Itâs dumb that they cannot be warlocks. Kul Tiras has been one of the worldâs greatest and most influential trade nations for 2.700 years, Blizzard could have easily justified them by saying that some strangers estabilished a secret school of Fel in the kingdom. The same goes for Kul Tiran Paladins.
In fact, many races can be warlocks. Obviously races like Tauren, Draenei, or Night Elves will never be warlocks as their very backstory and culture is incompatible with being a warlock, but Humans have nothing against the use of Fel. Varian Wrynn even recognized the value that Warlocks provide to Stormwind.
Would have been even cooler if Kultiran warlocks would have been able to control and summon constructs instead of demons. I mean the same abilities and all but just different animations and models. But that would have actually been too much work for current Blizzard.
Both Kul Tiran Paladins and Kul Tiran Warlocks would make a lot of sense, especially the former with the title âInquisitorâ and the whole restoration of the Order of Embers dedicated to fighting Undead and witches. And, huh, I donât know, Kul Tiras trading with Light-affiliated Human nations for 2.700 years.
Sadly I think Paladin and Warlock were cut to give us Kul Tiran Druids and Shamans, which are also very cool. After all, we donât want Kul Tirans to have so many races, or those who play other races might realize that their favourite race is not the perfect race.
Unless you are going to allow a race to be every single class, there have to be some limitations. Someone is always going to be unhappy they canât be x race.
Especially if they canât be x class for no valid reason. Because donât tell me that Kul Tiran Paladins donât make sense when we have Tauren Paladins who were asspulled in Cataclysm.
Correct me if Iâm wrong but Iâm pretty sure Janinaâs dad was a Paladin in Warcraft 3, I believe he was one of the random paladins chosen when you played outside the campaign
Any race that can be mage should be capable of being warlocks too.
And for the argument that Warlocks are hated by factions/races because itâs an affront to their beliefs need to understand that
There are in fact only 2-3 playable races that have any sliver of respect for warlocks, which is Blood Elves, Dark Iron and maybe goblins. Orcs shun them, Human shun them, gnomes, dwarves⌠Pretty much everyone shun them because they utilize questionable powers.
The player character is an oddball/prodigy, while we might not be as powerful as major lore characters, we are still a force to be reckoned with. Someone who is not bound by the same rules and restrictions npc and minor story characters have.
Nothing should prevent the player character from having sought the powers and skills most commonly found in another faction/race.
Unless there is a strong, valid lore reason to object em being X class, there should be no limitation, especially a MMORPG, where things constantly change and evolve, look at orc mages, for example.
