What classes are
available in World of Warcraft?
The classes in the
World of
Warcraft are Warriors, Mages, Druids,
Hunters, Warlocks, Priests, Paladins, Rogues,
and Shamans. Please visit the Classes page for
more information.
Have all the classes been announced?
Yes, we have announced all the classes that will
be available in World of Warcraft at launch.
However, we are also discussing ways for
characters to evolve their classes through
specialization, which will help differentiate
them from others of the same class.
What classes can dual wield?
Rogues, Warriors, and Hunters can all learn to
dual wield.
Are there any non-combat or "pacifist" classes
that can gain levels from healing wounds, curing
disease, "buffing," or by providing any other
type of assistances to other players?
No.
Are there any sub-classes in the game?
There are no sub-classes, per se, in the game.
However, players of the same class can
differentiate themselves by choosing to
specialize in three different trees of talents.
A priest, for example, has access to talents in
the holy, restoration, and shadow trees. One
priest could become a "shadow" priest by
specializing in shadow talents, while another
could become a "holy" priest by focusing on holy
talents. All classes can specialize through
talents.
