Wow, since I knew what realm they xferred my druid to I went to the copy page at the ptr site and used that to show all my toons and find out his new name, copied him to the ptr to see what damage was done. They even sold all my fucking bags, lawl. Blizzard is being useless about helping me, finally got a reply telling me to fill out the webform for help... I did that fucking 24 hours ago idiots, how do you think I contacted you?!

Well I can play my account again but as soon as I got it back I started getting temp password change emails again. I'm just waiting for my blizzard auth. to come and for blizzard to restore 3 years worth of gear, items, a lousy 2600 gold and to reverse the xfer. I really don't know what to do while I wait for the auth to come. I haven't shared my info so its not a friend, Spyboy, lavasoft adaware, comodo firewall, avira antivirus and avg all say my system is clean. Hopefully they don't actually get back on my account.

Well I must give blizzard 2 thumbs up for good customer service. I already got ALL the gear on my toons restored along with every single item. I'm just waiting for them to xfer my druid back and restore his gear and my gold. My gold probably was on the druid when xfered so it should come back with him I hope. Bastards are already requesting temp passwords trying to hack my account again though.

After 2 days of training it doesn't look like Zomg Mighty Powerful M'uru the Guild Disbander QQ, sure a hard boss, but so far doesn't look like one that will block progress for 2 months or so
He's nasty on a short schedule. Disconnect boss on Felmyst, WotLK anticipation, and general schedule problems shorten learning time considerably. Changing "Seeing P2" to "Clean transition to P2" to "Kill" is the rough part.

CassSept said:Oh I see, that makes sense. So far we seem to more or less control the adds in first phase, just some minor tweaks and I guess we can get to P2.
And I hope we can see KJ before 3.0
Another reason that fight is deceptive is that you can't judge progress by % on Mooroo or Entropius; it's all control. And to get that level of control to rack up a kill, your patterns will probably change.
For example, we started off first night with 8 healers, 2 per. I had to SPAM like a mofo to keep the Near side tank up, as the CC factor was variable as hell. Later, we had that under control, and I had GCDs freed up that I sorely needed to work on the next facet: keeping renew up on Sentinel tanks and keeping PoM bouncing, all because we trimmed down to 7. Next, Im trying to slip in SW
on Mooroo to aid in speeding up P1 WHILE there being only 6 healers, etc. All the time it changes, and what the fight means changes with it.BigJonsson

OK GAF, help me out. A friend talked me into trying WoW again, which I decided to do as retaliation against my darling wife for bringing another God-forsaken cat into our home when I begged her not to. I haven't played since Naxx was announced. I tried to get some idea of the changes that have been made and it's completely overwhelming.
Can anyone answer a few immediate concerns?
- How much faster is the leveling from 20-60? In the old days I always stalled out leveling alts when they hit around level 40. Combination of hating the zones at that level and too much xp needed to ding usually made me run back to my main. I won't be getting the 3x bonus, since my friend's alts are all level 70.
- Warlock or shaman? Not interested at all in PvP. Warlock was my favorite class in the old days, but I was a damn good shaman in groups. My friend was telling me there have been a lot of changes made to the shaman class to buff melee dps for enhance shaman and buff healing for resto shaman. Significant, or are they still a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none class?
- 10 mans? Reading that there will be 10 man versions of WotLK raids was a big selling point for me. I've always preferred smaller groups, don't really care about loot. Are these going to be something that's feasible if I don't run 25 mans, or are they going to be a fun distraction for people progressing in the "normal" 25 man versions?

Time to level? I can't speak for 20-40 (I had quit at around 40 before 2.3/2.4). From 40 onwards is pretty fast. You're probably looking at an average of 3 hours per level. From 60-70 is about 10 hours per level, so that's where you'll be spending a lot of your time. Oh, and it doesn't matter if your friend has level 70s. Make him create a new character. Since you can summon him anywhere, just summon him to you before you turn in a bunch of quests. You'll get 3x XP for the turn-ins, which will speed up your leveling dramatically in later levels.
PvE? Well both Shamies and Warlocks are needed for raids, so I think either is fine. Warlock will be pure DPS, while I think a Shamie will be moving in between enhancement and healing in raids. Shamies are probably more useful overall, but Warlocks are better for solo PvE.
I don't know about the 10 mans myself, but I'm glad they have that in. My interest in raiding is very slight (I'm more of a PvP guy), so having 10 mans makes it easier for me to get into raids, and I assume they'll generally go quicker too (less chance for someone to screw up).
TomServo said:
Going from 60-70 is pretty smooth too though. The main difference is that you'll actually be getting a decent amount of gear from quest rewards that outdoes your previous gear, so it keeps you motivated. Also, it's much easier to get instance groups from 60-70, so instances are a viable way of leveling at that point as well.
TomServo, I should add: make sure you get QuestHelper. It will help you to level much, much faster.
Other add-ons I recommend:
1) Cartographer (mainly because it shows you maps without you having to explore)
2) ArcHud (visual HUD around your character. No need to look at the top left to see your health, mana/rage/energy, or your enemy's health)
3) ArkInventory (can be set up to sort your bag automatically. Helps a lot when it comes to finding items in your bag. I have mine set up to sort quest items, fishing, mining, engineering, soulbound weapons, BOE weapons, etc...)
Lastly, I suggest that you take Mining/Herbalism and Skinning for leveling to at least 70, since it will give you all the money you need to buy mounts and such. If you're a clothie, then take Mining/Herbalism and Tailoring (since Tailoring can provide you good gear with very little overhead). Once you hit 70, then you can drop Skinning in favor of a crafting profession.

