Subject: help with choosing a class and a race!?
I decided start playing WoW and i need help deciding what class and race to choose.By best race i will mean with the easiest starter zone for newbie players.


Will you be leveling through instances or mostly questing?
Questing manly but sometimes instance.

With a friend or alone? What's your friend going to be leveling?
I will level alone.

Are you leveling via PvE (questing, killing mobs) or through the new PvP way (battlegrounds)?
With PvE but i will still test the battlegrounds.

Will you be doing primarily raids/dungeons at level cap (PvE) or knocking the opposing faction in the balls over a flag (PvP)?
I havent decided yet , but probably PvP.


Will you be multiboxing or just playing a single character?
A single character.


Heals/tank/DPS? What's your style for DPS - melee or ranged?
I like Dps the most.


Hybrid or pure? Does it matter?
It doesn't matter.

Pet or temporary pet or none at all? Does it matter?
A pet or none at all. I won't use a temporary pet very often.


Will you be AoE leveling (usually with a partner)?
I don't think so.

and finally i will get battle chest with only BC and Original. Tnx in advance

PvE, hunter.

PvP, level the hunter to 55, then roll a DK.

It doesn't matter. My only word of advice is to roll a tank or healer so you get fast Dungeon Finder queue times.

If you know you want to be DPS, it doesn't matter what class you choose.

- Choose based on playstyle or look or whatever.
- Should you ever decide to raid, ranged is easier than melee.
- Some DPS can also heal/tank. That may be something that interests you down the road.

OP won't be able to do DK since he's only getting vanilla and BC...unless they changed that now.

just preference if you want ranged or caster or melee, if you want stealth, what race ability you like, etc.
every class can dps comparatively

as everyone has stated it doesn't really matter what you choose, nothing is really the best. just pick whatever you think looks cool or might be fun to play and if you don't like it fairly quick pick somethng else.

Atleast go Horde.

Alliance is for the rainbow brigade.

Race is completely irrelevant (i.e. there is no best race). Just pick the one you want to look at for the next several hundred hours, that is the only real difference.


Class: they are all incredibly easy and all have a dps spec so again, completely irrelevant. Play what you like.

You can play every class to level 60 in no time at all now and then you'll have one of every class to choose from whenever your current one gets gutted and nerfed into oblivion by the B-team.

I've tried both realms on several servers. I've found Horde to be more mature and intelligent as a whole.

Do you want to have a permanent pet? Is a temporary one okay with you? Or does it not matter if you have a pet?
Doesnt matter.

Are you partial to cloth wearers or do you want a little more bulk in your armor?
Cloth or something similar.

What have you played in other games before? Maybe you played a caster in another game and liked it, or have a fondness for barbarians/warriors. WoW might have a rough equivalent for you!
Mainly Caster or a Assassin or something similar.

Do you want to be able to heal yourself and others, or are you okay with lacking those spells?
Some healing spells would be good , but not to be a "full" healer.

Which is your preference: attacking enemies from a distance or being up in their faces?
Distance.

Are you the sneaky type or do you take pleasure ripping out internal organs as a greeting right off the bat?
Right off the bat.

Do you want to be on the front lines with a shield or watching over your group to keep them safe?
Front Lines.

Will you be leveling with a friend or mostly on your own?
Will level solo.




Are you the knight type or the enchantress? Shady dealer or sniper? Any extra details you might want to toss in might help.
Sniper.

Hope this help with choosing a class because tryed all classes in the trial and still nothing.And if someone would want to help me and make me a RAF will be good because i heard that now it will be level cap 80.
