Mages can kite, Warlocks can leech, Priests can heal.

And Warriors need to bandage after every pull.

Fights are over so quickly that very limited regen doesn't really enter the equation, oomkins and the like just have to pot but that's pretty much it. That's supposing we're talking about group PvE context: in regards to solo leveling manaless classes (ie. warriors/rogues) have some of the worst downtime and the time they spend eating or bandaging more than compensates for time some mana-users spend drinking, which isn't necessarily much time spent at all.

And if we are discussing group PvP, it's worth pointing out that melee (ie. classes that don't use mana) are pretty much inherently handicapped having to chase mobs and run away from more mechanics (-> lower DPS uptime). This isn't very relevant in most T1 fight (or even most of vanilla), but when you start seeing fights with mechanics, melee are very much handicapped.

>mana regeneration doesn't exist
It does but you don't get it to a significant degree until your in full epics even more so in BWL onward. Also it depends on the fight. Just look at Rag Mages typically dominate DPS in that fight because melee constantly need to back out and they get AoE DPS on the adds. Every mana using class besides hunter has a way to regenerate mana in combat Pallys practically have infinite mana in later gear once they get a lot of spell crit.

are moonkins actually viable?

they were my favorite dudes to raid with (BC/WOTLK/Cata) but always seemed to struggle
truly a blessed creature, we always did the DI into BattleRez combo when the raid was over, it brings good luck

>Level with a warrior
>Heal his ass
>Only one who has down time is me, cuz I have to drink
Yeah it's so hard to be a warrior. This is why 1/3 of the players are warriors.

They are "viable" as in "capable of carrying their weight" (ie. if everyone in the raid was performing at that level, content would still be doable).

However, that's because vanilla content is trivial in terms of tuning. The gap between balance and useful specs is a wide gulf, and unlike TBC where their utility is seriously buffed, they really are just Bad Mages.

Healers are balanced around being limited by their Mana in groups.
Warriors either need to wait on their healer or bandage/eat after every pull.

People will want one for the crit aura.
It's also fun blowing up stinky horde as a giant owlbear.

As it should be. Man the fuck up and get into melee, son.

Imagine being a mage, playing the game on EZ mode, and STILL complaining that you aren't the absolute best in every way.

If mage is EZ mode then what are warlocks and hunters?

Poor little warriors have to wait and not spend money on food. While I not only have to wait 30 seconds, but spend my money on drinks. It's so sad. I bet they are not even the top dps in raids, oh wait.

No they don't. You don't "want" moonkins even in TBC where their personal DPS is closer to par, crit aura is 5% rather than 3%, they also bring +3% melee hit, can actually use insect swarm to reduce mob hit chance, and have more mana to spend thanks to Dreamstate and new regen formula (ie. less need to innervate themselves, mana that can be used for CR). But in that case they're at least close to +-0 overall contribution compared to taking another mage/lock in their place: in vanilla they're just trivially bad.

They can do crazy damage but get oom really fast. Oomkin isnt actually a meme.

Vanilla content can be cleared with less than 40 people wearing greens.

The short answer is they suck, the long answer is you can probably find a raid group and be liked for the spell crit aura, but if you just want to do damage then play a real spec. Literally feral DPS is superior to that garbage.

Warlock is second place. All hunters do well at is leveling and farming mobs, but mages still kick their ass in this department. Really, nothing can compare to a frost mage in vanilla.

>Imagine being a mage, playing the game on EZ mode, and STILL complaining that you aren't the absolute best in every way.
What are some hard classes to play, genuinely curious.

What is your point exactly?
Warriors do top damage once fully geared, everybody knows that.
My point is they have other shortcomings.

My point that this game is that Classic is imbalanced and warriors should be nerfed.

Why should they be nerfed?

There aren't any really hard classes but most classes in the game will falter at performing in most areas. Warriors suck to level up, same with rogues, and they both lack utility. Hunters have tougher PvE rotations and 1v1 PvP can be a stress with the deadzone and limited CC. Paladins and Shamans are also constantly playing second fiddle to everyone else outside of healing.

Because they excel at everything.

meanwhile the warlock version has a use that heals your pet

They really don't.
They excel at single target damage or tanking. No sustain, no AoE, no CC, no utility...

Disable error speech.

