I played a Troll Priest and had no problem in PvP and/or PvE. You guys forget the biggest imbalance of all the horde/alliance population -- if you liked pvp rolling alliance was a pita -- 2 hour queues v 15 min queues.

Huge stupid decision by Blizzard, that like Fear Ward, they refused to correct -- though in the case of PvP after 1.75 years they came up with cross server battlegrounds.

None of which has much to do with the discussion at hand.

In any event in all MMOs decisions are made that are irreversible -- what race to play, what class to play. Somehow people manage to make it through and still enjoy the game. All this bitching about selecting the right attributes to optimize is no different then bitching about nerfs to already selected abilities and/or items.

In the case of fear ward the issue isn't that players should all be dwarf priests but that Blizzard should have recognized the problem early and done something about it .

but thats the problem isnt it? same classes, same races. The novelty of it was the attraction, and how can anyone duplicate that? Now it's just developers chasin dreams of MTV cribs and not much fun left to be had.

Under your logic why should anyone do anything new? Seen one western/sci-fi/fantasy film you've seen them all?
