Can we have please Nightbourne as paladins in Dragonflight? They already can be priests, that means they using holy power, so why they cant be paladins too? Lore means nothing in this game already.

Its basically the same reason why forsaken cant be paladins since day one of wow but could be priests… they are shadow priests in lore but in game mechanics allows them to specc the other ones aswell.
Edit: Nvm… you said nightbourne but i was thinking it was about Void elfs for some reason. NB is more about their culture tho i think rather then about them using holy magic same as NE and i also think NE will be getting palas first… or at the same time.
But they adding Tauren rogues in same time. I think words such as “lore” and “culture reasons” have no sense in wow now.

Yes i like nightborne, they are fascinating elves. Would realy like that.
The thing is, Ppl are meme’ing about Tauren Rogue since vanilla (the real vanilla)…
I don’t think alot of ppl care about Nightborne…
(Imo it’s a scuffed race cuz terrible racials? And blue/purple? xD)
I’d rather not see it because there’s nothing to justify it lorewise
Even less then nelf paladins and even that one is a stretch

I dont care about racials. like 90% i d i o t s that roll orcs for burst and anti cc.
NB worked with BE in Suramar. There are plenty of NB in Kelthalas too. Why they cant use their knowledge and become paladins too? Lore already thrashed down with trans’tyr and taurens mages\rogues, paladins with red eyes and etc. So why NB cant be paladins?
Ridicilous lore wise. Hope they’ll never get to be paladins

It does, if u cut lore from game then u only get bad ugly copy of FF.
Pls dont ruin this game with retarded ideas ang kid NY wishes. Paladins as class are unrightfuly given to anybody oudside Humans and Dwarves.
but its already given to Draenei and Taurel, lol. About what lore u talking about? We have blood elf paladins with red eyes and pale skin lol. Lore already a thrash, NB paladins wont destroy it more.
Remember trans’tyr right?
Draenei have deep connection with the light, especially lightforged draenei. Tauren sunwalkers have bonds with the light through their worship of the sun. Blood Elves bent the light to it’s will by torturing a Naaru but bettered their ways later on.
Nightbourne have literally nothing, nothing that justifies them becoming paladins. They were trapped behind an arcane shield for 10.000 years, relying heavily on a moonwell and arcane magic for survival.
Nightbourne paladins?
Ridicilous idea imo
What he said…
Tauren paladin is the same nonsense as NB paladin or blood elf paladin with red eyes and etc. its all the same sht.
But this game is already killed its lore, so who cares? NB trawel across all Azeroth and there are plenty of them in Kael’Thalas, also they worked with BE while assaulting the Nighthold so i dont see any reason why they CANT learn light magic in addition to arcane.
Your arguments are invalid because devs dont care about lore wise things anymore.
Well, I care.
We can agree upon that some in game aesthetics are bs, like Belf Paladins with red eyes and IMO Dark Iron Dwarf Paladins.
Nightborne Paladins are a far, far fetch compared to any other race that can roll as paladins atm.
The lore for each playable paladin race gives us a good sence and reason why those races can call upon the light to wield in battle.
The Nightborne call heavily upon the arcane for survival.
They are masters in wielding it and their culture main theme is heavily arcane woven.
Nightborne paladins?
Nope.
yeah just because a certain customization is possible doesn’t mean it’s regarded canon
the darkfallen skin (pale/red eyes) is a dark ranger customization thing like how blue eyes/non purple skin/nonpurple hair for void elf is actually a high elf customization.
You will not find a darkfallen paladin anywhere in the actual lore, that’s just players going for the rule of cool
Sunwalkers are also pretty dope lorewise and imo the arguement ‘it’s already broken lets burn the remains’ is never a good one

I can see one way to add nightborne paladins. But it would be a lot bigger commitment for Blizz than just that. And that would be racial class skins. To open up gameplay of classes to new races, but with appropriate flavour.
So for Nightborne, instead of holy paladin, they could be the nightborne arcane knights. Would still play like a paladin, but their abilities would have arcane flavour. Could use this to open up Demon Hunters (or Evokers down the line) to more races and it could also work with shamans.
Do I think blizz will do this? Probably not, too much work. But I think it would be the best way to do so while keeping flavour of both classes and races intact.
I would like this.
But yeah i couldnt see blizzard doing it. If the race you chose actually had aesthetical impact on your class also i think itd rly make things immersive.
I.e a nightborne warrior compared to a gnome warrior. Same skills but different aesthetics.
I also asked for something back during SLs alpha. About how cool would it be if there was some sorta covenant challange that you could do alike green fire for warlocks which changed your weapon effects and things to adapt to the covenant of choice
