Let the Tauren rogues free!
We’re already out there in the wild, we’re just really good at it.

In the case of Tauren rogues, there’s nothing physically stopping it. It’s solely cultural

Gnome druid first.

Yeah I never got why they didn’t include it to begin with. They mess with the lore anyway and at this point half of it doesn’t make sense lol

Undead Paladin exists in lore (granted its well outside the norm). Convince me of something that doesn’t work.
Seems to me Undead are the only stickler, and if we can get away with Priest and Paladin, I’m sure we can get away with Druid too. It’s just shapeshifting. Give them skeletal forms. Whatever.

stay elves but nightborne and void elves getting to be them too perhaps? Although…void and fel both used by one person might be terrifying as far as damage they’d crank out as don’t both powers supposedly corrupt?

I don’t want to see Warlock / Rogue / Demon Hunter Tauren.
I think some class restrictions make sense culturally.
The Kul Tiran Humans have traditions behind their druidism (Same with teh worgen) Stormwind humans (Which are standard humans) do not have roots in druidism, nor ties to it in lore, and from what I understand have not really been intrested in learning from their night elven brethren all this time?
Who wouldnt want to be a gnome kitty lol
Tauren pirates exist already. Grimtotem rogues exist already. And feltotem warlocks exist already. Demon hunter tauren could also be a feltotem thing.

The Zereth stuff makes mechanical predecessar life forms that gnomes/mechagnomes/goblins would probably use. The mechanical versions, literal transformers! If something good can come with the next patch is bio-mechanical life forms being justified for these race/class comboes. In Zereth Vita
Gnome…bunny form.
Anyone who doesn’t want Gnome Druids simply hasn’t thought through the possibilities.
Ayyyy, Worgen Shaman guys. Am I right? Yeah?

Didn’t the Grimtotem tribe join the horde back in legion?, you know the tribe that’s known for basically Rogues?..it be exactly like how Dwarves got Shamans, it was the Wildhammer Clan basically going into the Original race… so technically it would make sense, they did it for Dwarves back in Cataclysm why is it any different from then to in Legion?.. you know if going off Lore that is…
They were already part of the horde, many of them got kicked out but a few stayed in the horde. Many got kicked or went with Magatha Grimtotem since they tried to take Thunderbluff after Cairne died.
Note some of them stayed horde, that’s enough plausibility for some outlaw grimtotem rogues in horde imo. And I have seen some cool grimtotem warlock art, I really wish they were warlocks, they are former shaman art and it’s really cool.
This artist made a former grimtotem shaman into a warlock with cool effects and warlock tauren totems. It would be a very cool thing to have in game imo. That and feltotem would be nice options. Feltotem were former Bloodtotem highmountain (which are now part of the horde) that joined the Legion. But since the rest of the bloodtotem joined the horde any that had soul stones and ressurected would have reason to join back in the horde where there families are.
Feltotem customization would be really cool for highmountain imo. Fel horns, and fel hands, fel eyes, fel hooves etc.
This is a highmountain warlock, literally should have been an option like Nightborne warlocks imo.

I can agree some things would be ridiculous, like gnome demon hunters…but, Night Elf Paladins would be fantastic.
They could be Knights of Elune and just play the same as Paladins in game.
The Feltotem? The off shoot tribe of highmountain tauren that was already a fragment of their own community (Many of which died to the demon blood trying to join the legion) who were all killed by us in legion for supporting the legion?
So a super fraction of a fraction of one tribe of a population of high mountain. Which are just a subspecies of Tauren that live on highmountain.
Compelling… seeing how most if not all of them are dead.
Grimtotems Don’t have warlocks.
There’s a few very low level grimtotem mobs that that rogue like attributes, but they doesn’t make a major guage for a entire rogue class.
Also pirates don’t just have to be outlaw rogues, plenty of them are casters of some sort of just straight warriors.
I don’t want to see the Tauren race with any of these classes, because they would have to twist and stretch and ruin already sparse lore to do so.
You know what’s funny?
IRL every single druid was a human.

Having faction/race/class distinctions adds complexity, variety and flavor to the game.
There are 194 race/class combos. One hundred and ninety-four!!! How overindulged are people these days that 194 options is not enough?
Personally, given how many option there are now, I would like to see the anti-lore/logic ones like night elf mage and undead priest be removed.

Those subsects of society are the classes. A tauren rogue… would be outlaw. Or a scout. I can literally wear leather and duel wield daggers on my highmountain hunter, camo as stealth. And use poison already (just on ranged weapons). A tauren pirate is a rogue, that’s been a thing since vanilla.
LIterally some specs just have one spec to justify a class like void elves and shadow priests. Outlaw would be that spec for many races since it’s a pirate/criminal spec.
They don’t have it in lore, but they would be the tauren tribe brave enough to dabble in those magics as they are devious bunch, the bloodtotem already dabbled in fel, they became the feltotem. The bloodtotem already joined the horde, the feltotem can follow suit.
Like warlocks and demonhunters are basically already an anti-hero class. I don’t see why warlocks from these specific situations can’t rejoin the horde somehow. Since warlocks in general seem evil in most cultures but still help out in the horde/alliance armies anyway.

The Bloodtotem did not, the Highmountain Tauren that joined came from the other tribes (Skyhorn, Rivermane and Highmountain). I can see feltotem trying to rejoin after the downfall of the legion, keep your friends close, enemies closer kind of deal, but just stating that I don’t recall the Bloodtotem ever joining the Horde.
