Considering you are in a Tinker Megathread, Why do you feel this way exactly? Can you explain your opinion?
Tinkers are a Part of WarCraft Lore and we see them in game all the time. Why should players be removed from this?
Say for example, We had Druid NPCs everywhere, and we saw Malfurion doing his thing, but players couldn’t be druids. There would be a similar request from the players.
Err no, I just can’t picture draenei, void elves, orcs or nightborne being that class. Jesus, how about you just admit you overreacted and that according to you no one else can have an opinion that isn’t that of the op’s. I am not going to say these races would suit a tinker, no way. I’d laugh at a bloody nightborn tinker lol.
I can’t understand why you’ve just started a fight with me and no one elses opinion lol, troll else where, Jesus Christ.
you asked this question the other day is that all you ask every time some on says they dont want a tinker class?
Yea gnomes and goblins should have a unique class to boost their popularity. Maybe vulpera and mechagnomes maybe
are you ready to be replaced in all content by the new op class with guns? boomies,locks and mages arnt going anywhere but you will be picked last and or replaced.
are you ready?
Yes, Generally speaking I expect people to back up their assertions with reason or evidence.
I try my best to do so, Which is why I posed hypothetical questions for you to answer.
Admittedly, we do see both of these races in Mechs throughout the game’s history
keep waiting.
Okay, you have proven to me you have nothing of substance to offer to this thread other than, “I don’t Want it”
Sure?
Raiding and m+ ain’t the only way to play nor do all guilds just run with whatever folk think is best.
I also can’t really claim that will even happen. If I rejected everything in fear of random toolset issues I’d be a mess!
No idea if its been posted, but similar to how Death Knights get Runecarving for their weapons, it would be interesting if Tinkers got a sort of “Tinkering” Profession thats similar to Engineering that they use to craft bombs or ammunition that lasts forever, but they can only have limited active at a time. Free to craft of course.
Like. 10 bombs options, 5 ammo options. Making it turns it into a passive buff on your character, augmenting their abilities. Add in some other stuff too?
Alternatively, just give them Engineering as a ‘free’ profession, with bonus recipes to follow the same theme I posted above. Always at the top of the list, free to make, but they would have to level Engineering like normal (but can get 3 professions this way).
As for races. I’m a fan of trying to keep it balanced between factions so…
Human - Orc
Dwarf - Blood Elf
Gnome - Goblin
Draenei - Forsaken
Dark Iron - Mag’har
Lightforged - Nightborne
Mechagnome - Zandalari…?
A Frequent Poster named Clockworth has mentioned a neat idea, where the engineering profession could be used to build special cosmetics for the Tinker Class.
Different Apperances for Shredders and Turrets and such. Like Inscription Glyphs.
That’d be something to add to it! I just find find the idea that they can build different ammo types to affect their auto-attacks, similar to Runecarving Deathknight Enchantments on their weapons (probably functioning the same way in this case, of being an ‘enchantment’ on their gun).
Replying to my own post to offer an alternate idea for race choices.
Gnome - Goblin (Obvious)
Dwarf - Blood Elf (Dwarf Golems / Blood Golems)
Lightforged - Nightborne (Mech Suits / Arcane Golems)
Dark Iron - Mag’har (Golems / Reavers)
Mechagnome (Obvious, but doesn’t allow for faction balance, Alliance just got more tinkering races lol)
Death to tinker ideas, birth to wardens and throwing circle glaives!!!
With the Faction Divide going mostly away, racial imbalances on avaialable classes don’t bother me nearly as much.
Fair point.
Hey, I mean I’ll take a Warden skin for Demon Hunters lol! Just like I’ll take a Necromancer skin for Warlocks. Cosmetic changes to make a world of difference.
I’m on this Clockworth fellows team. I haven’t made the post because I procrastinate and it’s a lot of brainstorming and I’d be less likely to cut corners like I did for this Tinker post haha. As I just wanted to rush this out before the announcement Tuesday.
But I FIRMLY believe ALL professions are in dire straights and need a huge overhaul, something like this Tinker class special crafting you mention I would prefer to be placed as a cornerstone of Engineering than something class related.
Cosmetic things I often vouch for, but depending on what they are it is very dangerous. Wardens skins for Demon Hunters, and Necromancer skins for Warlocks I like in concept but fear deeply. Since I know Blizzard well enough that if they were to do such a thing, it is the final death of hope for the actual class existing. They would call that close enough and close those chapters of characters forever.
