Dude, have a damned Snickers.
3 hours and a partial spell book, and a pre-set spec isn’t enough time to determine anything.
Stop defending WoW like it’s your dying mother. It’s silly.

You can create 8 characters and have multiple, if not all classes on them.

In the character creation screen there is a check box in the lower right of the screen.
Can only select one or two of the specs though, and it seems you can’t change spec during trial (not confirmed that)

I’m not defending WoW. It’s just a fact that it doesn’t take 3 hours to figure out if you like a class or not.
Proof? You didn’t refute my point, only stooped to TikTok level insults.
If all you REALLY are trying to do is figure out if you like a class or not (which is the ONLY point of a Trial) … then make another one. Why won’t you do this? The answer is obvious, even if you won’t admit it: you want more than a Trial. Well … too bad.
You’re invalid example doesn’t exempt the fact that people ACTUALLY USE Trials chrs to exploit game mechanics (eg: farm raids). Just because you cherry-pick some nonsense that, obviously, doesn’t affect Trials has absolutely no bearing on why they have a time restriction. Your example, as expected, is meaningless.

i’m a newb so take my words with a grain of salt, but starting this from the island place probably gave a better expeirence for the class in my opinion cause you get to use it on mobs for quest in real time

You still need a Snickers.

Tbh I know it probably sounds like a bit much, but I wish they could find a way to incorporate the proving grounds into the character creation experience, optionally of course. Like if you wanted, you can opt to take a class / spec into the proving grounds before creating it and test your limits to practice as much as you want as if the class were max level.

3 hours is plenty of time to figure what a class does and how it works.

Understandable if you’ve been playing for a couple of expansions but for new players they can’t do that. Sure we can jump on any toon any class any spec and figure it out quick. But you can’t expect others to be able to do that.

It could take more than a lifetime to some it seems.

Download PTR. Select the class you want. Try it for a month if want too. Done. Just saying look around the box somedays.

IIRC they can’t even use the AH or enter dungeons and raids as a trial class. Might not even be able to mail. So what are they farming lol.

You can mail, i think. But it’s not even required, you use them to move over your mains to another server
We farmed rare mounts with trial classes, you make them on dead servers with little to no connections and look for things like Posideus

lol nice. might matter to some folks but not to me. It’s not much different from asking a pal to invite you to the party and transfer you to a dead server which I’ve done before.

3 hrs is still more than enough to do that, it’s been 3 hrs for a long time, that’s what we were doing back in bfa for the they killed Mboxing

the content they can play a trial character in won’t do that either - the trial is just there for provide a taste of the gameplay, don’t for someone to become an ‘expert’ at doing world content with that character.
precisely - they aren’t doing content that they can learn a lot in anyway.
3 hours is plenty - anyone asking for more than 3 hours isn’t using the trial for testing the class out, they are using for farming rares and whatnots on dead RP servers.

WoW reminds me what a godsend it is when developers add accurate recommendations in the game on how to play a class or character and what you should have setup. Mainly because in WoW all they teach you to do is press the attack button lol.

To see how it feels at max level without actually leveling it all the way to find out you don’t like it.
3 hours is enough to get a feel for what all your abilities do, but mastering it or seeing how it feels in PvE vs PvP etc., eh may take a while.

yes but you can’t enter instances with a trial character so you can’t really ‘master’ it anyway.
