9 Best and Easiest Classes for Beginners in Mythic+ | Dragonflight Season 3

[00:02] knowing it here's the Truth For Better or For Worse many players these days decide what to play based on tier list which is true not just in WoW but in virtually every other competitive game and we're not saying anything is

[00:16] necessarily wrong with anyone making a tier list because we also make them ourselves not to gatekeep but just to analyze the current meta but most tier lists have one big problem just because the spec is strong for high Keys doesn't

[00:28] our goal for today is to really find out what specs are the most beginner friendly while ideally being strong enough to consistently push I/O and you some tips on what to improve if you choose to play one of the nine specs we

[01:20] links below to learn more and get started with an exclusive discount offer for now back to the video first up let's explain the criteria we use to make our good for beginners we need to think of skill floors which represents the lowest

[01:33] amount of effort needed to do well for DPS the most important thing is having a simple damage rotation while ideally having low responsibilities passive tankiness is good too but less important in lower level keys since damage isn't

[01:45] that high anyway it's also going to help if a spec is strong since even inexperienced players can have high impact with big numbers we will need some different criteria for healers and tanks but more on that later so if these

[01:57] are our criteria for DPS you might be wondering ing what high tier specs you might want to avoid as a beginner for range DPS the answer is Mage now of highkey Meta for quite some time but that's because Mage has a high skill

[02:10] ceiling as opposed to a low skill floor and this difference really matters rotationally fire Mage is a very reactive spec requiring players to react damage output this comes with a relatively complicated burst coold down

[02:23] which can't really be pressed on CD and requires careful planning before use in order to make it truly effective the the Mage defensive kit is obviously very strong but that's because Mages have low Baseline defense which requires players

[02:36] to be incredibly proactive with major cooldowns so with a complicated rotation tankiness we wouldn't recommend fire Mage for beginners but you weren't here specs are still the most beginner

[02:50] obvious choice here is Beast Mastery Hunter who is able to check off multiple rotation that requires minimal maintenance while also also having low responsibilities as BM you are way less reliant on cooldowns compared to other

[03:04] specs allowing you to do consistently high damage all run this removes a lot decision of when to prioritize CDs allowing you more freedom to practice mob control and general defensive play now I know that some of you Hunter Mains

[03:17] might be saying that barb shot adds some complexity to the spec but there are similar and even more complex forms of Maintenance so we're going to ignore learning curve for Hunter is obviously their survivability which leaves a lot

[03:32] to be desired but only becomes a real challenge above the plus 23 key range so if you want to train yourself to be ready for higher Keys focus on making survival of the fittest before major damage events and then being quick to

[03:45] the flip side we will also recommend should know by now warlock is an absolute tank although damage is less of an issue in lower Keys this is still highly beneficial for any beginner since

[03:58] you aren't nearly as punished for whiffing your defenses the Destro damage and thanks to this season's tier set cataclysm is a default Talent making it very easy to multi- dot on bigger PS just like Hunter warlock has less

[04:11] giving the spec less overall responsibilities with that said a big learning curve for warlocks is knowing how and when to use Shadow Fury unlike which means getting in the habit of monitoring name plate cooldowns in order

[04:25] to proactively stop vital casts or channels before we move on to melee we have one honorable mention balance Druid is definitely an accessible spec for beginners who are looking for a simple and effective damage rotation while the

[04:37] and ramping balance Druids are able to put out impressive numbers fairly consistently especially during big pulls thanks to their uncapped AOE with that when it comes to potential responsibilities and there is a lot you

[04:51] want to have Maximum Impact on your group being ready to stop casts with beam roar or knocks while having the awareness to inter inate your healer or battle res your Shaman should all be weighted equally to your damage balance

[05:04] DRS can also encounter a learning curve for their rotation despite having a low skill floor the spec is littered with ways to min max just like many other DPS boomkins are rewarded not only for properly managing dots and secondary

[05:16] resources but also have secondary procs and Buffs to play around like Pulsar Star-Lord and potentially even orbit breaker knowing out to properly minmax passives like these is what allows high rated boomkins to do incredible numbers

[05:28] and is a big reason why boomy has slowly crept into the top of recent leaderboards anyway with range DPS sorted let's move on to melee with Rett Paladin as our first pick the appeal of playing this spec as a beginner includes

[05:40] the fact that it's fairly easy to do big damage virtually every button you press priority based rotation dealing damage is quite intuitive ret is also one of the lucky melee specs to have extended

[05:52] range on every single attack making it a pseudo range spec and giving it more mechanics and as one of the tankiest melee in the game Rett is less prone to players to invest more into pumping damage much like Mound stuid the main

[06:06] figuring out how and when to weave in utility R can provide tons of support to its group whether it be through a clutch Bop or Sack or simply being ready to off heal and dispel when needed in the past we've said that healer Mains tend to

[06:20] make the best red Palladin alt since being aware of what's happening to your group allows you to have enormous impact in the success of your runs but if utility really is isn't your thing then Fury Warrior is another solid choice for

[06:32] a beginner spec on paper dealing damage as a fury Warrior is pretty while attacking a priority Target with a streamlined two or three button rotation in the past we've seen comments that Fury requires High APM and while there

