Break in case of emergency.
I thought it was Starshards?
It’s both! I forgot to mention Starshards, my bad.
Shame on yoooou!
They should add them back as replacements for some spells as workable.
Who wants Purge the Wicked as a nelf, when you can have Starshards?!
Arguably already seen some racial stuff with all the portal mages in Stormwind and Orgrimmar, too.
Starfall for Night Elf Priests iirc, aswell?
It’s not the players fault that the devs make questionable and bad choices.
I thought the same way. I didn’t quit suddenly one day. I was on again/off again for about half a year before I finally stopped.
The three things that are central to RP for me are; a character I’m invested in, good people to RP with and a good setting. The setting is the stage you perform on, unfortunately the literary arsonists at blizz wrecked the stage over the course of BFA and Slands.
I was left with only two out of the three things I need for an enjoyable RP experience. So my will to RP in WoW died a slow death over the course of about seven months.
DF looked at in isolation, I’d call it mediocre perhaps I’d even call it good. If it was right after Legion it’d be fine but it’s following a double expac train wreck. It’s an ok expac but ok just isn’t enough to make up for or fix the damage. The metaphorical stage is still a mess and I can’t bring myself back while its like that.
Oh hey, exact same boat here!
Arcane has been viable for other reasons. As “iconic” as RoP is, it’s a really bad ball and chain for the class that turns certain fights into an utter pain.
We already saw some initial ptr changes meant to make up for removal of the rune (overall dmg % increase), now mages will actually be able to use their toolset and move around rather than try to optimize uptime on an ability which was a massive pain in the butt for a lot of people.
I mean, sure it looks good. It’s just really bad from the gameplay perspective when it comes to doing actual content where you need to move. Good luck with your RoP on bosses like Raz, Diurna, Dathea, so on and so on. Fights nowadays are a tad too dynamic to let a caster sit in a spot and fire spells away.
I’d also note, that the grass isn’t necessarily greener elsewhere at the moment. I took a break from WoW for years, invested in a different MMO and then saw the exact same problems that drove me away creep in there as well.
Then I realised that between the two of them, I actually preferred the aesthetics and playable race options in WoW and so made a return.
Solution: Rune of Power toy.
Then everyone’s happy
Lasts 6 seconds. 12 Hour cooldown.
The ol’ Blizzard special. Can’t have people actually getting to enjoy their toys.

Hmmmm, so Samia Inkling is a black dragon. Well I guess it makes sense, since she was stuck on Outlands with Sabellian too, though wouldn’t have minded her remaining a human that helped Sabellian with leading the flight, but we already know alot of Outlands Black Dragons aren’t corrupted and returned to Azeroth.
wishlist
SHAMAN
- Elemental Customisation in barber shop same as Warlock Pet
- Ascendance like Dathea Ascended, I mean if she can why can’t we?
- Decay option to replace fire spell. We should be more intelligent than Gnolls to harness it. Now with Undead Shaman potentially being a thing in the future that would fit really well as well.
- Remember the old visual effect from classic where u were dropping 4 totems around you? I wouldn’t mind seeing a version of it.
- Flight Spirit Form. Eagle, Carrion Birds, whatever but give shaman a flight spirit form. Highmountain Tauren and Wildhammer would appreciate it.
- You know all that great visual spell effect for wind, shock, lava wielded by the primalist? Shamans needs an update.
PRIEST
- Better Shadowflame glyph effect. Look at the drustvar grimoire toy. That kind of effect would be hell cool.
- Discipline reworked as a support healer class
- A better understanding of shadow magic. What is it? Are we cultist of the old god or we deep dive into the cosmic void forces? You know all those spells Sarkareth wields in the raid. That’s what I would like to see for Shadow Priest which would also fit well the concept of Priestess of the Moon for NELF. I mean if we take the Naaru as an example for light, their “shadow” version is not old god related. Is pure void, darkness.
- If the cosmic void is not a think, I’m still hoping for a “ghostly” effect to replace shadow to align with the death magic and give priest the chance to play a Death Speaker / Soulpriest etc.
MAGE
- Water to replace frost magic spell, Tidesages in BFA and now the pirate mage in Forbidden Reach. That would be a nice touch.
Class, race and spell customisations?
pet customisations? Mounts?
If they put books/glyphs in there to change spell apearence, I’d be happy.
Depends.
I’d be sad if it was one spell at a time.
Happy if it’s every spell of this class/specc.
I’m having doubts it’d be spell customization as there’s no UI or toys that do that. We instead got Glyphs and buffs.
I see more chance of it being Dragon mount-related.
