ACP, addon control panel, works as well. Just save / import your profile from the ACP window.
Fun thing about ACP is that it plinks itself down on the ESC menu.

I usually just set up one character, go to my WTF folder, create folders for each character and copy-paste the relevant WTF files from the first character's folder to the others.

Warlock.

Back in Late Wrath, Warlocks were OK.

They played a lot like a hunter that casted spells, though the whole "hurt yourself to replenish your mana, then steal HP from mobs" got a little old after constantly doing nothing but that and the occasional DoT/Incinerate, but it is much, so very much better than what we have Now.

Now, Demo (the only warlock spec I ever really tried) is "Immolate, HoG and pray you don't crit with it, and Incinerate, pray it dies before it gets more than 1-2 hits on you".

Your pet can no longer tank (you rip threat off it after the first Incinerate, if your HoG didn't crit... if your HoG crit, that mob is *glued* on you) because they felt the need to remove the Felguard's Taunt (I suppose because some warlocks were too stupid to turn it off in groups).

The only pet that DOES have a "taunt", is the blueberry.

It has no charge (making it useless as a tank pet) and the "taunt" builds next to zero threat whatsoever. You seriously have to let the thing melee and taunt for nearly 10 seconds before you can actually start casting and NOT pull threat off your pet.

My Warlock is still sitting at Level 80 -- someday, I might do the cooking/fishing dailies to get him to 85, but I doubt I'll do much, if any, questing with him whatsoever until/unless they fix solo Warlock.

Other than Warlocks...

I'd have to say I enjoy the other 9 classes, Paladins are good if you're Prot, I feel that Prot Warriors are also pretty good (though I wish they gave them some healing that didn't involve landing killing blows/taking a mob to 20% or lower), Druids are fairly fun to play, though I tend to use Cat instead of Bear. Shamans are cool, Enhance doesn't even NEED totems (I usually only throw them in Tol Barad when I get 2 mobs on me or if I need to fight an elite), Arcane Mage is kinda fun, Combat Rogue ain't too bad either, and BM Hunters are easy-peasy, while Blood DKs are still as cool as ever.

So yeah... Warlock is the one and only class I dislike.

Confronting a Warlock is always been a scary thing, unloading dots and run away. You know and he knows you will die soon; your head is about to explode in a minute and nothing you can do about it...tick...tick....tick...Even your Mama can't save you!

Unless you have a self-heal of some kind, which about every goddamn class in the game has by now.

Howl of terror, fear, death coil, you are dead... Nice toon to RP also

Demonology: Likes to use minions to do the dirty work, no respect for you

Destruction: 3 strikes and your dead

Affliction (my favorite): They want you to suffer, killing you slowly, I might let you live or NOT...up to me not to you.

I deleted a lvl 55 rogue, so I guess that would be my least favorite.

Rogue, probably because my first toon was a druid, and my rogue just feels like a cat-form druid that runs slower and can't shift out of form to heal.

Being able to open boxes (esp. Elementium) without needing a blacksmith and/or farming obsidium is nice, though.

Don't rogues have superior stealth as well?

Rogues get a Perma-bandaid if they go combat; that will heal a lot more over time than those wimpy heals you get as a feral druid.

Rogues' Perma-bandaid scale with Max Health (which gets better every time you get a new piece of gear); the druids' heals don't.

What I do love, however, is Flight Form and the ability to go Bear for certain things. Now, if only Bears could self-heal anywhere near as good as Paladins and DKs.......

I can agree with rogues being pretty boring. Mine has been sitting at 70 for a few months now. It's just really boring getting 5 CP using recup and then just sitting there meleeing away.

They used to not. Pre-4.1, all stealth was equal, meaning a 30% speed reduction while in stealth. In the olden days (WltLK, if I recall), druid was an even better stealther in PvP, just because rogues had to spend talent points in an odd place, while druids talents were almost required in the Feral tree. At least, I think that's how it was. I might be making that part up.

Nowadays, though, rogues no longer have the speed reduction, while druids do. In addition, rogues can pick up a talent that lets them move 10% faster, which means stealthing around is now the fastest way to move at low levels. Weird, huh?

Mage. After playing a warlock for so long they seem really squishy even if they are more mobile. My 71-ish mage is my guild bank alt and sits in Silvermoon for the most part. From time to time I try to play other casters but just can't seem to enjoy them. Guess I'm just melee-biased. Give me a DK, rogue or warrior any day =)

Probably hunter, I used to play it and lately I just can't get back into it. I had it to level 71 - I guess it's still fun but I haven't played it in quite some time. It's just been sitting at 71 since shortly after wrath came out.

Any tank. I just can't tank. Too much pressure, can't get it right. Love all healing specs though.

After a while the pressure mutates into a feeling of omnipotence.

Mage, mages suck. Although they look fun once you get to the 40-50's I've never gotten one past 20.

20 is the money point though, I reckon. Obviously things have changed since Cata, but I remember playing mages in WOTLK - pre-20 your only CC was Frost Nova and Polymorph, and getting hit two or three times basically killed you. Which basically means that if you overpull once and don't immediately run the ef away, you're going to get killed because you can't keep *all* mobs off you for long enough. Past 20, I got another CC spell (forgot what it was at this point) that made my life as a mage considerably easier. Then, as you keep leveling, you get more survivability and CC. Mage is (or was, perhaps) probably the only race that seems to steadily get easier to solo with as you level up.
