All my friends are going to warhammer, i said i'd see them in a few months.

Is it just me or do I feel like i've put in way too much fucking work to piss it all away and become a noob again. I play the game b/c I enjoy it...wow killer my ass. We'll see what happens.

9/12/2008 3:42:03 AM

It's going to be a time sink either way, Id rather spend it playing a new game then on a boring expansion.

9/12/2008 8:17:09 AM

I got a beta key yesterday



someone buy this bitch off me.

Resto on the druid, since you can make really good healing gear with tailoring and enchanting isn't that much of a waste. Fury or prot on the warrior, shaman I'd say resto or enhance. Having a prot warrior and being a good tank will take you lightyears in the game, as opposed to just another DPS.

You're becoming a n00b in the new expansion anyway; all that work is basically for nothing but good memories. I'd rather go with my friends that you can keep having fun with.

That link just takes you to Toonstorm once you drill down into it. Is markeedragon your site (affiliate credit?).

I would have hoped my account would be worth more than 100-150, given the stuff that is on it.

I have a 70 lock that is decked out in T5 with some T6, and has some decent PvP gear.
I have a 70 druid that just has kara gear, i typically just use him to make money with his alchemy procs.

9/13/2008 10:35:20 AM

it is not my site and it is not toonstorm if you use the forums to find a private buyer.

9/13/2008 11:25:54 AM

well, combat is now worthless

but assasination is hilarious now if the target is vulnerable to poisons

9/13/2008 10:13:49 PM

WotLK to be released on November 13 2008
That's it, the WotLK release date is now definitive and the game will be available in store on November 13 2008. The source is an advertisement on Wowhead, which also happens to be an official Blizzard fansite. It means :

* We're now 2 months away from Wrath of the Lich King
* Patch 3.0.2 will probably be deployed on live servers very soon, probably in mid october.

So I got a pre-made 80 in the beta and tooled around Northrend. The atmosphere/areas/music are really well done. Makes BC looks pretty dumb in comparison.

9/15/2008 9:31:18 AM

time to poopsock my alts to 70

9/15/2008 11:17:54 AM

For those in beta do we still get to use our flying mounts or is it going to be a waste of gold for me to buy them now?

9/15/2008 3:37:04 PM

well then sometime late November WoW will start getting money from me again, but probably only for about 3 months before I get tired of it again.

9/15/2008 3:48:45 PM

^^ can use it in northrend at 77

9/15/2008 4:04:33 PM

so from 70-77 it's back to the normal mounts?

9/15/2008 4:05:41 PM

Anyone want to buy a beta key?


Bidding starts at $100

9/15/2008 4:14:33 PM

^^ yea

9/15/2008 4:19:53 PM

what are you guys planning on leveling first?

9/15/2008 5:02:15 PM

shaman, then warrior, then warlock

9/15/2008 5:50:54 PM

rogue - then it's a toss up between hunter and warlock

9/15/2008 6:14:49 PM

warrior...then umm nothing I guess.

9/15/2008 7:53:44 PM

The dr00d. I already have 4/5(8) of my feral set even though my main spec is resto so cruising through the levels will be nice.

My 4 undergeared 70 hordies are going to take more time though.

9/15/2008 9:58:31 PM

been playing a premade 80 holy priest...sure it looks pretty but its the same rat race at the end of the day...ive played the endgame too long to care to do it again

/snore

9/15/2008 10:02:03 PM

I'm sure Derek hopes that stays the case.

9/15/2008 10:05:05 PM

preorders?

9/16/2008 9:46:41 AM

I went to Gamestop yesterday to preorder mine and they said they've been accepting preorders for over a month now.. I was like wtf?

Best Buy, Circuit City, Gamestop and one other place is accepting them.

9/16/2008 12:06:17 PM

do they have box art and shit now at best buy?

9/16/2008 2:14:38 PM

how many of you homos will be waiting at midnight?



other than me, of course

9/16/2008 2:15:27 PM

i will be

9/16/2008 2:41:14 PM

I did that for burning crusade, but when I know I wont be playing as much as before (and certainly not grinding to 80 even a fraction of the speed I grinded to 70 at heh) Im probably just going to pre order and pick it up the next day. we'll see though, they just opened a new gamestop like .5 miles from my house.

9/16/2008 2:43:29 PM

I'll be going to the gamestop in RM for it.


And I just took thursday/friday off from work. I needed to burn some vacation anyways.

<--- And once again I am dragging the girlfriend along to wait with me. I already have both the copies I need preordered as well as one of them upgraded to the Collector's Edition.

9/16/2008 4:06:34 PM

gonna pre order, take the day off work.... o wait no

gonnan pre order, pick up on wya home from work, hopefully all the mouthbreathers are out of the way so i can have a bit of space when i start my dk

9/16/2008 6:42:45 PM

HockeyRoman, where did you pre-order the CE?


porcha's old warrior has been on a new account for 8 months now. At this point all they would do is ban my account with the warrior on it screwing us both over.

9/16/2008 7:41:20 PM

what does the collector's edition come with?

--nevermind, found it:

Good luck with that

9/16/2008 8:58:40 PM

i preordered a collector's edition at the gamestop in crabtree.

9/16/2008 9:10:57 PM

to come back, or not to come back....I wish it were still the age of my old dorf rog'

9/16/2008 9:41:04 PM

Ill probably take off work friday as I also have vacation days I need to use up by the end of the year.

9/17/2008 8:59:44 AM

anyone with access to beta forums wanna post this for me?

Quote :

"Right now I've read ghostcrawler's posts that rogues are being changed a little at a time. I'm hoping this change can be made official before things start to solidify and changes are much harder to get in. Currently, expose armor is nearly a completely wasted spell as it consumes your combo points to keep it up and completely ruins your dps cycle AND it's only useful without a warrior present as the 2 don't stack. I propose a change to the tier 3 talent in assassination. Make improved expose armor give an "expose weakness" debuff, adding a temporary armor penetration debuff to the target after say a critical attack on a poisoned target. The debuff lasts ~7 seconds and the amount of armor scales with attack power. This gives the talent (and the class as any build could utilize the talent) some group synergy we so greatly depend on to be effective and an ability that scales for pvp. My other suggestion is that the 51 point talent in combat or some talent deep in that tree, be replaced with a blood frenzy effect that will stack with blood frenzy. Something along the lines of whenever rupture is ticking on a poisoned target, physical damage is increased by 1/2/3% or just a flat 4% if you make it a 51 point (currently the 51 point talent in combat is pretty bad for non-solo pve). You could call it Aneurysm or something. Both of these talents would definitely encourage rogue pve participation as we lack buffs, meaningful/unique target debuffs, and any sort of symbiotic synergy from day 1 to now. I really must say job well done with the assassination tree so far though. It's been great being able to enjoy daggers again."

9/17/2008 10:29:14 AM

Is the regular Expansion set going to come with a DVD-ROM like the CE? 4 more CD-ROMs would suck

9/17/2008 11:15:00 AM

there goes the nerf on the poisons

[Edited on September 18, 2008 at 1:37 PM. Reason : i stand corrected]

9/18/2008 1:32:18 PM

yeah, wtf? no other class has talents that are cut in half to segregate pve and pvp.

9/18/2008 9:06:35 PM

lol


and wtf. tooltip for that brew shit still says instant procs deadly, but it's atually proccing fucking crippling.
