I chose a main for GW2 instead and plan to build my homestead!!!!
Let the hair go brother, your bald grittier chad days are ahead of you.
5:38 Bellular 2.0 the guy that upstaged the self conscious attic goblin.
I know dragonflight was all about earrings and purple hair, but now we're getting raw earthern grit.
And if Matt can stop looking like a Gilnean chauffeur that would be cool also.
As a true altoholic, just play everything, problem solved.
Same. I just stick to casual stuff and never encounter any of these issues.
I will say that the most fun I've had is getting to learn the rotation of a new class
21x max toons on Azuremyst Horde, Im ready to pick whatever at launch xD
Absoutely. The hardest question is what to start with.
Exactly xD ...
If theres one thing the chart section should tell people, is even if your class isnt at the top, you can still perform very well. Just look at how close everything is. Truly, play what you want, you'll be fine.
There is no "wrong" choice. It's a video game we play for fun. If you're playing with people who put pressure on you for picking the "wrong" class, find some new friends.
That's kinda the point Bell starts the video with. The wrong choice is usually just following the flavour of the month
I dont even have friends i pug ans sadly when it comes to pugs the right class matters.
Well if your team is pushing then there kind of are wrong choices but if you are just playing as a casual then no. absolutely you can do heroic raids with any choice.
@@marcelrodriguez2067 Yeah... doing pugs is a great way to destroy your mental health.
@@bobbythefish4836its the only way for many.
If people played the classes they liked purely based on the fantasy more than its DPS potential, people would enjoy the game a lot more.
Some would. I know peope that just doesn't feel like that. And that's okay
As a rogue sin player, i can tell you that no matter how big the numbers are, you can't make that shit feels good actually
I always have I could care less if they are good or not . Also have friends to do stuff with so I don't have to worry about metas.
doing that since 2007 and still outperforming all try hards
Some people feel comfortable with one rotation and that gives them incentive to roll that one class and spec. Some people are comfortable with any rotation and don't feel the need to limit themselves. In that situation, the logical choice, if your goal is PvE content, is to play the class that contributes to success
Im gonna spare you 14:42 minutes, play what you like - there isnt a wrong choice, fuck charts
THIS RIGHT HERE!
WoW players when guide focuses on numbers: Meta slaves are so boring >:(((
WoW players when guide focuses on preference: This video is useless >:(((
It was an insightful video for me but I get what you’re saying
@victorlotz3457 how do you know it's the same players? Did you do a survey? Write down names?
These videos are getting more and more just bleh.
Only read the title but..
Play whatever u feel like.
The game is not enjoyable if u are not.
Feels like AI generated content.
yep play what you want, if you have a community or guild, else you have extended queue for mplus/raid later :D
@@Neverlucky_WoW or, wait for it, don't do mplus/raid later if the queue bothers you.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I LIKE
I'M GONNA LEVEL EVERY CLASS yep
A good player can make a "dead" spec work. People call a spec dead just because it's 4% below the avg or doesn't bring a raid buff, it's terrible mentality.
it's wow for you, we optimized fun out of the game
If you are looking at the meters/charts one thing most people ignore is class representation Surv hunter for example for much of SL was considered a dead garbage spec but had such a low player count compared to all the other specs that it was probably a lot better than whats shown at face value
Na there are definitely usually 2-3 specs that are legit dead. Just like there are usually 2-3 specs that are hyper powerful.
Idk man, some braindead people might call a spec dead that easily, but by that metric every spec in the game other than the top 2-3 are "dead," that's definitely not what the community means in general. The difference is more like 15-20% from the top, which is absolutely enough to make the difference between a win or a loss. I mean, ask yourself, if you're pugging something that's not faceroll easy, do you want your group to be packed with specs doing 15% less damage/healing than the "good" ones? When failing a run of anything outside of a static means you've completely wasted potentially hours of your time, it's understandable that the community learned to hedge their bets and not take that risk...
