We still haven’t seen the new trees, only a picture of the druid resto spec so far.
They have said they want to get the new talent trees out asap to get feedback in order to make sure feedback is received to during the development.
Are some currently baseline abilities gonna be moved to the talent trees, absolutely.
The current talent system only gave us a few choices so a lot of abilities and upgrades was just given as you level up since they couldnt be put into the talents.
We got these no matter what, even if we wouldnt use them.
If I get the choice to switch out ignore pain since it is a dps-loss for a fury warrior and pick another defensive ability that doesn’t ruin my rotation I would love that.
Some choices will be obvious picks atleast for some content.
Let’s say Pummel is one of those abilities moved to the talent tree, it is an obvious pick for pvp and m+. But if I am raiding? It might be possible for me to pick that point elsewhere if we have lets say a few DH who actually gain resources from interrupting, or a shaman who has a ranged interrupt on a shorter cooldown.
And even if we dont get anything new, just the fact that I would now be able to pick both the stun and double charge is a huge improvement.
Lets just be sure to give feedback and suggestions for improvement and possible additions when they release the alpha talent trees.
I made a thread about old abilities and traits I want to return here: What would you like to see return as part of the new talent system?
Feel free to add your wishes to give the developers as much inspiration possible for good talent trees with many possibilities.
