Because healers and tanks are uniquely unable to become teammates in shuffles the way it’s designed, you’re not actually competing for wins “against” any dpser, ever, as a healer or tank. The only one you’re competing against is the opposite healer or tank, like that.
(Which is also why wintrading can become a problem further down the line once people start doing premade shenanigans with queue timings at off-peak hours and so on, but that’s a bit off topic.)
(PS:
To clarify, I mean there can’t be 2 healers+1 dps on the same team vs. 3 dps in a shuffle, and the same thing with those “tank shuffles”, which means that while you can’t really carry it the same way as a dpser, you just have to do equally as good or better than the opposite healer or tank in order to score at least 3 wins when you play as a healer or tank.
So it’s easier to get a ~50% win rate as a healer or tank, while as a dpser you’re competing against many more players per shuffle for the wins.)
well you need a spec that have enough consistent damage while also have decent burst damage+ have good survivability bcz healers can feed too, and something that can secure a kill alone, because setup based specs for example sub rog wont do anything, you cant setup a cc chain with someone you never talked to/not on voice with him.
afterall i’d say warrior,retpal,dk,ww,bm hunter, assa/outlaw rog(if both can do big damage like in sl)
casters will be tough but i think lock (destro/affli), and maybe bommy.
for healers it will be weird as Bewarê said, you are highly dependant on the dps, if you will have 1 dps feeding, ppl will focus that 1 so healers will be 3-3 at the end,which can be better as higher you get in rating bcz dps players will be better but still healers dont have that much impact on the result of the game so it will be hard.
afterall it all comes down to whats your goal, for example if you are good enough to go for the 0.1% then spec doesnt matter bcz its spec based so even if you play a bad spec you only compete against the same specs with rating.
You shouldn’t ask these type of questions because you will definitely corner yourself to play only by rumors or just get bored a long the way. Find a class you want to play, because i know that rerolling might be ideal but the game is so much more about than arena.
E.g. on paper fury warrior is good. In current reality, everyone is dead before the crazy sustain+ms will stick to anyone.
enhance is normally terrible because it only has 1 solid comp since forever, meaning any comp you get in yolo queue is most likely not great. But since enhance currently is completely busted it is Nr.1 ez mode deluxe spec
Healers all feel terrible because you blow all your cds instantly and still everyone dies.