There's no "wrong choice" what on Earth is this clickbait.
EDIT: Well other than actually *choosing* to play Alliance.
Excuse me? 🤔
@@k1ndr3dspirits The title is in English.. work it out..
Alliance is better than the faction which bent to the will of a singular mass murdering psychopath.
Haha alliance bad horde good even tho that stupid faction rivalry doesnt matter anymore hehehuhu funiiiii lmaooo
Edit: still funiiiii aaah I can't I can't I'm gonna die hahahahahahuhuhuh
Isn’t that a clickbait comment? 🤡
it's not that no one plays rogues you just can't see them cause they so sneaky.
Outlaw rogue is so fun, even if it's not the king it once was.
Apparently Blizzard can't see them either and thats why they keep getting overlooked.
i still love sub, shame though
TL;DR for those looking for Bellular's class rankings.
Literally Can't Go Wrong:
- Paladin
- Mage
- Monk
- Death Knight
Good, You Won't Regret Them:
- Demon Hunter
- Evoker
- Priest
- Shaman
- Warlock
- Warrior
- Hunter
Need Work, Select With Caution:
- Rogue
- Druid
Is paladin begginer friendly?
@@pauliusnanukas7183In my opinion, absolutely. Self-heals, movement utility, simple rotation, etc. Arguably the best beginner friendly class in the game right now.
Hunter is another great option but make sure you take Misdirect as a talent for added survivability.
@@OrbitStorm thanks for reply. And is it good for dps?
I'LL ALWAYS PLAY ROGUE YOU CAN'T STOP ME!
Blizzard: Nooo 😡 😭 don't do that! We're doing our best to make everyone stop playing it! (lol)
@@ericv738 lmaooo so trueee
Respect
Brothers. We shall lose together. Except Paul. Alliance nearly always wins for some reason.
see i really like outlaws crackshot/vanish/fan the hammer build i know people hate it and it is kinda annoying for openworld shit but M+ i love it.
I will NEVER stop maining druid, ever.
That's how it should be. I've always played DK since wrath. IDC if it's bad. I'm just a DK player. is what it is.
Main Feral Druid here for 7 years, swaped to Monk and I am the happiest person in Azeroth. Hope you can leave Druid addiction, the grass is greener outside.
@@Arlothar I mean, you played the most boring spec in the whole game for 7 years...
@@hobosnake1how it should be 😂 or, just play the game how you want
@@maskassmario321 It's not boring in fact is OVER complicated. Was fun but too much to track to do the same job as everyone else.
Pick a class you have fun with because this is a game at the end of the day and it should be fun for you.😊
This is the only way I do it.
Repost: I have 35 characters detailed in four documents with all the backgrounds, interactions, family trees, age and even if they are alive or not. I choose two group comps, one from the horde and one for the alliance, considering what I think will make more sense with the incoming content. Then I elect which character will drive their and the expansion narrative better and that’s how i choose the one that I’ll start.
Bros playing DnD in wow
@@forestcaine Playing DnD in wow and alone, if you can believe it. I never RP in game.
I ain't reading all dat
@@kyle1806 Wait until you see my 20 pages “short story” on the pre-exp event.
@@alexandreabranchesI wanna see it
Watching this makes me glad I gave up on the hardcore endgame of WoW. When a video game drives sweaties to chew out players for overly meta things like having the audacity to dual-wield as a frost DK, things have gone out of hand. I don't want to be around people who use parse records as weapons against other players like they are evidence in a felony trial.
I don't know why people hate on bear tank 😮💨 Being a big ass bear swiping and clawing enemies is freaking awesome.
MAKE THE WRONG CHOICE! Then learn what you liked and what you didn't like about the class and go next with the newly acquired info
I never care about the performance of a spec as much as how much fun it is to play. Having fun makes it a lot easier to get the most out of a spec even when it might not statistically be anywhere near the top.
