16 Years old and No Tinker Class

Correct, I agree they should not have added those either.

Either way, I disagree with whatever statistical analysis you are using for this argument.

The two most recent classes are in a perpetual state of imbalance.
You could say that about DK for a long time too frankly.

I do not wish to see this continue.

I play both of those classes and enjoy them.
I frankly do not see your point in the slightest.

Yes. Class design is shoddy In some places, class design has been shoddy for 16 years now. A new class won’t change that.

And more importantly, the absence of a new class won’t change that either.

We have a lot of magical ranged dps.

Actually no I don’t. I haven’t made a tinker thread in over 24 hours and then some.

The currently trending tinker threads. Weren’t made by me.
Guess I’m gaining steam :sunglasses:

I know you don’t.
Its no worries.

Either way, they aren’t adding a new class for at least 2 years so plenty of time to see things change over time.

I just hope they will never add a new class because it would be reckless and detrimental to end game balancing.

I’d rather them spend more time on making the specs we have even more fun, like what they did in Shadowlands.

I actually spoke to you in the last 3 threads on this subject, so I’d know you. But maybe we should keep it in those threads?

If they hadn’t added those classes then it would just have been the classic classes in a perpetual state of imbalance. Removing Ret Paladins and Balance Druids would have technically improved balance in Classis. Should they have done that? Then what about the specs left at the bottom after that? How big a DPS range is too big?

You spelt Bard wrong. Please readdress your post with the correct class title. Kthnxbye.

I appreciate your passion on the topic, but we just aren’t seeing eye to eye so. No worries!

Its just how I feel about it. Could easily be wrong. I am about many things haha

I didn’t make the most recent tinker threads.
I don’t remember name very well but there was an entire concept made by a Human with a pumpkin head.
Another thread was made by a Draenei.
In fact I didn’t make a stand-alone post yesterday. I didn’t feel the need.

Tinkers rule.
Bards drool.

They also aren’t really part of the Warcraft universe

You spelled doesn’t-have-any-precedent-in-Warcraft-lore-is-a-support-class-which-WoW-doesn’t-have-and-we-don’t-need-to-shoehorn-every-D&D-class-into-WoW wrong.

we spoke here New Ranged Class? Tinkers! You also made that topic.

And this older thread here Tinker class = lame - #194 by Grandbrae-dalaran

My error, just 2 threads lol. but we spoke of ideas to good extent lol.

Eh worth a try.

Tinkerer is just a profession though :wink:

Yes Grandbrae I reckonized you from those threads.

But Threads die over time, And I didn’t even make a post yesterday

There just wasn’t a thread today. So I made one.

The first thread I linked was only 2 days old…

There is so much you can do with engineering lore in this game, that you can seperate the proffession engineering with an actual class though!

Hey don’t bring that nonsense here.
:triumph:
Had it with that.

2 days old and thoroughly exhausted. It won’t stay on the top page anymore.

You can feel any way you want. If you just don’t want Tinkers added because you don’t like the concept, that’s perfectly reasonable. But don’t make a technical argument and then say you don’t want to have a discussion around the data underlying that technical argument.

I’m not going to tell you you’re wrong for not wanting Tinkers. I’m am going to tell you you’re wrong for not wanting Tinkers for a reason that is probably false.

Neither of us have the facts on it is why I am avoiding it.

I just can’t believe that an extra class / 3 new specs would NOT impact balancing.
It just doesn’t sound logical.

If Blizzard told me otherwise, I would expect them not to be lying, but no one else would convince me otherwise after seeing how bad Monk has been and how absurdly strong DH has been for however long now.

I think the disconnect is you are trying to take a survey of every single spec in the game, and I am not.

I do not want Tinkers as a playable class, they are lame, amidst all the other options. Dark Rangers, Necromancers, Shadow Hunters… if it were up to me, Tinkers would never come, because there are better things.

I do have some facts actually that suggest their likelihood as a class.

There are hundreds of High Res assets in game already for such a class, including but not limited to Turrets, Mechs, Rockets, Shredders. You name it.
There are abilities already in game for the Tinker NPCs that already have Cooldowns and level requirements
These NPCs are also divided into 3 specializations.
There are Already Tinker NPCs on Exiles reach, that clearly do not coincide with any existing class.

I don’t think they’re lame. It’s not a great argument. It’s entirely subjective.

We were talking about the facts on the topic of balancing, sorry.

Yes, I know. I’m saying they are lame in case Blizzard watches these types of threads for opinions. I want to make sure I’m doing my part to prevent Tinkers from ever being added.
