Zandalari & Kul Tiran Allied Race Update

Community General Discussion
1
We’ve discovered two errors in our original communications regarding which classes would be available to the Kul Tiran and Zandalari Allied Races. We’re in the process of updating those communications now, but wanted to call your attention to two important corrections:

  • Warlock was incorrectly listed as an available option for Zandalari at the What’s Next panel at BlizzCon. The Zandalari have no connection to fel magic, and will not be able to be Warlocks.
  • Mage was incorrectly omitted as an available option for Kul Tirans in the panel and on the World of Warcraft website. While Kul Tiran Mages are relatively uncommon, there are a few prominent examples, and so Kul Tiran characters will be allowed to play as Mage.

    • We apologize for the confusion that these errors have caused.

    Seems like some people spent a little too much time at the mage table, amirite?
    Those manabuns.

    aw but Zandalari had something called demoniac on wowikki, that sounds like a cross between warlock and demon hunter

    oh well...

    Well, here comes the rage....

    Thanks a lot Ythisens!.

    I was hoping Zandalari would be Warlocks instead of monks given that many warlocks seem to be interested after the initial announcement , also the fact that demoniacs were a thing in lore while Zandalari were enemies of the monks. I just feel it's weird, but well, it happens

    In the KT front this is a nice win.

    Thanks for the update. It was very jarring thinking the leader of Kul Tiras was a mage but Kul Tirans couldn't play mages.

    Well, I suppose some Zandalari fans might be upset to learn they can't be warlocks, but it's great to have the mage thing fixed. I mean, Kul Tiran's not being mages made zero sense even if Jaina weren't a mage.

    I'm glad Kul Tirans can be Mages but the lore for Zandalari Warlocks has been in the game since Vanilla.

    This wasn't an error in communication. You just realized after the fact that your judgment was a bit lacking and so you changed some things.

    Was the judgment lacking because KT's cant be Paladins?

    There quite literally were multiple sources saying different things. Some said yes, some said no. To BOTH.
