Why are you still doing this
Yeah for everything elseâŚ
Like hover for example, perfect exampleâŚ
But a wing beat, lol come on
Just preparing folks for the inevitable removal of glide from non-Evoker Dracthyrs.
Theyâre not gonna remove it âŚ
At most itâll be severely limitedâŚ
Maybe not usable in combat, a CD, or no more forward momentum
Always being immune to knockbacks, being able to glide around the map and move faster has no major benefit in pvp?
I admire your optimismâŚ
This doesnât mean what you think it means. Immunity means that it doesnât affect you at all. Even with Glide, you take time to land after a knock back. The effect is mitigated if you react promptly, but to say it grants âimmunityâ to knock back is an unnecessary hyperbole.
So⌠remove Dracthyr tails and give em to Worgen is what Im hearing.
You canât remove glide off of a winged race broâŚ
Worst case scenario it could be disabled in rated pvp
Good luck knocking anyone off lumbermill/blacksmith in AB or knocking them off the map in eye of the storm when they are all capable of gliding.
Thatâs why the forward momentum needs to be removed, that fixes that issue 100%
Donât you dareâŚ
People still do AB and EotS? Sorry if these niche cases result in a very small racial advantage, but that doesnât really affect me or 99% of other players.
Everyone who enjoys pvp is playing ranked solo queue bgâs, you know the new ranked mode for the expansion.
The Dracthy are losing their tails? Oh I bet the Worgen are loving this.
Shared cooldown would be an OK compromise I think⌠but yes, everyone I know was planning to race change because having both - even on a 3 min cooldown - was beyond ridiculous.
I really donât like this change. Tail Swipe and Buffet should both be on the same CD and Evokers should get a talent or baseline spell that removes that restriction.
Oh you have no idea!
So a very specific use case makes Glide a decent racial on certain battlegrounds from time to time. With decent gameplay pretty much every dracthyr class could already avoid being knocked to their death.
Hunter disengage, rogue shadowstep, warrior heroic leap, Mage blink, Warlock demonic circle, all of them can resist being knocked to their death already.
I guess you have priest to complain about, but at that point it just feels like youâre trying too hard to come up with reasons why it shouldnât exist.
Imagine all those classes with all those movement abilities you just listed but now they can glide too, its overpowered and needs to be disabled in pvp.