I want to grind out my Human Warrior just so I can hear more of "I need a target". Whoever did the human male speech is a fucking god of hamming it up.

>you now remember the whining of your Blood Elf male paladin

All classes are gear dependent...

Compare a warrior tank in pre raid blues to a bear and there's no comparison. Some classes scale better with gear than others which is why warlocks have a slow start and become gods later, same with warriors. Classes like hunters and druids don't need gear as badly because their scaling sucks.

Actually, pre-raid BiS warriors are (slightly) more durable than bears, although bear threat is always superior so they're not strictly better. T1 raids happen to have some good gear for bears however so T1 BiS actually makes bears more durable in addition to maintaining their threat lead.

excuse me user, warlocks are gods from the moment they get their Imp

Why are you playing with a shit warrior? Then again it's not your fault, 90% of warriors in this game are complete shitters who don't use range weapons, keep potions, or even level cooking/first aid.

The meme of warrior being hard to level only exists because of retards who charge at mob packs of 10 enemies are the only type of people who play the class.

Fuck off back to retail kid

>be mage
>get fire damage gloves and pants
>throw fucking bomb fireballs

Warlocks problem is they have 0 hit until 2 tiers in meanwhile mages can just spec into hit. They still never outclass mages they just come close enough that the best warlocks with the shadow debuff from priests can compete with an average mage.

Are you really this fucking stupid? You clearly have no clue what it's like to level in classic as a warrior with no fucking healer.

Mages and Warlocks dont use mana?
get lost retail tranny.

If you ever see this shit you should probably quit rogue coz you clearly cant manage your energy and just trying to do mongo rotation without thinking.

>Classes like (...) druids don't need gear as badly because their scaling sucks.
For druids, especially for tanking, it's more that raid itemization sucks for them, their scaling is so stupid high that blue items from level 55 dungeons can be better than most stuff in AQ40. That stupid high scaling is also the reason why they are better at tanking early raid content, because they scale insanely hard on mere blue items as long as it fits them.

You're retarded
Mages get like 45% mana regeneration during combat with mage armor and talents, plus clearcasting
Warlocks never should run out of mana because of life tap

Rogues killing people while naked is gear dependent? Mages topping all meters until extremely lategame by hitting one button is gear dependent?

Playing on an RP server is so comfy, lads. My Orc Shaman stumbled upon two Undead hobos /sleep-ing in the middle of the road at Crossroads the absolute madmen, and lost his shit. It caused a whole commotion to break out. It was really silly, but fun.

I’m presuming that guy was RP-ing as a guy who foresaw the events of Cataclysm? Bonus points if he was preaching in Camp Taurajo.

Any lock which taps without bandaging is a retail retard anyway

I always have a renew up on the locks I group with less down time more dmg

Which of these 3 is most fun?
Druid, Hunter or Shaman.
Friend wants to play and would team up with him. No idea what class he will play.

Nope, middle of oggrimar

*pops soulstone*
*continues tapping*

Both shaman and druid are a lot of fun because they allow for four different gameplay styles: healing, tanking, melee and caster dps. I personally prefer shamans because all the totems
Hunter has only one gameplay that can get boringly monotonous but the pet management is a fun addition

Whatever the class, there is no fun to be had whatsoever in raids

>Like getting immersed with my character

Shaman can easily tank dungeons during leveling, which is the only part in WoW worth a damn.

I personally think WF and enhacement is overrated as sin. Go elemental once you reach 40 and you won't regret it

why elemental once you hit 40? what changes

hunters are unironically the hardest class to play in vanilla.

youtu.be/M0RwCvqNJgg

You can do some simple ones like in the video here. The uploader is just a low level Troll reporter and there’s also an Orc RPing as a lowly peon. Take the plunge, it’s worth it user

It's probably a lot more fun than gambling on windfury. It sucks dick to autoattack and get zero procs then finally get one when the mob is almost dead.

Elemental has the problem of requiring all the talents to make lightning work. Technically you can respec previous to 40, but since you need to have all the appropriate talents of the tree first then its a good mark

it exists. Though I agree that mp5 is a shit system
spirit should work in combat so a caster would have to balance spirit and spellpower gear

Best feeling. I already got Lionheart helm for my warrior and now I can rest easy knowing I will never find a better helm.

What this user said. He beat me to it.

