Eh… Are our questions asked both in the web form and in the old thread still up for review? This is starting to get confusing for us question askers.

Hello! I have several questions, mostly relevant to character customisation.

  • Well first, more please? There’s been do many suggestions, trolls beards, belf red eyes and arcane runes, worgens tails, more hairstyles for everyone, I am sure you have seen them. Any news on that front please?

  • What of heritage armor for the races who don’t have theirs yet?

  • Could color variations of those heritage armors be released for everyone please? Some already exist in the files, others have been done in many fanart.

  • Could the weapons in the files with those armors be released please?

  • Customisation for allied races too ? The nightbornes particularly need them.

  • May I hope for dual wielding survival hunters? The aesthetic would be wonderful, and much closer to Rexar and the other npcs who inspired that spec.

  • Will the anima drop be tweaked or the price of cosmetics (armors, weapons, mounts) be lowered? It is currently a very unpleasant grind, particularly coupled with the sanctuary updates.

  • I am gonna insist on character customisation. It is really needed, pretty please.

Here are my questions, I just hope it’s not going to be a pick US forums questions and ignore EU side:

  • Are there going to be Class Tier Sets in 9.1?
  • 2 or more Legendary Items equipped when?
  • Bigger Soulbind trees in 9.1 with more conduit slots?
  • Tank is the most neglected role this expansion and has been declining in quality and fun since MoP. Is agency over their tankiness and survival on the table for 9.1?
  • Legendary appearance available for transmog in 9.1 or are those going to be the sets for the Raid?
  • New Legendary powers to discover? Full rework of spec legendaries that are not even worth being crafted (Blood DK has a bunch and some revolving around the same spells)
  • Will there be any cosmetic rewards for Mythic+ S2 besides a recolor of S1 mount, for e.g. Transmog sets?
  • Will we see new reputations in 9.1, like we saw in Nazjatar or Mechagon with pet battles as an alternative way to push some extra rep?
  • Did you guys really hinted at the Necrolord flying mount being able to fly in the maw when you claimed it wasn’t afraid of the sent of death?

Will we see more race customisation for core races (races between vanilla > cata) coming with 8.1 to try and help round off the “customisation” aspect of this expansion since most of the races for the most part felt neglected when weighed up along side races which also have sub races to choose from too.

With chains of domination can we expect to see some form of catch up system for any point systems which are currently implemented? Playing an alt and doing PVP or M+ will be the most gruelling task ever if you’re 3-6k of the currency behind the first wave players.

Can we expect to see new race / class combinations with the new patch, if not then what about the next expansion?

Since the main theme for Shadowlands is claimed to be player agency and player choice. Will you unlock race class combinations that should have been available from the start?

Rogue should be available to all races, Draenei and Tauren should have had them from the start.

Will the chains of domination soulbind tree allow for passive snd, focused attacks, detect/disarm traps, burst of speed, gouge etc for Assassination?

If you think of the abilities and things our characters learn from their perspective how do you justify taking things away? The character learned something but then suddenly forgot how to do it without a reason.

Will you bring back all the things our characters used to know how to do? And will you move away from borrowed power moving forward and instead giving the character growth and power be more in line with how things worked before pruning and expansion power systems.

Are there any plans for new Pet Battle dungeons, or any other Pet Battle related systems?

75

Are there any plans to streamline racials to push player agency with the next patch? Defeats the point when most racials 90% of the time will always perform better than others due to the niché of some.

76

Are you trolling right? You do barely level 10 mythic plus keys, yet you came to conclusion that this is the problem and needs to be adressed here? Lol.

77

I would like some comments on future class balancing, if you will be addressing the glaring issues with the differences between classes/specs.

Particularly, being refused invites solely on your spec. Regardless of the level of content you are trying to do.

When will you do anything about legacy content scaling? Legion raids and dungeon to be specific.

79

Are you guys planning to do Allied race customizations in the future patches?
especially races like nightborne and lightforged draenei lacks alot in that department.

You announced tier sets before. Are they coming with 9.1 and will there be a set bonus for pvp items as well?

