[Spoilers] Shadowlands Alpha

Also MM hunters looking like garbage for yet another expansion.

FML

Did you see the ele revamp tho?

yes but pet rp

So my Blood Elf Hunter can’t be a true Farstrider then?

Circle of Healing is now a baseline spell for all Holy Priests, freeing them up to master a new Talent in its stead: Prayer Circle .

Doktor, remove my kumbaya inhibitors…

Honestly I just want divine intervention back, being able to die to give someone a one minute long invulnerability was sick class flavour.

Things that I wanted:

warrior:

  • baseline stun
  • Baseline, reliable self-heal cooldown or passive.
  • Arms mastery changed, Overpower buffed significantly.

Shadow priest:

  • Insanity gone. It’s a god-awful mechanic that is impossible to balance. Cool aesthetics wise, impossible to balance. It’s just terrible, get rid of it. RAMP UP MECHANICS HAVE NEVER, ever, in the history of the game, worked.
  • More mobility

MM hunter:

  • Aimed shot castable while moving
  • Get rid of rapid fire

Akamito and Aerilen complained about Death Knights in Orgrimmar just for Akamito to become one.

Big F’s.

Possibly likewise.

Although I might start out as a ranged class at first, then go melee.

Honestly though, as minor as it was I wish they’d have brought the anti-undead/demon flavour back to paladins. Nothing was half as satisfying as deleting undead with exorcism procs.

They’re also giving back dual-wield to brewmasters and 2H to Windwalkers.
Hopefully we see more of this. It’s a little disheartening to read some classes getting a lot of abilities back, and then… The one line for Destro/Demo is all (even with the rest of the warlock curses)

They get Sense Undead and Turn Evil back at least.

Unholy looks like it’s switching into a minionswarm spec, and I’m here for it.

If they aren’t giving us festerblight back, they might as well focus on the ‘army’ part of the army of the dead.

But you’ll get to mog shadowmourne as Frost and that’s the bee’s knees.

The affliction warlock changes look great but I can’t believe demonology and destruction are remaining the same. For multiple other classes they’ve moved crucial talents from BfA into the baseline kit but for destro and demo they’re just going to play the same…? It’s a shame that demonology warlocks are going to spend another expansion fully tied to using a felguard and destruction warlocks can still have most of their damage demolished by a single mechanic/stun stopping them from casting chaos bolts during infernal.
