Best class for GB2 (Twlight Highlands / Uldum)

[lukeyboy89]

Alright now that we have custom classes with GB2, survivability has gone through to roof. I want to know which Class you think would have the easiest time farming these places now? Please take into consideration the chances of a class dying when agroing a few mobs etc.

Assume Level 85 + Full Blue PVP gear.

Depends on gear, level etc..

my 83 crap(Cata)gear is doing fine on these areas

 

[Ilja Rogoff]

since i found GB1 with a hunter not working well it's doing very fine with GB2. But Paladin and DK are still the "swiss army knives" of botting IMO

 

[lukeyboy89]

Lets assume your 85 and have full battleground gear. I would assume that Death Knights or Enh shamans would do fairly well because SimpleDK and ShamWoW are great custom classes.

too bad you didn't post what class your crap 83 is!

 

[SDO1]

85 Frost mage in Emberfire/Fireweave crafted PVP gear using Amplify CC is a assume gatherer in all zones using GB2

 

[Thumped]

I use a Shammy and a Druid in those areas...they do pretty good but have issues if they pull 3 or more mobs...not geared well at all.

tauren druid to farm da erbs ofc with gb2, supa fast lightningspeed looting in flightform

 

[lukeyboy89]

yeah but i mean, you cant mine in flight form so if you agro your gonna have to either bail or fight

 

[zoktar]

in my experience is not good to mine and herb, at the same time choose one. but i guess that depends on the user.

All my bots, and all I've ever had > Paladins.
Reason:
# 20% aura, 10% guild speed, 310% mount = 340% flying mount.
# Plate users & Healers

Gear:
# PvP Gear - Use HB to get this
# BoE PvP Gear from Craft - Assumin you have alot of cash ;o)

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Crusader Aura doesn't stack with Guild Perk, neither does it make your 310% mount a 330% ;-)
310% Mount + Crusader Aura = 392% flight speed. The way Crusader Aura works is not by adding 20%, but increasing by 20%.

Mount speed modifiers increase multiplicatively, with each modifier increasing the players Total Mounted Speed (which is "100% + Mount's Speed") by "Total Mounted Speed x (1 + Sum of Modifiers)". Non-stacking multipliers are the only exception to this formula, in which case the largest possible modifier is only applied (either the product of the stacking modifiers or the non-stacking modifier itself).

On Topic: I have a hunter and 2x Paladins. Paladins because they are easiest to level, and get quickest around. I do intend to level a Tauren Druid once I get around to buying a new session, since Taurens gather herbs faster than any other race.

Would you go prot as a pala or retri?

 

[Padisten]

Sorry for a totally newb question but how do I get GB2? I can see it in the HB window but I figured that I could only use it if I had lifetime? (I already have GB standard)

Thanks!

 

[cawpet]

Lifetime only due to GB2 using flight mechanisms which you don't have.
So yes, it requires lifetime currently, this may likely change in future as the flying and GB2 are still in beta.

On topic. DK, start at 55, easy to level, faster flight and they can take a hell of a lot of hits xD.

Why would anyone vote for anything but druid?

I use my feral druid in swift flight form and I found that I am unable to gather herbs in flight form. I just hover for 8 secs flapping my wings and then finally go into druid form, gather, then back into swift flight form. Could you possibly share your Druid macros with me. Thanks.

Get GB2 its much better for this.

Wut? You mean like every other class? Damn......
Druid is pretty imba. I've used Priest and Paladin to good effect as well though. The priest is on crap gear and didn't do well in Twilight but Uldum (which has better mines anyway) wasn't much of a problem.
