World of Warcraft

Seems we've got a few Eve players so I suspect we've got some WoW addicts lurking in the corners looking pasty.

I've got 2 main chars, a 66 Alliance warrior on Karazhan and a 50 Horde Druid on Kazzak (my main).

Anyone else? Or should I say, anyone else prepared to admit it?

what server?

[escargot]

Wow, two 80's, that's commitment.

[escargot]

Depends what you enjoy most I guess. Personally, I like random PVP battles so I just level as quickly as possible then go and camp an alliance town for a bit. (And usually get my arse handed to me by 80s).

Just bought WoTLK. God. Silly me.

[escargot]

Nope, I play on a fairly basic laptop (bought 2 years ago) and it runs 'ok'. I have most of the settings turned down but it still looks pretty good.

It doesn't take that long to get through the new content, but it is much more imaginative than the old Outland geography. The dungeon instances are more linear and generally quite short, which for me makes for better playability. I just don't have 4-5 hours to slog through a raid! The new PvP area called Wintergrasp is good fun, with various mechanisms to ensure that it isn't the same faction that wins time after time.

Sounds good. I tried the 10 day trial and I thought the DK quest & storyline was very well thought through. Just looking forward to getting my druid to 60 so I can start a DK properly.

I'm struggling at the moment, not good being a noob! Think I'm level 5 at the moment, just need to get some decent weapons as almost everything except the lowest enemy kills me easily.

What server are you on? I'll give you a hand if you need.

What's the name of the server?

(No idea on the warlock by the way... never played one).

One thing that does wind me up, especially about Kazzak, there's always a fking queue at peak times.

[escargot]

There are but my bro & some of his mates play on Kazzak so it's useful for free boosts & ganking sessions.

You'll wonder how you ever did without.

Also, as someone earlier mentioned, two must have addons are Questhelper & Lootfilter.

[escargot]

Arggghhh fking queues!

[escargot]

I don't understand half of what you're saying and I've been playing for just under a year

[escargot]

The problem is, I used to play occasionally and just with my Bro and his mates. It was only ever small scale stuff so we never really got into the whole raid malarky. Consequently, I have no idea how good my gear is when people say 'LF good geared X' etc. I think there's a massive element of the game that I'm missing out on. Having said that, I also think it would demand huge amounts of additional time & commitment to fully enjoy. Currently I'm in no way able to devote the amount of time needed.

DPS = Damage per second.

[escargot]

I'm so tempted to reactivate my account.

Why? It is a tired repetative game that is constantly being dumbed down for the casual club. It was fun before the expansions came in since there was some organisation and skill needed for the top end stuff.

Yes I am elitist.

I'm a fully paid up member of the casual club.

Unfortunately I can't devote every waking minute of my life playing games.

Ahhh bks, why is it whenever I quit this game I end up re-subbing in a few months....

Think I am going to try a horde character this time, anyone recommend a good PVP server?
I will more than likely be an Undead Death Knight.

Kazzak.
