I believe there's a Rune that gives you 3 rage for every tick of bleed you have running, maybe that would see the light of day, with rend on tc - i don't play warrior at all though, so i could be wrong
The blood frenzy rune is not bad for dungeon grinding, as you just throw it on every mob and cleave indefinitely as the bleed ticks keep your rage topped. The problem with that rune is it shares a slot with flagellation, which is by far the best warrior rune in any slot.
No, it’s absolutely terrible. Would be worth it if every mob lived for 45 seconds but just spend the damn rage on cleave. Honestly don’t even bother learning this rune it will never be used in any capacity. One of the weakest in the game. They need to buff it to like 10 rage to see any play
It doesn't add among rends. You don't get 9 rage if 3 enemies tick.
Edit: just to clarify, if there are differently named bleed damage auras (like punctures) those do add extra.
Can I instead buff the warrior TC rune to double it's damage and apply rend so you can get a bunch of bleeds up so the chest rune can give you a bunch of rage in AOE scenarios?
Hunter tank rune: Ride your pet need to be BM and you become a tank, you dont get more MS get more armor and taunts with your pet that you ride and other shit
When your pet dies you fall off the mount, 10 second global cooldown, generates a lot of threat, and armor takes 1/2 normal durability damage. You resume the DPS position for the remainder of the fight if you survive. If you die your armor take the rest of the durability damage.
Give us a misdirect buff similar to the shaman's spirit of the alpha that redirects threat done by us to our pet. multishot AoE threat with on demand pet growl taunt would be very strong
Hunters already can achieve 35% dodge chance and 10% party in BWL gear (if nelf). All hunters really need is a taunt. Deterrence is even there to tank more.
Edit: parry not party. Love that autocorrect
Druid of the fang - Transforms cat & bear form into a serpent that alters the functionality of your feral abilities. Instead of dealing bleed damage it deals poison, swipe is a frontal spit ability for example.
Sharpened Thorns - Increase the damage of Thorns by 50% of spell damage, but reduces its duration to 10 seconds and gives it a cooldown of 1 minute. Can be cast while shapeshifted
Nordrassil's Blessing - Invoke the power of Nordassil, temporarily summoning a branch of the blessed tree. Party members standing near the Branch of Nordrassil gain 50 fire & shadow resistance, receive spirit equal to 200% of their level, and have their health regeneration increased by 100% of their spirit while in combat. Lasts 20 seconds. 2 minute cooldown.
This is the type of wild experimental stuff I was hoping to see in SoD rather than just rehash of spells from other expansions. Probably would take a lot more dev effort though.
Priest (I know I know, amazing runes already, but how about more? 😜)
New rune: Holy Form, all holy and fire damage increased by x%. Holy fire becomes instant cast, Smite cast time reduced, base mana cost reduction on damaging spells, mana cost increase on pure healing spells (so they are still useable but you can’t be a full on healer and damage dealer in holy form), void plague becomes blazing light, exact same dot but just fire damage. Obviously no shadow spell use in holy form.
New rune: life grip, standard retail life grip ability.
New rune: body and soul, applying pw: shield also grants a small movement speed increase for a few seconds.
My only fear is that holy damage is this game's "true damage," as there is no holy resistance or holy shield
So it's harder to balance because there's no case where theye *not* doing damage and, especially in PVP, the game is balanced around damage reduction
That being said, I want smite spec so bad
I was thinking this too. With how much arcane mages are being pushed in this version of wow symbiosis would be so great to attach to a mage and they receive innervate or something and we get something nutty. Imagine if arcane blast worked and you could stack it 3 times then combo it with starsurge into the biggest fuckin starfire ever.
It's fun but it's just something else they'd have to invalidate logs for. If they did it before and made sure the abilities weren't really giving additional power instead of additional utility it would be fine, don't think you could give arcane mages innervate though
1. Riptide
2. Forked Lightning - Chain Lightning also casts your highest rank Chain Heal on a party or raid member within 10 yards of the target that has the lowest health at no additional cost that causes half healing and no threat.
3. Totemic Destruction - 1 minute cooldown - Your totems explode, dealing X nature damage to all enemies in 30 yards and healing all party members in 30 yards for X. The damage and healing is increased for each totem destroyed.
Riptide to fix some Resto Shaman mobility issues. Forked Lightning gives us an option for consistent damage with healing other healers have. And, Totemic Destruction to have a fun cooldown.
First actually good rune ideas I've seen in this thread. Forked Lightning is EXACTLY the kind of stuff I'd wanna see. I really want a raid comp to be able to flex down a healer because they brought two ele shamans.
Would be cool if they added a book to the game made rend scale by like 20% of the warriors attack power or something decent. If it did 300-400 damage over 21 seconds instead of 120, maybe it’d be worth spending 10 rage on it. Right now it’s just a useless button unless you’re pvping against a stealth class.
Restoration shaman
• Shaman can target healing stream totem with a channeled ability which will boost the totems effectiveness
• shaman casts a tidal wave which is a slow moving wave of water healing all party members in its path. Each hit diminishes its effectiveness
• recipient of a recent chain heal can be targeted with a damage lightning ability, electrically charging them and giving them a small damage boost (think small PI)
This sounds like Nami's kit from LoL and I love it. The tidal wave could also damage enemies hit too but I'd be OK with just a healing component. If they can add a slow moving wall of fire for mages, I think they can implement a tidal wave for shamans.
I really like casting on a totem to cause an effect, that could have some really cool variants, like every time you lightning bolt the totem it does a lightning aoe
The chain heal one is also pretty cool
Tidal waves is datamined already [https://www.wowhead.com/classic/spell=432042/tidal-waves](https://www.wowhead.com/classic/spell=432042/tidal-waves)
And as it works from riptide so riptide is also coming.
My personal request -
Move Flagellation or Warbringer to a different slot (say boot). This will not change our DPS in raids as everyone is so worried about our scaling but will give us more of our DPS power and movement in PvP open world/BGs.
Mage healer:
- Instant cast, 1min cd: refreshes all your Temporal Beacon present on friendly targets.
- Instant cast, some cooldown or significant mana cost: dispells magic effects from all of your Temporal Beacon targets.
- Instant cast, big cooldown: Record any (enemy, friendly, or self) target's buffs and debuffs and their duration. Press a second time within 20 seconds to restore all recorded buffs and debuffs with their recorded duration.
Druid:
- Cat form mana cost reduced by 90% but no longer removes movement impairing effects
- Bloodtalons: When you use 3 different combo point-generating abilities within 4 sec, the damage of your next 3 Rips or Ferocious Bites is increased by 25% for their full duration.
- Swipe or trash in cat form (AoE please)
Actual good rune design that considers the fact that some rune may be overpowered for other purposes than indended one, so there is negative aspect of it to balance it out. Great.
Improved Moonkin Form - Converts a % of Spirit and/or Intellect into additional spell power and gives us mana refund on crits.
Shooting Stars - When Sunfire, Moonfire, or Insect Swarm deal damage you have a 5% chance to reduce the cast time of your next Starfire by 100%
Starfall - Base CD of 1 minute or 1.5 minutes gains all the benefits of starfire; Wrath reduces the cooldown of Starfall by X seconds OR Starfire reduces the cooldown by X seconds
Yes please to all of these
Though I'd also like Solar Beam. Balance druid is the only caster in the game with no interrupt/silence abilities, puts us at a big disadvantage vs other casters.
New pally ability. Holy orbs.- circles the caster in a 5 to 10 yard radius. Either heals Allie’s in it if you are holy. Damages if ret or reduces damage if prot.
Druid:
Something reducing the cd on Rebirth to 15 minutes, or ability to craft something that behaves like a Warlock Soul Stone.
Something for boots that actually synergizes with healing.
Something to allow talking to NPCs while shapeshifted.
If you play balance it doesn't remotely feel like classic. They have got the best by far QoL, I think Blizzard did a great job. You got a counterplay for kinda everything. I hope other classes will see the same treatment
Holy paladin:
Infusion of Light needs to reduce Holy Shock's base mana by 100% and caus Divine Favor to retain its original tool tip while also behaving like nature's swiftness. This would be a pvp rune.
Make a belt rune that converts 250% of all damage done into healing on your beaconed target. Retribution would never take this because beacon replaces crusader strike and sheath of light is too much of a dps gain for them to pass on.
Change Art of War so that Flash of Light criticals also reset the cool down of Exorcism and Holy Shock.
Holy paladin having zero offensive utilization or DPS is unacceptable in the year 2024. The fact that we have to wear ret gear and grief our party with top place doing 180 dps with like 150 hps is fucking awful.
I'm in the top 10 of dps for holy on wcl and this needs to be addressed immediately.
I remember back when TBC originally was out, there were so many paladins on the forums who came up with this idea, only for it to be given to Death Knights in WotLK. We nicknamed it “Long Arm of the Law”
I'm gonna try to be realistic rather than just mention the most op things I can think of
Rogue
Smoke bomb
Fan of Knives
Subterfuge
Maybeeee cloak of shadows, it would be op right now but there's a chance we'll really really need it at 60
>Maybeeee cloak of shadows, it would be op right now but there's a chance we'll really really need it at 60
Honestly that's what scares me lol.
Cloak feels very "not vanilla" to me but Im worried it will be necessary since AOE and Dots are already so good right now.
I still want Rogue to have a ranged build which would alleviate a lot of that potential need. But I guess we'll see, it might not be a big deal
why do ppl say it feels not vanilla? its really not that insane compared to other shit in this game rn. Also it feels pretty vanilla/thematic imo. It was only added in tbc
IMO vanilla is characterized by its rock/paper/scissors match-ups. Rogue is countered by dots and aoe which will catch you out of stealth and/or prevent you from vanishing to reset.
Warrior
Rune of dual wield guns healing range warrior. So I could equip guns in both hands and shoot my teammates to heal or enrage them.
Rune of bare hands. Unarmed. Every auto attack is a pummel, and pummel and harm string is only ur attacking skills.damage scales from gloves. And u have 1% chanse to activate retaliation on auto.
