Hey Blizzard,
I wanted to bring up something that’s been on my mind – Death Knights get their weapon enchants through Runeforging for free, while the rest of us are spending anywhere from 5k to 45k gold for enchants. That doesn’t feel super fair.
I get that Runeforging is a cool, unique DK thing, but it would be more balanced if they had to spend something on it, whether it’s gold or materials, like everyone else does for weapon enchants. It doesn’t have to be a huge cost, but some kind of investment would level the playing field.
Hope you’ll consider this and thanks for taking the time!

To be fair, you are thinking exactly like Blizzard. So I guess I see your point. Trust me, its hurting this time around. I got 2 two-handers plus a one-hander for Tanking to enchant on this dude alone.
But this is not the way to solve that issue. Don’t punish the good. Instead fix the bad.
The problem isn’t DK runeforging being free.
The problem is current economy is gigantically inflated. And professions are prohibitive. THAT is what needs fixing.

I entirely agree with this sentiment, rune forging should probably cost them a cap off their runes since its literally forging a rune into the weapon or an enchant. I spent well over 30k to enchant my weapon this season.

As a person that mains hunter and has to pay for his weapon enchants (scopes or what ever ) but also alts with a DK .
My response to that is NO NO PLEASE GOD NO

No, it shouldn’t. We ditched spells having reagents a long while ago and thank the titans for that.

Get bent
Signed, someone who plays more than just a DK. You gain nothing from DKs being forced to spend money. If anything, the price would potentially jump since now there are more people seeking “your” enchant and thus driving the price up.
Don’t see me whining that druids get to mount up instantly or mages get to teleport to any major expansion hub they want willy nilly.

I totally agree, but that’s only gonna happen if the bots come back, you can see that from how the economy is right now even on the higher pop servers. the token price is low and the items are actually worth farming. it seems the Microsoft AI is actually getting rid of them quickly

I agree.
And while we’re making changes to classes, hunter pets shouldn’t have growl. Other ranged classes do not have pets to help tank for them, so it’s unfair that hunters do. Hunters should have to learn to kite like everyone else. It’s also not fair that they get to heal their pet instantly with a HoT while Locks have to channel a heal onto them that costs them health, so that should be a channel like the Lock heal and it should cost them health.

go back to hunters having to carry ammo around and devoting a bag slot just for ammo first.

I’m glad we agree. We can go a little farther in the name of fairness though. They also shouldn’t get to tame pets either, since it’s not really fair to locks that they get to pick their pets.

Also, ammo has to be purchased with the old auction house interface where you can accidentally buy 1 bullet. Every bounce or serpent sting autofired is a bullet, multishot is like 12, and volley eats the whole stack. Lastly, only stacking up to 200, and add in an 8 yard minimum on all abilities.

How about, making a character that can enchant or join a guild that only has you get the mats needed for enchanting?

And different types of food.
And let’s be realistic here. Hunters should have to carry dedicated water supplies just for their pet. Also bowls. Let’s add grooming materials too.
Oh and they have to pay for medications and a monthly fee to simulate a vet. In fact, the character should be without their pet and locked in a stasis field to simulate sitting in the vet.
Oh and it’s 6 digits of gold and OP gets a middle finger for having this thread/spiteful idea.

As a warlock main bring back shard bags and shard farming. The class fantasy is fantastic but classic just isn’t difficult enough for me to have fun with it. The little things like someone being dedicated enough to farm their shards outside of raid separate the players that don’t care or try from the players that do.

Only 3 stable slots, too, none of this multiple pets at a time malarky. And half your talents only work if you manually level a pet up from 3 to 80.
