    If I actually play Vanilla again, then yes, will roll a mage.

    One of the best classes in Vanilla

    I'm in between a Mage, Paladin or Hunter.

    Probably mage, yeah. Strongly considering warrior or druid too, though.

    Yes I will, right now mages hit like a wet noodle by comparison, still no fire buffs. I tanked as a warrior in vanilla, so it will be somewhat new dpsing as a mage, it will be nice to actually be considered good dps again.

    Yes, I love the ability to AoE farm some dungeons, portals, solid hits in BG, you always needed in the party and generally one of the best classes overall in Classic. I feel like it would be a good starting character to make money for other toons.

    Well, 821 days /played on live. Ironically never played Mage in Vanilla, she only became my main at the tail end of TBC, so yea, i'll be a Mage, though no Blood Elves.., never been too keen on Undead or Troll.. may actually go Human Female.

    Pressing nothing but Frostbolt for five minutes isnt exactly engaging gameplay.

    All classes in Vanilla had "big brain" rotations like that in raids.

    First time I ever tried WoW out I made a Forsaken Warlock, so that's what I intend to play in Classic.

    Probably Human Mage, a copy paste of my main when I started back in '06. They are sought after in PvE, can solo farm well, they are very good in PvP too. Great QoL with conjure food/water. All in all, a very good class that excels both in raids and solo/bg PvP (as frost at least).

    It's not. Vanilla classes were ALL hideously boring compared to today.
