I know you probably have received this kind of suggestion before, but hear me out.

The 1hr mail delay adds absolutely zero value to the game. It is only there to slow down gameplay and frustrate people. I know you're trying to be blizzlike in some aspects, but this is one of the stupidest things blizzard has implemented in their game, and you don't have to copy it. You've already put so much quality of life into Ascension, and I don't see why this shouldn't be a part of it.

It's just so annoying to have to wait an hour when selling something via CoD, to have it reach its recipient, then another hour to get your gold. It makes CoD trading absolutely horrible and is the reason so few people even accept CoDs anymore.

But by far the WORST offender is the Auction House mails. Why do I have to wait an hour to get my gold from a sale? It makes zero sense. You'd think the AH has a premium mailing service subscription with all the 5% cuts they make off everyone.
(Turns out they do, but they use it only to insta-send you some spam mails )

But seriously, not only is there delay, but there is the AH SPAM MAIL that precedes getting your gold. Its sole purpose is to frustrate people to the ends of their patience. It cannot be auto-deleted by the Postal addon, so you have to delete it manually. I can't even begin to imagine the pain of doing so without an addon, and even with an addon, I've accidentally deleted mail that actually still had gold in it, because my mail was full of AH spam and while clearing it, the next wave of AH mail was delivered.
Also when your mail gets full of AH spam mails, the other players can't mail you anything until you clear your mailbox. This is incredibly stupid, because it doesn't impose such a limit for the AH mails themselves. The error it gives the sender makes zero sense too, so most of the times I got it, I thought something bugged out with the server: "You have reached the maximum allowed mail recipients". So misleading.

I think it would be in everyone's best interest if the mail delay and AH spam mails were removed entirely from the game, so we can take back control of our own mailboxes.
Thanks for your time and consideration in reading this wall of text.

I used to wonder why people would sell the scrolls from their Nozdormu dailies for so cheap in the AH instead of using it themselves - it's a free RE that you don't have to spend an extract on, right? WRONG!
Turns out, using such a scrolls sneakily levels your mystic enchanting altar by one level - and it doesn't even give you one level worth of experience, it just tops off your current one, so if you were close to leveling up, congrats, you wasted most of an extract for that scroll.
And even if that isn't the case, the future extracts will be THAT much harder to get after using these scrolls for an extended period of time. I was wondering how my altar got so quickly to level 150 without me reforging much. Well that's how. And it's not documented ANYWHERE that this is how these scrolls work. So currently, they are absolutely NOT worth it unless you stockpile like 1000 extracts and then start using them - but you can't stockpile the scrolls either, because the damn things don't stack!

I have 2 proposals to make them more useful:

1. Just make them not give an altar level. Extracts are scarce enough as it is, let us get some free RE's without spending our precious extracts.

and/OR

2. Make the scrolls unable to give you RE's you already have. That's a really stupid design decision in my opinion, because it punishes completionists - the more RE's you have unlocked, the less chance you'll get something new. Completing all epic and legendary RE's is a daunting enough task as it is - you don't need to make it any harder. This will also make it more rewarding to do, because if you have everything else, when new RE's get released you can just pop some scrolls and get them easily, which I think it a nice reward for all that work.

CoA is experimental enough as it is, I don't see this suggestion being out of place:
Add 2 new races - High Elves for Alliance and Goblins for Horde on the Rexxar Realm

The reasoning is that these races have been a part of Warcraft story since Warcraft 2, and are still around in WoW - There are a lot of high elf NPCs, and even some towns - in Winterspring, Easter Plaguelands, Hinterlands and ofcourse Terokkar Forest (Allerian Stronghold), possibly a few more that I'm not remembering. Not all elves became addicted to fel magic and followed Kael'Thas or joined the Horde, many stayed faithful to the alliance.
As for the goblins, many of them are still a part of the horde, even if some factions pretend neutrality or value coin above loyalty to any faction, there are lots of goblins that are still working for the horde, and I think they were originally intended to be a part of that faction when WoW was first being worked on - and they did once Cata broke out. They also conveniently have very well animated and detailed models, both Low Definition and High Definition and can easily be made into a playable faction.

There are of course the challenges of making their racial abilities and starting zones, but I think it's one more thing you could exercise your creativity on.

