Taking a look at the forums after quitting

Post by Voodoochile » Wed Mar 12, 2025 8:22 am

Man, the Shaman forum really just up and died after CC2, huh? Without having to scroll, some of the most recent posts have been from 3 months ago. I'm really curious how class population is looking rn.
This man... was a lover of his server.
In Regards to 1.17.2

ele is still very potent in pvp, and simple to play /mediocre in pve. Its largely been ignored by devs, that oversight has been beneficial in pvp and detrimental in pve

Considering the sheer quantity of paladins and warriors joining bgs the strongest class on horde side should be wlock and spriest.

Elmhoof - 60 Boomkin
Tacheka - 41 Melee hunter (Planned secondary main)
Anbone - 36 Shadow Priest (Idk what I'm doing with him)

9 stacking shield is probably the worst change in my opinion.
Lighting strike is no price either.
The entire feel of the original class is gone, replace the talents with tbc next time you do class changes.

That way you will not break your own promises.
