Best WoW Forever classes
World of Warcraft: Forever brings back the nine classes from the game’s 2004 launch, with Blizzard aiming to make them feel balanced while preserving their distinct playstyles. The article compares classes by activities such as gold farming, PvE roles and PvP, helping players choose a class to suit how they want to play.
It notes that classes can offer several specialisations, including hybrid roles, despite appearing suited to one main job. Mages and Warlocks are highlighted as strong caster damage dealers, while Rogues and Hunters fill the melee damage category; four classes can heal. Gold is also important for buying gear and supplies, though the supplied article text does not specify individual class rankings or detailed PvP recommendations.
In short
- Forever features the nine original World of Warcraft classes.
- Class strengths vary across gold farming, PvE and PvP.
- Mages and Warlocks are noted for caster damage.
