Consider a DoK then or a WE, BG solo spec requires you to get bolstering anger for sustain but specing into that results in you missing out on dmg tactics like hastened doom
Tanks: ~ 27% of all Destro players
Healers: ~ 30% of all Destro players
Ranged DPS: ~ 21% of all Destro players
Melee DPS: ~ 20% of all Destro players
Which makes it kind of strange that folks are saying that tanks and healers are the most needed archetypes. There's actually a crap ton of both tanks and healers. The problem, I suspect, is that many of those players play their class as if it were a DPS, rather than a tank or healer.
Shaman is actually one of the most-played Greenskin classes, right alongside Black Orcs... most of the time. Choppas are the least-played Greenskin class. This changes depending on whether you're talking about European primetime (right about 2-3:00 PM in the US) vs. US primetime. There seem to be a lot more Shamans online during European primetime vs. US primetime, where the Shamans tend to dip down towards the lower end of the Greenskin population.
How do I know all this? Two or three times a week, I pull numbers from the "Who's Online" PHP page, throw them into an spreadsheet, and then parse the numbers together to get averages. One of these days I'll get a mind to save myself some work, and write up some code together to do it automagically and throw it into a database.
