What's the current FOTM class/spec?

[Velky]

Just got laid off for the season, thinking of diving back into WoW for the winter. What can I faceroll with for the next 4 months?

[Malgru]

warrior, feral, mage, any healer but disc/monk

[Valedus]

Warrior, Mage, Resto shammy are all strong right now, but play whatever you want to really. Everything is pretty up in the air and with 5.2 probably coming to the PTR in the next month or so, going to see a lot of class changes.

[Gangresnake]

Feral then warrior or hunter
Nerfbat is probably coming soon though

[Kals]

Depends what you're doing for PvP.
-RBGS? Frost DK. Everyone seems to ALWAYS be looking for a FDK target caller. 24/7.
-Arena? Any healer, mage, warrior, spriest is great atm as well.
-Random BGs? Anything really. Personally I think warrior would be a good choice because of the many defensives available if you don't have a healer readily available.

Feral isn't really that FOTM, you rarely see them in arena and they're pretty well not wanted in RBGs. The damage is great and so is the class, it's just not widely wanted for much yet.

Everyone wants a feral now.

same as always, healers and warrior.

[Kals]

Everyone wants a feral now.

That's why I've been searching for ~2 hours a day for 2 weeks for a team right?

[Deng]

Everyone wants a feral now.

Where can I sign in?

FDK's are FOTM in RBG's. Why was I not informed? Lead RBG's as FDK till they buffed blood and it all got silly, some of my best times in wow. Yayness \o/

And yeah, feral in RBG's is about the best flag carrier+holder. Warr used to be preferred for holding but seems to be feral all the way now.

I'm surprised people still think Mages are FOTM. Frost Bomb glyph functionality has been removed (so it now does 0 damage due to dispel), plethora of nerfs, Fire is no longer top in PvE on any fights but cleave. We definitely don't stand out anymore.

Agreed. I see way more warlocks, shadow priests, and mages than ferals in Arena especially.

Yet 2/3 of your specs are in the top 5 dps for Pve, you cry about fire nerfs and they get a buff, where's this buff to classes that need it? As for Pvp, frost will forever remain strong no matter what you think.

Arcane is QUITE good in PvE atm. We definitely still stand out with skilled and geared users

That would be arms warriors, frost mages, feral druid and resto shamans.

[Notamonk]

Stick to mage if you want to avoid getting hit to hard by the nerf bat.


Currently allot of the classes that are based upon burst are going well and could be considered "fotm".


Hunter, Warrior, Mage, Lock, Spriest all seem to be at the top of the list as far as "fotm/op" classes are atm.


Best of luck finding another job.

[SilvaAger]

Warrior, mage, hpally. Not any healer like someone earlier said, but atm monk and disc heals are weak. Monk is going to be the most fun class though imo.

every class is represented on that list with at least one spec... but where are warlocks, rogues and monks???
Oh wait, that's right....

It's rather sad to see how several speces have more representation than a whole other class.
