For now I'm slightly leaning towards Druid, although I have no idea which faction I'd choose so I'm still slightly lost.

I think the Druid choice is a lot more versatile - personally it's what I would pick :) If you use this tool it might help you choose between Night Elf or Tauren druid.

It seems like Night Elf is levels above Tauren in terms of combat advantages but at the same time Night Elves look very weird in their druid forms. I've heard that Alliance would generally be better in pre-made battlegrounds and Horde would be optimal for PuG battlegrounds, do you know if that'll have any relevancy in Classic? Just wondering since that might be a good reason to go Alliance.

Anyways, I have played both Druid and Paladin in raids as healers so you can ask me anything you would like about them :)

In Classic, are Druids generally accepted as off-tanks by most guilds for raids? Because if that's an option then that would be what I would strive for. Do bears work well for tanking in dungeons as well, or are they more of a choice if there's nothing else? I know you said that you healed in raids, but I take it as you also know what tanks there were.

Thanks in advance!

SweaterMonster Bear druids are kinda generally considered off-tanks but I am not sure if that's the right naming. You can sometimes main tank certain bosses. It depends on whether you need the benefits of warrior or druid on the specific encounter. As bear you can tank dungeons with ease. I have tanked all dungeons on my druid while levelling and it was good.

I think I'm going to roll a Dwarf Priest to play with friends and a Night Elf Hunter to level when playing alone.

Edit: I'm also thinking of playing a Druid maybe for gathering, could be a nice healer or off-tank. Idk, I wanna play everything!!

That sounds like a good plan that will let you enjoy both worlds :)

I'm far too invested into the priest fantasy to not main priest :) On the days I find myself contemplating the idea of maining mage, I just think about those sweet, sweet, https://www.wowhead.com/item-set=202/vestments-of-prophecy and immediately I remember my calling. :mrgreen:

Holy paladin. It's my original main, and I haven't healed since the end of Wrath. Looking forward to healing again!

Going to be going Paladin. Fairly easy if slow/boring leveling, and always in demand for groups. What's not to like?

I will start classic with an Undead Mage. When I first started in 2004 I began with a Rogue main but then started a Troll Mage alt which quickly became my main. Over the last 14 years I've played all the classes but have stuck with my mage and rogue through thick and thin. I think I will start a Troll rogue once I have hit 60 on the mage. After that I may make another shaman. hopefully classic is around for along time so that I can actually gear all of my alts this time.

Think I've finally decided on Undead shadow priest.

I've got a lot of residual Gurubashi arena based salt that I need to take out on the alliance.
