Welcome one and all to the Thread of Warcraft! Here you may discuss the game World of Warcraft with fellow players. Talk about anything revolving around the game such as help, travel, updates and more!


I have some questions for fellow players. What server(s) do you play on? Alliance or Horde? What races and classes do you like?

I myself play Horde or Alliance; depending on which side my friends play on. I am spread through many servers but my current one in Aman'Thul (sp?).

Hit me up!

Character - Realm
Willowweaver - Aman'Thul
Yummehcandi - Terokkar

These are the characters I am most actively playing at this time.

WoW is a major game, way more major comparing to Runescape, You start out by making a character, out of 2 'Nations' so say, Horde or Alliance.

While those -- separate into different races:
Alliance: Gnome, Night elf, Human, Dwarf, Draenei* (Draenei is only available in burning crusade)

Horde: Orc, Troll, Undead, Tuaren, Blood Elf* (Only Awailable in Burning Crusade)

meanwhile these separate into different Classes:

(forgive me if i am missing anything in classes, and if i am, tell me, i will edit)
Gnome: Warrior, Warlock, Mage, Rogue.
Night Elf: Warrior, Priest, Druid, Rogue, Hunter.
Human: Warrior, Palladin, Rogue, Mage, Warlock, Priest.
Dwarf: Warrior, Palladin, Hunter, Priest, Rogue
Draenei: Warrior, Palladin, Shamman, Priest, Mage, Hunter

Orc: Warrior, Warlock, Hunter, Rogue, Shamman
Troll: Warrior, Rogue, Hunter, Mage, Priest, Shamman
Undead: Warrior, Rogue, Priest, Warlock
Tauren: Warrior, Hunter, Shamman, Druid
Blood Elf: Palladin, Hunter, Rogue, Mage, Priest, Warlock

All Races also have ratial Ability, for example, Dwarves can detect gold, Humans can see through stealth, Blood Elfs take away mana.

The whole area is about 40-50 times more then whole RS, Imagine, Whole RS is probably less then 1 zone in WoW in size, it is separated into 2 continents, one is mostly alliance, another is mostly horde.

as you can see this map shows the ways from one place to another on zeplin or ship.Darnassus is Night Elf main city, Stormwind Is human main city, Ironforge is dwarves & gnomes (this map is older but there are 2 more cities Exodar and Silvermoon), for Horde, there is undercity for Undead, Ogrimar for Orcs, Thunderbluff for taurens.

The Point of World of Warcraft from Blizzards view was a continuation of Warcfrat Series.
In warcraft Series, It starts out as a war of Humans and Orcs, while the idiots fight, a gate opens, yes, it's burning legion, one profit saw that day, and he tried to save everyone, Thrall (current leader of Orcs in Ogrimar) being a shamman, listened to the Profit and lead his race to the other land (thus the separation of 2 lands) while humans, did not listen to him, (Ruins of Lordaeron is undercity)and eventually, Undead, Turning more humans undead and gaining a huger and huger army by the second, was not to be stopped, but Prince Arthus did not care, he eliminated more and more humans that are to be turned to scourge, eventually, his heart became cold and all he cared about is killing a demon that was doing all the biddings of the lord, he took Frostmorn (a powerfull sword, WHICH IS the voice of the lord of Burning Legion, eventually, Arthus killed his father, and lead loarderon to complete death, there were humans that tried to stop him by making an Ashbringer ( a powerfull sword that DROPS in WoW) but nothing was saved, everything in Loarderon was ruined... Arthus and Kel-thuzad opened a dark portal, the gate to Burning Legion was open, thousands of demons, comming through, destroying everything, Humans, Orcs and Nightelves had no chance, but Nightelves, Sacrafising their Iternal life Tree, Banished the Lord of Burning Legion out of the land and overpowered the rest of demons, that is how the storry unwrapped.... WoW only takes place 4 years later, surprisingly.

