Would you like current Class/Race combos? and why?

[Mirishka]

Vanilla is Vanilla. But unfortunately we still don’t know what exactly Classic is or will be. So who knows what Blizzard will do...

Except J. Allen Brack specifically used the term 'vanilla' when announcing it.

[Echocho]

I'm all for it, options are always good. Though I'd be interested to know how they'd plan to solve the priest racials.

I never really understood why humans couldn't be hunters until cata

Hi.
i dont have a strong opinion on the subject.
Though i expect 90% negative answers, i'd like to hear your thoughts on it.


Would you like to see the current Class/Race combinations in Classic?
(and why do you think it would be good/bad to have/not have them)

Humans: Hunter.
Dwarves: Shaman, Warlock, Mage.
Gnomes: Hunter, Priest.
Nightelves: Mage.
Orcs: Mage.
Trolls: Druid, Warlock.
Tauren: Paladin, Priest.
Undead: Hunter.

Appart from Tauren Paladins, and maybe Nightelf Mages, the rest of the combinations did exist since vanilla, but they were just not playable.
Either way, it's all or nothing, since you cant give the Alliance Shamans, and no Paladins to the Horde.

Uhm, no thanks? If you are going classic, should stay so. Especially the seperated Alliance Paladin vs. Horde Shaman.

[In Ogres We Trust]

No... no... no. In this case, vanilla means vanilla.

We do kinda know what it's going to be... They have said that they want to keep Classic as close to Vanilla as possible (incl. all the "rough edges"), so it's not going to be a rework or whatever and thus these class combinations are not going to happen.

you are correct. 90% no.


Holy Cows should have never happened in the first place.

[Shammyrock]

I'd rather they stopped shaman/paladin loot dropping for the wrong faction

that only existed for a month in vanilla. when 2.0 went live. thats it.

[Chaelexi]

Logic 101:

If we get vanilla delivered at all, then it will NOT have any extras.
OR
If there are extras - then by definition we aren't getting Vanilla delivered.

We do know what classic IS ...

Once you add choc chips to vanilla icecream - it isn't vanilla icecream any more.

They have never stated you are getting Vanilla........so get that through your thick skull......It has always been a "a Vanilla like Experience"...... On that note you will not see horde Pali's or alliance shaman.

No... no... no. In this case, vanilla means vanilla.

Hmm they have always said Vanilla like Experience so where do you get that you are getting a straight up vanilla server.

There's absolutely no reason why they couldn't. But we have no idea what they are going to do. Vanilla and Classic are two different products.

except they have literally used the words vanilla and classic interchangeably. so that would mean that vanilla = classic.

[Candy Cough]

Not going to play vanilla but kinda hope not. Rooting for faction restricted classes.

[Soon-TM]

I wouldn't mind new race/class combos in Classic, as long as lore supports them. E.g. Human Hunters could stay (Nesingwary's human pals in STV come to mind), while NE mages or Dwarf shamans would be ruled out (the reasons for the introduction of either belong clearly to Cataclysm storyline). Still, it would be far too much trouble for very little gain imho.

Nein. I would not.

That's the most absurd thing i've read on mmo-c this past weeks. If you're not playing it... why would you hope or root for anything related to it?

[ablib]

Implementing current class/race combo's, into Vanilla/Classic, not only would make it no longer Vanilla, it's such a large change that there is no way in hell it would happen.

They MAY introduce quality of life changes (I doubt it), but they definitely wouldn't change the core game for this.

[Nomads]

you are correct. 90% no.


Holy Cows should have never happened in the first place.

They needed at least 2 races to be able to be Paladins... BEs were a given, but which other Horde race fit better than Tauren? Maybe Undead? I mean they make as much sense as UD priests.

Absolutely not. If Classic is changed in a single way, these servers becomes pointless.

[Mendzia]

No changes.

[Battlebeard]

Vanilla is Vanilla. But unfortunately we still don’t know what exactly Classic is or will be. So who knows what Blizzard will do...

I don't trust Blizzard They have given in to complains etc before, I fear we have "modern vanilla servers" with the motivation: It's basically vanilla, but better or some BS
