    You're a slobbering imbecile if you think they'll ever add tinkers as a class. What's next, hm? Firelords? Pit Lords? Alchemists? All of those are neutral heroes in Warcraft III, too!

    Stop deluding yourself and cope for something more realistically impossible, like playable ogres.

    Professions are the same as classes now? When did that happen?

    We have faction leaders and races that are Tinkers. We also have an unexplored landmass (Undermine) where the Tinker's Union exists.

    On the other hand, we have no one of any note that is a Bard, and we have no known location where Bards supposedly hail from.

    There is literally two questlines in the game with bards now.

    There are 3 different versions running right now. And again the part of the playerbase that is primarily interested in vanilla isnt going to play Cata...you can argue they arent even playing wrath which is why they are still developing Vanilla. We'll just have to see what the scope of that is when they announce at Blizzcon

    Clearly, they are teasing Bards!
    Also Jaina, Thrall. Warcraft 3 characters? Both in the Alliance/Horde capital city or the area surrounding.

    Might be reading into this a bit too much but if the next one is let's say Muradin or Malfurion or somesuch (Assuming they are alternating between Horde-Alliance) I am going to lean towards a true return to the old world for 11.0

    The hints and coincidences are all there for a revamp expansion I just dont think anyone actually wants to get their hopes up for it.

    I dunno why you'd do that when WC3 characters appear all the time in expansions not located in EK/Kalimdor.

    Which means nothing. Classes are based on warcraft hero characters and giving the players playable versions of those heroes, not random questlines.

    Arthas/Lich King >> Death Knights
    Chen Stormstout >> Monks
    Illidan Stormrage >> Demon Hunters
    Alexstraza/Kalecgos/Nozdormu/etc. >> Evokers
    Gazlowe/Mekkatorque >> Tinkers

    ????? >> Bards

    Hence the problem.

    Christ almighty.

    Can't even jokingly mention bards anymore without the tinker brigade marching in.

    That doesn't support Teriz' point, thus it isn't real. You know the drill.

    Getting hopes up might not be a good idea I think. It's fun to speculate though \o/

    Main reason this sort of gets my attention is the amount of updated models datamined over the past months or even year, and they seem to be focusing on two very key characters from Warcraft 3 specifically for these Blizzcon Promo music videos so far, which is what they are. It's true that characters from WC3 appear a lot in places that's not EK/Kalimdor, I do however think this is quite on the nose a focus on "home" from these videos.


    That being said it is probably just generic music promos, but a man can dream

    The ETC is a parody of a heavy metal band full of Blizzard employees. I'm not even sure he actually exists in the lore, because he's never participated in any major event in the history of the game.

    It's weird that you're going with Gazlowe for a Tinker and not the super obvious layup of Mekkatorque.

    Also ETC exists.

    Jk you edited Mekkatorque before I could respond lmao

    The dragons/evoker connection is pretty weak at least in the sense of getting "playable versions of those heroes". It's really not the same fantasy at all. Imo Evokers are proof new classes don't need to be rooted in the old RTS heroes.

    ETC has as much "Lore" as Chen had before MoP

    Bard is an iconic staple fantasy classes. Tinker, not necessarily.

    He's spent hundreds of pages trying to deny ETC exists. Instead I'd just press him that the aspects are emphatically not Evokers.

    Because it's a profession, not a form of combat. A tinker builds the mech, he doesn't necessarily drive it. Some people just happen to do both.

    Everywhere. The Answer is they're from everywhere.

    Blizzard thinks they're sly making an entire instrument animation but using an extremely old instrument model. That won't throw me off their spoony scent.
