The one thing thats kept me playing my sorcerer and BHs (merc and now a Ptech ) is they seem fairly straightforward to play to me. My sorcerer was my first class and is madness which is easy for me coming from a WoW shadowpriest and also an affliction lock. I also had an ele shaman so going lightning everything still feels somewhat familiar. Even the BH was pretty easy to pick up and the rotations were simple and straightforward just had to keep my heat down.
But I have tried with all my might to play a Marauder or a Jugg and their Republic twins so I could be a cool kid with a glow bat and none of them ever made it past level 30. I just feel like im having an epileptic fit as I stroke out on my keyboard. Not to mention I looked at my spellbook and theres 4754759 abilities that all seem to do the same thing yet when I watch vidoes of those classes people have them all keybound using letters I didnt even know existed on a keyboard. Then I look at the spells I use while doing dailies with my Sorcerer and theres 4 maybe add in 2-3 more for interrupts/CC on Elites but mainly I can do anything using only four keys.
TLDR: Do I need all those abilities as a Guardian or Shadow? Thinking about rerolling to Republic side and trying one of those out. Can I get by with just 3-4 while I level? What should a normal leveling rotation look like for Guardians or Shadow?
