I would really like it if we had brawler class.
A class that fights with bare hands or fist weapons. (Other weapon types can be decorative stat sticks like it’s the case for the monk)
And YES before you guys even say it I know we have the monk as an unarmed fighter but the monk does not fulfil the fantasy I seek.
I’m looking for a tavern brawler. A strong guy that can take a punch and deliver one.
Monk has to many flips and all that magic.
I’m looking for a simple fighter. No magic no acrobatic just fists.
I mean, you can like certain aspects of someone, but dislike other things. Sometimes the good aspects come with the bad aspects that turn you off of someone, like bad aspects come with good aspects that attract you to someone. No one goes out to date someone bad for them, there obviously are things you are attracted to, and those things sometimes come with attachments you don’t necessarily like.
Anyway, this is a similar issue, where Luzy wants an agile melee class, but Monk is elegant and elaborate Kung Fu, which is not the desired fighting style. No flippity flips, no elegant kicks, no magic juju. Just two fists and brutal no-nonsense melee. Just relentlessly pummeling enemies into the ground with brutal attacks, not elegant and choreographed styles.
I can’t think of 2 different playstyles of such a class to justify creating a new class with it, and simultaneously I can’t think of any class it could fit as an extra specialization except maybe Warrior.
Or maybe it could become a 3rd spec for Demon Hunters!
Kinda like a roided out fighter?
Think there lots animations already in game too make it work and it would not even be
close to monk except maybe a few animations,
thou I guess only enough for one spec maybe two.
Look Voidcrazed Hulk and Kobold Taskfinder animations on wowhead.
For example:
Aoe could be smashing both hands to the ground like both those do in the unarmed animation (maybe with a earthquake like effect).
The voidcrazed hulk jump and dragon stomp could be another aoe.
CC could be picking up enemy if small enough and throwing them.
If throwing the enemy into other enemies they all get stunned.
There lots other animations too that could work too.
Sadly wow always been slow adding new classes even thou it usually create lots hype.
Myself I would love too see a witch, banshee and valkyrie class
