Can our characters be left handed?

Something tells me it’d be too hard for our current devs.

That would require them to make new animations for every race and weapon type, so no, your character cannot be left handed.

Or. They mirror the animation rig. That’s mega easy.

You’re not a soldier in an army though. You’re just an adventurer.

That would be a cool option. I wonder how difficult from a programing angle that would be.

It’s a mirror mostly for the rig. Fighting games do this so the animations are fine no matter what side of the fight you’re on

I know Orc Magi and Blood Elves are left-handed in the game. But I agree with you. It would be nice to choose how to shoot and deal with the world left-handedly. Won’t complain. that is a minor thing Blizzard won’t do, but won’t detract me from playing.

If you flip the character it will feel awkward, your character is not symmetrical.
They will need to put the weapon in the left hand and redo the animation for every abilities & classes. The time it takes does not matters, it’s just about Blizzard willingness to do it.
