The most popular real-life class has finally come to the fantasy world of Azeroth! Available to all races, the Tinker Leaker provides an exciting connection to the history of the definite future of the game itself. Tinker Leakers are a pure support class that can choose between two ranged specializations: Near-Term Guarantee and Distant Assurance.
As a Tinker Leaker, you’ll follow the other players in your group and buff their spirits with tales of a well-known and interesting activity that is almost certainly on the horizon. You’ll heal your allies with promises, and when each encounter ends, your name and appearance will change so that the next round of authentic predictions you cast will increase in persuasiveness.
Tinkers are fine. Tying Tinkers to Dragons is a different story. And yes, there are lore connections in some cases, but not something Blizzard would do.
COMMENTARY; the secret dragon island we’ve never discovered and whatever is on there is super threatening even more so than the God of Death trying to Slurpy up our planets soul is silly
I’d much rather get a light invasion expansion or Northern Lordaeron expansion fighting scourge lords
To be fair, ANYTHING more than the god of literal Death is silly… there’s just nowhere you can go from there, especially when the “god of Death” is the literal next step up from space Satan (Sargeras) and his endless Legion of immortal Demons.
The biggest take away from the April fools day joke seems to be bard…
I feel we’re straying dangerously into DC territory with that established narrative, for reference for anyone who has never read DC comics with an 80+ year publication history:
They introduced the gods of mythology like Zeus, Hades, Athena etc along with many other culture’s pantheons of deities and have the characters interact with them like Marvel does and occasionally beat them in battle. The problem with this for both DC and Marvel (and now recently DBZ with Super) is that to hold an audience’s interest DC/Marvel have for years had to introduce characters more powerful than actual deities and god entities, to the point that both now have characters who are confirmed writer inserts acting as the creators themselves.