This one was a pain to make:

-Centuion-
Helm: Bloodscale Helm
Shoulders: Engraved Pauldrons
Cape: Vengeance Wrap (alt. Cloak of Impulsiveness)
Chest: Bloodforged Chestpiece
Gloves: Gemmed Copper Gauntlets (alt. Bloodforged Gauntlets)
Belt: Praetorian Girdle (to apply a centurion-like texture to the leggings' skirt)
Legs: Ogre Assassin's Britches (the only leggings in the game that have the "skirt" model)
Boots: Shoddy Chain Boots (alt. Boots of the Skybreaker / Blackened Chain Greaves)
Weapon: Sword of Omen (alt. Claystone Shortsword / any Gladius-like sword)
Shield: Blackrock Bulwark (alt. Bulwark of Azzinoth once BT comes out // the vanilla shields are not big enough for a centurion, but if you want them, try Engraved Wall / Brigade Defender, they fit better color-wise)

"Bloodthirst now inflicts bonus shadow damage that steals additional life, scaling with spell power, and also adds a combo point. The bonus damage and lifesteal are increased if the target is bleeding."

I think it would be a nice addition to the "Master of Shadows" epic RE that caters more to the vampire class fantasy and solo/pvp gameplay.

It's just so annoying to not be able to buff with these without being in combat and without Bloodrage. It's a simple QoL to remove their rage costs, if you want to give them mana or energy cost to compensate.

-Big Daddy- (should be pretty effective on a tauren lol)
Helm: Deepdive Helmet
Shoulders: Dawnbringer Shoulders (alt. Myrmidon's Pauldrons)
Chest: Lord's Breastplate
Shirt: Fine Cloth Shirt
Gloves: Granite Grips
Belt: Monsoon Belt
Legs: Lord's Leggings
Boots: Blood Guard's Plate Boots
Weapon: Whirring Chainblade (alt. Finkle's Lava Dredger / Finkle's Weed Whacker)
Shield: Force Reactive Disk (alt. Gizlock's Hypertech Buckler)

EDIT: Use Sorka's Chainfist as a weapon if you want to mimic Bioshock's Big Daddys as closely as possible.

-Space Marine-
Helm: Goblin Rocket Helmet
Shoulders: Field Plate Pauldrons
Chest: Redeemer's Plate
Bracers: Heavy Draenic Bracers
Gloves: Worn Mag'hari Gauntlets
Belt: Hidden Waist (alternatively, there are a lot of fitting belts from mail and plate)
Legs: Flamewaker Legplates
Boots: Wind Dancer Boots
Staff: Lever of the Megantholithic Apparatus (Green version)
Ranged Weapon: Supervolt Zapper

Make Tomes of Specialization universal (not specifically to unlock the 2nd or 3rd etc spec, but the next one, similar to how personal bank tabs and mystic presets work).

Currently the cost of getting another spec, especially the later ones is frankly ridiculous for a server that's supposed to be encouraging build experimentation and multispeccing. There are also other factors that bring in additional cost to having many specs, like bag/bank space for the gear sets, mystic enchant presets if you're reusing sets, etc. Making multispeccing cheaper will help new players experiment more and have more fun with the game overall.

The price could be bumped up from the 1k that Spec 2 currently costs, up to 2-3k (20-30 DP) if necessary, but have the second spec be a reward from Path of Ascension quests after hitting 70, for new players' sake.

Until we get a proper forum for transmogs, let's use this thread to share and show-off our stylish transmogs! Share as much as a whole piece list with alternatives, or as little as a screenshot, it's up to you.

I'll start with 3 of my spellbreaker-esque transmogs I've done. All of them have been made with the MogIt addon from the launcher.

-Battlemage-
Helm: Barbaric Iron Helm
Shoulders: Mantle of Tirisfal
Cape: Royal Cloak of the Sunstriders
Chest: Wrathfin Armor
Shirt: Sawbones Shirt (2% drop chance from a boss in scholomance, hell to farm, use any red or black shirt you want if you don't want to farm it, it's also BoP)
Bracers: Hidden Wrists (required to show the shirt sleeves)
Gloves: Sentry's Gloves
Belt: Tracker's Belt
Legs: Bloodtinged Kilt
Boots: Sentry's Slippers
Weapon: Glaive of the Satyr Lord
Shield: Overlord's Shield

-Spellbreaker-
Helm: Helm of Infinite Visions
Shoulders: Champion's Lamellar Shoulders (get a horde to buy them for you if you're alliance)
Cape: Blood Knight War Cloak
Chest: High Warlord's Scaled Chestpiece (same as above)
Shirt: Sawbones Shirt
Bracers: Hidden Wrists
Gloves: Tribal Gloves
Belt: Goblin Girdle
Legs: Bloodtinged Kilt
Boots: General's Lamellar Boots
Weapon: Two Daggers Tied Together (Get Backsheath version if you prefer it)
Shield: Gladiator's Shield Wall (alt. Bloodforged Guard)

