It is time. Spell breakers and necromancers

We have a melee/caster of almost all variants of magic.

We have priests to paladins. (Holy)

We have warlocks to demon hunters. (Fel)

We have druids to monks (sorta) (Nature)

We have hunters to warriors (physical)

We need spell breakers/battle mages (sword and board arcane class) to pair with mages.

We need necromancers (make it specialize on ranged pets) to pair with death knights.

Let us finish the melee to range cycle. And bring about adding these 2 classes.

Paladins.

Warlocks.

Don’t use arcane. They use holy magic. Also the class is not purely a sword/board class, it has a 2-hand spec.

Only one pet has range. Not a ranged pet specialist. Also uses fel, not necromatic magic.

There are enough classes/specs/races in the game. Seriously.

I’d go for some Battle Mages and Necromancers ala Diablo for sure.

Don’t know how it could all work with DK’s and such but it sounds fun!

Magic is magic.

Different magic does different stuff.

I think necromancers can be a class skin for warlocks.

Different spells do different things.

Magic is magic.

Try EQ lol.

Give necromancers more “powerful” types of undead, like for example vyrkur, liches, skeletal mages, etc.

As for spell breakers/battle mages, they can create a story where they use arcane rune magic stored in their sheilds for different effects.

There is this thing called a magic chart. WoW has several different magical types with their own rules on what they can more easily do or struggle to do. This isn’t harry potter.

Nah, too lazy.

Pixels is pixels.

Some are different colors, though.

What missing gameplay style do these bring that isnt already available?

Sword board dps spec/arcane style tank or healing. (Spell breaker) also another class that could use mail. We lack a mail tank for some strange reason, lack a sword and board dps, and brings a new flavor of class into the game (since mage blades or in pathfinder terms magus seeks battle and want to challenge themselves in combat) of an arcane user that actively find new ways of fighting. This would also bring in a new sheild class (something not brought in since vanilla)

Necromancer: A new type of focused pet gameplay, we lack a class that uses ranged pets. We also could use more frost/unholy type of fighting. One can even focus on the user becoming a lich himself which reflects on necromancer lore. We also did not get a new cloth class in forever.

Ele shaman, and previously glad stance warrior, which was removed for being troublesome and difficult to balance.

Demo lock has a ton of variety in pets, most of which are ranged. Also DK has gargoyle and mages in their army and apoc. (Talent dependant)

I don’t want my class to be super watered down

We’re not warlocks, they actually receive attention
