You might be wondering whichgoblin classeswill be available, with the imminent release ofWorld of Warcraft: Cataclysm Classic. Or perhaps you play as Alliance and want to know which class you can choose as aworgen. Both races were originally—and again now in Classic—introduced with the Cataclysm expansion, and, like the others, you are limited to the class you can play.While you might have one of each class in modern WoW—or maybe that’s just me—leveling takes much longer in Classic, so it pays to know which race and class combination you want to play ahead of time.
