      So I've been holding strong for a couple of days, but now I'm starting to cave and seriously considering trying to play legit (At least for now) I was trying to think on what I should even play. I've played for about 9 years and played just about everything, I seemed to climb the highest as a healer in PvP usually breaking 2.5k+ and being a pretty big monster raid healer too. elvui + mouse over macro's = god mode. The thing is, it's been... awhile since I've played by hand. Ever since early cata it's been mostly HB, and to be honest I do have light to medium carpal tunnel now. (Thanks WoW...)

      So, I'm stuck on wondering what people might think is a good class to play that might not be insane on my hand. (Like an affliction lock in arenas.. my god... the nightmares.) I've also been considering pveing again too, I like a "do it all class" (that I'm good at ofc) my thoughts are holy paladin or maybe mist monk might be the easiest to play now thats a good do it all class. Anyone have any thoughts on what I should do / play? I've also always wanted to be a resto shaman but to be honest they look difficult to play at high end arenas.

      If you want to play manual but with 1 button method, pick a melee class and use gnomesequencer.

      Started with a monk myself, never played or botted it.
      odd thing I noticed that normaly starting a new character on a highly populated server you get a guildinvite right away most of the time and im level 14 now and still no invite.

      What to play by hand? Nothing.

      Sorry I can't give any useful answer, I can only tell you: I tried to level by hand 2 days ago. After 1 hour I was like "fuck this shit" and never logged back on since then. It just doesn't work anymore. I'm playing since classic and there is just no way to do all of this shit over and over again, especially after 10 years of doing the same tedious stuff. You just can't force yourself to do something that clearly isn't fun anymore.

      But from back when I still played manually, I believe holy paladin is pretty easy going. I used to do a lot of arena back then (Wotlk) with holy pal, resto sham and warlock. Holy pal was my favorite for easy mode. But mind you, it was some years ago, I haven't played paladin in at least 2 years.

      Yeah, sadly that is how I feel. =/ I was thinking maybe spam running dungeons. Thequeue times are insane for healers now randomly. (I guess bots really helped dungeon queues) I logged on a trial account just to check things out. Seems meh still.

      ^^ This

      Spec Beast Mastery, create a few macros (check icy-veins.com for your class) and off you go .. no need to click too much ..
      Collect as much Mastery on your gear as possible and let your pet do the work for you.

      Oh, one more thing : get the minor-glyph "Fetch" and let your pet collect the loot - even less clicking/walking :cool:

      Yeah, I could always go hunter. I actually mained one for the majority of soo heroic (i guess its called mythic now) I do enjoy them, I'd risk getting burned out fast though. I think atm its between hunter or hpally. Thanks everyone!

      If you want to raid/pvp , there is thing called s*****x.Its pretty expensive, but its godlike almost with every class/spec(warriors routine hits almost like nomnomnoms FU2p).

      This is what blizzard was betting on. play RL until pantheon comes out.

      If your not a baddie play whatever you want, if you are go DK or hunter assuming you want to sustain high performance relative. If tanking is your thing play a monk. If healing go disc priest. GG

      You sound just like me Cyanide! I healed hardcore by hand for years then bought honorbuddy when I went casual! My recommendation play druid, but only because its my favourite class :p

      Just use bittens spell flash addon then you can play any class basically and just read icyveins to know your order, I personally tried leveling a hunter just couldn't do it, might just gear pally by hand, probably got CBF syndrome though until the bot is back up.

      Auctionator is nice for buying stuff. If someone puts 1000 ore in 1 Pieces cheap in the AH you only have to click the mouse for every auction. If its this way I use both hands to click. With one hand I held the mouse and with the other I drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. ;)
