EU+US Class tiers first impressions?

[Leek]

Are ele still viable?

Yeah it's viable but not god tier. Basically with earthen rage you just spam flameshock at groups and only use LB and lava burst only if you are sure that no melee is within range of attacking you

i pmuch agree with everything @Flaxy just posted, although since fireball is no longer bugged, dragons breath imo is the only thing that makes it any amount better than frost or arcane, but frost n arc r greatly viable as well.

ret is op as shit, its like if ret was given everything it ever needed @ 29/low level twink threshold and some additionals that werent necessary on top of it !

was given Sion-from-League-Of-Legends-like-style'd ability's that just explode targets and make them more tanky than theyve ever seemed, bubble seems better than its ever been for rets for some years too... rets are godly atm like teh new BM/ww is ret but luckily not as 1-spell-win as those specs were, although pretty close..

my prediction is the 100% speed 45sec cd pally mount spell prolly gonna get removed/cd increased like double or the horse speed cut to 60% or less, why are we able to use a spell to move faster than people on mounts @ our same level hahahahahaha... if pally stays how it is, smh

ery1 dont just go fire cuz everyone ranks it over frost n arc, its for pussy boys. i only play it when im bein a scared lil pussy boi, frost and arcane are literally just so much funner unless Dbreath needed in order to win at all(doesnt seem that necessary at all to pwn tho)

fire like a piece of gum that loses its flavour by 12-15 sec after you put it in your mouth, the flavour is the combustion, 10sec of enjoyment followed by mehhhhhhhhhh

@Jetlife , which would you say is more fun overall (considering all 3 specs) - paladin or priest? Would you say that Ret is much stronger than Disc?

What is your opinion on hunter? I see hunters with 44 KB in screen caps but no one seems to think that hunter is considered top tier.

I'd really like to play Worgen priest but I keep hearing that Horde dominates all battlegrounds by a landslide (at least in US). Is this true? I appreciate your info, man.

The Horde definitely seems to do some degree better than alliance in US bgs, but its not all that consistant(some days alli fucks us up for sure)

Priests do seem decent/great regardless, and they seem definitely like the best healer there is, cuz that bubble absorb is flat out irreplacable. Shadow seems more interesting(funner to play from a twink perspective unless you truly are someone who adore healing more than DPSing in any and all situations) than disc but disc is much more useful to a team on a general basis...

Hunter is weird, the best spec variation of hunter play isnt anything like the playstyle hunters had before this patch w/ the best 19-39 pvp specs(low lvl tinking threshold brackets) ~~ they seem 2 be different and often arent kiting/pwning from a range, although i dont have one to know exactly why but I see tons of hunters in melee range. The spec that they do this with is still strong as heck tho definitely, but honestly probably not stronger than a mage or warlock, particularly arena wise, but in bg Hunter could be just as good for all i know (not that ive seen any do that tho, hunter as a class needs some heavy hitting seroius players manning some toons so i can see what maximum potential they actually have, theyre upper tier for sure tho)

Ret sadly triumphs over all the above stuff, they're just very very insane and at the same time, very fun kit-wise(which isnt great, kinda fosters having tons of people make rets but it is what it is, rets are so fun everyone should have one eventually lol)

I don't think anyone who has played a ret level 39 or lower is able to make a ret @ 29 right now and NOT be like, ecstatically happy with how strong it is/how crazy the kit is, particularly just holy power generation being now changed into the type of holypwr gen.speed that ret players literally dreamed of and thought would never happen. its pmuch perfectly rounded to be able to do tons of templars verdicts now, just tons of em

have fun

Been having excellent results with MW monk. If you know how to use roll + mistwalk to bait out melee gapclosers and negate them, you'll have a good time. Also, Cocoon OP. Disc better when stuck on, but MW is probably 2nd for healers. Paired they are gods.
