Thank you Requiem. That oughta be helpful in the future.

Starting up a Night Elf, dunno what class yet right now. Got a level 27 warlock and I'm at a point that if I play it too much I'm going to get bored or frustrated with the quests I'm on. So I figured I'd change it up a bit.

I changed servers. Archimonde is too crowded for the dial up. Taking me like 5 minutes to kill something, lots of lag deaths. Plus i'm not too big on RBM's group. Most of those guys have been playing too long, no sense in grouping when you're level 15 or so and everyone else is 40+
I'll look tonight at which one i'm on. Burning Legion sounds familiar.

Me, DS, and another guy I know in RL just started our own guild. We don't plan on being big at first, but we're hoping to start recruiting soon.

Finally hit 21 last night, so things are finally going good... half-way to 22..

Yeah we're probably gonna start a guild too. The one guy is level 50, and he joined another guild temporarily just to instance and stuff with. Once more of us get around 50 or so we'll probably make one. There's about 5 of us that are 40+ right now, so probably within the next week or two.

In the download thing, you'll probably want to download the Beta one. The Alpha one is nice, but it's their latest release one so may still be a bit buggy.

Also keep in mind, Cosmos has a LOT of features, so it may be overwhelming at first. :p Just mess around with it, it's really fun.

It was great.. DS and I just PvPed in Darkshore for like 2 hours or so.. died a bunch, but killed so many people that were higher than us.. God it was fun. Corpse camped this lvl 41 rogue (MUCH higher than us, and corpse camped us before).

Woooo I love PvP

Hah yeah, it's pretty fun. Earlier today a 51 Warlock rode by me in Hinterlands and I saw a group of Alliance chasing him. Naturally, I hopped on my mount and followed suit. It was like 6 people chasing this one guy. I anticipated that he was going to turn right so I veered off a bit to close the distance, then when I got close I PoM/Polied him, and he got raped. Good jolly fun.

Last night I was on a rampage too. I soloed three Shaman (separate occurrances), which is no big deal but it was satisfying since I loathe that class with a passion. Hinterlands is great for grinding though. Probably gonna hit 48 before I log tonight.

Requiem
01-07-2005, 09:21 PM
I have to admit after playing one for a while now, shamans are pretty powerful. I took out a NE rogue who was 4 lvls higher than me last night, and made it away with 43 hp just by kiting him with my frost shock.

But, there are still classes than can destroy shamans, such as warriors (god I hate them) Paladins can beat shamans, but only if the person knows how to play the char because we can disrupt their heals. Also, rogues -should- be able to kill shamans, but apparently most rogues don't know how to play the chars... Priests apparently I've heard can kill shamans as well.

But yeah, mainly only melee classes can kill shamans easily. Casters are screwed because of disrupts, and hunters are just screwed either way because they're a shitty PvP class.

RBM
01-07-2005, 10:55 PM
I personally haven't run into any problems with pvp on my druid other than completely unfair fights (someone multiple levels higher). Melee characters are retardedly easy to beat with permaroot and cheetah. I really haven't tangled much with shamans, but I'm assuming they'd give me the biggest problems. Priests too, probably. Healing and slow are evil.

Rogue gank attempts are really getting old.

Requiem
01-07-2005, 11:47 PM
Heh, yeah.. druids die easily to shamans. I kill higher lvl druids -all- the time and still end up with 40% or above hp most of the time.

lol how do you die to warriors. You're the most overpowered class in the game, and you lose to the most underpowered?

Requiem
01-08-2005, 04:26 AM
The only reason they're underpowered is because their aggro is messed up. Aggro means nothing PvP :)

No they did fine with the hp for classes, but they messed up on how 1 point gives 10 hp for every class. It should be lower with casters.

No. Actually, the problem is that base stamina doesn't mean shit. All classes gain a certain amount of stamina every level, but it doesn't actually add any HP because of it. Only buffed/item stamina does anything. That's why mages have more HP than a warrior, which is meant to tank things. Granted, warriors can still tank well because they don't take as much damage, but they -should- have more HP than any other class.

