Every even level? Hm.
Also I have a question about the battle system: is there anything else to fighting than just pointing at an enemy and walking up to it? I pushed the left/right buttons on my mouse at the same time and it seemed like Goinio did a thrust move or something.
Should have rolled a mage man.
What server are you on?
alliance is for pussies and fegs
I expected to prefer just soloing through the game, but playing with other people opened up a lot of opportunities. God damn...
I had some snow boots and after about an hour I realized their durability was depleted, so I bought some new kickass ones. My defense is like 263 now. OMGWhen the durability of your equipment goes down you get it repaired...you don't have to buy new ones.

I don't give a lick about these kinds of games, but seriously...what is the point of playing a MASSIVELY MULTIPLAYER ONLINE role-playing game by yourself?
Because most of the other people who play just plain suck, so you don't have to deal with distinguished mentally-challenged fellows if you just level on your own through the earlier levels....

Ive almost entirely solo'ed two level 60s. Its not an insane idea considering every day im able to leave my house and do many things without finding someone to do it with. Most people drag down my quest grind anyway with wanting to 'look around' and talk too much or wanna become friends over the internet.
Lame.
But all through this they'd run off at various times for stupid things. Like one guy would always run up and mountain and then jump off and say "sry thought I saw a tear of ore". WTF? How could anyone see something like that on the top of a mountain >:(when you are tracking herbs or ore, you'll see a little yellow blip on your minimap to show the location of them. He probably saw that and tried to run up the mountain to get it.
My only concern is with myself and my binge mentality. A lot of times I'll get something and just play/watch/eat/etc it for a long period of time, and then drop it. This happens most with music. For instance, I'll listen to say The Beatles for a month straight, then get tired of them and move to something else. Basically the only game I play religiously is Wolfenstein ET, in part because I'm in a clan.
I'm thinking that once I buy the game and start reading the game manuals (something I LOVE to do lol) I'll get more excited about the game, even more so than I am now. Everyday I learn something new about the game, and with the manuals I could get better faster. Plus of course the WoW boards
I don't think it'll be addictive, I just don't want to play it like mad for a month and then grow tired of it.

What you should do is create an account via game cards. That way, when you run out of time at 4 in the morning and all of the stores that carry game cards are closed, you have to turn it off cold turkey.
If you're going to go blacksmith get mining too. You can mind your own ore and turn it into the bricks.

Maybe I'll make a priest then. I'd like to make a druid but fuck night elves.
Thats what you get for making an allience character.
Can't believe I made a character to play with PD and I haven't seen him online once.
You can use everything I think.
Alright.Just learn all of your weapon abilities.
Before I do I might go back to Ironforge and learn some new weapon abilities. The ones that were offered (gun, dagger) aren't interesting to me, but I'm guessing I have to learn them first before getting the sword option.
PD, want a level 60 rogue? I'm selling. 100 bucks.

undead are the best for pvp
Yeah, it would be like buying a Final Fantasy that starts at the last boss of the game.
Human males look stupid. I'm a total mangina.They do look stupid, short and stocky with huge shoulders.
PD to turn into non gamer. Mmorpg players stop buying consoles and other games. So long buddy lol
Last night was pretty awesome. After searching for ages I finally found a kickass person to help with my quest. He was a dwarven Paladin and he was BADASS. We finished my quest and then proceded to clear out a big cave. Sadly we both got killed after about an hour of AWESOME-ness, and he signed out shortly after. Luckily I put him in my friends list.
Later I wound up doing another kill quest with a couple gnomes. We worked really well together. Around 3am one of them shared a "dungeon" quest with me, but said we'd need 3-5 people to do it. Sounds interesting. I got an "elite" quest as well, which I plan on doing tonight if I can find some people to help.
The community aspect of the game reminds me of college a bit. Right now I'm trying to get into the school of Business, so I noticed like 5-7 people who were in some/most of my classes. We didn't talk much at the time, but I'm sure next semester as things get harder we'll have to work together. With WoW I'm seeing a lot of players I saw in passing during the early stages of the game. Now they're lv14-16 and we seem to be moving along at the same pace. Perhaps one day we shall protect our dwarven homeland
Another AWESOME night.It's so fun to see you talking about all this stuff. I remember back ~march or april of '04 doing all this stuff with my little mage.
I started off by helping this lv13 do a quest; no one was helping him so I decided to go ahead and bail him out. He was very fun to play with and we were able to kick much trogg arse.
About 30min later I noticed someone was begging people to join a quest with him, concerning ogres. I actually chose that quest yesterday but didn't pursue it since I needed help; it's labeled an "elite" quest, which means it's pretty fucking hard. Well I told him I'd join as well as my lv13 buddy. We headed over and met the guy; then we proceded to spend the next 20min begging people to join us. No one seemed interested at first, and the higher level players thought the entire mission was a joke.
Some #18: lol noobs, the boss ogre is lv20, and his minions are all lv19
Goinio: lol coward!
Finally we got a group ready and set off. We didn't have any priests or paladins lol, so I told everyone I'd make a shit ton of band aids and heal people.
(http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e86/PhoenixDark1/drgoinio.jpg)
We then entered The Loch and started our quest. Basically we had to kill 4 brute ogres (all lv20), 4 shaman ogres (all lv19), and 4 regular ogres (all lv19). I think I was our highest lv player at 16 lol. We were able to take out most of the regular ogres with little trouble, and everything seemed like it was going our way. Until of course we got closer to the caves and people started shooting every ogre in sight. We got gangraped countless times lol and then tempers started flaring. Hell I was pissed that people wouldn't WAIT for everyone to heal before shooting another ogre.
After about an hour we had killed everything except the brutes and 2 shamans, but we lost one of our players. A warlock gnome joined a bit later and really saved our asses. He would use his summon monster to aggro a ogre and then lead it to us. This worked for awhile although we were still getting killed constantly. Finally we were able to kill the shamans with this strategy. Those Brutes though..shit. Our plan for them consisted of the warlock luring it to us, then the hunters (we had two) would have their pets attack it while they shot, and I'd charge it. Through some luck we were able to win lol and I got to lv17. Holy shit that was hard, depressing, and yet it was hilariously awesome at the same time. The teamwork was shaky but we pulled through.
I put them all on my friends list lol, and maybe we can do some more elite quests; the reward was 20 silver. :D
Pro-tip: Go back to Ironforge and look on the map from the Gnome area - there's a train there that will lead you to even greater adventures ...

:lol :-*
If whiteacid is online tonight we'll go as a group (assuming she's willing) and I'll teach you how to pull, how to best tank single and multiple mob pulls, why snap aggro moves should be trained (*sigh*) and how they're useful, why hamstring is one of the most important warrior abilities, and how to watch over your group. As the tank, you have to do your best to maintain control over the fight. If you can't, things go to shit pretty quickly with elite mobs in tight spaces.ya, I'll come. You guys wanna do it around 6pm EST? Name a better time if you can't do it then.
Tanking can be addictive if you have a good group.
edit: I'm watching Children of Men at 8 so maybe around 10 EST. Make sure you have a decent one handed weapon, shield, and a bow with a fair amount of ammo.
PeeDee:
Have you ever played a Warcraft game? Like Warcraft III or something.
I think this thread is just awesome.Ya, it makes me kinda want to go back to the days when I was a noob, and everything was new and exciting.
You get to see all the different things that he just misses, like going to stormwind. He hasn't even gone on the tram and he's level 19!
Right around 20 is when all of the nice wetlands/duskwood/cool redridge quests kick in.
i used to love doing those quests, then when you get ~30 you can do shimmering flats, which i just love.
Then 40 it's tanaris baby! ogre grinding ftw.
unfortunately since you're a warrior you'll have to gear yourself up in instances.... if that's how things still work anyways.
you're making me want to play you bastard
Wetlands are gay, I think the only worse place is Westfall
You weren't on yet!
That's my fault. I get you and etoiliate mixed up and I thought you were emptybox, so when I saw him log on at 9 I said let's do VC.QuoteYou weren't on yet!
I logged on when I said I would.
Hah, you finally got out of there. I think you were in the Deadmines when I logged on and I almost went from lvl 34 - 36 in that time.
The quests in wow suck, are they changing that for Burning Crusade?
Okay, fuck this shit. I can't play the goddamn trial without entering my fucking credit/debit card shit? NO. That should be optional. Right now I don't have a valid card so now I'm unable to play. Well shit muffins, that's just fine and dandy!wtf

Yo guys. I'm prolly not going to be on until late tonite because I want to finish up Dexter. I'll catch up with you on the weekend. Do you guys have an official playing time?No official playing time, but most of us usually play at night. After 5 or so.
Using Taunt to get the enemies attention and then Sundering their armor. After that I'd use Demoralizing Shout. With whiteAcid it was hard because she was doing so much damage to the enemies that they'd ignore me after awhile and run to her. But luckily we both never died during our quests, which had us doing everything from killing dinosaurs, murdering Orcs, and escorting NPCs. Very nice.
So I'm getting WoW monday. Should I immediately get TBC on the 12th or what?It comes out on the 16th doesn't it?

