Title: Hero Classes? Post by: Merusk on May 26, 2006, 12:49:26 PM I don't buy this one bit, but figured I'd share with the rest of you. This link was C&P'd into my Guild's forums.
The blogger claims that any threads referring to it or information out of it are being deleted. Of course, Blizz usually does that with completly off-the-wall stuff that'll stir the GD forum into too much of a tizzy. Most of the classes read too much like a hardcore boy's wet-dream and seem to alter the base class too much. Some are so off-base that it makes it obvious to me that it's a fake.

"I'm getting tired of making stuff up, so see above." Title: Re: Hero Classes? Post by: SpaceDrake on May 26, 2006, 02:54:52 PM Lie with a grain of truth, most likely. Just about all "forum posted" information is fabricated off of something someone heard elsewhere.
However, the producers and whatnot for Burning Crusade have said on several occasions that all the classes are going to get some fairly wicked abilities in the post-60 bracket, so expect to see some "heroic" abilities on your character in the near future.

I got to warrior classes and I thought the same thing. There's nothing there. Title: Re: Hero Classes? Post by: Fabricated on May 26, 2006, 03:37:55 PM Horse shit.
Title: Re: Hero Classes? Post by: Righ on May 26, 2006, 03:49:25 PM I haven't played a druid much, so it didn't strike me as completely insane until I hit the first hunter description. C'mon now, at least make up sensible bullshit.
Title: Re: Hero Classes? Post by: Morfiend on May 26, 2006, 04:01:23 PM This has been around for a long time. I think it was debunked a few times. Also, originally it said hero classes where going to let you go up to level 62 in the expansion. And we know 70 to be the new limit.
Title: Re: Hero Classes? Post by: jpark on May 26, 2006, 04:19:04 PM Spellbreakers is mentioned as a hero class - yet we know that is going to be a separate added class to the game in the expansion. This just may reflect the age of the information.

This just may reflect the age of the information. No new classes in the expansion. (Officially. I still say Blood Elves without SBreakers is like ice cream made without milk.) Title: Re: Hero Classes? Post by: Phred on May 27, 2006, 02:22:52 AM The hero classes for hunter make no sense. Unless there are more options unmentioned both choices for alliance hunters completely remove ranged combat from the class, which doesn't make a bit of sense. In fact the only race hunter that keeps the ability to do range damage is the troll. Bleh. I'd go with fake myself.

Why should my 1-60 abilities change? I could see splitting into three hero classes (reflecting, probably, tbe talent pools) -- so a Hunter could take 10 levels in something that focuses them along their ranged attacks, their traps and melee, or their pets....but getting rid of your pet at level 60? WTF?Fake, fake, fake, fake -- unless he's somehow missed all the critical details. |
