i know Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid lost the password. I love any tricks you can offer me
i would say the same...but i thought about it. i realized that it isn't any harder now that i've seen this video. im just gaining more knowledge. my brain is growing in size. this decision is gonna come to fruition like a zit. just growing to a head. and BAM. i make a warrior just like when i started the game years ago. i had no choice.
Good video... I played warrior myself in classic and might make a return to that. Too bad I won't have my old gear ready for me at launch and have to redo it all. For what he said regarding fire mages and dps on Loatheb, check out my guilds Loatheb kill from a fire mage point of view: th-cam.com/video/Wu7O62A8EkQ/w-d-xo.html
I don't know what he's talking about with druids leveling fast. That was absolutely not the case in vanilla. I leveled a druid in vanilla and it was horrible. Feral was great for 1-30 but capped out and the dps actually went down with mobs having more armor and evasion. If that is WoW Classic or Private Servers it's not authentic.
At first I thought, man feeding someone else's dps sucks, however, raiding was all about completion and the raw "oh fuck yes we did it!" feeling. I'm cool with fuckin up a boss as a whole and not being top dps
Enhance/ ele shaman lvling should be fine. mana totem, self heals ... recycle.... no need for food / water.... just gotta make sure to do the totem quests =)
@@zigzagkill8153 true and earthbind totem is essential for enhancement. npcs attack faster than your 2h but with earthbind you can kite them and exchange a hit for a hit.
@@Fulgrim_The_Phoenician you forget the best part. Ghost wolf at 20, that shit is absolutely massive when you consider that its gonna take a couple weeks to hit 40. Shamans need to be top tier for leveling.
leveling is DEFINITELY 5 stars for locks. Voidwalker tank and dotting everything was great. Plus SSing yourself and healthstones plus draon life makes everything easy. Plus through talents they get a shit ton of stamina.
Man, ive seen any "witch class should i pick" videos, and this is the f*cking first i agree nearly all words in this. 10/10 work mate. And the best thing i understand nearly all words without youtube help with my poor English, how u talk i just understand without any problem. really rare :D
What to expect from each class. Warrior: You're gear starved all the time, unless you pickup blacksmithing and go through tedium of farming 1500 mithril and 2400 thorium. Up until about lvl30 every 5th swing with your weapon is a miss. If you want to make it easier for yourself tanking get the talent tactical mastery and then you charge and change to defensive stance and keep your rage, quite handy for the first dungeons. You'll be wanted all the time for tanking. Finding a raid guild you can both dps and tank. Most seasoned, hardcore guilds usually have dedicated (no life) officers who play the tanks, so even if you want to tank at lvl60 it is more of a chance really you're going to dps. Rogue: Levelling, you'll struggle to take down three mobs up until about lvl40. As for raid openings, its going to be as always the most played class so you're going to see some competition getting into raid groups as well as getting the pre-raid gear as most come from the lvl60 dungeons and 10-man raid. People usually play rogues for pvp servers so they can grief people levelling in redridge. Druid: Level with feral is very easy and with entangling roots you can solo several outside elites on your own. You should spec feral instinct first in the feral talent tree, it increases your threat and bear is a very viable tank in vanilla. For raids you will be mostly expected to heal. Some goofy guilds will take you in as a bear tank, but most just have ferals for dps. Boomkin is even more rare to see in raids. Hunter: Easiest character to level. You can kite dead elite mobs. You've got a very strong pet, spec beastmastery and you can kill most classes just by sending your pet on them up until lvl60. In raids there's always a slot for a few hunters as most bosses uses enrage and hunters gets a skill that dispels that. All around a nice utility dps class. AoE, slowing traps and average but well sustained ranged dps. Mage: Once you're mid level 20's you can just start AoE levelling. Welcomed in every group for sheep and as a vending machine. The most viable spec is frost as its needed for the whole AoE levelling. You can go fire tho most people will wonder why. Probably the second most played class for pvp after rogue. As you can sheep players for all eternity you can grief lowbies by sheeping them for 5 minutes until they log out and whisper they reported you to gm. Paladins: High survivability during levelling. You got close to no burst whatsoever and most classes dont really care for you in pvp as they can run away from you, sheep/fear/mana burn/disarm/vanish and reengage you. You can tank in dungeons but most people choose not to have palas tank because they have to drink in between every other fight. In raids you will be expected to heal, but there are also a few slots for retri paladins. Most are expected to have the axe Nightfall which can proc a debuff that increases spell damage on the target. Priest: You just spec for 20% wand dmg and your levelling will be shadow word pain+renew+wand till its dead. You will receive whispers from people wanting you to heal in dungeons. No problem getting in raids. If you're new to vanilla healing, remember to use lower ranks of your heal spell and not always the highest rank as it will overheal your target and consume too much mana. Holy is fully viable in pvp, play it well and you can even use your staff to take down people. There's always a few slots for shadow priests in raid groups as well for their shadow dmg increase debuff. The warlocks best friend. Warlock: This class is fun as hell as at lvl50 you will get an infernal which you can let loose and it will attack players of your own faction. So either you go and release it in goldshire and see it kill all lowbies or you can put it outside the gate where the new undead players exit their starting zone and see them cry and die. Soulstones for ressurection in the event of wipe in dungeon, healthstones (free hp potion) and people will actually whisper you and ask you to summon them. Your dps will be in the top in raids together with mages. You are highly wanted as warlocks are one of the classes not that many play up to level 60 and when people start out raiding a few warlocks is absolutely necessary for their crowd control. Shaman: Enhancement is fun, you got a lot of dps but you're also a glass cannon, probably the most viable if not the only levelling spec. You can still gather some cloth or leather with intellect stats and change into that and heal in dungeons up to about mid level 40s. In raids you're mostly expected to heal, but enchancement dps is not that rare to see. Their class quests are really boring. Their main purpose is really just dropping nature and fire resist totems.