Often this isn't your fault - other players have to understand not to go in with "all guns blazing" straight away. When I group with my tank, I tell the group not to attack until after I do a thunderclap - that gives me enough time to build aggro, and stop them from stealing it from me in case they get a bit over-enthusiastic. Or just ask them not to use high damage attacks/spells until you've got at least 3 sunders on the beastie.
Well I probably won't be on tonight. The Big game:bow

Thati's cool, but I meant more like are the quests something other than "go kill these things and come back". Go here, kill shit gets boring and it doesn't ever change much in the game. Two of my favorite quests are the one where you find a necklace in the lake for some little girl, and the Legend of Stalvan, because most of the quest is exploring or doing things other than repeatitive killing.
Today I finished up the Stockades quests and got to lv26. I was in a pretty good group. Although having a healer is a must, I'm beginning to realize that mages are VERY important in group play. Our mage was very good at pulling, thus we didn't have to constantly fight 3-5 enemies at the same time.
I think I'm getting better at tank although I noticed in the bigger battles I still get lost a bit. To me, you know when you're doing a good job at tank when you're the only person being healed. This was the case for most of the Stockade quests, which was a good thing.
After the Stockades I decided to go buy some new gear; I bought some very nice stuff yesterday, but I still needed chest armor. I saw some cool armor at the auction that was like 247; it also was +25 health and added +14 to my defense rating. I thought it was a steal so I spent most of my hard earned cash on it, took my other armor off, and FUCK
Realized the armor I bought was actually WORSE than the armor I had. My armor rating before: 1015. Now: 1009 wtf. What a waste :lol >:(
No. Hell I've never gotten anyPD there is a white stone with blue markings in your bag somewhere. Go to an inn in any city and talk to the innkeeper to have your stone set to there. When you click it, it will hearth you to whichever inn you have it set too.

Didn't you break up with Megafoo the first time around cause he played WoW too much?There’s a difference between playing casually every other day and running a guild and being on 10-14 hours a day. He quit playing when he realized it ruined our relationship before, he hasn’t played in about 6 months. He actually doesn’t want to start back up again, but I wanted to play with him on a casual basis.
I'm playing horde side on Khaz Modan in the expansion if you would like to try a PVE server.Thanks, but I would never play anything other than pvp.
:lol :lol :lol How can WoW ruin a relationship? Oh boy.It wasn't WoW, it could have been anything that took that much time out of a day.
Sounds like Megafool doesn't know how to prevent a relationship from being stale.
Dude you need to stop playing WoW so much. What do you do outside of playing WoW?
Didn't you break up with Megafoo the first time around cause he played WoW too much?Like it’s any of your business anyways.
Well guys, looks like I won't be playing with you much longer. When the xpac comes out I will be playing a horde blood elf. That was the only way Megafoo would play again is if we played Horde. And honestly I want to try it out, I have yet to play a Horde Character past level 7, and it will be nice not logging into Ironforge anymore. So we will probably both roll Mages.Horde leveling fucking sucks. I HATE barrens leveling.... The tauren place is pretty cool for the first few levels, and you'll just kill yourself by the time you hit 20 from leveling in the barrens....
I’m trying to think of cool names for us. There were two rogues on my old server named Zyk and Zya, so something similar. Any ideas?
I’ll update everyone on the server once I pick one.
I'm in the best guild on Khadgar (US) Alliance side.I don't even know how you stand raiding. I raided for like 2 weeks before I couldn't stand it anymore.... all of the people, people screwing up... it's just not worth it.
Scion. We're on Sapphiron. /flex
Sadly we won't see a KT kill before TBC.

Personally no matter what my race, I always went over to azeroth and did all of the undead shit instead just because it's way cooler. I guess you have that early ass instance at like level 14 you can do that's inside ogrimmar...

The game doesn't have more than 8 million subscribers because everyone shares the same opinion as you.
That's why I stopped playing on more than a casual level for the past 5-6 months. I mean, wtf, why? It's a waste of time, when the xpac comes out I can get green gear better than purples that took months of raiding to get. I used to be hardcore . But you really can play just casual with some of your friends, an hour or two a night every other night and have fun, just questing and pvp'ing and shit. It's a lot about community too.Since you're actually able to control it to 1-2 hours a night... which must mean ya don't instance much because 1-2 hours is like the wait-time for a raid.. lol, but as long as you can do that and have fun.. wow I salute you ;) :pirate
I know the amount of subscribers, and I know why they subscribe.... it's just annoying that I personally can sit here and still want to play, yet when I think about what I did most of the time in the game..... I start getting depressed. Weird eh?
SHUDDUP RACIST
Why the fuck are you using Limewire? That's like as insecure as anything dude.
Can you guys help out? My druid is now using daggers but I don't have an off-hand item yet. Where do I get one? Its for stat boosting, I assume.
I can get one from a quest, but are there many items like this? What are they called?
Guilds that are still doing MC and ZG probably.well when everybody starting putting in times and everything was unorganized initially, that's when the shit took forever.
I'm a drainy you dumpster slut. I hit level 10 before logging off last night. Drainy starting area is most sexcellent. I didn't want to stop playing. So I didn't.

What's their city like?
I'm having great difficulty deciding whether I want a male Blood Elf mage or a female Blood Elf rogue.
WHAT THE FUCK DO I DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I'm the only still playin on the server pretty much. If anyone still wants invite let me know.
I've been avoiding turning lvl 40, because I want my pvp gear, which means grinding ally losses. I can win WSG, but the Arathi is another story. I can never make enough for the fear trinket either. I love how Blizzard changed the pvp system without fixing it. I did see my first belf in BGs yesterday, a 39 Hunter. It was kind of disturbing.
Level 20 decimated the 2g I earned. I need a new stave BAD!
Wow PeeDee is only level 29? I bought WoW two weeks ago and my Paladin is level 26, my Druid level 23. And I spent a lot of time cooking and fishing, herbaling and alcheming with my Paladin.
Anyways. I NEED TO FIGURE OUT A GOOD NAME FOR MY FEMALE BLOOD ELF ROGUE!!!!