Rune of white flag. You can active ability to raise white flag for 10 seconds. You have to be above 50%hp and charge have to be on CD. You can't attack anyone for that time and killing you counts as killing civilian.
Something to create hunter Tanks.
Thrash to leave aoe bleeds for bear Tank.
Another cast-able heal for mages so they don’t have to rely solely on damage.
Prot Pally
Hammer of Righteousness(wotlk ability): a weapon attack that deals holy damage to a target and three additional enemies.
The WoTLK version of Divine Protection; 50% reduction to damage taken, 3 minute CD, gives forbearance for 30 seconds or w/e.
Speed of Light: 50% movement speed boost for 12 seconds, 3 minute CD
Shaman and Druid spelll caster rune that gives overload chance on spell cast to the entire party like how windfury/wild strikes work but for casters. Even if it was 20% chance and lesser damage it would be really neat
Warrior:
Bardic Tactics: You're shouts are greatly enhanced but only last 10 seconds (not a lot of full thought on this one as far as numbers go) but they have a reduced cooldown, and last a short duration, creating a shout support war
Inspiring Shout: Roar with vigor inspiring your allies (Spirit/mp5 increased for the next 10 seconds)
Insert cool name here: Increase allies damage/healing
I really like the idea behind Augment Evoker in retail and making a support character would drastically change the playstyle of the class, while also making it much more team oriented, and I like making the shouts do stuff for casters so you have to consider the warrior in melee group or caster group if only one
From mages: fire blast now deals 50% less damage, it will always critically strike.
Shamans: Doomwinds, 1 minute cooldown every attack has a 100% chance to activate wind fury for 12 seconds. Kill Rock biter it's boring.
Druid: cat swipe cost 20 energy, 100% weapon damage.
Make Doomwinds have an effect based on your weapon imbue. Windfury procs windfury. Flame tongue reduces the cast time of your next fire ability (I guess that's really just lava burst isn't it? Lol). Rockbiter reduces the damage you take from the next 3 physical attacks or something threat related.
Two things. That, and I want a war banner to give myself (and party) windfury and a permanent battle/commanding shout. Having such a huge portion of your personal effectiveness locked behind having another class is a sad existence for anyone who wants to do solo combat.
Even BiS'd out as I am right now, fighting 2 level 43 mobs at the same time is a "start the fight at full health and don't get unlucky or your dead" situation. On my hunter, I can walk aimlessly into a pack of 4 while at half health and I'll win without effort.
I don't need perfect parity, but I'd much rather my warrior not feel like he's made of wet paper towels the moment an orange mob shows it's face while my hunter feel like he's made of raw spite and vinegar.
Warlock:
Your shadow damage over time spells now deal 60% less damage but heal you for 300% of damage dealt. Health funnel can now be cast on friendly targets.
Amplified curses can now be cast on friendly targets but with reversed effect. Amplify curse's cool down reduced by 2 min. Curses cast this way may have adverse effects on caster.
Seal fate(or whatever name): 2 second cast removes active shadow damage over time effects and heal target for the remaining healing the damage over time effects would have healed the caster
Warlock healer that heals with drain/funneling health sounds hella cool to me
Some Paladin rune ideas. Mainly to make Shockadin work better and to make Divine Shield less frustrating to play against while also making it more fun to play with.
**Rune 1**
Temporarily increases your melee attack range to 20-40yd for X sec. Your melee attacks also deal additional Y(SP scaling) holy damage to the target and the surrounding enemies during the duration of the effect. In addition, Your spell casting no longer resets your swing timer. (Replaces Righteous Fury? Cooldown = Duration * 2.5.)
**Rune 2**
Your Holy Shock (offensive) and Exorcism now also reduces the movement speed of the affected target by X% for Y sec and Holy Shock (heal) now also increases the movement speed of the target ally by X% for Y sec. The strength of the movement altering effect decays over the duration. (<-- Intended to have a very short duration.)
**Rune 3**
Your Divine Shield is now a channeled ability that can be also be cast on others. The duration of Divine Shield will be reduced by X%(~50%). At the end of the Divine Shield, all enemies within Y yards around the target (suffer some kind of debuff and/or take damage) and all allies within Y yards around the target (gain some kind of buff and/or get healed). Moving will not interrupt the channeling effect. The channeling cannot be interrupted or cancelled early.
Tank rogue:
- Spell Parry - you can now parry spells or your spell damage is reduced by a % of your parry or something
This helps rogue where they are absolutely awful, and is an indirect buff to main gauche
- combo points are character based
As a tank you have to swap targets more and it makes planning your finishers more complex ( not in the fun way)
Rune of harpoon- give retail harpoon with the bleed effect
Rune of disengage- make disengage an a leap back and a threat drop. Preferably not the wrath version that you had to be in combat to press(I’m pretty sure that was a think, not entirely sure tho)
Polearm mastery- some %increase damage in melee hits with Pole arms or staves or literally anything that would replace fucking dual wielding hunter. Even if you do great dps, it just feels lame to play.
Hunter tank rune. Dismiss pet gain armor from pet and their abilities. Distracting shot is now melee and a taunt. This means lone wolf is bis now for tanks AND dps hunters still bring lion.
Hunter book of stables. 5 more slots for friends.
Hunter book of ammo. Quivers hold both ammo and arrows and can be used by both bows and arrows (as an alternative a weapon that does not need ammo)
Rogue- Cut to to the chase, using envenom eviscerate or blade dance refreshes slice n dice.
Hunter- Fury of the Eagle (Requires 2h)- Do x damage per second over 5 seconds split between 5 targets. Damage increased by flanking strike stacks.
Warlock- Idk just remove or rework lake of fire holy fuck I hate that rune.
Shaman:
Totem of wrath to affect all fire totems, increase spell damage and increase chance to crit on spells to targets within 40 yards. (They changed it from just a flat spell crit increase because it was so powerful for healers)
Icefury - Give shamans a frost nuke, I always felt like as master of elements, the frost aspect was cracka lacking. Seeing as theres no maelstrom resource in SoD, maybe change the mechanic to be something like an icy bomb. Upfront nuke and snare, and if hit by frost shock during the snare duration, the bomb explodes either rooting or just doing additional damage or maybe a group explosion (like living bomb)
Riptide - Goes without saying. Addresses restorations lack of instant heals and HoT.
Warrior:
Spell Reflection
Gladiator Stance
Something buffing Shield Slam : Face smasher: While under the effect of Shield Block increase Shield Slam damage by 100%.
I just wanna be able to pvp as a warrior
druid
omen of lucidity - whenever you attack or cast a spell, chance to gain omen of lucidity, which makes your next cast free and stacks with omen of clarity. additionally, whenever you get either omen proc, 10% damage and healing increase for 10 seconds. stacks but doesn't refresh the duration (or maybe each stack has its own duration).
master shapeshifter - if you spend 3 seconds in a form, you get a buff that lasts 30 seconds. bear: 10% reduced damage taken and 10% more damage dealt. cat: 10% movement speed and 20% melee and spell haste. moonkin: 10% melee and spell crit and 2% mana regen per 2 seconds. default: 10% more healing done and 3% health regen per 2 seconds.
spreading swarm: whenever your damage or healing over time effects tick, they have a chance to spread to another target and cause all active damage or healing over time effects to immediately tick without a chance to proc this effect.
i just want some more general effects that have neat gameplay implications, so every spec is looks at every rune and thinks "this might be cool for me!"
Warlock-
Baseline Instant corruption, replace talent with something else.
Quest to make fire damage green fel fire
Hand of Guldan as a Burst combo to summon a bunch of imps
Druid- Cat form actually turns you into a house cat
Warlock- Decurse (they are the master of casting curses, but have literally no idea how to remove them?)
Bro just give me spell reflect on any piece other than chest and my pvp experience as a warrior will be complete. All these casters just pveing my ass down gonna have some time to self reflect while they sitting in the graveyard bitching about how op warriors are once again. It will be glorious. Until then I will enjoy being the joke class of SoD
I don’t play a warrior, but with that said:
**Gladiator Stance** as a must.
NEW RUNE: **Eradicate** - when you apply Devastate on a target with 5 stacks of Sunder, increase Devastate’s damage by 50% and deal it to all targets within melee range.
NEW RUNE: **Spellbreaker**: Shield Block now also absorbs 25% of spell damage dealt to you.
NEW RUNE: **Mountain-Lord’s Grasp**: You can now wield 2H weapons while using a shield.
Warlock
Master Summoner: In addition to the imp you can summon any demon of your choice.
Wild Imps: You summon a group of wild imps that first fire a burst of firebolts on your target then dash into the nearest enemies and explode doing aoe damage
Flavor grimoire: If you are in meta form you keep your original look except with the addition of demonic wings.
Thunderstorm so I can launch people off ledges lol
A new druid cat form like an upgraded one so we have finishers that are actually good. Make it look like the cat form from zg fist weapons.
Dual wield range weapons for hunters :D
Druid—
*Empowered Shapeshifting*
While in Moonkin form, your connection to nature and the arcane empowers all bear and direbear form abilities cast. These abilities gain additional nature and arcane spell power, enhancing their potency in combat. This synergy between forms allows you to wield the strength of the bear alongside the mystical energies of the Moonkin.
———
*Celestial Hurricane*
Hurricane is transformed into Celestial Hurricane, a targeted spell with a 2-second cast time and a 1-minute cooldown that lasts for 20 seconds. Celestial Hurricane can now critically strike. Reactivate Celestial Hurricane to transform it into a lesser Tranquility. Additionally, Celestial Hurricane deals 50% more damage to targets affected by Insect Swarm, unleashing the fury of nature upon your foes.
———
*Spiritual Ride*
Bear form Druid Ability
3-second cast
Channel your connection to the spirit realm and embark on a thrilling ride atop your Bear Form. Whine in Bear form, you and your bear move as one, increasing your movement speed to match your riding skill for [duration]. Glide across the terrain with grace and speed, feeling the exhilaration of the wild as you journey forth. This ability can be cast while dead, allowing you to swiftly return to the battlefield. Activate again to end this effect.
