So they can tail swipe and wing buffet in a form without a tail or wings…But evoker must be in dragon form

The fact that there are no monks for this, or even a possible update for the future for them for the dracthyr is incredibly irritating and disappointing.
It is one of the base classes along with the rest. I do not know why they are being excluded with the initial release. It is literally one of the things you I’ve been waiting on.
The only things I can think of are animations… Which, fine, but at least offer a possible update for it and don’t remain silent on it.

I’m so ready!!!
It’s replacing a node, not adding a new one. And it’ll probably just be one of those you’ll end up having to take in order to get down the rest of the tree anyway.
Eh? It’s no longer a choice node. Right now, you have to make the choice. You won’t have to make the choice once this goes into effect. You’ll be able to get both. If you have one now and they replaced Permeating Chill with one of them… you’ll get both.
If they swap positions, it’ll still be the same amount of points and you’ll probably have a better layout to get them anyway.
Wait to see what the talent tree looks like first.
Yeah I am also hoping for some sort of mention about them getting monks in the future. I would be hype

I will say again, cause why not: More visage forms, tauren, gnome, troll, dwarf, let us pick the visage like normal dragons
TBF, dracthyr are connected to the earth, not all elements, like Thrall was.
But they aren’t just because it would take more time to do totems
Yep. Very different animations and they’d have to figure out wing and tail animations with roll. The base skeleton already had animations for basic fighting and casting. Monks are pretty unique and wings and tail for things like roll make it even more complex. This is the easy implementation. I don’t expect anything in depth for anyone until this trilogy is over. They’re rushing everything.

I look forward to dracthyr mogging and overall model improvements being permanently on a backburner because they made this decision instead.

I don’t think it would be too difficult to just make evokers be able to fight in their Visage form. A simple fix for those that they really have no animation for without creating new animations would be to just have them transform into their dracthyr form while casting that spell, that could be really cool by itself. Transform, fire breath, transform back. Could even have just a dracthyr head or something like dragons breath for mage, I don’t know. A tougher, more meaningful, more appreciated fix, would just be to make new animations. They also need to add more races as a Visage form and they need to add more customizations, like one that most people would agree on which would be a beefier form for dracthyr form. They have so much more potential than what they currently are.

Imagine thinking I’m ever turning warmode on as a dracthyr (or really any other race but especially as the three neutral races)

Where is my Gnome Paladin?
I’m very happy for the flappy people but I have Gnomes that must be made!

Well, yes, but now they aren’t even lizards anymore.
They’re just burying their failure of a race design under visage forms instead.

Oh I agree its about the totems, but more to the point, Kul Tirans were Tide Sages, only connected to the water. You’re just splitting hairs at this point.

Nobody here is more people than there are forsaken players left since BFA (I also doubt it’s the same team handling expanding cross faction stuff)

Tier pieces should unlock more barbershop options, if nothing else.

Sigh, someday we’ll be able to actually wear armour.

Overall i’m happy with the announcement, but Warrior as the only tanking option is a major let-down. Even though i know it was a bit of a lore-stretch, I was really hoping for Paladin and/or Monk.
Guess I won’t be tanking any time soon.

We needed more class/race combos like a hole in the head. You already can’t balance the stupidly large number of such combos adding yet more will fail just like all the previous additions.