I use a dagger for my Druid. Much better.
Also how do you get the PvP Epic set or something for female Druids? How do you get those sets? Is it insanely hard and rare or is it somewhat difficult but doable when you're level 60-70?
I dunno, after solo-ing two 60s I sorta have the quest grind down to a science. I have a hunter I started last week a few days after I started my warrior at level 14 too.
Speaking of...well ill just add this. How are jewelcrafters making money. Im a miner, and i've been making tons of gold off BRONZE, motherfucking BRONZE. I've seen buyouts as high as 4 gold go. I usually undercut at 1.5 - 2 gold per stack and sell it rather quickly. Copper sells stupid fast too. Silver even faster.
Point being I see all the shit they make from the stacks and they sell it for so cheap I wonder where they actually make money. I mean, im making gobs of money for very little effort.
btw, did you get my mail?
Thanks to whiteacid for the gold.[
I did Mauradon for the first time on any character yesterday. Managed to get the only druid gear to drop and that was good. The only odd bit was that there was a Paladin and a Warrior in the group and I was asked to tank. I said I would, but the Warrior would be much better at it. It turns out the Warrior just didn't want to tank, which means he didn't want to have to carry a shield. So I did the tanking, but the warrior in Fury mode out-aggroed me most of the time.
Lol because rogue isn't overusedI hardly see any night elf rogues on this server.
Tanks use shields for better damage mitigation. In lower level dungeons you might not take enough damage for it to matter (and with gear at that level it might not make a difference). Later on, it's necessary unless you're extremely overgeared for the instance. The way you keep aggro despite low damage with your weapon is through smart use of your abilities. The shield block + revenge combo is your god, use it.
I solo all the time so fuck shields! ARMS FTW
its probably the easiest elite i've fought haha. CrabCake ALMOST solo'ed it. What boggles me is there is a level req of 19 on the quest and labels it as a group quest lol. Course my pet absorbs 40% of the dmg so it probably makes it look easy. I remember it being easy with my warrior tho.LOL OH MY GOD LAUGHABLE!
To be honest every 'boss' in draenei land is pretty laughable.
Following my posts around at 3am is actually pretty sad too.Did you lose your dick 20 years ago playing pong or something because god damn you get butt hurt.
Im telling ya, take up mining and get in on the mineral market. I make betweeen 1.5 - 3 gold per stack of BRONZE, and dont get me started on how fast my silver has been selling.
FUKKIN GEEZUSroll a mage
I need some help.
I've deleted my level 17 night elf rogue. This is the third time I've deleted my night elf.
I just can't take it. I can't be satisfied with another character anymore... there's always something that makes me just want to quit. Is this because it's not dependant on my class or race, but because it's my second character? I don't know... but I just want another character. You know, to switch a bit now and then.
Never thought about deleting my paladin for even a split sec. Akanthus rox. :-[
I took PD on a pvp trip to Hammerfall. I think I got him killed a lot, but the lad needed some HKs.
I want to be the best pvp mage ever. I think I can do it, I'm pretty damn good.
you can't ask them to stop since /say turns into gibberish between factions! nice try...nub!
Ok, I havent been a warrior long, so I wanna ask the ALL IMPORTANT QUESTION.You have to keep hamstring and piercing howl on them. Intercept if they get the range on you, which they will do by feigning death and laying a freezing trap. Intimidating shout the pet, hamstring always on the hunter, piercing howl (fury spec only) if he gets off hamstring. If a hunter can't get away from you he will not be able to kill you.
What in GODS name do I do against a ranged hunter? Is there anything? Aside from running away? Anyway 2 of my 4 bgs tonight were a lot of fun, but a couple of them were full of so many belf twinks with dumb wapanese names I wanted to barf. Im sorry but a level 29 pally should not be soaking 3 mages direct fire, thats dumb.
Wow you guys are pussies. My philosophy is that if they are flagged red then I kill it. If I happen to die then it just taught me how to play that class a little better.you can't ask them to stop since /say turns into gibberish between factions! nice try...nub!
Bah they know what I mean. Usually I bow whenever I see a horde because I know I'll get owned. Today I saw a horde shaman getting owned by an ogre so I saved him, and then bowed. Later when I was in Boulder'gash or whatever I was fighting an ogre and he helped me a bit. Badass.
Ruzbah gave me the idea
I couldn't believe the twinking on that fuckin' belf pally. Me and two gnome mages were spammin' arcane missles/fireblast like mad and she shrugged it all off. LAME. I wound up just rooting and sheeping her, but then her friends arrived. BOO.Paladins are the hardest class for me, they have tons of armor and seem to have an infinite mana supply. and their fucking shields piss me off!
When I ran Bloodpact my warlock in PVP I couldnt ever believe how many horde it took to down one alliance paladin. I suspect that a lot of alliance players moved to belf pallies for their crazy ass racial spells which makes them that much more annoying.It's called intercept to get in their range. I played a hunter to level 60 and got to Marshall in pvp. It's much harder to get away from warriors than that. Unless you are just completely obvlivious to your surrounding and don't see the hunter sniping away at you until its to late. Always be aware of your surrounding, when you see a hunter start moving towards them, there are other tricks too.
I also hate all those 'spits' and 'laughs' macros the idiots use when they attack you. I mean grow up.
WhiteAicd: Yeah ive learned the value of hamstring big time. It just seems like if I dont get the jump on a hunter with a flank im screwed. Its not like a caster of some sort vs a rogue, I mean a warrior vs ranged hunter the hunter in most cases will never be able to even touch the ranged hunter.
That being said maybe its better to just run and try to flank a minute or two later when they're distracted. They have speed, range, and a pet on their side tho :/
Additionally im talking RANGED hunters, not the weird melee hunters or the pet focused hunters. Im talking about the hunters with the range boost talent, the improved aspect of hawk, the improved concussive blast. At range they attack WITH RANGE, they dont get close enough for a hamstring.
If for some reason I can get close enough to hamstring I do, and ignore the pet cause well, wtf they absorb like 40% dmg vs their level half the time and have stupid resistances, no point in focusing on them almost ever. Handled hunters the same way as a lock except I had RANGE back then and all my wonderful DoTs.
SO if you cant give me better advice other than 'hamstring the guy yards away from you stunning you with a gajillion arrows' then maybe U sux lol. ;P
I need a good name for my new human female rogue...Ming
Intercept Range vs Ranged Hunter firing range is a pretty big difference. I intercept lots, but with the right talent a range hunter gains 12 yards on a range thats already greater than intercept.What level is your warrior?
25oh geez, Warriors are pretty weak at the low levels, and hunters are pretty tough, just wait till you get higher. Also warriors depend ALOT on armor and gear, it's pretty easy to pick you off at this level
Well at level 50 youre starting to get close to all that new outland shit. The quests youre on now are the old quests, all the expansion quests are quite a bit better.
Phoenix, since we're the only two still playing, I think I'm disbanding the guild and merging it with people I play with. I'm waiting to see if you want to join the other guild too, because it would be lame to leave you in the guild alone. The other guild has more players, so you might get more groups.

I just did Alterac Valley for the first time. What the hell does that bg have to do with pvp? I hardly fouhgt Horde. I just followed groups and healed, then watch the alliance screw up at the end.Mostly for the reputation awards you get.

2H rox ftw crit fantastical! I love the Arms tree :D
Just spam hamstring till they dodge then whip out an improved overpower + impale = MEGA DAMAGE NEVAR MISS OMG
I know, but I barely group and in BG Warriors pretty much stand alone, so im all about DPS and crippling.
PD I'd suggest you go with a damage weapon when you solo and save the shield and 1h for dungeons. You take more damage minus the shield, but you kill faster as well, so it balances out when you're just soloing/grinding.
PD: I got two levels to 60 without high level instances. No big :):o
I actually take very little REAL damage while solo-ing since I crit so often and so hard.
I love Scarlet Monastery. It's relatively short (winged dungeons!), easy, and the loot is good.Isn't Monastary in game? Or they may have changed it.
why the fuck would you play on a RP server? if you play on anything but a PVP realm you're a panzy.
Do you mean it's the worst place because it's a known place where people get ganked or are you saying that it's a bad spot to gank if you want to gank?What I meant was that if you are a pussy and cry when you get ganked it's the worst place for ganking. If you are like me and kill on sight then it's the best.

i'll post a video of me tanking rag back when it was actually cool in this old guild i used to run. Hopefully it will give you some inspiration to not only level your toon but a better understanding why the warrior is the best class in the game. Your whole guild looks up to you. you control the fights. Granted i don't know how this will play out in the BC because around the time AQ40 and Naxx came out the role of the "main tank" isn't what it used to be in MC/BWL. also shows why 40 man raiding in world of warcraft is the most intense gaming experience i've had in my 24 years of being a gamer.:bow
People talk so much shit about wow, and how it's a waste of time, but they've never experienced the rush of leading 40 people to conquer something in a video game.

Foo: I just got intercept but im kinda at a loss as to how it should be use. Im used to charge that doesnt require rage to use, and stance dancing without the talent from prot tree fucks with my rage gain bad. Whats a good way for an Arms spec to use zerk stance?
Some people are arguing that its useful in PVE but I cant really see how as most warriors in PVE are busy trying to generate some actual threat.
Foo: Does it seem ok that ill be primarily arms spec, and only going up to piercing howl in fury tree? Are there specific talents in the fury tree I should aim for aside from Cruelty and Piercing Howl?
I currently spam hamstring because its a cheap move that forces them into dodges. Rend has the same cost, is that as easy to dodge?
Now that I have zerker stance should I be spending more time in it even IF im arms spec?
haha, well I just mean wearing the paladin down. I havent really met a Paladin (yet) that can give me a run for my money DPS wise but he always bubbles and runs and does a full heal then fights again, which STILL isnt a problem but I wish there was a way to freaking kill a paladin faster. Battlegrounds still has groups of 3 people trying to kill one paladin who isnt even fighting back, just bubbling and healing and chugging potions lol.

Druids were also completely OPed, being better healers than priests and better tanks than Warriors. IMO as long as Druids are where they were pre TBC things are ok with the world.
A class shouldnt make two other classes completely useless ;-)
a little OP? lol
I think the changes are big, I think the amount of changes goes against blizzards statement that they wouldn't be doing complete class reviews and I think Druids should get a free respec, but Warriors NEED to be Warriors or wtf are we? Feral druids as they were caused Warriors to be IGNORED in PVE
Warriors are never OP they're just in the middle or the bottom ;-)
The rage normalization equation has been adjusted to grant more rage.
The typical player should see an increase of 15% to 20% in their
rage generation.
The typical druid will lose a great deal of rage because a great deal of a druids rage came from crit on swipes. Expect roughly 40% of your current rage.
- "Savage Fury" no longer affects "Mangle (Bear)".
- "Savage Fury" no longer applies to "Maul" or "Swipe".
This is what kills the druid rage, adding the rage will help those protection warriors get rage, which is great for them. Imagine your rage as slightly better than a protection warriors because that is what we will now be getting as rage.
- "Dire Bear Form" now grants 25% increased stamina instead of 25%
increased health. In addition, the armor bonus has been reduced from
450% to 400%.
Kiss a few k hp goodbye.
Most druids will lose around 2k armor. The ones near the cap will lose about 5k armor. if you have decent gear you can probably just subtract about 3k from your current armor total.
- The multiplier on base weapon damage for "Mangle (Bear)" ability has
been changed from 130% to 100%. In addition, the bonus damage has
been reduced by the same ratio.
Subtract 33% from your current Mangles.
- The critical damage bonus on "Predatory Instincts" reduced from
3/6/9/12/15% to 2/4/6/8/10%.
Subtract 5% from your current crit totals (even cats). Also, subtract 38% from your current Mangles, thats your new total.
- "Improved Leader of the Pack" can no longer get critical heals.
so our less rage, less swipe bears get even less hp back, which was already nurfed by having less HP.
So in essence..
Druids lose
a ton of rage
a ton of HP
a ton of armor
a ton of damage
some hp regin on leader of the pack.
100% every single aspect of druids being a tank was nurfed. Good druids will still be good druids and bad ones will still be bad ones. Bottom line fact is, this was a huge nurf.
It's not worthless.
Arathi Basin doesnt get interesting until 40s when people have mounts.
A nice trick I have learned is if their pet is near them when charging hit challenging shout to force the pet to break the ice trap.
I got owned by a level 33 blood elf paladin today; I'm lv36. That pissed me off so much that I went and bought a good 2H axe which I'll now using for solo'ing; I'll use the shield/weak ass 1H axe for groups.

Dude, just do your warrior quest for that hurricane axe!
My paladin is level 41, miss negative nancy. And it's boring total.
I can't stand little things in games that are just plain WRONG. When I had a long hair night elf, and I have a 2H sword, the sword would go right into my hair. That's just fucking wrong, man. It's almost like a bug.
You certainly seem a bit agitated over the fact that I deleted my character... but whatever. I canceled my WoW subscription because I'm bored by it. I'm gonna play some Guild Wars. I don't think I'll ever get back in WoW because I've already seen so much of the world already.

I guess there have been drastic changes to Guild Wars since I left it. The whole Ender's Game thing where groups run at each other and "PVP" not only got boring extremely fast (CTF oh I mean Capture the Relic thing was poorly designed with horrible maps) but it's also what the PVP system in WoW has become; Duels. Duels with groups! JAWESOME!
Considering that the Arena system wasn't implemented back then, I'll agree that GW was slightly different from WoW, otherwise I saw little difference. Oh, it was prettier. And really Asian. And the default UI sucked.

I don't know how to show you as you seem to have missed it all. The pvp is miles beyond WoW. At this point I'm ready to declare WSG the only worthwhile and real wow pvp to partake in. Guild Wars has Guild vs Guild, which gets to be so intense that I actually quit it, then theres the tournament/tombs/heroes ascent(keeps changing name) that is a 6v6/8v8(keeps changing too =/) ladder tournament with different maps and victory scenarios, then theres random, team and challenge arena. There's Hero Battles that allow you to bring Heroes(self customized and controllable AI bots) and control tiny nodes for points and kills for points. There's also alliance battle which is 12 v 12 node control battle with the nodes granting defense or attack boost, and the middle node granting the holder a dragon.
But outside of the variations of pvp, its just that the gameplay and battle system is so much better it makes any form of the pvp better. And there's balance, quick fixes and constant tweaking. Everything has a counter and you can't 'one shot' anyone.
As for how it's different than WoW, well it's a just totally different idea from WoW. You build your WoW character through a long leveling process and then through gear and stats, but in the end you play the character pretty much like everyone else does and you hope for big crits. GW is a short leveling process, everyone can easily get the same armor and armor stats, but you really build your character through attributes, skill selection and how you play. Imagine WoW if pvp rewards were easy to get and there were far more talent trees and your talent selection meant everything. Now speed up WoW by about 1000%. One of the differences I always saw between the games is that in WoW a lot of characters look different from each other, but they play the same. In Guild Wars all the characters look the same, every necro looks like the next necro, but they play so diferently. There's four Necromancer attribute lines. You can play the blood attribute line in four different ways at least. You can be a blood spiker, a degen siphoner, an 'Order' Necro that buffs everyone, or a self sacrificing energy battery for your teammates. That is just one of the attribute lines for one class. You then also have the two class system which adds even more combinations. In comparison, the wow Warlock class which is similiar to a Necro has about 3 ways to play it and they all mostly use the same skills.
but what I find interesting is that you don't point out how much of an incessant grind WoW becomes at higher levels. Does GW not do this? Is it the equivalent of an RPG Battlefield in which you just put a little time into it and then pick it up whenever you feel like messing around?
you people need to stop playing gay ass alliance.
you people need to stop playing gay ass alliance.honestly... whoever has the patience to do the barrens deserves the use as much war stomp as he wants. I could level 7 alliance guys to 60, but after just my 2nd horde char i was just too bored. tauren bluff owns though, even if it's for 5 levels
Get the staff to level with. There are plenty of good healing staves and maces to choose from in level 70 instances. I think the mace from Shattered Halls (227 healing, 12 sta, 11 int, 8mp5) dropped 3x in a row when we were grinding for rep with Thrallmar a few days ago.
I ran Heroic Mechanar and Ramparts tonight. Hopefully Kara tomorrow but it depends on people logging in.
I can't believe you rolled on the healing mace off Whitemane in SM, PD. You really need to learn itemization.:(
Once you find a good group of players, keep up with them. I get good groups because 1. I can heal, 2. I've kept up with the same list of players for 30 levels.

PD.. umm.. being honored is enough to get your mount. you just need 90g total. Reputation means nothing with getting your regular mount (except for the 10% cost reduction for being honored).
Im about to pay for my mount with Bronze bar's on Auction :D, stack of 20 could go for at most 8-10g :lol I didnt even need to mine much either...I simply got copper,tin ore or bars on auction for cheap then made the bronze myself, ive got about 150 gold at lvl 34, Im thinking I might buy a set of plate armor for when I hit 40.

