What is your opinion on the easiest class? I see a lot of posts lately claiming that one class or another is faceroll or mega easy, but honestly nowadays it feels to me like no class is particularly difficult. Maybe that’s just because I haven’t played a hard class yet, idk.
Are there any classes that are considerably harder than others on a mechanical level, not just because of undertuning?
Definitely biased but I switched to ele this expac from hpal and other specs because I wanted to feel like I earned rating, and I feel like it’s a pretty tough spec compared to others I’ve played in the past which is p much everything.
Mostly in the context of the meta is why it seems like a hard spec. Hpal cleanse the weak negating all our dmg for free every 6 sec, being the kill target 90% of the time, needing to pre wall goes cause you can’t in stun, warriors being able to intervene spell reflect a go easily, having one leg of your go ghetto stopped slows you down. Your go being super telegraphed for that matter.
Our poly isn’t spammable so it’s gotta count, skill cap with high value grounding whether it’s offensive or defensive, being in positions for tremors etc. pet management for stops
Yeah i think ele should go up there in mechanical difficulty, and as far as easiest I’m gonna say ret and mage.
Ret because you can literally win by waddling at someone the whole game, keeping yourself alive in bad positions, and getting cool downs just because you pressed freedom and hoj.
Mage because the primary downside of being a mage used to be how squishy you were and you had to actually play smart to get high value cc without trading defensive cooldowns, and now mages literally just are in melee spamming db sheep.
Ret pally is honestly the easiest spec I have ever played…
It’s a very easy to understand and to perform well with overall, I haven’t fully geared my pally out yet because I really do end up getting bored with the simplicity after a few games.
Sub rogues used to be one of the highest skill ceiling specs in the game, it’s a shadow of its former self as far as difficulty.
Context, since most new players will start by doing 2s I’d say ww is the easiest one. All you have to do is run at a target and do your pve rotation until it dies.
You are not limited to damage windows bc you’ll be doing about 70% more dmg than everyone else at all times.
yes nothing like fighting a first time glad ret with a 40 year old gamer dad name with pwn in his name that triple procs divine toll and does 95k dmg in 1 second then back peddles and is not even aware what has just happened
