Re: Pandaren (And other stuff about the upcoming expansion)

You could also consider making it a cross-faction, as in a neutral guild. Just to represent Pandaria is a neutral nation. This will actually be a very viable option if Pandaren will be able to communicate cross-faction.

Actually I look forward to seeing the creative solution Blizzard has for this solution, as it makes absolutely no sense for Pandaren not being able to communicate cross-faction. What, Horde and Alliance Pandaren speak another dialect or something? Pandonese and Pandarin?

All this disagreement about the new race makes me a sad panda.

by **Morinth** Sat Oct 22, 2011 10:20 am

I don't think you'll be able to communicate. As I see it, you choose which Pandurr tribe to join as you start levelling. Something about fighting between them. And obviously, it basically translates to HORDE <3 Or Allyfaggotry.

As they should, because that's exactly what Pandaren are. That's like complaining about there being too many Goblin merchants, or too many Draenei Light worshippers. Or complaining about that too many Scarlets that are paladins. And so forth.

A nation cannot be run by ninjas and bartenders. Just as a Draenei society cannot be entirely priests, and goblins need cooks.
And to be fair, our scarlet guild is fairly balanced on classes.

Well there are NPC's who run the nation xD

Edit: Seriously laughing at nay sayers though

by **Lyniath** Sat Oct 22, 2011 10:33 am

The whole basis of RP is us taking over roles usually reserved for NPC's
Otherwise we'd all be OMG SUPER ADVENTURERS YAY!!!

I had the idea of making my Panderia a sanctuary, RP wise that is. I don't know how that will work out with communications, but we will figure out a way when we get there.

Main base will probably be that area as well, but I did not plan on making them neutral, that's too difficult on an RP-PvP realm. What I did plan on doing is to create a rule on not attacking Alliance Pandaren if we will go to an RP-PvP battle.

FINE. I'LL MAKE A STUPID PANDA. IT'LL BE NAMED AFTER THE PANDA I SPONSOR IRL IN CHINA. AND MY GUILD WILL BE THE PANDA ADVENTURE SQUAD.

by **Lyniath** Sat Oct 22, 2011 10:59 am

No Mori! Just get a panda mount and go invisible, then be an actual panda.

by **Destiny** Sat Oct 22, 2011 11:02 am

Going to roll a Panda as quick as possible. The Asian culture in game could be awesome!

Hrm.. Well I suppose Shaelyssa needs some sort of long-lost-lesbian-lover night elf female monk.. Who I can.. play..?

Either that or it's female orc monk.

Female Orcs are pretty awesome, I'm looking forward to playing as a monk rather than a pandaren <3

by **Gesh** Sat Oct 22, 2011 11:33 am

I can imagine certain races being incredibly awkward in the Eastern setting.. but then some races being -epic- in it.

Undead monk... Sad

Dislike.
Orc monk!? YEEESS YESS

by **Ixirar** Sat Oct 22, 2011 11:38 am

My brother looked at the presentation for a few moments, went "Panda? Cool!", looked at it for a few more moments and went all 0_0 "OH MY GOD DAVID WE'LL HAVE GNOME MONKS!!"

Depending on the kung fu specific animations for each race though, I'd say I'd much rather have a non-pandaren monk if I was to buy this xpac.

by **Kristeas Sunbinder** Sat Oct 22, 2011 11:40 am

Reason for no Goblin Monk = Yoda's.

And I'll prob get a Belf Monk if I'm still playing WoW then, and a panda monk, just to play around the starting area.
*cough* stole monk-magic from the panda's, I swear.

by **Thelos** Sat Oct 22, 2011 12:00 pm

I can see a great rivalry budding between the Clefthoof School and the Kodo School.
