Would be overjoyed with an actual caster dps Paladin spec. I never get to spec dps on 2 healer fights. Blood mage would be great too. All fake I'm sure but great ideas.

TBH I would make due if Holy had some more damage output in their spells. Make Holy shock, Judgements, Holy Wrath pack bigger punches and make one of the seals boost white damage considerably by spellpower or INT. I feel like all healers should be normalized to at least be on par with Disc Priests and Mistweavers when DPSing. Even if it's not a pure DPS spec, it would make things like running scenarios a lot easier.
Next expac Burning legion.......So demon hunters and tinkers could be viable
I mean first time we met wrathion for the legendary quest we can see the greenish fireballs dropping on azeroth.
Now with the last part of legendary ..........
Spoilers inc.....

ever since i played guild wars 2 i kept saying blizzard missed out making engie a profession rather than a class. tinker could be awesome.
Let's say for a moment that these are real. The specs proposed already have some form in the game, so really they're just adding a new way to use the abilities; not creating an entire new spec with all new tools.
Warrior - Dragon Roar; focuses on shouts, maybe gets a new avatar that looks like a draconid.
Mage - Blood; probably one of the few actual new specs.
Rogue - Deadened Nerves; already has everything there, just needs it switched on and arranged.
Druid - Already implemented, and should be used as the basis for what they would do. Guardian got (and still gets) most of the same things it already had when it was lumped in with feral. They added like 2 new buttons and shifted the rest away from other specs. This is what I believe they would do with most other classes.
Shaman - Earth warden; move anything related to the tank aspect to this spec; reimplement (they're in the files/backups) the stuff that was truly for tanking here. No new work, just rework and updates.
Priest - Wand icon?; a ranged dps spec that isn't shadow. Gets the old wand bonuses that used to exist in Discipline? A little flimsy, but eh.
Warlock - Metamorphosis; have your cake and eat it too. Removes the glyph and lets demonologists have their pure DPS role back.
Paladin - icon unknown; Holy DPS? focuses on the DPS aspects of holy shock and its ilk.
Death knight - Necromancy; Pulls the undead control away from the diseases in Unholy so that both can have their niche.
Monk - Crane; ranged DPS probably using things like spinning fire blossom and crackling jade lightning.
Tinker - new class with 4 new specs. From top to bottom, probably Alchemy (healing), Lightning (ranged DPS), Energy burst (tank) and rockets (physical dps)
So, again, if this is to be believed, there are really only 5 truly new specs being built. Maybe 4; I don't really play mage to say that they have the kit for blood somewhere in their other spells.
Just to throw a metaphorical wrench into the gear here (to potentially cause more speculation and discussion).
What if the entire build-up with Wrathion and the Legendary questline is for the Prince of the Black Dragonflight to use the power of the Celestials and his Draconic powers to unlock the "hidden potential" of the classes. Introducing a 4th spec for all classes.
It's a little cliche, but with all that's happening lately with Wrathion and his heavy-heavy-heavy involvement in the actions occurring on Pandaria, it's a possibility that any new specs could be linked to him doing something.
(The warrior Dragon Roar icon lead me down that path of speculation.. I wonder if anyone else had that thought.)
If a fourth class role was ever implemented, it might provide buffs or support, but it would be a big change to the game and is very unlikely to happen.
Taken from new Ghostcrawler interview.
this is probably a great opportunity blizzard has to bring players back (with next xpac) to the game and see subscriptions to ever increase again. If this is going to happen and all classes get additional spec plus a whole new cool class plus tri-spec system plus new roles to classes available, this will bring back a lot of players. this is huge! Imagine tanking warlocks or shaman, imagine healing DKs...simply awesome! Unfortunately this will never happen, it must be a fake but it's an interesting one.

Aye,he said role,which would make more sense if,lets say,this picture isn't fake.
I'm pretty sure Blizzard said something about implenting 4 specs to each class in the game would be very difficult to balance.And a completely new class on top of that aswell? Probably fake but still pretty cool
Let's not have them give classes a fourth spec until they can learn to properly balance the three specs per class we already have.
Just to churn all of this up again...
Has anyone thought about why exactly Blizzard was testing tri-spec? There is no purpose behind tri-spec EXCEPT to add a 4th spec (or role) into the game.
Additionally, Blizzard never outright denied a 4th spec. They just said it would be too much work, or too tough to balance. However, they've said the same thing about things that eventually popped up in the game in the following expansion.
Finally, as much as I enjoy talking about, the Tinker class isn't exactly well known to many WoW fans who would just randomly create something. Usually someone like that would create a Dark Ranger or a Demon Hunter class. The Tinker isn't a hugely popular choice for stuff like this, but it is very well known within Blizzard itself. That does add an air of legitimacy IMO.
Clearly, given the reactions in this thread, if this occurred, people would be VERY excited about the next expansion. Blizzard knows this, which is why I'm not totally convinced that this was completely fake.
