That would mean completely spitting and stomping on both Demon Hunter and Night Elf lore.
And you totally missed the real intention of my post. The reason those two races cannot be rogues is because they have hooves instead of feet, and they don't use anything on their hooves. Hooves are not made to walk silently.a: You speak as if Blizzard won't or can't add new race combos.
Because a Demon Hunter is just like a Paladin, a Priest that decided to take up arms and fight in the front lines. You cannot argue Demon Hunters and Warlocks are the same thing while accepting Priests and Paladins are their own separate classes. It's almost hypocrisy. Priests and Paladins share the whole of protective Holy magic, the same with shadow magic for Warlocks and Demon Hunters.The answer is simple...because such a take would again undermine the argument that Demon Hunters and Warlocks are somehow (in gameplay terms) "different". A Demon Hunter who focussed his training on spells? Who worked by summoning demons, controlling them and unleashing them directly against his foes? A Warlock. A warlock by another name, but still a Warlock. He might be uncommon, but it would be possible.
Again. But it won't be a Demon Hunter. It'll be a Warlock. Not Demon Hunter, but a Warlock.Yes. And the Demon Hunter will be a spec of that class. He'll have everything that comes with Warlocks, access to everything Blizzard took from DHs and gave to Warlocks. And he'll have access to his own spec lore as well, his own abilities as well.
Except we have Paladins and Priests, and their existence is proof that making a Demon Hunter separate from Warlocks is possible.Yep. He'd be a Warlock. Just as a Shadow priests is still a Priest. Or a Brewmaster is still a Monk.
Except we're not talking 'how the class system works', we're talking class identity. If Priests and Paladins can exist separate from each other, then so can Warlocks and Demon Hunters.That implies a startling ignorance of how the class system works on your part.
They are both practitioners of the Light, are embodiments of faith and are the defenders of the Light.Yes. I can. Because it takes much more than a shared school of magic to make two classes the same. Paladins and Priest don't share that much.
Wrong. Warlocks and Demon Hunters are just as different as Priests and Paladins. Your argument bases on your idea that DH is nothing but a spec to be added to the Warlock class. I defend that because we have Paladins and Priests in game, it's perfectly possible and viable to make DHs their own class.Warlocks and Demon Hunters do. Now, if you're talking lore....yes, DHs and Warlock are different. Just as Fury Warriors and Arms Warriors are different. Just as Holy and Shadow Priests are different. Just as Brewmasters and Mistwalkers are different.
And they'd be wrong. Go read on both Justice and Revenge, again. Besides, even the Horde has laws. After all, they have a Warchief.They'd be right. You're mixing confusing Justice with Law.
"Justice on their terms" is not justice. It's simply revenge, plain and simple. Calling it 'justice' is just something they use to rationalize their actions and, in their minds, escape punishment for their actions.And venegance is part and parcel of that. If I wrong you, you'll take me to court to seek justice. Others? Others would simply seek me out and seek justice on their own terms. They'd seek vengeance. Personal retribution for the wrong done to them. Justice on their terms, not the laws.
