Oh, I am ALL over the idea of a Tauren rogue. That is just too hilarious not to try.But I'm still holding out for Gnome druids with vicious chibi forms. :D
night elf and nightborne paladins pls
Tauren and Draenei rouge make more sense than Worgen rouges do. In fact, anything makes more sense than Worgen do.
while cool for gameplay, i hope they give actual lore reasonings behind all thisits the least they can do for their MMO"RP"Gas for many of these races, it just aint culturally appropriate to do so. Rogues? fine and good, Mages? also fine and dandy.But what about the Priest class fantasy even fits with the rest of them? something that is inherently Light tied? Tied to reverence in greater beings?Gnome and Mechagnome have 0 reason to be Priests when it is against their entire lore and outlook on life to do soNo, not every race should be Druids or Paladins, stop that. this is not DnD or FFXIV where everyone can be everything Just Because You Find It NeatI get Blizz more or less cherrypicks lore, especially pre-established stuff now-a-days but they're literally going back on their word when explaining why Dracthyr will only be Evokers and vice versa. It's a can of worms that once opened, people will only want moreThis is a copout so their numbers decline will slow or maybe eventually backpedal, and thats finejust give story for it! thats all some of us ask for
still no undead and night elf pally Sadge
This is progress!I think they should just go full "rip the bandaid off" mode... and find a good lore reason to have ALL races be able to play all classes.For the most part... other than adding the animations and spell effects (which granted is a good amount of work... but it is after all a new expac)... it could be done. (if I can't have player and guild housing... at least give me this!)Goblin druids - just have the goblins use their tech to transform.Every race should be able to be a demon hunter... just add some lore at a trainer or something that indicated since we all went thru the trials of Legion that the other races have all been gifted the able to learn "being a demon hunter"Same for Paladins... I am sure there is a way to lore-spin or retcon a way to get that done.To be honest I am not sure why the Dracthyr can't be all races... we walk around in our normal "visage" form as a Goblin, Orc or Human... and then transform into the Dracthyr form during battle. I admit this one may need to wait until later in the xpac once we have all saved the Dragon Isles.. and this "reward" is given from the Dragon aspects for all our help saving their homeland... etc.Selfishly I mainly just want my Goblin Druid, Monk and Paladin... and mega dreaming a Goblin Demon Hunter... but I thought I would ask for it all.In the end... it's 10.0 why not?Peace!
Woot! This gives me so much joy!
There's a Gnome Paladin in Hearthstone called Commander Rhyssa. So I shall continue to hold out hope on the Pally/Droid/Shammy dreams :p
Just give classes like Druid and Paladin existing forms and mounts in the meantime. Open it up for all for 10.0. If an Orc and a Kul Tiran is interested in the Light or a Mechagnome and a Blood Elf are interested in nature and druids let them be.There doesn't have to be some huge lore reason. The world is open.
But how do you sneak with hooves?
Night Elf Paladin When!
At least this opens up the possibility of future race/class combinations down the line. I want to play my druid more often but I don't like the Tauren race nor do I want to change to a Troll. I thought Vulpera would make an excellent choice as they're already an animal race. I would personally love a Goblin Druid as 90% of all my existing characters are Goblins.
