Recommended Posts

7r4u5ni.jpeg

All classes can roll Mages, Priests, and Rogues in the Dragonflight expansion. In this post, we're looking at all the new race/class combos you can create.

New Race / Class Combos in Dragonflight

The Allied Race that benefits the most out of these new combos is Highmountain Tauren. You'll be able to roll the following new eight race/class combinations in the Dragonflight pre-patch.

  • Draenei Rogue
  • Highmountain Tauren Mage
  • Highmountain Tauren Priest
  • Highmountain Tauren Rogue
  • Lightforged Draenei Rogue
  • Orc Priest
  • Tauren Mage
  • Tauren Rogue

MrGM made a video about the new combinations that you can watch below.

I mean, I get their point. But, this feels just silly. There should be lore reasons why certain races can't certain classes.

Just let Pandas be warlocks. Why can't a Pandaren tap into dark magic when they can be mages. Warlock is my favourite DPS and Pandas my favourite race and I can't have both ;_;

Have you ever saw one evil pandaren?

You didn't. It's part of their culture. Why would a pandaren indulge in something as undoubtedly corrupting and malicious as Fel? Priests, the closest thing you get to one, balance the Shadow with Light, and Deathknights are risen corpses who had no say in it.

Same thing why this entire idea is yet another instance of them trying to shove "woke" inclusiveness even when it defies common sense, in a cultural (Orc priests, when they do not worship Light or Void, nor any associated deities) or even physiological way (sneaking around with hooves. Yay.)

Just because certain role isn't popular among some cultures, doesn't mean there can't be any exceptions. Races have spent a lot of time around each other, so it's not unlikely that some of them might decide to follow a different path than usual. Besides, the moment they started introducing things like Tauren paladins, all bets were off.

Even D&D 5th edition allows any class for any race (while previous editions were more restrictive), and a lot of stuff in Warcraft was inspired by D&D.

Ok. I get there might be some restrictions, but as said above it shouldn't matter as much now. And if we want to keep it with lore... Let's say you have to have a character of certain race maxed out and you unlock class possibilities. Maybe add a story to that? If you force me to level up anyway let's make it so I can create a, as I said, Pandaren warlock and do a story. Or just imply it. A mage striving for power falling into dark arts? Or maybe you just want to have a funny Imp friend? Warlock doesn't have to evil. Just... questionable ethics. If some class can be Warrior and can be a Priest, why not be a Paladin. It's literally a warrior priest. Even more devoted to the light. And so on and so on. Restrictions only make game worse at this point.

I'd consider a Tauren Rogue named Cowmooflage

Sadly Cowmooflage is taken...I tried already...but I did manage to reserve the name Shinobeef by making a Vulpera rogue that I plan on race changing once the pre-patch goes live.

You know those little soft pads you put under legs and feet or furniture so they don't scratch your floor?

Maybe the lore explanation for rogue dranei and tauren is they put those onto their hooves to soften the sound of their clomping.

6 for Horde and 2 for Alliance?

I'm hoping they make some more paladin options for Alliance to even things out.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