You could argue that you could respec at 39 instead of 40 since elemental mastery (level 40 talent) is more of an icing on the cake and isnt even taken in the cookie cutter ele build at 60

This, so much this

I've died several times just because windfury just fucking refused to proc. That's what bad luck does. Stonebitter was more consistent but still the fights took too long.
When I realized that by throwing lightning I finished mobs in half the time I was so fucking glad. I also have no clue of where the "enjoy drinking aftwr every fight!" Meme comes from, since I'm actually drinking less than when I was ENH because as an ENH I still had to spam inefficient shocks to not get killed

>make 20 classes
>4 of them are viable
Why do devs do this?
>Here guys, you can work a 1 hour day and we'll pay you $300 for the hour or you can work a 12 hour day and we'll pay you $10 an hour, but you get to wear this cool cape while you work.

Elem Mastery has more value while leveling than in dungeons/raids because the natural downtime while traveling makes its cooldown less impactful, and the insane burst it provides lets you quickly clear out a larger pack of mobs.

The meme of warrior being hard to level is about trying not to be bored. who the fuck wants to level a class that mostly auto attacks because of rage starvation at low levels?

All of them are viable. You are just a fucking noob who thinks himself clever for choking on the min max meta faggotry without even trying to understand the game

Oh definitely. I didn't mean that you should pass up elem mastery and go straight to resto just to save a respec fee at 60. I was just being tired and autistic. lol

what's the appropriate talent build for ele then?

Stupidest shit, senpai, elementals in dungeons are great and the downtime meme is stupidly exaggerated. At the very most you drink as often as the healer.

??????????????

Ret, Prot (paladin), Enhance, Elemental, Balance, Feral, Shadow, and Survival would all like a word with you.
And no, bringing a token 1 person of the above specs for xyz aura or to swing nightfall does not count as viable.

Everything is viable as long as you're in a chill guild. You can 5-man raids anyway and there are optimized guides for every spec.

classic.wowhead.com/talent-calc/shaman/550031050302151

The only actual useless specs in vanilla is balance and ele. Everything else is able to perform. Just because you saw some faggot minmax article stating ret has the lowest dps because he’s missing world buff #473 doesn’t mean it’s not viable

This is a good example. Just note that those 3 points put into the call of flame are flexible. some opt for elemental warding, improved fire totems, reverberation, or even earths grasp for that extra yard radius for earth bind

Why are Vanilla hunters so based bros?

Even then
>ele useless

I've also seen elementals and balance pulling their weight in raids. Specially in ZG and AQ25. But I recommend against them because they are fucking boring, not because they are not viable

It isn't viable to play as.

Raids are the end-game. Viability is determined by ability to do end game stuff. This is not arguable nor contestable, deal with it.

Ret is only barely viable in an extremely specific spelldamage build with fucking ironfoe.
Prot is completely nonviable because it can't reach uncrittable and it has no taunt and it relies on mana.
Feral DPS is dogshit compared to rogue.
Bear is only illusory 'viable' because of inflated HP values in extremely easy content like MC/Ony. They're useless past that.
Shadow does half the dps of a warlock and literally only one is brought to amplify warlock damages and maybe as a mana battery.

do you have to sacrifice the leveling experience to heal dungeons? i ask because leveling as a healer spec is fucking torture

You're autistic

Ah yes, you speak like a fucking faggot who has surely reads dozens of guides and has yet to play the fucking game himself

Congratulations, now fuck off kindly

>It isn't viable to play as

I dunno I'm pretty sure the point of survival is to survive encounters. With 25% chance to avoid damage you're constantly shitting out counters and mongoose bites while tanking 2+ mobs while having your bear tank another 2 mobs. Plus you can always assist your bear with arcane shot since it will be out of your deadzone. Explain to me how it's not viable outside >muh group content. I've already said it's for levelling, which is 80% of the game.

Dont be retarded. You can heal dungeons as any spec. I really fucking hate those "shaman dps lfg" idiots who think they can't be healer as enh or elemental. Same goes for the other healing classes

Nope I just know the reality of the game.

Played real vanilla, and played private servers for years. I know how vanilla works. You're just ignorant or hopeful I'll be wrong when you finally reach max level. I'm trying to warn you before hand but if you want to ignore me go right ahead. You will not be viable and no guild will want to invite you.

i've only tried it early on when i had no talents in resto and it was hell. 3 heals and I'd go OOM, that's why I'm asking.

