Anyone else main swap each expansion?

[Gourami]

I change every month

[Cosmic Janitor]

No, I changed mains 2 times in 15 years. The first time was because the class I wanted to play finally became available, the second time because over the years my RPG preferences became clear to me and I really liked the theme at the time.

During BfA i have main swapped almost every tier. The classes are just not enjoyable for me for any length of time. I get bored of each one very quickly, and unfortunately, only seem to enjoy one spec out of each class, if that. Even then i tire of them very quickly.

Previous expacs i would have one "main" that i played for progression, and a secondary character that i used for farm bosses etc. The main stayed the same, but the secondary changed quite frequently. Sometimes i enjoyed my secondary character more, but the main had the gear and was in a good place balance wise, and the secondary might be a bit weaker but something i really enjoyed.

Example being i mained Bear when they were very strong in heroic+ content, but prefered to play DK / Warrior.

Warlock from Vanilla - Wrath.
DK tank (unholy) during 3/4 of wrath, then back to warlock.
Warlock -> present and until something necromancer like replaces it. If that happens. Which won't.

[Uselessrouge]

vanilla : rogue
bc : rogue + heal pala
wotlk rogue + tank dk
after that only tanks + rogue as alt

[crakerjack]

Yea I typically swap every expansion and sometimes mid expansion as well. Playing only 1 character seems feasible if you barely play the game. If you put ample hours in each week and only play one character, I don't know how you don't get bored.

[DazManianDevil]

Vanilla: Hunter
TBC: Hunter

[Management]

I've always mained Enhancement Shaman up until BfA when I mostly play my Mage and Priest. I just got tired of the RNG aspect of enhancement. I still love the spec but I could do with the removal of the rng bullshit.

[Mazarym]

I've played since late cata (4.3 I think) and my first character was a worgen rogue. Come MoP I had two main characters, an Orc Monk and a Human Paladin that I've leveled side by side/mained since that time up to BfA.

I'm considering a change for 9.0, just have to see what they have in store.

[Zexaniro]

WOTLK: Mage
Cata: Mage/DK
Mists: Mage
WoD: Mage/Priest
Legion: Priest
BFA: Priest/Monk

[Mteq]

vanilla: priest
TBC: shaman
Wotlk: DK
Cata onward: warrior

and im finding it REALLY difficult to step away from my warrior. i contemplated switching with Legion and BfA and every time i ended right back where i started. somehow i feel very connected to it and feel bad to go to a new toon and not have those green reputation bars completely filled....because that's really what differes between e new and old toon every expension...how far the old reputation bars are filled...

[Doffen]

Yes.

Hunter in vanilla/TBC
Boomkin from 3.0 in TBC, through WotLK to Cata
Mage in Cata
Shaman/Hunter in MoP(barely)
Rogue first half of WoD, Mage last half.
Mage first 3 months in Legion, but then I leveled my hunter and fell in love with Marksman so much that I just changed main.
Then changed to Holy Paladin in ToS, and just at the end of Legion I played Hunter again.
Started as Hunter in BfA, though MM was screwed over, took a break(not voluntarily) then came back halfway in BoD, then changed main to Demon Hunter.

[Sughs]

TBC: Shaman
WotLK: Shaman and Warrior
CATA: Shaman and Warrior
MoP: Warrior
WoD: Shaman
Legion: Shaman
BfA: Shaman

[Arainie]

Vanilla: Druid (veeery casual)
Late BC-now: Priest (raided almost all the time)
Classic: Warrior

Nerh, would have gone priest in Classic too if we didn't already have one in the friends group. I don't really reroll

[Lionor]

Yes, I like to keep things fresh. Used to change almost every tier back when I had more time.

Vanilla: Warlock
TBC: Paladin/Warlock
Wrath: Priest
Cata: Priest/Druid
MOP: Warlock
WOD: Druid
Legion: Shaman
BfA: Paladin

[Ishimada]

TBC: Rogue
Wrath: Rogue to Shaman
Cata: Warlock
MOP: Monk to Hunter
WOD: Hunter
Legion: Shaman
BFA: Shaman

Classic: Hunter

Next expansion probably going to continue with Shaman, if the class and expansion looks good.

[Nihilux]

Vanilla: Shaman (0/30/21)
TBC: Shaman (elemental) & Paladin (Retribution. Payed equally, so both were mains.
WotLK: Death Knight (mainly 2H Frost, though I experimented a lot due to the freedom of the talent tree system), Paladin (Retribution) & Rogue (Assassination). This expansion had me switching between 3 characters. That's how good it was.
Cataclysm: Rogue (Assassination? Can't remember.) and Death Knight (2H Frost).
MoP: Rogue (No idea what I used, only played during the tail end of the expansion).
WoD: Mage (frost).
Legion: Demon Hunter (Havoc).
BFA: Mage (Frost) and Death Knight (Frost, even if's miserable). (Alliance and Horde, just for allied races, otherwise I'd have played one.)

[faithbane]

Vanilla: Shaman
TBC: Shaman
WOTLK: DK
Cataclysm: DK
MoP: DK
WoD: DK
Legion : DK
BFA: DK


Honestly.. there were times I wanted to swap away from DK but as a completionist and a collector, it is so hard to give up all the achievements, collectibles, legendaries, reps, grinds, quest chians, mogs etc.. that you have on your main toon that I am basically stuck with it forever..

[Harbour]

Vanilla - Paladin (Tank)
TBC - Warlock (SL/SL)
WotlK - Warlock (SL/SL) and Hunter (all specs)
Cata - didnt play much
MoP - didnt play much
WoD - Paladin (Retribution)
Legion - Paladin (Holy) and Hunter (BM)
BFA - Warlock (Affli) and Paladin (Holy)

The most enjoyable: TBC SL/SL Warlock, Legion Holy Paladin and BM Hunter.
