role?And why can't they use powers from the black dragon flight? I know they are here to stay but DAMN. At least make their humanoid form stay in combat if you choose.
Can't see this not being part of some busted 2 class niche groups. So no matter what happens, it will always have that going for it.DH tank, DH/Evoker DPS, Evoker heal. I can't wait to see the BG chaos as the slow/landlocked classes try to keep up with these mobile monsters.
Looking at Blizzard's ability to make specs work normally I'm extremely sceptic. The character model looks rancid too.... MW monk was meant to be a mobile healer when it came out and look where it ended up.... I really like the idea of making new stuff but when it comes to implementation Blizzard is way below expectation.
When will there be news about the redesign of this race?
I have no doubt that it'll be busted. Either because they want it to be for the class to catch on, or just through some overlooked interaction or whatever.I also have no doubt that they will continue to absolutely shaft the "healing" healers. As in, the healers that are supposedly brought for throughput rather than throughput AND utility. I'm generally not a fan of homogenization, but it's more than stale at this point that certain healers just get permanently stamped with the "Nope" stamp of inferiority because they don't have DR raid CDs, and Blizzard refuses to do anything about it. Just give each healer some kind of DR at this point. It's beyond stupid not to.
As long as the dragon form looks the way it looks I won't be able to stomach playing this class. Once they change it I will be happy to give it a try, but any talk about how it plays etc. is pure speculation at this point.
I'm so excited to finally have a hero class with a healer spec :o
We need a new class for all races. Not impressed with Godzuki. Would like it if all current races could become this dragon some how and each race have their own additional bonus trait.
