Reading the paladin posts on the beta board are hilarious. My friend just went broke respecing his Paladin. The seal + judegment combinations rock, and twisting the seals are very powerful. Paladins are complaining this is boring? When they've been mashing the same two combat keys for 10 months? Jesus, people whine about everything, and it's obvious hardly any of the people bitching have tested the changes. Blizzard really needs to refund Paladin players about 120g though. But anyway, the Paladin is insanely cool now. If I was going Alliance I would probably level an alt Paladin to 60 with my rogue. But the Alliance sadly sucks balls.

Damnit,are you sure hunters are really populous?Right after they were introduced I could see,but everyone deemed them crap and went back to their other classes.I picked hunter because it seemed interesting and not many people would be one.I hope it's just because all the new guys are trying it out because it's the only ranged weapon class.Also maybe it's because of talents and the few other changes.

Is that from a new instance? On the beta boards they're making it sound like it is. And a hard one at that. :lol
the new felhunter pet for warlocks owns, it's definitely the best group pet now IMO. paladins actually sound like they are fun to play now but require actual thinking, which is probably why most of the paladin testers in closed beta are bitching since a retarded monkey could play paladin at 100% effectiveness before. and a level 54 hunter guildmate on horde is doing huge dps now.
I really think, though, that healers and warriors are the most crucial but least appreciated classes in all MMOs and that's true with WOW as well. I never liked tanking much with a warrior because it was (I don't know how it is now) just mashing the taunt button whenever you had rage for it.
definitely sticking with my plan to make an orc warlock first in retail, then it's really either troll priest (if they make the berserker racial trait better for casters, like changing it so it's active whenever but makes you take more damage) or orc shaman, then orc hunter.
warlocks own for the most part, the only semi-lame thing is that the high level summoned demons (the doomguard and the infernal) are hostile when summoned and don't last long (with a huge cooldown too) so you pretty much have to use them with the enslave demon spell. they're pretty costly as a class for training as well, but now you can bypass some of the spells with these new grimoires (before it always required previous ranks, now you can just buy the highest rank), plus they kill fast enough that you can take some good money making tradeskills if you really want.

How popular are Druids? It seems like they aren't very popular and might be more wanted in parties. I usually like being a support character (buff/debuff/heal/melee).

Blizzard games in general are delayed for years at a time before they release. I'm not surprised that they're torturing us with a just out of reach open beta.Trasher said:

is there any way to get into these american betas when you dont live in america
I think Blizzard's death penalty is a little harsh tho... 100% durability loss on EVERYTHING in your inventory is a bit too much. Plus the 30 min. res sickness is insanse.
Maybe make it a few min. sickness and 50% durability loss on all items, equipped and in inventory... or 100% loss on just items equipped.
