Hey, I recently made a WoW movie based on Karazhan. Basically just a montage of the bosses with some music and a little story to add some flavor. It's hosted on Filefront, ok to post here? Or should I get it up on youtube, though I fear that would rape the quality.
Mr. Bunnies said:
I'd say both.
If the people enjoy the movie enough they might download the better version from Filefront, thats how I act with certain things anyway.
Now, I've got a question.
I shifted to WoW from FFXI last year with the trend following my FFXI guild mates, the majority of them are American (I'm Aussie) in the end I just followed them to the server they chose.
Time went on, I stopped playing for a while and decided to pick it up just before TBC, managed to hit 70 and then realised that I wouldn't be able to raid with my friends like we did in FFXI (the difference in endgame between FFXI and WoW is unmeasurable).
Not being able to raid with my friends kind of killed the fun and I got bored rather quickly. I was lucky enough to find an Australian guild on the US server and we managed to finish Karazhan quite quickly, unfortunately it wasn't in my interest to stick around with their guild (leadership issues, constant conflict among members, ruling out newer members and whatnot) soon after I left the game entirely.
I'm looking to pick the game up again soon so I'm wondering if any of you can recommend a server with active Asia-pacific raid guilds (Horde preferred, I've had it with Alliance (sorry kids)).
Any help is appreciated, cheers.

I'm so close to buying a new computer and start with WoW again. Damn it! I quit before BC was released, but my friends are still playing and they try to convince to come back.
Help me GAF, I know it would suck me in again.

Autumn, there's a bunch of Oceanic servers both PVP and PVE. Check out the forums there to see which one has the most active hordie population. Probably one of the newers ones I'd gather.
Blackrock is a "US" server that has unofficially been taken over by Aussies as well.

They would love to help me, that's not the problem. It's more because I know that I would get addicted again and the rest of my life would go down the toilet again.
And my girlfriend would kill me, definitely.
The fact alone that it's so tempting to start again worries me.
Just unsubstantiated rumors (which is what IGN's good at) but here is what they claim someone said about the new expansion: http://pc.ign.com/articles/809/809350p1.html
I kind of hope some of it's true, since it'd get me back into WoW, and I don't want them to rush the northrend/arthas stuff.

On the other end, Wowinsider is saying leaked music sheets for the final live concert at Blizzcon 2007 could mean the next expansion is indeed Northrend. Anyway, exciting week ahead for WoW fans

While the concept of Hero classes is interesting...I don't think the Maelstrom setting sounds very interesting. I don't think it has a chance to pull me back to WoW that's for sure. Anyway, we'll find out Friday.
Well judging by what IGN has said with the "no talents from 70-80" being substituted for hero classes, it sort of makes sense and effectively eliminates the insane amount of bitching that ensues after new talents are added. But who really knows.
Draft is correct in that talents replace/d hero classes in the sense that the differences between a Resto Shaman and an Enhancement Shaman are easily there to see - so why bother trying to add something that is already explainable?
I'd still like to see a hero Druid of the Wild running around though

Could always make that the 51 point talent in one tree or another :lolspeedpop said:I'd still like to see a hero Druid of the Wild running around though
BTW new rumor is that the xpac is called "Wrath of the Lich King", primarily takes place in Northrend, and that Death Knight or something similar is the new class.
Sounds pretty plausible. If DKs were plate wearing casters, they could largely get away with paladin itemization at the low levels, assuming they have a spell damage tree, a tanking tree, and maybe something like a debuff/melee DPS tree? It adds another tank to the game, bringing some parity to the class choice (4 healer types, 4 pure dps types, 4 tank types.) And it fits with the lore. Sort of that whole stare into the abyss and the abyss stares back at you thing. Spend some time in Northrend fighting the Scourge, sooner rather than later you've got people copying their abilities to counteract them.

:lol I dunno. Habit? No hard feelings or anything.Hero said:
Regardless, the point is correct. Hell, I'd say "**** my shaman" and roll Death Knight. It's sort of the same situation with including Pandaren in the game. Who wouldn't want to be one? This is also tied to my Brewmaster class idea, BTW, which will obviously never see the light of day.