Holy shit wtf? Wow the economy on my server sucks; I get like 60-90s for that.
Do you ever have trouble finding ore veins since they're so many people on your server? I would imagine lots of people would wind up mining before you get there
You don't lose anything when your subscription runs out, just access until you pay again.
I just made a riding crop (omg primal might you cost me so) and discovered it doesn't improve druid flight form speed at all. So basically I'll only be using my riding crop outside of Outlands. Luhame.
I keep considering respeccing, but I don't know how. Tree of Life is just really gimped and over-specialized. The lack of utility and healing touch hurts once you start hitting the 70s dungeons. The hots are great covers, but it can not handle the huge damage increase that suddenly jumps in at the 70 point. I tried The Mechanar, and it pretty much seemed like if I wasn't a priest with prayer of mending, then my party wasn't surviving. One of my problem's with WoW is how formulaic it becomes that it starts to boil down to the stoic priest, warrior, mage and rogue required setup.
The thing is, I got nothing I want to respec to. I don't want to go balance, and I don't want to go feral as I have setup all my gear around resto and would have to go back and grab all the feralish gear I missed. Plus, theres already feral and balance druids. Being the one and only resto druid is my niche, but it is a niche for a reason.. it fucking sucks at the end. The only other option is the hybrid healer, but it seems so stupid that a character with more balance points would be a better healer than a character with more resto points. The third option is going entirely resto which is like giving up on ever doing anything solo because you can't do shit but heal that way.The whole problem is the heals aren't big enough unless you use the ultra slow healing touch and secondly, you're the squishiest thing around without mana shield or inner fire to buff you up. There's like an 80 armor point difference between leather caster and cloth caster at level 70, but a 200 armor difference between leather caster and mail caster. If I get any aggro, I just die. If I switch to bear, then I can't heal. If I keep switching in and out of forms because Tree is so gimped and caster form is so sqishy then I am wasting a ton of mana.
So it's basically talent tree and armor that makes Druid healing a pain. I have no flash heal or lesser healign wave, no bubble, no fade or aggro protection. For all the bitching about feral, the resto tree was weak to begin with and now it has feral to join it's ranks. Most druids I see are Balance now, which is like a battlemage who will be skipped over for a mage or shaman anyday for the mage's aoe + crowd control and the shamans totems. Though moonkin is fine for pvp as you have all that damn armor and can single target nuke things down.
Right now I have most of my points in arms, although recently I've been putting some in protection. Basically there are a couple important things in protec that I've been building up: the one proficiency that allows me to keep more rage after changing stances, and another that increases my defense rating.
I've been changing stances whiling tanking much more recently. Last night while tanking SM I would basically start in Basic by charing an enemy, then I use Demoralizing Shout. After that I switch to Defense stance and start using Taunt to keep attention, all while sundering as much armor as possible. And when I can't take all the arrgo I'll disarm the enemies that are fighting my group members. Also I use Revenge whenever I can; supposedly using Shield Bash is a good way to set up Revenge, but it doesn't work that way lol. I just use the bash on magic users to take them out of the picture for 6 seconds.
I'm really tired of dealing with beggers. Every non-flist whisper ends in "can you give me gold?" or "can you run me through ___?" I especially dislike that our guild is suddenly full of low levels who constantly bug me. I like helping people, but this goes beyond lending a hand. It's lke I'm adopting invalids. This is PD's first WoW charactter and he's far more self-suffecient and capable than a lot of these idiots. I don't even know who invited them to our guild or where they come from. My favorites are the one who start off asking "How did you get to 70?" and I say "By soloing and doing things myself" and their response is "kk will you run me thru gnomer i need dagger".:lol
I swear, I've had people spend a gold I lend them in a day at level 8. What are they even buying?
Didn't I tell you I quit WoW?
I could give a fuck about your armor rating, bro. >:(
I have a level 70 Undead Rogue, a level 31 Belf Paladin and a level 23 Belf Mage, all on Deathwing. If anyone is gonna start a new toon, my character names are:
Bellamuerte
Bellarosa
Aerilis.
Yeah, the mage forum talked me out of the frost/ice armor talent buff and convinced me to go as clearcasting in arcane then max out fire instead of dicking around with ice since fire mages almost never REALLY use ice. I guess fire/ice mages are pretty durable but lose a lot of DPS potential. Most mages argue that fire in end game PVP still isnt viable..in that you can't be one of the best. A good player can still do OK with fire spec, but not nearly as well as the usual ice/arcane builds.
Oh well ill give it a go anyway ;-)
Ive never been to the outlands. I have a level 60 character on Gilneas but like most of my early characters he's kinda busted. Each new character I make tends to be more thought out than the last in terms of professions, completed quests, equipment, and talent build.
Still trying to sell my stupid account ::)what character/class/race do you have? and what server? what level? how much are you asking?
Edit: cub your UI is weird :o
My healing and some of my utility spells were tied to clique, a mod that allowed me to use modifier keys and click on a unit frame to cast a spell. I put important fight specific macros / spells on the 1-4 keys, but clicked while attacking (which was rare). edit: You can see my Vashj hotkeys above.It's pretty clear when they're out of range since the square will be all darkish, and I've done some heavy raiding with Grid and I never had a problem with debuffs. Probably just takes some getting used to. It doesn't show mana though which is a shame.
Grid would reduce the size of my raid frames but I didn't like them that small and sRaidFrames had a few features that I loved like a very clear indicator when people were out of range, letting me know when a tank used last stand or shield wall, and it would display multiple debuffs that I could cleanse instead of just one. I tried Grid and wanted to like it but it just didn't work for me.
I didn't think the range check indicator was clear enough. The only thing that I missed by not having grid was incoming heals and not many other people were using grid so it was kind of useless.I don't know, personally I never had any problems seeing who's out of range really.
Damn. Do you click all the spells or use hotkeys?I pretty much bind all of my spells and abilities except for ones that I rarely use. I have all the keys on the left side of my keyboard bound plus shift+those keys. It makes game play so much easier.
I put my most important spells in the 1-4 keys. So taunt, sunder, shield block, and revenge are the top 4. Most of my instant shouts and rage generate spell are in the top right of the screen
Mouseover sunder: cc breaking early? - this macro will sunder the mob your mouse pointer is over without losing your current target (the mob must still be in melee range, of course). It also checks if the target is actually hostile and alive before doing this.
#show Sunder Armor
/cast [target=mouseover, harm, nodead] [] Sunder Armor
#show Sunder Armor
/cast [target=mouseover, harm, nodead] Sunder Armor
This macro will sunder the mob your mouse pointer is over without losing your current target (the mob must still be in melee range, of course). It also checks if the target is actually hostile and alive before doing this. Theoretically, since Sunder Armor does not do any damage, it should even be possible with this macro to sunder a sheeped or shackled mob without breaking sheep or shackle, though I haven't tried this yet.
The same macro can of course be used with other instant abilities (Revenge, Shield Bash, Shield Slam, Concussion Blow, Disarm) by simply replacing Sunder Armor in the macro text with a different ability. Note that Concussion Blow does not generate any threat, but may still be useful for damage mitigation purposes

I used macros to play dressup only. It was fun. Lol. :-[Sorry to break it to you, but there was no reason to make all those macros :(
It was cool. I'm very stylish like that. I did this the first time in a different MMORPG I played before WoW was out, called Lineage 2. I was walking around with my brandished sword and shield and heavy armor and I was like "WTF is this shit. Real warriors don't constantly walk around in their gear like this". So I bought some awesome mage armor. The game is a shit standard Korean grindfest game but the designs of some of the mage armors completely floor me. So I was extremely stylish like that, as a warrior, walkin' around in some decent fucking clothes like a PIMP. I simply caried this over tradition to World of Warcraft. I gotta say in Lineage 2 it was easier to switch around equipment, but in World of Warcraft it was possible too, using macros that I had to make myself.
Totally worth it. It's really fun.
So what are the must-have mods?Depends on what you're doing and what you're playing. I really don't use much more than I have to, and as a Hunter I don't need much. Some people are really anal about their mods too. The more popular are Auctioneer, SWStats, BigWigs (or DeadlyBossMods if you like buggy bars), Omen Threat Meter, Item Rack, Atlas Loot, Natur EnemyCastBar, Gatherer, SuperInspect, CT_RaidAssist (I guess),and Cartographer. Then there's still plenty more to fit in for whatever class you're playing. Curse-Gaming is probably one of the better sources for most mods.
Oh. Reading comprehension ftw.Sorry to break it to you, but there was no reason to make all those macros :(

Makes life so much easier for a variety of classes, most notably warriors. And people who like to walk around naked sometimes.
Doesn't matter, I quit WoW. Shit probably didn't even existed when I was still playin'. BITCH.

