WoW suggestions

[JFry]

Hey I just downloaded the 10 day demo for WoW and I was hoping you guys could offer some advice on what class to be etc.. I don't plan on purchasing the game so I just want to maximize my fun within the 10 day limit. Any suggestions?

[Blackghost905]

Make a Paladin, They can Heal do a lot of dammage. And they get a free horse when you get lvl 40, Or make a Rogue, They are the best toons in the game for mining and sneeking around because you can become invisable. You have to pay
A LOT for a horse if you are not a Paladin though

[Glirk Dient]

Go rogue if your just playing the trial. Rogues own at lower levels and are worthless once they hit 60. So have fun with a lower lvl rogue they are very good then.

[KagePrototype]

Make a Paladin, They can Heal do a lot of dammage.

Well, they can heal.... :P

If you want to do damage and heal, play a shaman. Paladins are a lot more defensive and as such aren't that good at throwing out damage. Don't let anyone tell you a class is gimped and should be avoided though; pick the class and race that you think is coolest. :)

[Shakermaker]

I had a lot of fun with my Dwarf Hunter when I played WoW. Wolves make great pets and Ironforge and it's surroundings are a sight to behold. It doesn't take long before you can travel to Stormwind, the capital of the Human sector. In ten days you should be able to see most of the newbie sectors of Dwarven- and Human land, and you might even wanna try and reach Teldrassil. That's where the Night Elves live. Good luck exploring Azeroth!

Can you even reach lvl 40 in 10 days? As an unexperienced player I mean?

Well my Pally did a lot of dammage because he was UBER! and lvl 60 so that kinda helps. Oh yeh make your toon on the server called Lane, Best server on the game also the most full one,

[Glirk Dient]

In 10 days you will probally make the 20-30ish range.

[Blackghost905]

If plays in long periods, If not then I would say about 10-15 ish

[Raz]

Don't play a paladin or a druid. They're the slowest classes in the game.

[ة الأسئلة الشائع]

A really newb toon is the War.

[Jintor]

Play CoV.

Or a shaman.

Tauran Shaman.

Paladins are the cheapest class in the game. I hate them and they hate me. Horde ftw :p

I have a Tauren Shaman, lvl 60. The amount of times i'm about to own a paladin than he/she puts up his/her shied and uses a hearthstone... It's just ****ing bullshit. -_-

[BHC]

my 60 priest owns, make a priest

you can melt faces, oh and heal

[Lucid]

Does the trial require a credit card?

That's because Shaman are overpowered and Paladins suck at pvp ;) They do so little damage that their only chance of winning is to outlast thier opponent.

*hugs Troll Shaman :)*

[Sulkdodds]

Druids are lots of fun but quite hard.

[Boogymanx]

What does everyone mean with facemelt? Is it an OMGWTFNIPPLEDBBQ spell you get at 60? (I'm 40 and oblivious.)

[Danimal]

I thought it was a shadow spell... That shadow priests have...

[B.Calhoun]

lol, its just the term people use for priests pwning people.

[ktimekiller]

WHAT EVER YOU DO! DONT ROLL A LOCK!
thank you.

[Warbie]

What does everyone mean with facemelt?

It's a shadow spell - Mind Flay. It's very good.

I've melted a good few faces myself :)

[Boogymanx]

Oooh. Me <3 My Mind flay together with Vampiric Embrace and my SW: Pain (all in shadowform ofc)

[Glirk Dient]

Warrior - Over powered...own everything. Easy to play and easy to own with. Good at any lvls. They do the most dmg and have the most hp and defense in the game. They are melee only but they can charge long distances and stun the person then use hamstring to slow them so they don't get away. They can kill most classes in just a few hits.

Druid - Difficult to play as there is a lot to learn about. Pretty good class. Very good as flag runner in CTF.

Rogue - Good at low lvls. Anything past that don't waste your time. They are out dmged by half the classes, everything breaks their stealth and they can't do enough burst dmg to kill anyone competant unless you go with a specific build. Even then you can only take out a few classes and if they are good at their class you won't win without heavy use of cooldowns which gimps you for a while.

Warlock - suck at low lvl...owns faces at high lvl. A bit difficult to get the hang of but very good.

Shaman - Balanced at everything. Very good almost over powered class. Great at PVP.

