Best class for beginner

Hello guys!

I would like to start to play arena. Which class would be better for me? I never play arena before. Should I start to play healer or dd? I have a feeling that playing healer on arena more difficult then dd.
Will be appreciate for all of your advises.

P.s. not DH :wink:

To be honest - play whatever you like and find some friends to play with regularly. Don’t rely on LFG - because it’s just toxic and frustrating. If you really have no other choice play meele and try to play meele/healer or meelecleave in 3s.

If you enjoy any caster more. Then you need to find a friend and play on voice com. You might have harder time but you will have way more fun.

Yea play what ever suits u well

Don’t play whatever suits you, 'cos if you play smth rly not meta and you don’t live in this game, you will not be able to find games. While finding friends is of course best way to progress, if you’re a casual player that pops in a few times a week but cannot say, if they will be online next day, LFG is prob going to be your only option.

Relatively easy to get going and play at decent level (of course to master each of them, it’s completely different story):

  • Melee: Rogue, DK, WW (since you ruled out DH, which is by far best start)
  • Casters: Lock, Mage (fire in particular)
  • Healer: Holy Pala, Mistweaver Monk
  • Tank(?): Bear, Prot Pala

At a bit harder level, you can throw in surv hunter, disc priest, resto druid.

DPS vs Healer: DPS might be easier to start, but as a healer you’ll prob have better time finding people to play with (though be prepared for hell of toxicity and slurrs, as every insecure person will try to blame and insult you. Just don’t get tilted by that and find people who are friendly and polite).

If you want to be able to just spam queues and practice as much as possible, you should play a healer. It’s difficult to find people to play with, if you are an absolute beginner without any achievements, especially as DD.

DH is by far easiest, but there are some other choices:
These are the classes, that are easy to play, and with the right gear, you do not need to do anything to win:

Melee: assa rogue, ww monk
Healer: mw monk, holy paladin
Caster: destro Lock, fire Mage

Thank you very much for response.
Thinking between mage and monk now :slight_smile:

Mage is very hard on a high lvl what are u more of a meele Player or a caster u have To find out also :slight_smile:

Monk will probably do you well. Very strong at the moment too.

Enough with that nonsense already, jesus…
Mage has never been in his history more hard in HL than any other class. That’s a bs that has been going on since BC with 0 back up to that statement… How hard is it for the most overbuffed class along with rogue to actually perform HL ??

Would recommended you to Just start spamming 2s until you get more familier with how specs usually play in arena, would recommend same classes as the others did above :slight_smile: especially Hpally feels pretty friendly to start with since you got so many safety nets

Ok i dont argue with u here i said high Level like Above 2.6

Everything is easy, there are no “hard to play” classes.

But you’re also mistaken about healers being harder to play in arena than dps. Healing is way overtuned and forgiving, geared Holy pal, Resto druid or MW monk can fuk up all they want, but if they’re able to throw out couple of heals, everything will be Gucci. Just position yourself correctly to avoid LoSing yourself. If you fuk up as a dps - mismanage your CDs, switches, CCs, it will have a bigger negative impact on the outcome.

On the other hand, if you wanna be a player that makes or breaks the game, determines the outcome - roll dps.

call it above 5.3k xp if you want… that’s never change the fact that mage has NEVER been more harder than any other class in HL.

?

Tentacles are in the game for 1 month vs 15 years of Arena. What are you trying to say?

you saying healers are more forgiving is just precious and in partiuclar this patch, that’s what I’m trying to say.

No firemage is actually not hard

Well, I decided to do DH😁
And with my 0 experience on arena , me and one affli lock from lfggot something like 1.4k.
DH doesn’t have any corrapts.
I think it is ridiculous. I understand that it is just because of the class not because of my “awesome” skill.
Gonna practice on it while trying to get some gear on mage and start to play arena on it.

Do it i wish u the best luck