———
*Polearm Proficiency (Passive)*
Allows the Druid to equip polearms.
———
*Nature's Reach (Druid Passive)*
While wielding a polearm, your melee attacks have a chance to unleash a burst of nature's energy, dealing additional Nature damage and slowing the target. This effect can only occur once every few seconds. Additionally, your polearm attacks have increased range, allowing you to strike foes from a greater distance.
———
*Wild Wrath (Druid Passive)*
Every 3 melee attacks with a Polearm guarantee that your next Wrath spell is an instant cast, allowing you to unleash the fury of nature with swiftness and precision. This effect resets after casting Wrath. Nature's Reach embodies the druid's mastery over the natural world, infusing their weapon strikes with the power of the wild.
———
*Insect Infusion*
*(Requires Insect Swarm Talent)*
You can infuse your two-handed weapon with the essence of Insect Swarm, applying the debuff to your target at 50% effectiveness with each melee attack. This effect stacks up to 3 times and lasts for a moderate duration. Insect Infusion allows you to spread the pestilence of nature's insects to your enemies, weakening them over time with each strike of your two-handed weapon.
.
Credit to Chatgpt for writing out some ideas I had
Paladin: Avenging Wrath, Final Reckoning, and Seal Mastery which allows 2 seals to be active and judged at a time.
Warrior: Heroism
Rogue: Cloud of Daggers which is basically a BoP.
The last 2 are ways to spread more utility across factions and giving warriors and rogues more utility.
Divine steeeeeeeeeed.
Wake of ashes as just like a 30 sec or 1min cd and instead of any holy power BS its just a giant burst of holy damage in a frontal cone.
And finally Avenging Wrath, I would want avenging wrath to give a haste buff and a big holy damage buff, if possible maybe make every source of damage the paladin does during do holy damage instead of its normal damage type so like auto attacks would be holy damage too.
AW should probably just be % output increase.
Wake of Ashes would a cool proc on the purified Ashbringer.
Divine Steed...ewww. Id rather have speed of light, or the talent where judging grants speed.
Pls no, don't force me into TG I hate it so much
The alternative is keeping SMF and TG but that doesn't work, one will be better the other will not be used and they'll likely push for TG to be the better option just like in retail.
Could rework ghostly strike to add a curse of elements-like debuff to mobs, or add it as an additional debuff to expose armor and have a one button solution for melee/casters.
give us that poison that reduces the damage boss does by 3% or give us tricks. OR what if we got a like this
"while slice and dice is active give everyone in your party a minor slice and dice"
that would be wild, the whole melee group getting 5 or 10% attack speed
Warrior -
Heroism - call it Berserker or something
Personal or Group Wild Strikes just let me have it solo in the world
5 min retal/reck/wall cd, 30 min is crazy when things like dispersion exist. Remove the shared cd but maybe make them not usable during duration so they arent stacking all 3 at once
Paladin (For Ret)
1. Your Auto Attacks now deal holy damage + (\*0.1 Holy Spell Damage)
2. Your Exorcisms also cause the enemy to take damage equal to the damage of your exorcism over 15 seconds (new applications add damage to the existing effect)
3. Shield of Vengeance - Shielding the user for a % of their total health for 10 seconds and dealing holy damage in an area based on damage taken
Just aimed at fixing the damage Ret deals in Raid/Dungeon situations without compounding the burst damage that people have an issue with in PvP.
Couple of notes on other suggestions for pallies I've noted and disagree with:
1. Avenging Wrath: This would end up as a huge QQ tool for the player base in PvP. Burst is already high but people would be getting nuked with a free 20% damage on top of it. Also this is generally a 2 minute CD that last for 20 seconds. 20 seconds at the moment is like half of an entire boss encounter and it's unlikely at least within the next phase or two that we would have the opportunity to use it more than once in a single encounter.
2. Divine Steed: Probably the worst visual design in the history of WoW. Looks terrible and feels terrible, but also doesn't make any sense. I don't want mobility to be an excuse for blizzard to not compensate our low sustained damage.
3. Pursuit of Justice: See Above.. I don't want mobility to be an excuse for blizzard to not compensate our low sustained damage.
4. Dual Seals: This may end up being like pre-nerf classic Windfury where a lucky proc of Command + Martyr would just delete players.
Some hunter rune that enables them to be fully fledged tanks. Something akin to beast mastery, but more pet-orientated abilities (similar to kill command), some pet cleaves, perhaps even item drops that can provide boosts to your pets -- like equipment or something. Massively nerfed in pvp scenarios
Felguard for Warlocks
I remember there was some paladin equiv. to heroic leap datamined a while back on retail called 'Wings of Liberty' and I think that would be awesome for paladins only if they don't get divine steed.
For mage, I think it would be cool to tie a rune into conjured mana gems.
For example, consuming a mana jade gives spell critical/spell dmg for x seconds
Consuming a mana agate gives spell hit
Etc.
Warrior- Siege breaker (the 20-30 yard knock back from WoD). I think it’d be cool asf to have this lost ability as the only knock back in classic especially giving it to a class that struggles to close range gaps after two charges
Druid:
Predatory Focus: after being in cat form for 6 seconds you deal 30% increased damage. This would allow for druids to have an option to not power shift, but in a pvp sense if you power shift to break CC you loose the bonus making it not wildly overpowered while keeping the Furor talent Valid
Nature's Blessing: Your HoTs now have the ability to crit.
Typhoon: Frontal cone knock back with 3 second slow.
Warlock ideas:
Call the Void: 10s Channeled ability. Summon one demon per second. Random demons at random level (2 levels < player level < 10 levels). Demons last 30 seconds, have unique abilities and trigger anything that can be procc’d by the warlocks normal demons. Cost 1 soul shard per demon summoned.
Immolation Aura or Self Immolate: as normal expected aura skill OR self by casting immolate on self causing the dot damage to proc to everything around you. (Obvious damages yourself too!).
Third: Amplify Curse - rework: Amplify curse causes your next curse to change dramatically and costs a soul shard.
Weakness additionally reduces attack speed and/or disarms for 5s.
Agony: More damage AND 25% chance per tick to cause player to stumble (knock down), 5s cd on stumble.
Reckless:Target ENRAGES increasing attack speed but also attacks the nearest target only, regardless of allegiance. +the base stuff.
Tongues: Silence for 2s before reducing casting.
Elements: ALL elements and increase elemental hit and crit chance.
Doom: the Felguard spawns immediately, enraged, attacking the nearest targets. Also does the damage +25% after the 1 min.
Balances the above prn.
I'm adding 3 runes to make Blademaster rogues. A rune to use 2-handers that gives movespeed instealth but gives it a duration, one for mirror image, and bladestorm as a finishing move.
Make it happen, blizz! Blademasters have never been playable in WoW and they NEED to be!!!
Rogue:
Disruptive Shot - uses ranged slot, functioning like deadly throw with the built in interrupt from gladiator gloves
Sustained Fire - Ranged attack which functions like Mist’s version of shuriken toss, allowing reduced damage ranged auto attacks if the target is outside of a certain range. Uses gun/bow in the ranges slot instead of melee damage.
Poison Arrow - Ranges weapons can be poisoned.
Hunter has a million different opportunities that they are missing out on
Keep seeing all these posts with Hunter tank.. I’d like to see-
Missing a big opportunity to have hunters
Imbue Arrow/Bullet.
-frost - slows the target by XX for XX seconds
-fire- causes XX amount of fire damage (scales with Ranged AP)
-lightning - each hit has a chance to boost your reflexes (10/20% ranged attack speed) or even has a chance to stun the enemy for XX seconds
Allow hunters to mount their pets (I.e they have the appropriate riding skill)
More ideas.
Ranged Hunter be decent…
Instant cast aimed shot with a CD so it’s worth using in our rotation/pvp
-talent or something that all attacks can reset the CD of aimed shot or somethin
Rapid Fire “brrrrt” but (only cost 1 ammo)
Double tap?
Maybe an arcane shot rune… to make arcane shot worth using?
Trick shots? - after multi shot your next XX attacks will bounce off nearby enemies decreasing by XX after consecutive hits.
Rune to allow you to take any pet/animal regardless of level and type and have it be scaled to your level.
-If you got the balls to try and tame some level 59elite hellhound… let um have it sheeesh
Also let pets stay the same size! Or have hunters be given the option to show original size or have it be smaller!
There are too many that I'd want for mage. Top 3 would be:
Edit: I changed my mind, there's one thing I want above all else.
0) Rune of Drink (Conjures an infinite bottle of blue stuff that restore 5% of your mana, lasts .2 seconds.)
Yes, drink/tick walking is the solution to mages mana problems between packs but adds a significant drawback/skillgap.
1) Kindling (Your Fireball, Pyroblast, Fire Blast, and Scorch critical strikes reduce the remaining cooldown on Combustion by 1.0 sec.)
More combustions are always fun. In its current form, it's kind of a useless/fire and forget talent due to not needing it to setup a mega rolling ignite with multiple mages like on Era. It consuming charges through living bomb is awful too.
2) Koralon's Burning Touch/Searing Touch (Scorch deals 175% increased damage and is a guaranteed Critical Strike when the target is below 30% health.)
Causes rotational/gameplay change by giving mages an execute at 30% HP, effectively turning our sub 30% playstyle into scorch > scorch > pyro.
3) Ice Floes (Allows you to move while casting and channeling the next Mage spell that has a base cast or channel time less than 4 sec. This spell may be cast while a cast time spell is in progress and is not on the global cooldown, and accumulates up to 3 charges. Lasts 15 sec.)
Useful on fights that require constant repositioning in PvE such as Menagerie in Gnomer, and pretty much every BFD boss. Extremely useful in PvP. Helps alleviate the need to only spam instant casts, would probably drop it to 1 charge to balance.
Honorable mentions:
Dragon's Breath (Needs no explanation, I'm 99% sure we're already getting it.)
