Cataclysm: Ultimate PvP class?

[Cheat'R]

i think that ret pals are going to be nerfed. i'd say that rogues are going op again.

I don't know about that.

Us pallies are getting Holy Shock on all specs, Sacred Shield lasts for 30 minutes, so we won't have to keep casting, and look at this:

#
Guardian of Ancient Kings (85)
Summons a guardian that works differently depending on the paladin's spec (it also looks like the winged angel-like creature from WarCraft III's Resurrection spell). 30 seconds duration. 3 minutes cooldown.

*
Holy: Heals nearby wounded targets, preferring the ones with lowest health.
*
Protection: Absorbs a portion of the incoming damage.
*
Retribution: Attacks nearby enemies (like Summon Gargoyle).

That's nice

Blessing of Might and Blessing of Wisdom are being combined, therefore giving us ret pallies MP5 as a buff also, which will always be helpful in arena.

Our Crusader Strike is also said to become more powerful like the Death Knights Blood Strike becomes Heart Strike.


Basically, the paladins only nerf so far is that Beacon of Light is designed so that it only doubles Flash of Light, rather than all healing. Of course, that is for Holy specced pallies, though.

resto shamans will have +10%stam/ reduced time on slowing effects and then atleast passive 10% increased movement speed(possibly 15%) from the enh tree, i like.

There's no ultimate pvp class.

end of story

[krimmjow]

Id say pally is the closest thing you'll get -.-
due to their armor, healing abilities and if prot their ability to silence with glyph of course

[Grif]

Hunters

[Calibri]

Its too early to say anything. They're making changes everyday

[YungaShanker]

Tbh, I'd say that Warriors would be the 'ultimate' PvP class, I mean, if you move you get a sacking debuff on rend? OP much? also considering that we get to use Slam when we move as well, GG.

I'm liking the Inner Will spell for priests =P Will make Disc Kiting OP and Funny hopefully lol but I doubt they will make it as Op as I'm hoping lol..

[tykoll]

Cataclysm is still in BETA phase so its still hard to predict which classes will stand out during the expansion.

[hehegirl]

shamans still got no survivability spell/cd, right now shamans are far away of "ultimate"

[grimmeged]

to answer title; Warlock as always

[Mayx]

Hunters mana will be replaced by focus.

And the Aimed Shot Will again become a cast.
Due to the simple reason that its way to easy to kite as a Hunter atm.
And I think it really will increase their burst, and status in Arena or BG's

[Celton]

Shamans! never go wrong.

Human hunters will have perception, as well as track hidden. Pop a catseye elixir, and maybe throw on some detect hidden goggles from eng, and you're seeing rogues from 1/2 way across wsg. Even further if they dont have any points in MoD.

I'm not going to say hunters will be the best class for PvP, but human hunters in general are going to be stupid with their abundance of stealth detection.

[noes]

Warlocks. I have seen destro pvp, its retarded. Shadowbreath is way to op, it can control the whole fight
