We need void based classes in the game

For all the years of lore about the Void and how important it is we still only one have sub spec (shadow priest) instead of actual void based classes.

I know I am not the only one that would like to see either a fourth subspec option for classes being introduced or entire new classes that use the Void as its power base. I would love to see a Void Paladin or a Void caster or a Void pet hunter class or sub spec.

I know Midnight is coming and with it hopefully we see some actual Void based classes to play. There is an entire race of people in the Void Elves who have…one sub spec to actually use the Void in the game.

It’s kind of like saying why aren’t there more Mountain Lions and Grizzly Bears doped up on Coke serving in the US Army?

What is shadow priest exactly?

Hey now, that’s an unfair question for OP. The Devs couldn’t even answer it.

We have Void Elves.

ide settle for a void cosmetic for pallys the way green fire was for warlocks. i feel like there missing out on alot of class fantasy and cosmetics that can be done by doing it like this. that being said i would love it if we could get a real void based spec since shadow priest is void themed but shadow damage.

because why not friend if friend shaped? we would lose people every couple of seconds. you would have people see someone get mauled right infront of them and walk over to try and pet the coked up bear.

Void Elves aren’t a class.

They’re just void soaked high elves.

I was kinda hoping they would go all in with Dark Ranger for Marksman hunter and make it all voidy, too.

We need a melee voidy spec though, like this gal:

That’s true of a lot of classes. Paladins are just Light soaked Humans, Elves, etc.

Well… forgot who I was talking to… have a good one lol.

New classes? I hope not.

A skin for Paladin abilities to be Void Knights? Yes, please and thank you.

That’s part of the issue. Shadow priest is still a priest, and much of their utility is still light focused.

It’s like if a boss was meant to be a big buff guy but they used the succubus animation rig. Sure with enough work it might almost be passable, but it’s still using the wrong base for what it’s trying to be.

Why don’t we have that!?

#smother the void.

I have a warrior Void Elf (who actually looks like a Void Elf); my head-canon for her is she’s some sort of Champion of the Old Gods. I mean if I could just have an option to toggle a void flair to her weapon animations… that would be great.

turn elemental into a Void Tank. We need more tank classes; having a casting tank can really connect some us back into tanking. Slap some Void into it.

Necro voidbard tonkers confirmed.

Ride appon your void construct playing a dirge so mournful it raises the dead and animates robots with void

Would rather see an offensive light caster.

We need the Tol’vir as a playable race. After all, they lived with N’zoth for how many centuries? Perfect for a void-based race.

I thought about this before and I think this could mostly be solved with cosmetic glyphs. Ret pally could get purple spells for example.
