Next Expansion " Mists of Pandoria"

[EaTCarbS]

There is not enough information available to make a reasonable conjecture. It could be an expansion, a book, or any other number of things.

they need to make the expansions inclusive. the cost for new accounts is unreal, a totally new player is gonna be out around 100$

There is based on the codes used in the TM filing, as MMO-Champ pointed out.

I agree, monk as a dps/healer would be a good choice and my first thought too was they'd heal through a melee version of smite-atonement healing since that seemed to work well as a healing mechanism once people got used to it.

The only thing they will HAVE to do if they introduce a new class is give us more character slots per server, it seems more than just multiboxers are now starting to max out character slots on a server with 85's and no-one every really wants to be forced to delete a character or start a new one on a totally new server without a desire to do so.

They could always make the Pandaren like those walrus people in WotLK. A new race that players can interact with and quest for, but that is not a playable race.

Or perhaps make the walrus people a playable race, lol.

I don't think that a new class is a good idea. With the class homogenization that has gone on due to the "bring the player, not the class" approach, there's no way to really make a new class stand out aside from the name. If they did find a way to make a new class unique, they would almost immediately make sure that at least two or three other classes could do the same so as not to force raids to bring a monk. If the monk was some kind of weird DPS/healing hybrid, you'd see a revamp of paladins and shaman to make them just like a monk.

I understand Blizzard's desire to keep raids from being forced to use certain comps or classes, but the homogenization of the classes has been a very bad idea, IMO.

Even though it might not seem like a good idea, its necessary to keep fans playing. A new race only provides so much re-playability. But new classes every few expansions is almost essential to maintaining as much of the fan base as possible, as well as bringing in new players. And Monk is one of the classes that has the popularity to make the masses reroll.

I actually had to delete characters recently as faction change would only show 7 characters and of course the one I wanted to change was the 8th and didn't show until I deleted a 70 priest. I didn't plan on using that priest ever, so no big deal.

I think they are trowing people off just before blizzcon where they will announce the emerald dream as the next expo. If gaypanda`s make it into wow I will quit.

emerald dream is 90+ :P we got to have something to fill the new gap 85-90 (thats was not planned) rember a lot of work for exp is done years before.

The entire "plan" hasn't gone as planned. They have 2 more expansions coming out. The burning legion is last.

Also story line wise the emerald dream already happened, and there is almost no lore that can be done with it for raids/dungeons etc.

Lyonheart - are you still playing any RIFT? I still have my two accounts, but haven't logged in in over a month. Am paid through September, but considering cancelling since I've been working on my all mage team, which I should get to 76 later today.
