Flooded with Hunter/Rogue

fizzle322fizzle322 Member Posts: 723

I see the whole server flooded with these classes.

Priest = Boring ass healbot. Groups have the AUDACITY to say "omg you are a shadow priest? wtf" Yeah, like they're supposed to sacrifice 31 points to heal your selfish ass.

Warrior is a great class, and very challenging, but you are stuck being a meatshield for a bunch of tards.

Prot isnt a bad tree, its just that why would you go 31 point prot just to be able to pull a train off a moron in your group?

You get these pickup groups who think having a warrior is a license to do as much damage as you can, and I'm supposed to run down 3-4 mobs when the mage AoE's, and I'm supposed to sacrifice 31 points into prot just to be a better meatshield?

Um NO.

Rogue and Hunter = Selfish prick. Can't do anything to help ANYBODY. Solo grind mobs fast fast fast to 60, then wonder why no groups want you.

Classes in WoW suck a 12 inch. You either play a selfish prick class, or you end up being a group class that has to put up with bad groups.

    I think it must be your server, because i see an even amount of every class.

    Either way, they are not selfish classes, they can do quite a lot to help others but just not in the way that other classes do (heal, protect etc.).



    I know i've been flaming a bit around these threads but im just fed up completely with posts which say "I hate this" or "This is stupid" or complaining about anything. If you dont like something, it doesnt mean you have to tell everybody your opinion.

    Thanks,

    Actually, I think that the class you play really has no impact. IMO the way that you play that class is what matters and your skill in playing that character. Sure it might be easy to solo to high level with a hunter or a rogue but that should not be a problem for any class. Also the pickup groups are generally bad and should only be considered in a case of desperation as they are very unorganized.

    I agree completely Yegor. Its not what class is played, but the person who plays it. Most of the people in my guild are friendly and will help people in need and save others lives in groups sometimes (such as when a tank cant take all the monsters on at once, they pull some of them off him/her and handle them themselves)

    You could be the best rogue in the world, but if the group needs a priest, then it NEEDS a PRIEST.

    If the group needs DPS any class can DPS, even a priest can DPS, warrior can DPS, rogue mage warlock etc can all DPS.

    But all I see is these groups shouting for hours for a priest.

    I also seem to see a bunch of priest alts all over the place, but it seems like leveling a priest is so boring, most people will simply abandon the idea before 20.

    Rogue and Hunter are fun classes, maybe too fun, especially on a pvp server, being able to walk around stealth and gank people, but is it good for the game to have these classes be so prevalent?

    I just feel that the balance of the game is off, certain classes are fun to play and others are not, as a result some classes are overpopulated and others are too rare.

    Hey I have a hunter too so I'm guilty of the same thing, but the fact is its bad for the game to have so many people in 1 or 2 classes like that.

    Um you can be a shadow priest can still heal your group, when you play a warrior your not expetced to kill the mobs by yourself thats what the other classes are for your job is to hold AGGRO. Every class is usefull in this game.

    Warrior- MT/Hold Aggro
    Rogue- High dps
    Warlock- High dps/crowd control/buff from pets
    Mage- Burst dps/crows contro/buffl
    Shamen- Heals/dps/totems
    Paladin- Heals/dps/buffs
    Priest- Main Healer/buff
    Druid- Healer/dps/buff
    Hunter- Dps/Off tank with pet

    Actually a cenusr was done adding up all the players/class on each server and it turns out that Rogues and Hunters the most pick class. Humans and Elves make up the majority of class on the Alliance side.

    However, on the Horde side Hunters, Rogues and Warriors were the three most picked classes. Orcs and Taurens were the most heavily played races.

    This is exactly the attitude I'm talking about.

    All classes are supposed to run around wtfpwning everything with huge crits, and Warrior and Priest are supposed to "do their job."

    Thats exactly what being a main tank and main healer is.

    A job.

    Killing stuff is fun. Healing and taking damage isn't.

    Maybe %10 of warriors go prot, the rest all go arms/fury for DPS which all the rogues whine about.

    If only Rogues had DPS, then %90 of the server would be rogues.

    It would be like Everquest where half the server were Druids and Necromancers for the solo ability.

    I see you played a Warrior :-)

    I played a warrior, got sick of being expected to "hold aggro" while all the asshats in the back get to do whatever the hell they want.

    Mages were the worst offenders. They like to AoE and then run around in circles while I'm trying to control the fucking train they started. Usually I just let em die and they leave the group.

    In fact I met so many bad mages, I started a mage. Now when I join groups usually we spend hours trying to find a fucking priest.

    I'm not gonna start a priest, its just too boring.

    everyone picks hunter coz its simple... easy... dps

    anyone can do it, hunters are probebly the easiest class to play.. rogue how ever are a very very hard class! people think its easy but its not! you can play to level 60... you can be fully epiced... still doesnt mean ur a good rogue! you will find one in a million good rogues! my advice to people.. dont play rogues unless ur really really street smart (not book smart coz books mean jack in a game)

    people usually pick rogues coz they think its "cool" to go invisible.. stupid i tells ya coz rogues arnt a easy class to be good with!

    i agree though... too many hunter/rogues!

    Yes, i play a Rogue as my main and they are a hard class to play. I see loads of, as much as i hate the word, 'n00b' Rogues which cant use their skills or combos properly.
    The 'n00b' Rogues dont use stealth properly: go stealth straight away, stealth up to the enemy and attack. They'd be better off just sprinting.

    Good Rogues, i have seen quite a lot of really annoying Undead rogues, have usually sorted out a brillaint combo to use whilst jumping around the enemy so that they can get in moves such as backstab which require you to be behind the enemy, whilst they cant hit you properly as you are moving too fast.

    to the op make friends, get in a good guild.  pugs, by definition, are BAD.  yegar and bel have good points.

    the shadow priests i know are 10 times the healer of 95% of the holy spec'd ones i've seen.




    could we please get correspondent writers and moderators, on the eve forum at mmorpg.com, who are well-versed on eve-online and aren't just passersby pushing buttons? pretty please?

  • Sephiroth9Sephiroth9 Member Posts: 127
    well if you don't like being a healer or tank, then don't play those classes. that is what choices are for

    With out a mage don't expect to kill Baron in Strat. Iusually let the mages go and AoE the mobs, while I pick out the elites sunder a few times and move to the next elite. If you ever expect to do a 45 minute run in strat, usually it's just chain pulling over and over but... something tells me. there's more to it then that..

    Professor Hubert Farnsworth - That question is less stupid but, you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
