Mages are fun, glass cannons, but as I'm slowly being reminded of recently, they don't go toe to toe with many things very well. <br /><br />Paladins and Druids are very choice, especially if your into PVP in anyway. Also, both make excellent tanks or healers for finding a pick up group is always easy.Oakstouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18338018420187011141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287859335174901821.post-54448926734857892712009-10-04T00:01:54.109-04:002009-10-04T00:01:54.109-04:00I have not made it past level 12 on a warlock, or ...I have not made it past level 12 on a warlock, or level 17ish on a mage.

It's good to see ...Holy wall of text, awesome!<br /><br />It's good to see your thoughts about how the various classes took some inspiration from the older RPG styles. <br /><br />You are right about the WOW paladin being a split between the classic DND paladin and cleric - leaning more heavily one way or the other depending on how you spec your character.<br /><br />Warriors of comparable level do just about the same as you would if you were retribution spec, assuming of course, the warrior is specc'd for damaged.<br /><br />I have a level 60 hunter. They do solo very well, but I found I didn't much care for the play style of laying traps and constantly running away to get range on things. I'm more of the up in your face laying the smack down kinda player.Deftighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12404189161333779934noreply@blogger.com
