Some of your choices are strange, but I'm not sure what your goal is for tanking. Usually 5 mans dont really require imp. demoralizing shout, and a DPS warrior can probably spec into it for a raid. So I wouldnt worry about that. And if youre tanking, or even soloing, you should have PLENTY of rage without imp. charge, so dont worry about that, either. Just focus on getting more damage dealing talents.
If youre just doing 5-mans and 10-mans, youll want something like this

It's Org. Short for Orgrimmar.
I was thinking of taking my hunter through Howling Fjord and my Rogue through Borean Tundra but, now I'm thinking it might be a good idea to keep them close to each other so I can get motes from clouds on my hunter and kill Alliance with my Rogue depending on what I run into.

What choices are you saying are strange? The only choices that I personally noticed were kind of out there were Booming Voice and Imp. DS. I only even bothered with those because I'm just assuming in a 5-man leveling instance there won't be a Fury/Arms OffTank to do it...because it's mitigation i figured it was more worth it than something spiky like Cruelty (increased Crits) but what do I know...my build is more geared towards front loading rage (which is when you need it, hence imp. charge) and extra damage to load up on threat. I tend to shy away from Rage reducing talents unless they are the main three I use to build up threat; Revenge, Devastate and Shield Slam and a thunder clap every time it's effect ends.Mike G.E.D. said:
Well, I also use Heroic Strike in my tanking rotation, but it's set as a Revenge/Heroic Strike macro, because you get a 0 rage HS after Glyph of Revenge procs. I only really use HS otherwise when I'm either at 100 rage. But i only started playing 2 months ago, so I'm certain I missed some things that might be important.
Has anyone installed yet and been taken to that super ghetto Blizzard Account Upgrade page? It looks fake..... This is off the disk mind you.
EDIT: I tried it and it worked. It appears Blizzard has, intelligently, made their Account Upgrade page as barebones as possible in preparation for the onslaught their account servers will see tonight.

That stupid installer keeps trying to install to my C drive and then tells me it needs 8 gigs of free space. Fuck you, asshole. It's my OS partition. Why don't you try to copy the files to one of my 800 other drives with plenty of space?

lol by 9:14pm there were already 4 death knights on my server.
Those guys did not waste time.

already installed. for what it's worth, it checks your old patch torrents (old as in 3.0.2 and on) so at least the downloading portion is instantaneous.
didn't migrate shit from my beta install, which annoys me. guess that means I get to delete that install from my computer, though.

line at walmart was pretty huge. it's always fun getting asked ifyou're standing in the WoW line by people who look clearly ashamed to be asking you the question.

Install took about 15 min. Going in now....Wish me luck!
**Edit** I should of known they would make me run a patch. Let's see how long this takes

88%atm! Got my CE, so many people in line in this small 'burb town, I was shocked. I already have the last two patches ready to install right away after this is done.
Question though, is there a code in here for the frost wyrmm and if not where is the vendor I go to to get it?

I thought you had to register for the wyrm on the account management part of the wow site. I could be wrong. They only had the non CE version when I picked mine up.
BTW, I saw the in-game model for Pride, the fist weapon from one of the vendors.
It's hilarious, it's a flaming Wolfshead for a fist. Makes your character look like they have Voltron arms.
http://thottbot.com/i40704 There it is.:lol

servers down?
Anyone else get a weird camera delay/lag when turning up shadows to the real time ones? The framerate stays high (60-100+ depending on what I'm doing and where I am), but holding the left or right mouse button and moving the camera feels laggy for some reason. I could understand the slow feel if I was getting horrible FPS, but 60+ should be fine.
It's not a major delay, but it's noticeable.
EDIT:
Wow, perfect timing, thanks! I was gonna go out and just buy the SE tomorrow and hope I get lucky and find a CE not bought like I did with BC, but this is better. Since I'm starting a new toon it doesn't matter if I don't get it right away either.

Arggh, there was a midnight sale for it around here that I decided to go to, except I totally fell asleep and just woke up.
Ah well, servers were probably crap anyways (bitter tears)

Actually I was surprised, the servers were running especially smooth in the Death Knight zone. I had no lag at all until I made it to Stormwind. Competition wasn't that bad either for mobs/items. Took me a bit under 3 hours to get the 3 levels and clear the place.
My guildies haven't had any problems in Howling Fjord or the Tundra either.

Installing.....
Arrrgh. How odd it is that on page one, people are talking about picking up vanilla WoW.
Edit: Even better that at 1:40 am, I still haven't finished installs yet :lol

blew through utrade keep and got a nice 2h axe. for pve purposes its a little better than the storm herald i'm using now.

Servers were great for me as well. Now the real test comes to see if it can handle the load of 10 million high school kids coming home from school today.
Edit: also while I was picking up the game I picked up a pack of the new WoW miniatures. Sculpts are pretty sweet though the paint applications are lacking. However, I did manage to get the slashdance loot card, which will give me an AoE grenade that causes those hit to burst out in dance.