He is retarded, your post is futile

>muh private servers

>I-IT'S JUST MC THAT'S EASY THE OTHER RAIDS ARE DEFINITELY GOING TO REQUIRE 40 MINMAXERS TO BEAT
Just stop this retardation now and save yourself the embarrassment.

Leveling is not end game content.
Leveling is not the determination of viability.
Also the point of hunter is to do ranged DPS. Survival cannot do that in appreciable numbers.

No you can't. If you are running around in strength gear you sure as fuck cannot heal dungeons; you will go OOM after 3 casts.

Imagine having this shitty of a personality

>nothing special for an epic, stat-wise
>stats are better than everything that drops in mc, bwl or zg

I have no fucking idea of how make macros, absolutely fucking zero at all.

I have no macros at all and people keep telling me that as a shaman I should. Can anyone just copy paste theirs to me so that I can use them?

Now comes a big one. Do you have Shadoweave set? This is must have for all Warlocks. You need it for big shadow damage.

Do you use Void or Succubus?

I Highly recommend making a global Macro for Void's Sacrifice and Succubus's Seduce.

Heres your rotation. Fear > Immolation > Fear (If Immolation breaks it) > Corruption > Curse of Agony (Exhaust, Tongues) > Siphon Life.
Now at this point you just spam fear use Death Coil only as short term CC like Warrior gets melee at you Coil him. Or you get stunlocked by rogue use Coil and fear. Also use Drain Life, Wand depending which one makes more DPS faster. Use Shadow Bolt only if hes like 30-15 yards away and its safe to cast it during hes feared.

most macros are meme shit like heal on mouse hover. completely optional garbage. i personally dont use any

>Do you have Shadoweave set?
no, haven't even started with it mostly because I'm kinda poor and didn't even get my Tailoring up, I'm at 186 now and I think first piece is at 200 or 210.
Also I was suggested to get the 3 pieces of Dreamweave set instead of the appropriate shadoweave set, do you reckon they're right and it's better?
Man up until now I didn't really have a way to go farm mageweave cloth, but I think I'll try it in those humanoid camps near feralas horde camp

still BiS until ZG

also yea
>I Highly recommend making a global Macro for Void's Sacrifice and Succubus's Seduce.
I have bound all pet ability to mouse buttons so I just put the useful ones (like sacrifice, spell lock, charm) on the same slot and that works good enough I guess
>do you use void or succubus
I should be using succubus for leveling I think since I don't have imp Voidwalker but I've been using felhunter for a while now for some reason, think I just wanted to try him out and forgot to change it

Dreamve = More Expesinve, Les Spellpower but more stats
>Shadoweave = Less Expensive (Shadow Silk can be farmed in Dustwallow Spiders all of them) High Shadow Spellpower but less stats.

but how do I deal with the spell knockback effect from faggots attacking me? basically impossible to cast anything

only need 1 or 2 tanks
90% of warrs are dps warrs + tanking is pointless in this game because everything is so easy

>Les Spellpower but more stats
how does that work?
Like what is the correlation between "Shadow damage" and "Spell power"?
Because, for example, Shadowweave gloves have 17 shadow damage while Dreamweave gloves have 18 spell damage, so what does that translate to? How do you determine which is better?

Each Shadow Spell power is excatly as Spellpower but only for Shadow school of magic.
Spellpower is most important stats any Caster will ever need. It's a flat out damage boost to your class not only that it also increase like healing from Siphon Life and u get more mana from Life Pact with higher Spellpower. So it is the most important thing you want. I recommend pumping stamina items ever ones with str or agi in to your rings, necks or capes so you get surviability with stamina

ah okay that;s what I thought, so in this case the Dreamweave gloves would be better than the Shadowweave ones.
I do agree they seem a lot more expensive because of fucking wildvines, but I think I have some just enough for at least one piece
Still debating whether I should just go buy all this cloth or go farm it and hope I get some exp out of it

You definitely want a tank for things post-SM, but any tanking class will do. If every mob is attacking one person then that lets the healer be more mana efficient, and thus reduces downtime.

Warriors are one of the fastest classes to level if you are good, there was some private server vids awhile back that shows some warriors kiting multiple mobs between weapon swings.

warlocks are high skillcap in PvP. You don't actually think PvE takes skill, right?

