Looking for feedback from people that play these classes or atleast are partnered with one of them. I’m deciding on a main to take for a long way because i’m not much of an alt guy, and i want to know how these classes are performing currently and if it’s a good idea to stay on one of them for later.
Also, are all 3 doing pretty well in the current patch ?
Thank you for your feedback on the matter. Any discussion is welcome aswell ! 
All 3 of them seem to be fine. Monk usually has atleast 1 viable spec while DH also has never been weak since its introduction.
Rogue is always op though.
Well jeez that makes it even harder… How’s the community perception over each of them ?
Rogue is probably the safest bet , always op since the very first alpha. It’s about time DH will get nerfs , even if they don’t they are soooo boring to play.
I see. And checking the ladders ive been seeing that race is also playing a huge role, been noticing that every high rated rogue is either a night elf (obv for the meld reset) or an orc (for hardiness).
I play on horde and i don’t feel like orc fits rogue much tbh, i prefer undead. Are racials really that important in the current iteration of the game for someone that plans to push past duelist and above ?
DH carries all utility in current game except aoe stealth and disarm. (the real MVP class if you ask me.) Everything else they have / can spec into.
all of them are pretty strong atm, i would say go for dh as you just pump damage and u dont need to give a fuk about the rest of the stuff as the class has no skill cap/any brain requirement and easy to perform with 1-2 damage rotation which auto dodges every 3rd global and press eye beam on cd.
Is it true that dh players get no respect no matter how well they know the game ?
Yeah everyone say that.
And someone WHO is season 1 , 2 , 3 rank 1 told the same too when I talked to him.
Dh is op since he came out.
Rog is op also every Expansion weeks like
Guess u cannot do something wrong with those 2
Dh is op since he came out.
Rog is op also every Expansion weeks like
Guess u cannot do something wrong with those 2 just go ahead and try.
If you are looking for the safest and most future proof bet, that would be rog.
Always was good to op, always will be at least good and most probably op.
WW is now kind of op, but wouldn’t bet on it staying like that always. Same for DH (with the difference it’s not “kinda” it’s outright OP atm).
I’d rate them:
But there are 2 classes that have never stepped down from the throne of being among the best for all WoW history, no matter what other classes get a place next to them in this or that expansion and these are rog and mage.
Rogue is probably the best choice, since hes never weak. DH is more risky of getting nerfed but therefor the most noob friendly class we have ingame. WW is most of the times viable, but doesnt scale good with gear.
So personally I would agree with Bragamond here:
Nice guys. Been getting a single common answer everywhere and that’s obviously rogue.
Since everyone’s recommending rogue, how fun are they ? I know fun’s subjective but compare a rogue’s playstyle to dh and ww, it seems a lot slower. On dh you got your glide, your double jumps and your insane mobility which i guess makes the game a lot smoother while on monk youre rolling and ninja kicking and all that, but what about rogue?
If someone mains that class, or has played all 3, please do tell me your experience and how that stuff compares. Thank you again
I have mained all 3 classes, and they are all strong right now.
Rogue has the best toolkit, but it is annoying to play. In the long run I got tired of stealthing / resetting fights. Guarding flags etc is boring in bgs.
WW Monk has a great tookit as well. They can slow / root permanently and nowadays also MS effect on their RSK. They are a bit weaker defensively outside of karma.
DH is very straightforward and can survive a lot thanks to their dodge and mobility. However they also have limited possibilities to counterplay others.
For example a Rogue can use Smoke Bomb to avoid damage and also get a kill. Monks can knock people off bridges or interrupt casts with Ring of Peace.
As a DH you will many times be expected to mana burn opponents (boring playstyle) and you are generally hated.
In bgs they are great fun however.
Currently all 3 are quite strong but Rogue>DH>WW from my point of view.
If you consider the past as well then Rogue is your best shot. There wasnt a single expansion were Rogue wasnt strong. Sometimes not broken meta, but never weak!
WW is mostly either weak or very strong. Since they removed FoF stun its not that fun to play anymore in my opinion tho. In MoP it was one of the funniest specs ingame.
DH is a weird thing. They are totally broken, super easy to play, et cetera on the one hand but not really viable in mix comps on the other hand. They are also not fun to play in my opinion. You can press what ever you want, you cant mess it up unlike Rogue and even WW where you can.
Just roll a DH and faceroll.
You don’t need to worry about combo point and energy.
Just faceroll and your enemies will die.
Honestly having tested all 3 classes, i must admit that i am having an absolute blast on monk. Literally.
The outplay potential this class has is insane as it rewards you for smart gameplay and that’s exactly what i’m looking for, you don’t have to worry about being hated for everything you achieve while feeling that stuff is very easy (dh) or having to pull perfect ccs to land a kill or getting told to guard flags in bgs like you guys mentioned (rogue).
And sure i do know that monks require skill to play as much as rogues but somehow i felt that it’s alot smoother, especially with it being a very fast paced and bursty class, and thats something i enjoy.
My only worry going forward is Shadowlands, because as it stands right now, WW monks aren’t looking as good as other classes. Let’s just hope it stays as strong or close to it atleast.