I'm going to save and post this screen for whenever you talk of girl difficultys:)
The ESRB rating on some World of Warcraft servers is about to change during gameplay in a big way. Blizzard announced that they will be releasing several new ERP “Erotic Roleplay” and ERP-PvP “Erotic Roleplaying Player Versus Player” realms that cater to the adult audience in World of Warcraft that’s more comfortable carrying on their sex life in a virtual world than in the real world.
Several old realms will be converted to the new ruleset to test the waters before new servers are opened. Ravenholdt, the server at the center of the ERP debate, will be the first to operate under the new ruleset. Blizzard stated in a blue post that they felt it would be better to try this new ruleset on a server that already has a large existing ERP population. They also hope that the new rules will attract more people to the server, which until now has been suffering from a low population made up mostly of horny blood elves.
That can't be real. :o
I was using a raid mod for healing that highlighted who was taking damage, who had threat and worked really well. I forget the name though!
The experience changes in 2.3 are badass. My current character:
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Muradin&n=Vynitha
I've never raided and i've had the game forever. PVP and 5 mans woo :)
gonna try this shadow priest pve build. thoughts? http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=bVMhzoZbZxMgtMtRhtVo
what about blackout versus spirit tap
are you guys all on the same server
Im a loner so dont join my server. I cant handle groups cause they are so damned inefficient at quests and leveling up. I only get a pug when I absolutely have to.
S3 weapons, 1850AP
2.3.2 Damage Per 60 Energy (SS/Hemo extrapolated into 60 energy, base crit not considered):
41 Combat Sinister Strike: 1194
30 Sub Hemo (With Debuff) 1175
41 Sub Hemo (With Debuff): 1275
41 Sub Backstab: 1519 (1368 against 400 resilience as +30% crit chance is heavily penalized by -20% damage from 400 resilience)
Opportunity Mutilate (poisoned): 1470
DW Mutilate (poisoned): 1455
Shadowstep dagger is a lot of fun to play, the numbers are jaw dropping especially after you played AR/prep for so long. The problem? Your burst is going to rely on vanish -> shadowstep ambush. With premed->CS->EA, work into a full energy KS then vanish -> shadowstep ambush -> prep -> vanish -> shadowstep ambush again is massive damage. This is obviously a devastating combo for 1v1, but in arena? We all know how reliable vanish is (not!), and to make it worse, it is one of the few root breakers we have. A big part of AR/prep rogue's success is that we can do decent damage even if a mace warrior is all over us like Jared "Noktyn" Fogle over a box of donuts. Another big issue with shadowstep dagger is the hemo debuff itself is equivalent of 200AP for every physical DPS on your team, keeping this debuff up while having enough energy to backstab is almost impossible.
I was at 13 and alone.
Where do you trigger the instance in alliance land PD?
AV is a lot of fun, its kinda broken right now in favor of Alliance, but oh well, ill just switch to AB when AV Weekend is over
RH rush is a major problem right now. Its not that you CANT defend against it, it's that Alliance screams Boycott the minute you start thinking about it because a D heavy RH game = LONG and Alliance loses their 70% chance of winning and its back to whether or not they can outplay Horde in a corner, and in most cases they cant because the entrance to the inner keep IS the best chokepoint on the map.
An interesting thread on the situation. AV weekend REALLY brought the issue to the front:
http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=4032678737&sid=1&pageNo=1
i did some heavy wow playing this weekend and did Sunken Temple and Zul Far twice (the first time i didn't have the Hunter specific quest queued up).
the first Temple run was amazingly good. the second run was an absolute nightmare. my cat was used to off tank and most of time was spent trying to keep our healer alive because he would heal when it wasn't nessecary and draw all aggro to him causing pure pain and lots of death because our tank couldn't listen to directions.
i'm in winterspring now and am currently the highest level i've reached playing wow since beta. i always got bored in the 30s or 40s and would roll new characters

You're not really missing too much, WoW PvP is awful and has been ever since the game came out. The game isn't really built for it, and it's popular despite its terrible design because the alternative choices in the genre are even worse at this point.Sounds like someone is stuck at 1600.
ew, raiding. epic gear from raiding is the REAL welfare epics, since most raiders are carebeared through most instances by the 10% of their guilds that are actually good at the game.
raiding is for no-life chumpos. it's for the persistent, not the skilled.
Pssh, there's no shame in having welfare epics. In reality the only big upgrades on gear from season to season are the weapons. The difference from s1->s2 in stats is otherwise negligible. The same goes for s2->s3 although slightly less due to the increased armor and the ignore armor.
Yeah, unfortunately forcing classes into specs is one way Blizzard tries to keep arena balanced. They are more able to smooth things out if they know which specs are going to be played at the top end of the competition. Frost is infinitely more utilized in arena than POM/Pyro, especially now that everyone is walking around with upwards of 10k HP and 300 resilience with the s1 so easily accessible. Same with SL/SL being extremely advantageous to, say, destruction.
Again though, that's not to say that you can't reach a high rating with those specs. It will just be much harder and you end up depending a lot on your team set up if you are speccing the "weaker" variation for arena.
It seems like Blizzard likes to switch things up every year or so. And not just a few changes here or there. Looking at how PVP now contrasts to pre-BC, or even PVE (in terms of speccing and playstyle) you can see that they purposely shift what is the more favored to keep players supplied with as much of that fresh content feeling as they can. Ambush/backstab rogues are almost nonexistent in arena now, right along with fire mages, destro locks, and so on.
Hell, if anyone had told me when I was doing BWL that the most viable raiding spec for most hunters in BC would be (by a mile) Beast Mastery I would have loled at them and told them to stop trolling and get back to EQ.
lol do people hit on your character MAF? I did BF last night with this female mage and our DUMBASS hunter wouldn't stop making suspect comments to her.
There's nothing worse than a hunter who - no matter how many times you tell him you're the puller - randomly shoots mobs before the healers/casters have enough mana to do anything. Jeez what a jerk
hell if I see a horde player in trouble against some PvE mob I always help.
Yeah well most Alliance players are like 12 or something. rite LOL *WoW forums tm*it seems that way
yeah I used to respect undead players a lot more than I do now :(:punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch :punch
Paladin leveling is great until you hit level 40. I flew through levels until that point thanks to good DPS (good to your low-30s, then http://www.wowhead.com/?item=870 pulled me to the early 40s where things got bad) and great survivability. After that you need a partner or you'll start to hate the character.
I think most every class hits a wall of suck at 40, except Shaman and Shadow priest which hits pwn city at that point.
so to tank you should play a druid, essentially?
The 4 piece for resto t6 is proof of that. It's like Blizzard is taunting them.so to tank you should play a druid, essentially?
Druids, Blizzard and endgame don't mix well.
Lvl 19 Rogue advice plz.
Hey all reading this thread got me to sign up and post since I am generally a lurker.
PD grats on leveling through with a Prot spec war. That is difficult to do, I know with mine I leveled to 70 dps then switched over to Prot. Though I am currently farming some pvp gear in dps spec again. Wanted to comment on your Prot build. Here is a build I use for 5 mans and Kara level stuff.
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=Li0cZVZbEtoIMzcxst
The biggest thing I see in your build is Iron Will, Anger Management and Deep Wounds are wasted points. For Iron Will, most dungeon stuff, particularly bosses you cannot resist their stuns or charms. On trash those effects are either very temporary or will generally not target you. Anger Managements gains are very minimal in the full scheme of things and to spend the extra points to get to it are not worth it. Deep wounds is a nice dot for dps, but your crit chance is so low because you don't have cruelty that the benefits are not really that great.
Get cruelty. Nothing generates aggro like crits from shield slam and devastate. Imp def stance is good really in raid situations, but for 5 man stuff it is really not all that useful. I like the rage cost reductions to sunder armor/devastate as well since deviate will be in your rotation of abilities used. The rage cost reduction to heroic strike is nice as well since it is a good way to spend rage if you have plenty, generates higher threat and is not on the global cooldown.
If you decide to go down the PVP route I would recommend not doing it as prot spec. It can be done, and you will be hard to kill, but it starts to get frustrating. My current spec is fun for PVP if you have a good 2 hander.
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Kilrogg&n=Lemmywinks
I will say though you will have all the gear you could ever want if you stay prot. If you are a solid tank you will have opportunities to group and do 5 mans, heroics and 10 man stuff with few issues ever getting a group.
If you are tanking a dungeon you should be the group leader. You set the kill order and the cc targets and you initiate all actions. Initial aggro from a pull is key to you keeping it. If a hunter is not pulling to you with misdirect, but rather just pulling, throw that fool out of your group and get a replacement. All that leads to is frustration and multiple wipes.
Last advice I have to give is this. Get rid of the damage meter, it will just make you crazy. Measure your success as a tank on people not getting smoked, not on the amount of dmg you or they take. If you want to run a meter run a Threat meter like Omen. This will show not only if you are generating threat fast enough and sustaining it, but if people are pulling it off you by playing like fools. Your job is to generate aggro their job is to not pull it. My main is a rogue and the biggest thing any dps class has to learn is how to control their aggro so they don't needlessly die. The only people you need to worry about with aggro should be healers on multiple pulls.

