This is the WoW class distribution. WoW is known for being the game with the best class fantasy in vidya. Guess what - everyone just plays Paladin. A similar thing happened in Baldurs Gate 3.

Why can't gamers play something that isn't paladin? This makes zero sense to me

Because I want to have fun.

>i must be able to do everything!
>godmode!
>i'm a faggotdin!
thats it pretty much

>adventurer
huh? what's that?

Faggotdins/palatrans are a known phenomena.

>by far the most popular class
>other specs are faggotdins trash alts

Chaotic evil hands typed this post.

because devs keep making paladin broken. people wanted a high charisma face character in bg3 so that left bard(lmao), sorc(you get one as a party member), and paladin(you can get one as a party member but it requires an evil playthrough) and paladin is the strongest melee in wow.

the answer is always metafaggotry.

>paladin is the strongest melee in wow
It is not, and never has been

>>714483430
Wtf why do they want to engage with both magic and melee mechanics instead of locking themselves into just one of those? That doesn't make any sense to me because I am le silly

Survival Hunter is a melee spec since last year's rework and it's above retribution

i usually prefer mage, but they're often poorly implemented
but paladin will usually have everything you need
>buffs
>cleanses
>healing
While also being a simple sword & board class, plus easy RP for crusading against whatever evil of the game.
It's just an all-in-one + easy class so it has high appeal.

This shows gamers are ultimately good folks who want to do good. Wholesome.

>>714483606s
yes why do you like pussy if you can also suck cocks right?
just the type of answer i expected from a faggotdin

>>714483879
Survival has been a melee spec for longer than that but it will always be a meme spec. Plus the pally bubble is very casual friendly, the skill ceiling for paladin is so small.

lol

>>714483129 (OP)
the mechanical design obviously varies by game but the paladin theme just has really strong main character syndrome vibes

paladins are usually envisaged as
>hard to kill, heavy armor
>hits hard with big shiny weapons
>the good guy
>but not the gay sissy good guy like a healer in a robe with a staff
>despite not being the sissy healer can still heal
>good social skills
>chosen by the divine, special destiny
>holy damage

>>714483129 (OP)
Paladin can deal damage. Paladin can heal. Paladin got unique class mechanics. Paladin got cool class fantasy.

Not even the best MMO.

>>714483129 (OP)
Because usually the "magical fighters" beat the "regular plain fighters" in both gameplay and viability. So usually paladin > warrior

Nigga literally literally 90% of people don't play paladin READ THE FUCKING GRAPH

If shamans could tank they would be up there with pala and druid.

Knight in shining armor is the icon of fantasy as a whole, and also the eras of history that fantasy channel. Do you really need someone to explain this to you? Is your brain so fucking fried by shitposting you can't do ANY BASIC reasoning on your own? Fuck you.

>>714483129 (OP)
A warrior of the holy light is a cool class fantasy for most people, but it doesn't matter on that chart because in WoW most people play the classes that are strong in the current patch.

>>714483129 (OP)
>Why can't gamers play something that isn't paladin? This makes zero sense to me
Because is the upgrade of warrior

>>714483129 (OP)
The fuck is evoker and adventurer?

>>714483534
>10% is 100%
until you apologize for being an idiot btw

More like why would I only like tits if I can also like a woman's ass, tummy, feet, hair?
You're the only one thinking of sucking cock, "man".

>>714483129 (OP)
Whoa weird, why would anyone play the class that just gets three health bars

>timelooping threads
what is this? AI slop ads in disguise? what's going on with these recent wow threads?

>>714484937

>>714484937
Best threads of the last few months. I see no problem.

>>714483129 (OP)
Why is no one playing adventurer

>>714483129 (OP)
Adventurer bros...

I don't play WOW but in other games paladins usually have good damage, self heal capability and defensive buffs making them good at dps and tanking because nobody wants to play healer even though you could spec a paladin that way

If Paladin had titan's grip talent for 2H sword/mace + Shield combo like in Diablo 3 it would have at least 20% population

>>714488229
Why do you not play WoW?

Play WoW. There's an amazing event happening right now.

Everyone's first class is paladin but it's always left gathering dust

>>714483129 (OP)
It's not paladins; it's blood elves and humans, the same shit with NE druids/hunters or human/orc warriors. In addition to that, Druids and Paladins can be healers, DPS, and tanks, and veteran players recommend new players play these classes.
