right, that’s kind of a whole nother issue this could help fight, where some hero specs are just complete nothing.
If they added an option for each spec that was INTENDED to be highly nontransformative like this, then they have more wiggle room to make the more disappointing options more interesting. Make herald of the sun more than just some passive benefits for retribution, really push the flavor of the specs to where they feel as cool as things like rider of the apocalypse
monk is another good example. You add a third hspec for each cspec, you can have the new hspecs for, lets say, brewmaster and windwalker, simply lean further into fists and feet, while shado pan could evolve to be a weapon wielding monk, so blademasters can finally be a legit option for players, aside from just “blademaster themed transmogs for warriors”
