WOW - Worst Class?

Lord-Jaffa said:
Suggest you get better gear then, ive been ONE Shot by mages in my guild, nice 5k pyroblast. And warlocks are the most overpowered class in the game for 1v1 pvp, impossible to beat a good one. L2p :P

i dont need to 'l2p'
every warrior ive spoke to feels the same about locks/mages. unless the warrior is mc/aq+ equipped then he might have a chance but otherwise just forget it.
ive spoke to mages and theyve actually said they go out and pick off warriors as its a easy kill for them.
a well played lock can eat every other class though
 
Id consider pally fairly well gimped tbh, the best pvp build has now been removed from game (reckoning bomb) leaving a class that has fairly insane survivability but all the killing power of a wet paper towel.

Definitely prefering rogue (combat swords). Id consider locks, rogues and mages and priests as the best pvp classes. Warriors have a hard time, druids a little easier (yes you complain that dont have killing power of rogue etc - your not SUPPOSED to your hybrid - at least you have some form of dps) and Pallys kinda low. Hunters are very much rock/paper/scissors as certain classes they will utterly destroy but have a hard time with others.
 
Had a rank14/AQ40/full tier 2 druid, quality class to play i had best premade on haomarush for well over 5 months until i got perm banned and my account got fully suspended. i got banned in April.

Druids r not that much gimped people just need to l2p and know the in and outs of every other class, i still got vids i frapsed vs tier2.5 SL locks rank14 warriors, shadowpriests and a lot of other classes for a movie i was gonna do before i got banned.

druids = by far best WOW class, was a lot more fun before shadowmeld was nerfed tho, i could do some crazy tricks with shadowmeld! :) and yes ive pld every other class in wow at 60 and all fully epic, hence the reason i was fully banned for account sharing and other things :)

How are druids not gimped? the fact that with the best Cat form items in the game you'll operate on the level of a rogue just entering MC is a sign for sure?
the fact that everything that makes our class unique is so poor and rubbish that the only reason we can get into raids is because we can heal well and cast MotW.
I dunno about you, but when I rolled a druid, I made him because I liked the idea of being able to shapeshift into different forms to fulfill a roll, not be a healbot
And spare me the whole "it would be imba to DPS like a rogue," look at shadowpriests!

Druids have fair DPS in cat form and can tank very well in dire bear. Your a hybrid. You DO im afraid seem to be expecting rogue DPS in cat form and warrior tanking abilities while being able to out-heal a priest. The point is the class is HYBRID you will NEVER be able to out-do any "pure" class on its main strength or there would be little point to that class.

As a druid if your wanting to spend your time in cat form and still destroy ppl you might as well quit now, the whole point is that you use all your forms depending on the circumstance. Very few ppl (I think) would call the druid gimped - you have far too many options available depending on your opponent. As a general guide see below.

Your up against a:
Warrior: Use caster form as your negating his armour and using snare effects to keep him at range.
Rogue : Go bear form and keep him infront of you
Pally: Anything you like really
Mage: Cat for heavier dps
Lock: See mage
Hunter: Probably bear/caster mix
Shaman: Dunno
Priest: See mage and pray

With all the above if they are a melee class be ready to hit a heal over time and go bear while u heal up.

In all the above tho get used to when to switch forms for healing/snare etc. Have a read of the druid forums - there will be a dueling guide with what to do when, against what.

If you want to DPS roll a lock/mage/rogue

Wow saved me the time mate, couldn't agree more, learn to play a druid and its suprising how well you can do.

Heres my ct profile http://ctprofiles.net/3537697 my gear isnt epic by any means, but I know to play my class.

Shamens, Priests and Mage's I find very hard to take on 1v1 though, I rarely attack then by myself, due to the shamens BS ability to heal himself to nearly full when ive hit the crap out of em. Mage just one shot me all the time, or ice block themselves so I get done by their backup.... as for Priests - see Shamen.
 
I wouldn't say there were any "bad" classes, each class has a role to perform and it depends on which role you like to play.

