Most fun spell-casting DPS class?

Community General Discussion

I’ve been enjoying all 3 specs of Warlock, hopped back on my old main Mage and find a couple of specs fun but it seems to be missing something. I felt more powerful as a Warlock for some reason.

I know this is subjective, but I thought I’d ask what DPS classes you enjoy with a magic-based quality the most - such as (obviously) Warlock, Mage, Priest, Shaman - and Druid - I guess that’s it?

I prefer mage. I did the same thing as you and decided on the mage. Frost has a lot of buttons and one of the more interest toolsets. Fire is also fun. Arcane seems terrible in every way.

Assassination rogue or fury warrior.

I like mage and druids, never been much a lock person but “different strokes for different folks”

Shaman and Druid, I can’t stand the Casting DPS from either of those. Mage: All three are pretty fun. Priest: Just Disc. And Warlock: Only Demo.

I’m not particularly fond of caster, but Mage I have one for each spec.

Shadow priest. With gear, good damage, heals, CC, AoE, defenses.

I also play frost mage (pretty fun but eats a lot of healing potions) and demo warlock (good fun) and switch up specs once in a while. They’re all fun - all the classes.

Going to vote Ele shaman.

Rather simple and straightforward, but it’s been growing on me.

Edit: Earth elemental can save lives, and they have a ton of helpful utility.

As long as IceFury remains ideal, ele sham will have my vote.

I have to say, I like blowing things up on my Fire Mage! The better gear you get, the more fun it becomes!

Fire mage with pyroblast procs left & right is amazingly fun. However when not getting procs even I’ll admit it gets a little boring until you get enemies to 30% health for scorch criticals

Balance Druid is my favorite. I only have mages for the food and the portals.

The amount of high end ele shams in 3s pvp and high end fire mages is about the same.

Fire mages have a slight advantage in numbers in RBGs.

Been an ele shaman main for years, and while it isn’t quite as enjoyable as it has been in some points of its life cycle, it is still a ton of fun. You can go storm ele build for big aoe numbers and overall simpler gameplay, or icefury if you want a more complex build that can pump out the single target.

You also get a lot of utility with your various totems, hex and curse dispel, earth ele, and the best pve interrupt in the game.

It’s a tough choice for me. With his pocket tank my Warlock can solo pretty much any non instanced content which is nice. But so much is AoE oriented these days and my frost Mage is really good in that area which makes things like emissaries really fast.