I always liked herbalism / alchemy. Has alchemy been nerfed?
Not so much worried about gold, friend has more than he knows what to do with and I told him I was going to start charging him in gold for all the beer he drinks at my house.
Thanks for the advice on UI mods.
TomServo said:
Well if you're already set for gold, then yeah herbalism/alchemy should do fine. If you're a clothie though, I'd still suggest taking up tailoring, since it'll end up being more useful than alchemy to you. You can always make an alt to take care of your alchemy needs in the future (I think it takes level 40 or so to be maxed out).

Grats on nerfed m'uru? He's still hard though, but not nearly as hard as before.
As for KJ.. yeah good luck

I'm thinking that getting into my buddy's guild (who's first in progression on the server) as a casual player will cover a lot of needs. I'm also thinking that if progression is sped up from 20-60 that gear isn't going to be as much of a concern. I'll be playing solo most of the time, and the alchemy buffs seem like they'd make a bigger difference. Again, I could be totally wrong here since I haven't touched the game in over two years.
Another question... did they update the engine? My framerate is horrible, even with most of the sliders near the bottom. I'm piecing a new PC together from used parts; e6300 that supposedly ran rock solid @ 2.8GHz, Asus P5W, 8600GT, 2GB RAM. Will that let me move the sliders up playing at 1380x768 (37" HDTV)?
To posters before, nah, i haven't killed M'uru, it's just after few tries that I thought he will be a lot harder.
@SatelliteofLove: That's why I'm saying about controlling P1, I would've used numbers but that's useless because you can just zerg M'uru and get him down and /flex with % of M'uru
@fularu: Well, it would be hard for us to kill pre-nerf M'uru since we killed Illidan after Default was already farming KJ And my guild is progressing pretty decent anyway, we overtook about 5 guilds that killed illidan before us and caught to 2 that were farming Illidan before 2.4
And still no glaives, for god's sake.

Nub question here.
First serious toon, about to ding 58. (BE ret pally, if it matters)
About half my guildies are telling me to go Outlands right away to get way better gear, the other half are saying wait til 60 for more gold rewards once I ding 70, as well as being better able to "handle" mobs.
Your take, GAF?
P.S. 3-4 hours is about right thus far for 20-60, maybe 4.5-5 for me as a first timer with only an alt-tab guide.

Outlands for sure.
Tons of XP, better loot and cash.
Plus you'll be cooler for it.

P1 is nothing, it's a snore fest of epic proportions. P2 is when the fight starts. don't believe for a single second that the fight is hard p1 and free kill p2
As for catching up... Kalecgos is easier than Illidan (who's a joke), Brutallus is a tank and spank fight that you learn in 2 nights if your guild doesn't suck, Felmyst is a free lootbag boss rewarding you for killing brutallus and the twins, since the ledge strat are probably on a lucifron level of difficulty.
I hope for you that you actually kill M'uru, but don't sell the bear(s fur before you actually kill him

So I'm back from a long WoW break. I've got a level 70 Orc Warrior, and I'm not sure what I should do.
Are there any decent quests or dungeons I should be looking out for?

How well geared are you? If you're still in greens and blues, then you have a few options:
1) Do the higher level dungeons (anything rated for lvl 70 like Shadow Labs, Tempest Keep, etc...). Once you're blue-ed up and have rep with the different factions, you can start doing heroics. Also worth nothing is that there's a 5-piece blue PvP set you get from the different rep factions that can get you started nicely as well.
2) Do BattleGrounds. Honor farm your way to epic PvP gear, which is more than good enough to get you going in PvE.
After you're geared, then you can start raiding Karazhan.
Also, there's a new area called Isle of Quel'Danis (or something like that). There, you can do 10 or so daily quests to farm for gold. In about an hours time, you make around 100g. Try to do these every day if you can.
I see, there are a lot of people saying its the other way (reach P2 = kill), but there are also other myths so I guess you might be rightFularu said:
Kalecgos may be easy, but damn, he isn't as easy as Illidan (saying he is a joke is not enough).
As for the ledge strat.... DO NOT WANT. But actually killing Twins took us less than other SWP bosses.
And well, about M'uru the annoying thing is that there always has to be some single retard who fucks up and wipes whole raid, sigh
