uh, so hunters get even more potent CC? if i'm reading that right more than one enemy can be frozen in the trap at a time.... tell me i'm not reading that right. if multiple people can be frozen in a trap that is just ridiculous.Patch 2.3.2 said:
I was confused by this at first, too.Scrow said:
I think it merely means that, once again, a hunter can use two freezing traps to freeze two targets. For some reason, in 2.3, they made it so that hunters can only freeze one target at a time, when it has always been the former that was true.
Alliance or Horde? I did my premades on Alliance, quicker queues it seems still like the last premade round.
Fiddled around with a Hunter BM/Survival 41/15 spec. Fucking unstoppable in Battlegrounds. I rarely die whilst pumping out a shitload of DPS on clothies and the only classes that give me trouble are Warriors, Bear Druids and Paladins (maybe) at times but I save my Bestial Wrath for those buggers and they go down like a ton of bricks in 10 seconds.
So much CC it isn't funny. Intimidation with my pet (which rocks alongside Dash), Wing Clip, Freezing & Frost Trap, and the tried and true Concussive Shot. Loving the new Arcane Shot to bits as well.
Makes me want to take my lvl 25 Hunter a bit more seriously and level him up to be a god.

Is it just me or is WoW kind of a downer without an online guide? Half of the instances I would have never even known about without someone telling me or me having to ask or look around for online.
Like, I'd be doing shitty grinding quests and then someone would say: want to do BFD? And I'd be like: what the fuck is BFD?
Then I'd Wowwiki it and find out I need to run around behind the Night Elf town and get to some obscure camp and get quests for an instance I would have never heard of.
It's like WoW would prefer you be bored and grinding monsters instead of doing the fun shit. I'm level 28 and it's the farthest I've ever gotten.
I've had the game since it's come out :lol :lol
I don't know, I don't want to miss anything fun you know? Should I give up on trying to see everything on one playthrough? That's my major question Maybe I should just play it as I go and see what happens, I just don't want to miss cool stuff

Made this yesterday. So much fun.
Warlocks am OP confirmed (at least they were yesterday on the PTR).

do you hate exploring or something? That's what WoW really rewards, honestly, along with sinking your entire life into the game. if you just run around exploring areas you'll find quests, weird stuff, etc. and that's generally how people find out about most of this stuff. well, that's how it's first discovered... then it goes up on thottbot/wowhead/whatever and everyone knows it.K7 Avenger said:Is it just me or is WoW kind of a downer without an online guide?

I had mains on Blackwing Lair but I rolled all new characters on Oceanic timezone servers, specifically Nagrand.Icy said:
As firex already stated, WoW is more about exploring those little edges of Azeroth and rewarding you for it - either through new quests, items or just the situation of knowing that you just stumbled upon something that not many people would know about. The entire zone of Azshara itself just gives that atmosphere where it has been untouched for thousands of years by Night Elf hands, mostly due to the ruins scattered around the place as well as not many players stepping into its borders.K7 Avenger said:I don't know, I don't want to miss anything fun you know?

But I wouldn't worry too much about wanting to get through everything. All instances require quests that you either receive in the towns/cities or interspersed nearby the actual instance. If you miss out on it then don't blow a whistle over it, you can always roll another character :lol

It's always been that way up until 2.3. If you didn't know it was possible before, congrats you now realize how overpowered it really is.Scrow said:
2.3 made it so that anything that ran over a new trap dispelled the original frozen target. Combine that with the fact that you have to have the trap down before it activates and you've turned a bad CC into a suicidal one.
wow. have you guys seen this?

