haven't been following development closely. Is Spriest in a good spot for Shadowlands?

Have mage,rogue,DH,paladin on deck but if I did end up playing SL I'm trying to get fresh.
spriest is S-tier, or A-tier. One of those. Pretty good - but keep in mind they always do a balance patch around the first raid.

Part of why Shadow priest is destroying so hard right now is that its "borrowed power" stuff for shadow lands all sucks, so its baseline is tuned high atm.

I love people on the retail forums, complaining that they don't want slow lvling in one thread, and complaining that they can't have more than 50 chars in another. What does it say about someone with 50 max lvl chars. Some folks need a break, and they don't even realize it.

The first rule of official forums is to not read official forums.

If at some point in your life you find yourself reading WoW official forums you need to be aware about the color code:

- Blue is posts from people that are with Blizzard, they're somewhat interesting but you can read them from elsewhere, like Bluetracker.
- Green is posts from people that would love to be with Blizzard, you should avoid them because neither Blizzard or players trust them.
- White posts from people that play WoW, also people that don't play WoW: refer to green.

You know they have no confidence in the new expansion when they announce a new 6 month subscription bonus right before the launch.

Those wings look retarded. You would think they would try to make something that looks anywhere on the same level of other mmos that have back piece fashion.

Fucking lol, they're selling that ugly-ass transmog for $20? Absurd.

Buffs lasting through spec change, and Starfall not breaking stealth makes pvp people die without ever seeing who is attacking them. lol

I just don't understand how they did the level squish. I had a 60 that was lvl locked cuz i wanted to do all the classic dungeons at that lvl and score the sweet purps from those dungeons. He is now lvl 25. But, the classic dungeons are now lvl 30 if i go in with a lvl 50 (molten core), your mount to fly is lvl 30, a talent that was lvl 60 is now lvl 30, so you lose it. It's just fucking broken, and now I have a lvl 25 with some sweet weapons from the old classic dungeons that is just useless in the classic dungeons now. Dual wielding Dragon's Call was so sweet.

Sounds similar to BFA launch. SPriest was all gassed up pre-patch until tier 1. Not sure what became of them once tier 1 full gear outs happened at max level. But I remember they were a chart topper due to overtuned base in prep for BFA.

What is the best spec for Death Knight? or isn't there one? Also, what is the most fun OP class to play atm? Monk is still fun.

Hard to tell who will be OP as current DPS standings mean fuckall for level 60 balance and everyone will have different opinions on what specs are most fun to play. Although, most can agree that Windwalker and Feral will, most likely, be shat upon for another whole xpac.

The best leveling spec for DK is usually Blood, as long as you can routinely pull 6+ mobs at a time. Mount up, round up, plop DnD, kill, rinse, repeat. Low levels may be able to do this w/o blood and if that is the case, it doesn't really matter what spec you level as. Frost is top because the Breath of Sindragosa talent, high level gear, and the length of fights being more than 3 seconds.

Arcane is the top mage dps spec atm. It's been a longtime since that has been the case. That is only till Shadowlands, and then it'll flip to Frost unless they nerf it down some.

Just goes to show how messed up everyones "DPS Rankings" are, or out of date per patch. This was done on the 16th, so maybe his is the most up to date? But hell, Frost DK was like 6 or 7th down in DPS back on the 10th when I looked it up.
