Dratnos and Tettles' Patch 10.1 Dragonflight Wishlist

wowhead.com:

Today's GG WoW video is a wishlist for patch 10.1! Note that there is still a minor patch between now and then, with Patch 10.0.7 on the Horizon which will likely be the subject of future videos, but this week Dratnos and Tettles zoom out and focus more on broader system changes that could accompany the next major patch. Up first is the Revival Catalyst, a system that does great things for Tier Set acquisition relative to the world where it didn't exist, but is almost universally seen as a system that kicks in too late.

Dratnos and Tettles discuss whether it would be better sooner, whether people would complain regardless of when it came out, and whether there might be creative solutions that would let Blizzard preserve the incentive to play the patch and power up your characters while still letting players access the exciting new bonuses quickly. Valor points are the next subject of the wishlist, where a few tweaks to improve quality of life might be worth exploring, such as account-wide score requirements for Valor upgrades, earlier removal of the Valor Cap, or adjustments to the most expensive Valor upgrades like weapons.

Dratnos also expands on an idea from a few weeks ago to add an uncapped currency that can be used to upgrade up to the 402 or 405 equivalent level and remove the painful bind that players find themselves in when they have a BiS item below ilvl 400 and have to choose between being wasteful with their Valor or farming another copy at higher level. Drums are the next topic of conversation, with Engineering battle rez making an appearance too, as Tettles hopes to see both buffed to the convenience and power that they used to have — still less powerful than real lust and battle rez but less of a hurdle
