WoW Expansion News

I'm sure that everyone who plays has already heard the screaming about this, but I think it's kinda cool!

Alliance gets the Shaman class and Horde gets the Paladin class in the Burning Crusade expansion.

I'm totally gonna make a blue Shammy. And a blue Pally... but still. The Shammy is all I care about.


The Blood Elf lore... well it sucks. It's not like the Undead aren't already using the powers of the Light as priests or anything, so why the Blood Elves had to resort to serious amounts of magical experimentation to become Paladins is beyond me.

I'm really looking forward to the Alliance Shammy myself. I get a kick out of all the screaming about the whole thing. There are even a few people in my guild that said the usual, if they do this I'm quitting this game!!! I just laughed at them.

People will go off the deep end over the tiniest of things.

Yeah. I liked the blue-name discussion as to the reasons. What it really boils down to is that old truth "Seperate but Equal is never Equal", and that's what the Shammy and Pally were supposed to be. They couldn't design any group content around either class without excluding one entire faction, so they didn't design any group content around them.

All I know is that in the end I'm looking forward to getting my hunter to level 70, and also looking forward to starting up an Alliance Shammy. That'll make me happy.
