Mechagnome Love Thread šŸ„°

Thereā€™s one appendage I am particularly fond of that I use a special hand attachment for.

Iā€™m talking about my trick pinkie you dirty dirty birdyā€¦

I am feeling more optimistic for mechagnomes in Dragonflight!

With the opening up of new race-class combinations, we may finally see (mecha)gnome paladins or shaman! The gnomes could learn to be paladins from the dwarves, or they could develop their own paladin order based on the Titans. With all of their electricity spells and work with ores and metals, I could see mechagnomes also adopting shamanism.

Additionally, it looks like one of the new dungeons will be an unexplored chamber of Uldaman. Uldaman was where the curse of the flesh transformed the mechagnomes and earthen into the earliest gnomes and dwarves. We may discover previously unknown clockwork mechagnomes, partially flesh-turned mechagnomes, or other gnome types.

And finally, it appears that the Explorerā€™s League will play a big role in exploring the new continent, with all of its hidden Titan vaults and lore. There is potential for mechagnomes to join their gnomish and dwarven brethren and learn more about their Titan heritage.

If Mechagnome Shaman becomes a thing.

Gnomest sends his regards and wishes you well with your thread.

Him and I also think your transmog is cute and fabulous :hugs:

Why thank you very much Hypheria. I have been hoping Gnomest would post more Gilgoblin animations. Also Iā€™m working to get enough anima to buy the bladed back piece. With all these Venthyr parties itā€™s hard to remain sober. I need to have a conversation with the accuser. She really seems to have her self control properly calibrated.

Oh let him learn a little. I think the Kyrian will give him some good pointers. Besides Iā€™m there I can keep an eye on him.

I very much would like to know how you acquired that and where to get some myself.

Iā€™d really enjoy some Mechagnome (and our Gnomeragan cousins) gettting paladins.

I like the idea of studying the Light to the point of being able to use it as a front line soldier. Its very effective against many of the worst things the world has to offer and its a primary power source that the titans utilize in their constructs.

Iā€™m very curious to see whats in store for this dungeon and its coming in the Pre-patch they said!

I can not wait!

I can imagine Mechagnomes bringing a whole new line of designs to the Explorers leagues technologies! And mixing that with the Reliquaryā€™s magisters should be interesting.

Gnomest did a mechanized Sethrak awhile back. Not sure if theyā€™ve done any more Kelfin stuff.

I still think the Kelfin should join the Horde as an Allied Race like we did. I find them much more agreeable than the land based model of goblin. That said I find goblins to be quite amazing tinkerers and very astute!

The Accuser reminds me of one of my grandmothers who had everything together and would keep everyone in line and on task.

Emphasis on ā€œSomehowā€, meaning I have no idea on how I got it.

Probably some other members in my realm have it.

(Pokes head out from behind Coaxial) See Rosie? Coaxial is with me. Besides thereā€™s this giant toga wearing smurf lady who runs the place who needs my help. I canā€™t just ignore a lady who needs me. Who knows I might even find love out here. Iā€™m so lonely.

A Techno-Shaman sounds so fun. I imagine them using tech to force the elements. Hand turns into a Flame Thrower or Tesla Coil.

Has anyone done any thorough research into the technology of these so called first ones? Iā€™m still too entrenched with the Venthyr lifestyle to look into it.

Right! Iā€™ll have to look into acquiring someā€¦ I hear it has many wonderful uses.

See? Heā€™ll be fine. Iā€™ll keep an eye on him when one of the Kyrian toss him off the ledge for a failed flirtation.

Besides I think the Kyrian could do some good learning from him as much as he could from them.

I think they should make deals like the goblins.

Goblin tech already uses harnessing elements from time to time, itā€™s worth checking out the tech ourselves.

Iā€™ve made some inroads.

Surprisingly many of the indigenous creatures in Zereth Mortis appear to not be mechanical at all. But theyā€™re all still very different from what I would call living subjects.

The Automa themselves are also far more complicated than they appear. Their internal workings seem acoustically based. Iā€™m having trouble making conversion ports for my tech.

I havenā€™t visited this zerith mortis. Revendreth still calls out to me. I wonder if anyone has asked to have the unused components of the original arbiter? I would imagine those pieces might give us better insight into the internal workings of these first one constructs.

An Anima /Fel admixture matrix may prove stable enough to contain such forces while we reverse engineer the technology.

Hmmā€¦ I believe that she disintegrated when Zovaal took back the seal within her chest and regained his former powers as the Arbiter.

Iā€™m not sure there are any pieces leftā€¦ though if there are it seems the custodians of Oribos consider her a reverent symbol or leader. I doubt they would be willing to part with its components in a similar way to the Church of the Light not letting me take their holy librams for testing.

The technology that made the Shadowlands seems immensely complicated and to work primarily acoustically on a very small level across thisā€¦ Pattern of Fractals they like to speak about.

So far my attempts to integrate with the technology on that level have been disastrous or just simple failures. I suspect it will be more complicated than normal.

Complicated though doesnā€™t mean impossibleā€¦
