What would you have liked to see in BFA?

After the finish of BFA, with the ending of Ny’alotha, I have found many people to be unhappy with the content which was delivered in WoW:BFA. For example, I felt that Nazjatar and Mechagon could’ve been two new expansion pack ideas along with the return of N’Zoth.

Any other ideas?

i d have loved to see less pointless grind. newer zones were just there to give more space for more wq/rep grind.

Instead of nzoth 8.3 should have beem more asharra stuff leading to the big finale of nzoth instead of the shadowlands cutscene.

I also wish the warcampaign and islands were waaay better. Ap should have had a cap and you stop getting it as loot. Ap will never EVER feel like a good reward

Many people are always unhappy.
I cant remember 1 xpc that we didnt have whiners about each and every thing.
BFA was not the best expc with this azerite+essence grind so the forum whining went over the top.

Personally i would love to see a Siege of Stormwind in BFA that blizzard owes the horde since MoP.
Sylvanas is the perfect character to do it, guess we have to wait until shadowlands when the mighty queen returns!

Some kind of Easter Egg for Shadow Prests when we enter Ny’alotha

Much simpler but more engaging character progression system. So loot that actually made you more powerful, levelling up actually mattering and a new, fun and interesting talent system.

No mechagon , No naijzatar no n’zoth no old gpd anything at all.
Just a actual race/faction war withh good writing behind it and actulyl morraly grey war.
SHow whhat azerite can do make it matter,use the entire freaking world update zones and cities,make each race participate.
With their Racial themes . Make old cities/zone and enw ones major PVP objectives that reward things.
Make WQ’s all over the world that aslo arent all kill 1 big X or 10small X or get 10 items that got a 10% drop droprate with near non exccisent mob spawning.

Make old resources matter for proffesion for mounts/pet or any other cosmetic and make if people fail to defend cities/Towns and such theyd get dmg’d or even destroyed basicly and people need to as faction/server get Resources to get it back as was and help fun the guard that aid vs mobs and enemy faction.

No borrowed power system at all. Just make gear gear,and go to something like WoD for pvp gearing system and aslo apply it to M+ so M+,raiding adn PVP is each a seperate progession you can do multiple but if just wanna focus on 1 you can get evrything need for it from there.

Make new HD versions of old armor/weapons and make racial/faciton themed rewards can get by engaging in the world vs others.
Dont villain the factions or leaders at all ,dont just kill of characters for nothing like rastakhan.
Have the factions have internal conflict,some agreee some dont.
LIke ally would be eprfect with jaina/genn influencing anduin. Or the lightforged and void elves or just void elves with any light users.

Progress the races and characters,they can die but doesnt have to be as a vilalin for evryone and has to make sense and be not random or killing them for the sake of it and no actual good reasons.

Make use of evrythign the factions have. gnomes and dwarven engieering,the golbin tech use the ironhorde tech adn azerite in more then just a few wq’s.

Make warfronts mix of ashran/AV/wintergrasp/isle of conquest basicly and them these huge things and have actual pvp and mythic option.
Islands shouldve been all over and searching for atleast some of them,made all rewards be eventualy guranteed to egt and make them actulyl abotu exploring and not rush,rush,rush.

BFA couldve been so so so mcuh more.

Easier access to swap talents, azerite essences for gear and for the neck. Aslo would have liked more class changes moving from Legion to BFA, to keep it fresh and not having so many broken specs.

Also really would have liked it to be less grindy on azerite and cloak past 15+. Like I get the grind to that point but why make it endless? Just let me be done :frowning:

Also would have liked master loot back as an option. The amounts of upgrades that is only ilvl upgrades that I have had to keep cuz the restrictions is soooo often and annoying.

In BFA Blizzard clearly forgot that draenei exist, I hope in SL we will get some attention from devs, though highly unlikely.

I would have liked to get an answer on this: WHY IS THERE A BIG SWORD IN SILITHUS?!?!?

  • Less Required content
    Currently, WoW forces u through so many grinds with a specific way u have to do them for Example, Essences from SPecific content instead of a currency you can build over your time doing the things u want to do.

