Paul Kubit, Sr Game Designer for World of Warcraft, dropped a ton info about how Professions will work in Legion.
One huge reveal is there will actually be Profession questlines.
Here’s a run down of everything he talked about:
- Goal - Giving you more stuff to do
Example: you log in on sunday and want to relax by doing professions so we're going to change recipe acquisition.
- You won't just log into this expac and learn every recipe you need from a trainer.
We want you out in the world to go on adventures to find recipes.
Example: Tailor starts quest in Dalaran, trainer asks you to go find cloth. It fails, find a new person to help you make it work! Rest of the quest line deals with learning stuff from a Nightborne who also learns from YOU about Dalaran.
Example: Mining - you learn from characters on how to mine more efficiently.
New ore: Ley Ore
- Mining and Herb nodes are SHARED in Legion. Druids won't steal your nodes!
- Moving recipes out in the world
- Profession questlines, which will teach how to use new materials and deal with other issues and consequences from the questline
- Gathering nodes in Legion will Finally be shared
- Recipes will have ranks Ranks
- Tradeskill UI update
- Can set recipes to a favorites list
- Learned/unlearned tab
- Unlearned gives details about how to get those recipes
- Obliterum – dust or ash which is used to make crafted things into more powerful items
- Obtain Obliterum by taking them to a special forge to destroy crafted items
- Crafted items are special
- - All high level jewelcrafter Necks have guaranteed gem slot & class specific buffs
- - Engineer helms shoot bullets because they are made of gun parts
- - Minor glyphs are usable items, used to augment spells themselves no limit on how many you can use
- Major glyphs will be removed from the game
- Archaeologists have an expansion length quest line
- Cooking will be able to cook bacon and Nomi will show-up to teach new recipies
- Fishing will feel like a an adventure
- First Aid will have all new content related to it to make it an adventure
What do you think of the changes? Let us know int eh comments below!
