Hardest cause mechanically bad or hardest cause highest skill ceiling?

Big difference.

For the former case i’d pick DH or Hunter.

Feral/Sub for the later.

prob surv hunters since they dont mash shiny buttons like every other class, and hunter cc + pet surv is pretty hard to pull off.

Feral/Sub are the highest skill cap, but they’re also relatively good at the moment. Hunter is on the harder side of classes, but is probably the worst class in PvP at the moment.

I’d take a pick of those depending on your definition of ā€œHardestā€.

Hunters in terms of mechanical skill. Warlock would have been my choice 10-15 yrs ago though.

Can I get a rest in peace for the survival Hunters. </3

Rdru maybe disc for healers

Like talking to be successful and don’t have one-shot things?

Demo warlocks for DPS, warlocks already get sht on and this spec is a complicated mess

MW monk for healers, literally playing handicap mode

It depends, like in terms of skill cap shamans, rogues, ferals, warlock and survival tend to have very deep kits so they can do a lot.

In terms of current meta success then it’s any class that isn’t meta and has a deep kit since they have to put in more work to get equal success.
Though other mage specs have a higher skill floor, fire definitely has a very low skill floor. 3 spell schools so you don’t even need to fake (most mages don’t need fake until top of the ladder due to lack of punishment). Overly tanky, DB off poly DR while also having shimmer. One of if not the most reliable burst window in the game.

Frost definitely has a high skill floor and ceiling since it doesn’t have nearly as strong as fire and it relies more on faking and nuance in how it does damage.

I mean I read through this and you got a lot of questions and answers. But a but more clarification would help. I don’t know every class well enough to speak for them but MW monk is the most broken class in pvp. I’d imagine dk, mage, druid (feral), and a couple other classes have a ton of keybonds to make them harder (for me in my older age my finger reach is lesser than it was 7 years ago, so I lose easily accessed keybonds). Skill wise I’d imagine a lot of classes are hard but being able to keep up a rotation for dps and cc to me always sounds the most difficult. Gun to my head I had to pick, it’s ret pally… I kid I kid, I’d say it would be really hard to be a really good ele. I know that seems wierd. But a lot of key binds with the totems, need to off heal in some situations, setting up damage rotation, and also cc.

ive tried pretty much every class except hunters, mages, and pallies (ive had low level of those but nothing serious) and honestly the hardest to me are feral and WW. easiest for me are warrior and DH. this is based on ease of rotation, nothing else.

Rogue’s challenging if you’re just picking it up, but it’s not nearly as hard as it was pre-legion.

Stop it…
