Who would you start out with?

Alright, I'm probably going to be buying WoW sometime soon, maybe this weekend. I was just wondering which race and class you guys would suggest a newbie start out with? I've been thinking about starting with a holy priest...Just because I've heard they are pretty rare to find and get in your party and I like helping people in battle and keeping them alive. I like to be 'needed' in a party lol...

Anyways, what would you guys suggest to start out with?

Good choice, there a lot of option, you should consider trying all the characters and see which you perfer.

Mainly there 4 Classes(DPS, Healing, Hybrid, and Tank).

For beginners, I'll say start as a Hunter/Warlock(has pets) to solo better and get a feel of things.

Cool, yeah I might try a hunter out first just to get comfortable with the game, then make a priest.

When i first started the game, i was a Warrior. They are the easiest class to play if it's your first character. But it took me 14 levels to realise that i hate being a Warrior.

My favourites are the Hybrids (Druids/Shamans/Paladins), and out of the Hybrids, Shamans are the way to go, with healing totems/spells and a ton of instant casts (Along with an abundance of totems) you can't go wrong.

Be a Priest if you want, just do some homework and read up on priests so you won't have to respec three times instead of one.

Well I actually started with a Mage and I'm liking it so far. I might not make a priest after all cause I'm loving my mage.

I wouldn't suggest becoming a Night Elf, you'll be called a 12 year old left and right(for some reason people think all Night Elves are 12 year olds). If you want an alliance hunter then become a dwarf, if you want a horde hunter then choose whatever .

thats because all NEs actually ARE 12 year olds trying to be like legos from lord of the rings.

They are very hard to play past lvl 20 because it is VERY obvious that not many people know how to tank.

Go with anything that makes you happy, they are all balanced.


I resent that NE remark
