So DF Cons atm, still hesitant to buy

Still feeling hesitant to buy Dragon Flight for these reasons and would like to hear what others have to say about it:

  1. Group loot instead of tradeable personal loot.
  2. Dracthyr can’t be transmoged and only have two visage forms.
  3. Dracthyr can only play a single class/ only two specs at that, also can’t tank. :confused:
  4. Visage form scales on skin still is creepy looking. Want to turn them off.
  5. Lack of shown end game? Not sure what the raids or dungeons are gonna be like.
  6. No new Battle ground, again. :frowning:
  7. So crafted gear, if it is gonna be expensive why would I want it over my M+ gear that is mythic level already? I have yet to see how that will work out.
  8. New talent trees, some classes need a bit longer in the over to bake.
  9. Tier sets looks went raid themed over class themed again. Just a personal opinion of not likening that art direction.

Got a case of once bitten, twice shy here.

You don’t have to have them, at least.

Most likely its going to be another case of “Don’t worry guys we’ll fix it later.”.

the “off” option doesn’t fully remove them.

Wait until patch 10.1.

The whole dragon riding thing sounds clunky and painful, dragon riding should be completely optional, and we should have unrestricted flight at max level on our regular mounts.

just dont prepurchase. Im not and Im loving the Beta. But I know how Ion likes to screw with crap before release. I just dont trust the man. I love it now, but who knows what he can pull a week before release to make me not want to play it.
Im waiting till its live, then I’ll buy if nothing goes south.

Is the first ranged caster class added to te game since it started 18 years ago. You had 3 new melee classes added, all of it with tank spec, for you enjoy during all those years.

Stop being greed and selfish, wanting only melee to be added in the game. Also more tank specs will not make more people play as tank. Making tanking truly fun and atractive for the current tank specs, is the solution.

This is exactly what I’m doing. I’m waiting until the day before to purchase because he royally screwed the playerbase with SL and how things were in Beta and then right at the end pulled the rug.

Nothing more greedy and selfish than wanting the whole new race to yourself.

Same boat. I haven’t bought it.

My cons;
The ‘body type’ instead of gender change
Personal loot removed
M+ gear still seeming to give higher ilvl vault rewards, so as a Heroic raider there’s still too much pressure to do M+
The M+ season 1 having recycled old dungeons that I hate( HoV )
The raid releasing near Christmas and only getting 2 weeks to level/prepare
The new class given we haven’t gotten more character slots
The new talent trees (going to be annoying to setup all my characters)
The fact I don’t see much to do outside of dungeon/raid/PvP
The profession system being over complicated (I haven’t bothered with them since WoD then they were simple and all make profits)

Over all, pretty disappointed so far.

Yea, the dracthur have been designed into a joke.
Everything else is not really xpac feature level of hype.

100% loot efficiency is never going to happen. You can’t keep being mad about it.

My advice?

DO NOT BUY NOW.

Wait for the first patch to be on PTR and test it yourself!

Trust yourself!

3 - irrelevant because of the classes they’ve added over the years.
4 - Why play dracthyr when all you want is “elf?” Might as well have gnomes look the same as elves so people can take advantage of racials and whatever.

Visage form shouldn’t even exist.

I think it is the last gasp before they throw in the towel when it comes to the war against flight.

I just want more tanks for the que mate, no need for the name calling.

This to me is the worst part of this whole new class/new race.

It feels more like they’re introducing an Overwatch Hero than a World of Warcraft Class and Race.

It would be like if Taurens had a class called Minotaur, and abilities about smashing their hooves on the ground and impaling things with their horns.

New tanking classes aren’t adding more tanks.