FP are literally the worst shit ever in classic

Even worse is when they heal you with Power Word: Shield just before you pull.

yeah good luck with that

now where have i heard this before

Vanilla endgame content is severely undertuned. The only reason why raids took so long to world first clear back in the day is because of artificial roadblocks. Seriously, look it up, every single boss was killed pretty quickly and the only exceptions were bugged bosses and shit like 4 horsemen.

I can’t play games like this anymore. They feel like a complete waste of time when I don't get anything tangible from them. I'd rather practice guitar or something I can impress people with. Makes me sad bros, I miss the comfy days of not giving a fuck and letting the hours slip away immersed in the world

The boggest boost to ele is at 39 you get a full second shaved off lightning bolt and chain lightning. Before that theres a lot of cool stuff that helps you cast gooder but that full second off feels so good. Also if you time it right you can get ele mastery to effect 2 spells instead of one

You already can. Graveyard is common for people to start with from 29, at 31 you may also do library, but depending on class you may miss a lot and get many resists, especially in the later parts, however if you're a healer there'll be no problem, and many groups would be fine with carrying you through library anyway.
If you're not a healer start with looking for GY, often the group will want to continue with library after and you'll be brought along. If you're a healer there'll be no problem going into library right away.
You may also get to heal the later parts at 31, but you should be very careful because you'll pull from great distance. The healing itself should go fine.

>mana battery
this isn’t tbc

warrior is the default class that everyone makes 1 of. almost none of those warriors make it past level 10 anyways so those numbers mean jack shit. mages are just objectively the best class in the game in every circumstance and in every way imaginable, so people think they're good if they pick one because the first 60 was an aoe spam mage and they think they'll be as good as he was

Anyone else enjoying playing casually, questing around, grouping with randoms, enjoying world pvp?

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't enjoy high level meta or instances or even gear. I just want to explore the world and such. Helps that this is the first time playing this I guess

I know there's nothing to explore in MMOs so not really.

Just show your panties to everyone

Based. They really are great. I went human female paladin, kind of regret it because their /silly is shit tier.

>waaaahhhh I can't play an ugly race because I'm an insecure turbofaggot
This is literally all alliance trannies

And yet I still see most non AoE dungeon groups still asking for caster DPS and tanks. I don't think the imbalance is nearly as bad as people here say except that maybe rogues are less popular than normal.

so you think people are leaving because the game will actually get good at some point?

There is a reason they've been called Oomkins since forever.

95% of horde players are undead female for that exact reason lmao. not a good defense for you

>Anyone else enjoying playing casually, questing around, grouping with randoms, enjoying world pvp?
I was one of the first players in on stalagg. Im still not 40 largely because Im going a more completionist route this time around with a partner for 100% of the journey. Its not the best xp going all over hells half acre to get every line done but I feel like Im seeing a lot more of the game than I did when I was twelve and spent 80% of level 40 in redridge fucking up alliance players

Are druids biggest jews of classic?

I haven't played WoW since shortly after Ulduar. All these Classic threads are making me want to try retail again. What have I missed?

>playing casually
This is a buzzword for poorly. No. I'm not mentally disabled like you and are able to live off of the government. I have a job so I try to make the most of my time in the game.

>questing around
For the XP, yes. The actual quest lines are so dull and shallow you can count the number of memorable quest chains on one hand.

>grouping with randoms
No. A miserable experience 7/10 times. Always have someone who sucks or some faggot being passive aggressive anytime one thing goes wrong or someone gets a piece of loot they wanted.

>enjoying world pvp?
No, layering killed this. Any time I pass by a hordefag they don't try to engage me in a fight and I usually have to be the aggressor. Then they're either shit tourists who don't know how to play or just stand there and /clap sarcastically instead of retaliating. I went to south shore and started ganking lowbies for an hour since I was bored and they got butthurt enough to report me and force a name change even though my name (Noobsmasher) wasn't even remotely offensive.

Hunters were literally designed to be the easiest class that anyone could pick up.

People 5 manned onyxia in vanilla. Pretty sure most raids can get along just fine with a few boomkin and elemental shamans.

