For those you who remember me, a Gares message

Gares of War's picture

Gares of War — Tue, 02/22/2011 - 13:57

So, it has been quite a while since I have been on these forums, I wanted to say hello to all those who remember me from the longm, long ago, and the far, far away.   I was thinking about coming back very soon, but not as my warrior.  He was fun, but I wanted to try something new.  Does anyone have a suggestion of a class that I can work on?  I was coming back casual so it would take me forever and a day to get to 85 so it doesn't matter to me, nor do I seek a raid spot.  I want to hear suggestions of classes people have been pleased with in the new expansion.

 

Thanks my chuweros and see you soon!

Gares of War — Wed, 02/23/2011 - 14:35

I am between worgen druid and worgen mage, the next best 2 out of 3 comments win it.  Please comment now!  I am going to get the game tonight!  I lied about next week!

Well..... lets compare the

Alprazalam — Thu, 02/24/2011 - 02:32

Well..... lets compare the pros and cons of mages and druids.

 

Mages.  Pros.  Burn things, Burn things, Burn things.  Tired of burning (how could u be) but then go frost and Freeze things, Freeze things, Freeze things, or go arcane and..... arcane things.  On a more serious note, blink, slowfall, teleport.  These three things when just running around and having fun are AMAZING.  Also.... not having to buy food EVER is the greatest thing.  LOTS of spells.

 

Mages.  Cons.  90% of mages are idiots (its true, look at Pancakes, Stipe, etc).  Having ppl whisper you for ports all the time (but u can make gold in that).  People thing that you can carry them to victory just becasue ur a mage (this is true, idk how many times i've done a BG or H random and someone I qued with said, 'We'll be alright, we have 4 mages in the WSG).  LOTS of spells.

 

Druids.  Pros.  You can play every role.  tank, melee, range, and healer.  Saying this, you are a warrior, a rogue, a ele sham (closest thing I can think of to that rotation), and a holy priest in one class.  Instant flight form, 50% movement speed in water, faster movement out doors (travel form).  etc.

Druids.  Cons.  Ppl will always assume you are playing a spec that you aren't.  If you decide to play different specs, thats alot of gear to have in ur bags and alot of gear to grind.  Also, if you use mods (especially bartender) it is a PAIN in the ASS to set that shit up.

Yeah. I get whispered to tank

cromi — Thu, 02/24/2011 - 02:50

Yeah. I get whispered to tank or heal randoms every day.

And with 3 seperate speccs. Heals/heals/kitteh/boomkin okay 4. I spend about 400g a week in respeccs. And that's just between Resto talents on a good week. But with 3 sets of gear my bag is full. But I can pretty much do everything. Though I'm only going to be resto in all situations that are not dailys so it's probably superfluous.

Pros. You can do everything so it's basically hey invite me. You don't wear cloth. You can find a mage that will pvp with you so they blow shit up and you just sit in the back listening to Sublime and casting the occasional lifebloom. Tree wrath.

So the choice is clear. Become a pally.

I'd vote for one of your favorite animals:

Otherwise, Druid. Be a dog, or a cat, or a bear, or a bird, or a seal, or a boomkin ...

you get a different flying

cromi — Wed, 02/23/2011 - 14:38

you get a different flying mount as a worgen druid. It's not purple.

Besides you're a druid which means automatic win.

DUDE!!!!!  Mage it up.  MAGE

Alprazalam — Wed, 02/23/2011 - 05:34

DUDE!!!!!  Mage it up.  MAGE MAGE MAGE MAGE!!!    I have a plan........ of 5 fire mages running around BGs, and all we do... is sheep people, and then we all just sit there and cast pyroblast at the small itty bitty, helpless, defenseless, piece of trash, baby koala killin' horde.  But in all seriousness, there are ALOT of buttons with mages.... alot of fun buttons.

 

I just went boomkin on my druid (lvl 85) and the rotation is fun, but its extremely squishy.  Alot more squishier than my mage.

 

I also just started lvling a hunter, he's lvl 15 and its really freaking fun.

Shihli — Tue, 02/22/2011 - 18:21

Although I don't play the game at all anymore, I always found Shamans and Druids to be bang-up options for "fun" characters.  Nearly-limitless flexibility is always a good thing.

Leveling an enhancement shaman is one of the most enjoyable things you can do.

Derchlon — Tue, 02/22/2011 - 18:03

I've always been pleased with shamans.  Also, Hunter is a fun choice.  Hunters are really easy to level, but the class is really clunky compared to what you had with your warrior.

What do you want to do?  Tank some more?  DPS?  Toss heals around?  Let's dialogue on it a bit.

Atar — Tue, 02/22/2011 - 17:13

You know I'm going to tell you to play a feral druid.  Though boomkin has been kinda fun!

I second that!! You want to

primistic — Tue, 02/22/2011 - 17:54

I second that!! You want to heal, dps, ranged dps or back to your old ways to tank, also can..  :)
