World of Warcraft Classic: Season of Discovery Tier List
Let’s make a quick tier list for World of Warcraft Classic’s Season of Discovery. This tier list is based on my opinion, and um, yeah, so you can either disagree or agree; it doesn’t matter. Um, so yeah, uh, let’s start. Let’s take, I’ll start with, uh, warlock. Warlocks are going to be bunked. Is like, really, they, they, they so strong. They seem to really have, um, B down what warlocks are good at and what they’re bad at. So, first and foremost, we have destruction slots.
First, we have this, I suppose, just should say we have the Lake of Fire, which is chest, uh, rain of fire Lees, which is an AE ability. Um, uh, you effect, this is really strong, and I also think they’re really good. It makes drain life also better and soul sa, and this is RA, l king talent, and then we have here, which is demonology, really strong. I think, um, for procing that, um, demonic Packa, which comes for the legs.
The Dominance of Warlocks in WoW Classic’s Season of Discovery
Warlocks also going to be able to tank, and in AOE scenarios, they’re going to have Shadow W. I think wall are going to be S TI, and the reason why I think that is because they are going to be very strong. They, they good class of stack, and you have to think that this is the first phase, so basically, you will, you, they have a lot of good abilities. They have Shadow Ball, they have corruption, they have cursive agonies combined with having either, um, haunt or chaos bolt, um, they’re just going to be nuts.
And then they have some AOE capabilities too, with the shadow b w, um, I think wall are one of those who also have ton of utility. So, in because they can also tank now, I think wall are going to be pretty much everything, pretty much the entire expansion, um, but especially here at the 25 M level.
Warlock Analysis: Destruction and Demonology
Arcane. I’m just going to go in this, so it’s not going to make sense in that way, no, let’s just do warlock first. So just demonology, demonology going to be ultimate support again. It’s got the same thing, and I think, basically, you, we can set this here as well. So instead of each class, I think I’m going to go each, each spec. I think I’m going to go each class. I think it makes much more sense. So, warlock is tier boom.
Next up, we have the Mage. The Mage also gets a healing spec, and I think at 25, Mages are actually going to give quite a lot of damage. They get the fingers of frost, which is really cool; it’s really good, um, and they also get a living bomb, a DOT, and to get the icelands, which without fingers, ice fingers, fingers of frost without Iceland, would not really matter that much, but yeah, they’re going to be quite good, um, again. They have the main abilities Frost ball, fireable, and now our came blast.
I think Mages are, they, I don’t think they are going to be, they’re not able to do time W, right, no, no. I think mes, I think I’m going to probably going to rank this like, they’re probably going to be strong, but they’re not going to be be that overpowered, so we’re just going to go and do this, the fire, sorry, I’m not going to take this off, I don’t know what is this what.
Warrior Class Overview
I don’t know Warrior, this class I’m probably going to main. Warrior, so this class, Warrior, is in like just broken downright broken in classic, and they just op the most broken class. They’re the best tank, they’re the best uh DPS and PVE, they’re also pretty much the best DPS class in PvP, or at least uh a high now.
Warriors, they’re going to be in a very weird spot in the first phase, 25 in the first phase, LEL 25. They are probably not going to be that strong; they lack bloodthirst, they lack mortal strike, and shield SL, so they’re basically going to be like a weird thing because we have so basically you’re going to be Fury, you’re going to be charging in, and you can use your um raging blow, and then you can use your heroic strike, and then just Auto attack, that’s basically it.
Analyzing Warrior Class Strategies and Roles in PvE and PvP Gameplay
Um, you can use, of course, your quick strike, but again, why would you do that? It’s a two-handed one, so you’re going to be Auto attacking and ring blow in between again, you only have lot rage to really trigger it, you can’t really reach in Rage, and you can really reach um perero rage especially not en rage in um in PVE.
Arms going to be the same situation, they’re got probably going to be quite okay, they at least will get like um this 20% attack speed for two, and also going to have to Quick strike, and they’re also going to have um warbringer and all that, so they’re going to be quite, I think they’re going to be stronger PVP than PVE, but still, I think I think Warrior will be like down here with the exception of tank because it’s a tank.
