Adopt Forever improvements

Post#1 » Mon Sep 14, 2026 6:04 am

Please, don't act haughty/arrogant/pity and refuse (out of spite) to implement or adopt game improvements, features, and changes that WoW Forever gets right.

Which are...?
Shaman elfs?

We already have turtle things here, no need to reimplement stolen content 8-)

Personally I really like the priest discipline tree with the focus on shielding/crit healing. I think, if done right, on octo you could keep the current dps spec and also implement this type of healer/support spec where you can choose one of thos specs depending where you put the points in the disciplin tree.

God, if this is going to be the new wave of suggestions I'm gonna throw up tbh.

I have made suggestions to a disci priest rework/improvement weeks ago, in particular pointing out that it has 0 identity beside "I crit I procc" with vastly lacking in the dps support department which it looked like it was initialy designed towards. Also shields are mostly useless in dungeons/raids outside of some rare use cases and the talent points you could invest in the current shield talents are just wasted in any spec (maybe only in pvp it's may be somewhat used I guess).

But god forbid someone is making a suggestion to improve a lackluster spec or introduce playstyle variety.
Also "presented by modern WoW", shielding priest was a thing in WotLK unless you cout that as "modern WoW", and of course it should be balanced/adjusted towards our octo version.

Can you really say nothing looked nice to you?

I agree that Blizzard is officially a shithole and everything they touch turn to shit. But to say nothing they are adding to WoW Forever seems like a good idea is certified crazy tall...

I'm sure we all have different opinions (and some people's are unfortunately tainted by the fact they're associated Blizz), but one I think would have broad support would be the expanded on Campsites.

I can really say nothing looked nice to me so let's cut the ambiguity and you just tell us what you want from Forever so we don't waste our time arguing about Forsaken Paladins and Sky Elves...

Yes? The entire thing struck me as modern Disney tier slop. I want nothing to do with any of it. Now if they had talked about Tauren Paladins I would feel differently. :roll:
