When I was thinking about which class to pick and felt confused on the inside as most of you guys, suddenly I just allowed myself to not know exactly and just pick one, while leaving an option to re-roll. Or even level both of the toons, more or less simultaneously. I feel like the more personally appealing choice might become clear on the way.
Basically, this idea of "commitment" is somewhat stress inducing. Relax. Isn't there enough stress in your life already?
P.S. I reckon this might not be suitable for powerlevelers, looking forward to be ahead of the pack. For those of you – well, good luck :smile:
I can't decide if I want to go feral druid or mage, been bugging me since they announced classic!
If you roll feral druid what is your plan for end game? I'm not really up to speed on druids but I thought there weren't many chances for them in raids. I ask because I'm really considering shaman but I don't want to be pigeon-holed into a healer.
I'm planning on going feral dps and ofc off tank if needed but if you look at for example shedothedruid he really makes it work, I love classes/specs where you need to go the extra mile to get the maximum out of the spec.
Some of the tips and tricks from shedo is very interesting when it comes to feral dps, for example that you have to grind a 29 weapon from gnomeregan that has 3 charges and increases your attack speed by 50% for 30s. Apparently that weapon on feral dps is better than atiesh since the attack speed is way better than the stats atiesh offers.
I also considered shaman but it doesn't look like there is as much you can do to keep yourself up to pace with the pack unless you roll resto shaman sadly, I may be wrong thought.
It's hard for everyone to choose. But fortunately vanilla has no class that 'sucks'. Only some specs are worse than others and even they are good in some circumstances (like oomkin is good at PvP). Chances are you'll never hate the class you're playing. But believe me you'll envy some ..
Big dick warriors!
I think that everyone should pick whatever he/she likes playing. However you might consider what classes will be in demand. I have prepared this table based on 'ideal raid composition' proposed by Tips Out. A lot of people agree with him although certainly not every guild will follow this particular class split. I've also used Elysium census data (limited to lvl 60).
Desirability is calculated with formula:
desirability = (1 / class population percentage) * (available raid spots / 40) / 2 * 100
It certainly is not perfect, but it gives you some idea which classes will be in demand and how hard will it be to find yourself in raiding guild. It's also hard to say if mages will be as popular once classic hits (although I find it very probable).