I thought I was bad! I've been playing the game since its come out and my highest is a 59 Dwarf Paladin, which I leveled in a month before 2.3! Before that it was my 53 Shaman. To be honest I've taken lots of breaks, which consist of 6+ months without WoW, my longest being over a year, but I still don't have a single level 70 to show for it. Hell, I don't even have a 60 yet. Right now I'm leveling a Druid who is 26 now, but I would probably rather play Shaman. I even made another horde Shaman and leveled him to 36. Now, I'm thinking of starting an Alliance Shaman on one of the high pop. servers so I can do all the lower level instances because hardly a soul does them on any of the servers I'm on. I even realize that they won't matter because I'll be in Outlands soon enough and by the time WoTLK comes out I'll probably forget about old Azeroth all together. I probably have like 20+ alts altogether and it really pisses me off. It's also hard to find a server to settle on because everybody started on the same one and gradually moved so that every server has like 2-3 RL friends... I dunno, my alt-problem is almost leading me to quit again. I'm pretty sure this is one of those months where I am addicted and next month I'll be away from Azeroth again...

DAMN.
And I've been feeling guilty about not hitting 70 yet and I've owned the game for just a little over a year. I've watched one of my friends level 4 70's, two friends go from 40 to 70, and now a friend I just got into WoW 6 months ago about to hit 70 within a few days.
I'm only at 67.
In all fairness, I stopped playing for 2 months out of irritation on two different occasions (due to drama, not the game), and am currently having to take 3 months off because of lack of connection in my room.But it still sucks.

I've got a lot of alts, none more than 24.
Even though my main characters are Horde, I've done the human area literally at least 6 times. I leveled a priest to 12, didn't like her in Westfall, remade her as a pallie, then quit at 10 because I realized I forgot her earrings, then restarted and made it to 16, then went to another server and restarted her again because my friends switched servers and now she's level 20-something in Redridge Mts.
I have a lot of characters around 12-16.

I'd just do a few instances for now, since you can do blackfathom deeps (ashenvale), shadowfang keep (silverpine forest), and then around 30 you can do razorfen kraul in south barrens.
There's a shitload of stuff to do now from 20-40, way more than before on the horde side. It used to be that questing would make you run out of content at around 36-38 if you didn't do any instances, but now you have a good 3 zones for the mid-late 30s and even more for the mid-late 20s and early 30s.

Most of us are spread out to the point where they may not even be 2 or 3 GAFers to a server. I know I'll be activating this coming weekend, my friend iloveasians might be as well, and there was another GAFer that played there as well. Tehjaybo maybe? Not sure if he posts here anymore or if he plays WoW anymore either. We play on Magtheridon-US regardless.
orio7 said:Any tip on how to get past lvl 30? I have had like 50000 lvl 24-30 characters but can't seem to continue with any of them.
Right now I have a lvl 24 rogue and just finished crossroads and wc and is fed up.
At 24 you should be going to Hillsbrad. Luckily the grind got a helluva lot easier with the changes 20-60.

It's the downside of Honor-purchasable S1 gear; many of us had 40k+ points saved up, on top of the full swath of honor-bought stuff from before, plus S1 and S2 we had already. This makes fresh starts impotent on DPS, and a very weak link healing.

Farming bgs all day to get the honor gear is a flat out requirement of doing arenas really.Spruchy said:

How so ?
You can get at least 4/5 Season 3 set by buying points, the shoulder might very well be the least upgrade of the set and the only reason to upgrade it before the head/leg/chest is to show off.
Buy and Save points while replace everything else with honor gears/season 1 stuff.
After that if you cannot get 1850 on your own to buy the weapon, you're just not deserved it.

ah damn. I play horde on tich. My alliance chars are on the forgotten realms(forgotten something, I don't know if I got the name correct)
BTW I want to roll a blood elf mage after I finish with my rogue. Since my rogue is also blood elf and I've done all the quests in the first and second zones of the blood elves, I know that it will feel like a chore going throught those same quests as a blood elf mage again. Is it possible for my mage to travel to one of the horde starting area and do quests from there instead?

I have exams on the 7th 12th and 15th of January. I really feel like playing WoW atm but I know I really shouldn't. Haven't played since March, getting the itch again.
