I still don't know what to play

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on what to play just to have fun and enjoy the world/dungeons.

In vanilla I had an undead mage that made it to like level 59.
I had a human paladin that made it to like level 30.
I had an orc warrior that made it to like level 40.
Finally, I had a dwarf hunter that made it to like level 35.

Any advice/tips on what a good class/race combo is?

What’s a class that is likely to be under represented?

Thanks! :slight_smile:

you can’t go wrong with what you connect with aesthetically

Under played classes will be Druid and warlock

print out a pic of each class, tape them to your wall, Put on a blind fold, Throw a dart(or something that will stick to them when it hits) in the direction of the pics, pick the one you hit(or get closest to hitting)

I have a couple of suggestions, to help break the indecision:

  1. There will be plenty of time to level everything. Level one of the classes you want, then, when the urge hits, roll another.
  2. Ask yourself, if you could be one class in real life, which would it be? Play that one.
  3. If you’ll be playing different alts, arrange professions so that you can share the crafts among your alts. I’m rolling a leatherworker first, and will level that until I get to level 12 or so; then I’ll level a leather wearer, who is an alchemist. And so on. That way, if you can’t make up your mind, you can make the situation work to your advantage.

Look, here’s what I did because I was so wishy washy about the whole thing. I literally wrote down all the classes on a piece of paper and scratched them off one by one until I zeroed in on what I really wanted.

What do you wanna do?

PVE? Getting invites super easy = Any healer, Mage, Dps war, Prot war,

Dominate pvp? Hunter, Mage, Lock Spriest top 4.

Casual or Farming gold = Hunter, mage

Level each class to level 5 and see if anything sticks. After doing this you may have narrowed it down by half or more. If not, that’s okay.

Now level each one to 10 and see if you can narrow it down even more. Perhaps you’ve made a decision at this point. If so, great! If not, that’s okay. Let’s go to the next step.

Level them to 17-18 and do your very first dungeon run. A dungeon can tell you a lot about your class that you can’t get from solo questing. At this point you should be able to choose a main.

If not, welcome to that altoholic life!

Strongest race/class combos, IMO:

Alliance:
Gnome Mage
Night Elf Hunter
Dwarf Priest
Human or Gnome Rogue

Horde:
Orc Warrior
Orc Hunter
Undead Rogue
Undead Priest
Undead Mage
Orc/Undead Warlock
Orc Shaman

Keep in mind, these are more PvP-minded decisions. As far as under representation, warlocks and druids are likely to be the least played, with Warriors, Mage and Rogues the most played across both factions, and if you consider single factions, Shaman and Paladin will be up top on each side as well.

One possibility: Create one of everything and level it to somewhere around 5 or 10 :smiley:

Then you can get a feel for the classes and see if one in particular pops out at ya.

Edit: Actually… wait… this wouldn’t work on a pvp server, I guess. You’d still have to make the decision between Horde and Alliance…

So, ok, how about this: Create practice characters this weekend on the regular World of Warcraft, and level them up to, like, 3 or 5 or something. Get a feel for each one, and see if you feel drawn to one over the others.

Analyzing your post indicates you are often conflicted and most likely bipolar.

Druid is the class for you.

It can focus on several roles. It will be the most under represented class. It is good in wPvP. And is fun once you master it.

Night elf would be the best race for druid, but it is on alliance. That faction sucks, so go with Tauren.

Hunter, Mage or Healer.

Thanks for the tips all. :slight_smile:

The writing down the classes thing then scratching them off is a good idea.

I don’t remember that well, if you wanted to tank you had to push all into tank talents and level as a tank right?

Rogue… any race (although many used to prefer the smaller races like gnomes). It’s the best experience that combines winning, losing, and corpse hopping. :rofl:

Hey thanks for the free psychoanalysis.

lol

#1 warriors arnt good until they out gear everyone even if you raid the main tank will get the gear first then you will roll off between 10 other warriors,

#2 paladin if you raid it will be as holy so your only chance as ret is rank 14 are you ready to grind rank 14?

#3 hunters are good,wanted and good for solo but you can run our of ammo in a raid also you have to deal with the dead zone in pvp.

#4 mage most likely the best choice for you if you dont want to deal with the dead zone.

so in all its either between hunter or mage unless you want to sink the time in the other 2.

Warlock. Possibly druid, after the initial rush and people realize that boomkin and feral are meme specs with only a handful of individual players able to make it work.
