Samurai class when?

Just play warrior and transmog your sword into Katana, there are few weapons with that model ingame. Same thing pretty much, Samurais were your regular warrior dudes

Also This, Wow is designed for western market, they tried Pandaria stuff with Chineese culture/old martial arts movies references, and Marital arts Class- Monk, There are many games on the market that have The Anime style characters you looking for, Final fantasy being the big one for example.

Because of Blademasters from Warcraft 3?

Not completely.

If we take Blademasters as the games samurai, they do not usually wear plate - they wear leather armor (If even that, sometimes just a kilt). So neither warrior nor hunter truly fits the bill - Blademasters do, and they’re very different from warriors in terms of abilities.

Now, I’m not saying they should add ‘‘Samurai (Blademaster)’’, but I wouldnt mind a ‘‘Blademaster’’ spec for Warriors, as I’ve always been into their lore and stuff, but it wont happen - so I wont ask for it.

Except, this is a misconception. Samwise made the first Pandaren character, which was when his daughter was born (he was refered to as a panda himself before this), and its a Panda human with a small female child on his back (who wears clothes similar to Li Li). Blizzard used this photo as a joke for Warcraft 3 during Aprils Fools - and people actually loved the idea - and then promptly got upset that it was a joke, because they thought Pandaren was cool.

Pandaren, since Warcraft 3, has been an actual, canonical, race. It has never been a joke race. It started out as an Aprils Fools joke that people took seriously. So stop with this crabs. I’ll also add that people should stop saying Pandaren is ‘‘Kung Fu Panda’’ rip off, when Chen Stormstout was added in Warcraft 3 - 5 years before the ‘‘Kung Fu Panda’’ movie came out, so if anyone is ripping off anyone - it’s ‘‘Kung Fu Panda’’ ripping off Pandaren.

Play arms, and you are a Samurai.

It would be interesting if they could add different animations for specific weapon types on the existing classes

That’s entirely incorrect, but ok. Think that :smiley:

I said people.

Don’t count me in with those, I dont care what they are.

Alright fair.

Samurai class would be a fantastic addition to the game, but I would choose Ninja instead.

animations in general are outdated compared to other MMORPGs.

The difference is as someone explained to me is, knights fought to live.
Meanwhile Samurai fought to die a glorious death.

Hmm fighting to die a glorious death, Lok’tar ogar as in victory or death.
I think Blizz really fusioned african and japanese culture in the orcs.

Hmm, almost like they have Blademasters that are heavily inspired by the Samurai…

Well it is mostly a one way ticket.
It makes sense for priests or warriors to evolve in paladin. It also makes sense for warriors or paladins and kind of survival hunters to evolve into death knight.
It also makes sense for shamans and mages to evolve into a warlock
For trolls we have the kind of unique situation that for them it makes sense for evolving from priest to shaman or druid. This is unique to the trolls because they pray not to the light but to the loa and so the evolve as speaking to only one loa as a priest to all loa as a shaman or druid.
But for some hard exception it is mostly a one way ticked. Theorethical it may be possible of going back from being a warlock to a mage or shaman again or that a palading loses his access to the light and so becomming a simple warrior but those are nothing what you do regulary.

Two handed spec for rogues

Doesn’t change that some people don’t always see it as such, though.

I’m not saying they are furry or not.

Ugh, no thanks.

Anyway UwU stuff was inevitable in WoW, every mmo has UwU races, sooner or later wow had to join bandwagon.

I wouldn’t know, as I dont play any other MMO.

samurai, bard, barbarian.

Samurai should have been introduced in Mist of Pandaria along with Monk and possibly Ninja.

Bard would have been an original class since the beginning of WoW.

Kul Tiran race screams Barbarian to me.

Good, Barbarian is very much a Warrior.

Go ahead and play that.
