It should have been a transmog option, not a gameplay change. The DW-1h gameplay exists - Outlaw Rogue, Enh Shaman, Veng DH, Havoc DH or Frost DK all have this already.Instead, a selfish attitude might potentially cause the only spec that previously dual-wielded 2h weapons to end up being competitively unviable, because we all know how Blizzard balancing is.Such a shame, I hope SMF ends up being worse than Titan's Grip.It's not too late to just make it a transmog option, Blizzard, then everybody is a winner.
Oh boy, I can't wait to be used to, and using 2 Handed Weapons, then get a 1 hander drop that an upgrade, but can't use it because my other 1 hander is terrible.This is bad. Unless Blizzard adds an option for us to not get Two or One handed weapons from Personal Loot, this will be a disaster.Everyone happy for this because "they miss it" does not realize that Master Loot was in place last time SMF was here. Even if you didn't use Master Loot, you used group loot, so you can pass on the weapons you don't want.This is going to be a disaster unless we can exclude of the weapons from dropping
I really like this and 2h frost DK. Thank you! Finally, Blizzard :)
Being negative on a change that gives players options is stupid. Blizz listened and they re-added it.
This is announced at the same time tusks of mannoroth drops for me after 5 years of farming? this is a sign i have to keep my warrior as a main!
Sweet, I've been wanting it back!Also, cool that they use my old Screenshot from MoP on the front page! :^D
I'm very, very happy about this, but... all of the upcoming min/maxing and balance changes are something to be worried about. They should just let fury xmog two handers into one handers and avoid any balancing. Looking forward to this immensely, but... it's all so easy lol
I'm in tears! Finally it's back >.<
awesome!
I don't care for SMF because I prefer rocking massive weapons, and I'm glad for those who've wanted this option back, but it's going to be the worse option for everything again. The piddly 8% damage increase, assuming they don't change that, is just nowhere near enough of a buff to make SMF viable. Fury is fine as it is on live, and it sounds fine on alpha, but SMF only adds vanity at best. If they're going to keep SMF into live, it absolutely needs to be balanced so that playing SMF isn't the wrong way to play, like it once was when Titan's Grip was introduced. Hell, this is going to make getting the right weapons harder, assuming they don't split the drops to different sources. Gonna be an unpleasant experience to keep getting the same 1h weapon off a boss when they should give you the 2h version.Even from a vanity point of view, it's pointless; we could still hold two one-handed weapons in Fury. We just couldn't use most attacks due to the requirements.
SMF is bad, and I hope the people who want it, get this just to realize how stupid it is.
Everyone keeps getting back their dual wielding options APART FROM HUNTER.. GJ Blizz...u keep fckin this up for many of us. Everyone gets to play the way they want, but I have to stick with 2 handed polearm/axe/sword...
classic 1hand fanatics .......... waaaa dont like that
What about threat of Thassarian and Might of the Frozen Wastes for DKs? C’mon Blizz, I know you can do it.