[06:45] might be some truth to that virtually every melee spec in wow can be quite Global intensive too without a complex rotation and as a passively tanky class time into General Mythic plus practices being effective with interrupts and stop

[06:59] STS and as a more advanced learning curve Fury Warriors should research when and where to use spell reflection this is a spell with lots of depth ranging from simple damage reduction to actually being an effective damage button when

[07:11] used with taunt now at this point we've only covered DPS and that's for a good reason between the three roles DPS are probably the most beginner friendly with tanks definitely being the least now we don't want to get into a discussion

[07:23] ranged because there are definitely valid arguments on both sides and we're sure the comments section will sort everything out but no matter what as a DPS if you make blunders across an entire run it's usually not a big deal

[07:36] after all dying is never a DPS problem but a Healer problem we're totally are less forgiving when it comes to a the tank rooll places a massive emphasis on game knowledge and although there is

[07:50] a wealth of information teaching you how and what to pull putting all of this into practice can be a challenge if you unfamiliar with mob and boss mechanics or lack basic tank in fundamentals like how to group pulls while learning when

[08:02] abilities versus survivability because of how much individual mistakes can affect the entire group we think tank is the least friendly role for beginners somewhere in the middle are healers and here our criteria needs to change once

[08:16] is having a simple reactive healing kit then if a Healer has lower responsibilities and is passively tanky we're looking really good and as an added bonus if a Healer can easily do damage then we're absolutely golden with

[08:29] would probably not suggest as a beginner is Resto Druid who isn't able to achieve our primary goal of having a simple reactive healing kit this is because Resto Druid healing is entirely proactive requiring players to really

[08:42] advance in order to deal with major damage waves because of this Druid is comes to dealing damage shifting into cat form and spamming damage globals can fall behind on hot maintenance if you are inexperienced in Mythic plus Resto

[08:58] challenging despite being a high tier meta healer instead we're going to give you two different recommendations starting with Resto Shaman despite being high Keys Shaman are an excellent choice for anyone looking to try out healer in

[09:12] Mythic plus remember that the defining trait we're looking for is having simple intuitive and most importantly reactive heals and Shaman definitely checks all of these boxes instead of needing to ramp up heals in advance Resto Shaman

[09:25] alternating between chain heal and healing Sur in order to fit different Shaman has a few forms of Maintenance but aren't super punished by slacking on keeping up either one of these it is

[09:40] damage as Shaman and because of its reactive healing kit assisting with damage is less disruptive as well not only will Shaman passively deal damage weave in lightning bolts or chain lightning in order to fit pull sizes

[09:54] procs as fillers and all of this was recently buffed so if if you were have high impact on the damage meters Resto Shaman might be a good fit the main learning curve of Shaman is playing around title waves finding key moments

[10:08] efficiency instead of relying exclusively on chain heal and healing surge now before we reveal our next beginner-friendly healer we need to speec is less important as a Healer in entry-level keys since there's less

[10:22] overall damage to heal with that in mind we're also recommending holy priests for mostly to its highly rea acve and intuitive healing kit just like Shaman holy priest has a clear healing button to fit into every single damage pattern

[10:35] reducing complex decision-making with that said the spec can suffer against physical damage in lower key levels this is less of an issue but in order to push higher Keys priests need to play proactively stacking damage

[10:48] reduction in advance with flash heel and being ready to pre-fade those big one Holy priest is navigating cooldown reduction this spec is built around CDR on holy word spells which can often mean planning globals in advance to maximize

[11:02] healing output now it's finally time to move on to tanks where we need a new set of criteria once again we will need to consider the rotation complexity but now threat can be gathered on pull and whether or not a tank has multiple

[11:15] cooldowns to fall back on for many of these reasons we would not suggest brew master monk this spec is a classic victim of button bloat having a very complex rotation compared to other tanks monks can also feel quite naked not

[11:29] literally but defensively and despite having multiple defensive cooldowns each has a relatively long cool down instead we have two suggestions for tanks that are better suited for newer players the first is Guardian Druid of all things

[11:41] straightforward tank with a simple rotation short cooldowns and the right amount of stops like many tanks Guardian Druids have some maintenance and need to focus on balancing rage between damage and generating iron first Stacks because

[11:54] of this Druids can feel a bit squishier on pull when iron for Stacks are low but can circum prent this by entering polls with mitigation preop so despite being considered a weak option for high Keys Guardian Druid might be the best overall

[12:06] option for newer players looking to pick up the tank roll with a simple rotation combined with high survivability Druids are a great choice another tank we might recommend for beginners is protection warrior Warriors are one of the Premier

[12:18] tanks when it comes to threat generation and encounter less aggro issues compared all the time this is because prop Warriors have very efficient forms of physical damage mitigation having ignore pain and shield block combined with

[12:31] demoralizing shout in order to make it easy to survive during pulls and when more mitigation is needed or in cases of emergency prop Warriors have multiple higher impact CDs to fall back on once again this double threat of short and

[12:43] long damage mitigation CDs makes protection Warriors live up to their tank name now you might be pointing out that Warriors have limited utility but ironically this makes them easier to play since you can focus on actually

[12:55] tanking so with less responsibilities a simple rotation and with great physical durability prop Warriors are a fantastic option for any beginner tank but no matter where you are on your journey skill cap is here to help for a limited
