Breakfast Topic: Three WoW wishes
by Amanda Rivera 
Jun 20th 2007 at 8:00AM
Acks posted an interesting thread in the forums. He asked players to list what their three wishes would be if a WoW genie suddenly appeared to them in a wish-granting mood. While some of the wishes were interesting -- Acks own desire to weild one-handed fish weapons, for instance -- some of them were more along the lines of wanting basic changes to the game mechanics.
I am personally intrigued by the concept of one wisher's wanting seige weapons in the game. It certainly would change the game as far as world PvP is concerned. Or how about the idea of the free for all server? I would definitely keep my cherished items in the bank instead of toting around a bag of primals on my person.
Now, I put this question to you readers. What would you wish for if you were given three WoW wishes? And no, there is no wishing for more wishes.

I'd wish for player housing with weapon/armor displays. Heroic versions of older instances, and Flight in old Azeroth.

I'd wish for 40 mans to come back ;)

1) Free respecs.
2) 3-day kara timer
3) more arena points :)

1) the ability to create at any time - a mine for minerals, or an herb plant or bush for harvesting.
2)an epic item shopping spree for free with an additional 100,000 gold for my keeping
3)an eternity of free time to play.

agree with free respecs since wow has become more pvp focused
reduce rep grinds. i mean after running the mechanar 20 times before getting my heroic key do i really need to run it 10 or more times again to prove to you guys im loyal?
better guild management tools

1> Mounted combat.
2> More low/mid level content.
3> Better animations for the human women. They're terrible. They move the way Tauren women look.

1) Time limit on WSG (Hate those matches that last hours and seem like they will never end)
2) Priest could use 1h Swords like mages and warlocks
3) More world events, It would be awesome if we log in one day and find a part of Org or SW in ruins

I have just one wish. New race: Goblins and penguins.
Thumpah Jun 20th 2007 9:08AM
1) FFA (free for all) PvP server; I could gank those little F'n gold begger SOBs.
2) Soloable instances; for those who hate PUGs and can't get enough guildies/friends together for a group instance.
3) A trinket chain; one like the freaking key chain.

1. More mid-level content.
2. More mid-level content.
3. More mid-level content.
And if that is not possible, a one-time ability to pay to change class. You get one fee-based class change per account. I would roll a new toon to replace my 42 pally, but, see list items 1 - 3, I don't think I can handle another run through the lower mid levels.

1) The WSG time limit = genius. And for the low honor return, let's make sure it's 15 minutes, tops. Maybe move the flags closer together to speed things up. :S
2) A "king of the hill" battle ground. No objective other than to stay in control until the end of a 5 minute brawl. Short, sweet, fun.
3) Rested honor points when you hit 70 to replace the the rested experience bonus.

1) a cool flying mount (dragon or winged unicorn etc) which you can use in both Azeroth and Outland.
2) A server just for goldfarmers and bots so we don't have to listen to them plying their trade by the bank in Ironforge.
3) Touch of death for any high level horde gankers who come after you even after the 'Serisa says: 'let me pass by peacefully, I only want to quest in peace' emergency emote. Same to Alliance who repeatedly /tell 'SM Healer?'
Aurendar Jun 20th 2007 9:24AM
1. Like stable masters, have spec masters. The ability to keep just ONE alternate spec would be WONDERFUL.
2. More world events like The Gates of AQ!
Chip Jun 20th 2007 9:31AM
1. New profession: Woodworking - http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html;jsessionid=34E4DAEB3A9B8920D1943C411B3C903F?topicId=106559088&postId=1064805861&sid=1
2. Allow enchanters to create inscriptions of their enchants to sell on the AH. It doesn't seem fair that the most expensive profession to level is also the most difficult from which to make any money.
3. More "flavorful" level 70 quests and quest chains. Why should druids get all the fun with their epic flight form quest? Maybe a long, difficult, lore-filled chain for every class with equivalent rewards. Summoned flying demon mount for locks, stealthed mount for rogues, that sort of thing. Maybe quest chains that would give you a special title, or permanently alter your character's appearance it indicate you've completed a great ordeal. Since this is a "wish", I'd like to clarify that the reward isn't as important as the depth of the quest chain. I'd really like to seen these epic quests as more like the pally and lock epic mount quests than just rep grinding daily quests.

1. New 20-60 content.
2. Portals FROM capitals TO Shattrath City.
3. Azeroth Faction rewards and Battlegrounds rewards upgraded.
viktorie Jun 20th 2007 9:46AM
1. More content for 20-60.
2. More content for 20-60 OR a 50% xp bonus for 20-60 if you have already leveled a character to 70.
3. Heroic versions of pre-BC instances with appropriate loot. (It would be a lot more satisfying to run a heroic MC repeatedly for FR gear than to have to farm primal fire for six weeks.)

@10, wish 2
how about a king of the hill such as in Halo.... a circle of light that moves ever 40 seconds that a team has to control (have more players within the circle) for a set duration. First team to get that duration wins.
potatowedge Jun 20th 2007 10:00AM
1. To see progress lore-wise, ie having Gnomeregan reclaimed, etc.
2. More world events, of either the serious or silly sort.
3. To have my kitten magically behave whenever I log on.

1) I want to change the world and have it stay changed (for me). When I do that quest to cure diseased deer in darkshore, how come after that quest I still see diseased deer? Make *me* see regular deer, and everybody else (who hasn't done the quest) sees the green deer. Or when I free the sprite darters from the cage in Feralas - if I succeed in the quest, I should see an empty cage, but people who haven't done the quest should see a full cage. When I do one of the "heal this (named) sick person" quests, they should disappear for me, or appear healthy. There are bigger things, but even these little ones would make me feel like my questing isn't just totally meaningless.
2) Fix the shoot-through-the-walls bug on all the boat quests. Or let me shoot through the walls too.
3) Let me /ignore everyone whose real-life age is

- Warlocks should have a 'Demon' flying mount
- Mages should have Fire or Frost form like priests
- Priests should have a Mana renew spell
