I'm happy about mechagnome

I’m actually looking forward to them. After fiddling around in the dressing room and looking at various mog options, I’m actually really enjoying the look.

I like the racials. HOLO looks like it’ll be fun, combat analysis is obviously strong, I plan on going heavy on the mecha theme with both my mogs and doing engineering so the Mastercraft is great for me, Skeleton pinkie is just neat and failsafe is also obviously good.

I’m already planning 2 characters, a rogue and a hunter. I actually enjoy mechagon, more so since I unlocked flying. I just really like the aesthetic.

I hear all the arguments about Horde gets X and how we have to do a dungeon to unlock, and yada yada yada… I just dont’ care. I play both factions, I’m focused on alliance right now, it just is what it is.

I for one am excited, who else is lookin forward to it? What are you making? What sorta mog ideas have you come up with? I saw some one mixing the heritage with some of that new SL Pre-order mog that looked real nice! I’ll probably do some of that. I’m really lookin forward to using that big tesla coil lookin staff from the Mechagon rare on a survival hunter and dual wielding a blowtorch and wrench on an outlaw rogue :slight_smile:

I am in the same boat friend! I am anxiously awaiting mechagnomes.

I think mechagon is my favorite dungeon wow has ever done, and I love all the mechagnome gear.

I will be running it for a long time to make sure DR-23R0 (priest) and MS-23R0 (undetermined) have appropriate armor, titles, and mounts to fit their aesthetic!

I’m probably taking mine Hunter, BM with two mechanical pets and a gun, and Engineer (of course). I have my 120 boost from the SL purchase waiting if I decide to use it. :slight_smile:

Still on the fence myself. While I like the racials, I cant get past them looking like they wear diapers.

Dont miss out on that heritage armor dude! Save the boost for a core race whose heritage you want.

I legitimately dont see that. They look fine to me.

Google wow diaper gnome and it should be within the first few images. Hard to look at mechagnomes the same after ALTHOUGH their heritage armor looks pretty good

I, for one, welcome our new mechanical overlords.

There will be at least 1 extra healer in queue with me rolling a mechagnome :slight_smile:

That was a meme someone tried to get going on Reddit.

They don’t look like they are wearing diapers at all.

I don’t know how these things gain traction… honestly…

Because it is cook to hate, especially when it comes to the alliance.

That wont stop me from playing mechagnomes though! To think I’ll have 4 or 5 extra bag slots for not needing crafting tools and can craft anywhere. That alone pretty much convinced me…

Yeah, this is where I’m at too. I still don’t know what professions I want though. Maybe Engineer, I don’t know about the other one, but yeah, being your own little crafting station is pretty awesome.

But they can already open locks with the skeleton pinkie! That was the main reason I boosted an alliance rogue through the AV event was for all of the lock boxes clogging up my banks.

My priest will be mining and engineer, I mean it’s a mechagnome. It feels required.

My other character though I am not sure. I dont have a gem crafter on the alliance yet. So I could do that. Or maybe an inscriptor, even if that is an utterly useless profession.

I am also looking forward to Mechagnomes. Plan on making a Hunter and having a whole army of mechanical pets!

I think I would have far more fun naming them then I would playing them.

I think they’re the worst race ever haha. but I also don’t like undead or Tauren. We Can’t like everything! Glad some enjoy them though.

I only have one Scribe.

If you don’t already have one, then maybe I could see it, but if you already do I wouldn’t do a second.

This is my JC, Draenei get a bonus. You could do your Mecha as one, but they wouldn’t get much of a bonus.

I think they will get the most benefit from Blacksmithing and Engineering, honestly. The tools they are “carrying” would be utilized most by those two professions, IMO.

I have enough miners that I could feed mine ore all day long.

I’ve got a blacksmith on the alliance already, so that is out as an option.
