Updated the previous post with additional talent suggestions. The updated image, along with all the tooltips, can also be found below here.
- Several of the new talents that have been suggested are called “Improved…”, and are mostly just flat percentage upgrades to specific abilities. Why? It seems as if this is something that they’re including in the talent trees, going forward. This can be seen in the ones that have already been announced for other classes.
- Several talents, for anyone who’s played the class in the past, can be recognized from former Legendary powers, tier set bonuses, etc.
- Even if the idea of merging BM with the melee+bestial aspects of MSV isn’t on the table for Dragonflight(unlikely), the parts below that do include melee, along with the same ones in the original post, they can easily be removed and this whole concept could still be considered for Beast Mastery, come 10.0.
