Some help for a noob

[nobbie]

Thanks for the info. Let me give you my backround a bit...
D1 - Warrior.
D2 - Barb and some Pally
Divine Divinity - Warrior
Sacred - Gladiator
Guild Wars - Warrior
BG and KOTOR - Soldier and Guardian

Host of other games - warrior, warrior, warrior, warrior, warrior - I think you get the picture. It's not really a choice for me  :)

I see your point, but let me give you another important hint with respect to the WoW Warrior: In solo combat (and up to level 60 you will be underway solo most of the time), you are limited to ONE healing pot every 2 minutes in combat, and ONE bandage every minute in combat (provided you're not being pounded on). It's not like D2 where you simply hammer the "1" key and slurp one big purple after the other :)

That being said, a Rogue is the better melee combat soloist even with lower armor because it can dispatch (and stun) enemies so fast that healing in combat (and downtime through eating) just isn't an issue most of the time. So, you may want to give a Rogue at least a try. The lack of healing was the premier reason why I've eventually given up my level 60 Undead Warrior who is a herb/ore farmer now. He does that job well, though ;)
