Best non hunter class to have on defense .

[Snowjobs]

What would be the best class to have on d with a guardian Druid , rest Druid and holy pally .? I'm think if they get howl of terror a demo lock would be sweet . Not sure though .

 

[Hue]

demo locks are nice for the aoe snare, but i'd prefer to bet my cookies on a frost mage or a rogue

^ I really like playing D with my mage and warlock, they can just really slow the enemies progression. With a Gdruid im not sure though, you could go priest.

 

[Poparms]

i always liked playing a rogue on defense.

Great burst damage and you can sap the healer, and you shut down heals pretty easily.

 

[Goesid]

mage or ele.

If a hunt is on ramp/mid and their pet is on D does that count as the hunt being on D? If not my vote goes for the hunts pet. If it does then rogue easily. Hoj and bear hug and escaping druids so the rogue can catch up and do their 2 shotting thing

Would replace h pal with priest for AoE CCs and bubbles and add rogue for last class.

 

[Snowjobs]

Priest does sound like the best option the more I think about it . The bubble to help with burst plus scream and mind . Mage would be easier to keep up with the Druids on a kiting defense but it does t have the instant cc to deal with rogues I would want .

 

[Infernal13]

Oh my god frost mage. So much CC its arousing.


Although it's hard to find a good mage nowadays and most would get one shotted anyway. Maybe a 24?

 

[Snowjobs]

I prefer fear over root cause it does more against hunters and frisbie throwing prots . Also power word shield is very helpful. We keep pally on d for the stun and fear dispels . God a priest shoulda amazing on both ofence and defense with that insane fear cc it's a wonder I don't see more of them .

Hi - Spriest would be best in that situation TBH - Heals, Mind Control, DPS, Bubble, Fear, Burst as well as DoT pressure.

Killing the attackers sometimes is a better heal, but also keeping the Flag Carrier alive until the Healer rezzes from GY is important too. Hybrids are always great support on Defense. (See Disc Priest if you want F2P only, same abilities - less burst)

 

[Sundusk]

3 rogues bend *cough*

 

[physombia]

Can I suggest another guardian druid

 

[Stamm]

If dealing with a 4-5 man zerg, prot pala and healer. You may not be able to take out the EFC if they run off leaving you with 3-4 people, but there's been times where I just go solo hammer time on a badly geared/played horde zerg.

If it's just 1-2 feral is great. It can keep up with everything and one shot healer FC's sometimes. 1.6k fero bite followed by rake/moonfire and possibly 5 point rip ticks tend to destroy druids/preists/shamans, although sometimes I've had trouble with hpals due to armor.

 

[Gulbon]

Rogues are quite fun on D, coming from a guy who has a F2P rogue and a 24 low health big crits glass cannon rogue

 

[Snowjobs]

hehe . idk . if i am on a rogue im tunnel visioned on that efc. i cant escape that .
