More specs instead since new classes would encroach on old ones a lot. Hunter could easily have a tinker spec.
Honestly at this point Iâd almost rather see âBardâ as a form of tradeskill or something instead, like engineers. Build your instruments, sell songs, etc.
At least there isnât people like in Ffxiv sitting in cities playing some tunes like dragon force on their instruments or whatever. Begone with all that noise.
Where exactly is this a magic Bard?
Like cool one dwarven singer.
You know you can turn down the music right? Itâs under performance in the options. Most of the people playing tunes arenât actually playing anywaysâŠthey just use a computer program to play songs on the in-game instrumentsâŠIâm not sure whyâŠat that point I would just listen to actual music, but thatâs just me.
I wouldnât use it anyways because I donât play Ffxiv anymore.
Necromancer could be a single spec class that plays a lot like demo, but raises the dead. It could also be a 4th warlock spec that also uses shadow bolt as the filler.
Nah, current classes/specs donât get enough attention as it is.
someone already replied. Get owned.
No new classes until the current ones are finished.
For new Classes youâd really want a Class that provides a play-style (and preferably more than two specs) that make it stand out from those we already have.
Thatâs why I donât think Necromancer would work as theyâd just be a DK in cloth armour.
A Tinker sounds cool, but really only works for me as a Spec (maybe for Warrior).
And Iâm not sure how a Bard would work as anything but a Support Spec (maybe a Rogue).

All classes that have been added to WoW after launch were for marketing reasons.
Not gameplay.
Bards, but theyâre a healing/support SoD thingumy for Rogues.
I said magic bard for a reason. He doesnât have any magic beyond frostbolt, a mage spellâŠ
He just sings. Thereâs a few people that sing in WoW, that doesnât mean they have Mage hand, Sleep, Charm, Enthrall, Dominate person, Irresistible dance, etc.
Get owned
Yes⊠get owned⊠still not a magic bard. His wiki page is also like a couple sentences. Bards are very much irrelevant in the WoW universe.
In contrast, the tinkers are literally faction leaders, raid bosses, or other important lore figures:

There have also been MULTIPLE Hearthstone expansions about tinkers.

There are so many versions of tinkers in WoW, it could easily have 5 specs⊠but, limiting it to 3:
- Gazlowe style dps. Summons turrets, uses lasers and bombs.
- Mekkatorque style tank. Pilots mechs; like D.Va from OW.
- Putricide style support or healer. Throws potions to allies and foes. Has a Heal-Bot pet.
Considering bliz seems pretty sold on aug, I would not be shocked at all about a bard, but tbh could care less about the class. I just think the idea of a supp spec is coming with more classes if they add any.
A lot of what your wanting is similar to what I would like to see as well.

Very similar to what I was envisioning as well.
I have provided a more detailed example hereâŠ
Here is the direction I would start with when exploring the Tinker class. With some workshopping spell and ability ideas. Tinker Class Ideas Armor Type: Cloth Mastery: Engineering (Same mastery for all specs) Mechanic (Melee Tank) Robotics - Increased duration Technician (Ranged DPS) Cybernetics - Increased damage multiplier Chemist (Healer/Enhancer) Mutations - Increase positive percent gain and reduce negative percent loss OR Mastery: Engineering (Same mastery for all specs) âŠ
No more classes. Thereâs already enough complaints about tuning for every spec that already exists. If you want to be a bard, play hunter and sing to yourself as you shoot mobs.
bard
Ugh, at least come up with something less lame.
What we do need though is Vulpera and Kulâtiran Customisation.
Fixed that for you
Congratulations on finding a normal tavern-singing bard?
Has nothing to do with the type of bard being requested here though.
