## Blizzard survey prompt
Blizzard appears to be considering adding new classes to World of Warcraft: Forever based on player survey claims.

> Warden, Necromancer, and what sounds a lot like a vampire are also on the list
## Survey class list
Demon Hunter, Warden, Death Knight, Necromancer, Witch, Tinker, Metalborn/Runesmith, Bard, Illusionist, and Monk are listed in the survey.

> Demon Hunter, San’layn, Plate armor, these guys are basically vampires?
## Class descriptions
Warden is a tank with melee DPS and plate armor, Necromancer is a cloth armor mage with shadow- and death-themed abilities.

> Necromancer, Cloth armor, a mage with shadow- and death-themed abilities (sounds rather similar to Warlocks)
## Existing classes
Demon Hunter, Death Knight, and Monk are already classes in retail World of Warcraft but may differ in Forever.

> Demon Hunter, Death Knight, and Monk are all already classes in retail World of Warcraft
## New classes
Witch, Tinker, Metalborn/Runesmith, Bard, and Illusionist are new to WoW: Forever.

> Witch, Ranged DPS (caster) and support class, cloth armor
## Support classes
Several classes are listed as 'support' which is not a role in WoW Classic or Forever.

> Witch, Ranged DPS (caster) and support class, cloth armor
## Blizzard's response
Blizzard may add new classes but the survey's accuracy and seriousness are uncertain.

> Assuming it’s real, we don’t know how serious Blizzard is about adding new classes at all
## Player hopes
Players hope for new classes like Tinker and San’layn rather than reconfigured existing ones.

> Give me Bard, Blizzard! Let me sing my allies to victory!
## Key takeaway

Blizzard may add new classes to World of Warcraft: Forever based on player survey responses.
