Dear Devs,
Something occured to me seeing the new shaman transformation look…
THEY LITERALLY REMIND ME OF BWONSAMDI !! then i realized aren’t we good in the Orc Shaman Genre?? Can we go down the rabbit hole of Voodoo?? Witch Doctor hero Class?? Come on Guys with that wild hair look literally have Bwonsamdi Written on its Forehead -_-
I’m just saying shamans are a lil’ uber elemented out …The hero Class Selection should allow us to venture down the witch doctor mode and deal with Lua elements even summon one of those Wild Hair Women Ghost we always see through every expansion…
Or have your own Voodoo Mask Companion… Come on guys that would be way more cooler than…Farseer …
Its like Ya’ll just kicked Voljin and his people shaman Culture to the curb 
(Voljin is literally in the background of the talent page lol )
I’m sure alliance wouldn’t mind having a little Voodoo running through Stormwind lol
Just Sayin…
P.S Still love the Expansion and you guys Most off all 
Sincerely ,
Gruldan

Witch Doctor should be its own class!

I’ve always wanted racial hero classes, but I understand that it likely wouldn’t work in practice.
Darkspear Shadow Hunter, Blood Elf Spellbreaker, Dwarven Artilleryman, etc.
Fun in theory, at least.

That’s the RPG element. You have to RP yourself as a Dwarven Artilleryman.
It helps if you drink IRL while playing. Really get into that Dwarven mindset.
I think if Elves can have Demon Hunter Trolls can have Witch Doctor. I see no reason not to. We already have a elf exclusive class. Evoker is Dracthyr exclusive… Trolls deserve that love.

That would be Shadow Hunters, wouldn’t it?

All troll casters are witch doctor’s, because witch doctor is just what trolls call their magic users.
Honestly Tinker\Alchemist are the only hero units from WC3 that aren’t either already represented in some way or unlikely to happen due to their “class” being their species.
Elves are in both factions and Drakthyr are neutral.
They wouldn’t make a troll-only class unless the Alliance had a troll race that could use that class.
Trolls would not join the Alliance. The Alliance would most likely be unwelcoming to Trolls. The Alliance can get a class exclusive to them if Horde gets Witch Doctors or Shadow Hunters.

Alliance can get a unique class just for them. It could be like when Paladin and Shaman were faction classes. That made factions more unique and less generic and bland. Shadow Hunters are Warcraft 3 units also. They are not yet in game. Also Shamans are not Shadow Hunters. Horde players have wanted Witch Doctors and Shadow Hunters for years. This could be a good opportunity for Blizzard to make factions more unique again. To be a Witch Doctor involves the use of Juju, alchemy and Voodoo. Voodoo is a religion. It seems a oversimplification to say that it is just Troll magic.

Doesn’t a troll witch doctor do the same magic effects but just wear a funny hat and talk with an accent while doing it?
They fixed that because faction locked classes were bad, and they still are.
Having their own words for magic doesn’t mean it isn’t just magic.
The Japanese word for music is Ongaku. No one could argue that Ongaku doesn’t count as music just because they don’t use the English word “Music”.
Not every race in the game gains power from Loa and uses E’ko in Juju magic. Voodoo in Wow is based on Vodou. Vodou is a real religion that has more to it than magic. It is a closed practice that requires initiation. Many people don’t understand Vodou because they have never been involved in it.

No… Their magic comes from Voodoo. The worship of Loa and Juju which uses E’ko a type of spiritual essence to preform magic. It is a blend of religious practices and magic. It is not the same as a traditional mage. If it was that simple every magic user would be the same class.

I have a rogue who RP’s as a Shadow Hunter. She survived the Massacre of Zul’Farrak and was adopted by a family of Tauren healers, but she never recovered emotionally from the trauma. So she became a Shadow Hunter.
All I can say is…
It would be nice to have a real Shadow Hunter class with Big Bad Voodoo and Loa themed spells. Rouges just don’t feel the same to me. I am glad you enjoy it.
