    I spent a while compiling old forum posts and CZcams videos about classes to decide what I wanted to play, made quite the impressive collection of old data including pre-bis lists and optimal gearing routes.
    Then my GM messaged me and said I was playing Resto Shaman.

      Doesn't sound to fun if your GM decides your class. But theres little context here so i'm not judging to much.
      Playing what you find most fun > whats most optimal everytime.
