can hunter do solo brd coffers or fireguy?

put on righteous fury and seal of righteousness, what's wrong with it? i only ever did DM as tank so i don't know too much more

Night Elf priest
Fuck Fear Ward

What's the best PvP class?

why cant you people stick to one thread?

Undead Rogue so I can gank some Alliance lowbies in Redridge mountains.

Have you seen the other thread? Full of frogjak fuckers.

I am thinking of playing Shaman since I never played one during either early WoW or nu-WoW

What is the best leveling spec and what kind of stats do Shamans aim for?

warrior, dwarf or orc depending on server i roll

Forst Mage, Sub Rogue, Shadow Priest and Affliction Lock are the top tier classes everything else is varying degrees of shit. Warrior can be top tier, but only with a competent healslut.

Level orc enhancement and get yourself a big slow two hander

Undead warlock because that's what I started as so long ago

What does arcane mage do? why no one talks about them. its either fire or frost in all subjects

Attached: hqdefault.jpg (480x360, 23K)

Orc lock or Tauren druid if they update the animal forms, I'll most likely make them both anyway.

dwarf warrior
Ive got like 3 groups of 4 other friends that are all going 1 healer and 3 dps so I am going to be tanking for all 3 of them
gonna fucking make them all help me get my WW Axe and every other item I want too

>What does arcane mage do?
Ascend beyond the petty quarrels of frost & fire fags

Dwarf priest because my friends want me to roll alliance and dwarf is the obvious correct choice for priest.

Priest because I love healing and priest is the best healer.

Shaman is better and more fun

casts pyroblast every 3mins.

1 Shot anyone every 3 mins, do nothing in between.

orc warrior or tauren druid
its what I played back when I started and I stopped playing them because blizzard kept removing stuff that I liked

gets AP then puts their other points in frost or fire

Best pvp healer? Priest or shaman?

Human or gnome warrior

Druid.

Nothing because Taurens being perma cucked with 9 yard attack range is a joke for anything but a Warrior.

Hunter. You thrive in the open world, can farm gold better than any other class, and are still a necessary component of any raid due to your utility, despite low damage. Incredibly high skill cap + excellent in pvp.

He's talking about Deadmines, like very non-retarded person would when saying DM.

I still can't decide between Druid or Hunter, seems like a bitch to find groups as a class that is known to be played by retards 9 times out of 10

I played vanilla and i remember nobody ran dire maul but it was still called dm where as deadmines was reffered to as by the boss, van cleef

I want Gorgon to hug me!

Dm means Dire Maul, and everyone who played Vanilla knows that Deadmines was referred to as VC to avoid confusion. This is apparently an excellent litmus test to pick out zoomers who won't know the difference until after DM is opened

based

I played afflic lock in nilla and man I sucked at pvp so bad would get ganked by rogues and nuked by mages hard. Maybe ill try again anyway

When in classic, DM is Dire Maul. VC is Deadmines.

Paladin. I like healers and classes with impactful buffs in games. Plus I can tank (poorly) in an emergency.

ORCS HAVE FAT ASSESS!

No.

Deadmines predate dire maul.
Everybody I played with used DM when referring to deadmines.

The context makes it obvious whichever you're referring to anyways.

Started playing WC3 as well and jumping between OSRS FF14 and mordhau. None of them hold my attention long though.

sounds right probably in that order. rogues are more infuriating though by far

Depends what class you are

Human warlock. You know why.

maybe there was variance on different serves but I played a month after Initial release and it was 90% VC. really insignificant detail though

Yes, he's right. Warriors don't really need pocket healers if they're in BWL gear+, they're more competent than that generally speaking. Warriors are notorious for becoming insanely viable at 60 with decent gear, despite being everyone's bitch in PvP during leveling. So far as I remember. Warlocks and Spriests are really difficult due to things like fear, rogues stunlocking is very difficult to deal with, frost mages have eight thousand ways to slow your movement speed, and once warriors gear out Mortal Strike becomes insane

Troll hunter because I have a big dick.
Also this

e d g e l o r d
I will be rolling human warlock as well

You're lying.