Mages do get to 60 faster than the others. If they don't level alone or have superhuman concentration because there's nothing easier than dying trying to AOE grind. And don't forget to drink after every single fight.
@@YoYo-vc1os no its cause the overall game was still similar to vanilla, the game wasn't ruined and lots of things were added to the game such as abilities which made classes feel more fun to play and added more skill to the game etc.
@David Olsson I want to enjoy classic at my own pace, heck, I also plan on waiting a week or two after launch to avoid the rush and the streamer servers.
I spent what felt like a million hours in WSG. Thunderhorn server Druid named Desperado. (I NEED to get that name again).. With a even half decent premade WSG group and a skilled and geared druid. Games last less than 10 min. Unstoppable. Druid pvp set gives cheetah form the speed of a mount with no cast time. If you can get outside with the flag its all over but the crying for the other team. I hate/miss those endless hours of making figure 8's on WSG.
@@LhasaThailand no one will remember in 100 days. Also, I most likely won't get it. I only got it before because I made that too about two hours after launch of vanilla.
Started playing in BC before BT dropped and always played a Warlock, including on vanilla private servers within the past year. Personally I think they deserved a 5/5 Spongebabs for levelling due to their ability to deal with multiple targets at a time. Dot 2 targets, pet tank one, fear juggle the other. Done properly and with some judicious life drain/tap, you have little downtime between pulls. If you're feeling adventurous enough, you dot three, pet tank one, juggle another and wand/drain the third.
One thing extra that ret pally, dps shammy and spriests have going for them. They are a resto druids best friend in dungeouns since they bring an extra rezz.
doesn't matter, just do unorthodox builds for everything. i had so much fun back then trying to do quirky builds on every class. like PVP based hunter with high melee output to help deal with warriors and the like. (now, i can't actually remember how it held up to be fair, but i do remember it at least being decent enough, i had fun.) or that time i did a near suicidal warlock build with a mate that tanked, IIRC you could do rain of fire or something like that as well as hellfire at the same time, mate would just pull a bunch of mobs while i went mental on aoe, one (or both?) of which damaged me aswell. actually, that might've just been standard warlock now that i think of it... fuck if i remember
@@firstLast-jw7bm If I am not mistaken scam is something where they promise or say that ''you will get this'' and then not deliver. In this case no one is promised anything :)
I actually leveled from 54 to 60 doing only aoe dm pulls and the same time got the gold for a 100% mount. Everytime I did the dm 5 times and got locked out, I played my alt. Was so efficient to HS to Feralas and get rested aswell!
why is that every guide is basically about uplicking the warrior into the high heavens like how fuking good they are and u should be a demigod if u want to be a warrior.... total bullshit. once you've learned the rota and the knowhows its just simply jumping from 1-2-3(at max) rota depending on the fight. I mean have you ever played Warcraft 3 ? Yes? Good, then controlling a warrior shouldnt be really a problem.... Let the hate flow on me idc anymore :D
I keep thinking my mind is made, but it changes every couple of days -_- Warrior, priest or hunter is what I think I have narrowed it down to. You would think it would be as simple as Tank, heal or dps in this situation lol
@RobGov ahh that sucks i'm currently in a 8000 positions queue just to reserve one character on a pvp server i'll play on a pve server on launch because i'll get triggered too much by the gankers xD
Bro.. I'm bout to call you CNN bc this was one of the most biased and incorrect things I've watched in a while. Its clear which classes and specs you've never used, bc you were so far off on some.
i like how you went over the downsides thoroughly. many other channels just go over how great every class is and dont really give too much insight as to the troubles you might face playing a certain class.
Going to call it now, there will be a shortage of warriors. They're just too time consuming. Not just levelling but gold farming and getting ganked when you're under geared. They are the best class in the game tho so naturally I will be playing one. I have already applied for leave from my job. God help me
Which is why I can't wait to level up a prot warrior and basically gain knowledge mostly by leveling and doing lower level dungeons. And at the same time, have a rogue for myself. I can already see it being a pain, but the end results will be phenomenal and if I can get my hands on that T3 warrior gear and get a kill for Kel'Thuzad, my destiny shall finally come. Atleast if I do that, I can call myself a legit tank in MMORPGs.
holy shit, that was a clip of Pat the Tauren warrior from TG. He Pwned my poor rogue so many goddamn times with his WF bot and healbot lol they would stand inside his bigass and cap flags hahaha miss those days
Play an arcane mage in raid and never have to worry about downranking spells ever again. 16 seconds without spending mana. While continuously casting. Sweet sweet value on that "useless" spirit gear no one wants. Also improved amplify magic rocks. Free spellpower for every healer !
@@ksherman51 Arcane Missile spends mana when you click. When arcane missile triggers Clearcast, you continue with arcane missile. So that's 10 seconds of casting without spending mana. Follow with a pyroblast that spends mana on cast (which means 6 seconds later). So yeah. That's 11 seconds of full regen for every clearcast. However, I did exagerate a bit. Even though Arcane Missile is a bit less expensive (in mana per second) than fireball, your will probably need to downrank it a bit even taking into consideration this trick. I didn't play Vanilla. But I used a similar trick in BC and shocked a fair amount of mage officers in my time. If I play a mage, I will definitely play arcane. I like the old slow arcane missiles. And PoM Sheep is always welcomed in dungeons.
@@alphapolimeris- AM does not have the DPS to compete in Vanilla. If you spec into Arcane, it's because you're casting frostbolts or fireballs with a different set of cooldowns.
@@smallpseudonym2844 AM has ok numbers, but it has two big issue really: the fact that it only gets 100% of spellpower even though it's a 5 second spell, and the fact that interrupting it to move/decurse is crippling your mana efficiency. During T1 and dungeons, it should be fine due to low spellpower, easier mechanics and low flask usage. But later, yeah... If you want to push as hard as you can, I don't think anything can beat a well built frostbolt spam.
@@alphapolimeris when mages are out of MC, Onyxia and BWL, they can unleash the full potential of fire spec and just kick ass with monumental dots after crits, and a whopping +15% flat buff to all their damage after stacking scorch. At this point the question is not "will I top the DPS chart", but "Will the tanks be able to keep aggro away from me"
