I prefer dwarf hunter to night elf. Yeah, the night elf get shadowmeld which has some cool uses but dwarf gets stoneform (cancels bleed, poison, disease, and gives bonus armor), frost resist (frost mage slows), and bonus to gun skill which are so much better.
To each their own but there are way better bows and crossbows than guns and gun skill doesnât matter in pvp. On top of that rogues, druids and mages are not a problem for hunters in the first place. I would rather instagib people from shadowmeld.
Theyâre both situational, for sure. Either one will be decent in the hands of a good player.
If I was forced to choose between a rogue and a shaman I would rather play the rogue from the pve perspective. But that wasnât the OPâs question. He wants to get in pvp premades also and choose between hunter, warlock, and rogue. In that frame a hunter and warlock are going to have a spot on any good premade and a rogue is not.
You have no idea where a rogue goes in a premade. Like I said there only needs to be one.
My original Hunter was a Dwarf⌠Im rolling Nelf this time⌠so much stronger in PvP.
No premades run a prot warrior. None have done that since 2006. Rogues burst is amazing but their burst is not as important as cc. I really donât know where you are getting your information lol. Check out

OG Haptix Premade WSG Guide:
Yes gnome is the best rogue race for classic for sureâŚplease take what the guy is saying about rogues in premades with a grain of salt, I donât think heâs done a premade since actual classic
I hope you enjoy getting farmed in premade groups by other premade groups that know what they are doing.
I plan to spend most of my time pvping in the open world and in AV. I may be wrong but isnât AV the best source of honor week to week in classic ?
im not even sure on that. i think premades of ab and wsg that roflstomp non premades might be the best honor per hour though.
one thing to keep in mind about warlocks though is at first you lack alot of + hit talents so your dmg is lower . you cant get any + hit from talents for destruction spells and the suppression talent is only making things resist your affliction spells less. (which includes fear resistance checks so fear lasts longer on avg)
in later phases though you get more + hit and spelldmg and + crit and become a monster. on of the tailoring sets in zg (which will be out phase 2) called the bloodvine set has quite a bit of + hit and crit and will be bis for a long time. you can buy it off the ah. you will want max tailoring though so you get the full bonus of the set .
Thanks , You guys have really been helpful. I may have to totally rethink my plans moving forward. Having only a few hours a night to play I will need to pick a class that has group value , meaning they provide some type of core utility to a group.
As always healers and tanks will be in high demand. Dps classes that bring something extra to a group then just their dps will be more valued overall. Two of my old guild mates have suggested that i drop all three of my choices and just roll a pally so i can tank , heal and dps. They also mentioned they were hard to kill in pvp.
The one thing holding me back from doing that is everything i read say they are the worst levelers in classic. Rogue and warlock are still top of my list.But i have a lot to think about. Thank you all for youâre replies so far. Lastly does anyone know what the content release schedule will look like ?
is the content release schedule. its in a sticky on the forums .
Yeah that because BC came out January 2007 duh. Guilds ran AQ/Naxx prot warriors to run flags in Vanilla and will again in Classic. Right now it looks like the number of druids will be much higher so we may not see it as often. Doesnât change the fact that rogues are a terrible burst class and will not be bursting down bear FCs.
Thatâs not going to happen just like rogues in premades is not going to happen.
Well , what classes would you say would get invited to premades 9 times out of 10 ? World and instance pvp? Lets say mainly AB and AV. WSG from the video says one of each class.
[quote=âRocksalot-malganis, post:2, topic:257064, full:trueâ] Rogues are for lazy players, donât get spot in premades, and are the worst pvp class for anything other than ganking undergeared players.

HAHAHAHAHAA
bad rogue spotted
mages / locks / priests / geared warriors / healing paladins.
ya.
There will be one rogue in every top tier premade. What they rogues job will be will be determined by faction. If you dont know that⌠then your groups will be farmed.
Why would a I play rogue when they are literally the worst class to pvp with.
Why are you choosing hunter over rogue if rogues are so great then? Because you know hunters are better and that is what the OP asked.
