I want to destroy kids in BGs and casual PvP. Let me know your thoughts O Arena Gods.
Prot Warrior
Mm hunter for sure
No other comes close for destroying random people in bgs.
Yeah considering they are going with a dedicated petless build next major patch I’m pretty excited about trying MM
And also new utility - cast aimed shot while moving, bursting shot disengaging you, intimidation not obeying line of sight, double tap is back, sniper shot replaced with passive talent
Mm will be super fun in PVP
When I’m in a losing random bg, it usually means the other team is coordinating way better & the person with the most kills is a player among what’s probably a premade who’s being supported by other players. - Alone they can’t do that.
I’ve seen Rets, DK’s & Warriors play like they’re 2004 pvp montages just slaughtering us as fast as we can spawn. I’ve seen boomkins, warlocks, mages, hunters sit in the back and just 10x everyones damage.
I think you either want strong survivability with good damage, so a tank-hybrid capable class, like DK, DH, Warrior, or Druid because you’ve got a solid defensive kit for when the other team decides “ok, enough of this guy.” - I’m leaving pally out as their kit is more support/invulnerability, which means they’re kinda squishy outside of the bubble. I think ret is still a great choice for being the BG hero, i just think it’s less suited than others to being supported rather than being the support.
or ignore the above and just pick MM. Stand max range, sniper people. Unique & fun bg experience for them.
DK, DH & Warrior specifically feel to me like they were designed to be in the thick of it in bgs. So personally i’d pick one of them. Probably DK because i love the idea of gripping people into the meat grinder.
I actually do a crap load of aoe damage
By super fun you mean super broken…
This I can’t tell yet, depends on tuning. I can only comment on the gameplay improvements of the spec for now
Hopefully PTR comes early next week
Rogue, frost mage, hunter, ret paladin, or warlock.
Even if their damage isn’t super high, odds are it will still be busted. MM always stomps bgs by virtue of being a ranged with none of the downsides of actually casting.
Oh yeah lol forgot about aimed on the move with double shot.
Dev evoker
BGB - Monk because as a monk on flag capture maps you have huge control over win condition by being the best FC.
Casual BGs - some ranged class, sit back and do damage without worrying as much about healers as melees. Mage if you are good, tons of fun in random BGs. Hunter if you are less good.
Mm for sure as a noob stomper spec.
Let’s be real, it’ll be completely broken for a few weeks just like every other spec rework they’ve done recently lol