About ret, the nost core code has it wrong.(hear me out this is actually new info) Nano, one of the nost devs outright said that there was very little information about how holy damage really worked in PVE and even less information about ret paladins specifically. For example the lead class designer who essentially built all of the classes recently said in an interview that the whole idea behind holy damage was that it is the only form of damage that can’t be resisted, but if you look at gameplay From nost/Elysium/LH you can see some mobs partially resisting/resisting holy damage. So right off the bat all of the information we have about ret pally DPS over the past few years is completely wrong. Yea they are still going to be heavily reliant on consumables but the DPS numbers we have are completely wrong.
@@dustyhombre the resists of holy dmg dont come from a resistance but the higher level of the mob/boss. you need like all other spelldmg classes spellhit to increase the succes of holy dmg. good luck getting this stat high on a melee char. (complete poorly classdesign. they needed a lot of patches and remakes to make retri viable in my opinion - like the fusion of hit and spellhit in WOTLK)
I can instantly see you never played Vanilla. The downtime and reliance on teammates for mages is real - 5/5 is most defintely wrong when it comes to mages. I have lvled 2 lvl 60 druids and one 60 Hunter in vanilla, and they are just a little bit behind in solo lvling compared to the Hunter. A tiny little to be exact. Video is very spot on. Soon youll know why (you can never solo EliteQuest, Travel on foot for aeons, oom after a couple of mobs, dying on every bad pull vs soloing EliteQuests, extreme cheap and fast travel after first day, next to never dying - always be able to escape, no downtime, instant Grp invites, superfast underwater quests etc). TL;DR: You massively undervalue Druids solo lvling advantages. Mages 4/5 is alrdy a very benevolent rating.
@@DarkerSavant druids dont have shield wall or last stand, not worth it as a main tank, period. Sure, they can work, but not worth it imo. Also, in relation to TomWyn's comment, Ive personally seen druids level insanely fast to 60.
@@DarkerSavant druids have their place but not to be your guilds primary main tank, not saying they cannot tank but a warrior can do everything a druid tank can and more in terms of that job role specifically
Ive had my hunter since the early days still my main, second is druid, i still use both and have allot of fun with, havnt gotten too far in classic yet with my paladin, i miss the golden days of wow good times
I played through most of Vanilla as a hunter, gave it up when TBC launched as I disliked the direction the class had went in. Regardless, I still have very fond memories of chain-pulling mobs for my guilds tanks through raids, kiting all the dragonkin on Razorgore (as well as a bunch of other encounters), and generally showing off! Hunters used to get a lot of flack back then for the 'hunter loot' thing and the fact a lot of uhh... 'lower skilled' players picked them up. Easy to play but hard to master in my experience, still very tempted to roll one for classic, although I'm leaning toward Rogue at the moment.
Great video overall, but disagree with your opinion on enhancement Shamans pvp. Mained as Shaman in Vanilla, and pvp'ed alot both with enhancement and elemental. On enhancement the only classes that could even put up a fight was shadow priests and warlocks due to their instant cast damage and crowd control abilities, and good geared warriors due to their resistance to your melee dmg. Decent armor, good spell damage, and insane melee damage with proccs that occured often, spell interrupt, slow and ignite abilities that you even got a reduced cd on from the enhancement tree was amazing. An instant big heal on top of this was almost unfair, and if this wasn't enough to keep you alive, you could ress yourself instantly. When you on top of all this purged away the really important buffs, especially from casters, you could be a big pain. Ghost wolf was also useful for those trying to run :D
@@randyhoughtaling5465 Go check out Unbreakable Sulfuras Shaman on youtube if you haven't allready :D Ofc it's heavily edited, and he's got the best wep for the specc, but still showcase the mechanics well. I used to run with the unstoppable force that you get from exalted with AV, and it worked out great with the spec. Windfury or flurry procced in most encounters, but when the stars aligned with a windfury procc on stormstrike and then flurry, even prot warriors went down immediatly. Really loved the gameplay, and the enjoyment of a windfury in someones face :D
@@johnhandcock3242 Ofc it's edited, just like all wow pvp vids on youtube. Yes elemental is a bit stronger, especially if you don't have good gear, But enhancement is solid with good gear. Classic is before windfury was nerfed to half it's effect (and still being ok), I had a 20% chance to procc it. It gave the damage of 2 extra strikes with +811 att power (My base attack power was just over 400 I think) so 1200 attackpower on 2 extra strikes with a big 2 hander and you don't have to wait for the animation, and 20% is a decent chance for a procc. But yes ofcourse Elemental is more reliable and consistent, but not as much fun :D
I'm going for a walock... didn't like the lock breakdown, he made the class look trash while it has a lot of pros he didn't even mention like curse of shadow elements and reklessness, summoning, shadowbolt debuff...and the dps isn't that bad either, you can topmeter before naxx if you invest in consumables... The lore, the quests the SOULHARVESTRR and the class identity which make the class even cooler and unique.
Warlocks were indeed VERY strong, and you needed their debuffs. In PvP, as well, I remember watching warlocks two shot people with shadow bolt. That was just goofy to me!
@@Rainbow_Painbow yep curse of element alone is like 8% of mages totale dps. 8% more frost/fire dmg depends on a single button press from the lock it is assigned to :D Edit 10% at rank 2 :P
Basically. I was a mage and my roommate was a warrior. I basically showed up, made food, people gave me flasks, I stood in the back spamming fireball, rarely got rolled against, because 1 mage was all that was needed and we where rare, so I had no problems. My roommate??? cheese and rice. That dude basically had a second job as a raid tank. Hours and hours, and piles of gold, and constant begging to run dungeons, help with quests. He liked it because he basically could act like a spoiled child actor and people would just wait for him.
I'm a huge vanilla veteran and have played the same class on every private server I've played and have no plans of changing, so the answer is obvious, I'm going Blood Elf Death Knight! Can't wait for August 27th!
I don't understand why the legendary weapons have level requirements. It should say a random level like 12. If you can convince 39+ people to give you thunderfury at level 12, you deserve it.

