So, what will the cloth wearing Hero class be?

A thought occurred to me. We have a Plate Hero class (Death Knight) a Leather Hero Class (Demon Hunter) and now a Mail Hero Class (Evoker)

Curious if we’ll get a cloth wearing Hero class and what it might be.

Maybe some type of dps that’s also a healer, like all of the dps they do turns into heals and spreads it over the group, like a little life stealing machine that people would love for M+. Sounds like something Blizzard would do lol

Yeah i know, but i meant like literally sucking life out of the boss and distributing it, as opposed to the way normal damage is generated? A healer that could truly just function as a dps in a group.

yeah im dumb but isn’t that what disc does with the antoment thing?

I think you described Discipline Priests.

If they can do about normal level healing while doing full dps-level damage, that would negate the role of healers entirely.

You’re literally describing my class/spec, just with more damage lol

No more classes. They cannot balance this game. Adding more classes but keeping on like 4 devs for all of them is showing why the game is failing imo

Yeah definitely, i didn’t say it was a good idea, it just seems like something Blizzard would do lol

Like how they stole stuff from warlocks when they added DH, being similar to a preexisting spec or class wouldn’t necessarily prevent it from happening, they’ll just steal it or copy it lol

This is a really good question.

My answer and hope is that it will be Necromancer. Ah, one can dream.

I don’t think I will ever truly understand the sheer love Necromancers seem to get.

What do they do? I never play other Blizzard games.

It’ll be the Allomancer.

We finally get a Light-based caster DPS, but depending on spec/talent choices. They also dip in to Fel, Death, Nature, Arcane, etc.

Basically Unholy DKs but in caster form with Demolock levels of mass pet summoning if you spec that way.

Far as I know, summon undead. Spread disease. Manipulate death magic. All the things Death Knights do but apparently better.

I said Hero class which by Blizzard’s definition starts at a higher level. Monks start at level 1 like the other non Hero Classes.

Part of the problem is the OG classes cast a wide net.

Demon Hunters, Necromancers and Death Knights were partially represented by the Warlock kit. Which…would be why warlocks keep getting a watered down identity. Sorry, lads.

Classes like Sorcerers(resses) and Spirit Walkers (Tauren only) were Warcraft 3 units too but they had abilities already covered by mages and shamans.
