Around Azeroth: A snake in the grass

by Elizabeth Wachowski Feb 1st 2012 at 10:00AM

"The whole 'rogues must wield thrown daggers/ninja stars' thing always depressed me," writes Fentonius of Argent Dawn (EU-A). "Just look at this goblin lining up the perfect shot from the shadowy shrubbery, if you disagree with me." Hey, that's one advantage that gnomes and goblins have -- they can hide in the tall grass and shoot from there. And I'm sure a round of buckshot to the knees will bring even a tauren down to the ground.

Is that an NPC? Likely, but still, is that "mask" available to players as a head item?

"Clever girl..."

Sniping is more of a Hunter style of combat IMO. Hunters have to be stealthy to catch their prey, too.

i.e: Cheetahs

Except that, you know, WoW hunters aren't stealthy. Sure, they can go camo at max level, but most of the time they run around carrying big loud guns and sending massive bears charging into their prey.

WoW doesn't really have a good sniper class. I'd love to see a Rogue with a bow or gun that could get say backstab damage while using their gun. Stealth in, lay low, snipe the badguy in the back, move on to the next target, it would rock. Or you know, give it to hunters, guess that could work too.
