The best 1v1 classes (Personal player skill)

[warjinn]

After playing for years I came to the only give a Fuck about how well a class can do 1v1, I could give a hell about group pvp or how well they do in arena, after understanding this games pvp I feel true and the ONLY way to show player Self skill is 1v1, now Im not saying arena takes no skill but Its a different type of skill, its more Coord. skill not personal player skill.
Ok on that note, I have all 10 classes 8 of them lvl 80 and I tryed all spec combos and all classes maxed geared on Test Servers and I came to understand that the BEST 1v1 classes are Unholy Dks, Feral Druids,Holy Pallies and Prot Warriors that are speced into the fury tree for Blood craze.

Thoughts?

i'd say ret pally? they can do lots of shitz

[warjinn]

Frost mages are great but I have found 1v1 I win vs them as a prot warrior and a unholy dk with 80% health and have a close battle as a holy pallyand druid but still win, now Aff locks can be a pain but the reason i didnt post Locks is because of rogues, this post was to share my thoughts on what i feel the best 1v1 classes/specs are as I have all 10 classes and from my 5 years of nothing but pvp, and over 500k honor kills on all my toon combined, I just want to hear eveyones thoughts on the matter

Ret pallies are great but I have found no matter how well i play frost mages win, but as holy I can win vs every class even tho some will take hours to win, as holy u will win if played right

Armories are great but I have found....

1v1 a Prot Pally would beat a Ret Pally any day.

I would agree with your choices I've played all of those except prot warrior. My mage is only 75, but it seems like it could be a likely candidate as well... as many other people have mentioned. but it's really hard to name a #1, as skill is never equal. Even putting the "Best" against the "Best" the "best prot warrior" might really not have the same amount of skill as the "Best" feral druid, or whatever.

ret pallys cant do shit against any good kiter or priest/prot warrior. Disc priests are very hard to kill. manaburn us. we can only do autoswings. Divine plea disspelled. mass disspell bubble, GG

Guild search Five Deadly Venoms on US Scilla all my toons are on there - my Horde shammy, the names start with War or Jin anyways u will see I play fir fun but add up my killes on those toons and u will see I been on the battle field for a long time, anyway a feral druid is a beast in the right hands but to play one right takes a real pro and I feel I do not do my druid justice because out of all my toon I suck on my druid, mastering shapshifting is hard for me but the ones that do can and will own anyone IMO

Ret Paladin is probably the last class I would chose for 1v1 at highend equipment level.

You are bad if u lose to a disc priest. Dont judge shields. If he manaburns Seal of Wisdom. Abuse instant FoL's. Win eventually.

If you want to prove Personal player skills, roll a warlock and fight(win?) against warriors and rogues!

I hope you mean 1v1 against the class that is hardest to kill from your class' point of view otherwise its not really any skill either.

This. 1v1 has nothing to do with skill most of the time.

If you're in a 1v1 situation against your own class, or with the class which is hardest for you to beat, THEN you can call it skill, but even then it has nothing to do with skill in some situations. Take Hunters for example, Hunter vs Hunter is all about who has the best gear and who will have the most/highest lucky crits, nothing else.

Ummmmm Yeah you are talking about 1v1 in a game of rock paper scissors (mushroom).

Classes switch around per contecnt patch and per expansion as to who is the best 1v1 class, but really when you talk about 1v1 you are always talking about lack of balance.

You want 1v1 play a game where there are no classes only skill sets to train up, and thats were good 1v1 pvp comes in (UO, DAoC, etc)
