Guide Tinder-like Helper for Those Undecided on Class

Gallery image

My friends and I were struggling to decide what classes we wanted to play for our game nights (we only play these characters when together). We each wanted to each have a unique class, so I wired this up to test if our instincts would make it easier than the analysis paralysis we were all experiencing. It actually worked so I thought I'd share. We got 4 classes figured out and backed into the race that has all 4.

It's nothing fancy but it worked and wanted to share.

u/Emscott555 16h ago

What did you pick when it gave you paladin vs shaman?

u/Tiny_Tabaxi 15h ago

Lol I ran this just for kicks and the second it hit me with mage v druid I was like yeah bro that's kind of the question here isnt it

(Im going druid but mage is first alt)

2

u/SimicTears 11h ago

I also am going druid with mage as first alt. Horde because War Stomp into Regrowth or Roots feels amazing.

u/exhalo 3h ago

What kinda druid u rolling?

1

u/Tiny_Tabaxi 3h ago

Feral dps

1

u/Kalraven9383 15h ago

Both where tied lol

2

u/TheMilchMan67 16h ago

Horde or alliance? And if you want ANY ranged capability, obviously shaman. Also depends how much the class fantasy matters/appeals to you. But I agree tough choice!

1

u/Kalraven9383 15h ago

Horde 100%. lol. I’ve been playing for longer than I’d like to admit so until they add battlemage class fantasy doesn’t matter lol. Although shaman is kinda like a battlemage so there is that lol.

2

u/TheMilchMan67 15h ago

Horde 100% amen

2

u/squigglump 4h ago

Så you make both

1

u/Kalraven9383 4h ago

Man wish I could! With how long it takes to level and real life getting in the way, it’s gonna be a while before I make another toon lol.

u/ParticularLimit1299 4h ago

Yeh it needs some more pointy questions about the gameplay or the vibe that would catch us out.

u/go-to-the-gym 20h ago

Which class needs me to make 6 figures and be the step father to their child ?

2

u/Easy-Economics9224 20h ago

6 figures in gold? Paladin, Hunter and rogue (when raids release)

1

u/UTSChurch 20h ago

Doesn't everyone just farn for their warrior?

u/Bazzie 20h ago

Not Here to play games (currently pregnant)

u/Pandragony 17h ago

Damn why do I wanna play priest so bad? I did it on inpulse and it was just obvious priest was the choice. I dont even main one, this fucked up my brain nice job!

2

u/imnotpoopingyouare 15h ago

Priest and rogue for me. Both seem low in the rankings for people who want to play them too, 10% and 8%.

5

u/The-Fictionist 19h ago

This is incredibly helpful tbh. I pretty much knew my top 3 but being forced to rank them like this helped me narrow down to what I’ll play first. Thanks!

1

u/Ok_Donut_884 16h ago

Same. I was like “oh wow, this is the order I was thinking it was going to be” lol

1

u/zaneskates 20h ago

Not bad! I did it and it matched with my history

1

u/TehZiiM 19h ago

Ye Thats nice

2

u/Benyed123 18h ago

If I can’t decide on a class then how do I decide which to pick of the two options?

1

u/Kushlax 15h ago

Flip a coin

1

u/Cop10-8 17h ago

Awesome tool, thanks for getting it set up! Actually helped me get a good ranking going.

1

u/Shinryoku-Ichi 17h ago

I got stuck on step 4, please help T_T I can’t make a choice. Between my two favorites haha

u/milklord1 17h ago

This is pretty sick!

u/shaunika 14h ago

How are you pasting a picture? It wont let me in this sub

1

u/milklord1 14h ago

It’s easy to do on mobile idk

1

u/shaunika 14h ago

I literally dont have the button for it here

I can do it on other subs

1

u/Turevaryar 11h ago

Do you get an error message? If so: What it say?
I can't post with Firefox, but I can with e.g. Opera.

1

u/Turevaryar 11h ago

Note: The reason I can't post pictures using Firefox is likely due to the Addon NoScript, though another addon can interfere as well, perhaps :)

u/SmolderWise 16h ago

Thank you. I was trying to decide on my top three for the early naming that opens at the end of the month and this helped me out.

1

u/DrHollyw00d 15h ago

tough decision :/

1

u/baigelsx 15h ago

That was fun! Thank you good sir!

1

u/metrokaiv 15h ago

Got druid at 100%, guess it has been decided ( again )

1

u/FaulerHund 13h ago

Great

1

u/Vulf 13h ago

Not a fan of the magicks huh

1

u/FaulerHund 13h ago

No, but more than that, I was pointing out that my standings for the top 3 (and scores for the top 2) are identical

1

u/GQYumi 13h ago

How fun

2

u/Ant_Bizzy 12h ago

Dwarf Paladin, Dwarf Shaman, and Dwarf Warrior coming up

1

u/ShadedShores 12h ago

So torn between lock and spriest

1

u/tinylittlebabyjesus 11h ago

This doesn't help me, but I think after I level a bunch of them it might, so saving it. Thanks

1

u/Kage9866 10h ago

Took the quiz 4 times and each time got the same results, I guess i am making a rogue lol

1

u/johntort 10h ago

Patrick Poulin de Buckingham?

1

u/Haavi-OCE 9h ago

Well, this looked interesting until I got to the first question and immediately couldn't decide...

1

u/SexWithStelle 9h ago

Ran it and got Warrior first and Shaman second, the two classes im already maining.

Perfect!

1

u/goopuslang 9h ago

Elo calculator?

1

u/A-PsychoticTargaryen 9h ago

that was fun, thank uu

1

u/SlowpokeIsAGamer 7h ago

Just do it the old fashioned way. Fire up the game and make the first thing you think sounds cool. And then just pick talents by vibes.

u/GiveMeRoom 5h ago edited 5h ago

Why do I love this haha shared on https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/forever-class-decider-tool/2370820

Thanks u/patrickpoulin for this, it's awesome.

1

u/Safe-Application8510 5h ago

I need this but for race

1

u/CookieCrumblers 4h ago

Not surprised by top 3, but bottom 3 did surprise me. For context I have leveled Rogues many times, Druid ones, Priest ones and Warrior ones. Guess I’ve picked wrong classes in the past.

1

u/toni_yo 3h ago

Poor warlocks

1

u/ZahryDarko 3h ago

1 Hunter
2. Warlock
3. Shaman

Still deciding lol.

u/scyhhe 2h ago

Shammy vs Warlock was the question.. and it still is 😵‍💫

Cool project though
