Finally hit 50 today.

Trying to level to 55 so I can create a DK and just head straight into the WotLK/BC content without having to level all the way to 58.

The DK starting quests will take you to 58 though...

Who the hell want to transfer twice in 3 days? Do some search before selecting a server!

I'm not really certain of why you are doing that. Nobody is looking for new Death Knights in upper tier content, and while fun, they don't do more damage than the other classes played correctly.

You really gain 0 levels since you have to do the DK starting quests for 55-58, and by the time you hit 55, it's faster than that to just have a friend summon you to Hellfire Penninsula and get run through the Blood Furnace/Hellfire Ramparts ad nauseum.

Well it's more like, you transfer to a realm and the guild you wanted to join tells you to get fucked. You basically can't do anything for 30 days.

That's what I mean, I would rather level to 58 using a DK because I've heard that the DK starting quests are really fun and would rather level to 58 doing those than the normal vanilla wow's "kill this many of this" or "Find this number of this item" quests.

And then as soon as I get out of DK land, I can start on the much more interesting Burning Crusade content, and then eventually do my first raid.

I'm just about sick of playing my mage, so it will be nice to play something diffrent for a change.

If you're excited about raiding, being a ranged dps such as a mage would get you into groups MUCH easier then as a death knight. I definitely regretted making my shaman enhancement, despite the fact that I really enjoy the play style. Due to the dearth of paladins and death knights I find it difficult to get into a 10 man Naxx pug as a melee.

WoW hasn't been melee friendly for awhile now. However I find it odd you can't find a group as an Enhancement Shaman. Atleast you're not an Elemental Shaman... :\

Ret Pallies needed to be nerfed in PVP. Next on the list should be Rogues.

I haven't followed the nerfs, but I'm glad they're finally getting normalized after they've ran rampant for so long. Next up, get the druids. Too much survivability in class that can shift from DPS to Tank, and heal itself. They fixed their interrupt now supposedly, which is a good thing if true, but next they to take care of their survivability, or their dps.

Rogues are working as intended. A melee class with little armor, no self healing, whose defense is dodge and stuns. As said, they've given up armor for mobility and dps. If caught with stuff on c/d, or played against properly, they'll most likely get blown up. Some argue that their survivability is too low at the moment but I think this is the most balanced they've been in a while.

Updated list, possible they merged these.

What is this?

I love idiots who buy accounts and have NO idea at all how to play the game. Doing a HVH pug, a druid joins. We buff up and are waiting for marks from the druid who asks what? Well finally after getting buffs I check out his gear, and it is sick ass 213/226 tree gear. His current talent spec? Boomkin. The first portal opens and there is this big tauren sitting there casting moonfire... I was like why haven't you swapped to your dps gear and gone into boomkin form... we kicked his lame ass and just 4-manned it :lol

I hope Blizzard does use this next expnasion to finish alot of the areas left over in the old world. Although how would Grim Batol be a zone if it was just a copy of Ironforge in Wetlands?

Oh yay, I'm now the target of guild drama from a guild I left a little more than 2 months ago.

Going to be a fun week since the poor chap took a good bit out of his day to harass me.
Well, not the first time he has done it to someone also. :|


Anywho, ticket filed.

I expect it to be a raid in the vein of Malygos, unless they'd rather let Deathwing continue to cheat death. He's still hanging out down there, along with who knows how many twilight dragons.

Just got my paladin up to 79.5 and honored with sons of hodir, bought a titan steel shield wall and helm off AH for cheap, and working on argent crusade rep for the arcanum of the stalwart protector. Like one round of daily quests away from revered with wyrmrest for the boots and chest.

Should go quite a bit over 540 defense even with stats or health on chest, nice buffer for upgrades with less def.

Should be sitting at around 27k hp and 25k armor when i get everything enchanted and gemmed, can't wait. Gonna be broke as hell though.

:lol :lol

Need to run a bunch of heroics this weekend to get the badge libram and trinket cause mine suck horribly.

That makes sense.

Do you guys remember this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91ZKb61xxX0

It says Ironforge Alpha but i'm 99% sure Dopefish said back then that he took the alpha files for Grim Batol and just put it into Ironforges location.

I would hope, as one of the biggest lore characters in the game, that they'd give Deathwing more than just a quick Maly style instance, but you never know.

I have people asking me to do stuff all the time as an Enhancement Shaman.

Started working on my rouge again, my 80hunter friend ran me through ZF and a chunk of Mauradon, got myself some Albino Crocscale Boots from good old Rotgrip I wanna redo my spec a bit, anyone got some suggestions?

here she is Smallerthanu

Anyone have a link to direct download the patch, my laptop doesn't wanna finish the download for some reason.

That's the Ironforge that existed from alpha until pretty early beta. Around the time they made the level cap 45 in beta, they redesigned IF into the way it looks today.

Maly is a huge lore character as well... he deserved far more than what was there. (And no riding drakes please, ugh!)

Maly is a huge character just in the fact that he is the head of the Blue Dragonflight, but Deathwing has played a much much larger roll in the past Warcraft games than Maly.

What Maly did deserve was a much better voice actor than the stupid blood elf actor.

how can you hate on Leonardo/Liquid Snake like that?

Cam Clarke does kind of suck though.

Also, does anyone know of any WoW podcasts which actually feature raiders (besides The Instance)? Everytime I check out a new podcast, the beginning sections where the hosts talk about what they've been doing since the last show always start with "Well, my guild finally tried Naxx, we cleared Spider but wiped for hours on Grobbulus" and I just have to turn it off. Raiding is really the only thing that interests me at the moment.

No shit, I just mean that it was an extremely weak flashback. For being a world destroying figure, Archimonde was a pansy.
He'd have to be a pansy to die to hundreds of thousands of fucking wisps detonating on him at once. It's like blowing up a sherman tank with a really long string of firecrackers.

yeah, but archimonde had so much HP it wouldn't even fit on the screen in Warcraft 3. besides, wisps suck, just like everything else night elf.

Stompalina and Halfrott from the Rawrcast are some of the most hardcore raiders with a podcast that I know of. They do a great show too. It's right up there with the Instance. http://rawrbitchrawr.blogspot.com/

Today is maintenance day in the US (though it's over now) and tomorrow is maintenance day in the EU, so that could have something to do with the issues.

Blizzard's new armor sets aren't lazy. The REAL Lazy is Blizz making the Heroic raids drop the SAME NAMED ITEMS with better stats :lol

50 bucks says if that makes it to live, you're going to see some kind of minor patch with new names for the items, since it serves virtually no purpose to have "heroic" Justicebringer vs. "regular" Justicebringer other than to save some naming effort. Just call it something else.