Nobody would refer to deadmines by the initials of the last boss well over a year before dire maul was released. Nobody refers to a dungeon with the initials of the last boss.

Deadmines has and always will be DM.

So I no life’s the beta and got first 30 alliance priest and had quite a fun journey. I got a late start so fighting over mobs didn’t happen all that much for me and I basically soloed my dwarf priest all the way til Darkshore. This is when the magic started to begin I knew I couldn’t solo cave mushrooms so I sent a message in general and to my surprise from years of retail someone instantly helped me. This continued for awhile until until I met a warrior who was the same level as me doing the same quest and from there we just blasted into turbo leveling mode never having to stop. Ding 30. I instantly started doing every dungeon I could and helping my new friends get there gear even when mine was finished. Today I was helping that warrior get whirlwind axe and apparently a bunch of streamer where having a war where we were doing elementals and this broke out some of the most fun world pvp I’ve done in many of year. What I’ve learned is people are all willing to help each other everyone knows more then you(eye roll), steamers 100% influence servers and the 4channel crowd who hates streamers is not reflected in the beta player base at all. Also the world feels great and quests feel like they matter again. Overall I would say the beta is a great first step to recovering the game I loved -Swope the priest

never played a single troll character except a fury warrior that i deleted and made a human version of because im a retard. might have to do this

Fighting a frost mage as a melee class will give you cancer.

Did you refer to Gnomer as MT then? Or Sunken Temple as SoE?

you can reddit space me all you want but people did reffer to it by the bosses name you could probably find screentshots but its so unimportant I would just let it go.

Mage because that's how I started all those years ago
Human if my pals want to play alli
Undead if my pals want to play horde

I can't decide if classic is going to be comfy amazing or horrible boring, especially on max level

female human rogue
or male dwarf

Nope, because there was only one use of ST in the dungeon context, no confusion, and Gnomeragan was one word so people abbreviated it to just Gnomer, similar to calling Mauradon Mara. VC was a unique case. Any other questions? Next time you'll pass this litmus test.

Druid, the Chad class. Farms gold, does all roles good enough, stealth, fun in wpvp and pvp.

So you referred to deadmines using the last boss' initials for well over a year?

But only did this with deadmines?

Face it, you fucking jokes never played wow before they released dire maul.

Hunter, because I have always wanted to do those legendary hunter solo quests

I'm not even the guy you were arguing with it's just painfully cringe to read your wall of useless text. I figured "have sex" would be the best advice for someone like yourself and the only thing that could possibly turn your life around for the better. I know it sounds unlikely and much harder than the hardest raid you've ever cleared but I promise it's worth the effort.

absolutely wrong
both in 1vs1, as well as in group battle hunters are the top pvp class, aside from maybe warriors with healsluts in tow

its just troll racial or orc racial that people get hot and bothered over.
im not looking to be in a server first raiding guild tho since i have neither the time nor care to raid full time

Don't bring WARRNIGGERS to end game dungeons, holy fuck are they disgusting loot hogs.

Nothing as wow is shit and going back to how it was back in the day will not save it, one nostalgia wears off people will leave

Why do all of these memers act like hybrid classes did anything but heal? You can't tank without a taunt and faerie fire isn't good enough. You can't DPS outside of a leveling context competitively because the hybrid tax takes a flat percent right off the top of your DPS output. You can PvP all you want, but once raid progression leaves your dungeon set 1 in the dust you'll be scrambling to pug MC with guilds that have raggy on farm six months behind the people who are three shotting you in AV.

You are a Druid
You heal

You know that armor values are fucked on private servers and that melee classes are doing too much damage, right?

I want to mostly do World PvP so I pretty much need to be Lock or Mage

I hope they'll not do BGs for a while, or ever

My group swapped from Alliance to Horde as we were Horde when we all started vanilla.

