How would you implement Blademaster?

It would be cool if every class had an option for a heroic spec but I have no idea how that would go about being implemented.

Nah. Blademaster is a distinctly orc thing. It would be nice if there were some glyphs or new talents to add to the blademaster fantasy, though.

edit

I didnā€™t realize Telaamon was a Blademaster. He may have been the only one among the draenei, though. So the Allianceā€™s chances of having Blademasters may have died with him.

Account created b4 2010 :^) how to make everyone mad.

This could be a cool gap closer. Speed buff + short-term stealth. Wouldnā€™t be too op at all

That could easily be done with pet mechanics. Just summon 3 copies of your character with lower health and damage.

When 4th specs come out this could be a new 2h spec for either monks or rogues.

Blademasters are based loosely on Samurai. Samurai are warriors, not monks.

Monks also canā€™t use 2H Swords, nor can Rogues use 2H Swords and Polearms.

I said the same, but the lore and gameplay of arms warrior is nothing close to the blizzard blademaster

That is depressingly true. :frowning:
The closest Iā€™ve come to a Blademaster gameplay-wise is a Survival Hunter.
