help on picking a character

Are Paladins decent? I kind of like the sound of that shadow priest, though.

Shadow Priests are fun.  I haven't played a Paladin, but they seem good.  There isn't really a "sucky" class or a "godly" class in WoW.  They all have their uses and are superior in various areas and inferior in others.

What do you mean? Warlocks > * Fear. dot dot dot. Fear. Death. I usally get the warlock down to 20% health before I get feared and he rapes me.

Why does every plight you encounter that involves recommending a class result in a conclusion that is based completely around class vs. class duels? :P

In raids, Warlocks are rarely at the top of the list.  They don't have stuns.  They don't have stealth, they wear cloth and they can't (directly) heal.  Like I already said:

Warlocks can get 1st if they try... :P I have a stun now, and I get healed every once in a while :P (30% I think when my shadowbolt hits or immolate/conflagrate)

You wouldn't pass anyone if they were trying as hard as you.  The stun is a chance, yes?  I said "directly" for a reason.  That's not completely under your control.  My flash heal button is. :P

I'm not saying Warlocks suck.  I'm saying they're not the best class.  I don't think there is one and I'm really sure that's the way Blizzard intends for the game to be.

Warriors got nerfed :(. Rage norm ftl.

Paladins are great IMO. You're a lot better than other classes, until it balances out at 60. Once it balances out, gear is what you need. I loved being a healadin in PvP. You basically live forever, while keeping the other classes around you alive forever. With the right strategy, you can kick any other class' ass, with the exception of a priest and certain druids.

I know they aren't the best. No class is. But I have an AoE stun now... does about 500-600 damage and stuns for 2 seconds

Well. I'm making a Shadow Priest on Burning Blade.

I dont know what druids you have trouble with becuase Healdins would own all druid specs. I might have a chance in feral I time my shape shiftin and healin right but restros are crap and Balance the same story.

Well I decided to go with a mage, as my final; and to leave my hunter as a twink. Since most of his gear is twinked I am afraid to move up and not get good gear for the next bracket.

I didn't see druids too often, so I never had a chance to really practice dueling them, I guess.
