Am i the only one that got really happy about the Runes and getting cool spells that choices, and is tired of playing the classic lite we have now?
Why not make a wild slot for lets say the neck… you can put ANY RUNE there. and that rune cant be repeated.
create new weapon runes that are not attached to damage…
i.e: misdirection, camouflage, cauterize, invisibility, cloak of shadows, spell reflect, and so on…
every phase i was excited waiting to see what new stuff we would get, and now is just more of the same… more gear bigger stats bigger numbers… and some quality of life that should be on day one…
there are armor slots with no runes
but we arent seeing new runes
almost 0 class updates
we have a few weeks to go of PTR so we can see some big changes - maybe they wanted to get the gear out there and sims updated before making changes. But we have seen 2h hunter get buffed and a few other things so there is also the chance they just arent making updates
SoD feels like its basically on life support at this point. A few people working really hard probably but the actual man hours put into it are nothing compared to retail… retail is just for the whales. Not many ppl play that either lol. Classic WoW was the real pop boon.

They stopped trying as gigantic masses of players left and I don’t blame them
because you dont get meaningful data for future iterations by instituting random buttons.
and you are in the minority the bulk of the player base in fact came for “classic lite”

Wrong… They stop when the 5 devs were asked to work on 4 other versions of wow.

That’s a good way to cope but not realistic. Once they saw that the masses didn’t return in numbers they wanted they stopped caring.

Nah, you are probably one of those that left once GDKP got banned. Amazing how SOD has been going pretty strong, even w/o GDKPs.

still think people left for external reasons, none left because of runes… this is delusion
Because doing this will just make priest and warrior better at what they’re already superior at doing. People will cry balance issues. Groups will exclude non-meta classes in favor of the optimal setup. Blah blah blah. SoD was doomed from the start with runes bringing weaker classes to baseline while launching the already top tier picks through the stratosphere.
SoD really shines a light on just how terrible the Classic experience is unless you’re a locked in sweat lord who hasn’t moved on from 2004. It’s not even a comparable experience since YouTube, streamers, addons, and modern gaming sensibilities make all the flaws of Classic and SoD that much worse.
Or we stop with the new abilities because we’ve more than enough and we focus on new content.