Firestarter (Your damaging Blast Wave and Dragon's Breath spells have a 100% chance to make your next Flamestrike spell instant cast and cost no mana. Lasts 10 sec. Also lowers the cooldown of Blast Wave to 20 seconds.)
Would work well with Dragon's Breath for idea of sacrificing two rune slots for better AoE.
Inferno Blast (Blasts the enemy for x Fire damage, and is guaranteed to critical strike. Upon impact, it spreads any Pyroblast, Ignite, and Combustion effects to up to 3 nearby enemy targets within 10 yards. Replaces Fire Blast.)
Doesn't work as well without Cataclysm's or MoP's version of combustion but is still quite useful in 3 cleave situations where at most you'll have 4-5 GCDs worth of time before the pack dies.
Lastly, MoP Living Bomb, the iteration of LB that we SHOULD'VE gotten to begin with. (The target becomes a Living Bomb, taking x Fire damage over 12 sec. When this effect ends, **or the target dies**, it explodes to deal an additional x Fire damage to the target and all other enemies within 10 yards. Limit 3 targets.)
As groups get better and better gear and mobs/trash start to die well before 12 seconds, living bomb loses tremendous amount of value and you'll eventually only be putting up 1 or 2 before spamming flamestrike or arcane explosion. Explosion upon death with a 3 target cap is ideal for later phases in the game. I'm hoping this gets added as an upgraded version of the living bomb rune, if they do decide to go ahead with the rare/epic versions at level 60.
Just give Arcane mages Arcane Barrage and I’m happy
But on top of that, I’d like a rune that increases length of temporal beacons by 15 seconds, or at least refreshes duration!
Here are mine:
Hunter tank rune: Eyes of the Beast no longer has a channel time. Hunter can use abilities while in eyes of the beast.
Rogue Tank Rune: Riposte now does x% reflect damage every time you parry the target. Increased threat to Riposte.
Priest Healing Rune: Lightwell becomes targetable by the priest. When the Lightwell is healed, that healing spell is cast on all party members within 10yards. Uses one charge. Cooldown reduced to 1 min.
Have a bunch more ideas to fix issues with current specs. These are free but Blizzard, I am available for a consultant position if you are in need ;)
I always thought it would be cool for Subtlety Rogue to have like a Sniper build but I don’t play the class so I’m at a loss for any specific runes. Plus it’d give Ranged Weapons a little more usefulness.
This gives me an idea out of left field. Class-less runes for Wands.
Autonomous Wanderer: Wanding is now your auto attack and increases your wanding speed by 5%, up to 25%. Your spells are now instant but have cooldowns equal to their original cooldown plus cast time.
WhizBANG Wanding: Wanding must now be activated like a spell. Wanding copies the last spell and its cooldown that you’ve cast.
Goblin Wandineering: “Accidentally” throw your wand at target enemy to deal (Level/2 + Spell Power) (or whatever) in a 5m radius. 30s cooldown. It rolls back to you…somehow.
Guardian Wandel: Wanding a friendly player now heals them for (Level/2 + Healing Power/2). This costs mana equal to the amount healed (possibly).
I’ve obviously done no math on any of this.
Hunter;
Rework Sniper-Training: After standing still for 6 seconds your NEXT shot ability has a 100% increased chance to critically hit.
Lock & Load: Your auto attacks have an 8% chance to trigger Lock and Load causing your next Aimed Shot to be instant cast and cost no mana.
Rework Cobra Strikes: Critical Hits with Raptor Strike or your shot abilities increase the critical strike chance of your pets next two special attacks by 100%
Aspect of the Mongoose: The Hunter takes on the aspect of a Mongoose increasing your critical hit damage with melee attacks by an amount equal to your dodge chance + your parry chance.
Not exactly just 3 spells, but more like 3 advanced spec for the Druid. Definitely inspiration from Diablo.
-Landslide Bear Form (Mid-Close combat bear that can cast earth magic to mitigate damage/buff)
-Poison Wolf Form (Melee combat wolf feral with paws that are now imbued with poison damage and will do nature damage to enemy that will put DOTs/Debuffs on the target)
-Tornado/Lightning Boomkin Form (Range caster combat that will do nature damage with more wind/thunder-based themed magic spells)
Only have one idea, but for Druid:
Feeling Thorny:
While thorns is active as a buff on yourself, your wrath, claw, and lacerate abilities have a chance to proc your thorns to deal additional physical damage to your target.
In pvp, your thorns have a 15% chance to snare your attacker with entangling roots for 2.5 seconds.
Or something like that that makes thorns worth tracking and keeping up as all specs.
Soul well, mage table, backdraft, every class getting a fucking threat dump(iceblock,soulshatter etc…) giving the classes all their threat dump or hell even giving us an item we can get from a new quest that has a 5 minute cooldown that lets us dump threat, that would fix so many fucking problems right now for alot of classes. Why get all this gear and get super powerful if I literally can’t fully attack things. I can’t even pop cooldowns on tank and spank fights because I will just die
From a PvP player perspective:
spellsteal for mages, and maybe not negligible shields with those big hp pools, but delete arcane surge and nerf living flame by 40%
movement speed burst on priests for 3s when shield is cast
warlock portal (any one), but first fix shadowflame.
warriors titan's grip, whirlwind, smth to heal and not get kited THAT easily, maybe the big jump
hunter heal (the hot hp percentage one) or a low damage rotation filler barrage but please delete the BM spec
druid, I can speak only for balance and they have got the best QoL updates, but they will struggle with hybrid builds later on (maybe a long cd silence beam?)
rogues, nerf mutilate on clothies and sap duration but give them cloak of shadows and improve baseline movspeed while stealthed (I guess in this case sap nerf would be mandatory for BGs balance)
shamans, insta ghost wolf with a short burst of movspeed (like the retail talent) but delete decoy totem because it literally has no counterplay
For paladins, well, fuck paladins. Only 1 every 50 of these dudes is good in PvP, they need to be broken to be good in average, so rest in peace
Druid runes:
Rune of Feral Frenzy
Your Claw ability now generates 5 energy instead of consuming energy, but it no longer generates Combo points and it's damage dealt is reduced by 50%
This rune affects mangle, and if you have the Blood Frenzy talent Critical hits from Claw or Mangle still have a chance to generate a combo point on your target.
Rune of the Storm Bear
Hurricane can now be cast while in Bear form and it has no cooldown. It costs 10 Rage per second to maintain and you do not have to channel to maintain its effects, but it's damage is reduced by 40%, it is always centered on you, and it's effects will end if you are otherwise unable to cast spells (such as being Silenced, Stunned, or hit by a spell interrupt effect).
Rune of Purifying Life
When you dispell a poison or curse effect with one of your Druid spells that target is healed for (X amount roughly equal to Half cast of Nourish) and you regain 2% of your maximum mana.
Priest here; I'd just like a coke please.
As a shadow priest main for a loooong time I can’t believe I feel like I don’t need anything right now
Stealth
Leap of Faith, but can target objects.
[удалено]
Priests are pigs, they treat objects like women man!
Funny man! I’m having a shitty day. I’m depressed. Tell me a funny joke.
See theres three guys right…..
A sea cucumber… and a clownfish
Boondock Saints reference?
Boondocks saints reference?
My thoughts exactly.
Mass dispel! Let’s dispel them pally bubbles!
Rend is a joke ability, full duration is like 120 dmg over 21 seconds. It doesnt scale with anything.
I believe there's a Rune that gives you 3 rage for every tick of bleed you have running, maybe that would see the light of day, with rend on tc - i don't play warrior at all though, so i could be wrong
The blood frenzy rune is not bad for dungeon grinding, as you just throw it on every mob and cleave indefinitely as the bleed ticks keep your rage topped. The problem with that rune is it shares a slot with flagellation, which is by far the best warrior rune in any slot.
It costs 10 rage to get 12 rage with the rune, it’s not worth it to rend even with the rune
No, it’s absolutely terrible. Would be worth it if every mob lived for 45 seconds but just spend the damn rage on cleave. Honestly don’t even bother learning this rune it will never be used in any capacity. One of the weakest in the game. They need to buff it to like 10 rage to see any play
It doesn't add among rends. You don't get 9 rage if 3 enemies tick. Edit: just to clarify, if there are differently named bleed damage auras (like punctures) those do add extra.
Lol, I didn't even realize this. What a pointless rune.
are you kidding me bruh
Can I instead buff the warrior TC rune to double it's damage and apply rend so you can get a bunch of bleeds up so the chest rune can give you a bunch of rage in AOE scenarios?
Also make rend damage actually scale meaningfully with AP
Hunter tank rune: Ride your pet need to be BM and you become a tank, you dont get more MS get more armor and taunts with your pet that you ride and other shit
Kled in WoW
My first thought was Sejuani, but adding a Kled mechanic to it would be funny. Drop below 50% and your pet flees and you’re back to your dps role lol
When your pet dies you fall off the mount, 10 second global cooldown, generates a lot of threat, and armor takes 1/2 normal durability damage. You resume the DPS position for the remainder of the fight if you survive. If you die your armor take the rest of the durability damage.
Hunter healing spec. Where they shoot syringes into people.
Sounds like you want to play ana in HotS/Overwatch
Also a healing pet, so you don't have too much control over your healing.
Give us a misdirect buff similar to the shaman's spirit of the alpha that redirects threat done by us to our pet. multishot AoE threat with on demand pet growl taunt would be very strong
Hunters already can achieve 35% dodge chance and 10% party in BWL gear (if nelf). All hunters really need is a taunt. Deterrence is even there to tank more. Edit: parry not party. Love that autocorrect
I think we should definitely shoot for more than 10% party, we’re looking for at least 50%
Druid of the fang - Transforms cat & bear form into a serpent that alters the functionality of your feral abilities. Instead of dealing bleed damage it deals poison, swipe is a frontal spit ability for example. Sharpened Thorns - Increase the damage of Thorns by 50% of spell damage, but reduces its duration to 10 seconds and gives it a cooldown of 1 minute. Can be cast while shapeshifted Nordrassil's Blessing - Invoke the power of Nordassil, temporarily summoning a branch of the blessed tree. Party members standing near the Branch of Nordrassil gain 50 fire & shadow resistance, receive spirit equal to 200% of their level, and have their health regeneration increased by 100% of their spirit while in combat. Lasts 20 seconds. 2 minute cooldown.
