Credit to Ifelixl to this Idea.
Since we all know this is gonna be the next class. 
We don’t have any class that uses Technology and Machinery as their Theme
We don’t have a class that Really fits Goblins and Gnomes
And Goblins dont have ANY class that can play all 3 roles
We Already have Tinker Assets in game, We already have Tinker abilities in game. We already have Tinker NPCs in game. We even have Tinkers on Exiles Reach to represent the new class.
Everything is in the favor of Tinkers for 10.0
So How about you just confirm it for us blizz~
Give us a Sub-Forum.

Why would this be a class. Roll a goblin/gnome hunter with engineering and bam, you got your joke class.

So… I could Tame Animals?
Use Poison and Animal aspects?
No… That’s a Hunter.
Look at Gazlowe, Or Gelbin Mechatorque. Thermaplug. Razak’s Roughriders.
Are they Hunters?

Tinker is basically the worst name possible for a class, you don’t picture anything good
Every other class gives a good fantasy idea, tinker sounds like a jerk playing with screws
Plus, thats just engineer as a class
I’d rather an actual class instead of profession+

No, they are both joke characters, like this class idea.

Warcraft has never just been fantasy though. It’s been an amalgamation of steampunk/sci-fi and fantasy ever since WCII. Having a class in game to represent that diversity of theme would be pretty neat.

I mean, You could call it whatever you want
Tinkerer, Tactician, Technician, Mechanic, Mech Jokey.
I agree it’s a silly name. But it’s a silly class.
We don’t all wanna be Edgelords.
So do you think Hunters are Tinkers or not?
Tinkers, In Warcraft 3 Rode in mechs, Shot missiles, built pocket factories (which are functionally turrets)
Hunters don’t do those things.
Sooterdey you play a Mage. Right?
Well in Warcraft 3. Mages could: Use Blizzard, Summon Water elementals, Increase Intelligence of nearby allies.
We don’t have a class that uses Tinker abilities from WC3.

When I use fantasy there I don’t mean as the fantasy genre, more of the imagination line
I don’t really picture any kind of brave hero called a Tinker
You’re literately a DH, you couldn’t be edgier

Hunter gives you guns and traps. Engineer gives you bombs and stupid little gadgets. GG, tinker.

High Tinker, Gelbin Mechatorque.
Literally THIS EXPANSION Stood as a blockade against Horde forces.
He literally has Tinker in his name.
Hunter gives me Animals, Trueshot, and Animal Aspects.
Those are abilities from Warcraft 3. But they aren’t for Tinker.
They’re From Orc Beastmaster. And the Night Elf Priestess.
Not from the Tinker.
Engineering doesn’t give me Turrets, Mechs, pocket factories, or Missiles.
So… that’s not a Tinker either.
Do… you actually think about these things before you post? This information is a google search away.

I do 
If the name is a hangup they could always steal Artificer from D&D. They could offer a lot more than just a profession+. Engineering is to Tinkers as Enchanting is to Mages. Different focuses for the same ideas.

Mechs come from mounts. GG
That’s not an ability. That’s a mount silly.
Come on, I expected you to have a better argument than that.
Dude, I hope you brought more to this thread because you’re only embarrassing yourself.

So a class just for gnomes/mechagnomes and shoehorned for goblins?
I mean, sure enchanting is magic, it’s more an offshoot of the actual mage class since they don’t really do any enchanting with their abilities (buffs I guess)
Tinker is making machines and weapons, flat out what engineer already does

bruh you voting for tinkers, I aint the embarrassing one
Goblins were the original Tinkers. Mag’har and Dark Iron Dwarves have proved themselves to be pretty skilled machinists as well. And Demon Hunters show us that Blizzard doesn’t have a problem heavily restricting class/race combos as it is.
It’s a matter of scale, in my opinion. Engineers make toys and trinkets, Tinkers would be making full on weapons of war and employing them with expertise.

Google is a thing that exists.
The Original Tinkers in the Warcraft games were goblins.
Not to mention we’ve seen Tinkers of lots of races across Azeroth.
Orcs, Draenei, Undead, Dwarves. Even freakin blood elves.
Then Why doesn’t Engineering give me any Tinker Abilities from WC3?
Most of it’s gizmos cant even be used in combat.
The one’s that can have 5 minute cooldowns.
You’re the one who Thinks Hunters can Fight in Mech suits and build turrets.

Mounting is a skill, hunters are turrets. GG again. Me 5 you 0
Yep. Clearly You’re playing a class that stacks Intellect.
Well, when you learn how to use google, Maybe you can figure out what a Tinker is.
