Idk, I’d take a Tinker over something as overdone as a ‘bard’.
Throwing bombs sounds a lot more compelling than playing music at someone.

Yes. But Thematically They are different.
They are based off Different heroes from Warcraft 3.
Again.
No class has Tinker abilities.
I’m sorry that’s complicated.
Personally. I don’t think tinkers need much justification. They’ve already been in every expansion
Says the guy saying Tinker can’t exist because it’s “stylistically” similar to Engineer. They can’t even use their Ub3r-Spanners in a dungeon.
Pass me that Arclight spanner so I can smack this brainless orc upside the head.
Runeforging is really similar to enchanting, no?
Aeste. You’re a lovely breath of fresh air.
And I continue to say the same thing about DH. I tolerate pre cata race DK bc they’ve finally been brought in line with other current classes.
Yes. But Thematically They are different.
Then you’ll have no problem with Necromancer.
Again.

I love that you keep ignoring the part where Tinkering invalidates Engineering uniqueness.

Somehow you managed to ignore both of the points I made through ad hominem attacks.

Speaking of ad hominem.
Monks are certainly the least present in their expansion, I think we agree on that at least. Still I could not imagine them being added in any other expansion, and that’s really the point I was getting at. I cannot think of an expansion that would make the addition of tinkers feel not random/forced but I encourage Blizzard to change my mind.
Edit: I thought about making an argument about how Monks are unpopular compared to the other added classes and try to tie that too their lack of “hero class” status in MoP, but it occurs to me that that probably has more to do with balancing, and is entirely to bold a statement to make about something that complicated.
I’d rather Blizzard give us a heap more allied races than a new class. Prefer much more character optimization than we have now.
Necromancers weren’t a hero in Warcraft 3.
But Dks were. They use Necromancy.
Classes do not Invalidate professions and they never have.
Rogues have a healing potion. does that invalidate the uniqueness of Alchemy?
Death Knights can Runeforge. Does that invalidate the uniqueness of Enchanting?
Go to the catacombs if you wanna act like a bone-head.
Personally, I’d much rather have classes. It’s far more engaging for me to learn a new spec or new play style than rehash the same ones I know with a new race.
I’ve already played most of the expansions, I don’t really want to play them again for the sake of a new race.
Imo. Classes are always more attractive than New races.
New classes provide a ton of new content. Because it changes the way you experience content in general.
I’m being serious.
yeah this is big for me. I personally like to PVP more, and new classes always posed a challenge, which was fun.
Of course you’re being serious! You also said that Vehicle quests are as good as classes. and that 5 minute cooldown bombs make you a tinker.
You can be serious all you want. It doesn’t make you right.
New classes always provide me with new ways to play existing roles. So I’m always happy to have them. So long as they belong in the Warcraft universe.
Clearly tinkers belong. Theyre everywhere.
Same goes for you. Youve told me a lot that my opinion (tinker being a stupid idea and a waste of time) is just an opinion. But what about your opinion? Doesn’t mean you’re right.
My opinion is this: Tinkers are cool.
Here’s what ISN’T an opinion:
Tinkers are a Hero in WC3
Tinkers do not conflict with existing classes
Tinkers have representatives in the new starting zone
Tinkers have been constant in World of Warcraft since its inception.
Tinkers have been worked on internally by blizzard.
Now do you see my point?
I dont care what your opinion is. Facts and evidence suggest that Tinkers are likely.
There are ways to make a tinker class without copying engineering… Tinkers don’t have to be about bombs and gimmicks, they can have that aspect but that doesn’t mean it needs to dictate their playstyle.
Tons of other games have elaborated on this. Even World of Warcraft has along with other Blizzard games.
Tinkers could be a tankier ranged DPS that doesn’t rely on pets.
Tinkers could be a new type of tanking relying on mechsuit mechanics.
They could be a healer relying on a similar type of totem mechanic or AOE mechanics…
All of those could compliment engineering in a neat way.
EDIT: Also FWIW I’m not like dying for a tinker class ( I do really want a new class tbh ) but I don’t get why we’re bashing on Tinkers and at the same time pushing for something as dumb as bards.