I can't decide between mage and warlock, desu. Sounds better to pass out free water for a raid over farming soulshards to eternity. I was a mage in vanilla, so playing a new caster this time in PVP has its appeal, though.

Mages will be the most populous class in vanilla. Mark my words. It won't be warrior this time around.

How am I the revisionist?
I'm saying that there's no reason why anyone would refer to deadmines as VC until Dire Maul came out, which was well over a year into vanilla.

Warlock bro, trust me.

There are so many fucking mages.

>so desperate for people to believe this that he seeks out WoW threads to constantly post this
lel

But really tho have sex.

in blue gear maybe. not in t3 (although they are pretty good still)

Yeah, I hoped to cover that with what I said about dungeon set 1 being the top end for most hybrid non-healers. You'll be fine in shitty 5-man's but you'll never do the timed strath run and if you get into raids it will either be with a guild that your friends are in willing to carry you, or pugging 6+ month old content while everyone that has current gear is way out ahead. Which is fine, if you don't mind. There's only 1 nightfall shaman per raid, and it's normally the GMs bro.

can confirm, because I remember I didn’t know why the fuck they’d call it VC instead of DM, though someone once said calling a place after the name of the boss was a convention people brought from EQ, but I never played it

I am talking about actual vanilla servers
without the lame axe, spamming the debuff, casters aren't even close to melees in single target dps and aoe dps doesn't matter

that aside, all you know about private servers is that the values weren't right
you don't know if they were too high, too low or maybe just like 1% off

Yeah, I think I could agree with that. Everyone knows that Mage is the golden child class of a lot of aspects of Vanilla now.

I was going to do Warrior, but my old buddy is coming back to do Warrior. I might go Shaman, but probably not as another fag I know wants to (although he's a married cuck and won't play enough).

Why do you have to lie like that? You and I both know that the difference isn't that big and we also both know that melee classes have issues in several fights. My main point was that Mages don't have issues finding raid slots, with is objectively true.

Maybe I'll play something stupid like shadow priest or boomkin. That's what I'm looking forward to most. People just playing whatever class spec and race they want because people are better at the game now and computers are a lot faster.

There will never be enough Warriors for 5 mans, so the world will be your oyster.

they simply dont scale as well which is more apparent in pve

Leveling duo mages with a friend first so we can always farm shit easily
I mainly want to raid and pvp on a Rogue though
Will probably eventually level a Priest again just to have a pocket healer

It forces you to build a reputation as a good player

Main the dwarf hunter with your friends, level a horse warrior on a different server as an alt, that you can level whenever you want to play but your friends aren't around. You'll wind up outpacing the hunter, and by the time your warrior catches him you'll have a better idea of which one you'd rather play. So switch off of your pals server if they don't wind up playing as much, or if you decide it's not worth it because you hate the hunter. Otherwise you'll have your main, and the comfy cozy incognito warrior bro alt too. No need to rush him to 60

You're welcome

It's not that prevalent.

Druids are a lot more desired though, so if you're right on the fence then go druid.

>Feral threat is inherently amazing compared to warriors. It's because their threat is a multiplier rather than an additive based on damage done. This scales phenomenally well for each tier and makes them threat powerhouses especially late game. The bonus for them is if they ever want heightened or snap threat, a simple weapon swap to a Manual Crowd Pummeler is enough to boost sustained TPS by 25%. This isn't as useful for doing in the middle of a fight given that there's a 30 second cooldown before use, making quick decision TPS something a fury can do better. Druids can be very useful for fights where high threat ceilings is very important. Some fights to consider especially would be: Vaelastrasz, Patchwerk possibly but never tested (yes druid as the MT for this fight with warriors in T3 taking hatefuls), and Thaddius. Regardless any time you are trying to boost boss meters or for speed runs, a druid is an interesting single target maximum threat option.

mages were strong at low gear curves, and absolutely get shit on at high gear curves when a paladin can oneshot you with a judgement and a single SoC proc, or a shaman purges everything you have and keeps you perma slowed with frost shock and trinkets out of you nova

don't get me wrong I think mage has plenty of uses and niches in pvp, but it is absolutely not what it was in later expansions.

so many of you have not played vanilla, clearly

I was a mage in Vanilla. Most shaman back then couldn't grounding or find their purge hotkey to save their lives. Who knows if that'll change this time around.

