We Need New Warrior Abilities Animations

Hello. Dear WoW Team, please give us Warriors, new improved abilities animations. I mean, now I play with my Dwarf Warrior in PvP Epic BGs, and coming from my Paladin, there is a huge ability animations difference between them, with my Paladin I really feel like a Holy Templar, with my Warrior I don’t feel like a Viking at all. Dear fellow players, what are your thoughts on this? Thanks for reading my post.

Warriors don’t cast spells

I am sure he just means animations? More whooshes and stylisations?

Cos, yeah, Warriors don’t cast spells. There shouldn’t be any lightning or fire on their swings!

Sounds very Thor to wield lightning

Nah, it shouldn’t hurt at all if you’re properly grounded.

Yes please, i want better animations for melee classes.

Also i want my hunters gun to stop making wet fart sounds and sound like a gun again

What if a warrior swings so fast or hard theres energy involved?

But yes it does feel a bit boring compared to other classes, same goes for hunter really its very underwhelming imo. Not everything has to be shiny but some do need a rework to feel more satisfying to press.

not just new animations but improve ASAP the sounds in combat to be more like classic.

just in line witht the topic, the other day saw in reddit post of a guy using the old ingame classic sound in retail, so i went to the work aswell and manage to trigger some random blocks and parrys like swings- wep- sounds in a WA and…

What a BLAST im having with the game again, just starting sometimes combat with ramdoms enemies just to hear the "PLINK PLANK PLONK of the combat itself with the classic sounds.

I just needed 3 mins to make the wa and i think is something Blizz devs should start bringing those things back as an option ingame.

Edit: for all with interest , u can download the sounds in the Sound archives from w w w.wowhead. c o m /sounds (just search for the sound u looking for and u will find A LOT of options)

I agree with this post, we have no spell effects whatsoever, look at cleave for example, it’s a green swosh, and thats about it. Prot aswell, thunderclap a minor lighting crash and avatar you go from 1 to 1.5 in size and turn a bit grey, whereas prot paladins for example have insane spell effects and turn into a holy god templar devinity , throwing a bouncing cool shield that silences and concecrate

Trust me, you really don’t.

I remember the outcry to nerf gun noise (And the add-ons doing just that), yes, guns currently sound like paintball guns, but the whole “BANG BANG BANG PEW BANG BANG BANG PEW PEW BANG BANG BANG!”-thing (Imagine a 10+ minute raid boss fight with this…) gets pretty old really quickly.

I agree with warriors needing better animations (And maybe the old “Deep wounds” blood spurt on our many bleeds, prot can glyph into it, why can’t the other specs?), but it shouldn’t be too flashy (None of that “Swing your weapon so hard it shoots beams” anime stuff), warriors aren’t a wussy magic-using class.

trust me, i liked the old gun sounds even after many years