This goes for PvP and raiding (however some guilds like shoehorning classes to play a certain way but this shouldn't really be necessary most of the time *remembers the hunter successfully tanking Nefarion*)

Choose something you like doing and choose a class that complements that

Exactly :)
NEVER expect a hybrid to beat a pure class without using its versatility.

Man I remember playing against you on my old rogue. It's kinda lame you got banned for account sharing though, not like it's cheating or making the game unfair or anything. I admit you did play the class pretty well though.
 
remember u also good old SS vs TM days,

haha was quality ill be back when TBC is released tho just not sure what class to roll probably another druid again!

What exactly did you get banned for if you don't mind me asking? I've just come back and started afresh on Neptulon as a Night Elf Rogue. Few people of OcUK playing on here just they awaiting TBC to come out.

Thats interesting we talking 5 man's here? If shamans are pulling then they need to "l2p". Only should a warrior pull mobs.

never had a problem in 10 20 or 40 man raids but I guess as you say thats because people know how to play, tbh I don't think some people take 5mans seriously any more, I know I've been complacent in scholo and stuff because I can bang right through it without stopping as long as the casters can keep up with mana (the three I regularly do it with can) its just the pickup mage or whatever, since we have a prot tank, holy/disc priest, feral druid and some crazy config of 'lock

Semiskimmed said:
what is it you are disagreeing with exactly? a good tank wont do damage, itll just keep aggro and take damage. prot tanks just cant keep up with anyone for doing damage. the only time a prot tank will excel in pvp is in alterac valley where they can tank the npcs.
ubrs is a tricky instance in places for pulling adds, but its striaght forward if you have a decent group, ive often tanked 3-4 mobs in there at once as we have had pats and stuff come in. the worst things in there are the huge dragonkins though, they hit VERY hard and i wouldnt like to get 2 of those at any one time on a regular basis.

yeah I screwed up there and got sidetracked sorry :)

I was going to mention AV as a great place for prot warriors, plus it scares the hell out of people when you wade in and hack the stuffing out of people for three or four minutes without going down. :)

yeah I love UBRS when there are two tanks that know how to play, there is nothing as satisfying as that instance and a couple tauren warriors shoulder to shoulder keeping half a dozen mobs under control without breaking a sweat. Just a couple weeks ago I saved a run from a horrific pull though a patrol, we ended up with about 15 humanoids and dragonkin running riot until me and another guy went berserk with challenging shouts, warstomps and hamstrings :D

The Dragonkin Fire captains? (Shudder) I've had a whole group on me once three kin, one being the captain and I very nearly died twice (shield wall & health potions + Conc blow)

I also discovered that I can actually tank Drakki quite easily which is interesting because I always thought I did really badly there.

Shaman: Dunno

Shaman vs Druid is a tough fight.

Shaman can remove the healing over time spells. so it forces you to cast healing touch, which is a long cast, esp when shamans can interrupt with earth shock.

I think cat form is the best, just to out dps the shaman.
 
av is a decent place for a prot tank as you need a tank when fighting the npc's :D

im an orc warrior myself and i have no problems tanking drakki or any of the dragonkins but i do need a healer up by backside through the fight to keep me up. i only recently found out too that taurens have +5% health which goes for them, kind of makes me wish i rolled tauren warrior instead but i think theyre just too bulky and take up too much of the screen for me. especially in enclosed instances, no one can see past their shoulders lol
 
hunters suck becuase thier boring and have a bad name for gold mining.


Rogue`s combat all the way...top dmg metres baby haha

I have a 60 Hunter on Eonar, but your right they do get boring I don't play mine anymore, now have a Shadow Priest on Al'Akir who melts faces, my rogue buddy is yet to beat me at a duel :D
 
Yup had a 60 Hunter and got rid of it in the end. Got really boring and it seemed like a chore playing it. I was autoshotting in raids and alt tabbed and always spending time on alts when not raiding.
