Sounds dumb. Gnomes and goblins are the least played races on their factions. That means players don't really like those themes.
If they do a tech based class it should have racial themes for each race that can be it, rather than just the goofy gnome/goblin stuff.
The Vindicaar is not a naaru ship.
i would be ok with tinkers only being gnome and goblin. be good to see more gnomes and goblins running around.
but, if any other races get it too, it should only be orc and dwarf.
blood elves don't look right as tinkers, and draenei artificers just ain't the same thing.
for tinkers i'd want
Alliance: Human Gnome Dwarf Draenei
Horde: Blood Elf, Undead, Goblin and maybe orc
There's no chance in hell that Blizzard is going to do racial themes for a class. The Tinker concept - as requested in countless threads and reinforced by Blizzard - is a Gnome/Goblin fantasy... the end. Can other races utilize technology? Yes. Are they on the same levels as Gnomes and Goblins? No. Jesus... the Gnomes and Goblins derive their abilities from Mimiron himself (and, by extension, Norgannon). The other races don't compare.
Snorlax is right on this one. Goblins and Gnomes are sadly a very small percent of the playerbase, so they'd have to put some other popular ones (Humans, Elves, etc) to make up for it.
Good morning speculators! How are we this fine morning?
So has the new Tides of Vengeance website picture been debunked yet?
