    With Cata Classic expected to launch early summer, I wanted to make a start on the class related content.
    Today we are doing an overview of how in demand each class and spec should be.
    Of course things are subject to change, and we won't know for sure what will be best until the game has launched - either way treat this an some early impressions of what to expect and let me know what experience you have from Cata in the comments!

What WoW needs the most is people willing to lean the mechanics and be able to be an effective raid lead, and organizer. Everything else falls apart without the one or more people putting these groups together.

    prot pallys will definately be highly looked after due to the utility and the raidwide mitigation.
    also a pro tip for all the blood dks in cata: keep your hands onto your sindragosa trinket. paired with the res trinket from tol barad you can cheese baloroc in firelands and tank him solo which is only possible for blood dks and only with those 2 trinkets.

      You won't need those trinkets but yea he will always be solo tanked by DKs due to vamp blood and AMS.. many fights will be solo tanked by DKs. Tbh most raid comps will have a blood DK main tank and feral OT so I don't think prot pallys will be highly sought after. I just spent a year on a cata private server, warrior and pally tanks were greatly overlooked and I even saw them kicked or relegated to dps in favor of a BDK. It was a private server tho, blizzard making tweaks could change everything.

      I've never liked TLP servers until I played SoM. The relatively small knit community & handful of top guilds kept the trolling down and the community honest because your character's reputation within the community was actually significant to the point that if you were a shitty person to others you basically got marooned- which is preferable to no-name faces in the crowd that could fuck your group or raid & disappear without consequences. That being said, I love the idea of servers with dedicated timelines with options to circumvent the grinding aspect of leveling via XP buffs or quest level scaling with your actual level.

  • @naejimba
    @naejimba 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +30

    Keep in mind; most players will likely end up doing 10s instead of 25s, due to them sharing the same lockout and dropping the same gear. In 10 main raids, you only get ONE battle rez per fight. The biggest things you want to have covered are lust (shaman or mage) and something with a battle rez (druid, DK, or Warlock).
    As for the 3% damage buff, Ret is the best to fill that... your Mages will want to go fire by at least the 2nd tier, and BM Hunters don't deal nearly as much damage as SV. Ret also comes with a TON of advantages, from auras and buffs to insanely powerful CDs such Hand of Sacrifice and Lay on Hands. These CDs can and will save you from wipes, and with only a single b rez in 10s it becomes even more valuable to do so. They do fantastic damage from start to finish and cover so many buffs they are hard to pass up.
    SV Hunter is also another must pick IMO, simply because they can cover almost any buff your raid is missing via their pet choice. They have an interesting toolkit that makes them ideal to handle any odd jobs that a fight might present, and their excellent damage is now even LESS impacted by movement. This is a really good xpac for Hunters with nice quality of life changes and being incredible in both PvE and PvP.
    Ele is another spec that is hard to pass up simply with how much they bring to the table. They cover lust, the 5% crit buff, the 5% spell haste (only covered by three specs), 10% spell power buff (Demo is the ONLY other spec to provide this), and the armor buff that is only provided by the shaman totem and Devo Aura... meaning your pallies can use their other auras (and most other specs that can cover resistances have to give something else up to do so, even if it is only a glyph slot). On top of all of that, they become an actual damage dealer and have great AoE damage to boot. They are easy to play and fun.
    These are the big three that makes covering the buffs you need a breeze in a 10 man comp. ...and each one of them slaps.

      It won't be _entirely_ like it was back then because we're going to be playing with the final patch state of the game again, rather than experiencing the changes throughout the expansion. Fury warriors for example were a lot better for most of the expansion than they are in 4.3.4 so most likely they will be massively underrepresented. Fire mage was also quite a bit worse so arcane saw a lot more play, but fire got buffed so now they have much better baseline damage while still scaling extremely well so they'll be played even in the first raid tier (especially with reforging now allowing you to stack crit/mastery while getting as close as possible your haste breakpoints). All that being said, maybe Blizzard will do some minor adjustments to bring the low performers up a bit... one can hope. But it will be an incredibly fun expansion regardless. (Then again, I play fire mage so I'll certainly be eating good lol)

      Cataclysm is a better WotLK in every possible way, except it has 1 fewer raid tiers and no proper equivalent of 10 Man Normal Raid difficulty from WotLK(LFR is NOT it).
      Everything else is better. Class design in Cata was peak until SL/DF, dungeon and raid mechanics and overall quality went up a lot, PVP was also peak until SL/DF, leveling 1-60 and 80-85 are much better, itemization and item progression peaked in Cata until DF, the tabard reputations were polished and rewards were well done too, the badges were polished by turning them into justice/valor.
      And you have a dungeon tier for every raid tier in Cata, I think only Legion had that as well.

    TL;DR you want a resto druid, resto druid and holy pally are flavor of the month in cata. Mained a holy priest in cata, regen was really bad compared to the other healers I played. Chakra strips you of versatility and you make the other healers OOM more because you can barely help on the tank without OOMing. You still have a niche - prayer on spread out ranged - but arguably resto druids do it better and their lifebloom on the tank is much more help than you can provide.
    Holy might be a mess but Disc is still very solid, being the only disc priest in a 25 is an absolute treat to play.

    19:53 doesn't look like UH DK boosts shadow priest's disease damage any longer in cata. The tooltip says 'increases damage taken from YOUR diseases by 30%". I assume that's deliberate wording. And as a shadow main I'd be glad about it too if we're not dependent on having an UH DK in the raid anymore.

      On the plus side, the PvP was fantastic and it is the most alt friendly expansion the game has ever had. The raid fights are more difficult, and getting heroic kills will likely take longer. My biggest concern is people not willing to give it a chance... before Classic was announced I had gone back through and played every version of the game from Vanilla to MoP; after removing my rose colored glasses I'm surprised how well it holds up.
      The flaws it has are few but quite noticeable. The middle tier was great but much shorter (really could have used the water raid counterpart), and the final tier was a bit of a letdown and had no world content. The heroic dungeons at launch were the best batch we've ever had, but then we were funneled into two troll dungeons and three dungeons for the final patch. In general, everything is frontloaded and there is LESS content to do as the expansion goes on.
      They really should look at keeping the previous two raid and dungeon tiers viable as the expansion goes on. If they wanted to go the extra mile it could be made into an amazing expansion if they added another raid in the second tier, redid the final tier, and added world content akin to the timeless isle with 4.3. It was SOOOOO close.

    One thing to mention about demo lock is that, yeah it can do top DPS but from experience on Apollo wow cataclysm private server, it's typically considered one of the most difficult specs to play and min max rotation wise. You have to do alot of pet management and you have alot of CD's to pop at the right time and your meta is not on a fixed CD and will naturally not align with your demonsoul or trinket CDs after the first cast, making it pretty tricky. It also requires a pre-pull mastery item set u use to pop meta and swap back to normal gear just before the pull.

      ​@@thewinner4me816Fury in Cata is sadly not much fun to play because you're often rage starved. Meanwhile Arms feels like it has infinite rage and you need to constantly hit a ton of heroic strike/cleave to keep it down (stance dancing means you're effectively capped at 75 rage so you have to spend early and only pool a little bit for Colossus Smash windows).
