Tinker class = lame

And have cyborg pets you can collect like hunter pets. But instead of taming things, you kill them and use engineering mats and tinker/necro abilities to bring them back. And instead of worrying about other players killing the rare you’re trying to tame, you just have to hope they can’t skin the rare you’re trying to resurrect…

At least it’s better than Bard.

Stein from Soul Eater could kick some butt, especially wielding Death Scythe.

Mechagon and gnomes would make a tinker class make sense. Entire gnome story says tinker class is a bit past due, but maybe they figured engineering profession was all they needed. Edit: and while tinker may not be a class I get into, I’ll try it. Tons of other classes I never got into either, but wouldn’t deprive other players of those.

Makes me wonder if blizzard will remove engineering profession later, like they removed first aid this expac and have no archaeology sites in shadowlands expac.

its like “bard” tbh who wanna play a bard ?

Yeah I agree.

Tinker, bard, necromancer can just go in the scrap heap.

Tinkering is something your retired grandpa does in his garage to get away from his wife. Not something an adventurer does while saving the world.

What? There are Tinker adventurers and fighters in WoW. Don’t compare a video game to real life.

What if your grandpa is Rick Sanchez?

Tinker stands out from Bard and Necromancer. If there’s going to be a new class, it’s definitely tinker.

Can we also agree that the Bard class idea is just as lame if not arguably worse

You’re right and you should say it

Yes.

Yes, yes, and yes.

Just because your mind isn’t creative enough to think of the possibilities doesn’t mean it’s not a good idea.

Hunters and Rogues would like to have a word with you.

Also, that’s not all they COULD do.

Missiles, turrets, gunplay, a mech suit for tanking, bandage guns, nanobots.

You’re just not a creative sort. Leave this to people that actually have some creative minds.

WUB A LUB A DUB DUB!

I want a ranger. They can take the melee SV with them while they’re at it.

Let me help you. Necromancer.

That was easy.

But just look at all the interesting and unique abilities they bring to the table!

A hero unit from Warcraft 3. Just like every other class.

Blizzard bases its class abilities off of Warcraft 3

That’s why people think tinkers are next.

Yes but Necromancers and Bards weren’t in Warcraft 3.
Tinkers were.

(Actually, there was a single Necromancer unit. But all of its abilities belong to Death Knight)

Any brains between those Horns of yours?

People want Tinkers, with the tinker abilities from Warcraft 3.

The Engineering profession doesn’t give you any of the tinker abilities from WC3.

Can you understand me, or do i need to start drawing pictures?

Yeah, that’s why we already have a class that raises and empowers the dead. It’s called “death knight”

There’s a Hero unit in Warcraft 3. It builds “pocket factories” which are basically turrets. It fires missiles, and it can even tank in a Mech suit.

So that’s what people want tinkers to do.

Hunter doesn’t do any of that.
Hunter is themed around Nature and Archery. One spec has one bomb. That doesn’t make them tinkers.
