Dragon Class

If we get a new class and its a dragon themed class, what would you like to see done with it?

I personally think it would be really cool having breath attacks that follow different schools of magic.
So maybe you have an active ability that changes which form you are in.
Like a frost dragon, fire dragon, lightning dragon, etc.
Then your breath corelates to that.
frost would slow somone, fire would give them a dot, etc.

Could also have a healing spec that uses their breath to heal you

or

could go the route of dragon flights for each spec. now we wouldnt get all.
but your healing spec could be associated with the bronze flight for using time magic to reverse wounds
the black flight would be the tank spec using more earth abilities
the blue flight could be a ranged magic spec
and the red could be a melee dps spec

A lot of cool ideas could be done for a dragon class!

So pumped for the 19th

Remember this is IF its a dragon themed class.

I want to see a healing flame spell where the caster barfs fire all over a player in melee range and it somehow heals them.

Iā€™d like to see it scrapped and replaced with a Bard or Tinker, maybe even the ā€œleakā€ from the other day with the Invoker/SpellBreaker thingy.

As long as itā€™s not tinker Iā€™ll be very happy with the class / spec Iā€™m sure.

Thatā€™s how I feel about a dragon themed class.
IF it was something announced on the 19th I would actively provide feedback on why they should not be the next class. We need something rooted in the history of WoW, not some lame dragon wannabes.

what would be the point in that? if its announced theres nothing you could say that would remove it. wasted energy.

Yeah youre right. dragons arent apart of wows loreā€¦

Ermā€¦ you know that Dragons have been a part of Warcraft Lore since Warcraft II, right?

I would be down for a mix of a range/melee class that invokes a particular Dragon and you gain abilities based on the dragon you invoked for X amount of time or enhanced abilities.

yeah that would be sweet.

You active ability decides if youre ranged or melee. could be really cool playstyle.

Need to move out of the boss, turn on ranged. need to close in/move a lot turn on melee

I played this game when I was younger called Breath of Fire. You played as a dragon-turned-human whoā€™s primary power turning into dragons of different colors. They made a few of those games, but the idea was similar across them all.

Iā€™d like to see something like that. Your base cooldown could be turning into a dragon and having access to different abilities based on your spec, OR you could swap dragon forms depending on your rotation. Like build in green then swap to red to spend etc. Something neat like that.

I hope we get a ā€˜class mountā€™ which would let us turn into a dragon. (doesnā€™t have to be gigantic. A drake would be fine. But Iā€™d love that sort of thing.) I know, Vial of Sands is a thing, but I want something more aesthetically pleasing and choices.

Right, but players couldnā€™t be actual Dragons without completely ignoring how powerful Dragons are in their natural form.
How boring would it be playing just another human/elf whoā€™s really a dragon but not really.
Some sort of Dragonsworn or whatever boring idea thatā€™s been thrown around has no real basis in the game either compared to a multitude of other potential classes.

I would seriously consider not buying the next expansion if some kind of boring Dragon-ish class was coming. We all know they would never give us actual playable Dragons unless their Dragon form was some useless whelp but weā€™ve seen that their true forms are tied to age so unless we are playing as literal children that wouldnā€™t even make sense.

As much as some people hate the idea of a Tinker, I despise the idea of a Dragon class in WoW.

The Sandstone Drake is an alchemical facsimile of a faux dragon. It grinds my gears when people suggest that it fulfills the fantasy. :grimacing:

Yeah, plus it barely even looks like a dragon. The stone drakes have among the worst designs, though thatā€™s a subjective opinion on my part. I just wish we had more options :frowning: Like turning into a storm drake would be SO COOL.

Iā€™d rather have Tinker. We have Races that just donā€™t have their Thematic class.

I think if it were put to a majority vote the Alliance would part ways with the Gnomes, especially if it meant Mechagnomes.

I couldnā€™t care less about gnomes.
I want the Classes from WC3 Represented, and weā€™re short a pretty obvious one.