Are you twinking a 19 rogue, or just getting started?
As a prot warrior what do you often do when first engaging a mob? I run in and throw down a thunderclap, then start Devastating each mob with the help of a cool tab macro. And at the same time I constantly shield block, setting up Revenge for use.

Do they stack? I've always been curious. Its also amazing how few people have them in AB/AV/EotS. I mean you can still swap it out for insignia once you get to where youre going.
Pretty sure the only cost during prep time in bg is the reagent, which is a WHOLE 26 SILVAR NO NOES! I seriously need those tomes, ill have to get some gold and camp AH for them. Im BUYING my own food and water right now lol.Is there really any use for food? I use bandages and free potions from mah guildies to heal.
Bandages require a high first aid level, which I havent bothered with, and potions for my level are $$$. Food is cheaper.
The riding crop works with flying mounts. If people do not own and use one they are rather foolish.
Alterac Valley will see a few very significant improvements in the next patch and we wanted to share the details of what we have planned.
The first change will be to move the Horde's starting tunnel back to a more equal distance from the first objectives, which will help evenly distance the starting points for each side across the terrain when the battle commences.
In addition, the General and Warmasters for each faction will receive a stacking buff from each other that boosts their health and damage. The more of them that are still in the battleground, the more dangerous they will all be. This will put a greater focus on destroying (and defending!) the towers that remove the Warmasters as players work toward defeating the appropriate General and conquering the land.
Also Balinda Stonehearth has been studying her spellbooks to become a more challenging opponent to the Horde and will do more damage with her spells. The additional health we recently added to Balinda and General Vanndar Stormpike will no longer be needed with these improvements and will be changed back to their previous amounts with the patch.
With these improvements teamwork and strategy will be more important than ever from beginning to end as the Alliance and Horde battle for victory in Alterac Valley. We'll see you on the battlefield.
Wha?! Horde can barely keep up in a footrace as it is! This means we'll see ninjas at RH or a zerg at RH before we even get halfway done with bal. Booooo.
I do think the Balinda change in the next patch is more thought out than the hp buff tho.
While I dont agree this will fix the fundamental problem with Alliance capping a GY right next to drek within 5 minutes without any elite npcs nearby to help stop them, it does look like they put one whole person on the issue.
Not sure what im going to do with all the remaining cards tho, I have no interest in the game. Anyone here play it?
Its impossible to find places that sell WoW TCG tho.
I wanna get my 25 lock up to 70 for Northrend, I'm on Black Dragonflight, you should be too, let's do it, come onyou're about to go to france!
I'm a sexy belf
i'm trying to rush a sexy belf shadowpriest up through the ranks for northrend myself, just did 26-30 this weekend and may even make 31!
man, though, the econ on my server is borked. good lvl30 eq is priced for twinks in the 5-40g range :'(
PVP rox f u :(
do you have a pci-x or agp slot, pd
:( I like fireblasting other players more than distributing water :(:lol
do you have a pci-x or agp slot, pd
Yup
PCI Express (PCIe x16) slot available
if i ain't using it, what's the point of hoarding it
Nice. I've got like 250g now; I recently spent 200g+ on fel iron; I'm getting my blacksmithing skills up, but I'm sort of bummed that a lot of the stuff I'll be able to make binds once I make it - so I won't be able to sell it. MEHAt least you're not an engineer. Nearly everything I make is not really marketable. The only major exception is guns.
there's two vendors in the scryers selling full sets of pve gear
of course warriors/rogues will benefit from inscription
spells/abilities
I'm gonna have to see how this works...is it a permanent enchant or something? If so, that'd be kind of cool...but getting a -5 sec to intercept cooldown or +10% bleed damage on rend doesn't sound nearly as useful as the improvement I imagine casters are going to get.
That's just my speculation though. Maybe I'll start playing this again this weekend.
I've always wondered about that gear in Shattrath as well. The only way I could ever get good gear was through PVP since I don't really have anyone to play with and I don't want to hold anyone back in a PUG.
:(
I'm on the horde in the Ysera server. Maji is (sorta) there too, but he never levels anyone past 21.
Maybe I'll make an alt sometime. How often do you play your alt and what classes are they at Muradin? I'm a warrior.
FA: Me and Etoilet are on Ravenholdt (allies), and Drinky/MAF/my alt are on Muradin (horde)
there's two vendors in the scryers selling full sets of pve gear
This is the Tier 4 and Tier 5 gear that you can get for doing 10 and 25 man raids.
I'm trying to get Maji back into the game and I wish I could play with some people here...but I'm destined to only have PVP purples and Quest Reward blues & greens.
ewww :-\

That's my character, but it hasn't updated in forever. I actually have the other PVP 1 handed weapon too instead of Stellaris.
I didn't really like using slow weapons when dual wielding since I don't really have a high hit rate and I miss pretty often. This is pretty much a PVE build, though I only did go fury for the last 2-3 weeks of playing (quit again in Nov/Dec).
Since I haven't been able to raid at all, I mostly rely on whatever I can get in quests/AH/PVP, and the best one-handers were the gladiator weapons. The main hand is pretty slow if I remember, like 2.7secs per hit.
If I hadn't quit, I would've put the points in enrage and flurry for sure. That was totally a sing against god lol. I'd probably not use the Iron Will, and instead keep my points in Heroic/Thunder clap, as those are two abilities I find myself using almost every battle. Heroic Strike is a pretty good rage dump and outside of raiding or PVP I rarely get stunned or charmed.
And yeah, if doing PVP, dual wielding is worthless. Since everyone's always stunning/freezing/slowing me down and running, I really rely on the quick burst damage of a meaty two-hander. I only have a crappy Crystalforged War Axe though :-\
PD, what class are you on Marudin? You should play there more! Maji should be coming over too.
there's two vendors in the scryers selling full sets of pve gear
As for my Druid...does anyone have experience on them here? I know I have to do a few things to get my bear form, but I'm not sure what all yet. I've put my 3 talent points into improving Mark of the Wild, but at this early level that seems like a waste. A 21% improvement on +50 armor and + 2 stats only improves armor rating by like 12-13 points and doesn't add to the stats at all.
Did you get to lvl 39 from lvl 1 since last Monday?
Cubicle: What path are you going for your mage? Elemental/Deep Fire Scorch+Fireblast makes wands useless and grinding pretty stupid fast.