There are HUGE threads on the boards about people bitching about this problem.

road doggy dogg
01-10-2005, 02:25 AM
Why is that even a bad thing though? Oh no, heaven forbid good items are actually worth having. If a Mage has more HP than a Warrior, then either the Warrior sucks shit, or the Mage is severely lacking in mana due to focusing more on Stam than Int. Or a combination of both.


And there are threads on the forum bitching about EVERYTHING. The majority of Blizzard's fanbase are 12 year old spazzes who don't know anything at all.

This one friend of mine, she's low level so I help her out levelling and stuff, and we were in Westfall (hella newbie zone), and we were duelling each otehr for shits and giggles, and some level like 16 Night Elf came up to us and asked us to invite to party. I told her to get nekkid first, so she did. Then I told her to dance on me. Then we both just ran off. It was fun. Nudity is awesome. Stupid panties though (actually panties a re hot)

You're not understanding what I'm saying. Base stamina = nothing. This is the best thread I can find about tthe subject.. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.aspx?FN=wow-general&T=561346&P=2

Blizzard says it's supposedly working as planned, but yet warriors don't gain HP every level, even though for some reason they gain stamina which gives them hp? It doesn't make much sense, and everyone argues that it's simply broken and blizzard won't admit it.

It's like this.. Warrior gains stamina, supposedly gains HP from that. Next lvl, warrior just gains HP, less stamina... But somehow it's the same HP as the last lvl?

Apparently this is only a problem with warriors because of the fact that they don't always gain certain stats on level-up. Hence why a mage and certain other classes can have more HP than a warrior, because they're gaining stats faster and more often than the warrior.

Anyway, that doesn't really have anything to do with the PvP topic.. just thought I would clarify what the problem was. It doesn't have to do with what gear they have... strip away all the gear from an equal higher lvl mage and warrior and I'd guess that the mage would have higher or nearly equal HP due to this problem.

I've been doing a lot more PvPing lately. So much fun. Blizzard is sexilicious. Today was in Alterac, passed by a group of four 27-35 Horde fighting a mob, just rode by on my mount. Then I figured I'd go have some fun, so I turned around. Came up ot the group, unleased a Blizzard on them. The blizzard itself killed 2 of them (<3 low life Priests), then a Fire Blast, Cone of Colt, and Arcane Explosion later I was the only one standing. :) Blizzard rapes in mass PvP. God I can't wait till 52 for the next rank. I must say I'm pretty disappointed with my lvl 50 spells. OH WLEllllllllll tiem for bed.

Also, Maraudon > you

Apocolyptik1
01-16-2005, 08:34 PM
hehe maraudon is fun.

I went and did a little in game research just go see what requiem is talking about.

I made a warrior and a mage, and played both of them til 10th level, neither of them had cool items, just to see what the health difference was.

The difference is, mages dont get near as many hp's per level as war's do. Right off, war's start out at 1st with the most hp, and they get the most hp per level. The mage was getting like 20-30 per level and the war was averaging 40-50 per level. So their's your difference.

I could see how a mage could get a lot of hp, but they have to sacrifice something to gain that hp. Most mages go stam + int, and they sacrifice agi. A war on the other hand, doesnt really sacrifice anything when they get their hp buffs. You dont have to go agility, because war's dodge bonus is real lame, and you get to wear plate eventually.

I cant stand when people complain about classes. I see it everyday in the general chat. Either someone is complaining and bitching about how 1 class is WAY stronger then another class, or someone is complaining about 1 particular thing with their class. I think the classes are fine the way they are. If blizzard would go and change something, more people would bitch about whatever they changed, and talked about how this class is to overpowered and this class is to underpowered. I dont think any of the classes are underpowered. All of the classes can have really strong builds, for certain things.

War's arent good for 1v1 pvp, but if you stick them into a raid, they serve a lot more of purpose because they have a lot of crowd control.

All classes have particular things they are better at then other classes.

Requiem
01-16-2005, 09:41 PM
You have to go higher than 10 to see what the difference is. Read the boards, and you'll see the formulas that people have figured out about how warriors end up with less HP than mages. Eventually, all mages get is cloth equipment (obviously since they can't use higher than that).. and it just adds mana and HP.. they'll end up with more.