The problem with Druid main tanks is that the healers will probably hate every second of it

Druids were shit until tbc, at least hunters had relevant dps and arent relegated to combat rezzes and heals that are outclassed by priests and shamans

22
Played when I was 10-ish?
Never got to endgame before tbc or wrath so looking forward to being somewhat competent this time.

Mages are clearly not designed to 1v1 in PvP though, they have tons of AoE. Mages and Locks are absurdly strong in WPVP for that reason

frost mages are good at low gear, sub rogues are good if you are willing to blow all your cooldowns on classes that are strong against you, lock was better as demo imho than affliction, the damage reduction keeps you alive longer. When I was a rank 14 warrior I would shit on affliction warlocks and kill them long before their dots would kill me (berserker rage, wotf), versus a demo lock was pretty hard to deal with if played correctly

hunter was always very solid at pvp if played right

Not that it really matters, only tryhards min-max races. Just play what you like.

>not wanting to be a regular dude that can beat legendary monsters
Human is the most patrician fantasy race choice except when you can play as an undead instead, like in this game

wow how creative
play as a regular human or as a corpse of a regular human

Yes, of course!
How do you do fellow humans?
Human is the right choice for me because I am totally a human being.

Human is the peak aesthetics of Warcraft, followed closely by dwarves and thereafter a power gap behind which are elves and beneath which lay another massive power gap where underneath you'll find every other race's aesthetics

You sound like you chuff homo hormones.

Durotar is one of my favorite starting zones, up there with Elwynn. That being said, it's mostly nostalgia and just because I've leveled there on so many alts so I never feel lost while leveling there. Some zones I get tired of, but even though I've done Durotar-Barrens dozens of times, I still enjoy leveling through each of them.

>Human is the peak aesthetics of Warcraft
They all look like massive faggots

Barrens is great. Only good thing about Durotar is that it's close to Barrens, nothing else
>looks like absolute shit
>both orc and troll starting zones are cancer

Yes, you're the one who thinks a guy with pink rose gauges and a tumblrina nosering looks "like a cool dude" but I'm gay!

Goddamn, i love noname55s warcraft animations.

Literal buff bot to the point solo actions or "dps" is just self buffing and waiting.

It is ironic that healing is when the class is most interesting as you actually press buttons yet you have all these people saying they want to go ret.

The problem with the horde is that blizzard didn't do shit with horde racial aesthetics. For example, Orcs are great with the whole honorbound warrior society, I can get behind that. Mongols have comfy lore and all they do is nomad around without a home and fuck shit up and be honor incarnate. But Mongols have architecture. Atmosphere. Orcs talk about tradition, but they have zero physical manifestations of tradition around which to congregate. Orc aesthetics are mud huts. Theresa reason sitting in an alliance tavern is fucking cozy, and sitting in a horde Inn is just a pile of rocks with som African drums twiddling around aimlessly. Alliance is fortunate because betwee elves humans and dwarves you can plug and chug as much Tolkien and European fantasy as you want. With Tauren, Trolls, and Orcs it's all just shit loosely based on a handful of cultural tropes. Tauren are native. Trolls are oceanic. Orcs are nothing. Undead piggyback off humans with zombie goo to differentiate them.

Horde got fucked on aesthetics, not to mention armor models on beast races. Catch me shit talking some dwarf in old town, blessed by the god damn light.

And virtually non-existent. You'll get a spot just to innervate and soak up gear so it doesn't get sharded.

Female is only worth picking if there are clothing options worth a damn, and if the races are cute. In FF14, Lalas and Catsluts are worth picking an F race and you have glamours as well

In WoW classic you get a mixture of gear and can't use glamours... and the females are ugly as fuck so

>females are ugly
stop being in denial

Orcs and Tauren look the most kino out of any race in plate gear. I agree that the stretched textures on trolls look pretty dumb though. Nitpicking about the toes is pretty autistic though.

