Fun's Over For Worgen

You let us be able to use our mount racial in The Maw. While that was nice the fun is over. Now everyone can mount, and understandably so. It was a nice perk to compensate for having underpowered racials

Time to give worgen a real racial ability now that isn’t terrible

TLDR I’m talking about Darkflight. It’s underpowered

At the very least it should be lowered from 2 min to 1.5 min cd

Darkflight is pretty good though?

I use it virtually on CD on my Rogue.

Maybe if it suppressed slows, but currently no, it is not good

Its situational, like every racials should be.

How often do you think i use Warstomp? Considering it DRs much stronger stuns.

Human/Orc racials being OP in PvP is the problem.

For being a 2 min CD, it’s pretty lame that it’s negated by spammable slows that everyone has

Maybe if it prevented movement from dropping below 100%. But currently if you have any slow on you, you basically don’t have a racial

It’s not good

… the vacuum cleaner…? Where?

I use it off cd too. That doesn’t make it good. It’s blatantly obvious it’s one of if not the worst racial abilities given for what it does and its cd

Yes exactly. Or it should at the very least be a much shorter cd for what it does, which isn’t much

Yeah buff darkflight for worgen.

It’s cd is too long, it doesn’t stack, it doesn’t reduce slows, it only lasts 10 sec. It’s bad

Human racial is awesome in raids too, you can use it to get out of the gargoyle pounces and Artificer traps!

Ok…in all seriousness your racial had some time to shine for a bit. Back in Cataclysm it negated the need for the purchase of a ground mount. Even then it was a bit laughable considering how easy it is to get your first mount.

Most racials give a little extra, but they should never be something to drastically alter the gameplay to a point where not playing as a certain race gimps you. If they came out with something like “Make/Return to Camp” as a quest reward/gold sink, I wouldn’t be sitting here demanding a change, I’d just roll with it.

If anything, I’d say the same thing I was saying back in Cata: remove the cast time from Running Wild. Past that?

Yeah, sorry. IMO you shouldn’t have had it in The Maw in the first place.

They should give you the racial that when you attack a player they can turn into a worgen and you automatically get the long boy for spreading the curse to 300 people. this only works in warmode

The Human Spirit has really good scaling. The Lightforged Draenei racial would be pretty good in PvP if Blizzard didn’t nerf its damage by half.

I’m not saying that was fair, I’m saying darkflight sucks. The mount ability is just a cosmetic perk

Watch out or the Nightborne will summon a mailbox at you.

It really isn’t a big deal.

That said, I wouldn’t mind seeing Darkflight given a shorter CD. More Worgen running faster sounds pretty great.

they need to get rid of all this CC, its pretty retarded fighting a warlock these days amirite, even if you’re going to win the entire fight makes me not want to play wow pvp. little things like that are the types of red flags that make you go, " why tf am i addicted to this unbalanced game"

I’d say it’s a big deal if it gimps you in pvp compared to other races


You can’t handle warlock cc as a pally? Also what does that have to do with racials?

Ok?

Your initial post in the topic was this:

Sorry if I thought the complaint was regarding Running Wild. With that said, I see Darkflight as a slightly improved Death’s Advance with a longer cooldown (+40% movement speed for 10 seconds versus +30% for 8 seconds)

If anything, I’d say give you guys a weaker version of our DA passive (can’t be slowed below 70%) as a tradeoff. Past that, I fail to see why it’s bad. I’ve had worgen DKs in the past. Using both DA and Darkflight one after the other does wonders for DK mobility.

If you don’t care for Darkflight, that’s kinda on you for not being able to see good reasons for using it :man_shrugging:
A good player looks for reasons and situations to use those skills as opposed to sitting on the forums saying “I don’t like like this thing, please change it for me.”

It has its situational uses and I use it often, that doesn’t mean it isn’t underpowered.

And sorry for the confusion, but why would I be complaining about running wild? That’s not what I’m concerned about. I’m concerned about having a weak cd

Yeah, meanwhile our racial has a shorter cooldown, can heal a friendly, yourself, or damage an enemy, and it can even crit

Yeah and goblin can use their racial to literally save themselves from being knocked off cliffs on EotS. It even gives them mobility from point A to point B, and has shorter CD than darkflight


Gnome racial, 1 min cd and negates roots and snares…
