With Training Grounds taking over for Comp Stomp, Will there be more than just those 3 BGs you showcased earlier? Also will achievements be obtainable for the available BGs in this new pvp form similar to how Arathi Basin achievements are obtainable in Comp Stomp?

Questions:

  • When enhancement shaman will be a melee class, rather a “melee” elemental shaman (top dmg is a ranged spell lol)?
  • 2 handed enha support when?
  • Shaman tank spec when?
  • will we see more frequent balances, or we can expect balance 1-2 times / seasons and deal with it?
  • Any plan to changing the m+ weekly reward structure? The slotmachine rng praying is not fun at all.
  • plans for linear power progression? Login each week to do 8 mythic dungeon (if you do that, like majority of the people in the game) or every 2 week for crafted item is not fun.

Why are valorstones still in the game?
Also please can you make gearing up from M+ better. Either a currency vendor where you get a token after completing each M+, then you can buy a trinket/weapon etc. at the cost of for example 15 tokens?
That or give more than 2 random items for a whole run.

How often can we use the Prey system each week/reset?

Cause I can delve at any time I want, and fill my vault. Can I use the Prey system in a similar way to fill my vault or is this more like a one off weekly thing? And I don’t mean fill it with tier 1 stuff from the basic level, like you would from the simple Open World content. I mean proper item level on par with Delves. Can I just do the Prey system to fill my vault that way?

I have a question with regards to PvP, is there any plans in place at the start or in the near future about a possible revamp/rework to the rating system for rated PvP?

  • Any plan on reworking the guild bank log page ? currently there is no way to filter (who gave, took, used to repair…) so it’s not usable to actually track
  • The cost to repair our gear had never been that high. A full night progress on a boss could cost up to 10k gold or more per character, which is really expensive for some people. Could it be a thing to have a discount if you use the guild bank ?
  • being able to play with ally and horde player is great. However, not being able to wisp someone waiting in my lfg waiting list or not being able to dm the owner of a lfg list is always frustrating. If a player is in list, it could be the same rule as being in the groupe and you can dm them.

  • Are we going to see playable Amani Trolls at some point in Midnight? (or Revantusk trolls)
  • Will we see Vol’jin storyline move forward in Midnight as a loa?
  • Will we see new character customization options like red skin Orcs?
  • In undermine you created a drive system for ground mounts will we see this system evolve into a new mounting system for other ground mounts in other zones?
  • To fix the inbalance between factions with the Void Elf Demonhunter combo can we expect Blood Elf Druids or Forsaken Paladins soon?

  1. What changes to the pvp reward system are you going to make?
  2. What are the reasons we are not getting the same reward system as MOP classic?
  3. Are the hero talents going to be build out like actual talent trees in the coming xpacs?
  4. Are you going to ask community input for the coming class changes?

With the implementation of the tmog 2.0 revamp, will we have the ability to toggle tmogging items individually still or will that be replaced entirely by the new system of only transmogging item slots that then override any appearance?

Carrying various spare items such as tmogged Heirlooms in your inventory is a very common and useful tool for Roleplay and as it stands the revamp will be quite a blow to convenience; for it seems we might need to dash to a tmog vendor or devout entire outfit slots to minor variants should someone wish to change weaponry in-character instead of simply equipping a different item.

Dragonflight was a fantastic expansion in regards to player options - expanding both appearance and class choices. With only elves set to get a new class in Midnight - any plans to let other races take part of expanded appearance/class options?

Will there be more character customization options added for existing races especially for Void Elves?

Right now, Void Elves have fewer hairstyle options, hair colours, face markings, and accessories compared to most other races. Many players would love to have more ways to make their characters feel unique, whether fully embracing the void aesthetic or going for a softer, high-elf inspired look.

Additionally, are there any plans to give players the option to toggle the visual effects of Hero Talent specializations on or off (for example, Oracle Priest or Sunfury Mage visuals)? Some players love the look, while others would prefer to keep a more classic appearance without losing the gameplay benefits.

hello,

New players often find leveling frustrating: gear rewards are weak, scaling prevents a real sense of progression, this sometimes gives the impression that you’re not progressing at all or becoming weaker while leveling. Are there any plans to revisit the leveling experience so that new players can feel more meaningful progression, receive better gear rewards, and experience a clearer sense of growing power?

I’ve seen that the new Devourer Demon Hunter will be getting a full set of new void-themed spell animations, even for abilities that are normally shared across other specs. Could we expect similar treatment for other classes and specs in the future?

For example, it always feels odd when my Shadow Priest casts a very radiant-looking Power Word: Shield. I completely understand the importance of maintaining class identity, but at the same time, many players want their character to visually reflect their chosen fantasy and aesthetic. Since we already have the glyph system, could it be expanded to cover more visual customization for spells and abilities?

Also, on the topic of Shadow Priests specifically: many of our spell visuals are still unchanged since 2004. Are there any plans to update or modernize Shadow Priest animations?
