Hi! Is it possible we get wow class swittch on the same character?
ex. Instead of creating another character, I can just switch from my Blood Elf Paladin class to my Blood Elf DK class or any class playable by Blood Elf.

Highly unlikely, for a couple of reasons.
- The number of leveling players would drop drastically, causing very long dungeon queue times for new players and alts.
- Blizzard sells level boosts, those sales would also drop alot, thats just bad buisness.
- With more class/race combo’s being added nearly every patch these days, eventually everyone will be able to play all classes on one character, and no longer play alts, reducing the average players playtime, wich also looks bad on the spreadsheets.
Im sure there are more reasons, i just cant think of them right now.
I get why this would be a great idea from a player perspective, but from a buisness perspective, there are all kinds of things wrong with it, so its unlikely they would do something like that.

Not necessarily, no. The way FF14 does this is that you are able to LEVEL every class on the same character, and this is a very good system. If WoW were to adopt it, the overall amount of time players spend levelling would be the same. In fact, it would likely be higher because:
- Players who have several alts to play multiple classes will need to level the classes again if they want them all on one character.
- Players who want to play a different race and don’t want/can’t afford to pay for a race change will need to level every class again on a new race.
This makes no sense. Doing the same content as multiple classes on the same character is the same as playing alts. It would mean some changes in the way M+ scoring and raid character rankings are handled, as well as raid lockouts, but it wouldn’t mean reduced play time.

Im not saying it cant be done, just that its highly unlikely blizzard would do it.
Besides, if each class has its own progression, what is the difference between having all classes on one character vs having a character for each class. The only thing saved would be a 30 second relog. Thats not much of a reason to rework a lot of the games fundamental core mechanics.
This is the ONE ff14 feature I would love to see in WoW the most.
Unfortunately it won’t happen for a number of reasons, both financially on Blizzards end since people would stop boosting, and technically since the game isn’t build up around it.
For example the Legion class order hall system would require a complete restructure, which Blizz won’t do for a non-current expansion. 
So yeah…. Unfortunately don’t get your hopes up.

I don’t know how it works on FF14, but I can’t imagine my bank & bags spaces if I need to have gear for every classes if this was a possibility.
It’s already trouble with Pvp, DPS & Prot gears…

Its not possible nor would it be a good thing considering the type of people that play wow.
FOTM losers would just go wild.
Your gear isn’t in your bags in FF14. You have a separate gear tab.
I would loooove thar. Love ff14 especially because I can have all on one character!
And tthe storylinie is awesome 
The short answer is no.
Very unlikely. Otherwise they would have to make every class available on every race AND have us level each class from anew (from lvl 1) when switching to it for the first time.