Overall this is a good video, but stating that having a Feral as off-tank is not even worth it, kinda shows how biased you are towards Warrior, since you played it for so long. Ferals can tank Naxx, there will be some fights where warrior is 100% a better choice, but otherwise it isn't so clear cut. Plus with the right spec, a feral not only can off tank (or main tank) they can also heal in the same raid.
also they are the best tanks on nightmare-dragons (green world bosses). and the battle rezz also op. aura aswell. we had 1 maintank warry 1 protadin and 1 bear in the tank team. works superb.
@@maaikevanderaa2269 Just have a look at this channel. Just because you didn't have them, it doesn't mean they weren't good. But I completely agree that bears were better in TBC. Yet, a number of classes became much better in 1.12. Bear is one of them. Unfortunately a lot of people don't remember what was happening strictly in that patch, they remember the "whole" of Vanilla, and before that patch I would have agreed with you that Bears weren't worth it. th-cam.com/channels/5xSfo5nMGSmv00sGpRN7SQ.html
@@JoarProductions The pets offer a huge amount of utility (imp higher dps, voidwalker personal tank, fellhunter WPvP help). The voidwalker stands out the most for leveling because it offers you the ability to safely multi-pull, and since you're not taking damage you will save on eating/drinking. Life tap means you wont run out of mana, there's self healing which synergies with that. You have a free and strong self heal with health stone, that doesn't share a CD with health potions. Soulstone means you can avoid walking to your body once an hour. DoTs, and fears also make for strong multi-pulls and WPvP. Also free mount at 40.
I mained a hunter, it was my first and only 60 until wotlk. You nailed it but forgot to mention that we're a huge pain for the most played class in vanilla, rogues. I can't tell you how many rogues would rage at me. Also back in the days when hunters used mana, all gear was "hunter gear" 😂
Love the contrast between talking about Arms pvp--"the kings, I repeat, the kings!!!" and then all the energy getting sucked out of the room when he talks about the warrior leveling process
Hmm so if I'm looking for a class with the most fun leveling /world pvp experience--what do I go? Note that I have played a lot of rogue before so I might want to try something different.
" He who hesitates is lost" - Wise warrior :-D Agree on the intensity of the war keyboard mashing style, as well as a totally unique and fun style . Charging into battle, the tactical playstyle, etc. Rough at pvp at 60 until top gear though... can have a blast when leveling in BGs though Tank wise , Ive run it in all expansions more or less. But In classic/vanilla, war tanks are REALLY barebones and require the attributes you point out. I felt much better as a warrior tank in BC than Classic. Still, its a totally unique experience
Yeah he's saying "Mealy" instead of "may LAY" And I'm guessing that his experience in vanilla must be on private servers cause I don't remember as many rogues as he is saying there was.
Moonkin or Shadow Priest! And did you ever played Moonkin on lvl 60!? Ofc you did NOT...so few ppl did, so you statement is based on almost no facts at all! Same goes for Shadow Priest! And am sure that Classic will be updated...and all the updates will nothing like we use to know from Vanilla, they have to do it...or they can delete Moonkin, Shadow Priest, Ret Paladin, Feral Druids, Survival Hunters...
@@landsraad9745 Best spec back in the day (PVP wise) was actually a hybrid MM/S. You didn't benefit from TS but ended up having the best of 2 jam packed trees.
@@rudy1999 The problem with BM is you heavily rely on your pet to do damage. In a lot of scenarios, you won't even be able to or allowed to send your pet out in fear of it picking up any aggro. It sucks but it's the same reason why I was forced to spec out of my demonology warlock build if I wanted to continue to raid.
We got a bad rap as hunters. Huntards everyone calls us. Yet I think it's jelly peeps cause they know the poop hits their shorts when they see us coming in pvp. I also think we are highly under estimated. I main'd paladin in vanilla but I mainly pvp'd as a hunter and did things that have already had people calling BS on me since starting classic. Fact is anyone I played against saw me coming into their zone they ran or logged. sure plenty of bad hunters but good hunters are a nightmare in pvp.
I remember raiding MC, BWL, AQ and Naxxramas. And the disappointment of 30-37 (since we rarely got a full raid for the raids) people clamoring through Teamspeak 2 (yes, we used something THAT ancient) because the bosses were dropping yet another hunter gear, is still haunting me. Raid after raid, week after week,.... *trembling with horror*
I see a very heavy bias toward warriors, tank is not by any means easy but he overly talked it up as if it takes 200iq and quick reflexes to play a prot warrior. Once again it isn't easy and you do HAVE to be punctual, but it really isn't that hard once you understand threat and rage generation. If you want to play a prot warrior don't let him scare you out of it b/c it really isn't that hard.
Im with you on that bro prot is hella fun and nothing beats the feeling of gaining every lvl after 40 when grinding as prot 💯 I can't wait to play true vanilla again
2.5 sponges on shaman leveling is ridiculous. Shaman leveling is superb since shamans dont need gear with their inbound Attack power in their weapon buffs, having strong defense, selfheal and instant dmg.
I doesnt realy know why but other than heal. It feels like he hates shamans XD Enhas are way better in any melee group. And if you know the totem twisting, u got guaranteed place.
Theres a lot not said in this video. If you're a normie (dedicated but not a nerd king) rogues are not the best. You want to play for for the late game, go for warrior or shaman. Warlocks are super strong from bwl.
@@Muddyowns go shaman bro. Healing is essential in raids and is actually pretty fun. It's a game against other healers to see who heals the most without overhealing. It's not just mindless button mashing, theres actually some skill. Also.. if you go shaman, you are eligible for hand of ragnaros if you find a proper guild to prioritize you for it. Shaman is super fun. Purge is overpowered in pvp. Theres also room for a shaman in every dungeon group too so more chances for loot.
You forgot to mention more of the Warlock's utility. In desperate situations the Voidwalker can tank in lower levels, sometimes off tank a mob or two in high level dungeons. They also bring healthstones, curse to increase caster DPS, Soulstone. They can also use Seduce which in instances which is just as viable as polymorph. They can dot the off-tanked mobs as well for good aoe cleaving and they can summon raid/party members if they need to go back to town for anything. And CoS / CoE caused negative resistances before it was patched, and it gave you double damage. Add the Ruin talent and you'd crit for ridiculous amounts. They also levelled faster than mages. You basically skipped over all the good things about warlocks in PvE, lol. What a shitty video.
Seriously? You say the video is shitty because he didnt mention some stuff of the class ur gonna main in vanilla? You sound like a fucking 14 year old Virgin holy shit. Get a Life and stop Crying, video was really fking good and informative. I agree he didnt mention healthstones and Soulstone maybe he forgot? You just had to add "What a shitty video" in the end, making you sound like a pathetic fucking Little boy. Grow the fuck up.
Might give Classic a try, but probably as mage just to keep it simple. Tho I doubt I'd be playing long-term. Not until Blizz gets Burning Crusade going, anyway :P Now THAT would be the shit.
You make a lot of good points about rolling hunter, and I can certainly relate to not having as much time to play as I used to. From my experience in a progression guild back in vanilla, hunters and druids were the fastest to gear up followed by priests who were funneled basically everything, even more than the main tank. I think this time around, however, the classic meta will have more to do with private servers. It'd be easy to just "play what I want" but I think meta-gaming and predicting which classes will be over- and under-populated based on private servers will lead to a better time. For example, the most sought-after class for raids is actually resto shaman. 8 shamans per raid, 20% of the raid blue bar bois, while they're usually about 10% of Horde characters. I think I'm rolling shaman.
@@100plusRG there are fewer hunters on private servers because the meta is that they "fall off" and aren't in huge demand for raids. Warlocks are the opposite, I think they'll be over-populated this time around because people know how good they are with leveling, PvE and PvP, even without respeccing. Priest is just always a good choice but you will need to compete with caster dps for loot. If I were you I'd go hunter unless you really like healing, in which case, priest.
Has Blizzard said anything about the End Game PvE viability of different specs of hybrid classes in WoW Classic? In Vanilla, Druids, Paladins and Shamans were just healers, mostly because their itemization sucked for the non-heal specializations... Have they said anything about their plans of fixing this? Are the non-healing specs going to be viable in PvE??
Really?? Wow, then I see a lot of bullshit class reviews on YT... "Druid, the perfect jack-of-all-trades, you can be a tank, melee-dps, ranged dps or healer!" Unless you want to do end-game raiding then your a healer..... YT class reviews are a joke if Blizzard announced that hybrid itemization isn't changing because none of them mention that all hybrids are just healers at end-game...
My 8yr old just came in and was like "Who is he? The creator of the game? Tellin everyone what to do." Lol