I think tanks are interesting, uh tanks, they get this room which is called Fury thunder thunder, which is pretty decent, so you’re going to be uh the bosses, the mops are going to attack slower, really good for the overall damage, but I think the boss are so fast killed that it’s pretty dumb, um yeah.
Rogue Class Analysis
Next up, we have the rogue. Rogue, I don’t know too much about actually, um, they can get some PVP, they can do tank, but they need to have up their uh, they need to have their um blade uh blade dance up, and they also need not just a second this blade dance is active, so they need to have this up constantly. That this is kind of their stance, that I think means that Rogues cannot do anything else than doing that blade dance, and so Tang Rogues are probably going to be quite uh not the best, I don’t think so, um.
And then we have the others, which is like mutilate. I mean, it’s just standard, I think Rogues are again gear dependent just like Warrior, just a tiny bit less, so I’m still going to give it like maybe a beat here, but I think Mage is going to be stronger, so maybe we can put VOR down to D, and we put ropes here, um what is up, yep I think this is going to be it.
Analysis of Hunter Class at Level 25
I can’t remember all of these, so hunds are going to be fantastic. I think they’re already really strong at this level, atel 25. They really are strong, they’re going to like range, they don’t need that much hit, which you have to think about Rogues and warriors do, um, but hunter doesn’t really need the same. They’re not penalized for uh, for being even though it’s physical, it’s range physical. So, they only need like seven or eight percent hit chance, they’re going to be really strong. And again, I think hunds are going to be up here among the top, um, just do like this, and yeah, there’s no really dig, just up here, um.
And the reason that is that they get their AOE, they C shot, their explosive shot, they have pretty much everything they need, um, and I mean, they just this just seems incredible. They even have a lot of Versatility, something the warriors on the other hand don’t, they don’t really bring anything, um, not even the protection. That’s why they’re so low, maybe I should actually go down and put it down here, and the only reason it’s B is again still because it’s a tank.
Shadow Priest Class Evaluation
Next up, we have priest. Now priest is, I love Shadow priest, is one of my favorite classes uh, and Fantasies. But the problem is priests don’t get access to Shadow form, at least not the DPS variety. So priests are going to be very, very cringe to play. They have the Mind here AOE, and they have the shadow of death, they don’t have access to mana talents either, so they’re going to struggle a lot. I think so. Shadow priest, you’re going to go in here to B, you’re still going to be strong.
And again, healer wise, the Healer and it’s classic bro, it’s like you probably always going to be STS A Healer right, it doesn’t really matter, you just heal, maybe disc is going to be a little bit more interesting than then holy, um, because prevent but then again maybe not. I’m going to put it the this and that’s only because it’s going to be like it’s a heal right, it can’t really be bad, it’s always s almost.
Shaman Class in PvP and PvE
Then we have Shaman. Shaman is really interesting, Shaman’s really nice, Shaman gets an overhaul for sure. And I’m just going to find here, okay, so let’s start very simple with elemental. Elemental is going to be gods among men in PvP at 25, they get La burst, they get overload, so you have a chance to proc lava burst the second time. You are going to destroy in PvP right now, to my knowledge, there’s no Talent reducing or gear reducing like resilience that reduce the Damage Done from taken from other plays or to other plays, so it’s going to be really strong.
And in PvP, uh, sorry in PvE, I think they have manner regenera totems like lower runes like this, so I think they’re going to be pretty well off.
Shaman Class Overview
I think they’re going to be S in enhancement. They’re going to be a, do you have a tool, uh, they don’t, but they don’t have wind Fury. I’m actually going to put it down here, maybe a no, because it has wind Fury, um. Then we have Resto again, a s, because s is just, it’s just def to is and is still, you know, crazy strong. H d d d, now this is both a tank and a DPS, but Drew is are going to be insane, they’re going to be the best tank, mark my words.
