The best thing about War Within (and Dragonflight; sort of...) is that Preach seems to like WoW again. Good times!
Mid Shadowlands I really thought the game was dying. People have said that as hyperbole many times before, but between Korthia tanking and most activity being based around some form of Classic, it really seemed to set it in stone for me that the project was winding down. If you compare the community sentiment at the end of Shadowlands vs the end of Dragonflight, it's remarkable what Blizzard have pulled off over the last year. Now they just need to give us a good story.
@@Conorp77 Wholeheartedly agree!
@@Conorp77 Yeah as much as Dragonflight is fun, the main issue is the only thing I cared about was the talents system and the dragonriding. It lacked hype the way Legion did, or even BFA and Shadowlands, War Within seems to also lack hype as well. A lot of people thought the cinematic was dull and uninspiring, it felt like one of the side cinematics from BFA tbh rather than Sylvanas vs Bolvar or Anduin storming Lordaeron.
Which means the game is pretty good. And that’s even better news!
@@Snagprophet i think they gotta earn the hype back. In a lot of ways SL had an issue with them trying to generate unearned narrative tension and hype around characters and plotlines people just did not care about. I think they are taking the right approach with DF and beyond of sort undergoing a soft reset on the narrative so they can actually start telling a new story and earn those big moments that everyone enjoyed from the past.
Whether or not they stick the landing is another question altogether of course.
Thanks god! Preach is giving classes impressions again❤
That is the major reason I sub to him! I hope he continues!
Can’t pick a main until all the impression videos have been watched
I believe the 4 horseman get spawned in order from top to bottom, so you can always track which one is coming next and play around it. not entirely a passive “leave it and forget it” ability. I think it’s pretty damn cool
Those transition animations with the talent trees are rlly clean. Gj :D
Glad to see quick looks come back. Gj Team
Oh this is that old school WoW content that brought me here back in WoD. Love everything preach has been doing, but it does feel good to be back to this type of content
Nice to see the quick looks return
Love it, feels like a golden era comes back
cant wait to see them add more and more animations/effects to the hero talents. The new priest ones are a good sign!
Pally get bubble hearth.
Dk: bye I’m bored good bye. “What?!” “Bored bye.” “Come back here and fight me?!?¿
Yesss Mike is back with WoW content lets goooo!
San'layn reminds me of Legion Ret Pally. Might have to give it a try.
Brother the Acherus Death Charger already starved to death, it's dead
Nice !! Indeed would be nice if the Riders would dash around and attack more active in movement. But overall damn ! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is why i like preach input on gameplay the most.
Good player, but values gameplay over the illusion of perfect balance, there are so many good players that would remove everything that makes a spec actually fun to play in order to have your damage output perfectly controllable.
And that whole idea itself would just make most specs very boring. No procs, no cde, no cdr, just a cd, a few abilities and crazy burst that eventually they nerf and you're just left with a boring spec that's not even that good.
But i also like that preach opinion is not based on visuals alone. A lot of players especially on the low end are satistied with a spec that just isn't interesting, as long as it's nice to look at.
Honestly all three of these look pretty good! DK main is definitely looking possible for TWW
All I need is mounted combat. A win for me. Especially as a DK main
The horseman summoning I thought was cycled through. So it goes 1, 2 ,3 ,4 then repeat. I could be wrong but that was what I have heard.
So hyped to play Unholy San'layn! Gives the flavour of a blood DPS themed character again, does anyone know if essence of the blood queen has an OG like Hysteria affect/aura? I know Vampiric Strike has the cool Red slash and the orbs, anyone else hyped to play unholy san?
I'm more hyped for it with Blood, but I'm glad to see the Unholy Homies are just as psyched as I am. Can't wait to get stuck in on a big pull and unleashed a tidal wave of blood and viscera. I'm a priest main, and yet San'layn is the hero tree I'm most excited about.
Unholy is such a beautiful spec to play man
@@triantulas idk man i kinda don't like the festering wounds mechanic... not sure if i'm in the minority
@@Prawnsly I mostly play Blood, but if I'm playing DPS I actually like the festering wound mechanic even if it's not the best implemented. It's such a neat idea I vibe with. NGL could be better but conceptually I really it.
Will others see the riders? Because for Warlock only you see your effect.
i'm waiting for the Panda Remix to drop and I am going to level up a DK for War With In , its the only class I have not tried
eagerly awaiting the video where he shits on the resto druid hero talents
The mount talents from rider change your mount from the regular model to a ghostly charger from shadowlands.
Feels like preach didn't even saw it 😂
Awesome man looking forward to these.
2 Handed Frost Obliteration Deathbringer will bring so much fun into Frost DK, i cant wait
Mounting and flying away in combat is even more humiliating than Vanish - I love it… 😍
think i might play a bit in the new expansion, is it worth starting now in dragonflight or should i just wait for the release?
Might as well level up a bit and see what you like
I dont mind a passive tree thats all flavour, specially on uh, it already has to many spinning plates, adding more would be a headache
Still no HD models for the DK horses, though? Missed opportunity. Hell, could even give them customization options.
It does, preach is blind
The summon horsemen came from Torgasht.
More faster, get the rest out.Hurry hurry hurry
IMO Hero Talents are more like mini MOP talents mashed up with WOD traits. From my perspective it's mostly a pragmatic choice to keep the DF Talent trees from flooding with points and thus creating a balance nightmare, when suddenly top heavy become mroe of a thing. With some flavor added on top so it isn't obvious.
