Which class is your favorite?

Of the original 9 classes (Warrior, Paladin, Rogue, Hunter, Mage, Priest, Druid, Shaman, and Warlock), which one is your favorite?

(I left of Death Knights because they are both a hero class, and aren't even released yet.)

Which ever are the Skeletons, zombie, undead whatever. They are the coolest.
I am not voting 'cause I don't remember their names

Those are one the races, not the classes.

The races are:
Undead, Orcs, Tauren (minotaur like cow-people), Trolls, and Blood Elves (elves gone evil) for the Horde,
and Humans, Dwarves, Night Elves (nature aligned elves), Gnomes, and Draenei (space faring goat people. or something like that.) for the Alliance.

Classes are how the character fights:
Warrior - Sword and shield, go out and bash stuff, chop stuff, kill stuff.
Paladin - Sword and shield again, also knows a few holy spells to heal and buff.
Rogue - They do it from behind. With pointy objects.
Hunter - Shoots from afar, and can tame pets to help them keep the enemy away.
Mage - Fire, ice, and arcane magics. Lots of spells = lots of destruction.
Priest - Groups are always looking for them. They heal stuff.
Druid - Turn into an animal and bash away, or stay back and cast spells. Either way.
Shaman - Totems and spells of elemental origin. Can also turn into a spirit wolf.
Warlock - Curses, demons, and the ability to make people run around in circles in fear.

Paladin's.
Because they mix the best of all elements.

Hunter, sounds the most like an archer.
Shouldn't that be its own class?

Well, the obvious answer is the Warlocks because for 2.5 years, thats what I played and you all know by now that everything I touch is 100% pure awesomeness.

Warlock = SOOO MUCH FREAKING DAMAGE IS NOT EVEN FAIR TO WHOEVER I AM DUELING!!!!

I played as a druid for about a year and a half. I say that they are one of the best PvP classes. I normally just did arena and went around ganking people. Ganking never gets old....

Hey Tvae .... well put for the rogues !!! >.<

Droooooood

Warlock all the way. Played one since the begining and has always been my favorite class.

Rogue, because they're sneaky, sneaky, sneaky!

i love all my toons tbh, each in their own way

however, for sheer versitility and awesomesauce i would have to vote for warrior

I would be glad if they make a necromancer!:D

Retribution Paladin = Win Paladin

i have an 80 of every class horde and ally sooo idk really

I do not play WoW, but I know if I did, I would opt for the priest.

I loved my warlock dearly once the patch came out that bumped all char to lvl 70 caps because there was a new pet that ruled (forgot the name). Warlocks were also pretty great for instances at that point. But up until then... MAN WERE THEY TERRIBLE! The most fun I had playing every day was with the rogue's. It was awesome being so sneaky :)

Aye they kinda became dodgy around sunwell, pre-nerf, but thankfully the re-jig of their talents made them a lot more viable. I think the pet ur referring to is the felguard btw :)

Warriors, Locks.

Im a tank and as a lock i spread my love, and aids, to everyone!

Felgaurd! That was it!! :D

Shaman is my fav from the classic races but from current content DK all the way!

even trough I usually play with my hunter, my favourite class is warrior :)

I always play as a Warrior...

Dont play anymore, but when I did warrior and paladins by far. Hunter would be my third

warlock(eventhough my main is a hunter) because i like the use of demons as a companion

I choose Druid, even if my current toon is a Priest whom I love. Reason is that Druids are just so versatile. I barely made the decision to roll a new character because a simple change of spec and gear allowed me to be what I wanted as a Druid. However, Heroics grinding took its toll on me and I grew extremely bored of my Restoration Druid. I didn't even have the motivation to farm for a Feral Bear set, even though I had the Two-Hand Mace reward from the Quel'delar quest.

I'll be rolling a Worgen Druid when Cataclysm launches, and by that time my girl will probably be rolling her Alliance toon right alongside me.

Well I've played a Troll Hunter for 2 years, then messed with various alts, from 80 warriors, to 80 priests!

So far my favorite (before quitting WoW pre-Cata)
was an undead Priest, Simple magnificent to me, love casters ever since!:D

I'm guessing Shadow? I loved my shadow priest a few years ago .. was lots of fun.

i was Dual-Specced shadow and Disco, then played out the rest till i retired from WoW as a Holy priest.

i have an 85 warrior on the server draka and he is a beast lol jk but he is pretty well geared

I'm a huntard at heart

dont play any more i think post tbc it has been ruined sint wotlk i have not yet bought catalysm n dont know if i will. but i had a lvl 80 mage 80 druid and 80 hunter in wotlk. mage was my frave pre wotlk :D

Shaman.

