Class-Specific Epic Weapons Datamined in Season of Discovery Phase 5 PTR

Classic Posted 17 days ago by Archimtiros

A Little Something for Everyone

Druid: Gla'sir transforms into Rae'lar for Feral Druids.

Hunter: Kestrel and Peregrine appear setup for Survival, as ranged Hunters already enjoy Lok'delar, Stave of the Ancient Keepers and Rhok'delar, Longbow of the Ancient Keepers.

Mage: Staff of Order switches between Staff of Inferno and Staff of Rime for each elemental specialization.

Paladin: Truthbearer for Retribution can be converted to Truthbearer for tanks and healers.

Priest: Cassandra's Tome stands out as a trinket instead of a weapon, likely because Priests already have access to Anathema and Benediction.

Rogue: Dream Eater is the only version available to Rogues.

Shaman: Terrestris for DPS and healers can be turned into Terrestris for Shaman tanks.

Warlock: Scythe of Chaos is the only version available to Warlocks.

Warrior: Suzerain, Defender of the Dragonflights does not feature a DPS variant at this point in time.

Possible Class Quest Rewards

Blackwing Warlock's Codex is tagged as Paladin, but seems more likely related to Warlocks for obvious reasons.

Blood of the Lightbringer and Blood of the Lightbringer appears related to the legendary Lightbringer rather than Truthbearer.

Flawless Black Dragonscale seems related to the shield, though Shimmering Golden Disk and Simulacrum of the Dragon Soul also stand out as being trinket related.

Incomplete Staff of Order clearly appears related to the multiple attenuations of Staff of Order, Staff of Inferno, and Staff of Rime.

WARRIORS AND ENHANCE GETTING NO TRINKET OR WEAPONS? EVERYONE! NOOOOOOO SIRRRRComment by ExtremelyCrustyGrreeaaat another fast twohander for RetComment by MageKillerBowPriest trinket is not even worth equiping in its current state.Comment by Furydeathoh boy more melee legendarysComment by DeathisiOn the bright side, Holy Paladins have a fairly good selection of options to choose from in terms of weapons.
That said, there are a few things we still need to take into consideration. It will be interesting to see if the healing shield and Lok'amir receive any updates or improvements in the near future. These updates could potentially alter how these items measure up against one another, especially when you factor in the potential enchants and the use of weapon + shield oils.Comment by IhaninHIghkey hate how the mage staff is so schaisse in comparison to the other staffs. Wtf devs?Comment by PappsattPriest trinket is a placeholder or?Comment by Hulkbusterwhere enhancer shaman "class specific epic weapon" ?Comment by Melchiaha shield isnt a weapon.Comment by Burner666What the hell is going on with mages, weapon missing crit for fire, our tier set is trash, tier 1 wasn't great, is blizzard giving us trash on purpose or do they just have no clue, they are trying to make us use spells we haven't used since gnomer because they are trash, but let's design a set both sets around that.Comment by XaphireftwPretty sure dev team does not play priest. Only warrior/paladin/shaman. And a bit of rogue and hunter on the side.Comment by hoperavenPretty sure dev team does not play priest. Only warrior/paladin/shaman.