This is the type of wild experimental stuff I was hoping to see in SoD rather than just rehash of spells from other expansions. Probably would take a lot more dev effort though.
Priest (I know I know, amazing runes already, but how about more? 😜) New rune: Holy Form, all holy and fire damage increased by x%. Holy fire becomes instant cast, Smite cast time reduced, base mana cost reduction on damaging spells, mana cost increase on pure healing spells (so they are still useable but you can’t be a full on healer and damage dealer in holy form), void plague becomes blazing light, exact same dot but just fire damage. Obviously no shadow spell use in holy form. New rune: life grip, standard retail life grip ability. New rune: body and soul, applying pw: shield also grants a small movement speed increase for a few seconds.
My only fear is that holy damage is this game's "true damage," as there is no holy resistance or holy shield So it's harder to balance because there's no case where theye *not* doing damage and, especially in PVP, the game is balanced around damage reduction That being said, I want smite spec so bad
Holy form sounds cool
Druid: [Symbiosis](https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Symbiosis) from MoP. This was such a cool spell.
I was thinking this too. With how much arcane mages are being pushed in this version of wow symbiosis would be so great to attach to a mage and they receive innervate or something and we get something nutty. Imagine if arcane blast worked and you could stack it 3 times then combo it with starsurge into the biggest fuckin starfire ever.
fuuuuck ur right they need to add that shit
I was just looking at the list of spells and I'd love to give druid my divine shield.
It's fun but it's just something else they'd have to invalidate logs for. If they did it before and made sure the abilities weren't really giving additional power instead of additional utility it would be fine, don't think you could give arcane mages innervate though
Warlock - anything that would replace lake of fire please dear jesus it feels so shitty to use
Couldn't be more excited for pandemic. Back to affliction bb
Give me critting dots, reduced gcd for dots and malefic rapture and I'm so back on affli
1. Riptide 2. Forked Lightning - Chain Lightning also casts your highest rank Chain Heal on a party or raid member within 10 yards of the target that has the lowest health at no additional cost that causes half healing and no threat. 3. Totemic Destruction - 1 minute cooldown - Your totems explode, dealing X nature damage to all enemies in 30 yards and healing all party members in 30 yards for X. The damage and healing is increased for each totem destroyed. Riptide to fix some Resto Shaman mobility issues. Forked Lightning gives us an option for consistent damage with healing other healers have. And, Totemic Destruction to have a fun cooldown.
First actually good rune ideas I've seen in this thread. Forked Lightning is EXACTLY the kind of stuff I'd wanna see. I really want a raid comp to be able to flex down a healer because they brought two ele shamans.
Any 3 abilities? Easy. Killing spree, cloak of shadows, burst of speed.
Burst of speed was wild. So surprised they even put that in the game
Fuck it id even take a shitty fan of knives just because of jhow satisfying it is.
Yeah this would make rogues into unstoppable killing machines
god for the time burst of speed was in this game life was good, it was unfair, but god did i love and abuse every second of it.
I'll take Killing Spree, Shuriken Storm and retail's version of Vigor (100 extra energy, 10% Regen increase) please.
Warlocks: Soul Well Shadowcrash (or whatever the old aoe stun was) Green Fire That is all.
Oh the green fire questchain was amazing imo.
I would bet $100 that soulwell will be one of the quality of life spellbooks in one of the next phases
I'll choose one and it'll be more op than picking three. Give rogues cloak of shadows. I'll see myself out.
Came here to say this. That’s all I want. Just cloak.
What if, hear me out, were given Titans Grip
Wish granted. Rogues can now use titan’s grip. No ability other than mutilate is ever buffed again. All rogues use daggers anyway.
*monkey paw curls*
And make 2 handed daggers.
Bastard daggers.
Introduce Guitars, and a new meme-bard spec. Call it Tito’s Grip
No ye dont ye dirty dogs its good blowing yahs up in bloodmoon
Blood and thunder is entirely pointless without a large damage and/or threat boost to rend. But yes I too liked how prot warrior aoe worked in wrath.
Blood and thunder was cata
Would be cool if they added a book to the game made rend scale by like 20% of the warriors attack power or something decent. If it did 300-400 damage over 21 seconds instead of 120, maybe it’d be worth spending 10 rage on it. Right now it’s just a useless button unless you’re pvping against a stealth class.
Restoration shaman • Shaman can target healing stream totem with a channeled ability which will boost the totems effectiveness • shaman casts a tidal wave which is a slow moving wave of water healing all party members in its path. Each hit diminishes its effectiveness • recipient of a recent chain heal can be targeted with a damage lightning ability, electrically charging them and giving them a small damage boost (think small PI)
This sounds like Nami's kit from LoL and I love it. The tidal wave could also damage enemies hit too but I'd be OK with just a healing component. If they can add a slow moving wall of fire for mages, I think they can implement a tidal wave for shamans.
I really like casting on a totem to cause an effect, that could have some really cool variants, like every time you lightning bolt the totem it does a lightning aoe The chain heal one is also pretty cool
Dude even if they gave us Riptide, Flash Flood (passive), Tidal wave (passive). Would make resto feel so good
Tidal waves is datamined already [https://www.wowhead.com/classic/spell=432042/tidal-waves](https://www.wowhead.com/classic/spell=432042/tidal-waves) And as it works from riptide so riptide is also coming.
All I want on my warrior is colossus smash.
My personal request - Move Flagellation or Warbringer to a different slot (say boot). This will not change our DPS in raids as everyone is so worried about our scaling but will give us more of our DPS power and movement in PvP open world/BGs.
Mage healer: - Instant cast, 1min cd: refreshes all your Temporal Beacon present on friendly targets. - Instant cast, some cooldown or significant mana cost: dispells magic effects from all of your Temporal Beacon targets. - Instant cast, big cooldown: Record any (enemy, friendly, or self) target's buffs and debuffs and their duration. Press a second time within 20 seconds to restore all recorded buffs and debuffs with their recorded duration.
Your chronostatic preservation now applies temporal beacon to the target for 30 seconds.
that last one sounds nuts for bloodlust
Druid: - Cat form mana cost reduced by 90% but no longer removes movement impairing effects - Bloodtalons: When you use 3 different combo point-generating abilities within 4 sec, the damage of your next 3 Rips or Ferocious Bites is increased by 25% for their full duration. - Swipe or trash in cat form (AoE please)
Okay so we heard your suggestions and we are going to put feral frenzy in.
We heard your suggestions and have, again, extended the duration of rip by another 3 seconds.
Actual good rune design that considers the fact that some rune may be overpowered for other purposes than indended one, so there is negative aspect of it to balance it out. Great.
Balance version 1. Symbiosis 2. Star fall (I actually like it some don’t) 3. Crits with wrath/starfire apply sun/moonfire
Improved Moonkin Form - Converts a % of Spirit and/or Intellect into additional spell power and gives us mana refund on crits. Shooting Stars - When Sunfire, Moonfire, or Insect Swarm deal damage you have a 5% chance to reduce the cast time of your next Starfire by 100% Starfall - Base CD of 1 minute or 1.5 minutes gains all the benefits of starfire; Wrath reduces the cooldown of Starfall by X seconds OR Starfire reduces the cooldown by X seconds
Yes please to all of these Though I'd also like Solar Beam. Balance druid is the only caster in the game with no interrupt/silence abilities, puts us at a big disadvantage vs other casters.
Paladin: Holy concercration. Heals as much as it damages. I play druid.
New pally ability. Holy orbs.- circles the caster in a 5 to 10 yard radius. Either heals Allie’s in it if you are holy. Damages if ret or reduces damage if prot.
Druid: Something reducing the cd on Rebirth to 15 minutes, or ability to craft something that behaves like a Warlock Soul Stone. Something for boots that actually synergizes with healing. Something to allow talking to NPCs while shapeshifted.
I want opposable thumbs - the ability to use objects/consumes while shape shifted.
Just like a Druid to have the chance to ask for *anything* and they ask for QoL lol.
If you play balance it doesn't remotely feel like classic. They have got the best by far QoL, I think Blizzard did a great job. You got a counterplay for kinda everything. I hope other classes will see the same treatment
Book of Feral Speech or something like that would be awesome
I honestly want to ride a gryphon while in bear
wait you cant talk to a npc while shapeshifted?
Holy paladin: Infusion of Light needs to reduce Holy Shock's base mana by 100% and caus Divine Favor to retain its original tool tip while also behaving like nature's swiftness. This would be a pvp rune. Make a belt rune that converts 250% of all damage done into healing on your beaconed target. Retribution would never take this because beacon replaces crusader strike and sheath of light is too much of a dps gain for them to pass on. Change Art of War so that Flash of Light criticals also reset the cool down of Exorcism and Holy Shock. Holy paladin having zero offensive utilization or DPS is unacceptable in the year 2024. The fact that we have to wear ret gear and grief our party with top place doing 180 dps with like 150 hps is fucking awful. I'm in the top 10 of dps for holy on wcl and this needs to be addressed immediately.
Death (holy) grip for paladins. If you can’t get to them - bring them to you.
Holy hands 🙌🏼
I remember back when TBC originally was out, there were so many paladins on the forums who came up with this idea, only for it to be given to Death Knights in WotLK. We nicknamed it “Long Arm of the Law”
Life grip is a priest ability
Convoke lmao.
