Keep Class Halls Relevant

Separating the races is a bit 30’s…

I never said other races can’t go there too.

Just that the area should be themed around them. Doesn’t even have to be a capital.

A smaller village is already enough.

That’s actually a pretty legit idea. They’ve already gone back and added characters such as that Draenei pirate looking fella in Rogue orderhall. Would be a really cool way to make content out of new additions, instead of just “yeah the devs decided everyone can be warlock now” (still bugs me that one).

I think when implementing something like that they wouldn’t just randomly add all these things without any kind of introduction for the new players, or reintroduction for the rest of us. You know, we log in one day quest pops up with slightly different quest based on having played during Legion or no. New players get a more thorough tour upon arrival, whereas the rest of us get a little “yeah I remember where everything, just show me what’s new” option.

I have the impression that canonically, we’re already been “demoted” as players. At least us DKs are technically being led by Bolvar and Darion. Player dks are being referred to as “death lord” in some specific quests (like the intro to SL quests) but I think this is more of a acknowledgement to the player not an actual title. I for sure don’t think it makes sense we’re the leaders of the orderhalls… They’ve luckily toned down our personal importance this time around. It was getting more silly than Daneris’ million tittles…

Death Lord, Champion of Azeroth and Maw Walker, can you go kill 10 boars and fetch me some tusks for 20 gold? Thank you bye. :rofl:

It would certainly be a welcome surprise. Blizzard has this unfortunate habit of spending immense amounts of time and effort on creating interesting features and beautiful locations, only to inevitably drop all of it into the bin after an expansion comes to its end. Sometimes even before that point.

Asides of being inexcusably wasteful, it’s just a shame to see some of the better features effectively abandoned.

To get round that, you could have a class hall in each expansion capital. They could be the same design but have different NPCs/activities.

There was a degree of this in Vanilla, Paladins (and Priest) would visit Stormwind Cathedral to get some class quests and train spells. This was a good feature, it was immersive and added to the class fantasy.
There is no reason to say that we have to use the Legion Order Halls for all classes.
Rogues could either us SI:7 in Stormwind or Ravenholdt Manor.

I’d forgotten that. I can remember either my paladin or one of my priests having to fight something/someone in the crypt under the Cathedral. Actually, if Vanilla it would’ve been my paladin. I liked that - immersive and a special bit of story for that class.

Maybe they should put permanent class hubs in eastern kingdoms /kalimdor together with the incoming world rework, which should always stay relevant in the story. It could also be integrated into leveling and include a class tutorial for new players

I like the idea of Valdrakken but as a city the layout just feels weird to me, much prefer Dalaran. Its easier to navigate and feel more logical having certain shops/trainers near eachother.

That said I wouldn’t object to a Silvermoon revamp (graphics and layout) for the Horde to chill for a while either. Same for Ironforge really.

I’m all for them adding new Class focused content.

But as for Legion Class halls. There is no need to resurrect old content, when they can create something new.

Honestly, for warriors I’d rather see a more down-to-earth class hub with barbarians/etc. … What I’ve seen here doesn’t really fit my imagination of warriors, but I guess other people might like it more. My objections aside, they can just reuse the assets and copy paste them anywhere, not seeing an issue with that as long as they expand on it with time and keep it relevant

Only if you did Legion. I made a DK in Shadowlands, didn’t go there and Acherus is still in EK for Runeforging.