I was pissed the other night and deleted my shaman and was about to roll alliance, but a friend convinced me to remake, and I went with a troll rogue.. only reason I went horde was because I liked shamans when I played beta.. *shrugs* Oh well..

Requiem
01-16-2005, 09:44 PM
Also, they just made Onyxia un-tauntable. Fucked warriors over in raids now.. Granted, they still do DPS, but they can't gain aggro as easily anymore.

Someone did a comparison between warriors and paladins each at lvl 40 or so.. same lvl, same instance gear... Paladin out-DPSed, had more HP, and had invulns and heals... also got aggro more than the warrior, and the warrior couldn't seem to keep aggro even though he was trying like hell.

More reasons a warrior is gimped..

I understand what you are saying about sacrificing, but come on... sacrificing agi? Mages have literally 0 use for agi in the first place, so it's kind of silly to say that.

Anyway, Warriors will always be gimped. We always joke with the one warrior in our guild about how awful they are. The best thing ever though, was when he Charged one of the Deeprun Rats, and MISSED, then the rat hit him for 1 damage. He was level like 45 at the time. gg warriors.

Orc Warrior: [Orcish] We bored. Looking around. Tell pink-skin in tin covering we rip his head off and use neck for [indecipherable] if he wants fight.
Interpreter: They're exploring the region, and have no hostile intentions, but will defend themselves if necessary.
Paladin: Hmph! Well, tell him we'll be watching and if they make one wrong move...
Interpreter: [Orcish] My leader welcomes you to the region, and hopes your stay will be a pleasant one.
Orc Warrior: [Orcish] Ha! We do that with or without welcomes. Tell him stay far away, or we kill!
Interpreter: They are grateful for your benevolent countenance and will not pursue any antagonistic behavior, unless they experience it first.

01-28-2005, 04:32 PM
Yessss that's right, get sucked into the gameeee. :cool:

And yeah, the professions are cool. It's a shame Tailoring is so utterly useless, so far. The only good thing about it so far is the bags obviously, but having an 8 day cooldown between making 16s bags (4 days per mooncloth) sucks. It would be nice if there were some decent high-level caster gear you could make with Tailoring. All the Runecloth patterns suck, to be honest. The Mooncloth ones look pretty nice, but have absurdly low drop rates for the patterns, so I doubt I'll get any. Easier to just farm gear from BRD. *shrug* But yeah, Smithing and Leathermaking get pretty nice once you get into the different branches of them and all.

I would stop engineering now, unless Blizzard admits to fucking engineers over, and makes them better..

At lvl 300 engineering, someone posted that he got one of the rarest drops.. it was the first Arcanite Mechanical Dragon on the server.. it takes over 240gold worth of items (he could have made that much by selling all the components that took him a month or so to gather), and it made a lvl 60 dragon that ended up being a tiny ass thing that was pretty much a whelp... and died with no trouble to a lvl 33 rogue.. It has like an hour cool down, and only lasts for a VERY short time.

Talk about a waste... Coolest items in the game my ass... if you go for it, don't bother getting it to even 200, as only the cooler items are in the low end.. High-end engineering is worthless.

ALTHOUGH there is a 'Other' tab which is empty atm, but hopefully they bring in the server migration thing quickly enough so I don't have to start my character over again, and can just move to Archimonde. :o

lol.. you're an idiot. They're working on -one time- server transfers so that they can merge people from crowded servers to less crowded ones and actually balance the server populations. As it is, some servers are unplayable because idiots refuse to restart characters, so they'll simply endure terrible lag.

Well to simply put, you didnt say all that in your first post. You said server transfer, which doesnt necessarily mean that they are transferring characters from high population realms to lower population realms. When I see server transfer, I think of some lameass who built up their toon on a pve server just so they could transfer it over to pvp without any hassle of actually trying to level in a pvp server.