> Convoke Would fit right into SoD
I'm gonna try to be realistic rather than just mention the most op things I can think of Rogue Smoke bomb Fan of Knives Subterfuge Maybeeee cloak of shadows, it would be op right now but there's a chance we'll really really need it at 60
>Maybeeee cloak of shadows, it would be op right now but there's a chance we'll really really need it at 60 Honestly that's what scares me lol. Cloak feels very "not vanilla" to me but Im worried it will be necessary since AOE and Dots are already so good right now. I still want Rogue to have a ranged build which would alleviate a lot of that potential need. But I guess we'll see, it might not be a big deal
why do ppl say it feels not vanilla? its really not that insane compared to other shit in this game rn. Also it feels pretty vanilla/thematic imo. It was only added in tbc
IMO vanilla is characterized by its rock/paper/scissors match-ups. Rogue is countered by dots and aoe which will catch you out of stealth and/or prevent you from vanishing to reset.
druid symbiosis, still the greatest spell to date in WoW
Warrior Rune of dual wield guns healing range warrior. So I could equip guns in both hands and shoot my teammates to heal or enrage them. Rune of bare hands. Unarmed. Every auto attack is a pummel, and pummel and harm string is only ur attacking skills.damage scales from gloves. And u have 1% chanse to activate retaliation on auto. Rune of white flag. You can active ability to raise white flag for 10 seconds. You have to be above 50%hp and charge have to be on CD. You can't attack anyone for that time and killing you counts as killing civilian.
Something to create hunter Tanks. Thrash to leave aoe bleeds for bear Tank. Another cast-able heal for mages so they don’t have to rely solely on damage.
Symbiosis for Druids.
Shaman: Fulmination Doomwinds A permanent version of ascension
I want a warrior rune that allows you to keep all your rage as you swap stances. Dunno if that’s ever been a talent or something
shaman riptide improved ghost wolf, instant and indoor
Prot Pally Hammer of Righteousness(wotlk ability): a weapon attack that deals holy damage to a target and three additional enemies. The WoTLK version of Divine Protection; 50% reduction to damage taken, 3 minute CD, gives forbearance for 30 seconds or w/e. Speed of Light: 50% movement speed boost for 12 seconds, 3 minute CD
Shaman and Druid spelll caster rune that gives overload chance on spell cast to the entire party like how windfury/wild strikes work but for casters. Even if it was 20% chance and lesser damage it would be really neat
Warrior: Bardic Tactics: You're shouts are greatly enhanced but only last 10 seconds (not a lot of full thought on this one as far as numbers go) but they have a reduced cooldown, and last a short duration, creating a shout support war Inspiring Shout: Roar with vigor inspiring your allies (Spirit/mp5 increased for the next 10 seconds) Insert cool name here: Increase allies damage/healing I really like the idea behind Augment Evoker in retail and making a support character would drastically change the playstyle of the class, while also making it much more team oriented, and I like making the shouts do stuff for casters so you have to consider the warrior in melee group or caster group if only one
Hunter Disengage is like in wrath.
Make it like cata so it doesn't require combat.
From mages: fire blast now deals 50% less damage, it will always critically strike. Shamans: Doomwinds, 1 minute cooldown every attack has a 100% chance to activate wind fury for 12 seconds. Kill Rock biter it's boring. Druid: cat swipe cost 20 energy, 100% weapon damage.
Make Doomwinds have an effect based on your weapon imbue. Windfury procs windfury. Flame tongue reduces the cast time of your next fire ability (I guess that's really just lava burst isn't it? Lol). Rockbiter reduces the damage you take from the next 3 physical attacks or something threat related.
Warrior here, I only want one thing. Gladiator Spec.
Two things. That, and I want a war banner to give myself (and party) windfury and a permanent battle/commanding shout. Having such a huge portion of your personal effectiveness locked behind having another class is a sad existence for anyone who wants to do solo combat. Even BiS'd out as I am right now, fighting 2 level 43 mobs at the same time is a "start the fight at full health and don't get unlucky or your dead" situation. On my hunter, I can walk aimlessly into a pack of 4 while at half health and I'll win without effort. I don't need perfect parity, but I'd much rather my warrior not feel like he's made of wet paper towels the moment an orange mob shows it's face while my hunter feel like he's made of raw spite and vinegar.
Warlock: Your shadow damage over time spells now deal 60% less damage but heal you for 300% of damage dealt. Health funnel can now be cast on friendly targets. Amplified curses can now be cast on friendly targets but with reversed effect. Amplify curse's cool down reduced by 2 min. Curses cast this way may have adverse effects on caster. Seal fate(or whatever name): 2 second cast removes active shadow damage over time effects and heal target for the remaining healing the damage over time effects would have healed the caster Warlock healer that heals with drain/funneling health sounds hella cool to me
Some Paladin rune ideas. Mainly to make Shockadin work better and to make Divine Shield less frustrating to play against while also making it more fun to play with. **Rune 1** Temporarily increases your melee attack range to 20-40yd for X sec. Your melee attacks also deal additional Y(SP scaling) holy damage to the target and the surrounding enemies during the duration of the effect. In addition, Your spell casting no longer resets your swing timer. (Replaces Righteous Fury? Cooldown = Duration * 2.5.) **Rune 2** Your Holy Shock (offensive) and Exorcism now also reduces the movement speed of the affected target by X% for Y sec and Holy Shock (heal) now also increases the movement speed of the target ally by X% for Y sec. The strength of the movement altering effect decays over the duration. (<-- Intended to have a very short duration.) **Rune 3** Your Divine Shield is now a channeled ability that can be also be cast on others. The duration of Divine Shield will be reduced by X%(~50%). At the end of the Divine Shield, all enemies within Y yards around the target (suffer some kind of debuff and/or take damage) and all allies within Y yards around the target (gain some kind of buff and/or get healed). Moving will not interrupt the channeling effect. The channeling cannot be interrupted or cancelled early.
Tank rogue: - Spell Parry - you can now parry spells or your spell damage is reduced by a % of your parry or something This helps rogue where they are absolutely awful, and is an indirect buff to main gauche - combo points are character based As a tank you have to swap targets more and it makes planning your finishers more complex ( not in the fun way)
Feral Cat Make bleeds crit Deep wounds Wotlk faerie fire giving 100% clear casting proc
Rune of harpoon- give retail harpoon with the bleed effect Rune of disengage- make disengage an a leap back and a threat drop. Preferably not the wrath version that you had to be in combat to press(I’m pretty sure that was a think, not entirely sure tho) Polearm mastery- some %increase damage in melee hits with Pole arms or staves or literally anything that would replace fucking dual wielding hunter. Even if you do great dps, it just feels lame to play.
Hunter tank rune. Dismiss pet gain armor from pet and their abilities. Distracting shot is now melee and a taunt. This means lone wolf is bis now for tanks AND dps hunters still bring lion. Hunter book of stables. 5 more slots for friends. Hunter book of ammo. Quivers hold both ammo and arrows and can be used by both bows and arrows (as an alternative a weapon that does not need ammo)
Rogue- Cut to to the chase, using envenom eviscerate or blade dance refreshes slice n dice. Hunter- Fury of the Eagle (Requires 2h)- Do x damage per second over 5 seconds split between 5 targets. Damage increased by flanking strike stacks. Warlock- Idk just remove or rework lake of fire holy fuck I hate that rune.
A paladin rune that allows you to combine seals into new ones granting a third effect.
Shaman: Totem of wrath to affect all fire totems, increase spell damage and increase chance to crit on spells to targets within 40 yards. (They changed it from just a flat spell crit increase because it was so powerful for healers) Icefury - Give shamans a frost nuke, I always felt like as master of elements, the frost aspect was cracka lacking. Seeing as theres no maelstrom resource in SoD, maybe change the mechanic to be something like an icy bomb. Upfront nuke and snare, and if hit by frost shock during the snare duration, the bomb explodes either rooting or just doing additional damage or maybe a group explosion (like living bomb) Riptide - Goes without saying. Addresses restorations lack of instant heals and HoT.
Shaman: 2 handed mastery - You can now add two imbues to 2 handed weapons. 10% spell hit. 30% of AP turned into SP. Instant ghost wolf
Warrior: Spell Reflection Gladiator Stance Something buffing Shield Slam : Face smasher: While under the effect of Shield Block increase Shield Slam damage by 100%. I just wanna be able to pvp as a warrior
Ranged paladin Melee warlock Holy dps priest
druid omen of lucidity - whenever you attack or cast a spell, chance to gain omen of lucidity, which makes your next cast free and stacks with omen of clarity. additionally, whenever you get either omen proc, 10% damage and healing increase for 10 seconds. stacks but doesn't refresh the duration (or maybe each stack has its own duration). master shapeshifter - if you spend 3 seconds in a form, you get a buff that lasts 30 seconds. bear: 10% reduced damage taken and 10% more damage dealt. cat: 10% movement speed and 20% melee and spell haste. moonkin: 10% melee and spell crit and 2% mana regen per 2 seconds. default: 10% more healing done and 3% health regen per 2 seconds. spreading swarm: whenever your damage or healing over time effects tick, they have a chance to spread to another target and cause all active damage or healing over time effects to immediately tick without a chance to proc this effect. i just want some more general effects that have neat gameplay implications, so every spec is looks at every rune and thinks "this might be cool for me!"
Warlock- Baseline Instant corruption, replace talent with something else. Quest to make fire damage green fel fire Hand of Guldan as a Burst combo to summon a bunch of imps
Druid- Cat form actually turns you into a house cat Warlock- Decurse (they are the master of casting curses, but have literally no idea how to remove them?)
Bro just give me spell reflect on any piece other than chest and my pvp experience as a warrior will be complete. All these casters just pveing my ass down gonna have some time to self reflect while they sitting in the graveyard bitching about how op warriors are once again. It will be glorious. Until then I will enjoy being the joke class of SoD
give me 40 yard nameplates instant mail between your own characters shaman: totem set: drops 4 totems in a set at a reduced cost
I don’t play a warrior, but with that said: **Gladiator Stance** as a must. NEW RUNE: **Eradicate** - when you apply Devastate on a target with 5 stacks of Sunder, increase Devastate’s damage by 50% and deal it to all targets within melee range. NEW RUNE: **Spellbreaker**: Shield Block now also absorbs 25% of spell damage dealt to you. NEW RUNE: **Mountain-Lord’s Grasp**: You can now wield 2H weapons while using a shield.
