I'm seeing everyone say "MONK GETS DOUBLE JUMP!!!!" all over the internet. But that's not what the patch note says. It says, "... allowing you to double jump TO DASH FORWARD..." As in you press jump twice to trigger the dash. It doesn't sound like you will jump twice. Rather you will dash in the middle of your normal jump. Just want to clarify before the community gets outraged and claims they removed the double jump later on.

As a Feral Druid main since freakin' MoP, I have a feeling that sometimes, developers that are in charge of the Cat really do NOT play the spec at all. Like, they're not testing it for themselves when applying these types of changes. Some changes are good on "paper" and "slowing" the spec down isn't that bad.. but! ARE YOU HAVING FUN WHILE PLAYING IT? Do you feel like a fuckin' ferocious predator tearing up your enemies/prey and shit? I don't think they play the class at all. It's like they're just watching it from the sidelines, look at the certain numbers (without comparing it to the performance of OTHER classes) and they just go like - "Hmmm. 20% increase of damage for a certain talent, for a brief period of time?! TOO MUCH. CUT THAT SHIT in half or something"... For years, Feral druids have been sweating really hard to actually get to the top 10 (depends on the expansion) on the damage charts (basically, to be viable as a dps) and DragonFlight Feral is the most fun I had in years playing El Gatto AND to actually feel viable, do big deeps, pump big time numbers and dps. It feels fun, basically. Hey, we finally got to the point that we can out-dps a freakin' Moonkin and to be more viable on some raid fights.... I dunno man... I'm torn in the middle on these changes... (Thank you for coming to my TEDtalk).

Blizzard's response on DK makes me worried even more. We were asking for 2H Obliterate to be as competitive as Breath, some were asking to remove Breath and replace it with something doesn't require glue, we were also asking to make D&D an aura, since other plates can hit and run at no loss while we can only watch in despair as tank drags everyone out of our placement. But instead of applying or advancing these, Blizzard's response seems more on "less breath duration time = less glue" and "we WILL make Vile Contagion, that shitty complex AOEr requiring four CDs to start dealing damage so you never used it ever, necessary again" than anything we asked for. Plus the Rider of Random Apocalypse? Oh boy I'm dreadful.

I’ve been wanting static flying for dracthyr ever since they came out. They have wings!! They should be able to use them!! Glad they finally listened

hearing about cataclysm and soulfire im glad that they're listening to the community for destro locks

Would love to see hunter talent tree in action

Druid devs are clueless and making the specs miserable since BFA ended. And that was eons ago.

I think Bliz forgot they have a shaman class again.

WINDWALKER HYPE! !!!!

Honestly, I would prefer not to wait for major damage abilities (or any damage ability) while playing feral. What makes me dangerous is the consistent application of bleeds and strikes. Waiting for those to become highlighted or available could negatively impact my experience.

@signsofkelani anyway you could do an overview of hunter hero talents and do you know if the hunter class order mount will have dynamic flight?

i like the general idea, just excited to see some of the details. several hero talent trees yet to be revealed too probably due to some of the pending spell changes.

I hope they will reduce the button bloat and make class rotations fun :) Affliction needs to be simplified in aoe :) Elemental shamans need a better concept to combine the elements rather than beeing either fire or lightning shaman. Their mastery is also kind of weird only working on builders (:

As usual, wait til its released then try each class. Chances are if you play alot of classes your picks will change based on which ones have been destroyed or improved. I loved essence font, its apparently going lol. So thats one of my classes and specs that will soon never be the same. Exciting and yet not exciting.

Can they like... stop ruining Druid please 😂 especially Feral 'Oh we think your energy regen needs to be slower' why though?

As an arms player I want overpower animation changed to something else it looks so stupid using dual wield animation when you have only one 2h weapon

Man if they're trying to make people excited for these changes I think they need to try again. Obviously subject to change.

hey kelani just letting you know that my dad told me last night that you're the only wowtuber he watches x)

They gutted the warrior. Why? It was perfectly fine!

so i played SoD and it was fun. never played a melee hunter. was interested in seeing some survival hunter play in the War within. actually i cant find anyone streaming the hunter builds at all

Little worried about how much I might need to relearn on my mistweaver... and seems I should just hold off till the expansion to learn windwalker if they are going to change it that much.

Essence font was my favorite button on miatweaver

cant wait to play my druid!

I actually used to love Feral back when it was slow and tactical. Maintaining your dots was such a massive priority that it made wasting energy feel very punishing and so you ended up with a slow but methodic playstyle that rewards patience and preparation. I don't feel every class needs to be fast and spammy. Having a variety of playstyles and speeds (apm) really makes the game more interesting because classes then have a much more defined identity with regards to how they feel to play.

So excited I maybe able to play Arcane again.

Whenever they play with Feral dps talents it’s always concerning, let’s see what happens I really hope I don’t need to main something else. I love feral!

Oh so we are getting back to Arms that needs to wait for Rage to come up? Not sure I like it

Orbital Strike needs LOVE!! It is a fantastic talent and would help with constant damage! A 1-point talent. A 15% damage reduction and a 90 second cool down.

i hope for hunter love

MONK HYPE

Oh, I love the new Druid Talent tree, except the Wild Charge position, oof!

Fury bladestorm back!

resto druid is fine the way it is now, leave it TF alone!

