Maybe You Should Rename The Farseer Hero Talent Tree

Why?

Because Farseer is already the Class Title for Shamans.

If you’re a Shaman and you did your Class Hall stuff, you’re a Farseer.

But if you choose the Farseer Hero Spec, you’re a Farseer.

So this creates some weird situations where not all Farseers can be Farseers, and some Farseers may choose not to be Farseers, and maybe there will even be some Farseers who never got to their Class Hall so they never became Farseers, etc.

I would love if it had the hero talent tree bit as part of your description when you hover over someone.

only tauren worship their heretical sun god, yet I can still be a herald of the sun.

I mean, if you look at Stormwind’s Cathedral Square flags, you will see they represent a sun.

And it’s been like this since Vanilla.

So I imagine the sun is a powerful source of Holy Light, not just regular light lol

I don’t know, Blood elves are very Sun oriented as well.

Praise the sun :man_shrugging:t2:

They aren’t very logical, are they?

the suns a ball of flaming gas, not actual holy light.

blood elves sip swimming pool water for all their magic, I wouldn’t trust anything they have to say.

My solution to this is, shaman keep the farseer title until they put a point in one of the other hero trees, and if they do that the Farseer title gets replaced with a spec appropriate title.

Actually, let’s give all the hero specs an appropriate title

It’s like a doctorate. They gave you honorary Farseer-hood so that you could lead the class hall, but now you’re putting in the hours hitting the books so you can earn it for real.

Slayer is also the class title for Demon Hunters, but a hero spec for Warriors. So the characters who can have the title Slayer and the characters who can use the abilities of Slayers are completely separate.

But there are other things with history that could be used.

For instance, if they renamed “Farseer” to “Spiritwalker”, we could have both Farseers and Spiritwalkers, instead of just Farseers and Farseers² lol

And honestly, “Spiritwalker” is a way better name for a thing based on Spirits than “Farseer” lol

So there will be some Farseers who see farther than other Farseers making them the Far-Farseers.

Especially since they’re ancestral spirits, which were specifically a Tauren thing in WC3, while the main Farseer was Thrall, an Orc.

The spec doesn’t see any farther than anyone else. But it walks with a heck of a lot of spirits.

It would be Elemental/Restoration Farseer Shaman or Farseer Elemental/Restoration Shaman.
