New race : World of Warcraft General Discussions

Ha I beat you again.

Blizzard is proud to officially announce the second new race of the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion set, World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade - the mysterious wisps! At the Battle of Mount Hyjal, the Burning Legion gave the world a taste of its true, terrible power. Archimonde the Defiler himself led the vanguard, crushing all who stood in his way, determined to reach the World Tree at the mountain's peak. In the end, only one power was strong enough to destroy the insidious Archimonde: the Wisps.

Check out the new Alliance race on the Burning Crusade Website, and learn more about the wisps' historical background and their awe-inspiring racial ability: Detonate!

Tri I wasn't competing against you to get new before you. And I probably would've had it first but I was too busy trying to figure out the difference in taste between coke and pepsi.

saps =P

Im putting my money that the wisps are an April Fool's joke, how will they look when they wear armor or weapons?

OF COURSE ITS FAKE! PERMANENT DEATH? HAPPY APRIL FOOLS

edit: seriously have you guys even looked through that page?

Let me talk about it like it would be real:
Perma Death when you die? That is like Diablo 2's Hardcore system, but the only problem is the wisps don't look cool.

Detonate doesn't even do damage, and it takes 50 mana away from you and dispells your buffs (or something like that) <--- lawlz

The wisps themselves can't wear armor 0_0

We know it is an April Fools joke (Hopefully), but when I first read I thought they were serious, and instantly thought that I would not play that class at all, and felt the alliance had gotten jipped. They got me good... Until I went to the WoW forums ;-P

Haha I looked at it and in character creation the wisp had a mustache. This BETTER be fake.

i wish it was real because i would have a huge long braded beard

the real new race is either gonna be panda's (i hope so)

or tuksann or w/e they are called...

cause alliance need a BIG race now... we have all the thin small races...

Fishy I think they said it was going to be an original race, one not from any of the previous games. Hopefully by original they don't mean re-colored.

I wanna change color option for facial hair:/
Ihmo pink whisp rogue would be good?

Treeform ftw!

Realy: i think new race for alliance will be dranei, they are humans but changed by blabla blaa....

dranei, are still a tad too evil to be the new race

Well, if you look on the screenshot where he detonated, first off, it has Keanu saying "Woah." and also, instead of the regular "Revive Character" or whatever it is supposed to say, it says "Reroll Character."

Obviously a joke

It's funny to me how many people actaully believe that's the new race

Lol I just thought, what if it really was the new race, and the joke was that it was an aprial fools joke


Silly me

Wisp is a joke that blizz is trying to pull. Im still waiting for it to be funny
