DH 3rd spec main weapon

How do you guys feel about the spec still using glaves while being a mid-ranged?
We need to start something to make them wear 2h scyhe or something, glaves look on them VERY odd

I was against range dps with cast time etc but i have to say i am really liking the mid range and the way its look like so far. I think the glaives are core identity for dh in general and had very ranged like theme to begin with. I like to have big scythe when playing my dk or lock, but not sure this is what i wanted to have as dh. Warglaives look mor agile theme IMO.
BTW, in the start of legion there is a she-dh with scythe, so there was an opening… And yet i like it the way it Blizzard has decided to take it for now…

I wonder if he’ll be treated like Frost DK, with the option to play 2x 1h or 2h. After all, from this short trailer, it’s clear he uses 2h animations.

There was some Illidari using a 2h Scythe in the Legion questing experience - i dont recall her name. But it would be cool and fit the mid-range thing, since a Scythe has a significant range and it in line with reaping souls.

Also the new ability for devourer looks exactly like a spin with a two-hander from melees, so many there is a way for devourer using polearms

According to last interviews they will not use 2h scythes (polearms), it will be visuals for some abilities though in metamorphosis. I wonder though, new spec will be INT based and rn all the weapons are stat specific, will they implement the several stats to the weapons depending on spec/class like it is with the armour, or will the just add glaives with int separately with the glaives with agi. The 2nd option looks weird to me, to have a 1 type of weapon class specific also divided in 2 by stat.
I do think they will be overtuned for players to want to play them and there will be no shortage of… but still…

I might use polearms/scythes, we do not know much yet but in the showcase, the aimation for the attack reap had a 2h attack animation, so you never know. I will keep my fingers crossed.

Yeah i saw that… looked so bad… they dont like making new animations for us it seems :frowning:

Bro, I got kind of disappointed because I was looking forward to farming Argus’ scythe to use it with the new spec, and I saw the Soul Hunters boss using it, so I assumed that too… Sadge

We should use Bow or a Gun :smiley: only class can roll for it are hunters.
There must be a change.