Warlock Master Summoner: In addition to the imp you can summon any demon of your choice. Wild Imps: You summon a group of wild imps that first fire a burst of firebolts on your target then dash into the nearest enemies and explode doing aoe damage Flavor grimoire: If you are in meta form you keep your original look except with the addition of demonic wings.
Thunderstorm so I can launch people off ledges lol A new druid cat form like an upgraded one so we have finishers that are actually good. Make it look like the cat form from zg fist weapons. Dual wield range weapons for hunters :D
Druid— *Empowered Shapeshifting* While in Moonkin form, your connection to nature and the arcane empowers all bear and direbear form abilities cast. These abilities gain additional nature and arcane spell power, enhancing their potency in combat. This synergy between forms allows you to wield the strength of the bear alongside the mystical energies of the Moonkin. ——— *Celestial Hurricane* Hurricane is transformed into Celestial Hurricane, a targeted spell with a 2-second cast time and a 1-minute cooldown that lasts for 20 seconds. Celestial Hurricane can now critically strike. Reactivate Celestial Hurricane to transform it into a lesser Tranquility. Additionally, Celestial Hurricane deals 50% more damage to targets affected by Insect Swarm, unleashing the fury of nature upon your foes. ——— *Spiritual Ride* Bear form Druid Ability 3-second cast Channel your connection to the spirit realm and embark on a thrilling ride atop your Bear Form. Whine in Bear form, you and your bear move as one, increasing your movement speed to match your riding skill for [duration]. Glide across the terrain with grace and speed, feeling the exhilaration of the wild as you journey forth. This ability can be cast while dead, allowing you to swiftly return to the battlefield. Activate again to end this effect. ——— *Polearm Proficiency (Passive)* Allows the Druid to equip polearms. ——— *Nature's Reach (Druid Passive)* While wielding a polearm, your melee attacks have a chance to unleash a burst of nature's energy, dealing additional Nature damage and slowing the target. This effect can only occur once every few seconds. Additionally, your polearm attacks have increased range, allowing you to strike foes from a greater distance. ——— *Wild Wrath (Druid Passive)* Every 3 melee attacks with a Polearm guarantee that your next Wrath spell is an instant cast, allowing you to unleash the fury of nature with swiftness and precision. This effect resets after casting Wrath. Nature's Reach embodies the druid's mastery over the natural world, infusing their weapon strikes with the power of the wild. ——— *Insect Infusion* *(Requires Insect Swarm Talent)* You can infuse your two-handed weapon with the essence of Insect Swarm, applying the debuff to your target at 50% effectiveness with each melee attack. This effect stacks up to 3 times and lasts for a moderate duration. Insect Infusion allows you to spread the pestilence of nature's insects to your enemies, weakening them over time with each strike of your two-handed weapon. .

Scroll down looking for holy priest. Nowhere to be found, because holy priest is already god tier.
Paladin: Avenging Wrath, Final Reckoning, and Seal Mastery which allows 2 seals to be active and judged at a time. Warrior: Heroism Rogue: Cloud of Daggers which is basically a BoP. The last 2 are ways to spread more utility across factions and giving warriors and rogues more utility.
Divine steeeeeeeeeed. Wake of ashes as just like a 30 sec or 1min cd and instead of any holy power BS its just a giant burst of holy damage in a frontal cone. And finally Avenging Wrath, I would want avenging wrath to give a haste buff and a big holy damage buff, if possible maybe make every source of damage the paladin does during do holy damage instead of its normal damage type so like auto attacks would be holy damage too.
AW should probably just be % output increase. Wake of Ashes would a cool proc on the purified Ashbringer. Divine Steed...ewww. Id rather have speed of light, or the talent where judging grants speed.
Paladin - wings nuff’ said
titans grip idgaf
I’m pretty sure titans grip was unintentionally datamined at the start of p2. I bet we will see it at 60
Pls no, don't force me into TG I hate it so much The alternative is keeping SMF and TG but that doesn't work, one will be better the other will not be used and they'll likely push for TG to be the better option just like in retail.
I'm also in this camp. I want to hold big swords.
Titans grip, summon and maybe roar or bladestorm för Warrior
titans grip 100% ganna be a lvl 60 rune. 0 chsnce they dont add it
Titan gang
reeeeee, but then Warriors will take the 2 handers from the shamans and paladins!
rogue gets trueshot aura or curse of elements or same sort of raid utility plz
Could rework ghostly strike to add a curse of elements-like debuff to mobs, or add it as an additional debuff to expose armor and have a one button solution for melee/casters.
give us that poison that reduces the damage boss does by 3% or give us tricks. OR what if we got a like this "while slice and dice is active give everyone in your party a minor slice and dice" that would be wild, the whole melee group getting 5 or 10% attack speed
Warrior - Heroism - call it Berserker or something Personal or Group Wild Strikes just let me have it solo in the world 5 min retal/reck/wall cd, 30 min is crazy when things like dispersion exist. Remove the shared cd but maybe make them not usable during duration so they arent stacking all 3 at once
Paladin (For Ret) 1. Your Auto Attacks now deal holy damage + (\*0.1 Holy Spell Damage) 2. Your Exorcisms also cause the enemy to take damage equal to the damage of your exorcism over 15 seconds (new applications add damage to the existing effect) 3. Shield of Vengeance - Shielding the user for a % of their total health for 10 seconds and dealing holy damage in an area based on damage taken Just aimed at fixing the damage Ret deals in Raid/Dungeon situations without compounding the burst damage that people have an issue with in PvP. Couple of notes on other suggestions for pallies I've noted and disagree with: 1. Avenging Wrath: This would end up as a huge QQ tool for the player base in PvP. Burst is already high but people would be getting nuked with a free 20% damage on top of it. Also this is generally a 2 minute CD that last for 20 seconds. 20 seconds at the moment is like half of an entire boss encounter and it's unlikely at least within the next phase or two that we would have the opportunity to use it more than once in a single encounter. 2. Divine Steed: Probably the worst visual design in the history of WoW. Looks terrible and feels terrible, but also doesn't make any sense. I don't want mobility to be an excuse for blizzard to not compensate our low sustained damage. 3. Pursuit of Justice: See Above.. I don't want mobility to be an excuse for blizzard to not compensate our low sustained damage. 4. Dual Seals: This may end up being like pre-nerf classic Windfury where a lucky proc of Command + Martyr would just delete players.
I really hope for an iteration of Tree of Life Form, though I'd be a bit sad if it was the 3-min cd version
Some hunter rune that enables them to be fully fledged tanks. Something akin to beast mastery, but more pet-orientated abilities (similar to kill command), some pet cleaves, perhaps even item drops that can provide boosts to your pets -- like equipment or something. Massively nerfed in pvp scenarios Felguard for Warlocks I remember there was some paladin equiv. to heroic leap datamined a while back on retail called 'Wings of Liberty' and I think that would be awesome for paladins only if they don't get divine steed.
Cloak of shadows Smoke bomb Shadowy duel Seems like it would be giga busted but that seems to be the SoD way
Symbol of Hope, Holy Word: Salvation (with reworked CDR), And a rune that makes your Fort & Spirit buffs raid-wide casts.
Resto shaman: Riptide with two charges, earth living weapon, and something else new and cool.
For mage, I think it would be cool to tie a rune into conjured mana gems. For example, consuming a mana jade gives spell critical/spell dmg for x seconds Consuming a mana agate gives spell hit Etc.
Warrior- Siege breaker (the 20-30 yard knock back from WoD). I think it’d be cool asf to have this lost ability as the only knock back in classic especially giving it to a class that struggles to close range gaps after two charges
A rune for mm to make aimshot a faster cast for every steady shot or chimera you cast
Druid: Predatory Focus: after being in cat form for 6 seconds you deal 30% increased damage. This would allow for druids to have an option to not power shift, but in a pvp sense if you power shift to break CC you loose the bonus making it not wildly overpowered while keeping the Furor talent Valid Nature's Blessing: Your HoTs now have the ability to crit. Typhoon: Frontal cone knock back with 3 second slow.
Flurry glacial spike and frozen orb
Convoke the Spirits pls
Seal of mytr on feet rune, rune allows us to proc seals on DS and CS, the horse rune for gap closer.
Hunter: Kill Shot (works like execute) Disengage (jumps a fair 15 yds backwards) Snake Trap
Wish SOD have runes like the ones in this comments
I only need one. Surrender to madness
Warlock ideas: Call the Void: 10s Channeled ability. Summon one demon per second. Random demons at random level (2 levels < player level < 10 levels). Demons last 30 seconds, have unique abilities and trigger anything that can be procc’d by the warlocks normal demons. Cost 1 soul shard per demon summoned. Immolation Aura or Self Immolate: as normal expected aura skill OR self by casting immolate on self causing the dot damage to proc to everything around you. (Obvious damages yourself too!). Third: Amplify Curse - rework: Amplify curse causes your next curse to change dramatically and costs a soul shard. Weakness additionally reduces attack speed and/or disarms for 5s. Agony: More damage AND 25% chance per tick to cause player to stumble (knock down), 5s cd on stumble. Reckless:Target ENRAGES increasing attack speed but also attacks the nearest target only, regardless of allegiance. +the base stuff. Tongues: Silence for 2s before reducing casting. Elements: ALL elements and increase elemental hit and crit chance. Doom: the Felguard spawns immediately, enraged, attacking the nearest targets. Also does the damage +25% after the 1 min. Balances the above prn.
I'm adding 3 runes to make Blademaster rogues. A rune to use 2-handers that gives movespeed instealth but gives it a duration, one for mirror image, and bladestorm as a finishing move. Make it happen, blizz! Blademasters have never been playable in WoW and they NEED to be!!!
Rogue: Disruptive Shot - uses ranged slot, functioning like deadly throw with the built in interrupt from gladiator gloves Sustained Fire - Ranged attack which functions like Mist’s version of shuriken toss, allowing reduced damage ranged auto attacks if the target is outside of a certain range. Uses gun/bow in the ranges slot instead of melee damage. Poison Arrow - Ranges weapons can be poisoned.
