POLL: what is your favorite class for raid support?

thought about running a poll on what CLASS you like for raid support/raiding with most, for their buffs, class abilities, talent abilities etc.

Please vote and reply why you think that class is worth your vote

let's see what comes rolling out

That would kinda depend on which class you are playing, and to some extent what you are doing. As a mage, my favourite would be a shadow priest closely followed by ele/resto shaman. In short fights where mana isn't a problem the shaman gains upper hand though.

As melee the choice would probably be an enhancement shaman.

Also, every dps class (and in some cases healers) loves Blessing of Salvation.

Hard to choose one really. Shadow priest + elemental/resto shaman + warlock + paladin = happy mage. Enhance shaman + fury warrior + arms warrior + survival hunter + feral druid + paladin = happy rogue.

just tell what is best for you =)

Jeez, I suck at posting in the forums, dont I?

Anyways, the most fun raid support to have is probably an elemental shammy due to the pretty numbers flying around, but in the end a shadow priest is undoubtedly the best.

Shadow Priest imo, can't put "Priest" because shadow priests give the raid great mp5 ^^.

Would have to be shadow priest for me - stam buff, mana back, hots, 5% bonus to casters, shadow weaving which adds 15% on to locks' damage (although i think that's about to be nerfed, and scorch will be improved).

As Gnarlet said though, a shaman is also fantastic to have around.

Guess the key to good raids is having the right combination of classes and good groupings within the raid on a fight by fight basis.
