Cataclysm Class Preview Compilation

[emni]

Guys,

What class would you recommend to play in Cataclysm (Horde side with new race)?
Which few so far favor (advantages, versatility, ease/simplicity) more towards PvP orientation?

Thanks!

No one can predict that yet. Just like with WotLK, many of these new spells might not even make it to live. And those that do make it might get reworked so much that they'll be nothing like what's been announced now. Add to that that we know nothing of the new talent trees or potential new talents since this is just a small preview of what's actually in store.

MUST want PALADIN LIBRAMS TO SHOW Next TO your RIght ARm1!!

I wantz mah previewz.

I guess palas get Bloodlust ....bring thy player not the class, you know

Mages got it. It's called time warp. Paladins dont want bloodlust, it would just be another "utility" that keeps us from the things we want (like our pony!). If anything we'd get a battle rez as that hasnt been given to any other class yet and its still druid specific.

I get the feeling that HYBRIDs are screwed with the mastery.

if you actually put all talent points in one tree its (maybe) OK, but if want to take up talents in other trees, you get no real benefit.

say, in Elemental tree you get spell damage, but if you put points in Enhance, you will get Melee damage and Melee haste??? I don't know if Elemental shaman will melee also in cata...

see mage or warlock for example, either way you will get Spell damage...

You only get ONE mastery, you get it from the tree in which you soent the most.

im pretty sure they said they were going to modify the amount of spell damage per talent point according to the dps they wanted the class to do, i.e. affl locks =1.5% per point ele shamans=2.0% per point. to counteract the problem with hybrid masteries.

the mastery i think he's referring to is the first and second on the list, which everyone who points any points into the tree gets, it's when you put the majority of the points into one tree that you get the third for that tree.

I'm not sure if anyone is going to be able to help me out with this or not buuutt.... Does anyone know the type of font used on the class icons you click on to see the summary of each class? I've seen it before and I really like it but I have no idea what it's called... I would love to be able to use it as my in game font :P

Thanks!!

Also, Wooooohooo no more tree form!

you get the mastery benefits as you put more points in the particular tree.

anyway Sikkara answered some of my concern.

Honestly, I predict that the Paladin changes will nerf us ridiculously, and we'll be back to the way we were in Burning Crusade. Honestly, I look forward to it. Then maybe I won't get hated on for playing a Paladin.

We will be hated no matter what. Whether it is our poor DPS (think Vanilla & TBC), our actually decent DPS (think now), our two-button tanking, healing, etc. It's just cool to hate paladins, we're not getting out of "lolret" or anything. The hate is there to stay.

Check the blueposts, that screenshot is months old and the latest information tells us you only get things in one tree.
They added that because of this problem, it would be impossible to balance.
