What's the best Class in WoTLK?

These are the things i’m looking for in my next main:

  1. Easy to use and understand, 10 buttons or less.
  2. High DPS in both PvE/PvP
  3. Glad Viable (I plan on hitting 2400 top 1% at WoTLK Launch)
  4. ICC Viable (I plan on raiding ICC 25H and topping charts)

Please let me know a class that can match those requirements, thank you!

Whichever one you like.
:axe:

Some classes aren’t viable lol, you can’t go Ele sham for example cause no one will ever group with you in PvE despite being S tier in PvP.

Rogue. /10

for this gent …

frost mage for sure

:wink:

Which class isn’t viable?

Some specs might not be desirable, but every class has multiple specs to choose from.


Also, Mage is probably a good class for your requirements.

imo Shaman isn’t a viable class for anything PvE, everything can do what they do but better. In PvP, def top dog with Ele but even then it’s kinda like you can only enjoy one aspect of the game.

Druid is gonna be in the same category.

My first LK kill was on a druid, specc’ed balance at the time.

That was over a decade again so not exactly relevant anymore, it’s not meta in the solved version of WoTLK we’re getting.

feral druid kitty dps is top dps by far in all content

You should be a comedian, incredible jokes :rofl:

Rogue or Mage.

If I make a mage rn for TBC and get it to 70, will I be able to get into groups easily for gear?

Yeah, but we also mostly have data from Private Servers, which is not the same codebase as Blizzard actually has, so our best guesses right now are based on whatever people coded based on their memories and whatever data was available to them on the Internet.

We’ll see how things actually play out.

Well there’s a lot of trusted sources that have played old WoTLK + Pservers who have some very similar lists, they all say Feral is B tier at most.

It’s cool, if your crits land it works but it’s too dependent on RNG and small mistakes means huge DPS loss vs. classes that can just mongo out fat DPS constantly.

Again, it’s private servers. That’s a roll-your-own codebase; not Blizzard’s code.

Of course, we have some idea based on videos, log-data, archives of old theorycrafting sites like EJ, etc. and there may be some pretty reasonable guesses, but we’ll see how things actually end up playing out.

It’s not the same codebase, which may be somewhat significant (as it’s literally all the server-side code, which is mostly everything).

Yes. Just have imp blizzard.

balance druid is still great for 10man icc hc specially LK, but anyway

with practice every class can be easy to use.
High DPS in both PvE/PvP (warrior/Rogue)
ICC Viable (I plan on raiding ICC 25H and topping charts) (Warrior/rogue)
2s will not give glad in wotlkc, so you’ll consider a class from those 3s glad comps.

2 other people said Mage.

Mage vs Rogue vs Warrior

if you cant manage to figure out the pve rotation of cat druid, theres no way you can get glad.

actually not true, youll probably just by a carry
