Blog Azeroth Shared Topic: What other skills should your class have?
Each week, Blog Azeroth hosts a Shared Topic for bloggers to answer on their own blogs and then link to in the forum. Last week, Effraeti from Awaiting the Muse asked:
We all have our favorite classes, and sometimes, even with our favorites we wish they had just a little something more. Like another skill that would be super cool and perfect to our class. Like for my Shaman, I think I should have more elementals.
If you could have another skill or two for your class, what would it be?
My answer? More druid ports.
Way, way, way back in the day, when druids first got the teleport to Moonglade spell, we were told it was the first of our ports. That text went away after a while, along with any hint of any other ports ever hitting the druid spellbooks.
When I used to play Everquest, there were two classes that had ports: wizards and druids. They were in constant demand for porting people to their respective portal sites. It's obvious that the original plan was to borrow the same idea, at least for self-portals. Maybe Blizzard didn't want to seem too copy-catish? I don't know. But I was bummed that my druid never saw another teleport spell.
I'm not suggesting that druids be able to taxi other people around like the EQ druids ... or maybe I am. I don't think mages would mind. After all, being bugged all the time for ports by people who never even think of tipping or even saying please is not something to be coveted. Regardless, being able to teleport (self or otherwise) to all of the Cenarion Circle hangouts would be rather nice. Party in Silithus? Right this way *poof*.
I also would have asked to be made of stars, but since there's a glyph that does that, I would just like the noise I make when I'm getting hit to sound less moonkin-like. Pretty sparkles. Ugly sounds.
What other skills should your class have and why? Answer in the comments or post on your blog and leave us a link. If you do blog it, put a link in the Shared Topic forums as well.