I don't know what he's talking about with druids leveling fast. That was absolutely not the case in vanilla. I leveled a druid in vanilla and it was horrible. Feral was great for 1-30 but capped out and the dps actually went down with mobs having more armor and evasion. If that is WoW Classic or Private Servers it's not authentic.
@@Jordan-Ramses nope, ferals have 0 downtime and fast movement throughout the leveling process.
Having a bunch of mages working together to feed the power of another mage is pretty badass. It seems like something mages would do.
It is the whole story of "The guardian of tirisfal" and Medivh etc. You should look up "The Guardian of Tirisfal"
At first I thought, man feeding someone else's dps sucks, however, raiding was all about completion and the raw "oh fuck yes we did it!" feeling. I'm cool with fuckin up a boss as a whole and not being top dps

Shaman lvling should be atleast 3. You get a heartstone spell (astral recall) that can be used every 15min! That really helps with lvlin
Enhance/ ele shaman lvling should be fine. mana totem, self heals ... recycle.... no need for food / water.... just gotta make sure to do the totem quests =)

Im sorry man but talking about warlocks in pve, not mentioning soulstones and summoning people..dude? :P
And the leveling is definitely 5 stars, but i might be biased as a lock main.
leveling is DEFINITELY 5 stars for locks. Voidwalker tank and dotting everything was great. Plus SSing yourself and healthstones plus draon life makes everything easy. Plus through talents they get a shit ton of stamina.
Ah plus shadowburn in destro was fucking insane.
Curses... I mean he did say locks just aren't his thing. Honestly, they are less work for most than hunters... no pet taming shenanigans.
I really love the demon quests for each demon and then the mount quest. i got my epic riding warlock mount in classic. it was fucking legendary.
I will be a warrior tank and never be there for my raid :) just like it's meant to be
rogues may have been popular back in vanilla, but with wow classic i guarantee you warriors will be most played class.
Warriors have always been most played class.
Hunter was very op in pvp, it’s not like on retail.... 19lvl hunter on BG killed anyone in 3secs
As a vanilla rogue main, obtaining gear and getting into guilds were such a pain. However, topping meters and pvp was so fun.
Pvp is where it is at anyways.

Hunter is one of the best classes for pvp hands down whether it’s wpvp, bgs or premades they are without a doubt 5 stars.
kristoffer petersson yeah Holy Paladins are the best group support class in the game they are a nightmare if they have good teammates
Which Class should you pick? simple whatever u like the most,its classic t
What to expect from each class.
Warrior: You're gear starved all the time, unless you pickup blacksmithing and go through tedium of farming 1500 mithril and 2400 thorium. Up until about lvl30 every 5th swing with your weapon is a miss. If you want to make it easier for yourself tanking get the talent tactical mastery and then you charge and change to defensive stance and keep your rage, quite handy for the first dungeons. You'll be wanted all the time for tanking. Finding a raid guild you can both dps and tank. Most seasoned, hardcore guilds usually have dedicated (no life) officers who play the tanks, so even if you want to tank at lvl60 it is more of a chance really you're going to dps.
Rogue: Levelling, you'll struggle to take down three mobs up until about lvl40. As for raid openings, its going to be as always the most played class so you're going to see some competition getting into raid groups as well as getting the pre-raid gear as most come from the lvl60 dungeons and 10-man raid. People usually play rogues for pvp servers so they can grief people levelling in redridge.
Druid: Level with feral is very easy and with entangling roots you can solo several outside elites on your own. You should spec feral instinct first in the feral talent tree, it increases your threat and bear is a very viable tank in vanilla. For raids you will be mostly expected to heal. Some goofy guilds will take you in as a bear tank, but most just have ferals for dps. Boomkin is even more rare to see in raids.
Hunter: Easiest character to level. You can kite dead elite mobs. You've got a very strong pet, spec beastmastery and you can kill most classes just by sending your pet on them up until lvl60. In raids there's always a slot for a few hunters as most bosses uses enrage and hunters gets a skill that dispels that. All around a nice utility dps class. AoE, slowing traps and average but well sustained ranged dps.
Mage: Once you're mid level 20's you can just start AoE levelling. Welcomed in every group for sheep and as a vending machine. The most viable spec is frost as its needed for the whole AoE levelling. You can go fire tho most people will wonder why. Probably the second most played class for pvp after rogue. As you can sheep players for all eternity you can grief lowbies by sheeping them for 5 minutes until they log out and whisper they reported you to gm.
Paladins: High survivability during levelling. You got close to no burst whatsoever and most classes dont really care for you in pvp as they can run away from you, sheep/fear/mana burn/disarm/vanish and reengage you. You can tank in dungeons but most people choose not to have palas tank because they have to drink in between every other fight. In raids you will be expected to heal, but there are also a few slots for retri paladins. Most are expected to have the axe Nightfall which can proc a debuff that increases spell damage on the target.
Priest: You just spec for 20% wand dmg and your levelling will be shadow word pain+renew+wand till its dead. You will receive whispers from people wanting you to heal in dungeons. No problem getting in raids. If you're new to vanilla healing, remember to use lower ranks of your heal spell and not always the highest rank as it will overheal your target and consume too much mana. Holy is fully viable in pvp, play it well and you can even use your staff to take down people. There's always a few slots for shadow priests in raid groups as well for their shadow dmg increase debuff. The warlocks best friend.
Warlock: This class is fun as hell as at lvl50 you will get an infernal which you can let loose and it will attack players of your own faction. So either you go and release it in goldshire and see it kill all lowbies or you can put it outside the gate where the new undead players exit their starting zone and see them cry and die. Soulstones for ressurection in the event of wipe in dungeon, healthstones (free hp potion) and people will actually whisper you and ask you to summon them. Your dps will be in the top in raids together with mages. You are highly wanted as warlocks are one of the classes not that many play up to level 60 and when people start out raiding a few warlocks is absolutely necessary for their crowd control.
Shaman: Enhancement is fun, you got a lot of dps but you're also a glass cannon, probably the most viable if not the only levelling spec. You can still gather some cloth or leather with intellect stats and change into that and heal in dungeons up to about mid level 40s. In raids you're mostly expected to heal, but enchancement dps is not that rare to see. Their class quests are really boring. Their main purpose is really just dropping nature and fire resist totems.
Was a Paladin in Classic....will be a Paladin again!
Mages do get to 60 faster than the others. If they don't level alone or have superhuman concentration because there's nothing easier than dying trying to AOE grind. And don't forget to drink after every single fight.