I've always mained a Forsaken Demonology or Destro Warlock. That's what caught my attention when the game was 1st announced.
It’s fun seeing different opinions on which tanks will be good at the start of the war within. For example, I have seen people putting paladins rather low on the tanking totem pole, with bears mid to high on the rankings. Only Blood seems to be consistently near the top of everyone’s rankings.
The problem is less the numbers but more the community perception in my opinion, because if you're pugging keys, good luck finding any parties as a non FOTM spec dps.
I'm going into TWW as a Fury warrior main with a Ret/Holy alt. Been a holy paladin since OG Wrath and I loved the feel of Titans Grip. Even if Fury is below Arms in terms of DPS, I'm sticking with Fury because I LOVE how it feels. My little gnome with severe anger issues will always be my go to. And with the changes to hpally, I feel I can enjoy healing again (skipped SL and most of DF). May take some getting used to, will probably level her healing in dungeons to get used to it.
I've never understood the whole panic some people have before every expansion regarding which class are they going to play or which spec. I've made up my mind a long time ago, about which classes and specs I like and which I don't and unless Blizzard makes huge and I really mean huge changes, nothing is going to change that. I really don't care if my class or pc is underperforming, because I'm playing the way I enjoy and not the way someone else wants me to.
I love how many comments didnt actually watch the video. Saying stuff like ”play whatever u want there are no wrong choices, i dont care about charts or numbers”
Thats bellulars whole point… dont do flavour of the month top rankings, pick something u enjoy and get good at it.
Too true bro wild how people have to feel like they have some moral high ground.
But. But the title!
Fury Warrior is the only right answer best spec ever made
Ok. So that's your opinion. Its your right.
[2:50] thank you for talking about this. I feel like a large portion of players do not know how to read those graphs and extrapolate the wrong things.
Never in the history of World of Warcraft has rogue, mage or warrior been a bad choice. They are the three classes you can roll with 100% assurance of being overpowered in either pvp or pve or both.
You could tell Belluar was playing paladin way before this video based on how highly he spoke of it compared to everyone other content creator.
Good video! I think you laid out expectations really well for how satisfied anyone might be by picking a class
As a person who has alternately mained Prot Pal and Resto Druid since Cata, I could not be more excited for the state of the game right now. I definitely hope that they fill in the gaps for rogues, non-resto druids, and any other inadequately loved classes. The more high-performing classes we have, and the tighter the margins are between them, the less people get obsessed with the meta, and the more we can get back to having fun playing what we want to play with the people we want to play with.
I have mained an Unholy Death Knight since Wrath and I will continue maining him going forward. All these "flavour of the month" rerollers can suck it.
Same here. Unholy FTW. Especially in War Within, you just feel like the Lich King himself lol.
@@Noc-1112 I'm kinda salty that they nerf Frost DKs in the last pre-patch update but I'll always main my Frost DK.
But I felt like a God in legion when frost DK was at it peak lolol
@@tolow16 Isn't frost superior to unholy actually ? I mean, FDK were nerf but they are still top no ?
@@moreauclement9702 Possibly but I haven't watch any comparison videos yet as of late.
I'm here because i keep leveling classes, but i can't play because i don't know what to main sadge
"Bad" specs ALWAYS come around via balancing or rework eventually. Ranking how a spec looks "going into TWW" is exactly what flavor the month is. Yes I'm maining Balance as I have since WOTLK and I'm not worried at all.
Sorry but that is simply not true.
There are some classes that is just always good.
You are right in theory but statistics over the years say otherwise
@@havtor007 you are missing the point he was trying to make dude
C’mon Bellular, you’re better than this title! It’s clearly written to make people worry, feel bad and click.
We deserve more respect than that, I’d hope?
DK for me .. I want to controller/deck a lot in the War within and DK fits for me
Same!
Meta and minmaxing is a way to make a job out of your game.
If anyone is telling you you're playing the wrong class you need to GQUIT immediately and block them 🤨
This video is about picking the wrong class FOR YOU.
Maybe not the wrong class but spec for sure! we want the most pew pew :D
I basically only pvp.
I play hunter.
I can top the damage charts if I want to, but DMG is only a portion of gameplay.
I fall to midrange in KB's intentionally, because I spend so much time ccing and debuffing etc.
I play extremely supportive to my teams, as opposed to punching my way to the top of the chart.
I win more than I lose in randoms and I think this may be why.
Weve all lost plenty of BGs with our team topping the KB and DMG chart.
If you lose but you top the chart you just literally awarded yourself an "L".
Same goes for raids.
No one but YOU cares if your toon can max dmg.. they care if you can support them all the way to a "W" .
There is no wrong choice, play what class you prefer. If you're waiting for someone to tell you what class to play in wow, you need to re-examine yourself.
I understand your desire for Paladin because of transmog. The armor and class aesthetic is something you will be staring at FOREVER so having it be a pleasant experience is sound logic to me.
>wow players complain wow is no longer fun
>minmax the fun out of each release
woah
Outside of Havoc DH being a complete and total mess to play (opener is 18 specific inputs) and messing up slightly puts you at tank-level DPS. It's just unfun (coming from a now-former Havoc main). Other, play what you want and what you're good at.
rogues hero talents dont work witht he specs they are ment to be for because the specs mechanics lol
I miss when DH was just spam tbh
Whats it like to raid /M+ as havoc? I've mained a rogue for years but I didn't have as much fun doing end game with that last time because of the awkward aoe and I think the spamminess is finally getting to me. Was considering havoc or maybe a mage.
@@Perid0tStar With the new hero talents? Awful to play for decent damage. It's a big clunky opener every single pack. I was a Havoc main from 7.0 to 10.3, and I'm going back to Survival (main from 1.0 to 6.2).
Well if ur having fun currently in the pre patch on ur class then uve made the right choice
I think M+ S1 will be a Bear Meta, it's in a good place tbh, Resto is the real worry in the current beta state
the video is not about the meta
20 years until someone actually says hey play what you enjoy. ive played feral for a long time and its been one of the most underrated dps classes out there but yet when i play it I'm consistently top dps and i do a butt load of damage. thanks bell for letting us know we can still be good even if we arnt top tier. loking forward to war within.
Reminder for a regular person VPNs are 100% worthless and does practically nothing for you.
Ill play that what i played always. I dont care for numbers. I care for my character whit whom i played the whole game.
I've been looking around at tier lists for TWW and not one of them is the same. Unless you're trying to be one of the top end players just play what you will enjoy...
I hate elitism like that. "Don't make the WRONG choice".
There is no wrong choice. If you have fun it was the right choice. Stop fearmongering.
My rogue tops charts in 90% of heroics I do, assassination feels great
just play what ever you want, this shoudlnt be a question in 2024
As someone that mained a Ret since 2005, this videos are funny to me
Went from Balance Druid to Fire and Arcane Mage and I am having a blast with it.
i switch specs a lot to prevent burnout and pick almost purely based on fun (only exception is if a healer is so mathematically undertuned that its close to impossible for them to do things like resto shaman in early df) and i genuinely hate when the spec i swap to ends up being very good/flavor of the month. i have guildmates that switch based on power and i dont like suddenly competing w the tryhards when i was just trying to have a good time
sticking with my usual list order -> havoc dh, sub rogue, frost mage, bm hunter
Paladin has been my main since legion, tried DH for dragonflight but I'm going back. Very happy with the changes. Thanks to warbands I'm gonna play fire mage on the side and go back to healer on main c:
This expansion has been one of the toughest for me to choose my two “main chars.” And I mean that in a good way because of what I see as a lot of fun, interesting changes
You can do well if you invest time into practicing your spec/class. Let people play what they wanna play.