Druid Class Analysis
And the reason for that is because they bring, they have something, they have something here which the reason why DS in classic was, is because they didn’t have anything to reduce damage and they were not cred immune. But with this survival def fitst, they get like cred immune and also reduce all them taken, and while they in bare form, they take an additional 10% less, which means a total of 20% less damage in betterform, which is going to be huge for them.
Also, they get wild strikes, wild strikes is awesome, but um, as you can see, it’s in the same slot, so it’s still not really going to be the best in the game. I think Paladin might take it over. I think I said this, I actually thought Wilds were in legs, so I will actually change that and say DRS are going to be like a h a, because they’re going to be, as a tank, they’re going to be very sturdy and deal an incredible amount of damage with the mangle and also that Sunfire, because it seems like they can c cast it in that form again.
They’re going to take wild strikes as cat, and probably survive F Spar wild strike is still going to be good as cat. As cat, you’re going to be valuable, people want you because of that wild strike, um, and also think you’re going to be, oh okay damage, but you probably going to be spend most of the time on the Savage raw uh combo points just like um the uh the Rogue were.
Balance Druid (Boomkin) Specification
Next up we have, uh, we have uh, sorry, we have boom, okay this balance D, okay balance, that’s my ultimate favorite spec actually a little bit better than than Shadow. I was really thinking about running this, boomies, they just look fantastic, like okay, so they get star search, which is sick in it in enough of itself, however can see if it’s instant or it has a cast time, but still going to be insane.
Going to be like Moonfire, I don’t know if Sunfire, they have Sunfire talent, but will it be like they get an additional dot or will just transform the Moonfire, is that only in bear, cat, and bar and cat form? I don’t know, but let’s let’s just say they have Moonfire, Sunfire, star surch, and wrath, and Lun strike, they’re going to be like really strong, Luna strike, Luna fire.
Druid Class in PvP and PvE
I can’t remember, um, they’re going to be strong, uh, the only problem is their Mana, but they have the only ability in the game that reduces that Mana cost by 100%, which is awesome. So I think, um, I think DRS, both in PvP and PvE, are going to be CS here, especially balance. They, I couldn’t imagine, there’s nothing making it bad, perhaps a little lack of AOE, but again, that’s fine, given how strong we are otherwise.
Resto is Resto and still strong, um, it has two AE which is, and can cast even damage without penalty to Mana, so maybe this will actually be the best healer in the game at 25.
Paladin Tank and DPS Analysis
Next up and last is the Paladin. Paladin tank is just bonkers, is going to be S for sure. It’s going to be, it has incredible talent, and it’s also, I think, is heavily inspired by RRA L King, it seems, and they were just really strong then, and it’s really strong now. And you also have to remember, they still have a lot of Buffs and they have a lot of utility, just making it that much stronger.
And then they also have Avengers shield and they have a taunt now, and they have, um, either SE of Toach or Hor Lordun, or whatever you might want to do. That depends because you really, you have the block, you can also do the block here with the readout, which is just um, insane. They’re going to be the best due to the utility, and also I think they’re going to do the best damage, um.
Red pal, what can I say, you have Ste matum, you have Divine storm, you have, um, Crusader strike, Crusador strike, Divine stor at on top, maybe exist, and you’re pretty damn insane.
Predictions for Phase One Meta
Inspiration Exemplar, probably going to go to healer, but this is like Trematum on as an AA, ridiculous, which is also making the heal like s, especially, um, if you combine it with the beacon of light, it’s just that easy. I predict this is the first uh phase off phase one, uh, I predict this is going to be the meta. I predict you will also have warlock, you also want all the heals, of course, a warlock, you always want a boomkin, you also want an Elemental Gman, a red P.
Warlocks, you can pretty much stack infinitely depending on how many meals you have. You might want a cat, you might not want a cat. Enhancement still looks strong, you probably won’t see too many warriors, only our star hard fans will go Warrior, and they will probably suck, so um, but I’m pretty sure that once we reach endgame, we start to really really catch up in gear, and we’ll start to do massive damage again, because look at B here, just a second, I’m just going to find here, uh, they have bleed whenever they bleed, they get three rage, and that combined with the talent um de wounds, that’s you’ll be D.