Paladin - Better at PVE. They have good defenses but sucky offense.

Priest - Good at PVP. However if you become a shadow priest and do DMG to people while in PVP...even though you can outdmg most classes they will whine that your not healing them. Even though everyone targets priests first and you can't get a heal off anyways they will still bitch at you and call you a nub.

Mage - 2nd highest dmg in the game. However lowest defense as well. These guys are pretty good until something hits them.

Hunter - One of the best PVP classes. They do a lot of dmg and can do it at range. Coupled with a pet they can really kick ass. They also have a variety of traps...namely the one that freezes is real good. They can also track humanoids and have flare to pull rogues out of stealth. With their speed buff it makes them very hard to kill unless your a warrior.

[Warbie]

Rogue's certainly need some love.They're great to have in a group for pve though, and can maintain a high level of damage indefinitely.

I find in PVP they're very specialised - and are most useful as cloth killers/sappers and for ambushing someone who's picked up the flag.

[Septih]

Warrior - Over powered...own everything. Easy to play and easy to own with. Good at any lvls. They do the most dmg and have the most hp and defense in the game. They are melee only but they can charge long distances and stun the person then use hamstring to slow them so they don't get away. They can kill most classes in just a few hits.

have you only ever been killed by warriors who were 20 lvls above you with epic gear or something(slightly overexagerrated but meh)

they are extremely equipment dependant and their dmg sucks if you don't have the right gear. and it is possible for palas to get the most defense too seeing as it's not a class skill as such.

[CptStern]

here's a suggestion ...make it simpler for us guys who rarely play to afford a mount ..jeez almost 100 pieces of gold for a mount and riding lessons ...I'm at lvl 33 and only have 18 gold and all I've been doing since lvl 29 is farm for gold/skins ..took me 2 months (play a few hours a week)

[Warbie]

Gold starts to come alot quicker once you hit the late 30's/early 40's.

I was in the same boat at lv 33 and had enough gold at lv 42. It's been the same with all my characters.

Life's too short farm :) - just play and you'll be suprised how quick it adds up. Avoid the AH if you can -that helps save a few pennies and there's really no need to buy anything pre 60 (although buying new gear is much of the fun)

[CptStern]

avoid the AH? that's where I make most of my cash ...sold 3 quivers last night for 1 gold each ..it just gets tiring loading up on skins, crafting then back to ironforge


I'm in kind of a rut ..havent done a quest in a long time ...dont know where to go for the biggest bang for the xp points ..I've been hanging out in Duskwood attacking the werebeasties cuz they drop at least 1 silver and yield a heavy skin 50% of the time

[Glirk Dient]

Nah I play a 60 rogue. Yeah they are very gear dependant but they can still 3 shot rogues with any decent weapon.

Rogues defense is dodge...well when we dodge warriors can use overpower which will hit us for around 1k-1.5k damage. Yeah...we die fast.

I consider myself a pretty skilled rogue...I can occasionally 1v1 a warrior but they are by far the hardest class for a rogue. I know pretty much every trick there is to beating a class with a rogue and rogues have to rely on their cooldowns. I even have a specific build that is hands down the best pvp build. Prep is worthless IMO. I could go on and on...but it comes down to warriors being overpowered(no pun intended) to rogues.

Horde hate Paladins because they can instantly go BING FULL HEALTH LOL which is bloody annoying. And they have like 500 ways to stop you stopping them from casting a spell. I have fun playing a druid because it's a hard and complicated class to play, and you're jack-if-all-trades-master-of-none meaning that often you find PVP like trying to attack a knive with a sponge. But, this has the advantage of making you feel really skillful when you get better and start owning 3 people on your own in PVP, and you're awesome in groups and everybody loves you, and after level 30 you will almost never ever get ganked by someone if you make a concentrated effort to get away (Nature's Grasp + War stomp + travel form ftw).

What are you talking about? Master of none? Your cat form wtfowns rogues. They make me cry.

Shamans are worse than paladins IMO. A paladin is just annoying...a shaman can rape you. They can also fully heal with natures swiftness too. If your a melee class they just kite you and kill you with shocks. If your a ranged player they slow you and catch up and beat your face in with a WF 2 hander.

[ة الأسئلة الشائع]

[Glirk Dient]

They suck at life is why. They are getting updated soon(or have they already..IDK I quit). After that they will own all most likely.

[ة الأسئلة الشائع]

When it comes to atmosphere,balanced class and fun features then pick this race/class.

That's if they are a restoration build, and it's not always full health with the heal.

Secondly, if you're getting kited by a shaman with shocks you need to re-think what the hell you're doing. If he is kiting you, run backwards and then stop, once he starts running back to you run forward and you will be in melee range.

As for windfury, yeah it's sometimes bullshit. I one-shotted a 60 hunter with my epic two-handed mace (All the windfury damaged critted along with the weapon proc, which adds +200 damage to the swing :O)

I thought he was feigning death... But no.

[Kouler]

WHAT EVER YOU DO! DONT ROLL A LOCK!
thank you.

What's wrong with locks? Mine was my first char and is lvl 60 and he wtfpwns Danimal's shaman :D

But I guess youre right, they are difficult to master for someone new to the game, and they do get owned at low lvl. BUT once you're 60, with some epics, you'll be pulling 2k dmg shadow bolts non-crits :) (and like 5k crits)

Btw for those that have locks, demonology build ftw.

[Fliko]

Don't play a paladin or a druid. They're the slowest classes in the game.

They look like ****ing ninja's of death! D: They're meant to be baking cookies and playing in the lakes with the youngins' :/ Then BAM! They turn into evil ninjas of death.

[Vigilante]

I have one of the most hated classes becuase they refuse to die....55 Orc Hunter

I'm a hordie. I hate alliance (usually) becuase they outnumber horde 3 : 1 on Icecrown. It's funny how none of the alliance are skilled and they always lose in the BGs
There are four horde guilds on Icecrown who have killed Ragnaros. No alliance guild has. I hate paladins.

Glirk - I strongly disagree with you about rogues being shitty at high levels.

Stern - best way to make money is to take up mining and get mithril/copper/iron and sell stacks of 20 bars. Take a few laps around thousand needles before you log, you'll have money in no time. I had money for a mount in 2 levels.

[Glirk Dient]

I have a 60 rogue. I can only kill most classes when I have my cooldowns. When I don't(vanish, blind mostly) then I am screwed. If it is a 2v1 I am screwed. If I get hit I am screwed. Rogues can't take dmg worth crap. Using my vigor/seal fate build I can deal out tons of dmg starting off. Almost as much as a mage or warrior. However after the first few hits my dmg is severely slowed and most often after a few hits I am dead. Granted I am talking about BGs. Once I nail a mage in the back or someone they will freeze me/kite me/run and snare me or whatever. So I better be lucky that guy is a nub or too slow to escape in time.

[Danimal]

Insignia of The Horde/Alliance should dispel the frost nova.

[Glirk Dient]

Horde it does but alliance no. The alliance trinket removes fear, polymorph and stun effects. So frost nova screws my dwarf rogue. However...stone form owns as a rogue. It even removes blind amazingly.

[Danimal]

Horde ftw. =]

Back on topic for suggesting what class/race for the thread starter.

[houndeye]

I'd say, since he only has ten days with it, to just choose whatever he thinks is cool. He's not gonna get into PVP or anything in that time, so there's no sense in try to go for some uber class that won't even make it to a high enough level to make a difference. Personally, knowing the classes as I do now, if I had only ten days to play I would go with a Warlock. They get a pet at level 3, and plenty of fun spells to play around with, so for someone who only has limited time to play I think they offer more fun than a class where you need to be level 10 or 20 before they even start getting decent skills (Priests and Warriors and Hunters, for instance). Just my thoughts.

[Baal]

When I started leveling my warrior it was terrible, but this was also a year ago now and things have changed somewhat, but my understanding is warriors are still not very good from 1-59. My warrior is decent because I am somewhat well equipped, and only for that reason. Warriors are very gear dependent.

Anyways, pick a rogue...you'll have a lot of fun at lower levels.

Oh, wait...hunters!

Hunters are absolutely retardedly easy to level, especially once you get a pet. My friend made a hunter alt and he was saying how he could kill three level 20 mobs at level 17!!! Which is crazy...

So.....hunter or rogue!

Well Suicide42 (rogue) can wtfpwn almost anything in PvP within reasonable limits so either you suck or the alliance that Sui fights suck [i]or[/o] the Horde are just awesome.

[15357]

Guys, somewhat off topic but is WoW good? i'm thinking about reporting my stolen social security number to the police so I can play. Its complicated but if WoW is good....

[Boogymanx]

WoW wtfpwns anything else. And HARD.

[Dalamari]

Make a horde rogue, the horde have a ton of lowbie quests that will make the game more fun

[Danimal]

Horde has too many rogues! ><'

(Well at least on Blackrock)

[Baal]

Who doesn't have a 60 rogue? :(

So common. I have a 60 rogue alt...just for instances though, my warrior is for PvP.

Here's my two characters:

Warrior: http://www.amplify.ca/juno/roster/char.php?name=Myden&server=Magtheridon

Rogue: http://www.amplify.ca/juno/roster/char.php?name=Mullins&server=Magtheridon

I think the gear is up to date. I wear different bracers on my warrior now though, it gives me 5k health instead of 4800.

I use a sword on my rogue because it's better than heartseeker for instancing, since as you can see from my build, I'm purely damage spec.

No...I can own any class 1v1 warriors and paladins being pretty hard and borderline luck. However in group PVP I die so fast that I can't do very much DMG since I can only take on cloth wearers in the back and once I ambush one they freeze/poly me and all of them kick my butt and I die right away. Granted I am able to still take 1 out usually before they all own me. So it's not like im a nub...just rogues have zero survivability and I can't imagine any rogues without a vigor/seal fate build getting anywhere.

[ktimekiller]

glirk, i dont think warriors are overpowered, you need to take time with them. most rogues think they can go toe to toe with warriors, and go all out at once, and die in a few hits. you need to take your time, restealth, and such, not blowing all your cooldowns in 10 seconds helps alot.

60 warlock and 60 rogue gorgonash

[Glirk Dient]

I can own warriors...stun lock them an entire fight but they have too much armor and hp and if 1 of my stuns gets dodged/reisted I am screwed. Another problem is any warrior with decent gear will last long enough that they become immune to gouge and it is game over for me at that point as it only takes a few gouges.

Here is my plan for warriors.

Open with cheap shot
back stab sinister strike

expose armor(-2500 armor with imp expose armor)

then cheap shot
backstab
thistle tea backstab
cold blood eviscerate
gouge

That is the best plan I have vs a warrior. However it isn't a true stun lock so they are often able to kill me. If I stun lock any more than that they will dodge/resist my stuns too often and I die. This is the best dmg/stun ratio I have found. The problem is if any of those misses or I get stunned or they have more hp/armor than what I have dished out I am dead. Warriors will kill me in 3 hits with overpower since I dodge most of their attacks. Fact is rogues have gotten nerf after nerf since beta and other classes have been buffed. Warriors are one of the classes that have gotten a buff patch and now they can own any class with ease. Especially rogues.

Restalth can only occur when your not doted. Thankfully I am a dwarf and stoneform will remove the dots they put on me. That allows me to vanish once which makes me able to take on a warrior. No other race can take out a skilled warrior. I can re stealth after gouge but that requires good timing and warriors can just use their AOE fear to pull you out of it then charge and own your face. So really a skilled warrior can take on a rogue with ease as it only takes a milisecond of not being stunned to turn the fight around and kill the rogue.

[Septih]

meh, i get picked off by rogue stun locks a lot, but then i'm proc spec'd not boring CC. (switching to fury soon). I also have pretty bad equipment for a lvl 60.

[Beerdude26]

Hunters are absolutely retardedly easy to level, especially once you get a pet. My friend made a hunter alt and he was saying how he could kill three level 20 mobs at level 17!!! Which is crazy...

So.....hunter or rogue!

At level 46 I could handle three level 50s. It would always be a close call but as long as I had full mana I'd win.

WHY MUST I BE THE ONLY ALLIANCE HATER HERE?!

gawd

[Septih]

i hate other alliance..just not myself, i'm horde at heart, that's why i don't pvp loads :P

[Asus]

I usually recommend hunters or paladins to first time players if they don't know what they want. Although if you play a paladin and try a different class later you will find it harder since hardly anything could easily take you down before. But at the same time you end battles a lot faster. =p

I have a 60 Warlock and love it. I've tried full affliction and full demonology before. I'm currently MD/Ruin spec. I'm currently playing a 40 druid and also having fun being like a rogue or warrior with cat and bear forms.

[WaterMelon34]

Horde has too many rogues! ><'

(Well at least on Blackrock)
On Blackrock, 19% of players for the Horde are rogues actually...well, atleast my census says so. :dozey:

EDIT: Actually that might be the percentage of Undead. I'm too tired to check.

You know warriors have an immune to gouge and sap skill right?

If you rely on gouge what so ever, you're finished. If you're seal-fate dagger, I recommend ambush, backstab, kidney shot, try to get him in battle stance then gouge.

Basically if you use gouge and he's in beserker stance, then you try to run away, it's game over. Intercept, bleed effect, hamstring, and that's it!

[Jintor]

I'm not alliance hater, but I am horde.

Might be automatic :/

Yeah I know.

If I open with ambush then backstab I do 1-1.5k combined dmg if his gear isn't very good. Then I can kidney shot and he is stunned for 4 seconds and ill get another backstab off 2 seconds after that is done. After that it is game over.

The strategy I posted is the only way to take out a skilled warrior. The point is to take him out quickly, however any skilled warrior will really own your face which further proves rogues aren't overpowered but the opposite.

[Danimal]

Wanna bet?

I hate Alliance so much, I go to Teldrassil and camp lvl 1's in my spare time.

[Da-Muffin-Man]

Where and how do you get the demo? Ive been wanting to try this game out.

[Danimal]

The 10 day trial comes with the game, so ask a friend of yours who has the full game for it.

[DannyC.]

You might consider going to worldofwarcraft.com and start looking at all the class and race bonused to see what you like. There are a few tid-bits of info I know.

Shamans are bastards and were recently given a new totem that decreases the chance enemies will attack them. Create one if you like being an overpowered asshole.

30% of the entire goddamn server I used to play in were rogues. :O

Paladin's damage dealing tech trees were recently annihilated. They're now basically half-priests in armor.

Yesh. Warriors are pretty good, if you like a tough close quarters fighter. I enjoyed a warlock and a hunter. Warlocks get 1337 pwnage like controlling infernals at level 60. Druids are hard, but good if you use one right. Not too strong overall, but have incredible versitility. In regular form, you can be a spellcaster/healer, switch to bear form if the situation calls for a warrior, and be a cat to gain the traits of a rogue. A skilled group of druids could tackle quite a bit.

I just created my first mage, and I have to tell you, it's one of the funnest classes I've ever played. Yes, as someone said, they suffer a lot when they get hit, but they really dish out the damage. And they do have the abilities to keep melee fighters from getting too many hits on them.

That is the best plan I have vs a warrior. However it isn't a true stun lock so they are often able to kill me. If I stun lock any more than that they will dodge/resist my stuns too often and I die. This is the best dmg/stun ratio I have found. The problem is if any of those misses or I get stunned or they have more hp/armor than what I have dished out I am dead. Warriors will kill me in 3 hits with overpower since I dodge most of their attacks. Fact is rogues have gotten nerf after nerf since beta and other classes have been buffed. Warriors are one of the classes that have gotten a buff patch and now they can own any class with ease. Especially rogues.

Restalth can only occur when your not doted. Thankfully I am a dwarf and stoneform will remove the dots they put on me. That allows me to vanish once which makes me able to take on a warrior. No other race can take out a skilled warrior. I can re stealth after gouge but that requires good timing and warriors can just use their AOE fear to pull you out of it then charge and own your face. So really a skilled warrior can take on a rogue with ease as it only takes a milisecond of not being stunned to turn the fight around and kill the rogue.

Theres your problem, your trying to kill him before anything can happen. This works VS most classes, but against something like a paladin, or a warrior, you need to take your time. Be smart, dont try to out tank a warrior, you just die. Try a more indirect combat, like restealthing plenty of times, try not spamming all of your stuns all at once. always stay away from melee, but not too far for intercepts. Try cheapshotting, then gouging right away for some extra time to restealth, then wait for the diminishing returns to go away. Cheapshot again for a 5 point, then expose. From there, usually instinct take over, and I tend to go different ways everytime.

Trick with warriors, take your time, take your time! take your damnmed ****ing time!!!!
