i could possibly see the concept of bard mutating into shaman (ranged, dps, heal) with how much utility shaman had in vanilla, and also because thematically the horde with no shaman class would probably not be anywhere as interesting. that, and bards not really fitting with them either.

This could be just made up, dracthyrs basically were made in the image of the aspects. Like, they could do a bard hero and continue from that. It doesn’t have to root far.
To be fair there isn’t anything heroic about a hunter or a priest or a tinker either. It’s just up to the creativity of the devs.
I didn’t quote the first part because we just blatantly disagree. I think we both agree we don’t wanna share our opinions against each other all day

During Darkmoon faire the 2 bands are both horde side characters.
Ive often wondered what an alliance side band would be like?
Some humans / elves doing frilly foppy “Hey nonnie nonnie Hye nonnie nonnie” stuff? haha
Maybe some Gnomes & Dranei to do some kind of EDM-ish music.
Worgen doing some kinda punk rock?
Dwarves doing drum and bass!

Weird considering there’s already Bards in WoW that use Bard magic/abilities.
Also before Illidan was created n written to be a Demon Hunter in WCIII, Demon Hunters weren’t a thing, among tons of other examples. What a lazy n weak argument from you. lol.

We had signs of the black dragons creating artificial chromatic dragons for multiple expansions though. We even had Netharian creating a humanoid dragon man that we fought in Cataclysm.
I’m not seeing anything close to that level of groundwork for a Bard class.

Rexxar, Anduin, and Mekkatorque aren’t heroes?

You’re the only one here sharing an opinion.
Cool, can you tell me the difference between music magic and standard magic? In other words, we have magical classes in WoW that already have song and sound magic. What would a Bard class do that our current classes can’t do?
Zereth Mortis called.
We spoke in different viewpoints here. A normal hunter as we understand it, doesn’t have any heroic capabilities nor does a priest. In a game setting anything is possible. I looked up the TTRPG out of curiosity and you could even make the “Aristocrat” class heroic by introducing elite nobility with cash based magic that is able, for example, tear down Deathwing. Heroic.
What? We both are, you made a rule out of how you perceive things. That’s an opinion.

I want to “Kabo ng” like Quick Draw. (not allowed to post the word bo ng") He and Baba looey would make great bards
It’s all magic. Bardic magic is applied from the music they play. i can only assume you never played any game that featured a Bard class, or avoided the class if you have played such a game.
We don’t.
Bards tend to be a support class traditionally, but can dish out some damage as well.
You def have never played a Bard class in any game n it shows.
Youse a fake nerd!

To be fair, same question could be asked about tinker. There isn’t anything new you can come up with mechanically at least I don’t think so.
My words are no more semantic than yours have been rofl.
Sure. Doesn’t mean Evokers existed before we got them and we factually didn’t have any existent until DF.
Sooo. No it doesn’t change the facts you ignore to try to make your point without reason.
Yes. I said that in the first post. Much like it’s your opinion they’d not make a good class or it’s your opinion their abilities would somehow be part of another class.
Gonna also ask where these imaginary rules you’ve come up with come from?

Just allow us to craft instruments that turn us into hunting horn mains. We get to blast some tunage for buffs!
Well that wouldn’t be true, because Hunters, Priests, and Tinkers are based on heroes, which in turn gives them the capability to be heroic.
The problem with Bards in Warcraft is that they aren’t based on heroes, so they don’t have any heroic capabilities.
we all said te same thing about lightforge becoming warlocks and look where we are.
Mech Suit (provides multiple new mechanics)
Robotic devices that leave scrap
Upgradeable devices
Non magic-based healing
There were no Evoker characters prior to Dragonflight either.

That’s fair, I hadn’t considered a lack of existing Lore characters tied to a Bard class.
But, that can easily be retconned to have been a part of pandarian life all along. Barding goes hand in hand with storytelling.
But, my argument for Bard is mainly tied to my desire for literally any other support class to exist in the game. I just want to see Aug have something to compete against for its role. Earn it’s place like the rest of us. I’d like it to be Bard because I’ve theory crafted specs for it, but I will take any class that comes with support spec(s).
