What if I told you the Tinker healing spec is like plastic surgery and can make our toons hotter, would that win you over?
Only if it looks and feels natural and leaves no scars
The more you think about this, the weirder this change becomes.
This is a major spec change. Why would Blizzard decide to make a change of this magnitude mid-expansion? Typically stuff like this happens at the start of an expansion. Also this change wasn’t made because of performance, it’s purely based on thematics.
Again, very bizarre timing for a change like this.
Yea, like how the short bow was a signifigant technological upgrade.
and if this so-called Tinker were to have a Tank spec, this is absolutely what it would be.
Shield + Pistol and a Mech Summon as a long cooldown.
I mean, he literally said (and you quoted) he didn’t want to argue semantics. It’s obvious he was talking about guns and beyond, not sticks and stones and swords as the subject is Tinkers.
I was arguing with the person who brought up semantics, not OP. I only quoted OP to tag them in my response, which they liked
Fair enough. My bad.
: pulls out pitchfork, ready to argue :
Wait…
…dang it!
All good brother! Merry Christmas
I wish I could skip ahead to the 11.2 announcement and then the 12.0 announcement so the relentless talk about tinkers can finally be put to bed.
Nah, if they aren’t in the 12.0 announcement, which they definitely won’t be, then people will be hyping them up for the 13.0 announcement.
A new class is coming for sure by the time this expansion trilogy is done.
why/how did this even become a thing?
I took a month or two break from the WoW forums and then came back and every other thread is Tinker this and Tinker that.
seems like a meme at this point.
Goblin themed patch and then some crazies thinking it meant Blizzard would release Tinker mid expansion somehow. And then when that obviously wasn’t happening trying to push for it in the Light vs. Shadow and Elf themed Midnight.
we talking body slider additions?
I’d even run up rep/renown for days to get that.
new class:gunfist.
Summary of this post
Thing is that Tinkers also have a strong chance to show up in 13.0 due to the theme.
It’s not all that crazy if you understand how Blizzard implements classes. In fact, a mid-expansion class release is still quite possible. Stuff like this might be an indicator.
And this guy here was telling me in the other thread that Necromancers won’t come because they just don’t fit the current theme. But all of a sudden he pulls an 180 turn when it’s about the Tinkerer class. Funny stuff.
