Since Demon Hunters are the only class that can have Warglaives, can we have Outlaw Rogues be the only ones with a transmogable pistol or have a pistol as an offhand weapon? I get there are only 2 spells that use pistols but still would be awesome
Do we really need more class-specific stuff? Much less spec-specific. Just let them transmog guns and have the animation scale them down or something.
We got Pistol animation glyphs.
Any self respecting Rogue should have a knife in each hand.
I wield a SPORK!
Demon Hunters can have Warglaves because they can also use swords and axes. The fact that their signature weapon is non-existent before Legion doesn’t matter because they have mechanically identical alternatives.
You couldn’t do the same with pistols, because the only other one-handed ranged weapons are wands, amd wands aren’t common enough in past expansions because they’re meant to be interchangeable with int melee weapons. Just stat sticks you pair with an off-hand item.
Not to mention the fact that wands are Int weapons. Pistols would have to also be Int to be interchangeable, and no one wants to have to re-gear their outlaw rogue to scale with Int.
Personally, I would argue that yes, we do need more class-specific stuff.
Classes should feel and look distinct from each other.
I have to pass on that I hate those things, they look so awkward on your back
Survival hunters also use a mini-crossbow and it would be nice if they could mog that crossbow just like it would be nice to give options to outlaw rogues.
I second this, even if said pistol has no stats and is only cosmetic. I would like the ability to see my pistol clearly when using those abilities, and have it be something unique to me. Also, it would be nice to see hanging at my side when idle.
They were going to do stuff like this in WOD but they scrapped it.
Paladins were going to carry around a book that got more elaborate and decorated as you leveled. Each class had their thing. But it never got into the game. They only added the book cast animation to the paladin heal.
It’s a cool idea though.
I don’t think they should add it as a weapon, but they could add like cosmetic only holsters with unique pistols you end up using as a belt transmog for outlaw specifically.
Add librams for paladins. Etc
Things like that would offer a ton of flavor without impacting loot tables catastrophically.
Right? I mean look at holy pally artifact appearance, they got a book on their waist. Why not give outlaw rogues that option too? Also someone pointed out survival hunters with crossbows if that’s the case, let both classes and specs use guns and crossbows
Pass, I’m happy with my pair of rapiers.
I get why they have warglaives drop, but they are pretty disappointing particularly when you don’t have any DH to use them or when they are poorly itemized so that they don’t even want them. I had a smolderon kill in DF where 3 warglaives dropped and there were no DH’s in the raid.
If anything, I’d rather they just went away since there are plenty of other weapons they can use.
I get that it’s a fun idea and would be cool from a spec fantasy, but loot wise it wouldn’t be great.
Warlgaives being DH only is bad and stupid
Honestly. The pistol glyphs are a step in the right direction.
This opens up nice potential. Throwing weapons: Axes, Knives, Kunai, etc. Different gun types: Shotguns, Blunderbuss, etc.
Unfortunately the glyph system is horribly underused.
lmao.
I throw elf ears at my targets.
You already have tons of artifacts lol, what are you guys complaining
You do have 3 glyphs to change what your pistol looks like. Not sure if you can buy them from the Auction House though, or need a Public Order.