Paladin or Priest. Paladins are strong healers and fucking braindead (you literally have one heal spell and like 400 safety nets). Priests are more versatile and pretty much the strongest healer in the game.

Only consider Druid or Shaman if you're ready to be yelled that. Druids are weak and inefficient healers without a fucking rez, Shamans are strong but have horrible mana efficiency and go OoM constantly. And so help you god if you try to level as enhance, nothing makes warriors madder than having to share 2handers with Shamans. Expect to be rejected from dungeon groups all the time if anything in there drops a good 2h axe or mace. You're better off just leveling ele if only to get dungeons more easily.

Don't count on being able to switch to DPS unless you make some good friends that are willing to put up with bringing along meme-specs, especially after you prove yourself willing to heal.

Wait which quests? I never played vanilla.

They are in WoW. The models are just ugly in that game. It's still a good game otherwise

What are you talking about, solo, group? Spriest is definitely much higher solo but not good in a group (rogue to a lesser extent to)

You're right about the autism, its why I mind undead the least. I just wish they'd put more into horde races in terms of architecture and space, squatting in tents that have different flavors of "native" beads and spikes on them always seemed phoned in to me

So ranged were basically gods on this game vanilla right. Only Warrior was a worthwhile melee DPS

I guess Rogue was good.... for PvP only.... until everyone gets anti-stealth trinkets

They are good tanks in 5-mans.

They can't really tank that well in raids.

They can't get as much Defense skill as Warriors so they get crit more
Their only mitigation is dodging, no block or parry
Because of this the damage they take is extremely spikey. They're doable in dungeons but every healer will want to strangle you if you insist on main tanking in a raid.

great in dungeons
mainly off tanks in raids
but the true vanilla secret is that being a good player thats active in your guild lets you get away with less than optimal picks,it doesn't really matter unless you are in try hard server first sperg guild

Druids can't get the magic 102.4% avoidance needed to become immune to crushing blows. Means anything "boss" leveled will tear them a new one. Other than that they're fine. Weak on AoE threat, but this is vanilla, all tanks are bad at that.

Right but wrong. Druids can stack enough defense skill for crit immunity. They can parry. What they're lacking is block, which means they can't push normal hits off the attack table, which means crushing blows. Anything 3+ levels higher, or a skull level, kills bears dead.

They're the worst Vanilla tank but you are valued for your versatility, ie the ability to shift into a cat and DPS when you're not needed to offtank and to cast innervate (though iirc that didn't happen until innervate became a baseline skill in late Vanilla).

They can tank dungeons just fine, but raids are a different beast.

Honestly don't even get why people flip their shit over what role they play in raids, because EVERYONE except the main tank is pigeonholed into a simplistic role for no reason regardless.

What's the most hipster race/class choice on Horde? By hipster I mean what's going to probably be the least played.

anything fem troll

female troll anything

Tauren Hunter, Human Warlock

fem anything that isn't undead + least played class

>playing a race whose sheathed weapon graphic shrinks by 20% compare to unsheathed
It's so distracting, having a sick hammer that shrinks to a toothpick on your back. Otherwise you're right.

>F Tauren
Ugly as sin, its face is like a whole 5 polygons
>F Troll
Enjoy looking like literally every other troll because they've got one good looking face and one good looking hairstyle.

Female NE and female undead are objectively the best looking vanilla race models. All the males are pretty shitty looking, but male NE and male undead are alright.

Fem Tauren or fem orc. Fem trolls have a "hot" face and so ethots who want to play horde usually pick that or undead. Fem tauren and orc are hipster tier

No.

FFXI is currently holding a free week for previous customers if you bought the game in the past and need a classic MMO to tide you over for a little bit.

now I'm even considering rogue. The CC in dungeons for my friend group seems really appealing.