On WoW, Ever since the begining of the game, you get to do Instances, for horde first instance is at level 13 and its called RFC, a simple instance where you kill mob by mob, easily done, then comes WC and VC, WC is Wailing Caverns, technicaly an instance turning druids dark and wanting to raise their dark lord up, VC, stands for VanCleef, the last boss of that instance, VanCleef was designing Cathedral for Stormwind City, never gotten payed for building int, VC went outraged and decided to make a ship that would destroy stormwind completely. Then Goes RFK, Gnomer, RFK is technicaly just a place with demon boars, something left over from Burning Legion, Gnomergan is an instance where the actual Gnome City used to stand, Eventualy, some Gas broke out, making gnomes go mad, some survived, some stayed there plagued, with their plagued king, then comes SM, Scarlet Monastary is place near Dead Loarderon (Undercity) where all the holy palladins and warriors grouped and fought off the scourge (The Leader of the SM made Ashbringer) its a lvl 30-45 instance (sm) with 4 sections, technicaly, the people in SM live in denial, they belive that everyone who dares to step on their land is Scourge. Then comes RFD (lich kings Kel-Thuzad's left hand partner boss lives down there). Then comes Zul Farak, a Place where a cursed sword was burried and Trolls keep protecting it and on and on and on.

Most instances are done as 5 man group, usually, 1 tank 1 healer, 1 offhealer/DPS, 2 DPS, that group is likely to succed if classes are different and they have crowd control (such as sap, sheep etc).

I'll Edit more in later, gotta play some RS :|

Not playing atm

I played at my friends house. I got to level 11. I play it when I go to his house.

I play it at my cousin's house. Level 7 Night Elf Druid I think.

Help site: thottbot.com

I began playing WoW in February after months of persuasion by several friends who had left RS for it. As I was bored of RS I started playing and I really enjoyed it. Got to level 63 after a month and a week of playing.

On this character.

Then I got bored in my 7th week of playing and started finding it repetitive and went back to RS. I might play again during the summer.

But it is a wonderful game. It just can't keep my attention as long as RS can.

Gah, I'll see if I can find a few pics of my character. Cousins are away this weekend so I can't play.

i played wow:bc at a friends house, he has 2 lvl 70's and a lvl 55, i got to say i love the game but cant afford to pay for it. i don't have a ccard. but there was a 14 day trial for wow( not burning crusade) and was only $1.88

Damn no life josh .

Didn't play WoW for awhile. Have to get a subscription. Might soon.

I started playing after I tried it out at a friends house.

Then someone gave me a 10 day guest pass, fiddled around with some characters and skills and proffessions and I liked it.

Bought the actual game + burning crusade, made a dwarf hunter at first which I got to lvl 20.

Then later I made a Draenei Priest, who after about a month is lvl 42.
All talent points are in shadow.
Elekk mount + shadowform is ftw.

Then as my subscription was coming down I decided to make a horde character, Tauren Warrior, only like, lvl 12 though.
I'm on the Darkmoon Faire server (role-playing), there's too many 'lol boys' on alliance side, the horde players seem more mature.

I haven't been playing since... March or April I think, I got bored of it after

people that dont like wow... sum things wrong wif em =P i dont have the game but i noe how to play it ( i ain't not that noob) usually i go ova my friends places and let me play abit , his guys r lev 70 rouge, lev 70 shaman, lev 19 priest full on twink gear!, lev 50 warrior when i do, i pretty much always go to bg ( battle-ground) or just do raid or quests if no1 at bg.

i just bought WoW myself the other day, so when i've finally downloaded it and ---- i'll post non here my alias, race, class, proffessions and realms

lvl 56 paladin Suffication, lvl 19 human warrior Sweets, lvl 24 warrior dwarf Wartanker, and my new 17 dwarf hunter retaliation and my cousin is a 61 gnome

I never even knew the world was that big

Oh god..

Well I've played WoW. Still do .

2 70's and working on the third.

All on archimode - horde - us server

70 shad priest, 930+ shad damage

70 dr00d 21k+ armor, 16k+ hp

63 huntard - MM spec.

I'm probobally gonna get
Dwarf Hunter,
Blood Elf Warlock,
or a
Human Warrior

I'm not sure and I haven't fully downloaded the game.

Good choices, you can have as many characters you want remember.

I know Ian, these were actually suggestions from my friends, so hats off to them if you don't mind.

But those will probobally be one my first characters. I'm probabolly gonna go Dwarf ( Shotgun )

Blood Elf cause Many of my friends stronger characters are Blood Elves so hell.

is wow worth it (world of warcraft) i get about 40 bucks a weeks i can buy if i want to but is it worth it and wht warcraft game is gud iam sure theres like 6 different types of them

There's two; the original and The Burning Crusade. You can always try the free trial to see if you think it's worth it; people have different opinions.

