The future of Season of Discovery (after phase 8)

Greetings fellow adventurers!

Season of Discovery was an amazing journey (in my opinion) and it was more fun compare to other classic modes of the game.

Here are the things and features I would like in the future of SoD beyond phase 8 (if developers are able to continue working on it.) If not, then I’m still happy with what we got so far! Thank you to all talented developers who worked on making SoD :slight_smile:

#1. Transmogrification. Why not? Mind as well. I think it would be awesome to be able to change your character appearance!

#2. Undead paladins, dwarf shamans, human/undead hunters.

#3. PVP Arenas and new BG, maybe higher pvp rankings with amazing rewards.

#4. Solo challenge dungeons/raids. What do I mean? Say you have full BiS and you want that elusive mount that you never see drop or lose the roll on it. With solo challenge you will be able to obtain that mount 100%, catch is, you have to find a way how to solo that boss in dungeon or a raid.

#5. Ok this might be controversial but I would like to have achievements.

#6. Bag space is a problem for many. Introducing void storage. You can opt in to have your items to be looted into a void storage that has 1000 slot bag space and can be accessed via bank npc or a toy with one hour cooldown.

#7. All transmog and mounts will be copied into retail wow. Imagine how many retail players would hop in SoD just to get Ashbringer transmog or Zulian tiger mount! I know I would :slight_smile:

#8. Obviously more new zones/quests/secret quests/runes/raids/dungeons/cosmetics etc.

Lets keep the Season of Discovery active and live and continue our journey together!
In my opinion, SoD is Classic +, we don’t need another one. Just keep on working on this mode, adding more awesome stuff in the game :slight_smile:

Let me know what you think of this list. What would you like to see in the future of SoD?

Cheers everyone :slight_smile:

does it have new content?

it makes the toons unidentifiable by what they wear.

I thought it’d be cool but i really wish it didn’t exist in retail.

What about a toggle? So the folks who like it can see it, those who don’t can turn off… Turn it off in bgs, etc

if on my screen it displays others unmogged, i’d love that.

What about a store bought mount, would the toggle work for that?

we cant transmog mounts.

all mounts are what they look like already.

Honestly, just keep Classic as it is—maintain the classes and how they work in 1.12. Add new content very slowly—I mean slowly—like new dungeons, items, recipes, and areas. But fix the things that made Classic not fun, such as certain classes being irrelevant. Don’t implement the rune system; what a load of bollocks that is. It destroyed Classic classes, at least to me. I just want Classic with some new content and fixes—just more to do, not redesigned like into Retail.

And this is the problem, I respect your opinions, but I can’t go back to classic abilities…

Might as well* sorry, that one bothers me.

The whimsical asian aesthetic is not appealing to me. Anything post-cataclysm is not the Azeroth I want to be a part of.

Here’s the thing - Classic Andies who want unmodified gameplay have Anniversary, Era, and Hardcore to enjoy. It doesn’t make sense from a business PoV for Classic+ to abandon the players who have grown accustomed to the greater depth of gameplay of SoD, who would drift to WoW’s competitors, in favor of trying to overly pander to Anniversary players who are already playing Anniversary.

I’m going to snip off the rest of that dungeon/raid business and say, I would love to see more solo fights like Khonsu. Ashbringer is also a solo fight, haven’t experience it myself yet since I haven’t crafted an Ashbringer yet. More stuff like that would be great. Imagine a solo fight for casters to upgrade your Atiesh, as the sort of counterpart to the Ashbringer solo fight. :thinking:

The problem is that not all classes are equal in soloing dungeons. For example, rogues can solo even some naxx raid bosses (on lowest difficulty, but still), when most of cloth dps can’t kill solo even gnomeregan 1st boss. It should be balanced for every class, and balancing challanges for every class takes too much efforts.

It’s not a problem anymore with 30 slot bags. You have 140 slots in your bags + 204 slots in bank with full 30-slot bags, i think in sod it’s enough for everything, and cosmetics items (such as undermine reals toys) are already put in keyring and don’t consume bag slots.
