What Class Should I Bot?

[MadDog]

Ok guys, so once my exams are over I am going to make a new class and bot it all the way to 85. Here are the options:
-hunter
-rogue
-paladin
-warrior

Also, feel free to say what horde race.

belf pala...because everyone have one xD

Belf Rogue for the nice silence racial that will be awesome for extra dmg time.
otherwise belf paladin because paladin goes fast 1-85

Paladin or hunter. Rogue and warrior bots weren't that great I found. I leveled as prot paladin it was cake. I'd run instances between bottling sessions. Hunter worked decent as well.

I voted Pala, but it depends on what its for...

Gathering Palas are awesome Plate wearing/Self Healing Bots that just go on till your client crashes or Ragnarock arrives, nothing stops them...

Otherwise if its to actually play, again Pala is fun, if you go healing or tank you can chain instances etc, but I loveto play a Hunter as they are just fun to play imop, (I love pet classes)...

please tell me thank you .

I voted paladin aswell, since its the only of those classes I botted myself.

What are you planning on using the BoT for?

Personally I found BE to be the overall Race of choice of Horde due to their Racial to Replenish Mana, Energy and Rune (if DK).

As for Class well that really comes down to what you want to do.

You want something that can deal damage, take some damage and heal.

I myself am using a BE Disc Priest at the moment and I must say I'm quite impressed with it so far. He has no problems Soloing Elites 2-4 lvls higher.

Even a Tauren Feral Druid is something to consider as they are DPS, Tank and Healer all in one. Bonus no need to waste gold on mounts.

Rogue and Hunter... well to be honest outside the BG, I found they got boring real quick. Great fun in BG's though.

Warriors and Death Knights can't heal... Paladin can, but tend to be very Gear Dependant.

However of the four choices you have given, I'd have to agree with the others.

Blood Elf Paladin.

I would like to bot a Pally myself... but what CC can you recommend to use? Would like to bot from level 1 if it's possible.

Just use the default. It works fine for leveling. Around 60-70 you could look for a custom CC.

Forget about the Paladin. Retri Paladin isn't working at the moment since the insta-Exorcism buff is undetectable.
Forget about rogue. It dies way too easily whilst leveling, it's too squishy.
Hunter is pretty much okay as long as you don't use Singular. FPSWare's hunter CC is good.
Warrior is pretty much okay as long as you don't use Singular. FPSWare's warrior CC is good.

All in all I'd probably vote for Hunter. I hate the class through and through but from those 4 choices it's currently the best bottable.

I already am a Panda, and will be in MoP.

I like mages. Hunters are good for leveling. Paladins used to be the best/easiest. Rogues are terrible (hard to make a proper CC for). Warriors are not too bad either.
Mages are just plain sexy, and when using Amplify they level just fine as frost (and using my plugin could/should help). Priests are not too bad (though very squishy).
Warlocks I have never tried leveling. Druids are not bad, although I would level as Feral, and not boomkin, and defo not as a tree.

Basically level as Tank (or DPS if not available), even if your toon has a healer offspec.
Tanks don't die.

From the poll options I vote Huntard.

Atm I'm botting a hunter... and it works really great except for a few minor issues. Using Kick's profiles.

The most annoying problem atm is in Nagrand Outland... trying to go to Halaa vendor >.<. But I'm monitoring the bot all the time so I don't care about that problem.

Maybe I should try Warrior as my second bot.

Since I commented last on this thread I have created a Blood Elf Holy Paladin, using FPS Paladin and Kicks.
With a few breaks, already lvl25 with 225 in Herb and 225 in Mining.
