The Ding Thread

Druid 80, Paladin 71, Shaman 71, Rogue 70, Death Knight 66.

Druid 80, Paladin 74, Shaman 71, Rogue 70, Death Knight 70.

D:  DKs are OP as shit.

Hit 80 and raid with them. It takes work, as any other class, to do the proper amount of average dps. Death knights really level out a little prior to 80. It doesn't take much work, but getting to about 2k dps on a death knight isn't a free thing. I'm working on my hit rating right now, and going to spec over to frost/unholy and dual wield swords once i get about 350 hit rating. I'm a draenei so I can maybe slack on that a little, but meh... not too far away. The frost/unholy dual wield spec does about 3k - 3.5k avg dps depending on gear. In all epics I'd expect probably like 4-4.5k avg dps.

edit:

Ding 60 on my new rogue. 2 days played time. ftw.

wtf? ive started a rogue alt and shes only 16 with probably a day /played. =( I usually fuck around, but ive found the old zones are shitty. to properly level you gotta travel like a mother fucker. i dont remember doing this much walking pre-bc. =\

I wouldn't say it's hard.  Our off-tank ( who was 2H'ing as frost ) was pulling 3k DPS while tanking, we'll see what he pulls this week as DW unholy.

I didn't say it was hard. I said it wasn't free. Once you hit 80, you're not going to be doing 2k+ dps right away. You still have to do what every other class has to do, which is run heroics, 5 mans, etc, for nice blue items.

Meh.  I walked in Naxx pretty undergeared,  I had the crafted caster LW set along with some of the crafted PvP gear, very little +hit rating and was pulling right around 2k DPS on the heroic dummies.  Naxx isn't hard, so if you know a group of people who clear it you could probably tag along for a week or two and get geared.

As what class? Your druid? Boomkins have been pwning me in dps lately - or, the ones I group with regularly anyways. I'm on a pretty low pop server with c0ol (Ursin, Alliance), so it's kind of tough to find groups. I haven't even done Naxx yet, and I've been 80 for several weeks. =(

Yeah, I'm sitting at 3k overall right now after clearing 2 wings.

I was pulling a bit over 4k on my lock as affliction on my first naxx25 on patchwerk. But i had every item i could get from badges before we had enough people at 80 to raid. After we beat everything i burnt out hard, currently im leveling my dk rather casually, just hit 70. And dks are totally op. Maybe not in general but definitely for leveling.

Yea, death knights may feel OP while questing, but just put it in perspective... mages have it easier, because of their high dps aoe and snaring. Mages can still pull more than a Death Knight. Death Knights can just solo elites fairly easily until the later stages of Northrend. Druids can solo elites better than a Death Knight, though, if they keep switching between bear and non-bear form for tanking and healing purposes. So, I mean, if Death Knights are OP, then these other classes must be mega-OP.

On my Death Knight though I can solo a lot of the bosses in AQ20. Some of the pulls you have to go through are tougher than the bosses.

I pull anywhere from 3-4k on Patchwerk Naxx10.  I'm also the resident imp-FF caster since we don't raid with a Shadow Priest, so it knocks my DPS a bit.

finally hit 80 on my death knight, two 80s now

[warz]

nice. i've got a complete dps set... i'm working on my tanking set now, since being a dps dk is kind of boring.

I hit 80 on my Paladin a week or two ago.  So now I sit at: 80 Paladin, 80 Druid, 75 DK, 74 Shaman, 70 Rogue

leveling is ftl

I'm pulling 4k+ dps single target now.

I'm not sure if I'll like/be good at tanking yet, definitely want to give it a shot though. All I've ever done is dps before so a change would be nice.

I hit 80 on my Paladin a week or two ago.  So now I sit at: 80 Paladin, 80 Druid, 75 DK, 74 Shaman, 70 Rogue

Right now I have 80 lock, 80 dk, 72 shaman, 70 rogue, 68 dk (horde)
My DK needs professions. I'm thinking of leveling my rogue just because he already has mining leveled high and doing the (expensive, time consuming, painful) combination of jewelcrafting and blacksmithing.

I'm pulling 4k+ dps single target now. 

What class?

[Blaze]

Mage, duh!

Well excuse me for not being able to infer what class you play from how much dps you do. Jerk.