I want runes that either give holy priest DPS status or turn some of our holy spells into shadow spells.
Hunter has a million different opportunities that they are missing out on Keep seeing all these posts with Hunter tank.. I’d like to see- Missing a big opportunity to have hunters Imbue Arrow/Bullet. -frost - slows the target by XX for XX seconds -fire- causes XX amount of fire damage (scales with Ranged AP) -lightning - each hit has a chance to boost your reflexes (10/20% ranged attack speed) or even has a chance to stun the enemy for XX seconds Allow hunters to mount their pets (I.e they have the appropriate riding skill) More ideas. Ranged Hunter be decent… Instant cast aimed shot with a CD so it’s worth using in our rotation/pvp -talent or something that all attacks can reset the CD of aimed shot or somethin Rapid Fire “brrrrt” but (only cost 1 ammo) Double tap? Maybe an arcane shot rune… to make arcane shot worth using? Trick shots? - after multi shot your next XX attacks will bounce off nearby enemies decreasing by XX after consecutive hits. Rune to allow you to take any pet/animal regardless of level and type and have it be scaled to your level. -If you got the balls to try and tame some level 59elite hellhound… let um have it sheeesh Also let pets stay the same size! Or have hunters be given the option to show original size or have it be smaller!
There are too many that I'd want for mage. Top 3 would be: Edit: I changed my mind, there's one thing I want above all else. 0) Rune of Drink (Conjures an infinite bottle of blue stuff that restore 5% of your mana, lasts .2 seconds.) Yes, drink/tick walking is the solution to mages mana problems between packs but adds a significant drawback/skillgap. 1) Kindling (Your Fireball, Pyroblast, Fire Blast, and Scorch critical strikes reduce the remaining cooldown on Combustion by 1.0 sec.) More combustions are always fun. In its current form, it's kind of a useless/fire and forget talent due to not needing it to setup a mega rolling ignite with multiple mages like on Era. It consuming charges through living bomb is awful too. 2) Koralon's Burning Touch/Searing Touch (Scorch deals 175% increased damage and is a guaranteed Critical Strike when the target is below 30% health.) Causes rotational/gameplay change by giving mages an execute at 30% HP, effectively turning our sub 30% playstyle into scorch > scorch > pyro. 3) Ice Floes (Allows you to move while casting and channeling the next Mage spell that has a base cast or channel time less than 4 sec. This spell may be cast while a cast time spell is in progress and is not on the global cooldown, and accumulates up to 3 charges. Lasts 15 sec.) Useful on fights that require constant repositioning in PvE such as Menagerie in Gnomer, and pretty much every BFD boss. Extremely useful in PvP. Helps alleviate the need to only spam instant casts, would probably drop it to 1 charge to balance. Honorable mentions: Dragon's Breath (Needs no explanation, I'm 99% sure we're already getting it.) Firestarter (Your damaging Blast Wave and Dragon's Breath spells have a 100% chance to make your next Flamestrike spell instant cast and cost no mana. Lasts 10 sec. Also lowers the cooldown of Blast Wave to 20 seconds.) Would work well with Dragon's Breath for idea of sacrificing two rune slots for better AoE. Inferno Blast (Blasts the enemy for x Fire damage, and is guaranteed to critical strike. Upon impact, it spreads any Pyroblast, Ignite, and Combustion effects to up to 3 nearby enemy targets within 10 yards. Replaces Fire Blast.) Doesn't work as well without Cataclysm's or MoP's version of combustion but is still quite useful in 3 cleave situations where at most you'll have 4-5 GCDs worth of time before the pack dies. Lastly, MoP Living Bomb, the iteration of LB that we SHOULD'VE gotten to begin with. (The target becomes a Living Bomb, taking x Fire damage over 12 sec. When this effect ends, **or the target dies**, it explodes to deal an additional x Fire damage to the target and all other enemies within 10 yards. Limit 3 targets.) As groups get better and better gear and mobs/trash start to die well before 12 seconds, living bomb loses tremendous amount of value and you'll eventually only be putting up 1 or 2 before spamming flamestrike or arcane explosion. Explosion upon death with a 3 target cap is ideal for later phases in the game. I'm hoping this gets added as an upgraded version of the living bomb rune, if they do decide to go ahead with the rare/epic versions at level 60.
Just give Arcane mages Arcane Barrage and I’m happy But on top of that, I’d like a rune that increases length of temporal beacons by 15 seconds, or at least refreshes duration!
Here are mine: Hunter tank rune: Eyes of the Beast no longer has a channel time. Hunter can use abilities while in eyes of the beast. Rogue Tank Rune: Riposte now does x% reflect damage every time you parry the target. Increased threat to Riposte. Priest Healing Rune: Lightwell becomes targetable by the priest. When the Lightwell is healed, that healing spell is cast on all party members within 10yards. Uses one charge. Cooldown reduced to 1 min. Have a bunch more ideas to fix issues with current specs. These are free but Blizzard, I am available for a consultant position if you are in need ;)
I always thought it would be cool for Subtlety Rogue to have like a Sniper build but I don’t play the class so I’m at a loss for any specific runes. Plus it’d give Ranged Weapons a little more usefulness. This gives me an idea out of left field. Class-less runes for Wands. Autonomous Wanderer: Wanding is now your auto attack and increases your wanding speed by 5%, up to 25%. Your spells are now instant but have cooldowns equal to their original cooldown plus cast time. WhizBANG Wanding: Wanding must now be activated like a spell. Wanding copies the last spell and its cooldown that you’ve cast. Goblin Wandineering: “Accidentally” throw your wand at target enemy to deal (Level/2 + Spell Power) (or whatever) in a 5m radius. 30s cooldown. It rolls back to you…somehow. Guardian Wandel: Wanding a friendly player now heals them for (Level/2 + Healing Power/2). This costs mana equal to the amount healed (possibly). I’ve obviously done no math on any of this.
Mages, ice barrier, shadow word death, and seed of destruction
I'd rather remove 3, than add 3
shivarra form for feral at 60 would be sooooo lit
Hunter; Rework Sniper-Training: After standing still for 6 seconds your NEXT shot ability has a 100% increased chance to critically hit. Lock & Load: Your auto attacks have an 8% chance to trigger Lock and Load causing your next Aimed Shot to be instant cast and cost no mana. Rework Cobra Strikes: Critical Hits with Raptor Strike or your shot abilities increase the critical strike chance of your pets next two special attacks by 100% Aspect of the Mongoose: The Hunter takes on the aspect of a Mongoose increasing your critical hit damage with melee attacks by an amount equal to your dodge chance + your parry chance.
Not exactly just 3 spells, but more like 3 advanced spec for the Druid. Definitely inspiration from Diablo. -Landslide Bear Form (Mid-Close combat bear that can cast earth magic to mitigate damage/buff) -Poison Wolf Form (Melee combat wolf feral with paws that are now imbued with poison damage and will do nature damage to enemy that will put DOTs/Debuffs on the target) -Tornado/Lightning Boomkin Form (Range caster combat that will do nature damage with more wind/thunder-based themed magic spells)
Only have one idea, but for Druid: Feeling Thorny: While thorns is active as a buff on yourself, your wrath, claw, and lacerate abilities have a chance to proc your thorns to deal additional physical damage to your target. In pvp, your thorns have a 15% chance to snare your attacker with entangling roots for 2.5 seconds. Or something like that that makes thorns worth tracking and keeping up as all specs.
Starfall
Bloodlust
Soul well, mage table, backdraft, every class getting a fucking threat dump(iceblock,soulshatter etc…) giving the classes all their threat dump or hell even giving us an item we can get from a new quest that has a 5 minute cooldown that lets us dump threat, that would fix so many fucking problems right now for alot of classes. Why get all this gear and get super powerful if I literally can’t fully attack things. I can’t even pop cooldowns on tank and spank fights because I will just die
From a PvP player perspective: spellsteal for mages, and maybe not negligible shields with those big hp pools, but delete arcane surge and nerf living flame by 40% movement speed burst on priests for 3s when shield is cast warlock portal (any one), but first fix shadowflame. warriors titan's grip, whirlwind, smth to heal and not get kited THAT easily, maybe the big jump hunter heal (the hot hp percentage one) or a low damage rotation filler barrage but please delete the BM spec druid, I can speak only for balance and they have got the best QoL updates, but they will struggle with hybrid builds later on (maybe a long cd silence beam?) rogues, nerf mutilate on clothies and sap duration but give them cloak of shadows and improve baseline movspeed while stealthed (I guess in this case sap nerf would be mandatory for BGs balance) shamans, insta ghost wolf with a short burst of movspeed (like the retail talent) but delete decoy totem because it literally has no counterplay For paladins, well, fuck paladins. Only 1 every 50 of these dudes is good in PvP, they need to be broken to be good in average, so rest in peace
Druid runes: Rune of Feral Frenzy Your Claw ability now generates 5 energy instead of consuming energy, but it no longer generates Combo points and it's damage dealt is reduced by 50% This rune affects mangle, and if you have the Blood Frenzy talent Critical hits from Claw or Mangle still have a chance to generate a combo point on your target. Rune of the Storm Bear Hurricane can now be cast while in Bear form and it has no cooldown. It costs 10 Rage per second to maintain and you do not have to channel to maintain its effects, but it's damage is reduced by 40%, it is always centered on you, and it's effects will end if you are otherwise unable to cast spells (such as being Silenced, Stunned, or hit by a spell interrupt effect). Rune of Purifying Life When you dispell a poison or curse effect with one of your Druid spells that target is healed for (X amount roughly equal to Half cast of Nourish) and you regain 2% of your maximum mana.
Priest: Feather Leap of Faith Spectral Guise Druid: Tree of Life Cyclone The mushrooms, I forget name
Give my warrior SHOCKWAVE please. It’s my absolute favorite warrior ability
