Megaman could learn the abilities of the bosses he defeated. Not bad, but us gnomages are a clever bunch too. I mean, if we can conjure up delicious snacks out of thin air, summon magical creatures and control the weather, I’m sure we can handle running a little faster. In fact, since we are the cleverest class, dare we say…anything you can do I can do better?…okay, maybe not better, but we’re still the cleverest nonetheless! Stay tuned to see how to turn our gnomage into a Megagnomage.
Shammygnomage
C’mon shammies, you call shoving a stick in the ground an ability?
Ability: Stoneclaw Totem
Mega Version: Advanced Target Dummy
Ability: Searing Totem
Mega Version: Gnomish Flame Turret
See? No need to get all “trance-like”. It just takes some clever tinkering.
Huntardgnomage
So you hunters think it’s funny shooting pointy things at us, eh? Didn’t your mom tell you never to point a gun at someone? What? No, when did she ever say don’t throw fireballs at people? Nope, never heard it, and you know it.
Ability: Track Humanoids
Mega Version: Blackened Worg Steak
The hunter now becomes the hunted…
Ability: Flare
Mega Version: Gnomish Alarm-o-Bot
Alright, we’ll forgive you for shooting at us if you’ll agree we both hate rogues. Nothing like a common enemy to solidify a friendship. Okay, at least until we kill the rogue.
Stabbygnomage
You actually pride yourselves on being backstabbers? What kind of people are you? Well, two can play at that game.
Ability: Sprint
Mega Version: Nitro Boosts
Na, na, na, na, nah…you can’t catch me!
Ability: Vanish
Mega Version: Gnomish Cloaking Device
Now you see me, now you don’t. Now you see me, now you don’t. Anything you can do, I can do better…I love that song.
Facemeltygnomage
You priests aren’t so bad. At least you understand the ways of magic.
Ability: Resurrection
Mega Version: Gnomish Army Knife
You’re not the only ones who can raise the dead. We can too…well…50% of the time. And anyways, everyone should have one of these.
Ability: Mind Control
Mega Version: Gnomish Mind Control Cap
Think you’re the only ones who can do Jedi mind tricks? “You want to jump off that cliff…”
Ability: Power Word: Shield
Mega Version: Nigh Invulnerability Belt
Thought I was at %1 health? Well didn’t expect a mage to bubble, did you? Bwahahahaha.
Droodgnomage
Druids always bring da ganja, so…what was I talking about again? Whatever, I would kill a baby squirrel to see Gnome druids. Wait, I think I’ve already done that…
Ability: Rejuvenation
Mega Version: Lifeblood
Yay! I got HOTs! I’m hungry now…
Lockgnomage
Just admit it guys – you wanna be mages. Fine! Be that way and stay on your dark side!
Ability: Unending Breath
Mega Version: Mastercraft Kalu’ak Fishing Pole or Water Breathing Potion
While we still can’t pull off the drowning a friend prank, we can ensure that we will never be victims of such a prank! There are actually many items that have the same effect, you warlock conjurers of cheap tricks!
Pallygnomage
Alright, I’m gonna talk reeeeeal sloooow, okay? It’s 1, then 2, 3, 4. Got it?
Ability: Consecration
Mega Version: Argent Dawn Banner
Think you can hold aggro? Well, I can too, see? Oh sh*t…
Deathgnomage
Strangulate, Mind Freeze, Chains of Ice, Anti-Magic Shell, Anti-Magic Zone. FU! Unless you’re a Gnome.
Ability: Path of Frost
Mega Version: Elixir of Water Walking
Being that mages are the quintessential magic users, I find it odd that they cannot perform the oldest trick in the book. No worries – I always carry a stack of these around in case I need to perform a miracle. These drop regularly from the Outland fishing dailies where you should get more than enough.
Bashygnomage
“We have this magical sword. It kills people when you shove it into them.” -Akama, Azerothian Super Villains
Ability: Be a meat shield.
Mega Version: No thank you.
What can us mages say about warriors? If you’re a Gnome, that’s impressive. Otherwise, you’re just a big ball of meat. No offence to any Tuskarr intended.
So there you have it. With a little ingenuity you can be anything you want. You may have noticed a lot of Gnomish devices. Of course! Who else is going to do the thinking and tinkering? (Re-roll a Gnome already!) Now how about one more time all together…”Anything you can do I can do better…”