Cause of what it represents, and also the all around usefulness. They can do anything except tank, really.

Buff, Melee DPS, ranged DPS, and healing.

I have played a Shaman since the early early days, and they remain to this day my favorite class, despite me having leveling each and every class to atleast level 60(except priest, actually, I can't stand priest...)

Favorite class? Wow, thats a hard one... Ive played every class and honestly I really like them all for different reasons. Favorite pve class Id have to say is Warlock and favorite pvp class Ill go with shammy :P

I love how this is pretty much the only topic my one friend made on this forum and it's still posted in to this day

LOL Yea, I did notice that this thread was created quite a long time ago... just means it was a good topic ;)

I'd have to say I enjoy playing Mage the most Its so easy to get around with teleporting I also never have to buy food or water it's great! But the reason I enjoy playing mage
s the most is because they're so damn over powered.

The only game that I've played where I can choose what stuff I learn is White Knight Chronicles. I chose "paladin" because in that game I sort of became one. I learned healing magic and used a one-handed sword. Obviously, I wouldn't be as strong as a two-handed sword user, but it makes me a little quicker. Plus, I hate using staffs or bows, so the one-handed sword seems like the right choice. I hate to be without healing magic because sometimes you can't rely on others to keep you from dying.

I think since my last post I have changed my mind.... been playing Disc Priest. Love it!! :D

wow, from all the people ive known i though everyone hated hunters haha, i dont play anymore but still thats pretty cool.

Oh, people still hate hunters lol The lack of love for hunters and DKs will always remain :P

hunters own rogues.... flare and trap ftw..
new cloak for hunter all the better...
thieves... bah!!!!
we'l hunt you down

Oh, Hunters for PvP = <3<3 Damn.... now I wanna go play WoW -__-

I hated playing hunters for PvP. Just hated worrying aboutmy pet dying and it's health x__x They still hold a place in my heart for dungeons though, even though nobody wants us..

Found a good blood/unholy balance for DK PvP, though. Tougher to die, with the disease still just annihilating.

try a mm hunter with discp priest... or a afflic warlock.. ownage

My fav class is the priest but not the priest as you play it today, I love the burning crusade priest i could raid as shadow i wasnt expected to top dps but what i did do was offheal the whole raid while refueling there mana it was a really awesome and unique class/spec back then it felt like a real support class no matter what spec you went.

so yea priest during burning crusade.

if we had to go by cata class's then probably feral druid right now i really love my drood.

yes, shadow p, can do surpisingly good dps and support balance... but a druid or lock or even a survival hunter gives more dot.... even in raids... locks heathstone and haunt are healing enough... and everyone loves the portal..8)

I hatedddd lock for PvP which is funny cause my mains a lock -and- they tend to be badass at it :P Dunno why just never got the hang of it... but as a BM hunter its nice cause if you find a good hiding spot you can do some good damage ;) Most recently Disc Priest is awesome in PvP and PvE- which I didnt expect.. was healer and DPSing better then anyone in dungeons.. very OP, im sure that will change soon though- yay for patches constantly changing everything hah

I wanna play WoW again x____x

I played hunter for a while, till I rolled DK on a new server. Tried going back a while ago, but couldn't get the hang of a ton of things 4.0 changed. Always hated locks for PvP, even though their DoTS were a bi**h if you got them on you yourself. I remember playing frost mage for PvP back in TBC, they were just nasty. PoM Pyro was sweet too, I remember hearing they took it out but I never actually looked into it and seen if they did. It was the funnest to gank around Booty Bay with. 1 hitting anybody 45 and lower when you were at 70 lol.

Haha, thats how I feel too every time I talk about it :P But yea, going back after any big patch or expansion sucks no matter what, just gotta get used to it again... see! Glad Im not the only one. People call me crazy for not liking locks in PvP- I mean yea- the dots can be brutal but combined with the fact that locks are squishy and the fact that their cast time is so long makes me not like them... frost mages did used to be insane. Not one of my fac classes though... I got my mage to like.... 65 or something? I really liked arcane but some reason I hated playing fire or frost. Just wasnt my thing :P

I think the reason I struggled with the change was my hunter was from TBC, and Wrath came out, so I renewed my account and made a DK right away lol. So I missed all the WotLK hunter changes, and the Cata changes. It's a total class redesign when you're up at 55, you have to change everything. It was nuts so I gave up xD

Locks are just not fun for me. I don't like playing full out DoT, I like playing where I can just deal the damage at one time repeatedly. DK is a good balance for me, because it adds a DoT with most of the attacks anyway. I love that class and the way it's built. I'm excited to see more Hero classes in the future, just hoping for a Battlemage in the future!

