I'm not sure I believe it. Eyonix's post is evasive, and a previous statement by the devs (Blizcon?) indicated they are happy with the factional animosity that those two classes tend to generate.

But hey, could be. If so I'd be tempted to make one of the approximately 3,428,658 Blood Elves that will be emoting their way through the newbie zone - a paladin. =)

They shouldn't be called that - it should be Knight or something, and the Alliance shaman called Witches. Or something.

Well, that'll help us progress in new content while eliminating all the stupid-ass bitching about shamans from the Night Elf n00bs, so I guess it's a good thing.

[Thwak]

it will allow content to be harder and geared towards specifically requiring a paladin or shaman in the group or raid. currently it seems to be one or the other on most encounters. so what that means is paladins aren't going to be an option but a neccessity. so who's rolling a paladin?

[Yexia]

I will! :)

[Myrcaus]

Me too.

Long live Myrcbubble!

Thumbs down on this change. And I already didn't care for a "pretty race" being added to the horde...

This one is definitely not evasive :)
