Don’t worry, this isn’t a “Pls nerf X” thread… Just a few thing’s I’ve noticed and things I think would be awesome to implement into the game.
Barber Shop - I think this could be a good use of a gold sink for those wishing to change things up a bit. 50G for body type change, 5g hairstyle change etc
Self-Buffing Grace period in BG’s/STV - Please allow classes to at least self-buff free of mana cost when having just resurrected in a battleground or within the 20second resurrect window in STV. Certain classes consume a lot of mana + precious seconds each time they resurrect which is frustrating. Warlock for example costs over 50% mana just doing Demon Armor and Meta form.
Pets in BG’s - Pets resurrect with 50% health for some reason which is annoying and requires time + mana to regen them. Another annoyance for Soul Link Warlocks in particular.
STV “immune” buff - I’m really confused why Blizzard did not make players who have just been resurrected to be completely immune for the 20second duration. Trying to reset and regroup when you have traps on the ghost and CC still hitting you (e.g. Fears) is frustrating to say the least. I know that these debuff’s are removed within 1second but the fact that it happens in the first place baffles me.
Robes / Tunics - This is obviously a personal preference but when playing my caster classes, it feels and looks very odd being forced to use Tunic style armors. Could we have the ability to choose between these two options in future sets? My female Tauren druid is sad running around in leggings
What other changes would you readers also suggest? Let blizzard know below!
I hope Josh Greenfield and the team comes across this and takes these ideas into consideration.
Put a one-time only token to the STV vendor that will allow players to choose the set of racial abilities for their characters, regardless of the race they chose to create their characters as.
So the whole racial controversy is over.
Barber Shop shouldn’t be so expensive. Changing a character’s look isn’t a game-changing deal, so paying 50g for it is too much. Prices in WotLK Classic are ideal; they should be even lower here.
They could simply avoid making Tunics the best sets/BiS. That’s all. Nobody likes them on casters. Also reminder that mage T8 was terrible
Rebuffing/Regen/Sum being such a problem in STV is something I cannot fathom.
You don’t have the ability to really gather, fully sum/buff, reg, and then reengage unless you want to waste a stupid amount of time only to most likely die rather quickly again.
Lower the CD on Chronoboon. The WB’s are nice when leveling, but the 1hr cd is annoying. Yeye - I know, you can level without and all that. Would just be a QoL change.
You forgot to mention “give 100% mana discount and damage immunity after reviving while event is active, lasting 20seconds or until you attack someone” for rebuffing and stuff.
I think this could cause issues with classes that can stack racials such as Orc stun resist for example. I think every PvP’er would go for Orc Racial which could be problematic but maybe specific racials could be changed? Like Orc pet damage for example.
I like these ideas and would maybe promote more solo play. 50% HP could cause problems for healers as they would have to spend a lot more mana trying to top that health.
See the only responses I get here is the orc racial. Maybe it’s a proof that hardiness is the most OP racial in the game.
Yes, classes like warrior, warlock, priest etc. that has a stackable stun resist with orc racial is insane. It can go to 50% stun resist + spell resist chance so practically it is almost impossible to stunlock an orc and wins them most matchups only because of a passive racial.
Now, alliance has suffered from this for a long time so I see no problem implementing some parity for both factions.
I agree it is a strong racial, especially in PvP but only versus certain classes. Just like how a humans stealth detection is busted vs a rogue/druid for example. Unfortunately WoW is not balanced around 1v1 PvP and there will always be counters for each example.
It is by far the strongest racial in vanilla if you ask me. I would love to see the win rates of paladins and rogues versus orcs compared to other races. Should have been nerfed 20 years ago. What is imo the most annoying thing about it, is that it is so braindead. WOTF, EA, FW and SF at least require you to time it. Orc stun is just passive effect.
