If I don’t have a druid class for High Elves I don’t want them in the game then :joy:

Support all classes being expanded out to all races then. Then we can all have druids.

They’ve added like 2 whole races since the promise, 1 had a class exclusive to it and it was exclusive to the class, after breaking it open the race still doesnt have all classes and pretty sure evoker is still dracthyr only and would never even canonically make sense on another race

The other is earthen and they too on release did not have the full range of classes available.

I dont think there is anything to support at this point, honestly. There is writing on the wall and its written in plain English.

Paladin, shaman, and druid will probably be the next classes added to all races.
It must be a long process to imagine the racial aesthetics of the paladin mount, the shaman totems, and the druid forms for each race.

They said they wanted to write up story for it, probably in response to how people reacted to the classes of Rogue, Mage, Warlock and Priest becoming all races. Several races got rather mundane “human” style versions of those classes and they had to go back due to players being rightfully annoyed by that to update the npcs to make their classes fit their cultures.

Learning from that Blizzard seems intent to make the All classes all races concept fit better as they move forwards.

Paladin for instance was already in the pipeline. Thats the whole Tyr questline, but they’ve suddenly gone nowhere with it at about the same time they realized that people would be a little annoyed at a human centric paladin order for all races.

I think the writing on the wall is this.

Blizzard want to do it but weren’t willing to put in the time to make each culture stand out. When Players got mad about it they changed their plans to a slower more drawn out build up to adding classes for all races.

Even the Earthen have the beginnings of their druidic order if you’re paying attention.

Void Elves even have a paladin already set up. They’re moving things into place so they can do it all right.

I understand that for existing races, but then why add races without that lore present to justify all classes from the get go?

In all other situations I would’ve agreed with the idea of they’re probably just writing up a way to justify it but then I also wouldn’t expect them to again, make evoker which only makes sense on Dracthyr, because its all dragon aspect magic, or introduce 2 whole races since the promise of all races all classes that do not have that justification built into their introduction, or when they get a class expansion (dracthyr) its still not all of them.

Possible, but that only answers why we havn’t seen it in the old existing races and leaves my question of why are Earthen and Dracthyr were introduced and expanded without all classes available and how they are ever going to justify evoker for any non draconic playable race.

I feel like as long as those specific answers aren’t answered to me, especially evoker for non draconic race, I will always default to assuming that they decided it was not a smart idea storywise.

I wouldn’t get too hyped about seeing paladins for void elves just cause one npc had some light spells, you’ll end up as disappointed as people who want paladin on nelf since legion.

Well they wrote themselves into a bit of a corner with Dracthyr by going with the gimmick that they could be Evokers and no one else could. Which I don’t want to say was entirely bad. Its not an easy concept that they were trying to pull off and Dracthyr were probably one of the better ways to “give us dragon characters” they could have done without being stupid or ridiculous.

Earthen have an issue in baseline with Death Knights (as do Dracthyr) because Blizzard once again stupidly wrote themselves into a corner with the Lich King being gone entirely. So they functionally have two classes that would never be able to be propagated. Thats just Blizzard trying to do something shiney and dramatic without thinking of their consequences.

Add to that that they got Metzen who has a long view story progression mindset and it makes sense that they’d be giving more time before expanding out such things.

Imagine if they did give Earthen all classes. Then later added classes to the other races. Earthen players wouldn’t get to be part of that if they already have everything. So its plausible that they held back some despite them having obvious setup for it. (Druids for instance) That way when they are ready to add every race to a specific class they can still include their newer races some.

Also there is clearly some conflict within Blizzard on it. Some members of staff don’t want to do it quickly and others seem to want to just do it.

I think what we’ve got going on is a corporate push and pull mixed with finally getting someone who understands story progression and buildup. I think that ultimately Blizzard wants to add all classes to all races but they want to do it correctly and that will take time.

Evoker, Death Knight and Demon Hunter all need a major event to open them up. Druid, Shaman and Paladin all need assets and proper cultural story for each disparate race. Its not an easy thing to do right nor is it one that WoW’s general patch cycle update system is really good at getting done.

I want to comment on this bit because honestly I don’t think you’re far off exactly you’re just pulling it to an extreme of “they wont do it”. Both things can be true. They can want to do it and it can be not great to just do it storywise.

I think they’re taking their time with everyone even newer races because fundamentally how they added them and how they operate its better this way as they expand things properly.

Its more that she has specific lore explaining her power to a degree. The Eclipse is also very similar to other concepts between light and void we’ve heard in the past. Naaru for instance straddling that line between them. Twilight magic as well. Everything for Void Elf Paladins is there.

Though to your point so is Night Elf, Gnome, Kul’tiran and worgen paladins. All of them have the same levels of buildup and no class yet.

There are new night elf paladins in Hearthstone, they use light magic.

I really can not wait for the midnight expansion. I hope it will be sooner than 2026 blizzcon.

He’s not telling you to flag it, he’s saying that you can flag it if the OP keeps bumping it. That’s all, so calm that nerd rage.

Second, he’s right. This thread is being bumped by the same few people who can’t seem to understand that the belfs and the velfs have eliminated any chance of helfs.

World of Elf-Craft…

you waited 15 days to tell me that ? only one raging is you “mate”

There’s also the option that I just saw what you wrote 15 days ago today. You got a brain, yes? Use it once in awhile.

Now now calm down with the rage :slight_smile:
