Making an FC character.

Hey folks! I am planning on making an FC character. Tauren Warrior, on Aerie Peak. But could I have an armory or a Chardev?

Are FC warriors useful, or are they trash? Should I go Paladin instead?

Any other tips or useful stuff is important to me, too!
 
Paladin is your best Pugging FC. Incredible healer along with alot of armor.


In a premading situation, a full 10 man that is, a warrior is the best FC you can have. High armor, stamina and block chance, which also allows you to have an hpal keeping you topped off easily through physical DPS.
 
For nearly 100% of situations holy paladin is the best FC in the bracket. You don't want to roll warrior as they are quite useless with the low stamina you can achieve in this bracket (if AP no AGM no HP enchants). Druid comes in a close second.

For PuG's: Holy Paladin
For Premades: Holy Paladin

Oh? I am interested. But I looked up some armories on the guides section, and found what appears to be no FC Holydins. Is there an armory for a Horde Holydin FC?

Hmm I'm not sure I only play F2P's every once and a while.
 
I have horde a fury warrior just changed from prot. I will give you a knowning of the gear I used.

Head: Flying tiger goggles from engineering or Lucky Fishing Hat but very rare.
Neck: I would suggest sentinel medalition or thick bronze necklace from jewcrafting.
Shoulder: Burnished pauldrons of might. Before just stick to the ones you get from SFK.
Chest: Burnished chest of might(forgot its name) beore stick it tortoise armor or phantom armor.
Bracer: Cavedweller's bracer or bracers of the most trusted.
Leggings: Kalcgoes gift.
Cape/Belt: Get the ones from satchel of helpful goods. I would suggest the Bear ones.
Boots: Boots of the hero or savage trodders.
Ring 1: Silverlane family seal
Ring 2: Band of argras.
Trinket 1: Rune of duty or AGM.
Trinket 2: insigna of the Horde.

Main hand: Skullforge reaver. Before just use broadaxe of the Horde.
Shield: Shield against the evil presence.
Bow: Farsider's longbow.

Fully enchant all your gear and go with the professions mining and engineering.
 
I'm narrowing it down to a Protection Paladin, or a Holy Paladin. I dunno about Holy though. Holy seems to be overdone. I might go Prot Warrior for the sake of challenge, but I'd have to ensure I have a pocket healer when I pug. Are shamans even viable? Or hell naw?
 
Sorry for doublepost, but I decided to go with Prot Warrior. I made a chardev that I believe is correct.

chardev 9

Basically, I used all of the parry/dodge/block that Hitmeplease did, for Parry, I used even more.

For some reason, Chardev thinks i used less dodge, when I used a bit more. Glitch? I think so! Is this in anyway viable? :D

So here are my thoats about all classes. Dunno if you real'y need it. But maybe you'll want to play another FC also. ><

Paladin - healer with alot of armor, can live long on his heals. One of the best FC if your team is not so good and second best flag holder.
Warrior - Best survivability if getting healed and good damage (even with no vengeance). Best flag holder in premades.
Shaman - Wolf - speed, totem - mass slow, has good healing . But I prefer them to heal FC then FC by themself.
Priest - Fear, Shield, heals. Has disorient in holy - but you shields are really bad in holy. For me the worst FC in this bracket.
Druid - Best flag bringer. Best choice if your team control EFC. Best speed, you cant CC him - so cant really damage or focus him, also has some healing capabilities. After 3-4 stacks better give flag to a warrior or paladin.
Rogue - Best flag grabber. Best choice if you need to bring flag to mid field or grab it when teams fight in flag room and get out of there fast. Also good FC support with saps.
Mage - Talking about frost - lost of freeze, lost of slow, lots of CC. Best FC support that you can think of. Also with all that control and blink can be not bad FC, getting owned only by hunters.
Warlock - Also good FC support. Fear spam + has daze in destro. Can play role of FC - has good HP pool + 20% damage reduction from pet and has some healing with drain life. Btw if enemy team has good healers - warlock will outdamage even hunters. ^_^
Hunter - Has good hp pool, one of best control and can do tons of damage. Disengage can do wonders. Not bad FC because can kill enemy faster then they kill you.
Death knight - We don't have them in this bracket.

P.S.
Anyway if you have all classes in team I'd pick warrior+healer or paladin with no healers for holding, druid as flag runner and rogue for flag grabbing and bringing to druid.
 
Prot Warriors are not the best flagholders. People only prefer them in 19s premades because 1. they can have only 2 of a class and they really need those 2 Hpals and 2. Warriors are only viable if they have all that GF'd gear and all those HP enchants.

Prot Pals are the best FCs. They can get the same amount of gear, a little bit less survability, lower damage but WAY more utility. Offheals on your healers and nearby Frostmage, supportheals on yourself, Avengers to avoid CC on your healers, HoJ to get that Rogue of the healer. I would take a Prot Pal as best FC. Only reason I could see a Druid work aswell (same as a Warrior) is if you can do all the WSG jumps since most have no idea how to work top of the tunnel etc.

No, you need as much stamina as possible, the more hp you have the easier it is for healers to heal you.Use tumultuous cloak of stamina, earthbound girdle of stamina, farstrider's longbow, redbeard crest is better than kresh's back.Sadly you can't get shield against the evil presence from bfd since you chose Scales of Akumai. Strengthened Stockader Pauldrons are BIS for FC Warrior. Remember that you cannot dodge/parry magical and ranged attacks now (though, in MOP ranged attacks are dodgeable), thus more stamina is always good for this bracket because of insane burst made by hunters
Good luck, and have fun, warriors are a very fun class to play
