Here is an interesting new tidbit. In another masterstroke that adds finishing touches to the rich tapestry of Blizzard's RetCons and contradictions, Blood Elves will not be able to choose Warrior as a class.
Yes, yes, we all know that previously Blizzard stated that any race, when cornered, can pick up a weapon and fight - hence every race can be a warrior. But while the dimunitive Gnomes hack at their enemies with weapons twice their size, and the fairy Night Elves take a break from their dance lessons to tank Nefarion in a full suit of armor, it seems our magical Blood Elf friends forgot how to don some armor, a shield and a sword and just hack and slash at their enemies. Well, almost forgot - they can use a shield, as long as they are using the power of the unholy version of holy light and - sometimes - shoot lazer beams from their eyes.
Er, pardon for that - here is the link.
