Concerning Hero Classes...

    I think he meant ONE per race as in 1 orc hero on the entire server.

     

    Obviously this would never fly, because too many people find it unfair for 1 person to be more powerful than everyone else. I talked about this in my other post.

     

    It's just a cool idea, not something that will ever happen tho

    Lol that would totally suck for whoever didn't get hero but it might get kind of boring since lets say all Orc Warriors become blademasters or all Night Elve Hunters become Demon Hunters. It would be cool to have a set of different skills you could buy once you become a hero or something like that.

    Hero classes are planned for the final release soon. All classes can change into hero classes at lvl40.

    Examples of class-to-hero changes:

    Troll Shaman=Troll Shadow Hunter

    NE Druid=NE Keeper Of The Grove

    Check out at www.worldofwar.net for more info

    Why lvl 40? That's a horrible idea. Doesn't every class have skills to learn after 40? If everyone just jumps on the hero class at 40 then what's the point? I'd rather get the most out of my Tauren druid before starting on whatever the heroclass for that is. It'd be better if they made it at lvl cap.

    I think that you will be able to select a hero class ones you are high level but they will include it in late patches no point of doing it now.

    As of mid-may (at E3) it seems the devs (or at least Joshua Kurtz) wasn't too sure about when and how the hero classes would work.

     

    This is a cut and paste from a WoW Vault interview.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    WoW Vault: A recent article mentioned that Hero classes are planned for level 60. Is that correct?

    Joshua Kurtz: We actually haven't finished the design on the heroes yet. The level of design we have on heroes right now is that we know we want them, but we're not sure exactly how we're going to implement them.


     WoW Vault: Are they still planned for release?

    Joshua Kurtz: We don't know yet.


     WoW Vault: Will there be unique hero classes for every race/class combo?

    Joshua Kurtz: It's not decided yet. I would like to, it would be cool.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Well, that certainly clears it up...

  • gaeria84gaeria84 Member Posts: 105
    My guess is... expect hero classes to be implemented in the next expansion, hero classes starting at lvl60. That's my prediction..

    Hopefully it will be in release or a lot of people won't be too happy since I can't wait to have my character become a hero. I wonder what they'll do......

    It would probly even be safe for them to release the game without the code for hero clsses in yet, then they would still have atleast a month or two before players started maxing out to do internal testing and put in the code in a patch. Thats what galaxies did with Jedi.

    I think some of you are thinking of the hero class in the wrong way.  From what I have read, it is not like you are selecting a new class, but you start morphing into the hero.  Its just like your class name would change from 39 dwarven warrior to 40 mountain king (mountain king is one of the hero classes I have seen confirmed, the other is demon hunter which would be a night elf warrior).

    Do not think of the hero class as a new or sub-class, it just allows you to get different abilities, at least thats my take on it from what I have read.

    So there are no abilities for base classes past 40? That's....kindof a bummer.

    well, there aren't any... yet. Heck, I think the current level cap is 45. They're still working on the high-end material. It'll be there, don't worry.

    Remember this is still beta so not everything is in yet (talents were just introduced to Mages and Warriors so far).

    The Current cap is 50 and the devs seem to be more focused on testing the newer areas and content that are added in each patch rather than add more abilities to balance.

    Most of the balancing will occur at the end of the beta before retail.

    Techinically there is the Paladin who is a hero in warcraft...

    ...but I beleive u shud become a hero at lvl 60. Playing a Death Knight would Ownimage! but there are no undead loyal 2 the lich king anyway!image The problem is thou eventually everyone would be a hero and the game might get dull, but I don't know only time will tell!

    Well, according to the patch notes the current level cap is 45, so it's all open to speculation, but every available spell/skill lists show every class gaining new abilities right up to level 60. (e.g. Priests appear to have 6 different spells that they get the max rank of at 60)  So I wouldn't worry there.

    As for hero classes, anything anyone says now is abject speculation... I mean, Blizzard literally hasn't announced anything except that nothing is decided yet (which they've announced many times ;) )....   ...still, fun to speculate..

  • Axel_karefAxel_karef Member Posts: 279

    yea I don't remember what mag it was, I have it somewhere around here. But the gaming magazine with the 6 page WoW article. It announced that there would be hero classes. Does that mean that Blizzard will for sure? I'd think they'd get in some trouble if they advertised a false speculation as a game feature. Even if the game is still in beta.

    They said it would be implemented, just not how or when or any of those nifty details.

    Or when maybe they feel like ending the beta and launching the damn game already...I mean I'm all for having them put out a near flawless game at launch but I'm sorry this wait is killin me.