Hello,

Argent Dawn player here,

I was wondering what the plans for Gilneas are? I would love to see it being used as an alliance hub for roleplayers, and it would be nice to have GennGreymane ,the now defacto king of the Alliance with anduin…MIA…take back Gilneas and provide a home for HOMELESS STRUGGLING REFUGEES like They did for the worgen in Darnassus.

Thank you so much for all the work on Shadowlands!

In priority order

1. Item Design

Are there going to be helmet/hood designs in the future that allows long hair to be shown, which is more important for female characters.
It doesn’t make sense that our characters are suddenly bald when putting on a hood, especially female characters with long hair.

Can you also please make grey/white/starting gear eligible for Transmog? I really love Sai daggers from Pandaria starting area but sadly they are not eligible for Transmog yet.

Also the option to change weapon sheathing position would be really nice (on back or on side), monks already sheath any weapon on their back, so it should be possible to do this.

2. Updated Models for Some Old Mounts

Will there be seperate updated models for some old iconic mounts such as Swift Spectral Tiger and Swift Zulian Tiger? I would love to see this happen, but as seperate mounts similar to Qiraji mounts.

3. Additional Customzation Options for Void Elves

I would like to know if Void Elves will be getting more customization options in the future. I would like glowing Void tattoos, more hair styles and more hair colors.

4. Alternate Voice-Over Options for Players

With upcoming customization options; I think it would be cool if there will be alternative voice over options for each race for player characters in the future.
I think this would bring more variety, instead of single, fixed voice over for each race.
For example: Female Void Elves have a deep tone by default, but I would like a younger, cute voice option.

5. Class Order Hall Titles from Legion Beta

Are these titles going to return? I was pretty hyped up when I first saw Rogue Order Hall Title in Legion Beta gameplay video which is Master Assassin,
and I was really disappointed when it was changed to Shadowblade on release.
I’d like these Beta Order Hall Titles to return as additional titles.

6. Cooldowns of Toys

Do you consider removing Cooldowns on toys? I think it doesn’t make sense and it’s just annoying.
Can you please remove them and just let us toys as much as we want without Cooldowns.

7. Custom Avatar option on Battle net

Are there going to be custom avatar option for Battle net app?

Thanks.

Why is no info about potential faction in balance solutions.

Why are you not removing the restrictions of the covenant system when it comes to power? I mean you will never be able to balance these abilities and make them meaningful to press at the same time. Players don’t really want them balanced, its super fun to press the big shiny button and watch things explode, what people want is to not be handicapped and/or pigeon holed into a “meaningful choice” almost no one asked for. You were correct in your assessment that people will be pissed if they needed to switch covenants which this will ultimately lead to. Its not hard to see that the vast majority of people are picking covenants based on power, even in the rare cases where it actually is a 1%-5% difference the majority is taking the stronger one, and i seriously doubt that you will be able to balance all 144 variations to be 1-5%.

So my real question is, why are you still trying to salvage this system ? Is this an Azerite/BfA 2.0 situations where “Blizzard knows best” ? Why not just focus on pulling that switch or ripcord your game director promised us, because so far this system has been everything you promised us it won’t be. Speaking of things you told us but were incorrect, the reason why we didn’t have a “ripcord” was the “the system was too complex and the abilities were too intertwined into it” (paraphrasing ofc), looking at it on live… It ain’t looking that complex to me chief and i’m not seeing anything that directly connects to impending catastrophe, apart from 1 conduit which should be an easy fix , right ? I mean if I can see how this can be avoided surely the great Blizzard that know best can figure it out ?

PS I do not believe this question will be addressed due to the lenght and subject but if by some miracle you decide to, feel free to restructure this to fit format but pls keep in context.

When you will remove mercenary mode and encourage people to play Alliance instead of encouraging them to afk and leech honor as mercenary, it is frustrating for us Alliance players having to play with mercenary hordes.

Even if you don’t remove it I request an option like “Exclude Mercenaries” box for us who don’t like playing with them. I want 100℅ Alliance teams in random battlegrounds.
