Hi, I have doubts about which of these two classes to main for TWW. I’m looking for an all-around class that can handle most content without too much worry (I’m not aiming to do +31 in Mythic Plus, for example). I like both classes, but I can’t quite decide on one. The pros and cons that I see are:
Demon Hunter (DH): Pros:
- Excellent mobility
- Good transmogrification options (mog)
- Solid damage
- Historically viable in Mythic+ and raids usually bring one for the buff it provides
Cons:
- The dash build doesn’t quite appeal to me due to the associated bugs (being launched unexpectedly, going through the floor, etc.)
Paladin: Pros:
- Good damage (though not as flexible as DH; you have to choose between single-target or AoE)
- Good survival and utility
- Good mog options
- Usually good for raid progression
Cons:
- Retribution can be very unstable; there are times when it seems like developers forget about that spec, and it doesn’t deal damage. This makes it challenging to bring to Mythic+.
My main role is usually DPS, but I could adopt another role if necessary. This expansion, I’ve mained Warlock for a change, but the downside is that if it doesn’t deal damage, it contributes little to Mythic+.
Again, I like both classes. I’ve been playing DH since Legion, but I’m concerned about the dash build due to the issues mentioned above. I’ve been playing Paladin recently, and it’s a class fantasy that appeals to me just like DH. However, I’m worried because I know Retribution isn’t usually treated well in terms of balancing (it being in a good state currently seems rarer than not, and from what I’ve read on forums, Retribution Paladins are already expecting nerfs).
I’ll post this in the Paladin subforum as well to get opinions from players of both classes. Thanks in advance.