This happened with every other mmorpg that did it, so lets not start calling people idiots.

road doggy dogg
02-15-2005, 12:13 PM
Yeah, if they allowed transfers from PvE to PvP that would be fucking retarded. From what I understand though, the server migration is only to ease some of the strain from high-pop servers elsewhere. I'd assume that if you're in a high-pop PvP server (Archimonde, Warsong, etc), then you'd have the option to move to a low-medium population PvP server, and not an RP or PvE one. It would be nice if they restricted the transfers to similar type servers, but I'm not sure how they'll do it. I just hope they do it relatively soon.

I say good.. paladins needed a good nerf, as do shamans (even though I played one and loved it).

They also fixed a belt that was used by a lot of melee classes to get out of root/entangle effects. Was a right-click belt, and the cooldown was broken, so it had NO cooldown. I'd say that's a pretty good fix at least..

Paladins are fine the way they are. Sure, they're a bitch to kill, but their DPS was already low. Mind you, I'm not complaining that they fixed this, but it's not like Paladins are godly and can wreck you in 5 seconds.


Rogues are fine the way they are, because nobody wants them in raids, so I'm happy that I never have to see them except in Ironforge.

road doggy dogg
02-16-2005, 05:46 PM
Paladins aren't even overpowered at all. They are bitches to take down, but their DPS is horrendous and they have no ranged attack. As a Mage on Alliance side, I find it disappointing that I don't have the opportunity to fight Paladins other than in duels.

DS
02-16-2005, 09:40 PM
Yeah totems need to be nerfed. I mean by the time I'm getting attacked and drop the 3 that I need I have 3/4 health and almost half my mana gone. Then by that time I need to buff up real quick and do a couple quick heals and by the time I'm ready to fight I have 1/4 mana and a quick frost shock gets rid of that. Maybe overpowered if I gank but I'm hardly nothing against rouges, mages aren't much against me I'll give you that, I can take pallys now, before they were a bitch, and now that I'm about to be immune to fear sometimes (having nothing to with being shaman) I'll be able to take that. I don't see how overpowered really. I mean really.




Really.

road doggy dogg
02-16-2005, 09:48 PM
LOL what. Mages are generally one of the few classes most Shaman fear, and with good reason. Other than Frost Shock, Shaman are kinda easy for me to kill now.

DS
02-16-2005, 09:51 PM
It's not that hard if you drop a grounding totem and have earth shock ready. They deal massive damage but if I have enough mana to keep earth shocking then I can usually get them down or kill them. ES, GT, etc can usually block a lot of spells. After I'm out of mana though it's quite hard.

Wait till lvl 60ish when your frost shock does 1k+ damage with crit.. that with a slow effect is going to be impossible to deal with.

Everyone is better at 60. That doesn't mean we're overpowered.

02-16-2005, 10:35 PM
I honestly can't believe you still havn't admitted that shamans are overpowered. Other classes get nerfed, and the only thing that happened to shamans so far is that earthbind totem got a longer cooldown. I'm sure RDD can agree with me that shamans are -the most powerful- class in the game. Yes, they can be killed, but very scarcely, and only by -very- skilled players.

DS
02-16-2005, 10:36 PM

02-16-2005, 10:38 PM
And of course he will say so, he stated that easlier in the thread. I'm not saying their overpowered, but they aren't as powerful as you're making them out to be.

road doggy dogg
02-16-2005, 10:46 PM
Shaman are a class that, without any skill, are kinda crappy. A Shaman in good hands will beat pretty much any other skilled player playing another class. They're great at deleeing melee damage, and with mail armor are still good tanks. Their nukes aren't as potent as a Mage's, but still sufficient. And don't give me anything about running out of mana fast... my friend's Shaman (well not really my friend but someone I know :p) has over 5k life and 4k mana, unbuffed. The highest rank of FS costs 430 mana, and that's assuming you never gain Clearcasting (which you only need 1 talent to get, as opposed to the 5 it takes Mages). True, if you're just a noob and you just spam FS every 6 seconds (5 with talent), and heal when necessary, then you'll probably lose quite a bit of duels. Shaman is a lethal class when played right, as opposed to say Rogues, who even kids with down syndrome can play effectively. So yeah, Shaman are 'over-powered', but only if they know what they're doing. They have pretty much all the benefits of any other class [nuking, healing, tanking], with very few of the sacrifices that other classes are restricted to.

