It’s a good week to drink deep and full of World of Warcraft Forever developer diaries, as Blizzard released yet another pair of them yesterday. Both of these continue to plumb the depths of new character creation options, including the additional class/race combos and the new Skyborne race.
“World of Warcraft Forever opens new ways to build your character, including Orc Mages, Troll Warlocks, Undead Paladins, Human Hunters, Gnome Priests, Dwarf Shamans, and the debut of the Skyborne,” Blizzard said. The studio also posted the full list of racial traits, a list which is worth checking out as there have been a rework of many of these to offer two active and two passive abilities per race. And check it out, Plainsrunning is back for the Tauren — a feature not seen since early World of Warcraft development.
Meanwhile in the beta, players continue to discover all of the strange secret items that the developers are slipping into this new version of the game. One of these is a special Mage sword, the Coldflame Saber, which seems tailor-made to encourage a battle mage playstyle. The community also found a cozy sleeping bag that lets you catch a nap while earning an XP buff.
