What Race/Class combos do you hope never come to TurtleWoW?

[Shroudedsoul]

Based on a Lore perspective.

[Geojak]

Tauren paladin
I makes no sense at all to me.

[Gantulga]

We already have a race and class combos that make no sense.

[Lasershadow]

Tauren Rogue. Too big to be a sneak thief.
Tuaren Mage. Tauren Warlock. Tauren ain't arcane magic folk.
Night Elf Mage. Night Elf Warlock. Arcane magic is banned in Night Elf culture.
Goblin Priest. "Wut?" That was my retail reaction. Nope.
Forsaken Paladin. Yeah... no that is as lore breaking as Goblin Priest.
Bunch of other ones too like a lot of races nope to being Druid and Shaman (esp. Alliance Shamans and Horde Paladins).

[Javik]

Troll druid (venoxis)

[Whalemilk]

I think all the races have the correct classes available to them. No need to add more.

I can get behind human hunter and troll warlock, but there isn’t anything after that really makes sense. Anyone that wants Tauren priests, undead paladins, dwarf shamans, etc. are probably the ones that pushed convenience which resulted in retail.

[Pyrdacor]

I don't need any further Race-Class-Combos ecxept the allmighty Gnome Paladin.

[Falerian]

I'd say whenever the human hunter and troll warlocks come in, we *probably* won't get anymore class/race combos that are able to fit into the world of Azeroth...but I'll still stand by night elf mages being totally plausible, even if I am admittingly biased as my RP character on Retail was one. There's enchanting trainers in Teldrassil for a start, and the explanation of Highborne magi makes sense to me, but I respect if they do never get added.

There is also the perfectly valid explanation that exceptions exist within any race and it's hardly a big deal for a character to go against the values of their race, ie orcish warlocks definitely clashing with the shamanistic traditions of their people and how this led to interesting story development, but then I'm still unable to apply this to concepts like draenei/nelf warlocks as we're getting in retail.

I could see it but only if it came with a different starting area, to drive the point that mages are unwelcome in kaldorei society

[Imonobor]

I'm not here to argue in favor of Undead Paladins or Dwarf Shamans (plenty of other threads to do that), but I'll just say that I'd love to have them.
Aside from that, no other combination really makes sense to me, I think the current combinations are near perfect.

[Camanchaca]

But goblin medics are a thing, and there are no healing classes for goblins at present.

[Getplucked]

And Gnome Druid, which can have Kitty Form, Cub Form, Sapling Form and Pidgeon Form

Rouge doesnt mean 'sneak thief' and Im still annoyed WoW-isms carried that same dumb sentiment into D&D. Half-Orc Rogues using 2H clubs to beat you to death is perfectly normal in D&D rulesets, adding the only race that cant be Rogues atm wouldnt kill the vibe.

Night Elf magic ban was a lore written piece on the fact they knew arcane magic to begin with thus it'd be fine they recreated them but you like, started in Human zone and had Teldrassil rep at Unfriendly to start.

Dwarf Shamans has never been a weird idea literally due to the Wildhammer clan.

Troll Druids tied to the loa worship; Zandalari had people transforming in Vanilla, Amani in TBC, and Drakkari in Wrath. It wasnt weird that someone thus taught the Darkspear in Cata.

[Darbo]

Female night elf druid. Oh wait.

[Sylveria]

Undead and Tauren Paladins, actually already HolySpec of Undead Priests doesn't make much sense, but for game mechanic balances they're allowed.
Night Elf Mages, for before mentioned reasons: Arcane Magix is banned from Night Elf culture and society.. those who rebelled against that ban, were exiled. The Quel'dorei, High Elves.

[Reploidrocsa]

Maybe it's because i come from the might&magic universe, but tauren mage doesn't sound weird to me. I used to see some chaos alligned minotaur sorcerers, which were very similar to a fire/arcane mage.

[Ishilu]

Are Goblin shamans a thing in turtle? I found those worse than dwarven shamans in retail.

Not a huge fan of orc mages and zombie hunters, either, but that boat has sailed.

Orc Mages were just a theme of 'well they just learned it' and they already had orcs using the elements and fel magic, so couldnt be that hard to just teach them arcane as well.

Everything being a Hunter is fine because Warrior/Rogue lack ranged specs thus the Marksmen aspect falls solely on, well, the Marksman tree; pet theme just happens to be attached, and thats usually what people have issue with. Lotta people want a lone wolf talent because of it.

Mostly thematics in WoW's case. WC3 tauren's only sign of magic was the Spirit Walker and they were only spirit-healer themed, but got bastardized into Shaman with like 6 other units. Tauren Druid and Shaman were both balancing acts from the dev team more than anything.

Gnome Druids would have mecha-versions of the druid animals forms. Maybe including Transformers transforming sound bit for shifting. =P

I am just picturing a Tauren Rogue carrying Destiny 2handed Sword while making Arnold Schwarzenegger noises. =P

While I like Night Elves to have more classes as personal bias. It's still lore breaking for Nelfs to be mages. That's what Helfs are for.

Dwarf Shamans has never been a weird idea literally due to the Wildhammer clan.

I don't know anything about the lore for Dwarf Shamans. Still looks like Goblin Priest lorebreaking.

Troll Druids tied to the loa worship; Zandalari had people transforming in Vanilla, Amani in TBC, and Drakkari in Wrath. It wasnt weird that someone thus taught the Darkspear in Cata.

Meh. I ain't got anything against Troll Druids. My bias against lore, I'd want them too.
