Well it feels amazing when I crit their healer back in the next match and basically down their healer in the time of them getting freeze trapped, they trinket and I scatter shot them. (On a side note, due to all these WoW discussions I looked up some stuff, and I saw there is no dead zone for Hunters now, haha can't imagine how much easier it is for Hunters to PvP in arena now) | ||

Its only behind DK and Paladin, which are pretty easy to call overpowered, given their ubiquitous dominance across 2s, 3s, and 5s. | ||

I imagine there quite possibly be alot more now. Most of those Warriors and Warlocks were paired with Druids rofl. And I'm pretty sure there still aren't that many Hunters in 2s, because DK/Pala is dominating just as hard as Druid/Warrior, Druid/Warlock, and Druid/Rogue did in TBC. They get used a lot in 3s and 5s though I think. | ||

 edit: and you are right about being underplayed in Arenas, I remember a statistic when I played Hunters were most played class in the game at 17% out of all the classes, and is the least played class in arena at 7-9% I think. | ||

In no way am I insinuating WoW takes more skill than SC. But what I am saying is that the PvP scene is a combination of teamwork and skill. PvP and Raiding is what keeps WoW going. | ||

There are global guild rankings, and for classes like tanks at least, there is a rough "if you are in the top 200 guild worldwide, you are probably good enough tank for any other guild below that rank", since if you can't tank, then your guild's not going to get anywhere, and thus you would have been replaced by then. For dps and such there are no such rankings, mostly because if you are half competent and your gear is good, your dps is probably as good as the dps in the best guilds. The dps rotations are painfully simple. | ||

The dps rotations are painfully simple. I think healers can be ranked as well because they're hugely about mana efficiency. I've seen retards with T7.5 gear and ilvl 213 gear overhealing to no end and then there's the guy who you never actually see casting a healing spell but somehow keeping you up. ;p BTW, how are tanks ranked anyway? If you have a brain you can hold threat as well as the next guy as long as you have equivalent gear. | ||

If you have a brain you can hold threat as well as the next guy as long as you have equivalent gear. Tanks don't just sit there holding aggro. Take for instance back in vanilla WoW, there was a boss in BWL with 52 adds or something like that =) Most of the time tanks have to pick stuff that is spawning, and run around depending on the mechanics of the boss, which though is simple enough, is apparently impossible for most tanks. Pretty much any tank can hold aggro in Wotlk (wasn't quite the case pre-Wrath, aggro holding could be a bitch; look at warlocks in bc >.<). | ||

There was very little theory and crap involved in it, the 3 of us had played our characters for a long time, and just did stuff. You get a feel for what you should do in every scenario to get the best out of the situation, and how to deal with stuff..you can say its a lot of theory involved, but its more like acting on instinct. | ||

And how could I be ignorant having played all of these games at a high level (assuming D on SC is still high level )I'm just speaking from personal experience. If you need to rationalize the time you spend play WoW by lashing out at me by all means. | ||

However, I agree that it is getting VERY old. It seems like some people really want to feel superior for their preferred choice over other fans. | ||