I'm not against this approach. It appears like something that has a decent likelyhood of working without messing everything up, and the flavor isn't a bad thing.
Really torn on what to pick here. On one hand, Rider has mounted combat. Then there's Deathbringer, and say what you will bout SL but I loved the look and fantasy of the Mawsworn. But also since my DK is a blood elf, San'layn is just the perfect fantasy. I switch between UH and Frost alot so there's a chance to play all three, and I'm just really torn lmao
I don't think they should be adding more active abilities to the game. Most classes already have too much already. These should be mostly altering already existing spells or replacing them. Just ask yourself what does play better Havoc DH or Enhancement Shaman? The latter has twice as many buttons and is a much less enjoyable gameplay.
Goooooooooood 🎉
Talents look promising for first public iteration. I have a feeling mounting a flying mount in combat isnt intended and will be changed. Most likely just for the charger.
Just hoping they control and put hard caps on the RNG element of these. The potential for so many of these to add to the absurd "Casino" feel for specs is ramping up, so Blizz do need to find a way of making it more consistent, otherswise the fun & fresh feel of them will be drowned out by the disappointment of being unlucky.
Are we just ignoring why the pres evoker is bursting more than dpsers on aoe and staying up there?
the riders of the apocalyse is a really cool thing if we didnt have dragon flying, flying mounts and it has no effect in content that actually matters like raid and m+ dunno aabout delves
Dope as fck, congrats to y'all DK, meanwhile my poor feral druid has to play with some kind of stupid vine
I struggle being excited for these, one will be the correct choice and you will be «forced» to pick that if you want to be optimal.
You don't have to, unless you are the top 1% you don't need the 3% overall dmg that one would give you over the other. I play DK in raid and mythic+ and a good player is always better than a better spec. Enjoy the game.
If I still played WoW... I'd make a Blood Elf Paladin just to be San'Layn, because I am a slut for theme.
Monk next please!!!
I mean yeah the Archeus deathcharger looks like trash but you literally don't mount on that anyway if you looked at your horse when in game. It's the torghast death charger
I feel like hero talents are far closer to artifact weapons than anything else.
Just learn already that passives can make more interactive gameplay than just +1 button. Just look at Ret paladin.
NEED MORE ANIMATIONS !! SPELLCRAFTING
Pls cover more wow preach, I miss and crave for your wow videos. How I fell in love with wow content outside of the game
Lot of cool concepts, but DK needs a complete rework, so although these are cool ideas I guess we'll be playing the same broken and crappy F tier class like usual
the problem with it being focused on flavour is that sometimes the spec you enjoy can't access the fantasy you prefer
I"m happy to see you happy with Sanlayn. I was so afraid that riders and deathbringer were going to over shadow it, but you made me actually think twice about it.
As Ret main though Riders still pisses me off. On a paler horse and Deathcharger are both better than the 3 talent point horse we are forced to get. Especially Deathcharger, as its a Horse like Paladin's Divine Steed, but Dk's also get the death's Advance bonus added onto it. So not only do you move faster, but youc an't be knocked back, knocked or slowed below a certain threshold.
For paladins to have anything similar to this it takes two globals, you have to pop Blessing of Freedom, and then your horse, and in PVP i know its damn obvious that if your facing a mage or priest that first global becomes worthless.
i hope we get to ride our horse in more places than just outdoor.
what they should do is, your combat mount indoors run at normal running speed 100% but whit our on a pale horse passive it should boost the movement speed up to 100%+20%=120%, but if you were to use skills like death's advance or other movement increases it wont stack whit on a pale horse passive movement bonus.
Preacher! Mage when?!
preach, are you okay man?
you spent the whole video calling rider of apocalypse, riders of apocalypse, and the video of supposed huge damage of death bringer from Nagura was an unholy which can't even choose death bringer.
These new talents will most likely cause the largest imbalance in the history of the game. They will be balancing classes throughout the wholes expansion, with large sweeping changes.
Rider of the Apocalypse is the absolute WORSE of the DK hero specs. It doesnt turn you into a rider of the apocalypse (technically DK's are already a rider of the apocalypse) and should be called Herald or Harbinger of the Horsemen.
The only things people like about Rider is a choice node and the name of the hero spec.
Deathbringer will probably work better with DW. With RI being on the weapon, and possibly since Frost Strike and Obliterate are 2 hits that could mean you get 2 stacks each when they are Frost damage instead of the 1 from a 2h. I dont know why 2h is still a thing... the spec needs a whole hell of a lot of work and 2h isnt making things better... and with the amount of sources of Frost Damage that DW can do its a no brainer.
It seems like almost every class are getting a bunch of summons. This is going to be awful for pvp balance. Its already a mess, and its just going to get worse.
Aoe cc classes like mage will indirectly become strong as hel
@@diegostrossen6751 against dk maybe. Everyone elses summons seems to be ranged auto cannons.
Rider of apocalypse will be shit in pvp anyway. San Layne is where it's at
Oh yay my favourite flavour of gameplay, magically calling my mount out. That's half the reason pally is so uninteresting to me, such a lame thing to do mid combat.
Crazy to me u still push for more active abilities when u can barely fit everything on 3 bars already. U play other games now u should know how incredibly bloated wow is. They need to remove abilities not add more so i hope they dont listen to the wrong feedback. Flavor and enhancing current abilities is the way to go.
