The three soloing classes are warlock, hunter, and paladin. The hunter is best against higher-level mobs (we’re talking taking out a 58 elite with a 51, or a 52 with a 35), where the paladin is best at taking on multiple mobs (I’ve handled 7 yellow mobs on mine). If you are good at getting a small amount of enemies by themself, I’d go hunter. If not, maybe paladin (after 40 is when they really shine).
As for professions, herb/alch is good, but you probably should go with 2 gathering professions. I didn’t on my first toon and I was broke unless I spent hours farming. On my new server I went with mining/skinning and my level 12 hunter has over 15g already. I would recommend skinning (as it doesn’t use a tracking) and This goes for whatever class you choose.
As far as enjoying soloing? I’ve gotten a hunter to 54 without ever grouping. So yes they can solo. However, you need to group a bit in order to learn your role. Hunter’s roles are severely limited, and you may be even more limited depending on the group.
A paladin, however, has a very clear group role, but you’ll need to learn to tank and heal to do those. Not knowing your playstyle, as of right now I’d recomend either. They’re both fun, interesting, and soloable.-comma long-slash comma comma asterick underscore asterick comma comma long-slash commaSorry …forgot to ask if you can get into Instances and battlegrounds solo and are they doable if you have progressed to a safe enough level to survive them or would the rewards be to far below an optimum use level?
Thanks again!!Hello Hunters,
I hope this is not a question that has been beat to death previously
I’m new to WoW and have arrived here after 5 on and off years in DaoC.I have tried out almost all the classes to lvl 15-20 to just get a rough feel for their gameplay and I think I will be choosing a Hunter.
My question to those that would care to share an opinion is this…
I’m picking a Hunter because they seem fun and interesting and soloable (I have to solo more often than not due to recent RL changes).I will mainly be a PVE player and will take either or perhaps Herb/Alc.
My question is this…given the above limitations to can a Hunter still enjoy a career in WoW as a solo PVE’er and find lot’s of interesting content to satisfy his MMO addiction?
I just love the feel of MMO’s and want to continue playing one despite missing out on some of the core concept’s.
Thanks!