When Hero Classes were being played around with before WoW came out, Blizzard had a Human Deathknight as a Hero Class. Humans are commonly Death Knights. Arthas, and some of the Four Horsemen. Three of them are Humans.

More Wotlk (Wrath of the Lich King) leaked infos by WoWszene.de
WoWszene.de came up with a massive amount of leaked infos on the next WoW Addon: Wrath of the Lich King
We asked to WoWszene.de the permission to post the translation (thanks MyM|Lenya) of the german part of their article ; there it is:
WoW-Szene.de presents you the most important contents about the new addon by Blizzard- World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King. Last night you could see those informations shortly on an underpage of the officially EU-WoW Website and got confirmed to WoW-Szene.de by other sources, among others the official FAQ to WotLK.
What to expect from the Expansion :
*It is going to Northrend! With level 80 and new abilities! If some Objects are achieved, you can create a new Character. The Death Knight. He starts straight in High Level Area.
*In PVP there will be finally be the long-ago announced siege weapons available and there will be destroyable buildings, plus a new battleground
*The Deathknight will be a kind of Damage Dealer and at the same time a Tank with so far non existant new abilities. He will be playable by Alliance and Horde, but it will be just certain Races who will have the possibility to create a Death Knight. He is the first Heroclass and other will probably come in the following Expansions.
More summaries of the of the FAQs:
* New possibilities of designing your Character.
* You will fight against the Lich King Arthas!
* Leveling from 70 to 80 will take as much time as leveling from 60 to 70.
* Howling Fjord will be the first area you will arrive to. Afterwards there will be areas following like Grizzly Hills and Dragonblight.
* The first Dungeon will be Utgarde Keep. You will be able to enter it at level 70 and it will be a 5-man Instance. 25er Dungeons will still be existant, just as well as Heroic Instances.
* New Profession: Inscription – Enduring amplification of spells and abilities.
* There will be a Cinematic Intro.
* Northrend will be about as big as Outlands.
Other contents like screenshots could sadly not be saved since the page went offline straight.
The complete FAQ with other Informations in English can be read here.
Doesn't seem too out of the way, but we'll see if any of that is true. Wonder what exactly Inscription will be.

Hate Tidewalker. IMO he's harder than Vashj. At least Vashj is fairly static- shit happens, you deal with it, you screw up, you wipe. Tidewalker's so random. Ooops, he just graved your pally tank! Oops, he just graved 3 healers! Ooops, he just bursted for 18k! Ooops, one of your healers out aggroed the pally tank by 100 threat, and now he's dead. Ooops, Ooops, Ooops! And of course he's got like 4.5 million HP, so the whole thing lasts 10 minutes. Hate him.SatelliteOfLove said:
It's awesome that you'll be able to start a DeathKnight out at a high level, but at the same time that pretty much guarantees that everybody and their mom with have a DeathKnight alt. Is it primarily a caster or melee class?
Any insight into what the new profession is supposed to be?
* New Profession: Inscription Enduring amplification of spells and abilities.
Does this mean you'll be making consumable scrolls for players to buff themselves? Or will it be just another form of enchanting?

Agreed. It's the fight that gives us the most trouble by far. There are just so many ways for the fight to go wrong on Morogrim and it takes forever to kill him.
I liked it at first because I'm the pally tank but it's quickly become the fight I hate the most.

Ok, looks like I'm going to start again. Now I just have to decide what race/class.
I had a 60 druid the last time I played, and what I really don't want this time is healing.
I'm torn between warlock / warrior / shaman.
Warlock: Sounds cool but it seems to me that EVERYONE is playing a warlock at the moment (at least in low level areas).
Shaman: Is it possible to play one without being healer every time you're in a party?
Warrior: When I started with WoW warriors were weak and everyone laughed at them. Later on they were strong as hell and everyone said "imba". How are they at the moment?
Thanks for any advice guys.
