Sadly looking like Tinkers could become a reality.

[Triceron]

There's an abundance of Titan technology there so my idea is they re-purpose it to the fight the Undead seeing as you can't resurrect them.

A Titan tech class would be pretty cool. So much better than a Gnome/Goblin tech class.

[Pebrocks The Warlock]

But what about Forsaken Tinkers, like the one on the Island Expedition with Gazlowe?

What do you mean? A Forsaken can pilot/use the Technology. Anyone can use it if trained. I'm saying if mechs and robots are destroyed the Undead have no way of using it like they do with bodies.

[kaminaris]

They wouldn't fit in a nature-themed expansion. Or a death-themed one. Or an expansion based on the elemental lords gathering together against Azeroth. They wouldn't fit as a class added in Wrath instead of the death knight, or in Mists of Pandaria in place of the monk.

Yes it will fit any expansion, simply because mechs were present as secondary theme all the time from vanilla till now.
About time we get it.

[Guildenstern]

Tinker fits any expansion.

Lol @ this guy

Unless they use golemancy and re-animate the mechs :P

That'd be pretty cool actually. Scrap metal 'Undead' Mechs!

A Tech race between the Undead, Horde, and Alliance to see who can make the better mechs.
New Class: Technomancer

Chances for this filthy class dropped to almost zero. Dark Ranger or Dragonsworn are more probable. Thank you blazing heavens!

[Lex Icon]

apparently fighting fire with fire is the only option against any and all threats in WoW.

By that logic alone any class could fit any expansion. And expansion classes so far have been shown to fit the expansion's main theme, not the secondary, tertiary or even quaternary theme?

Which, by the way, is the case of technology. At best, it's been a tertiary theme. And considering the latest findings, dubious as they may be, all point to something involving death, means tinkers are unlikely. Highly so, in my opinion.

[Selah]

Looking less and less like Tinkers... but maybe Blizz will surprise us with two classes? Not likely, but you never know.

[Teriz]

So we got the Bolvar leak now.

How do Tinkers fit in? Anyone hazard a guess?

"Ghostbuster" Tinkers.

In all seriousness, that Bolvar pic isn't confirmed to be from 9.0.

What, you think it's from Hearthstone then? Or a second Heroes announcement?

Or maybe it's like Old Soldier but with Bolvar?

[Kumorii]

Death theme with Bolvar + Sylvanas as focus heightens the chances for Dark Rangers.

[threads]

about a 99% chance we are getting dark ranger or necromancers

[cocomen2]

Sadly looking Tinkers, could become a reality.

[Teriz]

Possibly from 8.3, since there are encrypted cinematics within the PTR.

[kaminaris]

And there we have it boys, tinker confirmed:
