I really started playing WoW with Tww after making my first steps and reaching level 80 at the end of DF. I began 11.0 as a Ret Paladin, ran my first M+, and eventually pushed to 2.7k IO. To my surprise, I started tanking, got over my anxiety and discovered Druid while testing all the tanks. I’ve tried a few other classes, but Druid feels like my class. I enjoy every spec, both dps, healing and tanking all just clicked with me on Druid.
For S2, I want to push to 3k IO as flexible Feral
/ balance DPS and Guardian tank-maybe even start raiding and find some friends to push with instead of pugs.
Thanks for being a big part of my journey as a first-time player and for making this game (and its problems) more accessible to people like me!
Welcome to the Druid club! You are now trapped and can never choose another main again xD. I always tell myself that NEXT EXPANSION Ima main something new.... But I always find myself being back on the druid in no time. Have been "rooted" to druid since TBC :P
One of the best, if not the best video you've made!
Me over here just praying that someday we get an arcane melee spec. Like a battle mage in full plate using arcane magic.
Choice problem:
Mage - Boring theme and specs
Warlock - Great theme, way to slow (overall)
Monk - Only 1 fun spec (WW) bad theme
Warrior - Boring gameplay
Hunter - Got bored of it
Druid - Like the spec's. Can't see my gear
Rogue - Outlaw is the only spec i like
DK - Slow, UH is way to complicated
Paladin - Bored of it, only 1 spec i like (Ret)
Shaman - i don't vibe with my first lvl 60 anymore
Priest - slow, and only 1 dps spec
DH - Rly don't like the momentum build
Evoker - Aug sucks, can't stay in human form
I am currently stuck between Spriest and Devoker right now. My guild finally has all the buffs for raid so I don't need to fill roles/buff spots now which is nice and can focus on one. I picked up Devoker like a month ago and have actually fallen in love with the spec despite hating it thematically for the mogs.
requesting access for the sheet, is it possible to make it accessible to everyone?
It's in the description
Did you watch the video? Lol at the end he says save a copy of the file and then edit it
FIXED!!
@ how can I make a copy of the file if I can't access it? lol
@ yup I know - previously I couldn't interact with it / make a copy of it unless I could access it. Hence my message.
Thank you for the amazing job bro !
I will main a healer and dps most likely Arms, Frost mage, or Surv hunter /Rdruid. I really cant wait til they release Pridemother feral skin and ill be a feral main til the day i pass!
Great and structured video, lads. Your approach is the same as mine but in the last 2 days I will switch based on my gut anyway...
I was a DK main for so long but I can't do it anymore. Every spec being dependend on DnD is just so outdated...
Also for your fantasy category: Valeera for Rogues, Velen for Priests, Li Li for MW Monks :)
You know I don’t mind unholy being hard to play or having a lot of buttons because I feel like the more spells I have the more dps I’m gonna do more often and summon the riders of apocalypse and an abomination is so cool lol
If you have enough time to sink into WoW, having 13 characters is the endgoal so you can get a taste of everything
That said, for me the criteria for a main is hyper specific
1.) Can solo all forms of content. This means I gravitate towards a class with a castable heal for the handful of times that is required. Already down to 6 classes
2.) Good transmog, or good look in general. Since transmog is important to me, Druid and Evoker are out of the question (as are Mechagnomes), though I don't mind for alts. Down to 4
3.) At least one spec that is braindead easy to play. I'm getting older and I'm not here to try hard all the time. This elimates Shaman in my honest opinion. Too bad, they're quite strong but thems the rules
This leaves Priest, Monk, and Paladin
And my main has changed between all three depending on the expansion/patch. Mained a Paladin in 11.0, but thinking of switching to Monk in 11.1
If you struggle learning rotations then I recommend the addon Hekili, it displays the rotation as you play in 3 button line on your screen and very easy to use. I've been using it since Legion and I honestly can't play a dps without it at this point. Thought I'd mention this because you eliminated Shaman but its very enjoyable to play and the addon helps a lot.
Augmentation makes me think of Nozdormu and Neltharion, Preservation makes me think of Ysera and Alextrasza and devastation makes me think of Malygos and Alexstrasza maybe for fantasy
I would love to play Evoker...but i want to be in Human form.
The ugly dragon model just ruins all TMOGS :(
And more than that..i want my frostmage +perma pet..sadly Blizzard ruined that too.
I'll probably run the same as current season. Always maining destro warlock, fury/arms warrior, elemental shaman and shadow priest has been my alts. Might give WW monk a try instead of priest but I feel that energy is kinda clunky and can't feel the flow when I've played my feral and rogue.
I want to pick a new main, but also I know that I might as well not. I always end up on my druid regardless lol
THIS video rocks! nice! ty!
how it should be:
"play whatever you want and get good. your ability to do mechanics and keep your rotation up is more important"
how it actually works:
"play the meta or you'll never get into a group with PUGS. any guild that takes you either doesn't raid or is bad about toxic positivity. assuming they take you on a raid at all and don't just keep you around for some other reason"
this isn't really Blizzard's fault, tbh
it is to a minor degree because they cannot bring the difference in balance between the top and bottom specs within a degree where it doesn't truly matter
but the real issue is the community and their obsession with treating this game like a 2nd job rather than a game
You should play something which you find fun, something which you can play, understand fundamentals etc ... I main sub rogue for a years, multiple CE, 90+ parses constantly. I love when ppl are surprised about dps which I can do in M+ and raid.
I am actually doing a bold choice and going wind walker in 11.1. last time I mained ww was legion so I have ALOT to catch up with
He is crazy fun, you won’t regret. Won’t really be that hard to pick up if you’d played it even in legion
Same. #GokuTierSetPower
So worth man!
Once you got to fantasy, you suddenly had goldfish memory lol
I’m deciding between monk or paladin. Pally seems to be the safe bet for getting into pugs but ww is more fun to play. Already my alt choice locked in as a demo lock
I'm in the exact same boat :)
Would it make sense for blizzard to hide the class of the player, applying to groups to get lesser meta specs into groups, or is that not feasible?
Warlock demonology spec wil always be my main
Would say the same of frostmage...if Blizzard had not deleted our perma pet :(
I think I'll end up playing Havoc and WindWalker and I see that's the choice a lot of people are making (at least with WW). I'm sure I'm gonna end up playing an absolutely unremarkable class when it comes to dps and they're not gonna invite me to keys, but hey, let's hope in guild players
12:50 It's not a bad idea to eliminate 7 from your ratings, so you have to commit to either a 6 or an eight. 7 is a safe number.
Going to main Enhance and alt WW lmao. WW used to be my go to spec and was my main for a while but I can't pass up Enhance this season.
I think demo might be the lock go to right now after destro nerf to mastery
what class / mog is that at the 14 second part of the video? it looks like a DK, but i am not sure.
My main was chosen for me but I’m not mad at it. My alt I’m still in process of picking. Hopefully soon lol. I have it down to about 3
I get that at some levels in guilds that just happens….but never could I ever be forced to play something. Especially when I’m paying for the game.
No it wasn't dude. Unless your mom or dad are paying the subscription and THEY chose, nah, it wasn't chosen for you. You LET someone else pick and went along with what they side, but if you don't like it, play something else with other people.
elemental and enhancement are my favorite but i always have to play a different class because trying to gear a shaman is impossible for me. never get accepted to anything and pugs think every dungeon needs to be pro level. so sad:(
BM Hunter is finally meta...at least for now.
I play shaman main. Enhance in raid. Ele in m+ with the Boys and healer if we lack one or in pug situations.
I am too old to get rid of toxic players. That's why i quit to be as a tank. But blooddk always stay in my heart... Btw guys what is the class of Genn ? Maybe monk because he uses claws so much ? Or outlaw ?
Good day to you too :)
BM Hunter is dope i heared.
how i choose an alt: i ask my GM to tell me what to play. usually takes 5-6 times asking. he finally broke last night and made me stick to feral(currently feral in the tier). was that so hard loki?????
Sorry is it just me, or are there some mistakes in the doc? Sometimes there are 0s, so the sheet is messed up.. just for you guys to know. Thank you for your great work as always ❤❤
Watch the whole video despite being a mage main despite how they perform
Mage + shaman since cataclysm ❤️❤️
The history of hunters over the past 5 years is tragic. No one invites hunters at the highest keys. So, that should be a five across the board.
Man, gameplay was most importent, why did you skip exactly this? 😄 It will be nice if you dowload a full video. Thank you!
I just leveled another rogue. Just because.
3:17 HAAAA! LMAOO LEMME KNOW HOW THAT WORKS OUT
You still wont get invited to groups as a tank/healer. Even if you're playing the meta tank/healer. DPS players want 639/3k tank/healers for their alt's weekly 10 key. Anything less and they recommend you uninstall.
This looks very similar to a spreadsheet I made back in SL. ua-cam.com/video/yfVYKe9KO-w/v-deo.html
C'mon flame, holy priest fantasy and you dont think about Velen? 😂
I think i also need to do it with a list. I would love to tank or heal again but tank is no fun with so much dps just pulling like they want and heal after this season i see only darkness 😂 some tier sets look great but if i see the pvp one its over... so many bad colours at the elite ones 😢 maybe i stay with ww monk and sv hunter but lets try youre list 😊
Main Brewmaster, alt Blood DK
Pls release it we are dying here
"holy pally is weird" really?
Herald of the sun, ez. spam holy power with eternal flame once you use beacon of light, or use light of dawn for more stacked up situations with a consceretion. Not that weird xD
Im not a fan of lightsmith myself.
Will play my warrior and complain until i unlock my mogs. Then will play my monk and enjoy the content, such a shame warrior design is out of space...
You forgot Tyrande for holy priest in fantasy 😢
Eh, with trueshot aura? And spotter owl? not so sure
🔥
O can’t find the link :/
HAVOC is DOOMED
Why put work and lots of time into finding a mythic+ group when i can just do Delves is the problem. Delves are obliterating pugs and it won't change in season 2
Heh, wait for our delves video :P
Lore-wise Uther is not a holy paladin and Anduin is not a paladin period haha
Ive not watched fully yet but please don't say "play whatever you enjoy".
My warband this patch is demo lock, bm hunter, outlaw rogue and unholy dk! :)
Sick warband, go take some names!
@ cheers and thanks for the great content!! :)
feral for me season 2
So the suggestion was play what you find fun, but not even 3:30 minutes in you're already telling people they should swap roles or swap to a meta class. Nah, the real answer is find friends to play with and play what you want.
Which works until you are 6-7 good friends you enjoy playing with and everyone prefers dps.
you are just guessing numbers lol prot pally and prot warr are not even close
Best way: play enha shaman xd
All tanks are blowing @ss at the moment. Blizz you want a tank shortage? No? Then fix them. Tanks and Healers must always be a priority for Blizz and in season 1 you got it wrong and shortages abound. Season 2 looks like you haven't learned your lesson and are doing it again but then again you've been dropping the big balls on this one for 20+ years. I guess DEI and WOKE in the game and company are more important to you than your monthly fee paying customers. Stupid is what stupid does (Forest Gump).
Idc if hunters are good next season im still never inviting a non speaking english huntard, ok?
What about us zug zugs?
