Speculating on the Orc race hero here....
If it's something like unlocking the race hero , I think the hero should come from the shaman class, (although i wouldn't be against each race having a few different kinds of heros). Sort of like following in the footsteps of Thrall, WARCHIEF!!!
only the Warchief has Bloodlust, effective for his whole group if the warchief is group leader(effecting maybe just other orcs).
The orc campaign was my favorite story of the whole WC3 game. I like the concept that orcs aren't really evil, but were tainted by demonic forces( wanna go evil, go undead or troll). they were slaves pretty much. They were forced to fight the humans and lost almost everything. So ultimately, during the time the orcs were ruled by demons, the warlock was the political leader class. but now with the guidance of Thrall, orcs look to their "old time" religion, the spiritual world of the shaman. Shamans are probably held in the highest of respect currently with how much the orcs have started to thrive under Thrall's leadership. This would make the shaman the major political power class now in Durotar (with the two major powers being Thrall and Cairne) Probably every orc whelpling wants to grow up to be a shaman-warchief, just like Thrall. The shaman is the orc's paladin, of course they're the ones tapped for warchief!
I would imagine warlocks are held in low regard, i'm suprised orcs allow them in their society because of their links to the demons. It could be because of the same reason they allied with the undead, because they had to . Perhaps a good storyline would be a quest to keep a renegade orc warlock from opening another portal to the demons if there isn't already one like that now.
I only got into the stress test, and i think about this game way too much. I've never anticipated a game release like this one before. I already have my first four charcters mapped out with what i want to do, only waiting for the hunters talents now, and the game of course.
release it already!

IMO, i think the Trolls are kinda heading attempting to head down the same path as thr orcs. There is no douting they are a more "evil race" than the orcs or tauren, but, i think the Trolls are doing there best to be good. Heck, compare them to there cannable Ice/forest/dark troll brothers, and the dark spear Trolls are saints. Im really looking forward to the Troll story as well.

IRT Jeffowa
Oh, honey. I am waiting with intense anticipation for the development of the Troll storyline. I enjoy every aspect of them...but good God...would it kill Blizzard to make them less Jamaican?!? That is the only thing that annoys me. I was hoping for a little more gris gris and a little less Bob Marley...*sigh* Oh, well.
I do hope however that the Darkspear trolls join back with the Jungle trolls and destroy those pesky undead haha I KNOW they will betray us! |

Besides, my idea of Shaman hero class :D
Orc's:Far seers
Troll's:ShadowHunters
Tauren's: Spirit walkers
Far Seers being Shamans but More Caster-less melee Which includes New Talent tree so called "Hero tree" Which certain Skills get Sacraficed for new skills ( only a certain amount of points like Talents and u can Specialise by very differently)
Shadowhunters.. Cant figure much to say here.. Throwing Specialised Perhaps with Hex and so on! Sacraficing ur Elemental skills for the Dark arts of Shadow
Spirit Walkers: Being really In touch with Nature and so forth, mostly Very melee / Healing.. Combat rezz perhaps? or betters heals? Sacrafices Elemental to be
Ofc now im just Rambling like a crazy man.. but always fun to get carried away by ur thoughts ;-)
