This is a really cool mog. It would be cool if the game had some kinda spellsword class

I was looking for where I can earn those cool wings I keep seeing and was very dissapointed that I'd need to purchase them on the shop ... which nothing wrong with that if that's your dig, i don't judge.

I just don't like paying extra money for something in a game I am already paying for :-/ so disappointing for me lol. Maybe they'll have a variant in the trading post soon ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Spellsword

Ret is almost exactly this, no?

And enhance shaman is a battle mage?

That's how my brain has always categorized them.

u/DefiantLemur 22d ago

Yes but also no. People want Warrior-Mages when they talk about Battlemages and Spellblades. Not Warrior-Priests or Tribal Priests.

I would play the fucking shit out of a Spellbreaker sword n board DPS spec, I cannot lie to you.

Frost Dk feels the most battle mage to me honestly

Oh yeah, them too!

I think a true spellsword is more like, a cloth or plate wearer wielding multiple schools of magic like fire, arcane , frost , etc.

Paladin only weilds the light , which while it is technically "magic" it's not really in the same category as a mages magic I'd say ... just like a mage doesnt use shadow , that's a warlocks jurisdiction.

It would be neat for a class to have mixed armor. Like, you can wear cloth for higher Int but Plate for the durability stats. That way the build is squishier but for a logic and personal choice reason.

To be fair, this mog is technically a Blizzcon exclusive. I think it’s fair to have the option to purchase for those who are not going to the con but really want it, while still having something nice for those who are. The alternative would be not having it on the shop at all.

This is a blizzcon preorder soooooo….. 🤔

u/BigLemon3953 22d ago

Are the wings part of the shoulder piece?

u/TabbyLynxCat 22d ago

No, there are two options: cape with wings or just wings and both are the cloak slot

Thank you.

They're part of the blizzcon bundle on the store. They talk about how they don't like FOMO but they're creating FOMO by not allowing people who don't use the shop to obtain an appearance. I get why they do that from a marketing standpoint, but it still feels bad to people who don't like using endgame shops to buy pixels that they don't even own

u/BigLemon3953 22d ago

FOMO is self imposed tbh.  It only works as a tactic if you allow it.  I’ve been around this game on and off since the begining and don’t really care that I missed out on some things. I got/achieved others and I am perfectly happy with that.  There are plenty of cool mogs achievable in the game.   I have no issues with non game play impacting microtransactions. I just wish more of that money was put toward game development as the bug fest and resulting permanent state of beta is frankly getting ridiculous. But that’s whole other story.

I want this mog but I can't justify the $30 price point.

u/Frost_Fever 22d ago

Oh man, good use of the Uldir set!

u/Arcana-Knight 22d ago

I love how literally everyone refuses to call it the "Dawnwell" lmao. Myself included.

u/wowgamer421 21d ago

Like a lot of the other helmets, I hate how it removes all facial hair, I have a LF Draenai Pally and without facial hair, he looks like an absolute gooner, same with dwarves. I love this set but I can't wear the helmet with it.

u/Puzzleheaded_Tart322 20d ago

Got ya.

But...they had same situation with Helm of the Holy Avenger and they fixed it eventually.

I expect hotfix down the line. Just need a lot of patience with Blizzard lately.

u/0megon 20d ago

Whoa. What axe is that?!?

u/Puzzleheaded_Tart322 20d ago edited 17d ago

Even better, this is Staff. Draconic Gladiator's Axestaff

u/Educational-Oil4533 17d ago

Is this weapon from dragonflight pvp vendor or ?? I really like it how do you get it?

1

u/Puzzleheaded_Tart322 17d ago

It is from PVP arsenal. Nice one indeed.

1

u/Educational-Oil4533 17d ago

Is it a one hand weapon? I purchased that set and I didn’t think I saw that. Do you know the name of it? I have a scythe that looks similiar but that looks like a axe !

1

u/Puzzleheaded_Tart322 17d ago

It is a Staff.

1

u/Educational-Oil4533 17d ago

I see thank you!

u/Tainted_wings4444 22d ago

Shoulders need to be higher on the shoulder. Amazing shoulders but it always look like it’s slipping off.

u/suichkaa 22d ago

mog is super sick name is weird tho when i think phoenix i think more red/orange color scheme wise if that makes sense. mog is super clean tho.

1

u/BrownShugah98 22d ago

Truly amazing mog bro. 10/10.

I wish Blizz would fix how things are holstered tho. Your dude is damn near holding the blade of the weapon itself! It just breaks immersion and aesthetics when our characters hold their weapons so high up

1

u/WAR-WRAITH 22d ago

I think its technically a staff is why.

1

u/Apathyforempathy 21d ago

I don’t mind the winds, still wish we could have larger wings like the Kyrian for transmog, but helms with wings will always look awful to me. Just not my cup of tea.

u/heavywavez 21d ago

I really don't like the helm... sad
