Hey guys!
I`ve always wanted to be a mechanognome, but i really really really cant decide which class would fit them, also their little tmog problem makes it even harder. |
Maybe you`ve seen some cool-looking ones running around and you can share your expirience? Though, i can pick normal gnome too, but class question still kills me.
Thank you and sorry for the stupid question to pick for me
Note: any role
When I tried to level a Mechagnome (spoiler: it didn’t last very long) I chose warlock. Don’t know, but to me it made sense and wearing robes deals with this problem:
At least partially.
It looked pretty cool, but I’m not a gnome type I guess.
Edit; can’t find the screenshot anymore, sorry. 
If its female make a priest .if its male make a hunter
You are getting old starney
Hunter would be my choice. Beast mastery in particular so you can get yourself 2 mechanical pets to make your theme cohesive. There’s also a reasonable amount of mechanical looking guns and bows these days. Especially with the implementation of the newest patch.
I quickly created a character just for this. 
And yeah, with a hunter you can wear some shaman transmog if you want to hide their “problem”. 
I wish we could use mechagnomes hair/beards on regular gnomes…
Well, Gnomes used to be the BiS race for alliance casters back when Expansive mind still gave us an intellect boost, that´s why many of the ones you see still running around are warlocks, priests and mages.
With current racials , we get a 1% haste boost from “nimble fingers”, and our “escape artist” racial is primarily useful in PvP, but also has occasional PvE uses (For ex dispelling roots on Tindral and Ansurek, just to name 2 recent bosses), and “Expansive Mind” bow gives 5% additional max resource (mana, runic power, Focus, etc…)
Mechagnomes on the other hand have their baked in mirror images which are IME mostly useless outside of singleplayer /open world PvE content, and get a 1% crit buff.
However, they also have, on a 2 minute internal CD, “Emergency failsafe”… dropping below 20% health instantly heals them for 15% of max health
More importantly, they have “Combat analysis”, a stacking mainstat buff (10 stacks max) that decays out of combat.
The last 2 are what makes them overall arguably one of the strongest alliance races for raiding as well as perma-chainpulling in M+ where you aren´t exiting combat every minute or 2.
So, the question is also “what exactly do you want to do, and do you care about min-maxing”… i.e. what are your plans for the toon. If you just want to bomb around in the open world, HUnter or warlock, if you wanna be a farmers plow create a fury and equip 2x armageddon (Pullhorse not included)…
For ex my Mecha is a rogue called Canopanah, because she exists purely for the purpose of opening lockboxes and transporting fireworks fron my Bank to the AH in december 
You can make them whatever you want, but I’ll say that if you want to hide the mechanical parts with a robe then just play a regular gnome. I don’t see a reason to play mechagnome if you don’t like the design.
Well, it hard to explain. I want to push keys/raid with that toon.
Maybe regular gnome-fury should work, otherwise would`ve made hunter, but i have this one maxxed out
If only blizz addressed the problem with mechanognome tmogs. I mean, if you could make 1 hand mechanical and other one normal - that would be a huuuuuge win for that race
As I said, it’s the hair and beard options of mechagnomes that are vastly superior in terms of design and graphical quality. I’m very sensitive to details, so something as little as this is a deal breaker for me.
But I know, I’m overly complicated.
Lock and hunter. I had a lot of fun with the basic mgnome pet.
hey star. long time no see you!
Hey Tesla! Nice to see you again!
