Sadako - 48 Undead Warlock: Lethon Pyramidhead - 24 Undead Warrior: Lethon Dominia - 19 Blood Elf Paladin: Tichondrius Sasori - 35 Blood Elf Rogue: Coilfang Alliance Aerisdies - 23 Draenei Shaman: Bonechewer Tuepac - 3 Human Warlock: Bonechewer Nyoron - 30 Draenei Priest: Burning Legion Kelvena - 23 Draenei Mage: Burning Legion I'm currently looking for a place to dump Sasori, my BE Rogue. My friends and I want to move from Lethon to a server that's not too dead and has competent end-game players as well as decent to awesome PVP. Any suggestions? What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I would say travel over to Ursin, but the only basis for that claim is that it's been around for quite a while.
The pvp over there isnt' too bad, I play a BE hunter at 70 and well, the only thing that usually gets me is a lock that sneaks up on me, or when you have alliance holding hands and skipping through the fields in a group of seventeen thousand. The arenas aren't that bad either, it's just you get put up against the eventuall pally team, or warlock team and for the most part they just blow you up or wear you down, one or the other. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Basically, the game is really boring right now. The only thing that keeps me playing is the people that I play with. But even so, I've taken a hiatus from raiding.
And it's not like I've been relegated to clearing 5 mans in pickup groups... my guild has cleared to Lady Vashj and has killed Void Reaver in Tempest Keep (although it's arguable as to whether or not any of this is actually fun.) I'm waiting to see what this supposed "solo" content has to bring to the table in the future. I've been hearing some stuff in regards to single-player dungeons...but I don't know how much validity it has, and I don't know how soon to expect it. But if the end-game raiding continues to reap less rewards than simply grinding arena honor in a terrible team that doesn't win any games, then I think that WoW may have finally stopped being worth playing. There's nowhere I can't reach.

You want to grind arena? Just have a pally and a shadow priest or a lock and a pally. Mmmm that reminds me of the good ole arena days when my friend bubbleheal and me Krushak. Just sat there raping Arenas, the only time I think we ever lost one game was cause of the fact that we got out done by a shadow priest + I think he was a holy, maybe protection pally cause he had avenger sheild. Either way the DPS + bubble heals and etc kept us from taking them down but we faced them one more time and we just raped the shadow priest and then the pally. Piece of cake. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I would have thought 2 Shadow Priests beat a Shadow Priest + Pally. Sure, you don't have solid big heals, but with both SP spamming the shadow spells + Vamperic Embrace, it will be very difficult to not get healed back to full in no time.
Me, as a warrior with great dps gear, I sometimes couldn't kill a shadow priest at all. All the damage I did was pretty much restored back to him straight away. Seriously they can be scary with 1000+ shadow damage gear and imp vamperic embrace. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? Soldier: Prepare yourself, rebel scum!!

Would quit if it weren't for the fact that my best friends can only be reached through this game =\ What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
My interest is dwindling extremely. I'm taking a small break to see if that rekindles any spark. If, when I come back, the spark hasn't been relit, I'm done for good. Just not worth it anymore when I know I won't see much of any end-game.
FELIPE NO |
My warrior hit 40 last night. Got a mount using the funds I transferred over from my main (about 400 gold, give or take), but now I'm at a conundrum.
My current spec is 0/28/3, or to be more accurate, this: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=TZVVzV0gRbZc My question is whether I should stick with this build, starting on Flurry and getting Bloodthirst at 43, or if I should respec to full Arms and get MS. Here's my warrior's gear: http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/#c...ood&n=Kinkatsu How ya doing, buddy? |
MOOOORTAL STRIIIIIKE!

Canceled my account today. After going about a month without logging on, I figured I was getting to the point where I was wasting money.

I came twice, but each time I regretted it. There's so many better things you can do then repeat crappy instance #5 every day. I still think they shot themselfs in the foot with how crappy the expansion is.
I heard a rumor about a Starcraft MMO, which is obviously not gonna happen, but if it would, now THAT I'd go play. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. Soldier: Prepare yourself, rebel scum!! Arngrim : (These slipshod soldiers think they can call me "rebel scum"?) |
It's not that I mind running places like Steamvaults and Shadow Labs, its that I have my good days and bad days. I always seem to get the most shittiest grouping on my bad days (and I get blamed for countless wipes, blah blah blah). Also, I'd like to see end-game, but I want to see it to have fun and not to be a little worker drone that has to show up or they get the boot. I wonder when the point the game became a job was... o wait, when they got people who were the hardcore elite to help design the dungeons. Right.
Most amazing jew boots |
Ah...I have stories like that my friend. You see, for a while nobody ever wanted to do the regular non-heroic 5 mans with me, because they were more interested in heroics or other instances, so I had to use that horrible find group system.
I got the WORST possible groups. It was so bad i usually had to explain everything. My worst experience with this is when I was trying to get the wrathfire handcannon. I did SL for 2 weeks straight, like 3/4 runs a day and it never dropped. Now it not dropping is fine, but not when you have to use these horrible, horrible groups.

