I unlocked Mag’har yesterday and was super excited to roll a Hunter due to it. I was planning on making a cool Survival Hunter and run around with an axe and my pet, but something instantly threw me off.
The ability Serpent Sting makea my character draw this ugly, tiny, Bloodborne-looking-*** crossbow and fires a shot with it. What’s up with that? It completely ruined the fantasy of survival being melee oriented and more of a tribal type ranger character.
The only race I can think of that’d fit this would be Forsaken, but even so, it looks really out of place.
I get that Outlaw Rogues draw a gun, but the whole idea behind that spec is that it’s a bandit/pirate, y’know, an OUTLAW.
Am I the only one who thinks the spell looks completely ridiculous? Or do you like it? Would love to hear what other, more seasoned Hunters think
Just curious is all. Not trying to start anything other than to hear what others are thinking, and it wasn’t an old topic for me as I’m new to Hunter and their anims
I was just completely thrown off and surprised at the same time, as I can’t think of any other instance in the entirety of Warcraft where a small crossbow appears.
Only thing I that comes to mind is the Demon Hunter in Diablo 3 and I guess that might be where it comes from and maybe this annoyance stems from me disliking the fact that there have been many abilities in BfA that looks like they’re straight from Diablo.
Terrible animation looks terrible. They could have added a glyph to change the animation to throwing axes or spears/javelins or even a blowpipe (which already exists in-game with Blood Trolls). Hell, even throwing a poisoned dart would have looked better than the cr@p xbow animation we were given.
Leave me and my pocket crossbow I pull out of my butt alone >:C
But a glyph to change it to something else would also be nice and argueably make more sense.
