Ret pally, bm hunter or feral druid?

Hey guys,

What spec/class do you guya recommend for tbc classic and why?

Cheers!

I don’t like playing anything except healer, so healer spec for me.

Shamans pair well with ret paladins enhancement or resto or you talking about just BM or feral I would say BM would be a better pick as you would have difficult uptime with a feral

Neither of the classes if u wanna compete in arena, feral druid/hunter for some world pvp. And warlock mage rogue priest if u wanna arena .

I remember seeing hunters in pretty high rating games in arena.

Yeah there was especially in season 1 when people had less resilience as you can blow someone up with The Beast Within but in later seasons they aren’t as common and have a rather high skill ceiling compared to other classes. So yeah if you go Hunter and want to compete higher up you’ll need to be good at the class and then perhaps you can do Resto Druid/Hunter in 2v2 or maybe Resto Druid/Disc Priest/Hunter for 3v3 where the game plan is to outlast and drain your opponents.

Overall if your focus is arena you’ll have an easier time as Warrior, Lock, Rogue, Mage, Resto Druid or Priest. As these are all classes that have good synergy with multiple classes.

Check the beta noone plays beastmaster. Its survival/mm

I was speaking from experience of original TBC and private servers and in earlier seasons BM Hunter is the most common spec until later seasons when they switch to MM/Surv

Ret pally trash everywhere
BM hunter A tier in PvE
Feral dunno but resto is S tier in arena.

Ret Paladin is very good but raids only really want 1, they are decent in arena too in some comps, people need to remember it’s patch 2.4 and Ret got buffed heavily in patch 2.3.

Hunter has multiple spots in most raid comps but they are awful in arena, at least at the high end. Feral tanks are needed by every guild and make a good backup dps due to buffs/utility but it’s the weakest of all the melee dps specs. Resto is god in arena.

If you want to be a meta slave → BM hunter
If you want to be niche → Ret pally
If you want to Tank => Feral Druid

What do i recommend? The one your going to have the most fun playing.
Why? Because a happy player plays longer.

Do you like to get into groups / guild? hunter
Do you like the bench and being called a meme / laughed at? Ret / feral (if you mean kitty).

Regards (a former feral).
