When are we getting Ogres?

[rcshaggy]

Would love to have Ogres playable and would be nice if we had a few Ogre tribes in the Horde, and took over Dire Maul.

I think the tribes of Ogres we could have are;
Stonemaul; The main tribe.
Dunemaul;
Warmaul;
Bloodmaul;
Ravagemaul;

CLASSES;
Warrior, Monk, Hunter, Rogue, Death Knight, Mage, Shaman, Warlock, and Priest.

RACIALS;
Might of the Empire; A powerful battleshout to make the enemy flee. Kinda like a powerful Howl of Terror for crowd control. Active Ability.
Howl of Terror like, but more for getting the Ogre's enemies in control and can take a advantage from it. Kinda like a anger ability.

Giant Hunger; Well fed tribute and gets a little bonus from eating large amounts of food. Passive Ability.
Works like the [Epicurean]

Fire Resistance; Resistance to fire damage. Passive Ability.
They have been known to live in very hot climates, such as mounds which are hot caverns, mountains themselves and so forth.

Beast Mastery; Gets to have slightly companionship with their pets and good for classes with pets. Passive Ability.
Good for pets in which Ogres have Hunters, Mages, Warlocks. Raises the stats a little bit.

Gronn Ancestry; Less fell damage, and less damage taking damage. Good for not taking hits for a bit. Not too overpowered, if people gang up on you. Passive Ability.
Not really that useful if you have more mobs on you, but handy for one or two enemies on you. You can use the Might of the Gronn to get them off you and then use the chance to kill off the mobs, and then go from there.

MOUNT;
Clefthoof

HOME CITY;
Dire Maul

Edited;
Some of the racials and added Monk to the class list for Ogres.

So basically they get better racials than everything else in the game by far?

Yeah that sounds like it would ever happen.

[Skul]

I would love Ogre. Would seriously change all of my toons and even leave my raid guild if I had to as a current alliance. Orc and Ogre are as different as Dwarf and Gnome.

why would you play a fat pink orc

The game needs more substance, not more races or classes. Let's say we have enough of all those and let's see Blizz make an engrossing game again.

[Williamgood]

Ogres won't fit through doors... however rexxar's race (half orc/half ogre?) would be more interesting.

[Quincey]

wish people would just get Ogre this idea.

[Chickat]

Orcs and ogres look about as much alike as humans and gnomes.....

[Golden Yak]

yeah seriously, its been ogre a decade!

wish people would just get Ogre this idea.

These puns are un-bear-able.

...

I would roll an ogre day 1 of their release. But odds are low we'll get them.

[Friendlyimmolation]

I have both names shrek and ogreload saved on my realm just in case.

[Arrashi]

No, they would be just fine shitting in the streets of Orgrimmar, it might make the place smell better. A reclaimed Dire Maul belongs to the Night Elves and no one else, especially not vermin Horde.

Ogre mah dead bodeh lass. What are you doin in mah maul ?

[Deleted]

Look at a standard Orge. Look at a doorway
Count the doorways in the game.

You ain't getting an Orge.

New Ogre racial, smash puny doorway.

[Zervek]

Just what we need, an even bigger race to roam around on clefthoofs blocking everything.

We aren't getting ogres, ever.

You should work at blizzard. You sound like someone who'd nerf fun all the time.

Thanks for the replies so far; I found this obviously fake image, but I just think it would be really quite cool.

haha i made that picture thanks!

Does Varian have the resources to come in and Carry the effort to reclaim dire maul though? Recent night elf track record makes me think they would have a hard time beating an army of peons.

haha i made that picture thanks!

Did you? well how about that, good image!

To those saying we its unimaginative, well I suppose it is in respect that they are not new - they have been in the warcraft universe from the start - the reason we should have them!

[DeadmanWalking]

We NEED ogre characters!!!! Wait... what? Monkey people? We NEED Hozen characters! Wait... over there... Cat people?! We need Saberon characters!!! OMG bird people? WE NEEDS ARAKOA characters!!! Oh sweet! Fish people! We need Jin-yu characters!!! Wait.... mer snake people? We need NAGA people!!!



SQUIRREL!!!!

[Forgettable]

I'm already ogre the fact that they'll never be playable.

[FertsBlert]

Next expansion "The Ogre Homeland" will come with playable Ogres for both Horde AND Alliance.