BC and WotLK were peak WoW, we all know it

Stupid KFC nigger, horde LITERALLY AND ACTUALLY represents an edge evil faction for zoomer kids filled with weirdo races trannies associate themselves with.
Alliance on other hand consist explicitly of Aryan humans and amazon elfs joined by bro dwarfs and genious 300iq gnomes, white races which joined together to defend civilization against a threat of NOSHOES immigrants coming from another world.

Literally?

They cant die, they can't be slowed, infinite mobility. I really do hate druids.

N O S H O E S

Sure, you will pay me 500g per piece of loot I boost you for

Modern zoomers prefer horde because it's the edgy faction. The zoomers of the 2000's played Ally because they were human shaped.

I wish Alliance was a better alt right containment faction. It's fucking dumb when kids start deus vult larping as the Somali mudhut faction but I still see them doing it anyway.

You sound like every edgy teen guild on kronos. You couldn't pay me to raid with you.

what level? and what's your rotation

Assuming I don't care about the cost, should I just get Dreamweave over Shadoweave? It's only 3 less spellpower for +9 int and +7 spirit on the robes.

I also have +10 int, +5 stamina, and +6 spirit shoulderpads, are they actually worse than +7 stam +17 shadow damage shadoweave shoulders?

I feel like if I got full +shadow damage on most of my items, my other stats would be tanked too badly by hardly having any of it in any slot.

point being healing the pet is fucking useless, especially once you're DS/Ruin

The only stupid thing about leveling elemental is you have to wait so long to get your chain lightning/lightning bolt spell cast time reduced.

so what are the class demographics going to look like in a month or two? seems there are tons of mages and warriors and not that many rogues but there seems to be a lot more healers and almost no tanks this time around
i remember priest being gold because you could always find groups/loot at the drop of a hat and you were guaranteed a raid spot but now i'm not so sure

Why would I ever want to pay you for leeching of me? Are you mental?

>Heh, look at this kid thinking he's good enough to raid with my guild
>Sips caprese sun mixed with his parents cheap vodka

Switched at 40 and the go to has been lightning bolt to EM+CL while the bolt is traveling and ES/FS at the end of the CL cast depending on which bursts for more. Getting rhe drop on someone has regularly meant fighting someone with less than 1/4 of their health if they were at full

Nice made up RP Goldshire story, now please fuck off back to retail since nobody wants your stinky kind here.

I feel like the mana issues of balance/ele are blown out of proportion. Fights dont last as long as they did back in the day so you dont go oom much

Because numb nuts, vanilla is easy. Like I said earlier, people were 5 manning onyxia in vanilla and people have already cleared MC in greens and not everyone was 60. What is it with this retarded min-maxing meta you people insist on when it isn't even needed?

And no one likes tools who have to read a guide before they can make a decision.

>I should do less than everyone else and also get rewarded for it
Loot in vanilla is very limited, there's not a lot to go around. It wouldn't be fair to everyone else if you got the same loot despite doing less.

Priest is one of the comfiest and most fun classes to level, you can easily take out 3 mobs at once and you never have to eat/drink.

Wand spec is for autismos who can't enjoy the game unless they min-max as hard as possible. Just grab spirit tap and make your way down to mind flay. Every kill will get you about 35% of your mana back and mind flay is a very cost efficient spell.

If flasks aren't required, why are optimal builds to progress past trivial content required?

But they arent. You have to manage arrows and pet happiness and you have bag space taken up by a quiver.
Your pet is squishy and dies in a few hits.
They have no defensives for a ranged class and are easily dead-zoned
With spell batching you cant kite as effectively.
They do sub par aoe cleave compared to insane warlock and mage damage
You have to manage weapon swing timer to effectively weave in aimed and multi shots to maximize dps.
Aimed shot is your only effective damage skill and is nearly impossible to get off in pvp if a melee is on you or a caster ccs you/ deadzones you
Besides leveling, they are one of the harder classes to play/master.

do whatever you want nobody cares.

