1. Class suggestion

    Hi there, i'm writing because i want your opinion about choosing a class.

    I've played wow since Wotlk retail, quit for cataclysm and pandaria and then i came back to retail in WoD (worst exp ever made).
    I'm a Pvper and 90% of time i like to do arena/bg. I was used to do PvE content only if it was needed to upgrade my char in PvP, like trinkets etc.

    I played all the classes and spec on live servers and in these many years basically i reached between 2.2-2.5 rating with everything, some exp i mained war, some exp i mained Disc, some Hunt etc.. (not reroller, instead i like to play the worst class of the patch to get better challenge, like now in retail i'm propbably the only Disc priest in the milky way, 99.9% are Holy).
    But since retail is garbage trash and we are near wotlk classic, i wanted to come here try some classes.

    Back in the old wotlk i was Main Udk , and had alt Arms (and did really good ratings with both, higher dk). Now on blackrock i'm trying Sub rogue and it is really fun. And i want you to suggest me a main for Frostmourne server (and later wotlk retail).

    My priority atm is: Warr --> Udk --> Sub

    Udk is my biggest nostalgia cause it was main back in the days and i'm really good at it. Arms was my main since WoD and so on in retail for many many years, and i'm curious to see Arms full potential in wotlk, even tho i think i will not be into pve so much, to get bis pve and smourne. And Sub is my new curiosity class, it's fun (when stars align) but it is pve content depend like warr i feel.

    There are so many other things i wanna say, but the post i think is already too long.

    Please help me decide <3

  2. Arms in WotLK is more powerful than Unholy and I'd go so far to say the best DPS for arena in 3.3.5, hitting high ratings with it is easy mode. Unholy will struggle since it doesn't have heal reduction but it's nowhere near bad. 2s combos with Sub require most skill since they heavily rely on CC and timing them well so if you want something that's mostly oriented that way, play Sub.

    True but i've noticed, that as Arms (sometimes) i struggle vs some caster comp: spri/frost , ele/destro and these are really strong in 3s aswell, while with dk it goes much better, maybe because i play my warr here with low resi (around 870) or some missclick.

    I saw the ladder here, and ye there are a lot of war/pal comps, butmany people told me that ladder is completely broken, cause 7/10 high rated warrior use scripts to play perfect vs any team, so i wonder if same skill/gear Udk may be at same level of arms, since both have pros and cons.

  4. Warrior is top tier, but start to really shine only at the end of the expansion with smourne and hc pve offsets. If you don't plan to obtain these, you will not see his true power. Rogue is the same, heavily dependant of high end pve gear (not as much as warr, but still).

    Considering that you gonna play on frostmourne, which is going to run trough all the expansion, I would suggest you UHDK.

    Its a overall op class, it will do wonderful during the whole expansion, especially early phases, even with little or no pve gear, and in the end it will still be a very good arena class with many comps capable of doing great, especially in 3s.

  5. If you are not into pve then I'd stick to DK because warr and rog require many pve parts to be good.
    If you want to be underdog play Fdk + hpala which does incredible well 2s.
    With UH spec I'd choose preg pala as partner.

  6. War: Top tier dps in both pve and pvp, needs endgame gear though. Not really great until arp cap, shadowmourne, STS etc.
    DK: Top tier in duels, not that great in arena. Holy paladin is unkillable without healing reduction, unless the comp is bursty like ele + destro
    Rogue: Again a scaling class like Warrior, although to a lesser extent. Sub pvp is hard but rewarding, it's just not as good as Arms. Also have one of the best dps specs with endgame gear (combat)
