Class Changes Needed

This threat is dedicated to changes that need to be made to classes.
This is not a balance thread, as much as it is to correct problems with current classes.

Please include your complains below, i will consolidate them into a list below.

Shaman

  • Improve the mana cost reduction of convection to 5% per a rank.
  • Improve weapon enchants to 1 hour duration
  • Change Stone claw totem to have base health equal to that of the caster, and its talents to improve beyond that and
  • Stone claw will now force the targets to attack it for 2 seconds, and have significantly increased threat and 35% of its generated threat will pass to the shaman after expired.
  • Remove the mana cost of storm strike, and reduce its cool down to 5 seconds.

Warrior

  • Cleave will now apply weapon damage + damage to all targets with in 8 yards of the target.

Rogue

  • Improved poisons (talent) will now grant a 5% (per rank) chance to apply poisons to all targets with in 8 yards of the target.

Hunter

  • Create a talent in beast mastery that improves pet loyalty gains by 10% per rank, 3 ranks.
  • Improve attack power itemization on mail gear, specifically in end game.
  • Create some gear that gives + skill level to bows ( a bow especially would be good for this)

Priest

  • All smite ranks now take 2 seconds to cast
  • Searing Light (holy talent) now increases the damage of smite and holy fire by 25% per rank.
  • Holy Fire now deals all of its damage over 4 seconds, and no longer has impact damage. Shadow Word Pain and Holy Fire cannot be active on the same target.
  • Improved Power Word Shield: Now increases the amount of absorb by 5% and returns 5% of the attackers physical damage per rank.

Mage

  • Remove the creation amount for a range (where you gain +2 water per cast per level) to generate 20 per a stack for its all of its range.
  • Reduce the skill trained for water by 4 levels (so the mages gain higher level water 4 levels earlier then they do now). Create a new rank to serve as the level 60 water (this all was done in original patches)
  • Set the cast time of all fireball spells to 3 seconds
  • Set the cast time of all frost bolt spells to 2 seconds
  • Set the cast time of all flamestrike spells to 2.5 seconds

Druid

  • Set all Wrath to 2 second Cast Times
  • Set all Star fire to 3 second cast Times
  • Moonfire (talent, balance) now reduces the cost of spells by 5%.

Warlock
Needs more investigation, player feedback is reporting no serious issues with the class.

Paladin
Needs more investigation.

Sorry, Updated to fix.
Thanks.

Shaman need the ability to desummon their totems. The Searing Totem is both your best friend and worst enemy when you’re a Shaman.

I have long been an rival to the #nochanges crowd. In fact while classic was in development, it was one of the major arguments i was arguing is insanity while leading rated bgs.

Bottom line is blizzard has clearly stated they will make changes to classes, so this #nochanges thing is just people being stupid.

If you want changes, Retail is waiting for you.

No.

#NoChanges means No Changes.

If you don’t like the broken/half-finished class specs and faceroll easy dungeons and raids then go play retail. This is Classic, the LFR hero game. We got what we asked for.

Changes are coming to the game and have massively already been done in classic.

Your no change nonsense is a dream. IF you doubt that there is blue quoets in this threat in a stick you can read yourself about up coming class changes, and so forth.

In the end, this #nochange nonsense is stupidity. Get use to the idea, the changes have been made, are being made, and will be made in the future.

I only have one class change that I want for the Druid…and its not a balance change per say…

I want to be able to talk to NPC’s in my feral form…Annoys the crap out of me that i have to exit form in Classic compared to Live.

Shamans have the same issue, and yes, it is annoying.

Yea i forgot about shamans…It was so jarring when I first got Bear form and tried to talk to an NPC…I’m not sure when they changed it but I don’t remember it in BC i don’t think

Now you are just trolling. Blizzard never said they would make changes to classes in Classic.

You typed up a whole lot of nothing. Go back to retail and never return.

There’s nothing about class changes. If you’re talking about the correction to demo shout/roar, that’s a bug fix, not a change.

Can you link where Blizzard posted that they will make Class changes? It’s not in the stickies or the blue tracker…

Yes, They did. Again, if you doubt it, there is blue quotes in the sticky of this forum that says that.
