Raid (de)buffs: Class ranking

[Guran]

I've made some changes to the list posted by the blue to show exactly which buff in each category is easier to apply and thus a better choice. I kicked out the buffs where there was only 1 of, such as BoKings or Hunter's Mark and I added Regeneration at the end. I also took the liberty of assuming that all buffs will, when fully talented, provide the same buff. The only exception being Fel Intelligence atm.

Ability ranking:
[Bu] = Buff, can be applied pre-combat
[Au] = Aura, does not require any work except staying alive
[Pa] = Passive effect added on top of your regular DPS cycle
[Ab] = Ability, requires you to use an ability for the buff rather then for it's other effects
[Pr] = Proc related, mostly crit. Not guaranteed to be up 100% of the time you're DPSing.
Equal types of applications are ordered by general availability such as talent points, pre-req needed, uptime,...

Unique buffs left:
Mark/Gift of the Wild, Blessings of Kings and Wisdom, Power Word Fortitude, Imp. LotP, Hunter's Mark some totems and DK auras.

My conclusion:
Death Knights get some nice utility, mostly at the cost of Enhancement Shamans.
Druids are getting the best utility, followed by Paladins, DPS-only classes are mostly getting shafted.
Time to re-consider which char I want to get my first lvl 80 Achievement with

"hunter nature resist aura"

Nature resist totem. Not exclusive.

[Nibblez]

"hunter nature resist aura"

Nature resist totem. Not exclusive.

You sure about that? because the pally fire resist aura and fire resist totem are exclusive.
