"Today I will cause problems on purpose"

ItBurns posted:

Pretty much all of the new premium DLC specs are overpowered so that's a good place to start. A lot of the new mobs have CC, and using CC yourself is also useful in a lot of situations, so that is something to consider.

For revenant, you can't go wrong with Herald. Check metabattle.com for specific builds though.

Shiro with Sword/Axe, all Berserker gear. Hammer for ranged and Staff for utility.

I had mostly meant in general feel of all the classes against each other right now, but I will keep these in mind. Especially for Metabattle, because I was looking for somewhere I could nick decent specialization builds from.

I went for ranger because I played druid healer for years in wow and my hunter PvP battleground tactic was beastmaster with various spirit beasts - raining arrows on people who were clearly googling what the hell my pet was was a great source of joy in my life along with my BG warlock and I have no regrets.

Thanks for triggering my PTSD of camping those drat Spirit Beasts to tame them.

serious answer: the class balance for pve is better than it was when you left. all the top-damage builds for hard content come to around the same damage (except for burn warriors which are lol), condition-based builds are now viable and in some cases top-tier for a class, and you need cc and other poo poo for some of the content

Did you notice the level scaling? High level characters can participate and earn rewards anywhere, so there's no need for partners to be lowbies.

I did, but I figure most people have been there, done that so I thought I'd cast the alt net.

A lot of people have alts they've tomed up to 80, so even a lot of 80s need to work on map completion! (I have like 3)
