Starting WoW...

Your asian you should roll a level one gnome and spam me to buy your gold.

Rogues are wtfstereotypical and easymode, but a good way to learn the game a bit since they aren't that complicated? I'd say go with mage, though. I really should play mine more, still only 64/65 (I don't even remember).

Mages are one of the most loved DPS classes for all instances, though, because of water and sheepage. Crowd-control is always handy. And, AoE. I've never seen a group say no to a mage. Warlock can be pretty darn nifty too, but I have yet to see a warlock kick as much ass as a mage.

Hunters are fun, too, but from what I've seen, they've lost their utility in end-game. If you're just going for kicks and giggles, though, they can be a lot of fun, too.

Bard is basically the Warrior class, right?..

You sure? Ice traps for CC, some hunters can double ice trap, and they do DPS well.

I wouldn't level up for the end game. Just go for kicks and giggles, since you'll (hopefully) take the StarCraft bandwagon when it comes out.

He plans to quit towards the end of summer, so... yeah. And SC2 won't be out when summer ends. :|

Uhh, no. Learn2D&D.

Bard plays an instrument, and is for the most part worthless.

Bards can be awesome if played properly (in real pen and paper D&D).

Rogues and Mages are overplayed. Make a shaman for wtfpwn melee/spellcast.

Shamans are terrible.  All they have going for them is burst DPS, but otherwise horrible mana control.  My main is a shaman and so I know.  They need to be fixed.

It's true, but it's not as reliable as sheep (cooldowns, etc), and since I've hit 70, I've only seen one hunter that could do anywhere near as much damage as I can. I always see "LF Mage for <insert instance>", but never "LF Hunter". There doesn't seem to be any cases where you actually need a hunter for anything, whereas Pre-BC, they were pretty essential to end-game raiding. It's the main reason I stopped playing my hunter.

Ice Trap has a 30 second cooldown now with a 20 second duration, good luck doubling.

Warlocks are godly.
