Dracthyr Monk

Muh lore is a meme excuse. No one cares.

They need to make new animations for them to be Monks.

lmao.

No one said you couldn’t ask for it. We just gave you the reason why it wasn’t released when they added other classes. By all means, ask away!

I definitely want a Dracthyr Monk option… and Paladin too, in retrospect. No objections to other classes too, but those are the priority for me.

Glide snd Soar are just fun abilities…

Also, I would request the option to visage into any (unlocked) race. Perhaps faction limited, but why not?

Could we also find a way for all Dracthyr classes to do their intro zone? There’s not that many Evoker-only actions in there… though it’d be funny to see a Dracthyr rogue use Disintegrate because cutscene moment.

right…but we did infer ‘just stop asking, theyre not doing it’

he doesnt speak for bliz, I assume…so hes in no position to make this claim

probably dracthyr can’t be monks for technical reasons (wings). that would certainly be very difficult to animate so they left it for the future. there is also an issue that is Gliding VS the monk’s double jump talent, I don’t know how that would work.

oh good lord…have I missed something else cool with monk? lol.
Well, I do spread myself thin over a number of specs so Im bound to miss things here and there. lol

I sure didn’t. I was just explaining what the base model came with and that they didn’t spend the time back then to add new animations to the rig.

I’m sure someday they’ll get around to it.

Maybe.

Eventually.

<.<

It’s fun, after using Chi torpedo or rolling, you can use the jump and take a small leap forward.

I really don’t think this would be too much of an issue since DH also has glide and a double jump, and it just works in order of operation (first double jumps, then glides), so it would just be a matter of using the jump dash first then gliding.

oh…no, not you…youve actually been overly pleasant to interact with for a while now.
Im trying to do the same, honestly, though its not always easy with the persistence in error and fallacy that seems to drive this forum many days.

the other poster seems to be saying not to bother, and speaking for bliz in the matter…sorry if I seemed to be implying that you were the one who made the comment. :+1:

well, maybe. certainly this is a minor issue compared to the wing animations issue.

I’d keep it simple:
One, then the other.

The monk air dash should happen first (seems the least problematic), and another press of the jump button would activate glide. Much like how DH double-jumps before their own glide.

And Glide is technically a separate ability, and could be used independently through a keybind. There’s just an automated context-sensitive input through the jump button.
