By Sarah Bergin
Players are wondering about the details in World of Warcraft's newly-announced expansion, Dragonflight.
Dragonflight, World of Warcraft's newest expansion, covers a wide span of updates and features. Here are the necessary information that you need to know about the Dracthyr, Evoker, release date, Talent System, and the UI Rehaul.
Dragonflight Dracthyr/Evoker Race and Class
The Dracthyr race and Evoker class are deemed inseparable within the game. Here are the details that we have so far on this race-and-class, according to Blizzard's description:
• As a Dracthyr, you can switch between a human-looking version of yourself and the draconic form.
• You also have the ability to choose whether you want to be on the Horde or the Alliance with the Dracthyr.
• There's an exclusive beginning experience where you can learn how to utilize Dracthyr's skills before adventuring.
• Unique specializations, Devastation and Preservation, are also included. You can choose to fight enemies or renew your allies. Directly from their statement, "Dracthyr Evokers can fight from mid-range with claws and fiery breath attacks (Devastation) or draw upon the life-giving magic of renewal to bolster their allies (Preservation)."
• Maximized effects can occur in battle when you charge up your attacks.
Dragonflight Dragonriding
Players are now able to create customizable Drakes to use as mounts throughout the game. There are four base forms yet "millions of possible combinations to choose from" according to Blizzard, which allows players to make their mount unique to them.
Dragonflight Release Date
At this time, there is no release date listed for Dragonflight, but we expect it to be released in late 2022 or early 2023.
Dragonflight Talent System
In this Talent system update, there are two trees available to choose from: class utility and increased specialization of your role. This creates a wider span of options for players. Due to this, every decision that you make will affect these trees significantly. By using your points to create new features, more combinations of spells and abilities will be unique to your gameplay.
Dragonflight UI Rehaul
There has been an extreme revamp of the UI in World of Warcraft. With this, players can expect similar elements but in a more modern format. There is more visibility on your screen, since the action bar has been altered and the health bar has become larger. There are also customizable options, as you can edit, copy, save, and name your HUD layouts.
