Worgen racial “Harder Worgen show me your beast”

Solarion-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 1:17am

New Worgen racials, huh? How about something like…

Son/Daughter of Goldrinn: Gain the effect of either, ‘Lone Wolf,’ or, ‘Strength of the Pack.’

Lone Wolf: When there are no other Worgen players nearby, increases haste and versatility by 5%.

Strength of the Pack: When another Worgen player or NPC is nearby, increase damage dealt/healing done by 1% per Worgen, up to a maximum of 5%.

(Disclaimer: I don’t know numbers, please forgive if I suggested something ridiculously imbalanced.)

Dardillien-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 1:20am

These are actually really cool. But I was going for more active racials versus passives, although I wouldn’t mind these ones replacing some of our current ones.

Solarion-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 1:23am

Oh, well, let’s see…

Moonward Howl: Invoke the howl of the ancient, increasing the party’s max HP by 5% for 15 seconds.

Maybe a little bland, I don’t know. Could as easily increase damage nearby NPCs take for 10 seconds or something too. I think it’d have to depend on what the overall racials are. I don’t think an AOE debuff to make enemies take increased damage would play too well with a passive that increases your damage, even if it’d be thematically appropriate for Worgen.

Juspeon-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 1:42am

Now I’m picturing whole raids and PVP groups that are all worgens and being like, oh no oh jeez who let the dogs out??!?!

Solarion-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 1:57am

Well, it’d only count up to five worgen so… at least five worgen per raiding/PvP group I suppose?

Wolf-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 2:34am

imagine playing a worgen

Dardillien-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 2:39am

I know right? I mean short of Blizzard deleting them from the game they have all but destroyed them as a race…

All their themes and aesthetics were given to the Kul Tirans (especially in Drustvar)
Their racial flag was changed to just being the Stormwind logo with darker colors.
They are left homeless in the streets of Stormwind while their king licks Anduin’s boots instead of fighting to have Gilneas reclaimed.
Their heritage quest basically spits on 10 years of lore by saying “Oh yeah the worgen curse sucks and needs to go away” despite the fact that Worgen for years have been saying stuff like “Our curse grants us strength!”

Yeah… gotta love BfA and all it’s Worgen racial pride.

You mean normal people don’t hold grey items that are rp relevant to their character just so they can ctrl-click them and slap them into rp sentences to be utterly cheeky?

Milladee-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 5:27am

imagine worgens - radioactive

Zophvantes-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 6:35am

look here ghost man, i’m gonna need you to stop personally attacking me before i start farming ur boss in the feast hall of karazhan for his mongoose enchants

As a big collector, I feel that. Interfaces such as the pet tab, the toy tab etc. were huge for pack rats.

Void storage is sort of annoying but I’m glad we have it.

One thing I’d love is a bank tab that was just a massive grid we could put bags in, and you can swap a bag from there with one from your main bags – let us collect RP items and store them, then use them in a convenient manner.

I have entire guild banks full of weird stuff, it’s a good way to get use out of all these alts.

I’d like more character slots for more alts. Let me collect characters/play this old game as I choose ffs

Zophvantes-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 9:51am

meanwhile, at blizzard headquarters

Bobby Kotick: ”No, provide for my third yacht, philistine”

Vanndrel-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 9:38pm

I mean, I used to. Then they gave us the toy box and pretty much all my RP items became easily accessible on my side hotbars.

((If you make Vanndrel made, he drops a Void Totem and proceeds to “void out” the area))

Thomasbates-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 9:42pm

Oh no, you misunderstand. I mean like, for example, keeping the useless grey item [Ephemeral Digits] to slap into a sentence by linking it in the chat instead of just writing that Bates picked up something with his hands like a normal reasonable person.

Maggles-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 10:06pm

Maggie carried around the grey Gilnean top hat Worgen get from the starting area.

Saw the bit on mmo-champ that says Echo is 9/10 Mythic SoD and I sat here reading it as a California weather forecast.

Drought drought drought drought drought STUFF drought drought drought.
Like damn, man. What’re y’all gonna do when you’re 10/10 M SoD?
Be 10/10 SoL?

Vanilla

Plus Exile’s Reach’s “Baby’s First Dungeon”.

Interesting to see how despite it being a principle stated focus of the developers, the amount of Mythic Dungeon and Raid content is trimmed down from the “glory days” of WoW.

Auhgag-wyrmrest-accord · July 18, 2021, 10:51pm

To be fair, some of those raids in Wrath and BC were single boss raids or mini raids. On the flip side, about 3 different dungeon locations in vanilla qualified as mega dungeons and some of those raids required you to enter them through a dungeon.

I absolutely agree the older expacs had more content in the pve department.
