Will BFA has more classwide utility?
There should be more class-wide strengths; you didn't just pick a fire mage, you picked a mage at character creation. All members of a class should be able to contribute something.

How are you planning on keeping all classes interesting if you're only planning on keeping a few artifact abilities and traits?
The classes weren't really designed around the artifacts, the artifacts were more laid on top of the base class. When balancing, they definitely consider the artifacts in mind.

In BFA, the Azerite armor will add some additional customization to the base game but when removing artifacts they know that the rotation may have gaps in them and they'll need to make sure to fill those gaps. Artifacts may feel inseparable from your base class since it's been so long and hopefully it feels different with Azerite in BFA.

Are we going to see an in-depth rework for Survival Hunter?
In this case they put spec fantasy above class fantasy. At level 10, survival hunters just forgot how to use a bow. The new survival will likely have a better combination of ranged and melee abilities.

Is the removal of blink-type movement talents from Shaman and Druid from Datamining one of the class uniqueness removals?
Because it's described as a Blink-type movement, it kind of tells that it's a too much homogenization to a Mage's blink. Druids and Shaman have alwayus been about shapeshifting and moving faster. Blink is super fun and potent but they want to make other classes feel fun and potent in their own way.

Are there thoughts on Titanforged Weapons in BFA?
At the end of the day, the LFR person with an 975 helm, will likely have LFR gear in the rest of their slots which averages out. However, weapons definitely threaten the balance of average because generally a weapon is worth more than other pieces.

The current thinking is to not let weapons Titanforge but only Warforge (+5 item levels)

They also think that Titanforging is too common in Legion.