we need a "it's AV weekend WHAT DID YOU BUY" thread. I got some digusting amount of honor because alliance always wins on the Nightfall cluster and my wife and I decided that the family that catasses together on a friday night stays together.
I have enough honor for the following now, just need EOTS marks which is Bad News Bears since Alliance never wins that BG on my server:
Vindicator's Plate Greaves (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33812)
Vindicator's Band of Triumph (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33919)
Next up getting the bracers.
I also am friendly with the Netherwing duders in SMV, so my wife and I are doing the daily quests there for CASH MONEY and eventually get a dragon.
We did Karazhan this weekend, got the shield off nightbane and the 2.4 badge gear for tanks is SMOKIN' so I am going to start stockpiling now. 10 man raids aren't nearly as awful as the old 40 man stuff, though I did one 25 man (Gruul's Lair) and I swear I'll never step foot in those things again, no matter how much free loot gets shoved in my face.
I run auctioneer and use it to save time listing the stuff I gather (I mine/skin as my two tradeskills) and to ensure that whatever I buy is decently priced. Get aucitioneer advanced, it's a ton better.
As for the rest of my UI, off the top of my head:
oRA2, ag UnitFrames, Capping (shows timers for AB/AV tower/flag caps) , Bigwigs+Littlewigs (for 5 man boss warnings), Omen, Bartender 3, Autobar, CooldownCount, Parrot, FuBar+3 million plugins, Cartographer+Data+Routes for sick mining/herb money, Baggins, EkBuffBars, and some other crap I don't remember. I'll post a screenie later.

I'm leveling frost. I like the control over a battle it gives me and the damage with 3/3 frostbite, 5/5 shatter, and 5/5 ice shards is decent now. I'd like to try some AoE spots but I don't want to do it fulltime and it requires a build change.
Gruul's Lair is just an awful zone although HKM is an interesting enough fight. Kara is just a brilliant zone (Aran :bow).
Cubicle, is there any way to drag the swing timers and other stuff through quartz? I try setting the position to "high" or "low" or "free" but I can't get it to where I want it.
Any ideas? I'd like to have it preferably under my health/mana bar, but at the very least centered somewhat. It's kinda off-center for me now.
A warrior with skinning as a profession? He IS a greedy fuck.
Anywho, I just started doing skinning with my Druid and am not sure of the proper etiquette when in groups. Should skinners take turns skinning, or should they roll? Truth be told, I'd probably screw up at first and start skinning everything outta habit. Don't let me be that guy.

I just stop playing when I have to. WoW just takes up the time id normally spend with all the games I own that I dont play ;)

I'm working on my blacksmithing today lol. I got to lv300 and now I really want to get to lv330 so I can start making REAL armor. Too bad all the high level stuff binds once it's made, which makes NO sense. What's the point of being an armorsmith if you can't sell your best stuff to other players
They are rather noobish according to most, but it works for me :lol
woot lv331 blacksmith. All I need is a couple more primal earths and I'll have mah armor
For 1, the bottom left action bar is static regardless of your stance. You should focus on having abilities that transfer across all stances or else you wind up wasting space on there with abilities you can't use.
You also want to focus on making most of your commands accessible with your left hand (especially commands that you would use more often than every 30 minutes). This frees your right hand from having to move away from the mouse to hit the keyboard or from having to overstretch your left hand to reach keys past the #6.
Also...ew...F buttons? Those are too far away for me. I'd use 1-6 for your main commands for each stance, and Shift+1-Shift+6 for commands that translate across each stance. I also set hot keys for shift a-s-d-f-space bar and a few others that are close to the left-handed home keys to make sure all of my skills are being represented in reachable hotkeys. It'd be faster to click on some of your skills than use a hot key the way you have it set up.
Sucks for PVE and is completely uncalled for in PVP.

i have three signatures. i need 6 more! catch me when i'm on, usually between 8-10 pm pst
eric, ping me if you need some shadow priest support -- i need to run sm again as well as rfk. i'll be on intermittently all day, finishin' up the grind to 39 and trying to get some gold
I'm averaging 70K xp/hr today (levels 54-59). This quest XP is unreal. I'm going to wait a week to start outlands as I'm going to level with a druid (currently 48) and paladin (39).
After playing WoW and loving it. Do some of you guys have a hard time playing any other RPG? Not MMO, but RPG's in general? Other RPG's just can't compare to WoW type of thing?
I'm just curious. :P Either FA is nuts, or it's a common WoW trend. :P
Hm finding work as a blacksmith is harder than I expected. Enchanters get lots of offers, and people even buy half their mats to get the best enchants. But no one wants a lv335 blacksmith :lol

The gear you can make as a blacksmith kinda sucks tho. By the time someone's got a lvl high enough for a decent weapon, there's something better/cheaper on the AH or quest rewards. BS is a very thankless and expensive profession. If you could freely repair, it'd be worth it...but as it stands, it's really not.

They need to tweak the Blacksmithing skill IMO. It really needs it. It's too expensive for what little you get out of it.
YEAH :punchHm finding work as a blacksmith is harder than I expected. Enchanters get lots of offers, and people even buy half their mats to get the best enchants. But no one wants a lv335 blacksmith :lol

If you want expensive with eh returns go engineering. WAY more expensive.

Engineers can't really sell much of anything period other than guns.Fixed.
I've been making a good deal of monies with Azelion (leatherworker/skinner). Light leather sells pretty well, as do armor kits
Engineers can't really sell much of anything before they get to the higher levels right?

Engineering requires a lot of money to get going. It has ZERO market potential.
I think I'm gonna get a new account later today :rofl
Oblivion is fun, but it feels too lonely :'(
Jesus Christ, totally copying WoW.
That guys nuts.
The combat in Warhammer is way too slow, slower than wow even. Faster combat is better for pvp action.Hmm? They pigeonhole specs on purpose. PvE is not much different. You're not going to find any Shadowstep Hemo rogues in raids just as Destruction in arena has become a joke.
I don't think blizz has done better with pvp, they just find new ways to mess it up. Arena and resil for example. Arena has a small handful of viable specs and those classes get gear others won`t. It's just so broken.

WoW copied a lot of DAoC. Chicken and Egg argument.
Dark Age of Camelot. Released the year Blizzard announced WoW. Some of the gameplay (or at least the ideas behind it) was very similar to WoW. I was talking more about the similar UIs though when I mentioned Warhammer taking a page out of Blizzard's book.
Warhammer's UI theft is pretty damn blatant. they're not even trying to disguise it!

On what server FA? I thought you quit. If you're still on Muradin I'm lv21
I don't think I'll be playing very much for the next 3-4 weeks. I'll mostly do some random soloing in free time, but I have my work yearly major deadline at the end of this month and my courses are starting to get really stressful. I'd like to do some instances sometime, but I think your and my schedule don't really match up well. :(
I don't know whether to chuckle or cry either. I feel terrible and owe Eric P an apology and a blow job.

you suck you shoulda joined me and Keith on BDF
hum. you can do PVP -> PVE transfer I suppose~
where people dont circle jerk over beating down a lone player while trolling around in the company of e-thugs.
okay, it will probably take a few days to finalize, but I'm joining the winning team
alright
theirs nothing too be dissapointed about
I got my confirmation mail, I should hopefully be able to get it finalized tomorrow
It looks like EB Muradin has a nice diversity of different classes.
me: druid / Warrior
Maf: Mage/hunter/druid
Synth: Warlock
PD: Paladin
Prolse: Priest
Wil: Hunter
Eric P: Hunter, I think?
If we can get TVC that'll give us a rogue.
Not Bad :D
My old server had a bunch of buddies who were ALL rogues.
no mere trinket can restore broken trust
Awesome, with Patel and (hopefully) TVC transferring over, we can consolidate our nerd efforts on one server. I am already at LEVEL TWO. Thank you for the nice gift, Eric!
my transfer finished, I'll log on in a few and let you know my name
TVC is coming over, too, though that process is hitting a few snags
I am online now.
