Live Developer Q&A Thursday, January 24 – Submit Your Questions

Server Merges. When are they going to happen? There are so many “dead” realms now that it makes recruiting for Mythic raiding almost impossible on these servers.

On my server we literally had to pay for peoples server transfers so we could have the 20 needed for Mythic raiding and we still have attendance issues due to low player numbers.

Islands don’t feel good for players who identify as “healer mains”, since most groups divide and conquer. Has there been any thought on adding some healing mechanics to NPCs that would engage us further. It doesn’t and hasn’t felt good swapping to dps just to do content.

Are there any changes planned for gearing progression? Currently I feel that it is far too easy for low to mid level players to “out-gear” their skill level. For me, I am perfectly happy and comfortably challenged by running Normal raids and M+4-6’s yet that content isn’t worth doing because better gear is available from so many other, far easier sources, none of which have the longevity or social implications of organized raiding.

Could free faction transfers be offered to players looking to switch from horde to alliance for a small amount of time? To help with imbalancing.

Is it possible to have a deterministic (non-RNG) gearing method via heroics, like the game used to have with the Badge of Heroism/of Valor system?

What is going to be done with RP realms and those who feel the need to harass other RPer’s? Every day I have to wade through character’s like “BritanySpears” or “Grandwizardkkk” and yet your GM support staff refuse to address the issue. The automated system does not work, we have opened tickets, and even sent in emails. Why don’t you support RP servers anymore?

It’s more annoying to have badly designed specs. I’d rather they rework until they get something good.

Only the ones that don’t require any previously unknown information. Can’t give away too much information to set up the next Developer Q&A just after CoS is released.

In a Q&A a while back, we were told that the Allied Races with fewer options than others would be given more customization options soon. It has been almost half a year now, and we have yet to see any options added to the Highmountain Tauren and Nightborne who have far less options than the other Allied Races.

Will we end up getting more options or was this just pushed to a later patch?

Additionally, would the team ever consider changing/reworking the Male Nightborne model (more specifically the arms and legs) to be less skinny in order to look better in more armor sets?

I’m not giving any opinions here man, what are you on?

When do we get more buttons to mash? The pruning has been atrocious.

Do you have a plan to cull or weed out underperforming talents to be replaced? several classes are suffering with options that haven’t been viable in years.

This thread isn’t for childlike responses or arguing.

During the most recent Blizzcon, it was said that the developers feel they’ve swung too far in the direction of RNG. Azerite vendors were then brought in for the most complicated gearing system in WoW’s history. Can we please get vendors for conquest as well?

Will there be a way to target specific season 1 Arathi armor as it is hard to get the more elaborate pieces, like the plate chest with the blue cloak over it?
