Sooo survival is pretty neat but axes would be cool

So I know not everyone love the melee survival spec but its actually the only reason I have a hunter, I find it super cool, even though the numbers are kind of iffy I really enjoy the spec thematically, etc.

But wouldn’t it be even cooler if it could dual-weild axes? Like Rexxar or Nathanos?
I mean at least for cosmetic reasons? You don’t want to end up like the 1handed/2handed fdk situation.

Idk I think it’d be pretty neat

Yes it would. In my case I’d prefer 2 swords, but axes would be cool.

Dual wielding is probably the most requested feature by SV mains.

Totally, let us duel wield.
I’ve said for the longest time, either let us duel wield, or just lift mog restrictions to let us swap between single 2h and duel wield

I got so many cool axes and fist weapons.

Bonus points if we can replace radioactive chicken yeets with throwing our weapons or hatchets.

Same here bro :smiley: and always good to see the SV community enjoying what we have regardless of the dps meter bs!

And yes, we used to dual wield back then, Idk why it went out, and hopefully they will get back to their senses and let us use it cause damn I wanna try some axes or swords or mix both :smiley:

Probably because of balance or something, either way all they have to do is change the mog restrictions, I mean the tech is already in the game, my Prot Pala has the 1H+Shield mogged into Ashbringer, a 2H sword.

Nah the reason is animations.
What little SV animations there are anyway. Same reason you cant duel wield as an arms warrior. Because there special move is tied to that weapon catagory.

At least that’s my theory.

As far as I am aware SV doesn’t have a single unique attack animation? It shares its melee attacks with dk/pala/warr

Pretty certain that they could just copy over the fdk/1handed/2handed animations to SV and it wouldn’t be an issue.
I could be extremely wrong tho :stuck_out_tongue:

There are animations btw, and we used to dual wield back in msv before rsv became a thing.

We do, we have the crossbow when using serpent and kill and a little polearm when slowing down, and I believe Blizz stores it’s old data as any other company worldwide, meaning that they just need to recycle it if they wanna give us back the dual wielding.

Oh aye, aint saying there aren’t animations. I’m just saying the reason we haven’t got it is because of that, before RSV there wasn’t really big fancy sweeping animations. I still remember fury of the eagles literally using fists of fury from monks. Just punch the enemy with the spear pole kek

Isn’t the crossbow animation shared with Outlaw rogues? Except they have the pistol?

Not ingame rn so cant say anything about the slow but then again its neither here or there.

I personally can’t really think of a reason why not to allow dual-wielded other than “cba”

Bit sad init?

Sorry xD and yeah I guess so!

Never went above lvl 11 when I’ve tried Rogue so Idk xD

Same!! I have no idea why the removed it!! maybe… MAYBE they realized damage went way too low when dual wielding and instead of increasing it they just gave us double handed for the slight extra damage? Idk

Loot tables.
have acces to a second echant weapon that is not plan for the “balance” (hum) dev’s vision of the spec.
Artefact weapon "lore ".
Flow combat white damage of the spec with dot, pet constant damage.

“what little” bruh, sv in one ability has more anomations than most specs in whole kit.

Also animations are just a matter or rigging and assigning them to ability.

You can ancualy see how sv with dual wield looks if you equip the onehanded staff.

Pistol shot

The what?

Legion beta called. You’re wrong.

Tbh only a couple animations while dual wielding would need fixing.

WTH?!! I’ve connected to the game now and see that they’ve removed it. I’ve discovered it only months ago, there is a tiny polearm shown when we use Wing Clip, now it’s gone :weary:

Aeeh, uhm, what?

the reasons that we don’t have dual weapons.

Oh you CAN dual wield, it was never actually removed. So when just running around towns, you can use 2 weapons (all except maces).

But most of your abilities require 2handed weapon and Blizzard is always too busy with politics to actually make worthwhile adjustments to the game. You can still use Kill Command, Serpent Sting, Wildfire Bomb and Flanking Strike while dual wielding, but the rest of the abilities are locked…

Yes, we can use them, but as you said the abilities requiere a 2H weapon, so it’s almost useless… :confused:

Please DON’T make us or ask for DW.
The lack of sheath on the back weapon mogs is upsetting.

There actually is a way to use all abilities while dual wielding as well with a simple trick :slight_smile:
