Thread resurrect, in anticipation for Cataclysm 
Anyone still play this? I just got the combo pack of WoW and BC, been playing it almost nonstop for the past week or so. I'm quite disgusted with myself, I've gotten to level 45 now
when my friend who has a level 80 character or two asked me what level I was, his response was "that's gross". Me and my friend are on refer a friend though, so each high level quest can give us anywhere from 10,000 to 25,000 XP.
This came after years and years of making fun of my friends firsthand while they played this at their houses.... now who's laughing. I think I would have played a lot sooner had it not been for the Southpark episode of WoW.
I'm not addicted persay, its just that when I play I tend not to stop for a while. Oh and I did my first BG PvP yesterday, I kept getting owned by mages and I got one-shotted by a lvl 49 Rogue :ghey: people don't stand still like they do in PvE, heh
My toon was a level 42 Orc Warrior at the time btw. I only got in 2 killing blows the whole match, it was CTF.

What servers are you guys on? I'm on Ner'zhul, stuck with my friends. lvl 55 already after about 2 weeks of owning the game.... disgusting. Refer a friend gives you massive XP, when questing enemies are like 3x the XP, quests are probably 2-3x
Also, what do you guys think... Cataclysm is coming out soon and I still don't have the Lich King expansion yet. I'll probably get Cata, but if I preorder I'll "save 15%" now I'm not sure if that's just for LK or not. You guys think the Lich King price will drop after Cata comes out, cause that's what I've been hearing. But I figure, if you can save when you preorder, why would they drop the price... urgh
If only this game were $10/month or less...

Um, I've gotten facerolled quite a bit recently. I think I need to play more PvP because when someone appears out of nowhere I usually hesitate for a second or two and that's all it takes for me to die. Rogues are a pain in the ass in particular, out of nowhere I get stunned, crit'd by Ambush, another attack and I'm dead.
Another time I got jumped by a paladin accompanied by a healer. No chance.
Any tips for PvP, for my 57 Fury Orc Warrior? The one successful honor kill I've gotten out of BG was when I got the jump on a Dranei caster, intercepted/stunned them, hamstringed them so he couldn't get far, then they were short work. Only reason was cause I wanted to mine a gold vein and they were in the way

Oliver!!!
I'm on Medivh. 80 Undead Frost mage. Also have a 20something mage, but only play that with a group of friends. We all get together at my house, order pizza, drink lots of beer and play. Instances are much harder when you're plastered by the way.
Miz, when 4.0 came out all the talent trees changed drastically. There's a whole new thought process behind it. They're trying to simplify things.

I still play on private servers because I don't feel like paying 15 dollars a month for a game that I don't play that often. But cataclysm looks sick.

How do these private servers work? They basically the same thing, full functionality, or....?

Yep I play on a server where just about all the spells work, the BGs work, and majority of instances work. On top of that the xp rate, making it so much easier to lvl. The reason why I quit WoW was because it took forever to hit 70 and then 80. The game is too much of a time investment.

Yeah I did that for a while, level of the players' maturity alone can be worth it. However, my real life friends still play on legit ones so thats where i'm at. I couldn't talk them into LOTRO or EVE, oh well

I'm stuck on a paid server too for the same reason. Cata does look cool though, I kind of want to make a Tauren Paladin named Retbull or Givesyouwings
They should make a World of Starcraft
I don't know much about the lore of WC, though I'm slowly learning it. I know a decent amount about SC at least, having played and finished each campaign and doing some reading on the side.

^ Blizzard is just asking for it, making a race of cows available.
I'm undecided on my next toon.... Tauren Pally probably. Or a Mage? A Priest? Been reading that a lot of people love their mages and priests, and I'll be playing in a PvP server with BGs as the ultimate goal. Really interested in trying out a ranged caster.

I realized that there are a LOT of toons named "Toucher", many of whom are priests. Apparently back in the day or even now, you could attain the rank of "Private [Name]"

an Undead named Heath Ledger.... too soon?

I'm Down Right Fierce!
I still play (been playing for 5 years now).
I'm actually scheduled to raid tonight to finish up an ICC mount run for some guildmates, but considering a pretty significant patch is launching today, who knows when servers will be stable.
But it's an exciting time. The Shattering happens today - the old world is going to be changed forever.

Shit, I still haven't explored everything yet. I don't even know what Stormwind looks like 
my friend said it was one of his favorite cities, but I didn't bother with my human pally enough to get that far. Damn.... I was wondering what the patch was all about. I thought it wasn't going to happen until near the Cata release date.

^ lol yes and no.
Because of the massive changes (going from a 51 talent point tree to 31 talents) in patch 4.0, which happened right around the time you started playing, Warrior's were under performing in current lvl 80 raid content. The idea being that everything would scale fine at lvl 85 when Cata launches.
So Blizz buffed them in the interim so that they (in theory) would do similar numbers pre 4.0... however those buffs were ridiculous.
I have a Shadowmourne on my DK, and pre 4.0, I would do similar numbers as a Fury War with Shadowmourne in my guild. Post 4.0 (with the buffs) the Fury War absolutely tears me apart - I do about 15-17k dps, he can pull close to 20k dps on raid fights where you stand still.
You'll be fine when you hit 85.
And I feel you, I was horde for 5 years, before faction changing a few months ago. I have no idea where anything is alliance side.

Thanks, I feel better now. I'll be patient... I'm likely overreacting, seeing all those ".... decreased by 17%" nerfs over and over was a little disappointing. I got owned in PvP BGs, though that could be due to my newness and I dueled my friend's same level Ret Pally a few times and could not take him down. He has heirloom items, but in one duel he killed me without even attacking.... and Paladins got a buff! His DPS as a tank is also within 200 DPS of mine, though I admit mine is usually quite up there. Locks and mages tend to be close to my DPS too. Was fun while it lasted at least, lol
Found this video, ah it's just the Blizzard way I guess. Funny thing is I wanted to start off as a rogue but I heard they got nerfed hard, so I went with a warrior... reverse happened. kinda
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trvwVoLtqVI
I should start raiding, only been doing quests and instances so far... maybe when I get to 85?

I tried reserving some names for Cata. Worgendonor and Worgerine were obviously taken and I leaned towards playing a druid, so I picked Catdog... also taken. I ended up with Meowoof
It'll all make sense to people when I go into cat form. Oh and who else is going to the midnight release?!?! I'm not, I happened to preorder online so I'll stay in my warm house, tyvm.

Nom Nom Nom Nom
Gonna pick it up on my way home from work. I am pretty pumped about it.
I am just not looking forward to leveling all of my 80's to 85, but have to because of professions.
I think with this expansion, I am gonna take it easy. Not gonna raid as much and just kind of hang out and see the content. With WOLK, I killed Arthas, got the title and pretty much stopped playing.
I have:
80 Undead Mage (main) - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...uscrcle/simple
80 Undead Warlock - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...lothing/simple
80 Undead Warrior - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...onewise/simple
80 Undead Priest - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...onfused/simple
80 BE DK - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte.../saskat/simple
80 Tauren Druid - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...smallzz/simple
A bunch lower, but those are my current 80's. My goal is do have 1 of each. Shouldnt take me too long.
I would be willing to join an AZ group. Name the server and faction and we can get it going.
