They made a whole race unable to tank or melee dps. The singular class this race can be is called the ‘perfect soldier’ and can use all dragonflight’s powers. Yet has 2 measly specs.
So where’s the rest? We all know it. Black/Bronze for tank spec. Red/Blue for melee dps spec. C’mon Activision, if you don’t, I promise you evoker will become a “Too bad it was just this” discussion several months or years from now.
Get on it.
red blue for melee spec wat??
blue dragonflight is the master of magic
Lol it already has.
Black and Bronze for tank.
Black and Red for melee dps.
Also, how about giving proper care to other spec’s first. There are classes with 4 spec’s and some off them are awefull for years already 
Black and Red/green more fitting with the self heals and mitigations already in the game, actually it just would need a few Black spells to further harden your scales, like Obsidian Bulwark, and some taunt/weakening-roaras (roaras already in the black category) or earth-based spells to herd the mobs, like the landslide, just not root, but like goearfiend’s grasp, the earth itself grabs them and pull togehter, or grab their ankles
Bronze is not really “tanky” in my humble oppinion
They kind of are. They have decent enough damage, and are able to support team mates to a degree, or literally fly them out of harms way. That’s my vision of a perfect soldier.
Having said that, a Dracthyr tank would be pretty neato.
But bronze can timeloop the damage into mitigation.
It would be an unique way to create an evoker tank, since it littarly doesn’t have any armor equipped.
Black with obsidian bulwark etc would just be Ironfur from Guardian druids but the scaled version, kinda lame.
Awfull is a big boys word, i have seen alot of non meta specs perform well tbh like Affliction for example, or Arms war, or Arcane mage even most people cant play them good tbh
True.
I played Arms myself entire SL.
I just want to be a dragon tank 
Yes, a melee battlemage that throws magic in your face point black or infuses magic into their weapons. It’s a pretty common fantasy theme.
I mean when the youtubers make video’s like “The lost potential of evokers” where they comment of what is vs what should have been. We’re not there yet.
Read above about battlemagi. And red is already represented in the two existing specs, blue only in 1 and blue is distinctly magic power. Damage.
And this isn’t about other specs, druid gets by fine, even if guardian and balance are omega-boring atm. It’s about the absurdity that is evoker having two specs while also forcing the new race into this half-baked class.
I could personally design the whole spec myself if I knew Activision would read it. I would focus it on mitigation through earthen barriers, and warding foes off by radiating searing heat, while using time magic to undo damage done, delay damage and debilitate enemies.
They also need ‘body 5 and body 6’ let’s be honest, with broad shoulders, big arms and legs and enough ooomph to their physique to sell the brutal melee business.
Theyve explicity made a point to say although evoker is currently the only class avaliable it may not be the case later.
Theyre just gonna add more classes to the races
It would certainly be a nice diversion, but honestly I don’t need it. Me as someone who only plays as a tank, I was a bit disappointed that the new race can’t be tank. Of course, they may add other classes for this race in the future like warrior, but it’s not the same at all. Because I can play a tank warrior for a long time. And yet Evoker seems to really fit the role with his black dragon magic.
Black dragon magic being in the base class tree and Devastation kinda makes me think that they won’t bother adding a third spec. When they first announced it and revealed the two specs that use red/blue and bronze/green it only made sense that at some point they would introduce a third black/earth tank spec. But now we have the likes of Obsidian Scales, a talent that would have most likely been exclusive to such a spec.
They can always chop and change things at some point to accommodate any future specialisations but I’m not getting my hopes up. It will probably remain another 2 spec class like DH, unfortunately.
