Apologies in advance if I’m beating an old drum since I do not frequent these forums much, but with how popular pugs are through the group finder in Dragonflight, there is a much overdue need for another class (maybe 2) with a summoning ability.
I was thinking of a bronze spell for evokers, or perhaps something for mages so raid leaders don’t feel a sense of obligation to bring a warlock along to keep a raid going by minimizing downtime.
Thoughts?
i would have to say no
due to some players might troll summon someone to death
I gave feedback to blizz mages could do a bidirectional portals. From city to their location and from their location to a city.
But is blizz and they think they are smarter than the players. Only take them 10 yrs to accept an idea ( and they just snatch it.) Like all the Addons
Give it to DKs
We’re permanently connected to the shadowlands so we can use that to quickly whisk people across the land
And it’ll be fun cuz they’ll be reminded of SL everytime they’re summoned
i can see that getting death grip across the world lol
Yea give DK (death gate) and Mages (portals) a party summon.
Give two other classes a healthstone.
Hunters can hand out foraged food, rogues can hand out potions they pickpocketed. Lol
That would be amazing lol.
Yes, give DK’s grippy slappy hands.
Would be nice to see some summon given to one or more classes.
Only if it can be envoker so I can giggle at the reactions
No one need a summon on every class it would only be misused.
Warlocks can and have done this a ton already so having another class who can summon folk let alone summon them off a cliff…yeah no…we don’t need more of this madness. Bad enough we gotta put a leash on the locks to not troll folk we don’t need to have to leash another class to stop them from doing it too. So yeah I agree… we don’t need another class that can summon people
Hard disagree, its not like you are forced to accept a summon. If you get trolled with a summon, I feel like that’s kind of a “you should’ve been paying attention” moment. Especially since you can easily hover over a party member and see where they are (along with seeing them on your map).
Additionally, I disagree with the idea of locking summoning behind a class that some people just may not even like. I’d say giving at least 1-3 other classes a summon would be a good thing for players and that it would make non-instanced group content (or even repair trips during a raid) more accessible.
what happened to the guild mass summon/mass rez abilities you would get via guild progression?
would be nice to have those again…
No there isn’t.
It’s ok for classes to be unique and have unique abilities. There are plenty of alternatives in game already.
are you kidding me right now? Typically when a guild go and does a raid they have the lock summon people to the raid and if that lock is in a different group of the raid than you you can’t just tell where they are. You shouldn’t also have to double check if the warlock is there or not or trolling to begin with so I don’t care what you have to say…we don’t need to grant another class the power to summon folks.
If its raid summons, again unless we’re talking repair summons, a lock isn’t even needed? There’ve been giant rocks outside the instances for summoning since the game started.
Also, if it is a guild event, who cares if someone does a little trolling? It’s at worst a minor inconvenience. I’m assuming your group would have 2 people at the instance to summon correctly anyways and there’s no reason for anyone currently at the instance to accept a summon unless they’re bored and what to see what happens.
I’d say give a couple more classes a summon and maybe give warlocks the ability for a mass summon so that they keep the gimmick of being the primary summoning class.
Head to the summoning stone.
No 'lock required.
Give it to the Tinker Class when we get one
“Semi-Stable Matter Reorganizer & Teleporter”
Or “SMRT” for short.
Basically you build a teleporter and warp people in. “Beam me up, Scotty”
Pretty soon everyone will have every ability. And it makes classes not unique. Every class should have buffs and bubbles and levitates and fears and dispels and leaps etc. pretty soon there will be one class and one spec in the entire game. That class spec will heal dps and tank all at once.
They used to have the guild ability “have group will travel” which summoned your entire group to that persons location.
that ability was awesome during Tol Barad days… but it was quickly removed for people inviting random people and summoning them to Gurubashi free for all PVP zone. yeah i fell for that.