I spent what felt like a million hours in WSG. Thunderhorn server Druid named Desperado. (I NEED to get that name again).. With a even half decent premade WSG group and a skilled and geared druid. Games last less than 10 min. Unstoppable. Druid pvp set gives cheetah form the speed of a mount with no cast time. If you can get outside with the flag its all over but the crying for the other team.

Started playing in BC before BT dropped and always played a Warlock, including on vanilla private servers within the past year. Personally I think they deserved a 5/5 Spongebabs for levelling due to their ability to deal with multiple targets at a time. Dot 2 targets, pet tank one, fear juggle the other. Done properly and with some judicious life drain/tap, you have little downtime between pulls. If you're feeling adventurous enough, you dot three, pet tank one, juggle another and wand/drain the third.
Not having lock 5/5 in leveling is just stupid.
One thing extra that ret pally, dps shammy and spriests have going for them.

doesn't matter, just do unorthodox builds for everything.

like PVP based hunter with high melee output to help deal with warriors and the like. (now, i can't actually remember how it held up to be fair, but i do remember it at least being decent enough, i had fun.)
or that time i did a near suicidal warlock build with a mate that tanked, IIRC you could do rain of fire or something like that as well as hellfire at the same time, mate would just pull a bunch of mobs while i went mental on aoe, one (or both?) of which damaged me aswell.
actually, that might've just been standard warlock now that i think of it... fuck if i remember

i like how you went over the downsides thoroughly. many other channels just go over how great every class is and dont really give too much insight as to the troubles you might face playing a certain class.
Going to call it now, there will be a shortage of warriors. They're just too time consuming. Not just levelling but gold farming and getting ganked when you're under geared. They are the best class in the game tho so naturally I will be playing one.
I have already applied for leave from my job. God help me
Your probably right with all the instant gratification nowadays.
I go on vacation the week after classic comes out ahhh!
Summer ends on release. Fuck me...
Which is why I can't wait to level up a prot warrior and basically gain knowledge mostly by leveling and doing lower level dungeons. And at the same time, have a rogue for myself. I can already see it being a pain, but the end results will be phenomenal and if I can get my hands on that T3 warrior gear and get a kill for Kel'Thuzad, my destiny shall finally come. Atleast if I do that, I can call myself a legit tank in MMORPGs.
Not true. I played on pservers and they were EVERYWHERE. Warriors are extremely popular in vanilla.

Play an arcane mage in raid and never have to worry about downranking spells ever again.
16 seconds without spending mana. While continuously casting. Sweet sweet value on that "useless" spirit gear no one wants.
Also improved amplify magic rocks. Free spellpower for every healer !
is this real? lol i havent played p.servers and in real classic this wasnt a thing
@@ksherman51 Arcane Missile spends mana when you click. When arcane missile triggers Clearcast, you continue with arcane missile. So that's 10 seconds of casting without spending mana. Follow with a pyroblast that spends mana on cast (which means 6 seconds later).
So yeah. That's 11 seconds of full regen for every clearcast.
However, I did exagerate a bit. Even though Arcane Missile is a bit less expensive (in mana per second) than fireball, your will probably need to downrank it a bit even taking into consideration this trick.
I didn't play Vanilla. But I used a similar trick in BC and shocked a fair amount of mage officers in my time.
If I play a mage, I will definitely play arcane. I like the old slow arcane missiles. And PoM Sheep is always welcomed in dungeons.
@@alphapolimeris- AM does not have the DPS to compete in Vanilla. If you spec into Arcane, it's because you're casting frostbolts or fireballs with a different set of cooldowns.
@@smallpseudonym2844 AM has ok numbers, but it has two big issue really: the fact that it only gets 100% of spellpower even though it's a 5 second spell, and the fact that interrupting it to move/decurse is crippling your mana efficiency.

But later, yeah... If you want to push as hard as you can, I don't think anything can beat a well built frostbolt spam.
@@alphapolimeris when mages are out of MC, Onyxia and BWL, they can unleash the full potential of fire spec and just kick ass with monumental dots after crits, and a whopping +15% flat buff to all their damage after stacking scorch.

Now if I were a dps class . . .
About ret, the nost core code has it wrong.(hear me out this is actually new info)
Nano, one of the nost devs outright said that there was very little information about how holy damage really worked in PVE and even less information about ret paladins specifically.
For example the lead class designer who essentially built all of the classes recently said in an interview that the whole idea behind holy damage was that it is the only form of damage that can’t be resisted, but if you look at gameplay From nost/Elysium/LH you can see some mobs partially resisting/resisting holy damage. So right off the bat all of the information we have about ret pally DPS over the past few years is completely wrong. Yea they are still going to be heavily reliant on consumables but the DPS numbers we have are completely wrong.
From my understanding, it's not that Holy damage can't be resisted, it's just that Holy Resistance as a stat doesn't exist in the game.
Wrong, and probably way higher than they actually are. Ret only sort of worked in Naxx a little. Other than that, it was trash.
@@dustyhombre the resists of holy dmg dont come from a resistance but the higher level of the mob/boss. you need like all other spelldmg classes spellhit to increase the succes of holy dmg. good luck getting this stat high on a melee char. (complete poorly classdesign. they needed a lot of patches and remakes to make retri viable in my opinion - like the fusion of hit and spellhit in WOTLK)
Druid leveling score 4
Mage leveling score 5
...
Should both be 5 realistically
Druids can be better tanks then T3 Warriors. They just require very very select gear and a high skill cap. I think he is selling them terribly short.
I can instantly see you never played Vanilla. The downtime and reliance on teammates for mages is real - 5/5 is most defintely wrong when it comes to mages. I have lvled 2 lvl 60 druids and one 60 Hunter in vanilla, and they are just a little bit behind in solo lvling compared to the Hunter. A tiny little to be exact. Video is very spot on.
Soon youll know why (you can never solo EliteQuest, Travel on foot for aeons, oom after a couple of mobs, dying on every bad pull vs soloing EliteQuests, extreme cheap and fast travel after first day, next to never dying - always be able to escape, no downtime, instant Grp invites, superfast underwater quests etc).
TL;DR: You massively undervalue Druids solo lvling advantages. Mages 4/5 is alrdy a very benevolent rating.
@@DarkerSavant druids dont have shield wall or last stand, not worth it as a main tank, period. Sure, they can work, but not worth it imo. Also, in relation to TomWyn's comment, Ive personally seen druids level insanely fast to 60.

