Would you play Tinker if it was Gnome/Goblin only?

Thank you for clarifying. I get people on here talking like it’s definite. It’s no more definite than Dark Rangers or Necromancers (two of the other most asked for classes.)

Yeah definitely not. Call it a shot in the dark I took after seeing Mechagon =)

I would prefer a dwarf tinker buuuuut, yeah sure why not. The gnome heritage armor is kind of perfect for a tinker.

I would play a goblin tinker if I was on the Horde, but my main and high level alts are all alliance right now, so that’s where my profession support network is. So unless I’m motivated to move to horde, no, probably wouldn’t play one with those restrictions since I don’t like gnomes.

Of course!

I already have one Goblin and two Gnome characters. Wouldn’t hurt to add another to the alt collection.

I’d support it…if they actually gave lore as to why it had to be like this.

All us DH’s have is an apparent racial prejudice by Illidan. which doesn’t even make sense. We are the most EEO crew out there.

Naga? Sure you can roll with us.
6 armed demons? Hell yeah we could always use the extra hands lol.

So a nice consistent lore as to why and this would be cool. I like oddball setups so it be nice to have reason to go goblin. I mean the only cool thing they have imo is their dance. Based on a kick butt song about all those single ladies and putting rings on a finger iirc. Not enough reason for me to 1-120 them lol.

Oh, definitely. Gnome in a Mekatorque Mecha. FUN TIMES TO BE HAD.

Is the tinker a real class? I thought that was a fake leak, no? If not, I’d bet my money that blizzard makes it so OP that it’s going to be literally all anyone plays until it gets nerfed. Gotta have that psychological manipulation via FoTM classes ya know. It’s what all the “cool” game dev companies are doing these days.

You can quote me when it happens

I mean every class that’s joined every expansion has been oppressively overpowered on release, and is still currently S-Tier. Monk, DH, DK.

Gnome no, Goblin yes.

I won’t be playing it even if it won’t be goblin or gnome only. I have zero interest in it personally.

Goblins are my favorite race in the game, so sure.

Howeveeeeeeeeeeer…

I’m not a fan of having new classes/hero classes be locked behind races. I didn’t like it with Demon Hunters being exclusive to elves and I wouldn’t like it if it happened again. Race restrictions “for lore purposes” will always be read as “cost-cutting measure” to me.

So sayeth the Holy Beef.

Still waiting on you guys to get Rogues, it’s even supported in your lore…

I am indeed a sacred cow. If I’m being totally frank, I think all class/race restrictions ought to be removed. If you think hard enough, you can justify any race and class combination and come up with justification for it. New lore is always being added.

Nope. Not at all. Full stop no. And no some more.

I would if alliance got a goblin allied race.

I definitely would play a Goblin and or Gnome if we got a Tinker class even if it was only available to those two races.

Yes, and i would love to have that class added.

I’ve played the same main for 15 years so new classes are never a big draw for me, personally.

Tinker being race-locked like that would probably be the only way I’d ever make a gnome alt though, or a junkergnome if those wind up unfortunately being a thing.

Tinker doesn’t sound like a fun class regardless of the races available to it. The stuff on Mechagon is more annoying to obtain than providing any usefulness in the game. This has completely turned me off of any type of Tinker Class.

Yes, I would even though I don’t really care for gnome or goblin…
