With official word that there will be new race-class combinations in World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, Blizzard has posted the official matrix of what races will have what classes available to them. Big surprises so far include Worgen Druid and Goblin Shaman!
The full matrix is above, and the text list below. All of our previous speculation was correct, so this should give rerollers plenty of opportunity to experience the new, shattered realm of Azeroth!
- Human Hunter
- Orc Mage
- Night Elf Mage
- Blood Elf Warrior
- Dwarf Shaman
- Dwarf Mage
- Undead Hunter
- Tauren Paladin
- Tauren Priest

Start now! Level an undead or b.elf priest, then when Cataclysm launches, hit the 'paid faction change' button and *boom* gnome priest.

I agree, I don't want to delete or transfer characters. I'm going to need at least 3 more slots. Preferably more.

Yeah, someone needs to ask them if they are going to add more character slots or not.

I still don't get undead hunter. I can see the others (i'm genuinely curious about night elf mages...) But...
The reason they gave originally that there wouldn't be any undead hunters is because undead humans smell like rotting food and animals won't go near them.
What, do undead wear air fresheners now?
Lunati Aug 21st 2009 4:38PM
Undead hunters arn't that bad a match, especially considering humans are getting it too (and they exist in lore) of course, to rp one properly, you should get a dead rotting bear, undead boar or a plaugehound. :)

If there can be Human Hunters makes sense for Undead ones, but it would be quite lol as the pet would probs start nom noming on the rotting fleshed "master"
Sylvanas Stew anyone?
Bullseyed Aug 21st 2009 4:44PM
Sylvanis is a Banshee.

Nathanos Marris was the first Ranger Lord, trained by High Elves. After he succomed to the Scourge and was freed by the Banshee Queen, he became Nathanos Blightcaller. He is a Hunter with two hound pets in Eastern Plaguelands.
