Anyway, if 1on1 balance would be perfect in this game, THEN I personally would play the class I enjoy the most. But because that is not the case, I usually have to make some sort of compromise between what I enjoy, what's FOTM and what historically has mostly been good in PvP.
- WoW does not offer good PvP balance, therefor some people cannot enjoy the class they normally would enjoy.
- Fine, then lets just choose the class that is the most powerful, if the game is not balanced, there must be one, right? Nope, even the most powerful class has counters.
- Fine, then lets just choose the class that has the least counters and that is considered a counter for most others? Nope, it's situational... whether it is a duel, world PvP, 2v2, 3v3 etc.
- Fine, then lets just choose the one class that, on average, performs the best? Yeh right, but nope. This may work, but it's only valid for a single patch, maybe for even less time, due to hot fixes and gear scaling, and the next patch may and probably will change everything anyway.
SO WHAT THE FUKK? What the hell is going on in this game?!
Answer: regarding class balance there's only one thing that's certain, and that's permanent gross balance instability without ever crossing the point where things would be balanced.
I would be happy with an unbalanced but stable situation, but we can't have that here. It's never balanced and never stable, so if you're some perfectionist or extreme min / maxer you'll never be happy with this game, unless you have the time and skill to play all 11 classes at max gear level.
