Outside of lore, levelling is just a chore you have to do to start playing the real game. You could make the same argument for reps, dungeons, world quests, normal and heroic raids. I think there's nothing particularly bad about leveling and if you trivialize all of this stuff you won't have much of a game left. | ||

I also play on a pvp server, so the probability of some asshole trying to kill you when you have like half health or less is even higher. There are also other quality of life bonuses, like not ever getting dazed and dismounting when skipping through areas. As for priests, I kind of have a feeling that holy leveling with holy nova spam might actually be faster than shadow priest leveling. That was just a passing observation while off-spec healing and dps'ing in dungeons a while ago. | ||

I quit at the end of WotLK, played a little MoP and didn't like it all that much. Legion gets a lot of things right. If you've got the itch, I'd recommend giving it a shot. | ||

Might be closer now with Ret buffs, but even then I think prot is still faster. Edit: to make it clear, Prot Paladin has really good aoe and are basically unkillable in the world. Even all the rares I encountered were easily soloable. | ||

And no, there aren't that many DPS specs that can afford to pull a lot of mobs and then aoe them down. Ranged specs probably can do it easily, but melee specs in general can really suffer from this. I haven't played monks or feral, so I can't comment on those, but rogues can only pull 1 or 2 mobs at a time and more requires busting out cooldowns. Both warrior specs are pretty bad at surviving aoe pulls, with fury you flat out die because you do not have the sustain to live through it nor the damage to kill everything super fast. Arms is a bit better because you can pop die by the blade, artifact trait and bladestorm to kill 10+ mobs and/or finish off the rest with executes and victory rush. Retri sucks on aoe pulls until you get the artifact trait for healing storm. Frost and Unholy DK both have the tools to handle probably one big aoe pack but probably couldn't sustain it as well. Frost is probably the best as Remorseless Winter has a short cooldown and you can pair it with Pillars of Frost for a aoe stun. So overall I think leveling in a tank spec is probably faster just by virtue of being able to pull so many mobs and survive them, at least relative to the melee specs. | ||

Arms AoE kind of stinks until you get close to 20 points in your artifact anyways for all the whirlwind bonuses. I was definitely struggling to do more AOE damage in Arms than Prot until I hit about that many traits. I also play on a pvp server, so the probability of some asshole trying to kill you when you have like half health or less is even higher.

That was just a passing observation while off-spec healing and dps'ing in dungeons a while ago. I also play on a pvp server. I played arms while levelling, switched from prot because it was just too darn slow. I didn't play fury because i just didnd't want to, but having played it, i am fairly certain that it would had been better than prot too. I don't know what problem exactly you have with arms when you are one shotting mobs while leveling, healing for a 30% every few gcd. Protection AoE, even talented on +haste etc is pretty rubbish. Not to speak that quests rewards a lot of small cd's, and arms have bladestorm + aoe sunder + crit. Most of the time i would just complete quests that way, and finish off with the superior single target the few mobs needed afterwards. The only thing that protection has, is that it's really comfy to play.

Skittish can be a painful modifier, or a very easy one to deal with. | ||

Neither reps, dungeons, heroic raids are needed to start playing the game You can't do many of the core activities that people consider to be "playing the game" in an i790 character, gearing to a basic level (lets say 840-875 depending on how you intend to play at level cap) is a requirement to start "playing the game" Sometimes mobs are taunt immune it seems indeed. Its a pretty raren behavior but not unheard of before this either. Not taunt immune but just ignoring that they have a taunt on them and hitting whoever | ||

1. you overaggroed, tank taunts, you hit a big combo and overaggro again in spite of the 200% increased threat generation that taunt gives. 2. you overaggro, tank taunts, directly after taunt skittish procs, rendering the taunt ineffective. Might be full of BS, but it's possible | ||