Well, what really made me quit was that I put well over a year into the end-game raiding, worked my way up to get into one of the top 10 guilds in the world (we even had a world first on one of the Naxxramas bosses). And then with the expansion, we're forced to cut our numbers by 15 from our core (we kept the number of accounts in our guild really low -- around 50 active players). Raids go from needing 3+ of every class to needing 3+ of everything except maybe mages and warlocks, pretty much (thanks, Soulwell).
On top of that, the gear that we were even getting from Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep were pretty much worse than what you could get from Karazhan, and arguably worse than what any schmuck could get from grinding PvP (which doesn't even require you to win to get). I really feel a little put off and underappreciated for the 2+ years that I spent playing. Of course, I realize that the hardcore raiding community is a lot smaller than the average/shitty ("casual") playerbase, so Blizzard must bend to their will to keep raking in the dough. Maybe WoW will become worth playing in two years when 80% of the players have quit and Blizzard will need to do something to appease the hardcore players to keep them around. Kind of like EverQuest. But I don't suppose they'll care much if they have Starcraft Universe out and raking in billions. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I've gotten groups that just made me zone out completely (as in I just sit and stare). They would fuck around and wipe.. and wipe... and wipe. Now I'm all for fucking around, and I've been in groups that we've goofed off, but also everyone had their head out of their ass and knew what we were doing. Currently I'm 900 rep away from Revered with CE and 400 rep away from Rev with Thrallmar. I'll probably never see those two through to Revered, much less Exalted. I've got some "epic curse" on me it seems. The only BC epic I have, is that Planar Axe that I spent 500g to craft.
Funny that a game that was touted as being "anti-EQ" and "all play styles" seems to be centered around raiding or PVPing. I'd rather solo stuff and do stuff with my small group of friends than still have to join a guild to do end-game. :\ I'm not cut out for MMORPGs it seems. FELIPE NO |
People with lives are not cut out for (being good at) MMORPGS. Don't feel too bad~
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Well, I'm a good player. I've had people ask my why the hell I'm not in a big raiding guild. Simply put, I treat it as it is, a game. I don't treat it as some huge e-peen fest of having to have the best stuff and flaunt it around. (Although I wouldn't mind having me some of that T4 and 5~)
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
There's many reasons that made me quit, but the new 25 man raiding was amongst them, and also the fact that all the gear that I collected for more then a year was instantly crap. I mean at some point I had the best tanking gear around and then *poof* it's gone. I even had to stop using the Thunderfury because it was crap. ;_;
Constant warrior nerfs didn't help either, and my interest in general was rapidily decreasing. How ya doing, buddy? Soldier: Prepare yourself, rebel scum!! Arngrim : (These slipshod soldiers think they can call me "rebel scum"?) |
Patch is confirmed to be tomorrow.
...Woo? This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
I think it's fair at this point to say ::noonecares::.
How ya doing, buddy? |
For as long as the patch notes are, this one just felt like a big tweaks patch of stuff that needed to get taken care of. Only this will likely include the "break all the mod functionality" just like every content patch always does.
I was speaking idiomatically. Thank you Guest for the kickass signature! |
All my mods worked fine.
Also, in other somewhat related news, my paladin did an almost full run of KZ on Monday. Aaaand since I've waited so long to do anything with my guild due to work getting in the way and what-not, pretty much everything was rot. I ended up with Boots of Valiance, Pauldrons of the Justice-Seeker, and the T4 helm. Not bad for my first somewhat full run of the place. Fun stuff. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Yeah I was completely astonished when I logged in and none of those crazy messages came up on how mod x couldn't do something on line 159495.
Grats on the loot! FELIPE NO Thank you Guest for the kickass signature! |
I think I got into a "permanent" Karazhan group as an OT. This is my third time in the place and I fully understand I probably won't be a "main" goer, but more of a backup when that other's guild's other tank can't make it, but it's been pretty fun. We got to Attunmen but that's it. (really didn't have the healing nor DPS to do much of any damage) but that's all apart of learning the place. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I get "phat lewts". Next Kara run will put me at honored and if we can take down Attunmen, then I'll be able to purchase a couple of the epic blacksmithing plans from the stables.
Oooh! Has anyone started those new faction quests? I started on the Skyguard to get a Nether Ray. It's going to be tough since they're all being farmed to hell and back, but those Nether Ray mounts look cool as shit. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