I dunno, they're not as bad as they seemed a couple months ago, but that's simply because my perspective changed and I can rape most Shaman relatively easy now. *shrug*

DS
02-16-2005, 10:52 PM
I only have 2k mana barely and I don't have my clearcasting skill so it's kind of difficult for me sometimes. But yes, that does help a lot.

And I never said they weren't overpowered, it's just everyone says that they are so why should I go around repeating everyone. I won't complain if they get nerfed because it's not a big deal to meal. I picked shaman because I liked to spell cast, melee, and be able to solo as much as I could.

Hahahha

So yesterday I was just in West Plaguelands farming some runecloth (huge ass bag order :mad: ), and I'm killing the 4 skele mobs outside the Crypt in Sorrow Hill. Some 58 shaman comes up to me once I'm done (and at like 300 life and 500 mana) and kills me. Then he spams his stupid ass macro:

! |2 3 |\/| 3 |\/| |3 3 |2 |_| \/\/ |-| 3 |\| ! \/\/ 4 $ |_ \/ |_ 24

Translates to: "I remember you when I was lvl 24"

So anyway, I walk back, and being no coward, I rez next to him and take him head on. I get him down to about 10-20% life (not bad considering I was totally unbuffed and had half life/mana) then died. He spams his macro again.

I call RBM over (who happens to be nearby). The shaman sees RBM, whos only level 52 at the time so he must be thinking it's easy pickings so he goes after him. I rez behind him, and rape ensues. Of course, being the oh-so-clever guy that I am, started spamming:

! |2 3 |\/| 3 |\/| |3 3 |2 |_| \/\/ |-| 3 |\| ! \/\/ 4 $ |_ \/ |_ 60


It was fun :'(

I agree Road rog. I was in Ravens of Stormwind on Azgalor, the biggest server on their for alliance. Has a total of like 265 people, and I hated it.

Rejoined a guild with a guy we know personally and we keep the max at 40.

It doesnt really change with different games, its always just personal preference. I like the guilds smaller because I dont have to learn new people all the time, I get to keep track of everything, and I can manage it better because of the small amount of people. That and 40 is the max you need for any large raid in this game currently. We have done MC a few times, but have yet to do Onyxia yet.

No guild on our server has tried Onyxia yet, any of you guys done it?

road doggy dogg

Our guild personally hasn't. A horde guild on Archimonde, Discordia, killed Onyxia about a week ago. Big thread about it on the Archi forum. AFAIK no Alliance guilds on Archi are even close. There's Dogma, WMD, and Misfits, but they're too busy chipping away at MC. I don't believe anybody other than Discordia has killed Onyxia on our server

I had a quality guild on Gorefiend. It was two seperate groups of friends that had combined to form the basis. I just happened to hit it off with the group and so for a good bit everyone knew everyone and we recruited maybe once a week so that the new member got the majority of the attention. Then all the sudden everyone wanted something huge, so we disolved with 3 other small-med guilds into one giant one. I haven't liked it much since. I don't really like joking around in guild chat cause we merged with a bunch of smartasses and little kids. So I started some new horde guy on a server called Uldam cause some of my buddies from work were just starting out.

So long story short . . not a fan of large guilds.

The Snake
02-28-2005, 08:07 PM
Also wanted to say even though alot of people think its puss. I've tried a normal server and I like it a good bit. Gives you a chance to get established and level, and still be able to fight it out if you want to. The only difference I see is that you're not at the mercy of the same 10 retards that sit around in Desolace and Stanglehorn griefing all day because they've ran out of stuff to do at lvl 60.

You still get flagged for PVP the second you attack an NPC of the opposite faction, or set your flag to PVP. But have the freedom to go about doing your missions if you want also.