Oh wow- yea that will def do it. Just missing any expansion is hard to get back with it- but especially so with Cata. Ive only been playing since BC so I dont know what it was like before that (expansion/game change-wise)- but the changes that came about with Cata were extreme. Some good changes, but overall a very revamped game which is why I think a lot of people have quit since then.

I dont like like simply DoT-ing either, which is why I preferred Demonology spec overall. Nice combo DoTs, casted spells and pet abilites. I used to really like DKs but since Cata I dont have the hang of them anymore :P Are they coming out with more hero classes eventually? I heard they werent but Id love to see more as well.... Necromancer class would kick ass but I have a feeling Necro + WoW = laaaaaaaag :P

Hunter or Rogue ... Those are the only classes I find appealing.

Hunter: my first and last character. I haven't made anything else, I haven't tried anything else I probably never will

I love warrior. Stance dance, focus bash and pure ownage.

I haven't played recently. Did they add balance changes to the warrior. Last I checked hunters could kite them around in circles all day

Death Knight :D !

Fury or Arms warrior could always destroy a hunter, arms especially easy. If the warrior was good at least. They could ever since Burning Crusades.

As marksman hunter I could always keep warriors away from me. Double disengage, permanent slows, and a pet immobilize

At level 70 and 80? Cause my brother has a warrior and I always did pvp and arenas with it, rarely had trouble with hunters.

Blood Rage, charge, intercept, intimidating shout sends the pet running. Then just disarm, mortal strike, execute. dead. If not, by the time I mortal strike my intercept will be back up.

If the hunter gets a jump on me, no point in chasing a hunter down, so put on shield, then shield wall, build rage up on the pet. Then wait for intercept to recycle.

That's all without using an trinkets to get out of effects. Hunters are easy with warriors.

Hunters are easy with everyone but rogues. Blizzard made hunters suck in high level pvp. But low level pvp they are OP. :p

You know… I never got the hang of rogues. I dunno what it is, dunno why…. just never could. Tried rogue in PvP and I was absolutely horrible. >.>

I never wanted to do a rogue, because you waste all that time to get to 70 or 80, then when you do areana's you're there first target 90% of the time. You'd get maybe one combo off if you're lucky and then just watch the rest of the game.

Well, I wanted to experience every single class… and rogue ended up being the last one I tried. Thought it would be all sortsa fun being all stealthy and sneaky in general lol Just never got into in like I did with other classes.

My brother played to, so we basically only had to level half the classes each. He made a rouge, they're fun if you do world PVP, you can kill the squishy's before they even get unstunned, because not a lot of people walk around with resilience gear on. Talking about it makes me want to play WoW again, but I know it'll only last a week. lol

I know, I feel the same way… damn random urges haha

I play a rogue. I realized that if you don't kill the target in the first 10 seconds youre probably dead. Too bad spambush stopped working at 70

Huntards for the win! lol

Its all about warriors. Tanking is epic and I own in battlegrounds

I'm rather partial to the priests myself. I don't know what it is about healers that I'm so fond of but I'm good at it. Without a good healer, the tank doesn't live. If the tank doesn't live then all the DPS get aggroed. If all the DPS get aggroed then it's a 50/50 chance for a party wipe. (That's probably why the healer gets the blame more than 60% of the time.) But even a good healer can't float without a DECENT tank.

I'm practically wasting my breath because most of you already know what I'm talking about. :P

Mmmmm when I last played Disc priests were OP and could fully DPS/heal. It made me all warm inside <3

They're still super OP. Without healing at all. o.O

Saw a screenshot of a disc priest bubbling all the health in a heroic Deathwing. That's right. Not one point of health healed, because there wasn't one taken on his watch.

THAT'S CRAZY.


Frost DK's also got a big of a buff, prot warriors still can't die in PvP, and rogues still destroy everyone. Locks got buffed some PvP-wise anyways, and everyone else is about the same. Except the Shamans. More nerfs every patch the poor guys..

Whaaaa? That is crazy lol It was really fun though... maybe OP and not fair.... but def fun :D

Man, poor shammies always get nerfed :( Shammy is what got me to fall in love with PvP. They used to be sooooo badazz O_O Although, I hated PvP with a lock, so Im glad they buff'd. Others may argue with me on that though hah

My low level lock pvp: fear, dots, point and laugh

Lock was my first char and I hated PvP with her. Dunno if that’s cause they sucked back in the day at it… or if *I* just sucked at lock PvP…. could be either :P

Lock was my brothers first character, they're boring to play. PvP is basically cast a few spells and spam fear. DPS PvE is always boring, just do a rotation and watch your surrounds. I never messed with a Lock much, but it was boring when I play it and watched my brother.

