Yeah, that's not the Warcraft Tinker.
This is the Warcraft Tinker;

And these were the previous expansion classes;

So I'd say its chances are pretty good.

You do realize that the difference is that the abilities from Dark Ranger/Priestess of the Moon/Sea Witch/Blademaster/etc. are in Hunters/Shaman/Warrior/Rogue right?
So is Wildfire Bomb a Hunter bomb, or an engineering bomb?Actually, Engineering does build Tinker's devices:
Turrets? ✓
lasers? ✓
Bombs? ✓
Mechs? ✓
Gravitational devices? ✓
They are mechanically different because one is a Profession and the other a class concept. They do serve the same purpose: Engineering and Alchemy were the only professions to be used in combat.
Is Crimson Vial a Rogue vial, or an alchemy vial?
Is Nimble Brew a Monk brew, or a cooking brew?
Is Mana Gems a Mage gem, or a jewelcrafter gem?
Lore doesn't support it eh?Calling an Engineer a seller and a Tinker a combat unit is just your take on it. Lore doesn't support it. A mage crafting a Goblin Rocket Launcher trinket is the same as your dream of a mech launching a volley of bombs from the sky. You are just unsatisfied with the animation and damage.
https://wow.gamepedia.com/ProfessionA profession is a trade-oriented set of skills that player characters may learn and incrementally advance in order to gather, make, or enhance items that can be used in World of Warcraft gameplay. In essence, professions are 'jobs' characters may have.
Professions really have nothing to do with classes.
Non-magical Explosives are also physical.Technology is as much a physical power as a Hunter. They both do physical damage from afar. Would you call a Hunter physically strong? The mech wouldn't have a need for explosives and other devices if it was, purely, physically strong. I've, already, showed you that Goblin bruisers are stronger than their size would indicate, so your whole imaginative argument for them being weak is irrelevant.
Also you didn't show me anything, just some obscure quote. Feel free to name a Goblin bruiser in lore.
Why? because the Forsaken collaborated, particularly, with the Goblins in Darkshore, that's why. They have more of a connection to them than your Vulpera.
It's truly incredible how you type so much, yet still fail to make your point."Why do you think we have prominent Goblin and Vulpera heroes like Gazlowe and Nisha, an Engineer and a Rogue, respectively." - You're just making it too easy
"Pandaren are a completely different case. Pandaren were oppressed by another race for many years, and they were oppressed because they lacked the physical strength to properly defend themselves. It would make quite a bit of sense that Vulpera would fully embrace Pandaren techniques in order to defend themselves for the future." - You're just serving these on a gold plate
"Whose concepts has been divided up among multiple classes/profession....." (Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Tinker) - a walk in the park
They didn't learn from the source either. The Pandaren Monk trainers and Stormstout himself come from the Wandering Isle, not Pandaria.Because you didn't learn from the source, like they did. Pandaren lived the Mists and August Celestials. Outsiders don't, even, have a clue what they are until they visit Pandaria.
1. yes, we did. With the Pandaren Monk pet. Your argument just confirms that a class isn't fully represented until it is added - which, helps my case.
2. But not frost powers, as can be seen by the lack of frost magic in Death Knights until WotlK - which, again helps my case, as it shows that classes are misrepresented until being fully added into the game.
3. Illidan gained Metamorphosis from the Skull of Gul'dan. If you can pass these kind of abilities to your students, then you can pass banshee powers, as well. claiming Sylvanas hasn't raised or trained anyone in the ways of banshee powers, is again going back to Death Knights not using frost magic until WotLK. You have to wait until the class is added to see full abilities on display.
1. Which is why I said "full-blown Pandaren".
2. Yes even with frost powers. How do you think Kelthuzad became a Lich?
3. And at some point he taught his followers how to do it. We had multiple Illidari who could perform metamorphosis in TBC. To this day in WoW, Sylvanas has yet to produce a Dark Ranger with Banshee abilities. And frankly, she's probably done being a Dark Ranger.
My point still stands; Only Night Elves worship Elune. If the basis of this class is Elune worship, you're going to have to expand the lore or (more likely) acknowledge that the Night Warrior class is a non-starter.Thiernax and Qadarin, from planet Fyzandi.
Zandalari Lun'alai.
Worgen were created by the powers of Elune.
Tauren call her Mu'sha.
I can see Nightborne astromancers and Shadowmoon mag'har orcs worshipping her, as well, due to their connections to the stars.