Seems like they're trying to reduce apm overall.

rip warrior again

As a feral main im not sure I'm happy with downtime feral Is naturally quick on the bat slowing it down means some what less dps

Button bloat sucks. They need to remove about half of all skills and tune the ones that are left.

Being a class that can't heal at all, other than a long cool down potion, I'd like to see the mages with a lot more power. All the classes that can heal, can do a ton more dps and survive a lot better. Glass cannon? Heck no, glass cruise missle

DEMO warlock hype

Survival hunter needs some love and affection.

Here we go, making feral feel energy starved. Why do they always screw up the only classes I like. Every. Single. Time.

as someone who use to play rogue and feral, more downtime just feels bad.

So going by the "melee range being standardized" guessing Ret is losing their long range melee. That's too bad was pretty fun.

Rest in peace Light of the Martyr...

the monk class tree looks so much worse in my opinion, you need to take transendance to access like half of the talents i think either transcendance should be moved somewhere else or there should be more connections to other talents so you can still take some talents in the middle without wasting a point on a useless ability

Bruh I just started feeling comfortable with my Druid 🤦🏻‍♂️ fs

What about guardian druid ?

If drakthyr could be other classes, I would race change all 15 of my alts immediately. But I just have no fun playing evoker and augment

unless they remove the ability bloat and 500 buttons to press for rotations i dont think anything will help.

Ugh I was finally happy with my druid, I really don’t know how I feel about that. Weren’t their new trees supposed to be evergreen and made to be expanded? Why are they changing/removing talents?!

If they don't start making marksman a marksman again, I'm gonna go nuts

What about Shaman!!! 😢😢😢

When are shaman going to get their damn hero talents?! Nothing mentioned about changes or their new talents. Makes me worried for enhance future

Enhance! Make it good please...

I love the elemental ancestor Idea for shamans, but the capstone talent is absolutely horrendous. Going to need some work on that tree.

as an unholy Dk I cant wait to have to drop down a floor aoe so my attacks can do area damage

Hunter remains on permanent ignore.

i guess shaman is the least loved class by the devs....

Feral having downtime? We havent had downtime since ages lol. I like it

Let me guess, all these removed talents are just being renamed hero talents.

They really hate mages. They really need a whole new system

they screwing up holy priest, perverted into being basically into being a buff bot moonkin, instead of a reactive pure healer that its supposed to be. They still havent fixed the slow cooldowns either (cd’s are too long and need either cd’s reduced or boost haste impact so it speeds up gcd). they have so much reliant on holy in mythics but dont build them able to handle them, forcing holy to have to over gear mythic before they can do it, rather than running it to improve gear which is effing backwards. Frustrating when all your buddies classes can advance in mythic and you cant until they or you eventually outgear lower keys to finally advance the holy priest.. and this is from a holy priest that is very well played too.. this is not skill, they mostly fixed holy damage dealing, but not mythic healing yet and turning them into rogue/moonkin buff buts in war within just pisses me off big time

Stupid blizzard, all classes simplified... like they haven't gotten this path in the past...

Personally I like slowing down classes a little bit so each ability feels a little more impactful. Sometimes trying to focus on the procs going off and maintaining buffs is overwhelming while also dodging or interacting with encounter mechanics

No hunter rework.

Feral Druid dev's are clueless. We dont want any more downtime as it feels at least for me booringly slow as it is even though Feral in Dragonflight is otherwise at very enjoyable spot, it's no longer automatic bench on Mythic Raids. Feel like they want make Feral worse and make its player count zero in TWW.

crazy how everyone in the comments cry for their class

I wish they didn't complicate stuff too much, we already have too many spell modifications and too many spells all in all. It's a too big a mess.

why showing paladin footage when talking about evokers and monks??? Come on Kelani...

Feral druid gonna be F tier. An auto attack class with low dmg. So sad to see its going back to classics style. Looks like another expansion my main gets laughed at.

ummm, is that horse galloping through the air like its jumping from stone to stone or something at the beginning?? because that looked pretty awesome and would be pretty awesome to see more variety in how things fly. and maybe someday theyll add a flying shoe you sit in like mario in kuribos shoe but it flies instead of just hopping. make it a leatherworking or tailoring made mount. also let bm hunters ride any of their pets. we play bm hunters because we love the pets! let us love them even more!

Hopefully Vengeance gets nerfed. The spec warps the M+ meta so badly.

Im starting to get PTSD flashbacks from.last several expansions shamans not getting any work and we end up garbage untested and minimally viable while mages get reviewed and updates constantly. Farseer is hot garbage for elemental and meh for resto.

Feral is miserable to play as is, you wait on energy way too much and they want to nerf energy regen??

The only keep making it worse its fucking wild I gave up on wow I went over to private server

thats what i hate in wow every expansion spell are changed rework but class get never balanced ...

They have to rename slayer to something cooler bruh, its so lame

Those Druid changes are garbage. Especially the Feral Druid ones.

hopefully i cans witch to warr in war with in and get invited in m+ :D I'm sick of pala

Still NOT liking the new talet trees. specially the prot pala one seems utterly trash for aoe tanking.

WoW is still relevant?

First

Monks get double jump? Then Druids and Evokers should too.

Hear me out.... I want a DK rework

Bunch of seasoned video game class design specialists in the comments today.

All i hear is garbage changes intended to make the specs weaker and less fun to play. Classic Blizzard.

Windwalker's mastery sucks ass. Combo strikes needs to die.

We need war within now..dragonflight sucks lets just move on from it
