dh dps is supposedly pretty badass, can't find any info on where they rank against other classes. but from the fury warrior vids I've been watching, I have no need to ever play dh because fury dps in legion is nuts.

the tank spec is actually awful. it was an afterthought and it doesn't seem like many people enjoy playing it

So I see they are leather wearers, so basically the same as Druid Tanking then. Except druid tanks are beast lol

I'm curious to see how the tank spec works because my main role is tanking. We'll see.

I've heard IMMENSE hype over the damage they do though.... Still pretty upset that they start out at level 98 and you have a starting area like the Death Knight... Would have loved leveling them up from 1-100.

I've been watching some preach vids, this one seems to be pretty cool.

they were initially designed to be a pure dps spec so yeah it makes sense that they'd wreck face

seems like pally tanking is going to be still be complete garbage in legion.
prot warrior has a few changes that seem iffy to me, supposedly the rage you can generate passively is linked to how much damage you take/how much health you have. I think this should be an alright system but I'll have to tank some stuff on tuesday night with my guild to get a feel for it.
I just looked up a vid about dh tanking and it seems to be way better than the last time I checked. still doubt that I'll ever play it though. and honestly the thought of playing a demon hunter makes me feel like I'm encroaching on memelord territory. ebin demn hunteres !!
dk is still dk lol
and guardian druid is apparently really sick but it's a druid and I won't ever play one again.

it's likely that I'm gonna be maining a warrior throughout legion

I've always had a soft spot for Pally/DK Tanking. Wrath of Lich King was absolute to have a Pally Tank and ever since then I rocked it out. Until WoD that is because it fell off HARD.

I leveled my warrior to 100 for Legion so I'll be sure to indefinitely utilize him since from what I've read around is that Warriors are going to be 2nd best behind Druids in the form of tanking.

Apparently, the order from "best" tank to worse is going to be:

Druid -> Warrior -> Demon Hunter -> Death Knight -> Paladin

That's such a god damn shame. But, i DEFINITELY agree with DH's being memelord terriroty holy shit

EDIT: I'll be watching that video tonight once i'm finished up streaming/playing my challenge game, thanks for the link!

EDIT2: I didn't include monks merely because there is a lot of talk over them recently.

Wow Preach Gaming has the Ranking of the tanks as (Best -> Worst)

Best - Guardian Druid -> Blood Death Knight -> Vengeance Demon Hunter -> Protection Warrior -> Protection Paladin -> Brewmaster Monk


That's very interesting to see the changes they've made to the Death Knight. I've always loved the DK, but have hated the reputation it has had. Though, I don't know how I feel about the 2 talent rotation.... It was always based upon mitigation, still will try it out though along with DH and Druid Tanking

I imagine a fair amount since the last time we talked. I am sure we should catch up (probably out of thread). Getting back into WoW again and looking for a cool place to settle in guild wise for the next xpac. Any guild I am in at this point never talks or hardly has any people on. Even open to rolling a brand new character if I have to.

Any word on the best healing classes? I'm most likely gonna play my paladin in Legion if I get it. I have every other class nearly maxed (80 or higher)

Maybe at the start of the xpack, everything changes as they release more content and do some buffs/nerfs.

I honestly hope they get better because as is, if I'm allowed to make any decisions on who we have for healers, it's likely that I won't be happy with a paladin.
but we also have a month and a half or so to get used to the new class changes, so maybe one of the pallys in our guild will pick it up and be good at it by the time legion hits

Two more shirts to go. Will I get them all before Legion madness skyrockets the prices of these shirts? :v

legion.wowhead.com/guide=4149/a-guide-to-legion-legendaries

you guys ready for 100 or so new legendaries that just fucking drop in the world?
blizz said that later tiers of raiding will be tuned with legendaries in mind so if you want to be competitive you absolutely have to farm this shit

at the end of the day I ultimately don't care about these legendaries being easily available to everyone. but I do think that having them just drop while questing or whatever devalues them; at some level, it's just so you can say "HEY LOOK I HAVE AN ORANGE." it's not a legendary, it's an orange.

what I do care about is that these will eventually be mandatory for raiding beyond lfr which is something I absolutely will be working towards this xpac. if I want to tank, I'll need to get three of the four prot legendaries. if I want to run fury, I'll need all four. the only legendary that I'd actually care about is the bracers. self healing is always welcomed.

I guess this has a diablo-ish feel to it, but eh. it doesn't affect my general gaming but it will affect my raiding.

since epics already devalued as status symbol, the next obvious step was legendaries
