I am a pretty avid World of Warcraft player, at least since last February when I got the game, and in that time I have decided Blizzard could make a few improvements. Some of my smaller ideas are more for convenience. For example, portable anvils, or forges. You can build a fire anywhere, why not be able to carry around the supplies for these and build them too?My biggest change would be houses. I would have about six different houses located throughout the worlds, ranging from shacks to huge mansions, even a haunted manor out in Duskwood and a farm in Westfall. these houses would be instance-like so that you wouldn't have to have thousands of houses, and each house could be as unique on the inside as the player. You could buy decorations for it, and furnishings, storage, as well as tools to upgrade professions. Some things you got for your homes could add stats, like beds could give you a bonus rest time, or rest percentage. Blacksmiths could get a forge that would add a +5 to blacksmithing. tailors could have a sewing machine, herbalists an herb garden, a stove for cooking, etc. Also, I would create new professions. Craftsmen to make furniture and household items and bows and staves, and add items to existing professions, like the sewing machine would fall under engineering for example. I would also create an epic schematic for engineers for a cloning box. A box that could clone items put in it (about half the time depending on item being cloned) and depending on what was put in it, the time it took to clone it would vary. For example, a silverleaf plant, would take about five minutes to clone with a 95% success rate, and the other 5% would result in a 'grey' weed. on the other hand, a 'purple' epic item put in to be cloned would take 10 days with a 20% success rate, 80% resulting in a grey item. Everything in between would fall between those stats. I haven't thought to much about any of this or anything.........
I have also considered the next expansion, and what it will include. I am thinking of the opening scene going something like this....
Camera sweeps over booty bay, then pans to a Night Elf Feral Druid, Cyriel, boarding the ship in booty bay, his two companions, a Dwarf Hunter named Birgitte and her pet ravasaur named Silver, and a Human Paladin named Lorn. As they board, they eye the three hoard already aboard the ship with quiet malice. Camera Pans across the three hoard, An Orc Warrior named Bern, an Undead Warlock named Kripler, and a Tauren Shaman named Bo Vine. The camera spins in the center of the two groups, showing the growing tension, while in the background, the ship departs an sailors are rushing around on deck casting off. Bern roars, a rallying battle cry and Cyriel polymorfs do dire bear form as he roars at his companions over his shoulder. As the two groups prepare for what is to be an imminent fight, the ship suddenly lurches, and they are all left scrambling for purchase. the soldiers are all yelling and pointing, and the captain shouting frantic orders as he wrestles with the wheel. The six passengers immediately forget their animosity and try to get to a vantage point, as the camera pans out. he ship is in a slow spin, around the outskirts of a maelstrom, and the last thing you hear before the camera fades is screams of terror.
Camera fades back in to six passed out figures in a dark cell. They slowly rouse and look around in confusion as the cell door is opened and several Naga are there with weapons to escort them out of their cell. They follow quietly, and the camera pans around the dark, dank dungeon, and fades again, fading back as the prisoners enter a large room, the camera focused on a figure on the throne in the distance. As the camera pans out, you see the throne room is in a giant underwater room, and the prisoners look around dumbstruck. As they get closer, the camera moves around the room, then settles on the throne, and Azshara.
"Why are you here? Who sent you?"
"We were not sent!" Bern yells as Cyriel says calmly, "Our ship was wrecked here."
Aszhara regards them both, fuming, and as the camera pans closer, you see flashbacks, only a few seconds each, of her banishment, her people being slaughtered, and then, of her creating this underwater refuge and finally, of the vast armies she is building. She smiles wickedly.
"I have a task for you. There are creatures who have tormented us, and are trying to see to our destruction. If you can rid me and my people of these pests, I will not only let you live, but reward you greatly."
Glancing at each other briefly, the six nod, having no other choice. The camera pans/fades out, showing a final glimpse of Azshara's devious smile.
Camera fades in as the six companions, separate, each going into opposite directions into the dark tunnels. Camera fade out/in on the horde companion stealthily approaching a cave where noises filter through. Camera switches to Alliance group moving to pear through a hole in the tunnel wall/floor, into a cavern full of humans, mages by the looks of them, and their families. The looked scared, but also resolute, as most of them went about daily tasks. A small group of adults were clustered around a small table, working over something hidden from sight.
The Horde group peer cautiously into a large cavern full of humans, goblins, dwarves , gnomes and machines, thousands of machines, building what appears to be mechanized humans
"We knew you would come," an old withered voice announces and both groups turn in surprise. An old man, the same old man, stands before both groups. Allow me an introduction, he says with a tired smile as the alliance groups backs away and the horde groups rushes in for the kill. The image of the man flickers slightly and the horde look around in bewilderment and the image readjusts itself to stand in front of them again.
"I am Zaladormu, and we have had occasion to meet before, if you will recall. Yes. You I know well. The Keepers of Time have come here to thwart a world cataclysm. You my friends, can help."
The three Alliance, immediately agree, and Zaladormu transports them back to the docks of Stormwind, where they immediately go before the king to enlist alliance aid for the Keepers of Time.
The three Horde, sneer and agree, and Zaladormu nods, knowing they did not intend to keep their bargain. He send them back to Ogrimmar, where they approach their leader and tell him of the beneficial alliance they could make with Azshara.
Camera fades out/in and shows epic battles being waged between the Keepers new Clockwerk constructs and the thousands of Naga Azshara has called to her side. It sweeps the beautiful underwater city Nazjatar, bright and almost aquarium-like in it's splendor, then pans to the buried caves, and the caverned city of Spring.
Two new races are born, the Naga, with their custom oracle class, whose casting powers revolve around telepathy, telekenesis and seeing into the future, and the Clockwerk, a new plate wearing class with the ability to take monumental amounts of damage.
The new professions, woodcarving and lumberjack (wood gathering). Woodcarvers will be able to make staves, bows, crossbows, room additions for the new houses, as well as furniture for them. Beds, chairs, chests to hold items. They will also be able to put additions on the guild halls. (an instance like building that is for guilds)
There will also be a new bank besides the guild bank and personal bank, the account bank, one that everyone on your account can use.
There would also be new water mounts, boats, submarines and seahorses. :D
that's all for now, feel free to add more if you have ideas! (or let me know if you like/hate mine)