Idk why I watched this video. I’m just going to play a DK like I always do. Blood always feels great to play and you just can’t beat the class fantasy and burst potential of unholy.
I think the title is fine. Im glad youve explained how dps charts and tier lists work. All these people saying theyre going to play arcane mage is frustrating.
As a Balance main since TBC, the spec feels fine - frankly better than DF since I didn't run pulsar. It's that other specs got a massive glowup, not Balance becoming actively worse. But god that class tree. I've hated it since DF launch.
My main will be prot warrior, dps fury and healing, resto druid or sham. Though I mostly like prot war for the game play. It feels really fun working out what my spell reflects are and learning the dungeons. A lot of tanks like druid and dk. Just delete mechanics through healing. Especially at lower m+. Really looking forward to puzzling out where and how to pull.
me watching this knowing damn well that I'm going to play mage no matter what: "Mmm, yes, very interesting."
If i still play the Loremaster, i already have chosen Draenei MM Hunter for that.
Raiding: Shadow Priest.
PvP: Frost DK, Retri Paladin, Fury Warrior.
Glad you took transmog into consideration
I play DH, Pally, DK and Monk (I love tanking but I actually love healing with my monk). But this Expansion I'm really enjoying my DH as DPS.
I've been doing shadow priest in tww and to be honest I might be a bit squishy but I dish out a ton of burst dps and can quickly kill groups of mobs in world content
Bellular resorting to clickbait titles is so damned funny
What is clickbait about it?
And this is new?
@@victorlotz3457 there is no WRONG choice.
@@damo8791 Yes there is. If you pick a main that you don’t enjoy just because it’s meta or that your team needs a specific role. Or if you pick a dead spec that you don’t care much about.
@@victorlotz3457 you're brainwashed. Meta doesn't matter for 99% of players.
I used play Rogue back from vanilla to WotLK... as far as I am concerned Rogues have been nerfed right around after WotLK... and have NEVER fully recovered.
That's why I am kinda pissed off that I switched over to Druid (largely because of Feral spec)... only to now find that they've been put into the gutter too. I truly hope that Blizz fixes up at least one of those classes ASAP.
Luckily these days I also semi-main a couple of Paladins too (and I want to try giving Evoker a fair shot too).
There is no wrong choice. The class that you choose should be the one that is most fun for you.
What surprises me... the new areas, all of them, look extremely small compared to the areas of previous expansions.
The potential dps difference between the best and worst specs is closer than warcraft logs show.
The highest performing players gravitate towards better specs bc they have to play what's optimal for guild progression.
This inflates the difference between the top and bottom performers. If top players played the 'worse' specs more, the numbers would be much closer. Wow is rly balanced now
Also having a balanced raid/party comp is way more important than maximizing potential dps, so just play whatever you think is cool. Dont pick the fotm top dps class
People say this a lot, but I'm really not sure it's true. I mean, the difference in average damage between the top and bottom dps specs (excluding Augmentation) in the mythic logs shown in this video is ~15%, while the difference between the top and bottom in the heroic logs shown is ~24%. Why is the difference in spec performance worse in heroic then, when it's mythic where all the good players allegedly huddle together in the meta specs so the "bad" specs don't get good parses?
Do you enjoy Paladins Buzz Lightyear tier set?🤔
I came here hoping to learn how the classes feel and play with the changes, instead I got some generic tier list with comments like "things are improved" or "These are good classes".
Maybe useful for some, but it didn't really help me make any choices for a main.
Went all Dwarves one of each armor class, and classes ive never really played before hoping the new experience will keep the game fresh. PALLY, SHAMAN, MONK, AND AN EARTHEN PRIEST. Wish me luck.
I play a Warrior in SoD, parses are everything for the sweaty. Me, I'm content just being a tank and not parsing.
I tend to pick a main per xpac with any pally ready to go as fall back. this xpac, healing evoker really won me over, especially as i've been more interested in healing in general over the last few years
I'm so happy to hear Paladin is looking good, it's my favorite class fantasy and aesthetic. I'm gonna try to learn to do Holy because I love healing.
Survival is finally in the state I wanted it to be in since its rework in Legion. It's got a few issues still but the core hybrid ranged/melee weaving gameplay is everything I ever wanted out of a class. I'm still not a huge fan of the bomb theme mixed in with all the nature stuff but the gameplay is just THAT good that it's not really an issue for me. I'll be going Sentinel whether it's the meta pick or not too since it just has pretty visuals.
One thing re: 2h melee is there is usually a ton of competition for the drops, i.e. there will be a lot of dps playing paladin, warrior, and dk, not to mention dk tanks. I mained paladin in BfA and it was fun but damn it took a bit longer to get the gear I wanted.
I wish every single player would listen and heed this video.
There is definitely a wrong choice, it's the class that does not get raid invites
Rogue then, lol
Unless you're a player who doesn't do raids, then that choice is irreverent
Or you just have freinds who wants to have fun and dont care if a boss lives 10 seconds longer.
@@avidcollector869 its called finding a guild but LFG got yall crippled.
@@Dragonfire2505most people that play wow dont really have friends they just pug like me so it matters lol
Been a Windwalker Monk since WoD. Will be a Windwalker Monk until long after The Worldsoul Saga
I could understand picking meta classes if you're in a serious guild that's focusing Mythic raiding.
But 90% of us just play for fun and a lot of us grew up where we can't put that much time into WoW as we used to when we was younger.
I did Normal and some Heroic raids on my main Frost DK while it was at it's worse and I was able to do the raids without much hiccups.
Just play with what you like and have fun. :D
I am goin' druid this time. I just wanna level fast and easy and enjoy the story.
I won't do end game things.
With stealth some quests are going to be faster.
Being able to collect items in travel form makes some other quests faster.
Being able to switch to travel form without cast time make other things faster.
I'll be playing Arcane Mage. All of the utility, plus a VERY fun updated gameplay experience that's also powerful? Can't go wrong. Even if they nerf it the other two specs are solid.
You're right. However if you're going to play M+ no one will invite unless you play one of the meta specs. Sadly...
Man I love guardian druid. It's sad to see so many people hate it.
As a PPal main, prot is pretty far behind all the other tanks. And you'll notice it before you hit +10 in m+. Probably just fine for raid up to CE.
ain't no nerf-shadow who will extinguish my eternal flame to play Paladin in this Addon!
druid last place of tanks? dude what are you smoking?
did you watch the video? the whole point is druid it's not fun, in spite of 'rankings'
We are close, I'm Pally Hunter then Lock, been doing the same for yearssss
As a feral druid, I've been perfectly happy.
I been playing a human warrior since vanilla and will continue here. My main alts are Mage, DK, and Pally.
People folk to the specs with the most potential regardless the likelyhood of the average player reaching that potential. Based.
I wish it could be Disc, but it's gonna be so tough getting into groups as disc. I love Hpal, but the tier set doesn't look any good on an Earthen. So that means it's a resto shammy season.
Mixing the new shammy set with the Ny'alotha set makes a great fallen Tidesage vibe on a Kul'tiran model.
Coming fast, still haven't decided! Hopefully this will help me lol!
Excellent video. This video definitely helped me on my choice. I'm trying to choose between Paladin, DK and Monk as my main. And Mage/Warlock/Hunter for my alt. My main before was a Druid, and I'm a bit disappointed in where they are now. So, I'm probably going back to my old Paladin tank, but DK and Monk looks interesting as well, especially that DK hero tee. So it's a tough choice. Thanks for the video!
Never resonated with shaman in my 14 years of wow until now. Shaman will be my main with pally, fistweaver, hunter, & either mage or lock as my PvP alts
