What class do you think fits me best?

Community General Discussion

I currently play a warrior. I enjoy it but I would really like to have a castable self healing. It’s annoying sometimes that to heal I have to hit something instead of just casting it. A revive is also nice cuz when I played classic I found out that I really liked healing people in the open world and reviving someone if they died. You feel so helpful and it’s nice.

So here’s what I like and then I will say what I don’t like about the classes.

In general:
First of all I want to be melee.
I like the be survivable in the open world. I play solo mostly know but I play dungeons with my friends sometimes and play with them in the open world but I do the story solo.
I don’t like downtime so much, that’s what I like about fury, you always have something to press. I like Orcs a lot, after I switched to Orc from Tauren I really fell in lvoe with Orcs. They are big, but not too big (looking at you Tauren) I still envy Taurens tho :smiley: They are a awesome race imo. I don’t mind playing the other races tho.
I play m+ and will raid but not on a hardcore level. Prob just wait to lfr comes out.

Paladin:
Good things:
They have plate which love. Two handed sword and I love it. All these classes has self heal so I won’t talk about that but paladins also have plate which makes them more survivabl in pvp? I think so but I don’t know for sure.
Prot paladin is SUPER fun.

Bad things:
I don’t like their lore. It’s not exciting imo to play a class which has the light to back them up instead of being a Dk for example.
They have bad mobility.
I don’t know how much but they can get downtime and have nothing to press for a few seconds.

Monk:
Good things:
I can play Orc.
They have great mobility, they are good in m+ and pvp.

Bad things:
They fight with their hands which is boring imo.
I kinda don’t like their lore but I think that’s just cuz they fight with their hands. I want to fight with a big sword or axe man :frowning:
I don’t have anything against leather but I just like plate more so that makes me hate leather (not hate but plate looks so good that the other ones looks like crap imo)

Shaman:
Good things:
I can play Orc. Mail is cooler than leather, looks more like plate.
I can have axes.
Their animations looks really cool with the lightning and all the looks of the other abilities.
I don’t know anything about the mobility except for the wolf and as I understand it it’s really good. You can be it for as long as you want. I don’t think you can get slowed in pvp when you are the wolf so that’s good.
I don’t know anything about their lore but it seems cool cuz they have their lightning and fire, earth powers etc.

Bad things:
They don’t have plate. But in this case it doesn’t bother me as much.
I don’t know how survivable they are. They don’t have plate like paladins and the monk ahve their mobility to just get away.

Since you like tauren, plate, healing and melee, tauren paladin are awesome and I don’t see them much, even if you don’t like the light aspect you don’t have to delve too much into it outside of legion rp wise. Sounds like monk wouldn’t be for you because weapons are a really big thing and if you don’t like their fighting style you wont stick with it.

A few questions - DPS or tank?
Which is more important to you - lore/looks or gameplay?
Are you completely against playing a leather class?
How active are you in PvP?

I’d say go pink but I’m biased :woman_shrugging:

See I’m leaning the same way , but the OP post suggests that transmog ranks pretty high in their priorities and I’m not sure druid would be best considering you near enough are shifted in combat constantly. If OP is willing to sacrifice being able to see their cool weapons and plate armour, I’d totally suggest druid. But much like Nix above me… I’m probably biased.

if u like ORCs and like self healing u go shaman like a tru Orc !!

8

You like melee, you like Orcs, you want survivability and you like big weapons so it seems to me DK is your best choice there.

9

lol true :smiley:

10

You get cool shapeshifts though that outweigh any armor as a druid though.

I’ve tried druid before. I’ve always loved the idea of being a bear or cat in wow and it’s so much fun. But I don’t like that feral is like a rogue. It’s just not my playstyle. Which is sad cuz druids are super cool.

If feral played like a warrior and still had their healing I would always go druid. But that seems kinda op but idk. Maybe in my dreams I could play one :smiley:

Shaman like tru orc like Thrall :stuck_out_tongue:

Monk
Sprinter mobility. Over short distances, nothing is faster, and it can get you out of mechanics that will kill other classes.

Squishy when no cooldowns available, but monk healers seem to be quite sturdy.

Shaman
Marathon mobility. Given long enough, they always win any indoor race. But 50% isn’t that much when you’ve got 1 second left to get out of the fire.

Every single expansion, shamans cry about their lack of survivability. I expect nothing to ever change.

Paladin
No mobility. Only slower thing is a death knight.

Tanky because they’re gonna get hit by every mechanic that requires fast movement.

Druid
(Yes they exist!) Triathlon mobility. You want a quick dash? Spec for it. You want a group dash? Spec for it. Nothing is faster in the open world, land, air or sea. Very slightly slower than shamans indoors.

Arguably the best survivability due to bear form and being hard to CC.

Opinions
I love monks more than any other class. I like druids a little more than shamans, and shamans a bit more than paladins.

Open-world healing? People don’t need it in retail. Nobody will even acknowledge you unless they were on the cusp of death when you arrive - but as dps, your heals do nothing, so you’re better taunting the mob off them.

Open-world resurrection? Very rare. If players die, it’s probably an elite with a bunch of people attacking it. They’ll have released and run back before you’re out of combat. So far I have managed to bring 1 player up since the start of SL.

Unless you’re honestly bothered by out-of-combat self-healing… warrior actually sounds like the right class for you. Get plenty of that food that regens 1000 hp/5 sec, stock up on health potions.

Also, don’t over-estimate self-healing of dps specs. It ain’t good. WW monk will need about 10 healing casts to fill its own health bar.

UNLESS you wanted to have a heal spec for group content. In which case my vote predictably goes to monk. Under-represented, under-estimated, and usually the last healer to die in raids.

Enhancer or paladin sounds like what you want.

Enhance looks super fun this expac!

15

That’s where druid is the best choice, combat res them.
