False... U probably never played wow, or played post nerf content on normal mode. 1 - Go back in time and kill Ragnaros Heroic Pre nerf, then go tell Paragon that kill Heroic Ragnaros was easy. 2 - Make a pug and try to down Heroic Lich King today, and now imagine how it was back on WotLK without nerfs. 3 - Go go kill Sinestra. 4 - Then u come back here with screen shots and maybe i listen to that.

As a WoW player i felt like i had to post here and explain my POV on somethings u guys said. I went 6/7 Heroic on Firelands pre nerf and i know how important addons can be. 1st - "Addons make the endgame content and raid easier." Thats not true, in fact, if u take a look at WoW as it is today, it would be impossible to Raid without addons, so your statement could be valid back on Vanilla or Burning Crusade, but not today. Addons in fact help the developers to make fights harder and more challenging, which make them more fun (Those who don't like challenges shouldnt even be raiding, they should be doin heroic dungeons.). 2nd - "Stop using WoW as an example." That would be impossible since wow started the whole addons thing on MMORPGs, so it would be like discussing about soda pop without mentioning Coke. 3rd - "It should be used as a self improvement tool that doesnt show other people your performance as a player" Possible but worthless. You can do WoW raids without Damage/Healing meter addons, but those who know what they are doin will realize when someone is doin a poor job and will kick this guy from the raid ASAP. How the **** am i supposed to be a good tank if i cant see my threat? How am i supposed to be a good DPS if the only DPS i know its my own dps? What about healing? How am i supposed to be a good advertiser without ever watching tv, reading news paper, using internet or anything like that? U need comparison for self improvement. 4th - Damage/Healing meters also create a good thing for the community, and that thing is called COMPETITION. I realize that some of u guys play games only for fun, but for some people like me, theres no reason to play a game if i'm gonna be the worst and the most useless guy on my group. Competition is good, it helps the community to grow, want u or not. So basically, addons help the developers to improve the game challenge, help the players to self improve. Raiding without competition its like playing soccer with only one team playing.

I started playing the game 3 days ago, so i'm really ignorant when talking about the classes in this game, even though i played wow for a couple of years, and heard that some of the Talent trees are close to the elemental shaman and tha affliction warlock. That being said, i decided to come here and ask you guys some questions related to the class. I'm thinking about playing both PVP and PVE untill i decide where i'll focus, so i'm gonna ask about both: 1st - Balance vs Tele, which is better for pvp, which is better for pve, and why? 2nd - Which has better sustained DPS? which has better burst dps? 3rd Which has more survival and CCs? 4th - which is the most challenging?
