CLASSES

DRACTHYR

Battle Visage is a toggled ability, like Chosen Identity. While active, you automatically assume your Visage whenever you are not casting draconic spells such as Fire Breath and Soar.

Full list of abilities that temporarily shift you to Dracthyr: Deep Breath, Dream Flight, Breath of Eons, Fire Breath, Eternity Surge, Dream Breath, Upheaval, Hover, Spatial Paradox, Rescue, Zephyr, Verdant Embrace (without Dream Simulacrum talented), and Soar.
Many abilities that used to force a shift to Dracthyr have adjusted visual treatments for Visage form.
While active, Battle Visage also applies a camera height override to Dracthyr form to prevent the camera from adjusting rapidly when shifting between forms. These camera adjustments are still work-in-progress; there are occasionally minor camera differences between the two forms.

Comment by janinTo a couple of comments that I'm not going to quote...Dracthyr aren't dragons. They're dragonkin, like the ones we kill in quests, guard places and in some cases...can have as pets, lol.
Expecting them to be like the elite of their species (dragons) is a bit far.Comment by KillyoxWhile we're at it, if i can shoot laser beams from hand instead of mouth like before, can I also shoot it out from my behind?

Totally dislike this as an evoker main. Give more options for dragon form and make it also heal others like visage. To hell with this battle visage.

What next, flying tauren breathing fire?Comment by KillyoxIt’s a shame they couldn’t

A) Let transmog work for Dracthyr
B) Let you choose any race as a visage
C) Thought about all of this much sooner

I think Dracthyr are really cool and unique. Even if they disabled some of the 3D art of armour, it would be much better.
Also a shame that 2h weapons are invisible when sheathed because of their wings.

Feels like Blizzard doesn’t want to waste anymore art time on Dracthyr, so we have the tech devs creating this work around.Comment by Fallefel

This indeed feels like blizz doesn't want to waste time to make dragon form better and they are doing workaround to just have more ^&*!ty elves around.Comment by ShadowmagusPossibly on the path towards non-dracthyr evokers?
