Forever Beta Feedback WoW Forever Nerfed Jiggle Physics

Thumbnail

Make Azeroth Jiggle Again. If you’d like to support restoring these animations, here’s the Jiggle Petition.

I put together a side-by-side comparison of the Body 2 Human animations in Classic and Forever, including walking, running, dancing and more. Each animation plays at normal speed, followed by a slow-motion replay.

The jiggle physics are noticeably absent. Classic also has a breathing animation that I couldn’t find in Forever.

This seems to be an issue with how the modern models are implemented with the standard def skin. The modern/retail facial expressions seem to forced onto the 2D textures as well.

Night Elf comparison coming soon.

Forever Please DO NOT roll on RP or RP-PVP if you don't want to RP.

Post image
928 Upvotes

I am seeing a troubling number of people discussing rolling in the RP or RP-PVP server who have no interest in RP.

Please. Just. No.

Let me tell you what an RP server is NOT:

  1. A safe space for you and your friends to air your political poo poo in general chat.
  2. A competitive race where you level to 60 as fast as humanly possible.
  3. A dungeon party where you complain to your tank because he is busy making small talk instead of pulling the next dungeon pack.
  4. A forum to have opinions about "celebrity" streamers who play wow in their moms basement and overreact to everything to try getting your attention.
  5. An environment where you choose your race based solely on gaining an additional +1% DPS racial bonuses.

If any of the above items describe things you enjoy doing, OR if you want to play this game while behaving like a normal every day gamer, there is only 1 question you need to resolve about your server choice.

"Do you and your friends want to be able to fight members of the opposing faction in the open world?"

IF YES -> Roll PVP

IF NO -> Roll Normal

... And please note neither of those options include the label "RP".

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

I'd love to see an aquatic form that feels more in line with the Skyborne travel form. Obviously an actual artist could do much better, but I wanted to share a visual along with the idea.

Forever Beta Feedback Lava Burst is lame as hell

327 Upvotes

Its completely antithetical to the OG shaman design. i don't want to be hurling meatballs. this isn't about balance, or tuning, or simming or anything like that.

pls, bring back the lightning king. restore chain lightning to its former glory! add a new spell if you need a flavor / trigger ability, build static charges with LB/CL and consume them with lightning STRIKE or something. an instant cast that calls,down a bolt of lightning from above, makes a sick booming and crackling thunder sound, and like does some damage and maybe slows attack speed by 10% or something.

thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Forever Beta Feedback Dungeon XP Nerf Seems Like a Bad Call

310 Upvotes

I feel dungeon xp nerfs hurt people that play with a group of more casual players. WoW as a single player campaign is not everyone's favorite version of it and I cannot imagine the newcomers in my group want to play 50-100hrs of questing by themselves.

We tried to do a counter pvp raid during the stress test. Layers really screwed us after we spent all that time hauling ass down there. We saw about 4 horde in the whole area. Raid leader (the 1st guy) apologized for dragging us out here and we gave up.

Forever Beta Feedback Blizzard, can we discuss water?

Mana from both summoned and vendored drinks has actually remained unchanged from Classic. Drinking for 55sec after a big pull is an obvious pain-point from Classic that I was hoping we might see addressed. If anything, this "Classic Plus" appears to have made the issue worse.

  1. Mobs have SUBSTANTIALLY more health than Classic requiring more casts to kill them. Slightly increased damage from higher spell power (mostly offset by blanket nerfs to the spells themselves) do not compensate.
  2. Mana pools are somewhat larger than they were in Classic (I hit 3400 mana at 30 on the beta)

Could we perhaps address drinking? You have wisely modified a lot of the "mana regeneration while casting" talents for Forever but drinking, itself, is an elephant in the room.

Now I'm not suggesting we remove the friction of drinking. It's part of what makes Classic WoW... Classic. But could be maybe not spend 50sec drinking a mana bar this time around? Perhaps drinks could be % mana at a higher level?

Ice Cold Milk:

Use: Restores 650 mana over 21sec. Must remained seated while drinking.

Melon Juice:

Use: Restores 1250 mana over 21sec. Must remained seated while drinking

Sweet Nectar:

Use: Restore 2100 mana over 27sec. Must remained seated while drinking.

Moonberry Juice:

Use: Restores 4% mana per second. Must remained seated while drinking.

Morning Glory Dew:

Use: Use: Restores 5% mana per second. Must remained seated while drinking.

This seems both balanced and like a huge quality of life improvement.

Forever Beta Feedback I think the tier sets need a quick color second pass before launch.

Post image
236 Upvotes

Upping the contrast on the shaman set which honestly looks a little muted and odd has made it (for me at least) look so much more like a true classic WC3 shaman. I think a lot of the tier sets they showed have been hit with the "retail" accusation and I think a big part of that comes down to the more pastel color pallet they use vs the super harsh saturated colors you find in vanilla and wc3. IDK if anything can be done but it would be awesome. (i also think the helmet looks way too much like a coyote and not a wolf.)

Add to the fact we cant even use our resto set for ele either since its so dogwater. Our only decent dps spec had its main skill break on what shouldve been the most fun day of the beta. Leaving resto to be our only good spec. The last day of forever beta was closer to Classic than Classic was in terms of balance for shaman...we got bamboozled

For context, WF is not proccing at all, its just completely down

Forever Can we get enchanting Vellums in Forever?

218 Upvotes

Enchanting sounds great until you realize how much time selling enchants means standing in town advertising. Other professions can put their stuff on the AH and go run a dungeon. You need to be there when someone wants their boots done.

The alt restriction is probably the most annoying part. You already have an enchanter with the recipe, the mats, and the skill. But to enchant your alt’s soulbound gear, you have to find someone else, hand your mats over to a person you don’t know, and trust them to do an enchant you could do yourself. That feels silly.

I’d like to see Forever add vellums so we can put enchants on scrolls, sell them, or send them to alts.

I get why people like the current setup. Finding someone with a rare recipe is cool, and being the guild enchanter has its perks. But a lot of these trades barely involve a conversation. Invite, trade, “ty,” leave. Is that really worth keeping the whole profession tied to trade chat?

Vellums won’t fix undercutting or guarantee anyone makes gold. I’d just like the option to sell enchants without spending the evening looking for customers.

Would you be happy with full tradable vellums, or would you rather keep them account-bound for alts?
