Naga as a playable race, What are the chances?

[Combatbutler]

The chances are quite slim, they have no legs after all and blizz might not want to invest the resources into their mount animation.

[Techno-Druid]

The only way I could see it working is if they had a subrace of naga that had legs or something akin to the worgen with a highborne that can transform into a naga. That would negate the mount issue as well as gameplay mechanics like jumping.

I think naga would make a decent neutral race as while naga have been the start of a lot of trouble for both the Horde and Alliance, allies in arms are extremely valuable.

At least for flying mounts they should all hold giant buckets with naga inside of it.

I can already see the goblin bomb with the naga getting dragged along XD

mount animation would be rather easy, haver their tails sorta coil or go to the side the leg issue really isnt that big of a deal

I agree.
It would look kinda weird, but hey, it's phantasy.
The gear also is almost a non-issue. Leg gear would wrap around their tail. Foot gear could be a ring near the tip, with "footless" looks leaving the tip naked. Trolls, tauren and draenei already have most of the foot gear missing.

Playable naga are very possible, just very unlikely.

They're done giving playable races, notice something that WoD did that happened for the first time? No new race to play, were over saturated with classes and races (theyll keep releasing classes for Xpac hype). TBH, we dont need anymore, whats the point? they have no new ideas for racial abilities, not that they really matter anymore.

What they did say, which would nice if they followed through, would be class group buffs coming back. They said were far removed from sunwell, and bringing certain classes should feel good, instead of fotm classes.

Do you enjoy being wrong?

[Chaelexi]

Were going to argus. I can foresee us seeing alot in our travels.

SPOILER ALERT:

Playable Ethereals Next Expansion.

I don't see either, too much redesign on all armor sets to make it viable.

No new race in Wrath as well actually.

......we got deathknights, the pattern was always new race + class combos / followed by a new class / followed by new race and class combos.

This all changed as of WoD

If you honestly think were getting naga you're delusional

LOL ya by just a few seconds to! Was trying to delete my post but was having issues.

Comparing in game model of a naga wearing in game armour to a humourous bit of fan art.

Your ability to discuss and display your side of an argument is not very good.

Cool. You may have meant that and I totally understand that. That's not what you said. You said WoD was the first time to not add a new race. You did not say it was the first time to not add a new race and / or class. You even went on to say they will keep adding new classes.

Don't care if we get naga or not. I pointed out a fact, that's all.
