Every time I ding on Gal I get the urge to go play an alt, snd I go clear a spot for yet another new member of the family. I then level said alt to 5, 6, or 7, then I sleep. Then the next day when I am done with all my work, I log on WoW and cannot stop questing or instancing on Gal until she dings again, and the cycle continues, and the alt is deleted. I have felt this since level 58.
For once I'd like to make an alt that is not a hunter that I can actually stick with. An alt that is not another DPS class. I want to be a healer or a tank. I want to feel wanted without having mana issues, being squishie, or having to run around smacking things with my sword and worrying about stances. I want to be a valid class for both PvE and PvP. I also want the option to run solo. I also want to level fast.
The last suggestion I got was to play a shammy, so I made Fiali, my level 3 troll shaman with the purple mohawk. Before that I was trying out warlocks, and I got to level 7 before deleting her and starting her over on a different server (she's now stuck at 3). I also rolled a level 4 UD priest which I love to death but just can't quite get into.
Now I think the perfect thing for me would be a druid, however, I dislike how fem taurs look, and male tauren and night elves are just so friggen' common. But druids have the options I want. The other downside is that Z is leveling his druid to come play with me in Outlands, and I don't want to cramp his style. The final downside for me is that I am used to playing a relatively simple class (no, I know hunters aren't really simple, but you understand what I mean), and I think all the shapeshifting and whatnot is gonna get on my nerves.
So what to do?
Roll another hunter while I think about it?

My main is, and always has been my hunter, who I have been doing some early endgame with now.
To break up the pressures of raiding, I turned to alts, I went through a priest, a druid, another hunter, until I started a human paladin.
I started filling out the protection talent tree, she is now level 48 and defies death at every corner whilst taking on multiple mobs. She is a joy to play and lots of fun (most of the time). Consider giving a aoe grind prot pally a go :)
Interesting.... As a hordie, of course, paladins are pretty new to me—playing them, not killing them XD. I tried out a belf pally when the expansion came out, and found them a bit too weak, and way too popular. However, now that the "pally rush," so to speak, is over, maybe I should give it another shot. Thanks for the suggestion!
all healers have their niche, druids and shammys make good multi-player healers while priests and pallys make good singe-target healers, pallys are prolly the easist jus from a purely healing aspect, and all they really consist of is a FoL spam, priests mostly rely on bomb heals and mana regen out of the 5 second rule, druids HoT everything up and stay mobile (lol) and shammys can chain heal 3 targets or even bomb heal when necessary
jus keep having fun, regardless of whom you are playing on, thats all the really matters

I keep thinking lately, "Someday I will make a serious non-hunter alt" and I it keeps not happeniing. I tried the druid, got to bear form and lost interest, although I keep thinking I should pick it up again. (I am one of those rare people who LOVES female taurens and could roll more all day long-- this is good because there are too many night elf druids and I don't want to add to the overpopulation.)
My highest-level non-hunter alt is a level 21 mage who used to be kind of fun to play but now, I dunno, she's not huntery enough.
Such a quandary for those of us who want to give something else a try, but just can't...
