will blizz ever let undead be druids?

[astroglide]

Or move to an any race for class polocy like with dks.. i hate trolls and tauren but i love druids. I think turning into a skeliton kitty would be fun

[destia]

Uhh.. why would they? It makes no lore sense at all.. nor any game sense

[Resentful]

You know, probably and make something about the lore

An example would be tauren paladins have powers... from the sun or something I don't know anymore

They can twist there lore all they want to make things work

Nor does tauren palaldins

This idea completely vomits on the lore and any sort of sense. While i share your enthusiasm for skeleton kitties, there is 0 logic behind it.

Blizzard butchers their own lore. Most of the class/race combos no longer make sense, and I also assume within the next few years it will get even worse.

Even saying that, unless they open ALL race/class combos, undead druids will probably be last on the list.

Stupid idea, might as well have tauren rogues.

Tauren paladins , twist of LORE

Blizzard completely justified Tauren Priests and Paladins. You just have to stop thinking about them as being exactly the same as human and dwarf paladins.

And I thought the idea of Tauren Paladins was the stupidest class / race combination ever, I stand corrected.

Please, god, no,

Not really, Tauren Paladin's makes some sense, drawing upon the light of the sun. Like lore stated many times before, a lot of races are worshipping the same gods but under different names. They could rename all the spells to solar related spells but that's a big change so they didn't. An Undead who isn't alive anymore, who has no connection to nature, makes no sense and can't be twisted.

gnome or goblin druids. who can change into a fast racing car, a huge truck or a lasershooting robot and an airplane.
that would be truly awesome. *g*

[Gaudaloht]

Yet here we are, faced with a kind of mad and undreamt of omnipotence.

oh well no, sory but no not going to happen, even paladin undead makes more sence then tauren pali

[Alvito]

Only once they let all races become all classes. While I can see ppl saying that Undead should be able to be all classes based on the fact all races can die and rise as undead. Sadly this isn't going to happen.

The rotting forest has given them rotting druid powers so therefor they are COOL DRUIDS NOW!

There I just made the most amazing lore ever

Twisted

what about tauren rogues that sounds sensible?

[Nooble]

Sunwalkers are NOT the same thing as paladins in the sense of why they exist. But due to class limitations, they mimic the moves of a paladin. The same thing applies for draenei IIRC.

Basically, these tauren are extreme sun worshippers, they don't actually command the holy light like humans and dwarves.

Also most undead are humans and elves (I want to say more like high elf/blood elf, correct me if I'm wrong) so therefore in their former lives, they weren't druids either.

Go look up sunwalker in wowpedia, I can't post it yet due to low post count, but yeah.

Tauren paladins , twist of LORE

That they twisted the lore SOME WAY is no excuse to twist the lore REALLY BIG TIME (as in Undead druid/paladins or draenai warlocks).
Remember this is also supposed to be a RPG, and undead and classes which get their forces from LIFE don't fit together. There might be some
twisting-around to make Tauren Paladins so they now exist. But Undeath and Life are opposites!

Where's the problem? In REAL fantasy rpg's every possible class is open to every race. Because, you know, in a "real" world that's not bound by comic beliefs, everyone can do everything, even if it isn't optimal. No one is restricted to any job, so to speak, because he is born as race x. What kids learn these days from shitty thought through lore could, from the right angle, be seen as kind of racist. So what exactly is the problem with Forsaken Druids? In a world full of ridicoulus magic, everything is possible. Good magic is like quantum physics really. You can't even imagine what is really possible. Go away with your cookie cutter playmobil magic.

It isn't a bad idea. Being a druid or a paladin is lore wise more like being a Christian or a Muslim. Everybody who worships nature (or like tauren mother earth) is a druid and everybody who worships the light (or like tauren the sun) is a paladin.
