What would you consider the easiest class to solo?  It would help if it had semi-decent grouping abilities as well, but that's optional.


Rogue and Hunter are both great for soloing. Neither are too great in instances/groups at higher levels, though.

So far I have had no problems finding groups, but I guess being in a 120 person guild helps.

Segeras.

As a rogue, I never have problems finding a group - yes I also am in a large guild.

Warlocks are probably the best soloing class. Rogues are the probably the best pvp. I would take a paladin over a warrior to tank, because it takes a VERY smart warrior to tank properly.

The difference between priest and shaman.

Think of it this way:

A priest is a healer. Priests have some decent shadow spells for soloing, and fear can be decent in pvp. Shaman are basicly short-lived demigods. Seriously.. Shaman can do a malarkey load of damage, and can take quite a beating. The thing is though is once their mana runs out they are worthless.

Sure it could be the same with a priest, but the priest isn't a primary damage dealer.

If it wasn't for shamans using so much mana, they would be overpowered.

Stormrage is not PvP, unfortunately. forking -Triton-, why couldn't he have picked a PvP server? :(

Tell me the server you choose, I might start an alt.

I'm down..  I think I'm going to play on Arthas.  My level 48 rogue friend plays there, and it's PvP.  I'll hit you up on AIM on friday when I buy it.

If you can find a copy of the game.

They haven't stopped selling it since I bought it... They just can't keep copies on store shelves.

Join Stormrage. Unless you like being ganked on PvP servers. Also, Shamans aren't quite as useless without their mana as you think. Windfury and tank it out works, if it didn't I wouldn't be 52 or be playing my Shaman still.

Being ganked on PvP servers?  Get some skillz dude.  My 43 Night Elf Rogue can drop 3 40-48 horde without healing.  They can try to gank, i'll just give em more than they can handle.

You would just prefer to sit back and have a dandy old time with horde and  5ths around a campfire.  Join the professionals.

Battlegrounds is supposed to turn WoW into Warcraft 3. What I mean is it is the war scenerio with units, bases, resources, all in the WoW environment. To get resources you have to do quests inside battlegrounds ect. This is all going on while a gigantic battle is raging on.

Read the full battlegrounds preview (parts 1 and 2) and you will get a pretty good idea. It is basicly 40 horde vs 40 alliance.

This is only for the 1st battlegrounds though. From what I understand they are going to do things differently for each one.


And as eViL said, PvP is a lot of fun. You gank, you get ganked, then you get your guild together and raid their towns. It is a lot of fun. You can avoid battle with mobs if you are smart. If someone of the opposite faction wants to fight you, you are either going to fight them, or not quest in that area for a while.

Besides, on my server there isn't much corpse camping. You just die, and they run away.

It isn't like you lose anything from dying in PvP anyway unless a mob gets the last hit.
