I played in first originally but switched out a month or two into classic (when I learned you could). As a kiting druid, seeing when things got too close was a lifesaver.

Anytime i've tried 3rd person indoors i have to switch out cause of the angles it creates. I might try using it more outdoors but after playing in first person for 15 years its hard to change. The occasional switch is made to see around corners or heal around corners when on a healer but most times first person is good enough. Kiting in first person just requires you to get a feel for the timing.

that's why I don't like most dungeons because the camps are setup in a small room, it was bad as a rogue I could position myself to fit my camera but it blows as a caster. always hated hills too, OT was the worst 5 levels for me :P

As often as I can, I go for first person simply because it creates a "more immersive experience." In largely third person games like WoW, you never see the detail of everything in the world, including the gear and faces of the people you're playing with. Everything is from as much of a distance as possible to expand your view. First person sacrifices a lot of practical benefit obviously, but the level of immersion is unparalleled. You see the sky more often, small details become more present, and the people you play with become more recognizable and humanized.
