Na I don’t think so. I think regular BM Hunter. Honestly only choosing Hunter because I didn’t see anyone saying they wanted to roll one. Thought about a dwarf shadow priest also, but idk if I can pull the trigger on one or not. The mana issue is meh for me
The changes to shaman tanks aren’t really what I was looking for, but as someone who played a shaman tank for years I can’t just pass up the opportunity. So I’ll be a prot shaman for sure.
Toss up between druid and warlock. Warlock get some great synergy with their runes and the tank role is my favorite. But druid might be getting some cool stuff down the line and I really like resto healing and it might be cool to level as balance if they give you the free wrath rune really early.
Shaman, Warlock, Priest, Warrior, Paladin in that order. Maybe swap priest and warrior in order. Lvl 25 cap is blessed for getting a stable of characters.
Edit: I forgot balance druid, which I will be playing third, but only to 25 because I do not like moonkin form visuals.
Wad thinking Ele Shaman but the group I’m running with is still undecided on what faction we’ll go so if it seings to Ally I’ll be doing Boomkin.
I 'll main a priest as a healer has always been my main - although druid (all specs) looks worth trying.
But I also want to play an affliction lock with the new runes (used lock for pvp in original vanilla), try out mage with healing, try out caster druid and try out paladin (prot and ret) if there is lots of time for alts (as it appears there may be).
Female gnome mage ![]()
With the level cap being 25 I’m sure I’ll level several characters. Tanking shaman, melee hunter, healing mage and holy priest are the top of the list. If I have time after that I’ll decide then, 11/30/2023 can’t get here fast enough.
Mage or hunter probably. Warlock looks cool but without threat reduction they’ll pull aggro even worse.
How boomy lookin?
If gladiator stance, warrior.
Otherwise. Strongly considering rogue just to try the blade dancer stuff that im not entirely convinced of yet.
Shaman healer as usual, though I will also try out tanking with it instead of leveling a warrior alt.
They get a nice rune making wrath 0 mana, an additional dot, + some more idk atm. Either way wont go oom and not have any damage anymore
Shaman Tank MS/Enh OS with an Ele PvP set or might just go full Ele OS 'cause hot damn Lava Burst Overloads are so much fun to play with.
Main alt will likely be Arms/Prot(Glad) Warrior because I can see those new Enrage runes being totally broken in PvP, stacking all the damage buffs and popping some poor mage with 1 fat MS.
Those are my 2 guaranteed, wanna play bits of everything though. Most of phase 1 will probably be leveling alts and seeing what’s fun at 25 and deciding what to take further when the time comes.
still lacking aoe which really is unfortunate, free wraths which is definitely nice as long as it lets you regen mana, and starsurge which is kinda weak imo even with the talents that are gonna eventually buff it
Dwarf Paladin, as always.
Perhaps a Human Warrior.
