Default Classes you have the most trouble fighting 1v1?

Assume equal gear and skill. As a rogue:

HARD:
- disc priest (see my post about duelling one)
- hunter (always get kited and the pet is a PITA)
- prot warrior in tank gear (impossible to damage)
- feral druid (impossible to damage)
- frost mage (always get CCd)

EASY
- fury warrior (usually walk away from these with 70-80% health)
- warlock (as long as I have CLoS up and can interrupt the fears)
- ret pally
- shadow priest
- any mage other than frost
- shaman

Just my personal experiences. Yours?

Impossible = Rogue.

Equal gear means the rogue can stunlock me and have me down in 4-5 seconds. Only chance I have is if he procs backlash on me early. I have two shotted S3 rogues in the past with this, backlash,-insta bolt, death coil, another sb.

Obv thats my PvE spec. PvP spec most things are easy, accept rogues again.

I guess rogues are the scissors to your paper. Who's your rock? I guess it's easy for you to own warriors right? Except for the fact that they have Intercept which can be a PITA and Berserking Rage (I forget what it's called exactly) which makes them immune to fear etc?

Disc priests are the rock to my scissors.

Warriors definately aren't my Rock. They are 2nd hardest behind rogues tbh,strike nullifies Drain life, their bloody fear immunity, interupts etc. Intercept for when i do fear...

I love fighting paladins, even if they bubble its just easy mode.

It all depends on spec tbh, as drain mana pwns vs. some people. Hunters are easyish to beat, as are mages.

Default Re: Classes you have the most trouble fighting 1v1?

Hard
===

Frost Mage - Clos is just 5 seconds and a minute cool down. Frost mage can freeze me again and again.

Cat/Bear Druid - It's nearly imposible for me to beat them. They can stun me too.

Combat Mace/ ShS Rogues - Combat mace rogues can stunlock me to kingdom come. ShS rogues If I'm winning they still can turn the table around by running away and teleporting behind me to give me a hard crit.

Easy
===
Warlock - My food
Priest - Also my food
Fire mage - Definitely my food.

Assuming from the CLoS comment you're talking from your rogue perspective KaK? Also have you fought a Disc Priest on your Combat Swords rogue?

I can't tell the difference between a holy priest or a disc priest. Either they come in healing their mates or out in shadow form attacking people. Afaik, I've never been defeated by a priest before.

I find disc priests (esp. those with 400+ resil) impossible to kill. The most I can get them down is about 20%. Shadow and Holy priests are EZ mode. But Disc Priests are impossible!