I shall be a Hunter again in classic 😂 love the class
I played through most of Vanilla as a hunter, gave it up when TBC launched as I disliked the direction the class had went in. Regardless, I still have very fond memories of chain-pulling mobs for my guilds tanks through raids, kiting all the dragonkin on Razorgore (as well as a bunch of other encounters), and generally showing off! Hunters used to get a lot of flack back then for the 'hunter loot' thing and the fact a lot of uhh... 'lower skilled' players picked them up. Easy to play but hard to master in my experience, still very tempted to roll one for classic, although I'm leaning toward Rogue at the moment.

Great video overall, but disagree with your opinion on enhancement Shamans pvp. Mained as Shaman in Vanilla, and pvp'ed alot both with enhancement and elemental. On enhancement the only classes that could even put up a fight was shadow priests and warlocks due to their instant cast damage and crowd control abilities, and good geared warriors due to their resistance to your melee dmg. Decent armor, good spell damage, and insane melee damage with proccs that occured often, spell interrupt, slow and ignite abilities that you even got a reduced cd on from the enhancement tree was amazing. An instant big heal on top of this was almost unfair, and if this wasn't enough to keep you alive, you could ress yourself instantly. When you on top of all this purged away the really important buffs, especially from casters, you could be a big pain. Ghost wolf was also useful for those trying to run :D

Classic is before windfury was nerfed to half it's effect (and still being ok), I had a 20% chance to procc it. It gave the damage of 2 extra strikes with +811 att power (My base attack power was just over 400 I think) so 1200 attackpower on 2 extra strikes with a big 2 hander and you don't have to wait for the animation, and 20% is a decent chance for a procc. But yes ofcourse Elemental is more reliable and consistent, but not as much fun :D
I'm going for a walock... didn't like the lock breakdown, he made the class look trash while it has a lot of pros he didn't even mention like curse of shadow elements and reklessness, summoning, shadowbolt debuff...and the dps isn't that bad either, you can topmeter before naxx if you invest in consumables... The lore, the quests the SOULHARVESTRR and the class identity which make the class even cooler and unique.