Me (arms warrior) and my buddy (holy priest) annihilated a multiboxer running druid/priest/mage/mage/mage today for stealing our quest mobs. We chain feared them and the multiboxer couldn't turn his dudes around fast enough to aim frostbolts at us. I'm sad that I didn't think to use my mind control hat to steal one of the mages and run it off a cliff though.

idk if tank spec is viable at all, I tanked ZF in ret spec (but it was kinda painful since DPS would outthreat me)
Holy: 10% str 10% intel, Consec
Ret: -15% mana costs, 5% parry chance, seal of command, 5% crit chance, then fairly straightforward talents. I think aura of retribution is what gets you the most value while leveling, so you might as well put 2 points in improved ret aura, and not put points in aura of sanctity

As a drawfag I can relate. Now that I’ve fallen behind my party is already pissed at me

>see a warrior on the road
>here, hold this Amplified CoE for a sec

Ain't this the truth. I am a tank and I constantly have to deal with brainlets AOEing instantly before I've gotten more than proximity aggro on the mobs. I'm hoping things will be easier when I respec prot (am tanking as arms currently) but I kinda doubt it.

Is it feasible to level as fury? Arms is fucking boring

And thus deserve getting their ass cursed

>boring
>charging into a group of mobs, hitting sweeping strikes, then blendering them with a ricocheting whirlwind is boring
Well, to each his own. Yeah, fury is fine for leveling, but don't dual wield -- your miss chance skyrockets. 2H fury is legit.

>5
Doubtful it seems arms with sweeping strikes is best.

Which is actually incredibly stupid since spell cost scales with level, so they will end up paying more for it.

I have the opposite problem. I'm playing a warrior and it took until level 25 or so before my brother realized "hey, maybe I should hit his target with my staff in between healing him!"

I was annoyed with my mana and then I found out life tap scales with shadow/spell dmg.

Suddenly it's the bitch healer's problem and I'm never oom

What level are you?

You mean spell levels? Dont they go down a bit with you gaining more rep?

The higher you level up the highest they cost, you are going to spend serveral golds for a level 20 spell if you purchase it at 60.

Yea really worth it for the crit bruh.

Primary benefit of Hunter is solo play and being the kings of farming.

Oh now I see what you mean. Instead of gradually spending money to level it up, they will have to spend them in one go

Yeah. I'm level 52 and tanked up to mara just fine as arms, so it's not like it's affecting my ability to do dungeons. I might go prot at 58 and just spend the last two levels farming brd/scholo/strat for gear for my priest and I though.

Don't tap yourself down to empty and you'll be fine.

Inefficient trash only good for killing fleeing mobs or when you get jumped by a shoenigger.

just spec dark pact and turn your pets skills off autocast, its like infinity mana

I was 2-handing Fury until around 39 when I finished RFD and all of SM to get 2 swords and I've been dual wielding since and am at 46 now. Anything at the same level as you or 2 levels above you should die easily enough and anything 3 levels is hard fought, but feasible. Anything higher you're going to die without pots just from missing so much though.

This is not true at all
There are classes that don't even scale off of gear like druid and hunter...

Just because they scale poorly doesn't meant they don't scale.

It proves you're a retard who has no idea what he's talking about though

This would be an instance of "git gud fag"

Both Arms and Fury are fine for leveling, it's all about keeping your weapons up to date. If you do that, just have fun and ignore autism.

Scaling worse doesn’t mean they don’t scale at all. Everyone does better with better gear.

Mages are the best dps by far atm, retard

First aid is worth it to get a better price on vendoring silk alone

I like first aud. Aside from the healing, it lets you consolidate cloth stacks into pure coin. With the leveling rush, vending bandages can be worth more than trying to sell cloth.

are there any normal fish that sell well or is it deviate and blackmouth?

i swear to god this has to be true, because that hamstring kiting shit on classic is fucking slow

Nightfin is probably the best, and if you cook it into the mana per 5 soup it’s big boi money. You just gatta fish past midnight

Hi guys I play a feral druid. Need a tank for instances? no? Ok Ill go cat form.. oh you need a healer? Yeah I can do that, let me just get some water and make a couple of mana potions. :^)

>Horde is meta
Nigga what? Horde has situationally good racials for solo PvP while leveling while Alliance is straight up better at everything end game because of paladins.

Based and pally pilled.

I'm playing on Elysium and I'm trying to have fun. But I'm not. keep dying on dumb quests, hard for the sake of buddying up but I have no friends to play with.

