So we’ll make you a worse rogue/dh class that’ll never be as good as the mains, for flavor 
Someone is trying to make sure everyone thinks they don’t. 
Oh, you have a point there, i forgot about these “details”
(i erased SL from my memory in denial)
Dats sad

An objectively wrong opinion, on the internet, whaaaaaaa!?!?
Bury this silly perspective, professions =/= class, end of story.
Can you dish out screaming dps, defend your allies with enduring tenacity, or restore their vitality through engineering? No, not in any meaningful capacity, ie as the narrative player character.
With that out of the way. I think there’s plenty of narrative space for a tech class. They’ve recently developed a lot of game tech to support the fantasy of a Tinker or Mechanic, customizing their summons/constructs.
Upcoming plot seems ripe for it!
Idk, just seems like such a no brainer/easy win.
We’ll see what’s to come!!!

I would prefer blizzard to work on class reskins rather than new classes at this point. All the proposed classes are usually very specific things that already overlap with another class or profession. The only thing I think warrants a new class at this point is something void themed as it’s entirely represented by one spec right now but it’s not really necessary either.

Tbh the Drachtyr war power was severely underutilized in the plot. For a story that was meant to be an entire war for dragonkind, there wasn’t really much battle feats to note of other than Fyrakk burning things and Raszageth. Most of the Drachtyr story was also more of a daddy issues plot rather than showing them off.
The idea to add a dragon-type race to the game was great. (I would have been all over a robust female dragonoid like the one on Hearthstone’s Evasive Drakonid card.)
It was the execution that was awful.
One of the many, many missteps of dracthyr. And, yes, another is making them look lizards with wings instead of dragons.
I have never understood the thinking behind the choices of the allied races. It just seems so… lazy AND convoluted AND inconsistent.
Actually, I think the evoker class is quite unique and clever.
So this thread is actually a bid for a warden class?
Personally, I would rather see tinker. Or necromancer, if they figure out how to do it without decimating warlock or death knight.

High elves for the Alliance! (Hill

My understanding is we don’t have ogres because they are too big. And, as someone who had to deal with Lunk in the Searing Gorge, I totally get it 
.
However, it is my theory that a significant portion of people making the decisions at Blizzard these days are not fans of WoW, it’s just a job to get thru so they don’t care about the foundation of the game, what makes sense in context or being respectful of iconic characters.
Class reskins is the only intelligent way to implement all races/all classes.
So I doubt they will go that route.
Already exists
We need another monk class
Most people do not want Earthen more than they want other races. You are the one gaslighting. You’re a troll.

Who am I gaslighting big dawg? I just said I like Earthen
Interesting, because I see a few other words besides “I like Earthen” Brosky.
No more classes PLEASE! Evoker sucks, too. I wish I can be a dragon and not be restricted to a single garbage class. Also, instead of all these garbage reskins as allied races, it would be cool to get fully fledged races like Dracthyr, Worgen, Pandaren, etc.

Did you actually read the entire exchange?
You’re a dragon? I thought you were a winged skink.
None of these would actually be popular. What the majority of players seems to want are pretty or cute humanoid races. That is why elves are popular. https://wowanalytica.com/statistics
For years people asked for “beefy humans”. We have beefy humans since BfA, and they are barely played. Stuff like ogres and vrykuls would not see much play, and nagas would largely appeal to the same audience that fundamentally likes the idea of dracthyr and probably face the same transmog restrictions.

Yeah they’re showing their hand… playing favorites and not caring what we gotta say. Elves being their favorites, humans second, dwarves third… they don’t care about the rest of us it seems as it’s like almost every patch or every other patch elves are getting stuff they don’t need. They forced us to deal with Shadowlands and DF being tainted with focus on the NE because of one of their crazed former employees forcing the act of burning down the tree… it’s getting kinda old. If they can stop spoiling the elves, humans, and dwarves and instead give more love to the rest of us that’d be great and that may even come with one of the high requested classes becoming a thing. Sadly…however it won’t happen as it sounds like Midnight will be another elf focused expansion. Honestly elves are getting to be as boring as humans at this rate with all the elf content they’re force feeding us lately. I get they’re a fantasy race but they’re not the only race in the game. I mean they’re denying something like trolls getting beards for more elf stuff and dwarves we don’t need
Sounds awful. Dracthyr at least brought something new in being like dragons and adding some actually dang nice options to the dire situation of mail armor. If you want to play a Warden, which’d have plate armor (of which we have. 3 other classes already wearing) just play a rogue or, by your description, Demon Hunter. Wardens wouldn’t do any of that, they wouldn’t get Blink because mages have that, and all the chain stuff hasn’t been done by any ingame Warden so dunno why you want that
The fanbase’s favourite has been elves for decades now, meanwhile more monstrous or weird options don’t get rolled
Dwarves aren’t their favourite but earthern have been a ‘yeah that’d be okay’ choice for decades now and given hoow often they show up as NPCs (Seriously, Uldaman is a dungeon this season, y’know) they’re easy from that side