  • More Class Fantasy in Azerite gear
    Alot of azerite gear feels like Multitiudes of Procs of random Damage with 0 player influence. it feels bad when u feel like u arent responsible or able to control your own DPS

  • Challanging content
    Both island expeditions and Warfronts feel like snoozefests, being designed to not be lost is a terrible decision and generally just builds up a AFK mentality surrounding the content

  • Stable classes
    Half the classes feel like they’re held together by their borrowed powers, meaning that diversity in azerite choices dont exist. we’re forced into certain things which bandaid our classes rather then adding things to the class.

  • Less RNG
    everything feels like its on a RNG Roll.
    Warforging/titanforging was 100% RNG. Corruption is 100%, azerite traits are RNG, half your damage is RNG, Weekly chest is RNG, Gem slots are RNG, Additional Secondary stat rolls are RNG.

A better PvP gearing and matchmaking system + more bgs instead of the time limited brawls and Korrak (should have been permanent additions).

This was the best BG in the WoW history.

It had potential but sadly it was just a postman rp simulator for most people where horde had 99% win rate and alliance played postman Pat RP.

I would like to see BFA never happen.

I already unsubbed after christmass but friends dragged me back on ealry march for all the 8.3 bs and now when I uninstalled the game again I only regret ever coming back, not quiting earlier.

BFA was so bad but corruption, vision and assaults made this game absolute joke. I am done to the point I dont even know if I come back on shadowlands.

And no, none of you can have my gold. You would use it to buy tokens and I wont support anyone to play this game.

The sword was shown in the end of Legion cutscene, towards the end of Antorus, The Burning Throne. I can link it here for you.

My artifact weapons still there.

A lot of things. Too much for a post. So i’ll mostly talk about the big ones.

Just to give a few:

1- Raids not becoming completely useless the very next patch.
2- Corruption system purchase being implemented early on, not when it’s already the end of BFA.
3- Blizzard standing against the constant trade spams/botting and multiboxing. Even to an extent, boosting.
4- Why is rep grind so mandatory this expansion?
5- Not having 50 layers of RNG for item drops.
6- Not having 50 layers of processing for determining which item is better for you.
7- Half our gear is basically items we can do nothing about. Neck, cape, 3 azerite pieces. What are we even farming at this point?
8- Professions not even being close to reliable source of gearing. I mean you can’t even use one or two pieces.
9- Mythic+ dropping a lot less gear. At this point, there’s not even a point in bothering with anything else for gearing when mythic+ provides triple the speed of everything else combined.
10- If rep grind is this necessary, why is it only world quest? Give us mob kill rep grind. or tabard, or a dungeon or SOMETHING OTHER THAN WORLD QUEST AND DAILY QUEST.
11- This expansion is unimaginably alt unfriendly. Why!?
12-corruption resistance cloak grind having a catch up mechanic?
13- The only good and interesting new thing they add to the game not being gated behind grinding dailies and weeklies to even TRY? (yea. visions).
14- Blizzard responding to posts other than what’s your favorite hair style in wow or other non relevant posts.

There’s more but that should be enough for now.

No particular order.

  1. A more focused story for both factions
    a) The story is all over the place - patch 1 budget old god , patch 2 pointless war with a neutral civilization , patch 3 Nazjathar, patch 3 old god.
    b) The war campaign felt boring at the start and it devolved into the Saurfang club.
  1. New M+ affixes- some of the affixes in M+ didnt and still dont work with some of the dungeons, where we were promised that these new dungeons will be designed with M+ in mind. Also playing the same affixes for 2 expansions is reallly boring, but points to the seasonal affixes 2/4 were really good.
  1. A class revamp across the board- personally i didnt mind class design in Legion but too much came from the artefact weapon and with its removal everything felt clunky and underdesigned.

  2. Tier sets

  3. Less focus on rental power and more focus on classes, also 1 rental power system not 3.

  4. Torghast bassicly- We were promised replayability with islands and warfronts which got boring after the first go, if they had designed them like they are designing Torghast i believe they would have had more replayability. Also more interesting rewards.

  5. Less chores more fun activities.

  6. WQ emissaries not giving the same ilvl gear as Normal raid, Warfronts as Heroic etc.

  7. M+ weekly chest not trolling me every week on 5 characters.

  8. Mage Tower and not visions.