Horde is the carebear faction. They have better racials, better quest rewards, they have a protected leveling range of 1-25ish, superior flight points, more dungeons in their areas, teleporters to the alliance ones, and blizzards will imminently address problems if they are affecting the horde. So god forbid something be slightly better for the alliance.

pally is literally the chaddest class in the game because you're a jack of all trades no matter your spec BUT the buffs force you into every raid

Lmao paladin players are delusional

Not really. The 3% crit aura is not worth having a useless character. Owlbois suck until Wrath sadly. But don't fret, you're kinda useful in pvp in vanilla.

nice falseflagging

Ret Pallies have decent dps and are better LoH users since they arent as mana dependant as a healer. Also they are one of the only classes that actually uses a two-hander so your two-hander drops dont go to waste on a retard hunter.

imagine posting this unironically

PvE doesn't matter at all you absolute retard. That said they're high skillcap in PvP, but so are warlocks.

No it's the chadadins giving out the best buffs and raid utility, having consistent dps if played right and being the very best healers in the entire game.

You must think this because it's the only class you've tried to play seriously or something. Almost every class has swing timer shit they have to abuse to be the most effective in PvE.

Warriors hate you there for rolling on their stuff too so you either gotta find friends or start a group yourself.

As a Mage i disagree. When leveling many classes have it much better them. Mages have so much down time that their dungeon dps is awful. They just barely top the charts first pull then they strugle to keep up with the healer. Warlocks and priest just DoT and wand, shamans melee and druids cat. Of course theres other reasons to bring a mage poly, nova+blizz

>Get into BRD group on my hunter
>Hand Of Justice drops
>Need it
>wtf that's not for hunters
Find me another trinket then you mouthbreathing warrior retards

Shaman is better than paladin in pve though

I'm a dagger rogue so I wouldn't roll on their shit even if it was an upgrade, and I make sure to tell people that. Still impossible.

Ive seen lv 60 warlocks spawn infernals on the zepplins and it just picked of every lowbie one at a time before depawning

wanding and dotting doesn't do good damage and if the tank is an idiot multi-dotting just gets you aggro'd

Should have just waited for p2 to get a much better trinket. It's bis forever for warriors.
Not that I care, I'd never invite a hunter anyways.

Are you surprised that an old game has outdated mechanics, op?

Early on wandot does a fuck ton. Frostbolt spam does more but you run out of mana faster

What class are you playing? You shouldn’t need to constantly throw heals out. If you’re a priest you should have spirit tap, if you’re a shaman you should be auto attacking and only use a heal every few minutes, if you’re a Druid you should be soloing.

No, imbecile. Warriors have no hit sources. Compare to a mage who gets 9% spellhit from talents. Warriors need to hit to generate their resource, they will miss a lot before they get hit gear and thus have lower threat output/dps. Bears don’t use weapon skills and bear threat is multiplicative. Bears will generate much more threat while warriors are missing everything.

That’s what people mean by fear dependent.

Not really. One more mage will deal much more damage than having 4 mages crit more often and a useless always OOM moonkin.

>You have to manage weapon swing timer to effectively weave in aimed and multi shots to maximize dps.
Multishot is not affected by weapon swing timer. Aimed shot can easily be casted right after the autoshot comes out.

Granted yes, that is still harder than the average caster that only needs to press a single button, but not exactly hard to play.
Keeping your quiver or ammo pouch full isn't difficult as long as you're somewhat sentient and and feeding the pet once it stops being green is also easy.
Hunter gets interesting in BC where you actually needed to play around steady shot. Classic hunter is mainly just autoshot rotation with two abilities to cast every few seconds.

It's a bit slow with the mediocre damage output but I'm so fucking durable and I can tank or heal. Pretty good compromise if you ask me. Besides I like playing a support role, raw DPS isn't the only valid metric.

Yes, but at least you needed to properly time it and you lost DPS for every suboptimal tick.
Also, thanks to the removal of the retard debuff limit, they could also use serpent sting to multidot and multishot was still worth casting unless the fight was extremely long.

Shaman wanting ravager is equally retarded.

This shit is pathetic. This might come as a shock to you but your autistic minmaxing will never grant you anything in life. You're still an aimless unemployed loser. Your "guildies" aren't your friends, raiding isn't your job, wow isn't your life.

Ravager dropped on the second run and both the shaman and hunter rolled for it.

The shaman won.

What can shadows even do in classic?
Mindflay would take a debuff slot, same as SWP. So do they literally only case Mind Blast every 6 seconds and wand otherwise?

Blizzard's Vanilla class design is incredible. It's almost as if they didn't know the debuff limit was a thing. That should have been removed ASAP.