Don't ask for Warcraft, that's like Age of the Empire, the MMORPG one iis World of Warcraft. Remember that before you go in to buy it. Those are two completely different games, so remember that

after buying lord of the rings online and waiting a week, then finding out it wont work i've gone and orded WOW

Meh, I dled the trial, got a Gnome Mage, got to about level 10 and got bored of it. Might try making a different character.

Both types of elves are fun.

If you go rogue with intense training, you can use guns which are fun to use.
Dwarf hunters, don't have to go through intense training to use guns

Bows > Guns.

It doesn't really matter, guns aren't the almighty weapons so it's not like there imba.

Re-subscribed yesterday. Did a couple duo runs of Stratholme with a friend (Level 70 [Holy] Paladin), ended up getting an epic drop . About 200k off Level 64 now.

Re-spec'd from Holy to Prot since Tanks are always in demand in Outland on my server.

Guns are fun to use though.

I did my first EoTs today and looky



=D top of scoreboard, I'm a dwarf warrior , and the link I'm posting you can look at my gear my level and my spec, if it changed over yet for ms.

UUUGGGGHHH been in queue for EoTS and AV for an hour now..>.> POP UP ALREADY >.<

Oh btw...Only HLGPO in the whole game >=D

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/characte...tan&n=Hlgpo


It updates automatically btw

I want to subscribe but my bank card doesn't work so I can't.

Btw, if anyone from Europe is planning on playing, go onto the Darkmoon Faire RP server, you can find Jammi and me (when I subscribe) on their.

Made a Blood Elf Mage a couple of days ago. Never played Horde before, quite fun so far.

Josh, i forgot you're Wow Name, what is it?

Who has the Burning Crusade?

Are you still on Earthen Ring? I thought Oli said you moved to a different one.

My Blood Elf's Name is : Ustarte
My Human's Name is: Kárin




Yeah I bought it when I bought WoW. As it took my friends up until BC's release to convince me to play .

I do I do.

I bought WoW and BC together.

Got a shiny new Pony

I just want to say this game stole the lives of 2 of my friends and with the release of Burning Crusade it doesn't

look like it's about to give them back either .

woah josh, congrats man! thats a awesome mount

Since I bought subscription the other day I'll post a few pics of my Draenei shadow priest ;

Standing around in Shadowform:


Shadowform + Elekk:


On Elekk, normal. Elekk.


Being Jesus omg.

Ian, what interface mod is that? it looks hot

It's regular interface, just that I've used the actionbars, turn yours on through advanced interface options.

64 to 68 in four days .

New look:



My tanking weapon is this. I just screenied my axe because it looked better .

Updated character with shiny new items I got recently. Here.

I had a lvl 69 human warlock but I got banned for gold buying...go figure. But i think that they should allow gold buying because if you have the money, then you should be able to get what you want. My parents have hundreds of millions of dollars and I think that if I have enough to buy the gold then why shouldn't I. also, don't give any crap like, "It disturbs the WoW economy." There'll always be "gold diggers" so why not let WoW at least exploit them. If they were strict on gold buying outside the game, then they would close all gold selling sites and try to sue the ones running them.

Anyway...I now play on Kargath Alliance. My new character's name is Charmcaster, so add me if ur on.
Also, post some thoughts on gold buying in WoW. I think that if I were running WoW, I would set up sites under the company that sold gold, but didn't say that it wuz the company selling it because people like breaking rules.

Because it gives you an unfair advantage to everyone else, not everyone can just buy WoW gold.

Plus, why use REAL LIFE money for a game's gold, why not just use the money for more time on WoW?

Yeah I've heard about WoW, just never played it. Looks fun though and the graphics are awesome

Ps: Could you guys use spoilers for pictures?

~Weekend Dude~

Because I don't pay for anything. My parents do and I have no limit for how much I spend. Anway, as to the advantage thing. THat's the whole part of WoW...advantages. The paladin has an advantage over many classes so whose to say that all the other classes ask Blizzard to destroy the paladin class because they have an advantage. High lvls have and advantage over lower lvls. healers have an advantage over non-healers. Hunters have an advantage over warlocks. Etc.

This is my Blood Elf Pally, lvl 25 atm

Aellys

Most of the time i play on my rogue which is a lot more fun (i think) then trying to cut trough mobs with my pally

Serena

can someone pm me on what class and race and stuff i should be?

Finally
