SoWoW:Legion is confirmed for goty next year now that talents are back


http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/

theres even a fishing talent tree

15-20 new talents for each class, some of them are absolutely game changing:

>Lord of Flames (Rank 1) - Your Rain of Fire now also rains Infernals.
>Tearing Time and Space (Rank 1) - Your spells can punch holes in the walls of time and space, opening beneficial portals.
>And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Our Dead (Rank 1) - Your attacks have a chance to summon an Army of the Dead.
>The Reaping (Rank 1) - Owlkin Frenzy can periodically trigger without being hit.
>Fury of the Stormlord (Rank 1) - When you summon your Lightning Elemental, Thorim will crash down next to you, dealing damage to nearby targets and sending blasts of lightning towards all targets affected by Flame Shock.

just as an example of what these talents could do

what does /v/ think?

I also see a problem with the talents being TOO good, meaning why use any weapon that isn't an artifact? Why have bosses drop weapons as loot if artifacts are just better?

Are they atleast stepping stones to getting unique Artifact skins? Artifacts sounded nice but they are way too good, especially if going forward bosses won't drop armor because LOL MYTHICAL ARMOR SETS
>>
>>318032628
thats sorta the whole shtick of this expansion

it's better than items inflating the drop table if you already have a legendary item and will never replace (cata daggers, staff, mop cloak, wod ring)

it makes sense this expac because everyone gets the artifact
>>
>>318032672

there are different artifact skins for each facet of the game (pvp, cms, mythic raiding etc) and 4 colours for each skin so about 16 skins for each artifact weapon

On the bright side, Ret is looking good.

Really good.

A charge, a teleport-charge that does damage at an area, dealing DOUBLE normal damage if any party member dies near you, avenging wrath is now 50% bonus damage/healing, Holy Power might actually be worth a shit with new generators, not getting Forbearance on self, shit looks nice.

You can't judge old talent trees by paladins, Blizzard failed so miserably to make a paladin in wow compared to how fun and useful paladins were in diablo 2.

Rogues were the most complete class, hunter the least at the launch of wow by their own words.
>>
>>318035269
I just made an arms PVE build and it was completely brainless (assuming single target>aoe in general), the only 'choice' was what weapon type to use (considering how warriors work I assume that 2h axes are the best because of the +5% crit talent)

or are we talking about PVP here? give me a tree that is very flexible for me to see how 'godly' the old talents are and how they give me more choice than the new ones

This can't be real. Why would anyone let their own child influence on something they're making millions on? If the daughter is asking why she's wearing a swimsuit surely she's not old enough to understand what the themes are and could've just made a fucking lie like it's hot. If the daughter understand and asked why she was wearing a swimsuit she would've had to known how common this shit is, and why she exists. Either reason the nigga is wasting company resources because he feels guilty and can't talk to the family he probably ignores anyway.

I honestly don't give a shit though. The rule 34's already out and she looks kinda cool that way anyway.

>these smaller talents were supposed to represent player progression, you know, it was supposed to be an RPG somewhere down the line.
and that was fine for 2004 the problem is that the community became min-maxing for dungeons and raids, because they saw the min-maxing people on the top guilds and they wanted to be strong and have good gear too, it was an inevitable path

new games have this appeal to me that the metagame is a complete mess and you can get away with the most ridiculous shit, but unfortunately that only lasts for a while (same thing happened with League of Legends for me, the first year or so was way more fun than the rest for me because I could go 1v2 as Mordekaiser or Garen and wreck shit)

regardless, you still get passives along the way, and since there were plenty of +1% parry talents in WoW, I can say I prefer the newer system of getting something that isn't completely irrelevant every 2~5 levels

>Dual specialization is pure cancer and killed all immersion. They shouldve dealt with leveling problem with other means.
dual spec on release was not viable for leveling because of the cost, what it did was allow people to have an offspec and fill in raids more easily and more cheaply (in the long run)

It's time to move on and stop giving a shit about items' names color.

>>318035950
They're leaving the game in the longest content drought of all time, and they started developing Legion before releasing WoD. This is probably the xpac developed for the longest since Vanilla. They're dragging their feet if anything.

Demo Lock is all I care about.
>>
>>318036228
If they wanna keep the game alive for another decade its need a really good expansion reworking some of the shit theyve pulled over the years

This might mean putting it on life support for a while but in the long run the game could potentially have a second coming

Yeah you got a point there. Everyone followed a cookie cutter build including me. Still I miss slowly putting points into a passive until I finally unlock this new cool ability. Actually made me excited about being higher levels and kept me playing.
Its just for me personally the most fun I had in WoW was leveling. And I really miss all the commitment you had to do in order to interact with the world. And now they almost completely cut that part. Feels like Im playing a soulless grind machine which is all about reaching level cap as quickly as possible just to grind some more.
I wouldnt be surprised if they start selling level boosts for gold in the future

I don't know it feels like they try to add some variation but in the end it always ends up being a cookie cutter bullshit, especially if you're a pvp player like me. I haven't seen real talent variation in wow since TBC with shit like Restokin, elemental mage and Shockadin and half of the variation was there only because people had no idea wtf they're doing so you could shit on most scrubs with semi-optimal builds.

Also is it me or it feels like this shit is waay to spread all over the place. Stats, mastery/vers stacking, weapon talents, talents, pvp talents.

Considering they're waiting till September to release the new expansion, I'd at least want to put a little faith that mostly everything will remained untouched. They realized how bad of a fuck up WoD was, and Activision won't just let them roll over and die, knowing that it brings in the most revenue.

they are almost all universally shit in every game ever. The DPS loss (or just wiping in general because dead tank/heal) you would get from someone dying in a raid encounter would be overwhelming more significant than a shitty 10 second steroid for one person. It's a pvp talent at best.

In wow, the chance on hit thing essentially means once every X seconds.
Your intial chance to summon would be like 60%, then it activates a hidden CD, then it returns to 60% immediately afterwards. You'll always summon an army when you first start attacking.

The new combat had me pretty psyched.

All these new rogue talents really have me on the fence. They all seem very gimmicky and the reason why they removed talents in the first place.

Now we have
-'simplified' talents,
-glyphs,
-gems,
-artifact specs,
-pvp talents.

They should have just sticked with talent trees

There are still two perfectly ranged specs left for the hunter, and yes, a lot of people have wanted a melee hunter spec. Regardless of wether you like it or not, lots of people want it.
