Which melee DPS is doing well but relatively easy to play?

Doing well and easy to play and not DH?

You basically want outlaw or assassin rogue. Plus rogue survivability is off the charts and their unique utility is a godsend for mythic+.

No melee DPS is hard to play…

Save perhaps feral

Body of post besides DH.

And…they want one doing well. the best way to run havoc dh is to respec VDH. The nerfs were not kind here.

Surv hunter and feral druid are extremely difficult to play well. No spec is hard to play if you just mash random buttons and define success as doing non elite world quests.

i dunno bout that, pretty much every boss fight is the same thing for DPS and same rotation all the way through, at least with tanking you have to run around and switch stacks or do other weird things. DPS is almost always the exact same experience all the time especially Ranged DPS which barely even has to move ever.

I’ve never played survival…mostly because MM and BM simply blow it out of the water.

Have to agree to disagree, i’ve raid tanked for 13 years and it’s always been one of the most boring raid roles, with the most exciting being healer (as long as you’re not stacking too many healers)

I tanked 4 expansions…and the most exciting thing about tanking honestly…is raid leading.

It can be very dull…

Based on your requirements, the following ones come to mind, in no particular order:

Enhancement Shaman
Retribution Paladin
Fury Warrior
Frost DK

Well… they are all easy and fun melee for me. “Doing well” I have no idea, I just play what I enjoy, and ignore the ever changing meta nonsense.

Honestly, never liked raid leading as a tank, you can’t see more than the bosses crotch 90% of the time lol

for some reason when i play on my ret paladin i find myself staring at my bar too often waiting for buttons to flash.

Unholy dk is very fun and easy and you never look down :wink:

Talking about pvp. Pve doesn’t really matter too much. Just do your basic rotation and get good gear.

Roll ranged. They have it soooooo easy compaired to mele this xpack. Mele is brutal while ranged stand there free casting. Time to abandon mele till 10.0

Lol I did the old camera view distance macro…it helped a little :rofl:

DK definitely. Its quick to learn and very versatile.

Plus, theres always Blood spec if you ever need to tank n spank.

Enhancement also as decent survival with instant cast heals that you get frequently, good cds, totems help too.

Earth elemental is a great companion as well, even though he never sticks around

If you want decent dps in PvE, roll ranged. This expansion is extremely brutal toward melee. You can stand in **** and do high dps in dungeon but certainly not in raid

Frost DK is a fine spec. Its not top-tier but its really easy and you can pull your weight.

Unholy is the best melee DPS spec right now, but it requires a minimum of brainpower to play well and will probably get nerfed in a couple weeks.

Sub is the hardest of the rogue specs to play, but it’s not as complex as it used to be.

However, it still has a high skill curve. You can do marginal DPS in sub spec without knowing what you’re doing, but to dish out the DPS that has people calling for Sub to be nerfed right now, you have to know what you’re doing.