Shawn because guilds would do it just to own in low level BGs, ruining the fun for everyone else.
@@ebonyyoe I'm already looking forward to lvl 19 twink rogues one shotting people while lvl 19 twink druids just carry the flag no problem is wsg with over 1k health at level friggin 19 >.> lol
Overall this is a good video, but stating that having a Feral as off-tank is not even worth it, kinda shows how biased you are towards Warrior, since you played it for so long. Ferals can tank Naxx, there will be some fights where warrior is 100% a better choice, but otherwise it isn't so clear cut. Plus with the right spec, a feral not only can off tank (or main tank) they can also heal in the same raid.
also they are the best tanks on nightmare-dragons (green world bosses). and the battle rezz also op. aura aswell. we had 1 maintank warry 1 protadin and 1 bear in the tank team. works superb.
We never had a bear offtank in Vanilla. They just weren't that good back then. Their boost came in TBC.
they were and a lot of guys will show it in august and september that they are quite good for tanking as well.
@@maaikevanderaa2269 Just have a look at this channel. Just because you didn't have them, it doesn't mean they weren't good. But I completely agree that bears were better in TBC.
Yet, a number of classes became much better in 1.12. Bear is one of them. Unfortunately a lot of people don't remember what was happening strictly in that patch, they remember the "whole" of Vanilla, and before that patch I would have agreed with you that Bears weren't worth it. th-cam.com/channels/5xSfo5nMGSmv00sGpRN7SQ.html
I think putting Warlock levelling at 4 shows you don't know much about the class.
why
@@JoarProductions The pets offer a huge amount of utility (imp higher dps, voidwalker personal tank, fellhunter WPvP help). The voidwalker stands out the most for leveling because it offers you the ability to safely multi-pull, and since you're not taking damage you will save on eating/drinking. Life tap means you wont run out of mana, there's self healing which synergies with that. You have a free and strong self heal with health stone, that doesn't share a CD with health potions. Soulstone means you can avoid walking to your body once an hour. DoTs, and fears also make for strong multi-pulls and WPvP. Also free mount at 40.
@@jacobs727 But 4 is like the 2nd best?
Joar
Yea, and warlock and hunters are considered the best.
I'm going to pick Tauren warrior Prot spec .Was MT on day one in Naxxramas on my Vanilla guild , and Is by far the best class for classic nostalgia ;D
good luck if you are not only pve
I mained a hunter, it was my first and only 60 until wotlk. You nailed it but forgot to mention that we're a huge pain for the most played class in vanilla, rogues. I can't tell you how many rogues would rage at me. Also back in the days when hunters used mana, all gear was "hunter gear" 😂
Love the contrast between talking about Arms pvp--"the kings, I repeat, the kings!!!" and then all the energy getting sucked out of the room when he talks about the warrior leveling process
Hmm so if I'm looking for a class with the most fun leveling /world pvp experience--what do I go? Note that I have played a lot of rogue before so I might want to try something different.
I am going to be an unique unicorn
shaman pve should be 5/5
@gardakan936 restoration shaman is the best raid healer
Just watch "that's the world of warcraft that you play"
" He who hesitates is lost"
- Wise warrior :-D
Agree on the intensity of the war keyboard mashing style, as well as a totally unique and fun style . Charging into battle, the tactical playstyle, etc. Rough at pvp at 60 until top gear though... can have a blast when leveling in BGs though
Tank wise , Ive run it in all expansions more or less. But In classic/vanilla, war tanks are REALLY barebones and require the attributes you point out. I felt much better as a warrior tank in BC than Classic. Still, its a totally unique experience
The word is pronounced "maylay" not meelee. It's French.
Yeah he's saying "Mealy" instead of "may LAY" And I'm guessing that his experience in vanilla must be on private servers cause I don't remember as many rogues as he is saying there was.
We say may-lay in aus.
and ?
From where I’m from we pronounce it mel-ay
I played vanilla warlock; loved it. Unkillable PVE.
ultimate solo farmer tbh
Peter Dinklage in a priest outfit while talking about dwarf priests made my day.
Moonkin or Shadow Priest! And did you ever played Moonkin on lvl 60!? Ofc you did NOT...so few ppl did, so you statement is based on almost no facts at all! Same goes for Shadow Priest! And am sure that Classic will be updated...and all the updates will nothing like we use to know from Vanilla, they have to do it...or they can delete Moonkin, Shadow Priest, Ret Paladin, Feral Druids, Survival Hunters...
you forgot to talk about hunters talent tree :|
Beastmaster to level. Marksman to raid, you can use Beast to raid if another Hunter has Trueshot Aura. Survival if you think you're a PvP god.
@@landsraad9745 Best spec back in the day (PVP wise) was actually a hybrid MM/S. You didn't benefit from TS but ended up having the best of 2 jam packed trees.
What about BM spec for both PvP and raids so i don't have to respec at all? Will i do zero damage in raids with that?
@@rudy1999 The problem with BM is you heavily rely on your pet to do damage. In a lot of scenarios, you won't even be able to or allowed to send your pet out in fear of it picking up any aggro. It sucks but it's the same reason why I was forced to spec out of my demonology warlock build if I wanted to continue to raid.
@@landsraad9745 MM to level works to.. you don't have to rely on your pet that much and you do much damage in dungeons.
We got a bad rap as hunters. Huntards everyone calls us. Yet I think it's jelly peeps cause they know the poop hits their shorts when they see us coming in pvp. I also think we are highly under estimated. I main'd paladin in vanilla but I mainly pvp'd as a hunter and did things that have already had people calling BS on me since starting classic. Fact is anyone I played against saw me coming into their zone they ran or logged. sure plenty of bad hunters but good hunters are a nightmare in pvp.
WoW Classic. You know what that means. Huntards are back! 5 spongebobs for accidental pulls and raid wipes.
oh sorry forgot to turn off growl
Nice I wanted to play warrior but now this vid just made me go hunter🤓🤓🤓
Hunter in vanilla was a blast.
With which class getting a gear piece feels the best? Subjective, but I'll trust Punkrats estimation.
I remember raiding MC, BWL, AQ and Naxxramas. And the disappointment of 30-37 (since we rarely got a full raid for the raids) people clamoring through Teamspeak 2 (yes, we used something THAT ancient) because the bosses were dropping yet another hunter gear, is still haunting me.
Raid after raid, week after week,.... *trembling with horror*
I see a very heavy bias toward warriors, tank is not by any means easy but he overly talked it up as if it takes 200iq and quick reflexes to play a prot warrior. Once again it isn't easy and you do HAVE to be punctual, but it really isn't that hard once you understand threat and rage generation. If you want to play a prot warrior don't let him scare you out of it b/c it really isn't that hard.
Im with you on that bro prot is hella fun and nothing beats the feeling of gaining every lvl after 40 when grinding as prot 💯 I can't wait to play true vanilla again
Thanks to the advert before the video, I know what I am going to play: a Nissan Rogue
lol, good one
2.5 sponges on shaman leveling is ridiculous. Shaman leveling is superb since shamans dont need gear with their inbound Attack power in their weapon buffs, having strong defense, selfheal and instant dmg.
I doesnt realy know why but other than heal. It feels like he hates shamans XD Enhas are way better in any melee group. And if you know the totem twisting, u got guaranteed place.
we had some pvp 1v1 tournaments on our realm...in the end, it was always wl vs wl :D
I cant decide been thinking about it everyday for ages
same bro
And once you have then you have to come up with a name!
Theres a lot not said in this video. If you're a normie (dedicated but not a nerd king) rogues are not the best. You want to play for for the late game, go for warrior or shaman. Warlocks are super strong from bwl.
@@davidkim9898 I want to go shaman but I don't wanna be forced to heal...
@@Muddyowns go shaman bro. Healing is essential in raids and is actually pretty fun. It's a game against other healers to see who heals the most without overhealing. It's not just mindless button mashing, theres actually some skill.
Also.. if you go shaman, you are eligible for hand of ragnaros if you find a proper guild to prioritize you for it. Shaman is super fun. Purge is overpowered in pvp. Theres also room for a shaman in every dungeon group too so more chances for loot.
You forgot to mention more of the Warlock's utility. In desperate situations the Voidwalker can tank in lower levels, sometimes off tank a mob or two in high level dungeons. They also bring healthstones, curse to increase caster DPS, Soulstone. They can also use Seduce which in instances which is just as viable as polymorph. They can dot the off-tanked mobs as well for good aoe cleaving and they can summon raid/party members if they need to go back to town for anything. And CoS / CoE caused negative resistances before it was patched, and it gave you double damage. Add the Ruin talent and you'd crit for ridiculous amounts. They also levelled faster than mages.
You basically skipped over all the good things about warlocks in PvE, lol.
What a shitty video.
Seriously?
You say the video is shitty because he didnt mention some stuff of the class ur gonna main in vanilla?
You sound like a fucking 14 year old Virgin holy shit.
Get a Life and stop Crying, video was really fking good and informative.
I agree he didnt mention healthstones and Soulstone maybe he forgot?
You just had to add "What a shitty video" in the end, making you sound like a pathetic fucking Little boy.
Grow the fuck up.
Might give Classic a try, but probably as mage just to keep it simple.
Tho I doubt I'd be playing long-term. Not until Blizz gets Burning Crusade going, anyway :P Now THAT would be the shit.
You make a lot of good points about rolling hunter, and I can certainly relate to not having as much time to play as I used to. From my experience in a progression guild back in vanilla, hunters and druids were the fastest to gear up followed by priests who were funneled basically everything, even more than the main tank.
I think this time around, however, the classic meta will have more to do with private servers. It'd be easy to just "play what I want" but I think meta-gaming and predicting which classes will be over- and under-populated based on private servers will lead to a better time. For example, the most sought-after class for raids is actually resto shaman. 8 shamans per raid, 20% of the raid blue bar bois, while they're usually about 10% of Horde characters. I think I'm rolling shaman.
What would be the situation on Alliance side in your opinion? Having the same kind of conundrum and hesitant between Lock, Priest and Hunt
@@100plusRG there are fewer hunters on private servers because the meta is that they "fall off" and aren't in huge demand for raids. Warlocks are the opposite, I think they'll be over-populated this time around because people know how good they are with leveling, PvE and PvP, even without respeccing. Priest is just always a good choice but you will need to compete with caster dps for loot. If I were you I'd go hunter unless you really like healing, in which case, priest.
Trolling us cause he wants noob
Could you do a video just like this, but for What class should you pick in WoW Classic for World PvP?
Has Blizzard said anything about the End Game PvE viability of different specs of hybrid classes in WoW Classic?
In Vanilla, Druids, Paladins and Shamans were just healers, mostly because their itemization sucked for the non-heal specializations... Have they said anything about their plans of fixing this? Are the non-healing specs going to be viable in PvE??
they said everything is going to be as it was, no changes.
Really?? Wow, then I see a lot of bullshit class reviews on YT... "Druid, the perfect jack-of-all-trades, you can be a tank, melee-dps, ranged dps or healer!" Unless you want to do end-game raiding then your a healer.....
YT class reviews are a joke if Blizzard announced that hybrid itemization isn't changing because none of them mention that all hybrids are just healers at end-game...