I'm used to ranged so I'm sure melee in the Mexican standoffs in world PVP will take some getting used to, but it would be a nice change of pace.

becayse you need to ignore not only his channel but also the 50+ fan made BEST OF FAGMONGOLD EPIC COMPILATION channels

Sap is really bad unless you spec into it then it's less bad.

I don't need to validate myself to you I just corrected your false assumption

SL is for duels. I don't think it's great in groups because your damage is not... great. You can be ignored until last; some people like that beefiness.

I prefer the spec that does damage and can be used in PVE as well, personally.

The closest thing to Vanilla WoW is probably old MMOs or CRPGs. Maybe try playing Neverwinter Nights or Divinity Original Sin.

Is it not part of the cookie cutter PVE build?

lol

Complete opposite, sap is in the pvp tree (sub). Fairly deep, too.

I get recommendations from a lot of different shit but somehow, SOMEHOW, I get thousands of Best of asmongold, asmongold react and watches, and I haven't seen any video of it, I have seen videos of Bajheera and Swifty, Sodapoppin, and I'm sure they have the same amount of fan channels as Asmonbald, yet is only this faggot that gets recommended to everyone, I have even been trying to watch a lot of clickbait wow videos from retards like Bellubar and Preach and still they don't get recommended

I don't like this either but that's why I'm rolling dwarf hunter, doesn't seem to happen on waist weapons or at least it's not as noticeable

sm/ruin falls short in pve because you need the corruption ticks for your instant cast shadowbolts, your raid leader most likely won't let you take up a debuff slot to use it

yeah, I don't get it either
might have something to do with there being like 4 fucking trillion channels so at least one is always on a crazy upwards trajectory or some shit

I always find it entertaining to see Hordefags explain their reasoning behind playing the wrong faction. I mean, let's face facts here.

Alliance content was developed first.
Alliance zone progression is more thoughtful and well designed, both in lore and geography.
Alliance in Vanilla has more historical inspiration behind it's faction goals and conflicts.
Every Alliance race/class combo makes sense in the lore.

3/4 of Alliance races have their capital/starting zone in proximity to Blackrock Mountain, the thematic endgame of Warcraft 2 and the Second War for Azeroth, and also suitably the beginning of WoW's end content. Each time you fly north or south by gryphon, you witness the vast Burning Steppes and Searing Gorge which stretch around the volcano that the Old Horde made their stand at all those years ago. As a young and inexperienced adventurer, you look down at the menacing wyverns, flaming elementals and nefarious warlock shrines and wonder when you will get to go there, and what mysteries dwell in the heart of Blackrock.

I played a Belf Warlock at the beginning of Wrath and then switched to a DK, which I mained throughout Wrath. I wanted to do a mage for the teliports and food/drink, but I love healing and I get to DPS when I want to on a priest.

Consensus on both my servers back in the day was VC. I remember looking for a group in westfall and saying DM, immediately being whispered by someone who was like hey FYI DM typically means Dire Maul, which is a luv 60 place. Deadmines goes by VC to avoid confusion.

Nice guy.

>2008
Not classic and still retarded

Also, Dire Maul didn't even exist when the game launched. Guess what everyone called Dead Mines?

This must have been a cultural thing, because it was always DM on my server.

This is an acronym I haven't read in many years

Fucking cata

Male undead mage or warlock, my first character was a lock but he never saw further than 22 and the character I did make it to 60 right before tbc with was my undead warrior. Really torn because since then I've loved mage forever but I feel like a second chance to give that lock a shot is the right choice since the poor guy never had a chance to shine. As for undead I don't care if I'm considered "edgy" for picking them, I've loved them since W3 when I was 10

literally everyone said VC what are you smoking?

You just learn to deal with it. The evenings in the desert are beautiful. I grew up here so I just learned to love the desert in the summer/winter. Flaggstaff is beautiful too. I did go to Tennessee to see my grandma and it is absolutely gorgeous with the rolling green hills and massive trees everywhere.

You know vanilla released in 2004 right, lilzoom? 2008 was one year into TBC.

What is your personal best levelling speed?

You don't NEED a taunt if your group isn't retarded. You don't remember much about having to wait a bit for threat generation do you?

Click buff totems, keybind pvp totems.

No one's ever needed to drop strength of earth on the fly, but you want poison cleanse and grounding etc down asap.

you never raided BWL or Onyxia. Prot Pally was fucking amazing

>Tfw cant play dark iron slaughtering orcs and br*nzebeards

I kind of want to roll a troll shaman because it sounds like fun and I want to be able to get into dungeons quickly. Will I be able to level while specced for healing? How are shamans as healers in vanilla?

Look to be totally honest they are not so bad that they are unusable but if you want to tank just go warrior save yourself the headache and stress. Druids have get weird ass out of the way gear and conpete with hunters for them. Correct me if im wrong isnt the only way for them to tank in AQ and naxx is by grinding a weapon from gnomeragan that breaks after 3 uses? I hear feral dps isnt bad though if you get the wolfheart helm and grind that same weapon

>What will you roll
Warrior
>and why will you do so?
Because I'm not a fag

>Will I be able to level while specced for healing?

Yes, this isn't retail. You play a class, not a spec

I want to roll a Mage because I can be independent but also consider Warrior tank so I can set the rules for my groups.
The downside of the Warrior is that I can no longer solo shit or engage meaningful in PVP without respeccing everytime.

I'm just going to try three classes and whichever I play/enjoy the most will be the one I level to 60

>until everyone gets anti-stealth trinkets
??

How were shamans in classic? Thinking about picking them.

They heal, they zap people, they RNG one shot people with their big mace.

bad, don't

I know the old ret iterations get mocked a lot, but there's something about them that just feels right.
Nu-ret is basically just another warrior

You nailed it

>still no beta invite
>have a classic account

feels bad how many people here got into the beta?

If you're not an "influencer" (gigantic faggot streamer shill retard to be exact) then chances are pretty low that you'll get a beta invite in the first wave.

Why user why did "influencer" marketing became a thing? Instead of making good games west cuck developer would rather use the money on influencers.

In pve shaman healers are one of the best if not the best they provide the best utility out of any class to such a point that people want one in every group and will take them over priests. They have the only form of aoe heal and make druid healers irrelevent with manatide totem. In

In pvp alot of the same stuff applies but things are more balenced between priest, shaman and paladin. Shamans are still great for their bulkiness and totems

It's cheap and easy marketing. They throw some keys to those "people" and they handle that company's marketing for free.

Don't spec for healing while leveling unless you're a paladin, heal specs are worthless for soloing and wearing an int set is more than enough to heal.

Go enhance, or ele.

Priest. I'm leaning more towards Alliance even though I originally played Horde in vanilla. I was also thinking dwarf but I hate the fact that most priests are also going to be dwarves. I might just be human or nightelf to be different.

Alliance priest can be hell though, with all the undead

>one retard on the forum called it that, that means everyone called DM vc

Zoom zoom

They were actual bulky defensive units who aimed to outlast you. I mean now all classes die more or less as easily as the next.

The only thing i truly feared was a druid. Usually a stalemate. Locks were scary in vanilla pvp too

I don't really concern myself with the ins and outs. As long as I can do most of the content pretty comfortably then what one races advantages have over another don't really concern me. There's plenty more balance issues in vanilla than just racials/faction imbalance.

COPE

but he is right you retard. i played vanilla on both eu and us servers from the very start of beta and it was always VC because nobody abbrevated dungeons really before dire maul was released, i think its you whos the zoomer, baby boy

Shaman healing is okay. Early on (like healing RFC and SFK) they're on the weak side since you'll not have very much int gear and shaman spells are very mana inefficient, but things pick up once you have a good set and MP5 gear starts showing up. Shaman totems also are great buffs and they're usually fairly wanted in groups, especially after getting WF totem.

Don't level as a healing spec. That goes for any hybrid (except paladins where all three trees are equally shit and dont matter) most of the time you'll be on your own killing shit and heal trees never have good killing talents. Go enhancement or ele to actually kill shit, just wearing an int set is enough to be able to heal a dungeon until you start getting to endgame shit like DM or ST.

>I want to be able to get into dungeons quickly
The one thing to consider is that if you're enhance, warrior tanks usually avoid shamans if they think they have to share melee gear and weapons with them, when it would be just as easy for them to get a priest or druid. Like get fucked if you want to run RFK, Armory or Uldaman. Whenever I'd roll a shaman I'd prefer ele purely so I don't have to deal with warrior tanks and just steal gear from pages and warlocks instead (plus you only use one gear set)

I was thinking a shaman because of horde Pride. I was also thinking of going to the server that asmongold it's going to play. I would have started streaming to and maybe with the server with more streamers on it I'll get more

>I'm going to play [non-viable obscure spec]!

no you're not.

>tfw full time job so can’t no life classic.

>telling other people what they play and what not

Every optimized raid/guild should have at least one feral tank.

Practicality of rolling a fury warrior either dual wield or 2h?

Druids are the best tank mechanically
They can't hit def cap so they're worthless on raid bosses that aren't on farm on alt night.

i recently picked up wow again after many years of hiatus (i played vanilla and a bit of wotlk) and decided to give RP servers a try this time around since there are no pvp/pve servers anymore. argent dawn EU, and it feels more nostalgic than wotlk. roleplayers everywhere putting life into the game world by organizing wpvp events, guild events and sporadic rp all over the map. people chat me up casually all the time and its amazing. back then this only happend when people wanted to group which ws forced, this interactions arent forced at all, these people WANT to talk to me. absolutely amazed and im going to roll 100% on an classic rp server now (i hope there will be a rp-pvp server)

If this was retail I wouldn't because everything is viable.

Arms is better for leveling but fury is fine too. Don't dual wield you'll just miss constantly, use a 2H.

in vanlla everything was "viable too" if you dont care about +/- 5% damage. look at retail parses and you see the same thing. heck even some races still perform way better than others because of racials in retail

UD lock

>Always useful
>Easyish to level
>Less populated than mages
>More fun than hunters

either undead warlock or undead rogue to troll all the gay ass alliance players

Dual wield fury is great on either faction, 2H fury is great on horde only.

>If this was retail I wouldn't because everything is viable.
>did not play shaman prot warrior or shadow priest on bfa release
yea sure retail cuck.

can you make this discord friendly?

she's not there to fight, she's only there for relief

Thanks for the link. Although all the data is based on private server data with scuffed armor values (and rage generation?) I suppose?

DRG and jumps are fun.

do you have an active sub?
only one person out of all my online friends, who was still playing wow, got invited

i remember drg just as 123456, do you really enjoy that kind of rotation?

Reminder that there is only one classic streamer worth watching and it's twitch.tv/joana

play on an RP server. people will chat you up and try to make friends with you.

I'm rolling a dwarf priest. Super easy leveling, fairly easy to find a dungeon running group, superior healing, top-tier raid viability (not that I plan on raiding very seriously), and crazy good PvP potential

>ctrl+f
>48 warriors

WoW is a glorified wack a mole (hit all your procs that pop) and I prefer the steady combo flow of XIV which gets difficult when trying to also dodge mechanics and plan your burst phases accordingly so yes.

>You don't NEED a taunt if your group isn't retarded. You don't remember much about having to wait a bit for threat generation do you?
that's exactly the problem though. people are so used to facerolling dungeons it's going to be an absolute nightmare as a tank to re-train every dumb nigger you roll with.

>Easyish to level
they're straight up easy

leveling a priest solo is fucking mind numbing
t. leveled a priest in vanilla to 59

this it's honestly hilarious. literal free advertising to hundreds of thousands of people

cant wait for blizz to make finally some class changes. having 80% shitty endgame speccs was just no fun.

guess i need more ZEN in my gaming flow to be able to enjoy that kind of thing