I like how Crae changed his opinions on warriors after I mentioned how to easily kill a hunter. He seems rather clueless.

Actually I don't like playing against warriors but I like playing my warrior. Just got into some PvPing. And I kill everyone. Mwahaha

I thought you said you killed Warriors easy with your hunter lol....

Doesn't mean I don't like playing against them. I don't like pvp as my hunter and I can't absolutely own warriors as my warrior. I don't really like pvp in general. The alliance is all fully geared and no one works together

Dang, if Disc Priests are still OP maybe I need to go back and respec my holy priest to a Disc one. =/ Although I would be at a disadvantage given that I'm not used to playing as a Disc priest. So I would know the rotation or the description of the skills AND how I would need to build my talent tree. :P

I'm just sticking with holy...

That's the fun part about MMO's! Respeccing and learning new rotations and whatnot :D

Learning the rotation? 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 and so on? yes super fun.

Not to mention priorities, or maybe it's just DK's like that. I like that we don't have a "rotation." It makes things kinda interesting, and with your procs what you're doing is changing constantly. Gotta pay attention to what's going on and where to be...gah I love it!

So you have a rouge and a warrior now? I thought you said you don't play anymore and before you said you only have a hunter. You sir are all over the place with your story telling lol


The new dungeons fights aren't so much just rotations anymore. You have to be way more aware of your surroundings then you use to be. You also have to be ready to CC when it's your turn. Mages and locks are really the only exception to that. Cause they don't really CC that often, maybe just throw a fear or sheep, but that's nothing.

I reactivated at the request of a few family members because they wanted me to do a raid with them. Made a rogue, warrior, and priest for pvp, healing, and tanking cause I was bored. Not that all over the place. Also turns out I suck at dungeons with my hunter

oh okay, so you're talking about low level pvp lol. I understand now.

Yeah I thought I stated it was low level earlier. I did get my warrior to 50 something though and dk starting gear is op

All this talk about WoW is making me want to play it so I'm downloading it now, probably just going to use my brothers account, don't think I'll play enough to activate mine again. Probably just pvp, he's got full gladiators from last season, going to find a good arena team I think season 11 just started recently.

Season 11 has been out for some time. Not all that much better than last seasons gear. You should try out the deathwing raids.

couple months, not that big of a deal, top teams have full gear, but doubt I'll get that far anyway. and PvE is boring lol, really pointless and repetitive, doesn't require much skill at all.

I like PvE though. Keeps me in the story line and... I'm a achievement whore on WoW. ><"

PvE is a lot more fun if you're the tank. Way too easy to heal. And the fights don't have dps positioning like they did the WotLK

I've done all the roles in PvE, raid healing is by far the most fun, you're not just sitting there pressing a few buttons you actually have to keep track of 25 people. Tanking is worse then DPS imo, not much action going on for tanks, they don't even need to follow a rotation to hold aggro plus low damage output. It's the boringness of a DPS but with lower numbers. PvP is the only way to play.

That's what I like the most - raid healing. It really requires you to play the keyboard like a piano to keep up with so many people at once. Even if you're assigned to only watch over a certain segment it can still get to be quite attention demanding and reflex dependent. A good adrenal rush if you ask me.

I agree with the raid healing thing haha Much more fun when you get to be constantly active.... which is why I could never get into raiding, and never understood why everyone else liked it so much? Like oh, boy! I get to sit here for 3 hours straight, 3 nights a week spamming the same buttons over and over again in the same raids, yay! -__-

I never liked pvp. Horde always loses on my server. Since gear plays a pretty large role in your performance and nearly every alliance player is fully geared I would just get dominated in every battleground so I never bothered with it

I dont really care about losing honestly. Its the constant action that I enjoy the most :P

Its not really constant action on my server. Half the battlegrounds I go into consist of getting the graveyard camped after 5 to 10 minutes in. It really is quite sad

That's why you do arena's that's where it's at. You have to be good if you want to get up high in the ratings though,. No the counter to ever class and when to use what trinkets, it's less about gear in arena's sense most people all have the same gear once you get to a curtain rating.

Most BG's are all team work, not as much skill, it's all about who to target first. Rated BG's are way better, plus if I did BG's I always went in with at least 3 or 4 of my guildies, we dominated Warsong Gulch.

I generally do pretty good with my guildies, who are luckily all fully geared in season 11 arena gear :D
My guild is made up of friends and family and we have our own vent so we coordinate well most of the time. We don't have enough people for rated bgs though. And we are horrible in PvE
