Yes and as someone who works in tech I think they did what’s best.
There’s only so many hours in a day and you did see all that they’re planning in the expac reveal.
Revamping baseline systems is a LOT of work.
Shaman was horde only. Unless you’re telling me gnomes could be horde, that’s irrelevant.
You used paladin in your example. Your counter argument is poop.
And paladin was alliance only in vanilla…
Like can you not remember what you posted?
- Add a Draven-style ranged spec to Demon hunter - glaive juggling from ranged, eyebeam, orbs, sigils, etc.
- Add this earth evoker/tank spec black dragonflight
- allow nightborne and void elf to be demon hunters, cuz whatever
problem solved
Legend:
M = Melee
T = Tank
H = Healer
R = Ranged
Total Hero Class Additions with changes above:
+4 tanks, +2 healers +2 ranged +4 melee
All 11 Classes:
Hero Classes
DH - M/T/R (new)
DK - M/M/T
Monk - M/T/H
Evoker - T/H/R (new)
Total Hero Class Additions:
+4 tanks, +2 healers +2 ranged +4 melee
Old School Classes
Shaman - M/H/R
Paladin - M/T/H
Hunter - M/R/R
Warlock - R/R/R
Mage - R/R/R
Priest - H/H/R
Rogue - M/M/M
Warrior - M/M/T
Druid - M/T/H/R
Total Old School Classes
M = 9
T = 3
H = 5
R = 11
Total Available Class/Roles if Evoker and DH got a 3rd spec
M = 13
T = 7
H = 7
R = 13
Seems like adding a tank role to Evoker and a ranged spec to DH balances out the “scales” pun intended. Granted some of these classes really fill (1) role but have 3 specs they can use to do so (mage/warlock/rogue). The point is there is no Healer/Ranged/Tank combination in the game other than Druid, but druid has any combination.
Unless the next Hero class is strictly a 2 spec, ranged + tank class (maybe something with the tinker/engineer type of class) - this would be a good opportunity to expand DH’s role and lore post legion, and fulfill tanking as a dragon fantasy.
Can’t you? I just said there was 2 healer classes available to most of the alliance, priest and paladin, and each races had a short options of classes available so the odds of gnomes couldn’t be healer understandable. And again, gnomes wasn’t the only race released in its expansion.
Do you remember what you posted?
So basically you’re here to argue and fight and simply are bad at it.
Can we please put the side chatter about ‘what was in vanilla’ and ‘what we’d like in demon hunter’ to another thread? This is about a whole race being made of papier maché

You argued on stuff you don’t even know. Like shaman on vanilla alliance, what? Stop digging.
You are trying to say I said that. I did not, but you suck at debate and so are trying to set up an argument by pretending I said things.
I simply pointed out that you tried to ignore shaman after you used paladin cause you stated there only existed 2 healers.
Then you gave 3 examples of healers and I pointed out shaman exist.
And you’re trying to pretend that didn’t happen and pretend something else did happen…
They’re made of cola tabs cause they wear mail

I doubt they will add more specs to current classes or Evoker. I do think they might be persuaded to unlock other classes for the Drakthyr. Every race has a warrior. Dragons are tied to shamans (earthen ring), druids, mages, etc. It just probably won’t be this xpan.
If people really want a tank spec for Evoker then I do think they should keep asking. The worst that can happen is they say no, but if you don’t ask for what you want you definitely won’t get it. Good luck though

Thanks!
We definitely need to at least push for another class to be given to them so they can tank, but I still have my hopes up for the power fantasy of a mage tank.

Maybe they were going to use black dragon flight powers tank spec but they ran out of time to make it and will add it in a later expansion. Since they using red/blue dps and green/yellow healer.

we were talking about gnomes in vanilla
Priest paladin were the only healers that could have been available to them but then again that’s completely irrelevant because gnomes aren’t the defining factor of an expansion.
Ok so you’re talking about gnomes now, gotcha.
Going by your logic then, Monks should have just been DPS / Healers, Demon Hunters should have been pure DPS, and Dracthyr should have been the first to have all three roles
In a perfect scenario (where as part of that, there is no tank shortage) that MIGHT have been ideal… but we are not in a perfect scenario now, are we?
There were REASONS why every new class had a tanking spec
Heal/RDPS/RDPS would have been perfect. Melee needs to chill for a bit. We’ve had 3 classes added and 0 ranged specs among them unless you count MW.
Healer spec, Ranged focused on direct damage, and ranged with a new flair, maybe something similar to the revamped version of Summoner in FF14 where you summon different aspects for 20-30 seconds at a time and it changes your playstyle depending on the active aspect.
homie, melee is chill, the tanks want to be dragons and you just spat on them and called them their brother’s name
