Need help deciding my main class and spec for The War Within

Community General Discussion
1

I intend to use that character for all kinds of content, but mainly low-ranked pvp, low-to-medium keys, and not super competitive raids.

I know that it can be very personal, so to be more specific, here are some criteria, ranked in importance:

Mandatory

  • It has to be a Gnome. So, no Paladin, Druid, Shaman, Demon Hunter, or Evoker.

High Importance

  • Not many buttons
  • No pets/summons to keep track of (reviving/healing the pets for example)

Medium Importance

  • Self-sustainable (self-healing or some other survivability)
  • I generally don’t enjoy healing specs.

Medium-Low Importance

  • I prefer seeing one “big number” damage over multiple small attacks.
  • Having high mobility would be nice.
  • Having nice graphical effects would be preferred.

Thanks in advance.

I would have to say frost mage/ww monk/ frost dk then for you i would advise making a trail of each and testing them out apart from that nothing else i can say as you are very specific on what you want.

hunter Bm .

4

Warrior or death knight. Both of them got some healing, both of them are plate characters so you have more armor. 3th option is monk. You have to try them and see which one is cool for you.

You get gnome hunter, MarkMan ! Do not allow a pet , say LonerWolf and if the group ask you , tell them NO this is bad and the worst and terrible that thehunter get to say they do not need the pet to be the MarkMan ! And then RUIN this game for pet to do the heroicsm spell

6

yes. im with the guys above. Hunter is the way

With this hat, gnomes can be all classes:

But maybe give windwalker monk or fury warrior a try.

8

Survival hunter.

Grab a sheet of paper.

Fold up the paper numerous times then tear it up along the creases.

Write the names of each race onto a stripe of paper and separate them into its own “race” pile.

Write the names of each class onto a stripe of paper and separate them into its own “class” pile.

Now grab a hat, toss the “race” pile into it and give it a vigorous shake, then pick a random piece of paper from it. That’ll be your race.

Now do the same with the “class” pile. That’ll be your class.

Flip a coin, Heads = Male, Tails = Female

Congratulations, you now have your character. :+1:

Seems like it’s either WW Monk or MM hunter.

WW for better sustain (self-heal is okay-ish but it’s still better than Exhilaration) and tank/heal offspec (you can play FW healer as pseudo-DPS). Good mobility overall - FSK, 1 to 3 rolls (or torpedos), tiger’s lust for speed burst and de-root/snare.

MM for juicy aimed shot slaps with kinda less amount of buttons and more straight-forward rotation. Pet is optional for utility like BL (can’t use Spirit Mend in MM so will not cover that one). Less survivability but still have some (turtle/bear/fd/sotf). Disengage and Cheetah for speed.

Also, maybe Fury Warrior – not many buttons to press, good self-sustain, okay-ish mobility with leap and charges, good animations. For big numbers you can switch to Arms. Also, zug.

Obliterate build frost DK hits every point you’re looking for. Has an easy rotation with not many buttons, has no pets you have to look after, does individual big crits, has decent sustained healing, in TWW rider of the apocalypse also gives decent mobility.

there is a trade off,

Hunter for mobility and big numbers

DK for big numbers and survivability

18

forgot about that xD so yeah dk

Shadow Priest, mindbender w dark ascension wings build.
Use the glyph to reduce shadow form (it’s much better than it used to be).

  • Gnome :white_check_mark:
  • Low buttons? Can be if you pick the right talents, if you are going to copy paste from a website then I can’t help you.
  • No pets/summons :white_check_mark: (tentacles and mindbender do their thing)
  • Self-sustainable :white_check_mark:
  • Big numbers? Sure it has dots but then BOOM BOOM!
  • Good mobility :white_check_mark: if you pick the right talents - speedy feather, speedy bubble, speedy cloud of darkness. No I can’t remember the spell names off the top of my head.
  • Graphical effects? Well it’s purple boogley gorgeousness and the void hero spec in TWW is blue sparkly gorgeousness. :white_check_mark:
