No. You are matched with Level Locked Players too. You can't be matched in BGs with levelling characters if you lock your Level.
Twinking is fun because it's like Pokemon's Little Cup. Its like trying to maximize the capability of low level Character and limited spells. But the introduction of heirloom somewhat reduces the other appeal of creating twinks(hunting for low level BIS Gear).
Low level quees for twinks are fast too since there are also players who creates twinks from Free to Play Accounts.
You can get around that, unless it's been fixed. Queue up, queue pops, lock level, accept queue

Turns out I'm a pretty crap healer/resto shaman but I'm alright at capping. Almost capped three times in one match.
Still have two old twinks on my account - a 19 Rogue and a 39 Druid.
The 19 Rogue is especially great - Engineering for those incapacitating bombs and Leatherworking for those armor kits all over his gear. Engineering goggles, Thistle Tea, Fiery Weapon enchant... all for naught now, of course.

Strategically coined tonight and got a heroic Empty Drinking Horn. Boosts damage by so, so much. Now I just need a cleave trinket and tier and I'll be destroying.
Grats! I'll be happy if i get him down on Normal before next expac haha.MYTHIC ARCHIMONDE DOWN finally 13/13m
As for Cata zones, Deepholm is easily my favourite. Such an alien, cool-looking zone with a surprising amount of variance for a big underground cavern. It's a shame we never got actual zones for Skywall and whatever the water elemental plane is called, would have liked to explore those outside of dungeons.
Uldum would be good if it focused more on the Tol'vir and less on being Harrison Jones's sidekick. As it is it's a disappointment. Twilight Highlands doesn't even feel like a final zone and has no sense of forboding.
Hyjal is alright and pretty in places. #TeamVashj'ir forever though.

One thing I want out of Legion, and this is a stupid small thing, is to be able to have the appearance and benefit(s) of my fishing rod without having to manually equip it.

Going back and playing some characters I've had at 90 since last expac, I don't get the rogue hate people have. I'm having fun playing assassination. I think I'll retire my DK for now, I find ret & my rogue more fun. Doesn't help the human dual wield animations are awful.
Yeah assassination is still my favorite spec in the game, haters gonna hate, doesn't really bother me to be honest. Envenom is a just a really satisfying skill, especially on enemies that require low movement where you can get like 75ish percent uptime on it. Only real problem we have right now is how terrible our AOE is. At its core the spec is a DoT spec but they didn't bother giving us a good way to spread our DoTs in AOE situations like other DoT specs. AOE part of the spec really needs a complete design overhaul.
Did anyone noticed that on horde map of frostfire ridge it says Garnison instead of Garrison?
Probably for the same reason most of the draenor maps in the game (on walls I mean) still have farahlon. They don't care that much
It's being fixed in the next patch.Did anyone noticed that on horde map of frostfire ridge it says Garnison instead of Garrison?

It actually only happened with 6.2 and the Shipyard map change.
Resubbed with 27k gold. Feels good mang. I like the idea that I'm playing for a bit each month to pay for the game and the rest is gravy. No more money spent. (That's all going to hearthstone. Lol)
Fuck is this ever overwhelming to come back to. My main's bags are crammed with garrison and prof stuff and I can't remember what the fuck is happening or where I left off in January.
I'm seriously thinking I'll just jump on a less conplicated lower level alt or even a brand new character and ease myself back into the game.
Btw, any takers for a Warlords standard digital key, discounted from MSRP? I got it refunded by blizzard after buying a physical CE recently. Comes with the 90 boost and all.
Alternatively, I'd happily consider selling it for the gold equivalent to help pay for a couple months' subs!

What are people's thoughts on which kinds of realms to play on these, specifically regarding population? I moved from Alliance-PVE-lowpop where my old guild was to Horde-PVP-highpop to enjoy Pandaria and Draenor with a fresh coat of paint. I've dug being a Blood Elf the most, and seeing things from the Horde perspective (very cool garrisons compared to the alliance ones, etc.), but man, despite enjoying how busy and lively the realm is compared to my old Alliance realm, it sucks being unable to play with my old friends, especially around expansion launches. Many came back from Warlords and I wasn't able to run dungeons with them, etc. I do miss that.
Torn now about whether I want to transfer back. $55 is a fucking tough pill to swallow - I really wish Blizzard offered a reduced price for combo faction/server transfers or something.

You need to do some for the legendary ring, you get a chest with a raid item in it every 2 weeks, and there are some other rare ship missions with stuff like Heirloom rings and a pet.

Man, I really hope that new transmog thing is account wide. I'm getting so much cool stuff on my hunter the last couple of days from Naxx, Icecrown and Firelands. I only tried 25m normal in Firelands and did it.
Only had issues with two bosses. The spider boss first is annoying when it pulls you above his webbing, I lose my pet then. Managed to do it with a tiny bit of hp left.
And the rock golem, dpsing the legs and making him move over the volcanoes while trying to dodge lots of adds. Same thing here, got lucky. Everything else was really easy.

I've kept up with my shipyard since the 6.2 launch, and I still haven't seen any of the heirloom rings or the void trinket. =(
Me too. I'll probably go crazy w/BoEs too if that happens. Also, they really should get rid of level reqs on at least the purely cosmetic items.

Do you have the Ghostly Spyglass?
No, I don't. I thought I had gotten all the blueprints from Tanaan, but apparently I missed this one. Will those missions not even appear if you're missing it?
I've gotten the void trinket without it.
CarbonatedFalcon

That's just to counter them though from my understanding. Not cause the mission to spawn.
Well, I went and did it minutes after I replied to you. XD
Do I need to actually equip a spyglass, or is having the blueprint enough?

Flight with Draenor Pathfinding is being added in 6.2.2! Probably old news but I now have some motivation to play through Tanaan despite not wanting to invest much more time or energy into my warrior.

Everything on Wowhead says it's to make them appear too. And personal anecdote agrees.

Man I will say, the new honor 1h sword looks sick.
But how come the new honor gear is better than the old conquest gear? Now you have to honor grind all that shit again?
Not cool, and they wonder why everyone leaves...

What's the current FOTM class/spec that makes you feel like a god in PVE and which one for PVP? After all these years I'm finally in a spot where I have almost all classes at higher levels and I just want to return to the game now and wreck shit instead of always feeling like I'm playing one of the marginalized roles or classes.
I've had missions with cursed crews without it, though no ring mission.

Locks are insane in pvp and pretty good in pve.
Mages are good in both.
Warriors and rogues as well if you want to be melee.
I main a lock and don't understand this. Do you have any information on how not to suck ass in PvP?

Suck until you have honor gear.
Then suck some more until you have conquest gear.
Then go back to step one and use your gear to force everyone else to go through what you just did.

For soloing content you can't beat a hunter. BM pets are basically unkillable in pve.

Water is not wet!
This addon got me to reinstall the game. Shame you cant close or even hide the regular quest window. After moving it squarely behind Storytime its all good though.

Man, assault on the pitt can f the right off solo. Died so many times, at least I got it finished. Only doing it for the achievement for flying.
Yeah I've been playing more than usual lately just because the addon lol. Been great going through old quests I haven't finished yet with a way better UI.
SargerusBR
I love Pokken!
I did that just now lol. There is a spot where you can farm those low health mobs without elites patrolling. They give about 0.5% but respawn pretty fast, took me about 20 minutes.

You're not supposed to solo it. It's a group daily.
For this instance its DPS dk for a couple of reasons, not sure about pvp.
If you just want pure damage I would say hunter.

I'm really enjoying Restoration Shaman in the low level dungeons. The queue times are nice, usually only 2-3 minutes, it's the same with BG's (although I always got into those relatively quickly even as a dps). Looking forward to getting to WoD and seeing how those queue times scale. If I can actually gear up in WoD LFD then I could finally try my hand at raiding.
I wish I knew about this before all of the questing I've been doing. At least I'll have it for WoD quests.