-Warcaster
Helm: Shamanistic Helmet of Second Sight
Shoulders: Beast Lord Mantle
Chest: Bulwark of Kings
Shirt: Sawbones Shirt
Bracers: Hidden Wrists
Gloves: Sentry's Gloves
Belt: Girdle of Ferocity
Legs: Bloodtinged Kilt
Boots: Sentry's Slippers
Weapon: Naga Gutripper
Shield: Shield of Impenetrable Darkness

Make sure to check the addon or the ascension database or wowhead for items with the same or similar appearance that may be easier for you to get. There are also quite a few pieces that also fit these sets, if you want to tweak them to your liking.
I'm eager to see your transmogs!

@Shaboigan In the first page of your spellbook you should have a little spell called "Criminal Intent" that makes you hostile to your own faction. Unfortunately you cannot join the opposite faction, just fight your own.
Have fun!

@DoubleDiamond Yeah, especially for quests, I don't think I've ever seen another player queued for a quest. But I've made so many friends from leveling dungeons using this tool, the best was when you found a nice group you could chat and joke around with, for a longass dungeon like BRD, I always used to take a screenshot of the 5 of us on the final boss' throne and still get hit with nostalgia when I stumble upon those screenshots. Quite the emotional damage. Never had a similar experience with RDF, and not for a lack of trying.

Here is a little screenshot I took of it for nostalgic purposes:

@DisplayedName Doing this outside the game would just be too much hassle for most people. It reminds me of marketplace websites for games like Warframe, and how much I absolutely hated using them.

However, back before the current RDF system was implemented in WotLK, there was a simpler LFG system that functioned a lot like what you just described. You basically select the content you want (dungeons, raids, even PvP, quests and openworld bosses) and enlist your character, writing a short description like your role, ilvl and spec or whatever, and it would list you for all people that are using the tool to search for people for said content, and they can whisper you and invite you - there was no automation, like RDF has currently that automatically creates groups and teleports all of you to the dungeon - and I think that's important, because people have forgot how to communicate in such dungeon groups thanks to such "conveniences", helped further by the drop of difficulty of all dungeons, so they can be completed by brainless button-mashing monkeys, and so any communications about pulls, CC and boss mechanics are completely unnecessary (lol, remember when we'd have to mark moon on a mob and tell the mage to poly the moon? Pepperidge farm remembers!)

But having it ingame was actually very convenient, because you could list and unlist whenever you wanted, and the list would update in real time, and you wouldn't have to minimize the game to open your browser or whatever.
If they could bring back this system from vanilla and TBC, I think it would do some good, but I fear the convenience from RDF is too embedded in people's expectations of modern-day MMOs and there would be a huge backlash if it were to be removed.

If such a thing becomes reality, at the very least make it unable to repair, so that, you know, REPAIR bots could have a purpose too for all the people who got engineering cuz of that (It's in the name!)

@Tarenar With bloodforging, you can just buy whatever gear you need for transmog with gold from other players. Just find someone that is honor capped and doesn't know what to do with their honor, and ask them to buy you whatever PvP piece you need for your mog, then pay them for their honor points.

@Elgrandbebos Yes, but they're exclusive to engineers.

@Gilgameesh So you just complete the previous quest with the escort at Dreamwarden Lurosa and there is no followup quest at all? It sounds like a bug, open a ticket ingame and have a GM help you.
Another thing to ask, do you have 300 riding, since that's required for the quest chain (you shouldn't be able to start it without 300 riding, but it's still something to consider)
Sorry I couldn't be of further assistance.

@Gilgameesh Please elaborate how you're unable to proceed. Can you not complete the quest after the escort? Can you not accept the next one? Do you not receive the quest item to bring back to Zangarmarsh?

To clarify: This is the escort quest: https://classlessdb.com/?quest=10965
Have you completed it?
This is the followup quest that says to return to Zangarmarsh: https://classlessdb.com/?quest=10978
Have you accepted it?
Make sure you are talking to the right NPCs (as written in the links above) for completing and accepting the quests and that you still have the quest items required.

@Gilgameesh Yes I've done the quest and can confirm it (used to?) works. Although it does not award swift flight form, as @TastyGM said.
Can you link me which quest exactly is giving you trouble and which part of it?
