I notice no one is excited about mechagnomes

For that very reason. Why ask the question you clearly know the answer to? I mean if Blizzard did one thing wrong with this entire Allied Race system it is in my opinion that they did not keep it balanced. By balanced I mean new vs obvious reskins.

Never should Mechagnomes been released with Vulpera. Mechagnomes should have been paired with the Gilgoblin. Am I right? Those seem like a reasonable pairing. As would giving the Alliance an Allied race such as the Sethrak when the Horde got Vulpera. Way more balanced In my honest opinion. But Blizzard just keeps screwing up one thing then another one after another.

Human decency you ask? You are asking way too much from people on these forums. Its such ashame. Unless you are rooting for one of the most popular things on this forums, people are going to consistently trash whatever idea that is. I feel like there needs to be someone looking out for the more underrepresented ideas and races.

Poor taste and unwise life decisions.

Vulpera, indeed.

I like them better than regular gnomes. I’d make one of them, but i wouldn’t make a normal gnome.

I know right, I’m also surprised Horde are not offended by this plush toy race they are getting.

I’m excited! I’d be more excited if we got a new class to play that gnomes can’t currently play though (below), but I have a few names reserved. :slight_smile:

I’m interested in rolling one but after the Zanda, there’s little else to actually be excited for (except some type of reptilian AR, not necessarily Sethrak as I would love Saurok)

There was a pic of a MG as a DK over on mmo-champ that I really liked. Will try and find link…

Diapers. Rusted.

That’s why I’m not excited. The racials are getting nerfed soon (they’re too absurd not to) and the customization / transmogging that is offered by mechagnomes is deplorable.

I’m a transmogger and I won’t be playing them. Also, since Alliance can’t have nice things, I’ll be playing Vulpera on Horde. Or Classic.

Actually if it wasn’t for the Human racial then Humans would be the least played in the game.

My only real problem with mechagnomes is how Tmog works with them… And I can’t see myself getting engaged in a character I don’t like looking at.

This is actually what i’ll be naming mine. Plan on using the Junkyard title so i can be Junkyard Trash the Mechagnome.

Mechagnomes have nothing to do with that sub-culture.
Please don’t insult people who are genuinely interested in Steampunk with something so undignified.

Kinda hard when you’re comparing bloodthirsty pyromaniacs to short humans with body dismorphia that wear diapers.

I have been hoping since they are getting added. Some time soon, since it probably wont be an expansion cause reasons. So, either a full on patch or some mini patch event, something to do with Gnomes vs. Goblins. A war of the wits and tech.

Hell. Hearthstone already done it before WoW…

is that fan made? I didn’t think Mechagnomes could wear boots (or, err…kneepads?)

Having sat in the heart to do the Christmas achievement were you do something to race class combos… Dwarves are the least played race by a long shot.

If true that will change so fast with their amazing customization options that are coming up.

I’m not really planning on rolling a mechagnome, but I am looking forward to people posting on them and doing forum RP. Thats always fun to read.

For anyone wondering where the excitement is reference the imgur link above.
If anyone feels so inclined and has link posting permission, feel free to repost the above.

i went back and looked at their racials and class availability and i gotta say. i was originally gonna make a mecha hunter but after seeing the dk. im convinced that this is the road i wanna go down. i dont have any gnomes or any dks so this will be perfect. gonna give him alchemy and either bs or jewelcraft for those extra perks. people talk about the combat analysis racial getting nerfed but i think im more hyped for hyper organic originator and emergency failsafe. that could come up clutch in pvp no doubt. ive linked a pic of a mechagnome dk and you cant even tell me they dont look sick af.

I’m just not excited to play Alliance in general.
