Gnome Starting Zone proves We're missing a class

It goes quite a bit beyond that. The leaders and heroes of the Goblins and the Gnomes are almost all inventors. Heck, both Gnome and Goblin faction leaders fight inside mechs.

In your case, Night Elf leaders are Malfurion, a Druid, and Tyrande, a Priest with some Hunter attributes. You can BE like them if you wish. You can even be like Malfurion’s insane little brother and be a Demon Hunter.

Gnomes and Goblins players should be able to do the same thing with Mekkatorque and Gazlowe.

Your biggest competition really is just Blizzard… they rather use resources and double down on horrible systems rather then actually listening to the community .

I can’t believe this is about to happen, but here goes. I’m gonna stand up for Blizzard.

I Agree they would rather use their resources on… questionable things

But if there are 2 things you can always count on blizzard for It’s:

1. copying from WarCraft 3
2. Re using old assets.

A Tinker class would do both, and do a stellar job of it.

I Agree blizzard is in an odd place, but they’ve never let me down in all 15 years when it comes to feeling like “WarCraft”

Similarly, You could look at the Orcs. From Warcraft 3. They have Burly Tauren units, with Shockwave and War Stomp, Wise Farseers with Spirit Wolf pets and Chain Lightning.

Or the Humans, With powerful Mages with Arcane Intellect and Blizzard. or Paladins with Redemption, Auras and powerful healing.

The Gnome starting zone is awesome, but it’s missing something, There isn’t a class that “fits” the theme of the zone. There are Tinkers, Mechanics, and Technicians everywhere. Machinery is a core foundation of everything in Gnome society. Every single one of their buildings has Gears and Technology bursting at the seams.

But yet, I’m forced to pick a class that doesn’t represent those themes.
None of the classes do.

Alright Blizz you heard OP, roll the starting zone back to the original

Well, I did say that my problem was there isn’t a class that represents Goblin or Gnome Culture.

I suppose that means there are Two solutions.

1. Add a Class.
2. Retcon the game and retroactively remove all Tinker Culture from Gnomes and Goblins.

And Honestly, I think a new class would be easier.
