I think they should make good on their April fools joke back in 2008. Bring the bard to life!!

Edit Have to get Jack Black as a character to introduce the class. :slight_smile:

Farmers.

Genn said it himself in the Saurfang “Lost Honor” Cinematic.

You’ll be calling up farmers next.

That’s the next Alliance class: Farmer.

I’m still a fan of the Shaman tank concept, but that would be pruning from other specializations, so in the end no bueno :sob:

@OP, if we get any class, I’m sure it would be tinker. It would be cool if they were Melee/Ranged/Tank… Power Armor. Laser Beams. Stun Batons…Exoskeleton Suits would be cool for each specialization…

If they want to do race restriction, it’d be Goblin/Gnome.

I’d rather see Blizz put more work towards making classes play better and add some depth and customization back into classes.

For the last couple expansions classes have been plagued with playstyle homogenization. Every class feels and plays almost exactly the same.

Fix current classes before trying to add new ones would be much healthier for the game.

I hope it’s a tinkerer and it’s all ranged heal/dps/tank.

Necromancer for horde and a Cleric (quite similar to a priest) for Alliance. Be cool to have restrictions once again instead of everyone gets everything.

I’ve seen these in other games they just seem so close to the lock and priest. I could be wrong though and they could be neat additions.

ranged physical spec. l2 read… when was the last time a ranged dps spec was given to a new class? Oh wait… never. Also “ranged” is not a fantasy archetype. Archer and Caster archetypes are vastly different in design, look, feel, and play style and should not be lumped in together. There are so many melee dual wield specs that we need multiple new archer / gunner / throwing axe fantasies to recenter.

97

STILL a RANGED caster.common sense plz.

98

Shaman already fills that spot. Blizzard has even called it the Battlemage of the game. And the Shaman community has pushed for a Earth spell Tanking spec for years now.

I’m the one using common sense here. You can’t see tinkers as being anything beyond a gnome hunter, so no use engaging. Open up your mind a tad. Not even the biggest fan of them but to call that fantasy done with just because we have gnome hunters is pretty nonsensical.

I would pitch for an engineer-like class, I think it’s more than time we get one. (I guess call it tinker or machinist since engineer is taken by a profession.) The class fantasy is about building robots, big guns, flamethrowers, turrets, mechs, etc. Basically you are Mekkatorque in BoD.

Specializations could be Automation (damage), Weaponry (damage) and Medic (healing). Automation is about robots, turrets, mechs, etc. Weaponry is about big guns, flame throwers, electrocution guns, etc.

Medic is Blizzard’s take on the concept of a healer with a minion, similar to the scholar job in FF14. In easy content you just let your minion heal while you DPS and chill. In hard content you’d get a bunch of skills that synergize with your minion, not unlike what warlocks and hunters do for DPS.

“The Gambler”

Every single ability involves an absurd amount of RNG.

No more classes.

To introduce a new class, they would have to take something away from one of the existing classes. My warlock main still loooves DH’s. So much.

Plate: Warrior, Paladin, Death Knights.
Mail: Shaman, Hunter, Tinker
Leather: Monk, Rogue, Druid, Demon Hunter
Cloth: Priest, Mage, Warlock
Mail intelect, hopefully with a tank spec, I mean, you can be really creative with machines and devices, wide range of posible abilities, from healing to tanking…

Also, they should make enhancement into a tank spec and be done with it.

104

why do people think tinker will be a class?

we have monks but im till waiting on samurai
