If we’re talking about WOTLK classic and you are already thinking of what you want to play for whatever reason

just play whatver you like

seriously.

Everyone will be playing the most Meta and OP classes so the less played one’s that still have utility will still be in demand. There is usually always a reason to bring a certain spec.

DK’s, Ret Paladins to begin with.

Later on, basically any class that could reach (and utilize) 100% Armour Pen became giga-busted, especially with Shadowmourne, so Warriors mostly.

I still have ptsd Nightmares of Retribution Paladins until this very Day.
Sure Death Knight where overpowered at the very beginning of WotLK, but Ret Paladins were the Apex class in both PVP and PVE throughout the entire expansion.

Not to mention a full Wrathful Geared Retribution Giga Chadadin with Deathbringers Will and wielding Shadowmourne spent his free time solo killing poor Thrall.

No, DKs were fine. Nm what they’re doing. Look at the shiny! :ring:

Hunters were obscenely busted with that armor pene. Looked at bosses and you did high DPS.

Honestly, most specs and classes did really well.

DK, 100%
My guild in WOTLK capped how many raiders could reroll DK.

Death Knights and Ret paladins reach OP status very fast but other classes catch up eventually with the right gear after DK and Ret got nerfed.

It was in WotLK where we became more than pvp fodder and tin healers wasn’t it?

WHat ranged were OP.
I kinda want to do a Lock

Val’anyr is pretty crazy too.