I love the guild I'm in.. they've got good structure/rules, and they're all really helpful. I've been helped out with some quests randomly by some of the higher lvls, and I helped out a low lvl guy with a quest I did a long time ago. Plus, I really want to do the end-game, and I know the only way it's gonna be possible is with a guild that can actually get 40 people on at the same time for a scheduled raid. Not gonna be possible at all in a lower guild, or if it is, it won't be possible nearly as often.

We basically only had 12-15 that were lvl 48+ along (a few lowers came a bit later on) and it was tons of fun. Slaughtered so many horde yesterday. We aren't big enough or high enough to do any major damage yet, but we're getting a feel for the PVP raids.

Yeah i'm in a pretty big guild, they seem pretty friendly, and i've had some help and some stuff made for me, etc. Obviously since I dont know anyone in Europe I can't join up with people I know, hopefully the server transfer will come into effect soon. I've made a couple of fiends seperate to the guild, we all teamed up and quested together, some really polite people on WoW.

I still don't really understand what a Tabard is, like it just looks like some white vest, so I didn't bother buying it. But if it changes to whichever guild you are in, and you only have to buy it the once, I think I might do that. :o

Oh yeah and I play in non PvP, and i've still had loads of PvP fun on it, a few of my recent quests have made it so that I have to go into areas with loads of horde guys there, i'm thinking it would be really gay and annoying if they just had the ability to kill you while you are trying to a quest, I bet I wouldn't be half as far as I am now if I played PvP :mad:

Yeah i think once you know the starting 2-3 areas well enough 1-20 should be a breeze. I remember my first consistant character toook me about 3 weeks to get to 20 playing pretty heavily, cause i had no idea and had to find everything for the first time. The second guy I made took about 3-4 days to get to 22 with minimal time. First because I knew the area and the missions, so I could put the quests together more effeciently and second cause the first guy had money to send to gear up the second guy.
All the way to 60 though might be a task. With the # of exp points needed to go from just say 39-40 you're talking a long day.

Lvl 57 druid now. I've kinda been slacking on the leveling and mostly helping the lower guildies with their Mara/ZF, etc runs as of late. I can beat RDD in a duel maybe once out of every 5 tries currently =p (druids arent that wonderful in duels)

Me and DS made new characters on another server we plan on playing now, and got them to 21 in only a few days. I've got a mage, which are a shit ton of fun to play, and he's got a priest. Also, RDD... what talent trees should I go? I've heard fire/arcane, but I'm pondering going the less travelled route and doing frost/arcane..

Depends. Fire/arc is easily my favorite way to go. I personally hate ice. Yeah ice block and ice armor are okay, and in large-scale pvp ice mages have much more survivability, but fire is just so juicy. The DPS is right up there with rogues, and with some of the new Dire Maul shit coming out, our crit chances will be through the roof.

Right now I'm mucking about with some different builds... in my alla link, check out my Talents tab to see what I'm using. I'm definitely respeccing sometime this week though, I wanna try out Ignite with some other things.

I hate reading threads and listening to guides and all about talent specs. What's the point in having your own unique character if you're just going to copy somebody else's build? I'd much rather experiment and find something that works for me. I'm kinda happy with my current build but lack of Ignite makes me cry.

Yeah, but you didn't play for years. AC patch days were eventually hell. Rollbacks, server outages, and just general -unplayable- game lag. Which is bad, considering the game was the least graphics intensive of any MMO except for UO. Was still a fun game though.

Seems Archi's been up and down all night.

You Horde or Alliance?

I have a 60 rogue named Calameth on alliance. I also have a 30 warlock and "had" a 36 paladin. I didnt like paladin. It was boring as hell, so I deleted and rolled a warlock.

I have horde characters on Sargeras. Highest one I have I think is a 23 shaman. I havent played horde as much because I started with alliance and got my guy to 60 kinda fast (because I lived in the game for about 2 months). My 60 guy has A LOT of gold, and whenever I feel like starting someone new, I always have money to give to him and twink him out. It sucks having to do the same quests for alliance over and over again, but I play because pvp is real fun.

Rogue's are very fun if anyone wants to try one out. The only thing that sucks about them is that their are to many rogues in servers, and in higher end raids, its hard to get a party because you have to compete with so many other people.
