So now that the whole "group with people on real ID" thing is working, we could all group up for random 5-man content.

Anybody interested?

Kinda makes me want to resub, just to group with my friends cross server ._. then I remember all the reasons why I didn't do it months ago, it is still the same empty game world... When will they ever address the fact no one ever leaves cities anymore outside of doing professions?

It's like they spent so long in Cataclysm working on changing Azeroth and making the old world different, and no one even quests beyond level 10-15... Because that is the level they can just sit in a que and obtain more exp through the dungeon / bg system.

They didn't even intend for this to happen, they just wanted to give more options for people on how to level, and sadly most people pick the easiest route of standing in the safety of a main city.

People standing in Org/SW waiting for ques and raids has completely killed the immersion for me, and I am sure I am not the only one.

So, I just got free Burning Crusade and 7 days of claim time and a 10 day trial of Lich King. I don't know why, but I'm OK with this.

I would be.

Work is hectic atm so not playing so much, but when I'm on it would be fun to play with some fellow Neowin's. A spiritual successor to the Neowin guild perhaps?

[the evn show]

Maybe schedule a night and go on the weekend?

I could see Sunday's working good for me. I can make any night just not till later (EST).

[Prosidius]

Sure, I'm on pretty much all the time and willing to do stuff. My RealID is [email protected]. Feel free to add me. :)

[Ionium]

lol... I'm a level 62 human paladin and I ganked not one, but two blood elf death knights while out in the outlands, both were at full health :D

[Noveed]

Seems virgin media are having problems again with wow... SSDD the way they traffic shape is horrendous.

Had a horrible run at Nefarion last night. My internet kept crapping out on me causing tons of disconnects/lag, and I was supposed to be kiting the adds in Phase 1. :pinch:

Heroic Baleroc is probably one of the most boring encounters to watch. It's mostly about paying attention to debuff status, making sure you don't spread tormented around any more than necessary, and communicating when something is "screwed up" and you need to make changes.

Still trying to decide whether we'll start work on heroic Ragnaros after Domo or just get the glory drakes done.

Anyone have any input on a decent realm to transfer to? I'm on Khaz Modan at the moment, and the realm is just so lame. I want to have a change of scenery so bad.

Every realm looks the same. What you probably want is a different community. Maybe something with more RP, maybe something with better options for PVP advancement or maybe a place where pugs clear Firelands.

Without being more specific, it's hard to suggest anything.

[S00N3R FR3AK]

Well we finished raiding just in time to catch the end of the event for the legendary weapon. Cool that premo managed that. Even though its like premo then the rest of sen'jin always cool when when its your server up there.

Actually, I'm looking for somewhere where pugs don't fall apart after one wipe. I would enjoy clearing a raid with a pug because that is where I meet most new people and develop long term friendships.

I fell out of the PvP scene once they made the initial changes to it back in TBC days. I would tear it up on my enhancement shaman, but now he sits there and does nothing.

RP realms have intrigued me in the past, but I'm not really that much into heavy RP. I may do it occasionally, if the mood hits me, but I tend to stay away from it.

You're probably going to be happiest with a high-population realm with solid 10 and 25m progression. That's easy enough to find.

head to wow progres and pick any of the top-10 realms. Those typically have one or two "really good" guilds (people 6/7 heroic right now, that were 13/13 last tier). Several 'midling guilds (a handful of hardmodes down) and a truckload people just clearing out easy content every week (normal modes).

A setup like that tends to mean competent raiders looking to run easier but current content to gear their alts. mid-level guilds that need to fill holes in their raid roster, and lots of bored people who still think gear is important (which means lots of pugs for RBG/Arena/T11).

wow census to get an idea what the population is like (both overall and per faction). High population for the faction of your choice + solid wowprogress rating = a healthy pug community.

You lose some things for that trade off. High pop servers tend to have higher prices on the auction house yet it's more difficult to sell items because of all the competition from farmers. For your needs the gain will probably outstrip the loss.

EDIT: I don't suppose anybody else here is playing with heroic rag and has some advice other than "stack the hell out of your raid and keep trying until you don't suck any more"?

[Dotdot]

Was thinking about playing again after a small leave, but I want to find a solid 10man guild that would accept an old dog in full 359 gear

I loved this game for years, however after Cataclysm came out and my guild completed the content (new content that is) over the next few months our entire guild stopped playing the game. Most of us play Minecraft now or just other games.

i really hope the game becomes more epic again however, they are catering to folks that have never played rather than the folks that have been playing forever. still fun just feels like it has lost its way.

[the evn show]

I'm a bit behind on videos but here's heroic Alysrazor which is still one of the most fun encounters since the game came out.

Heroic Rag progression this week and still no stupid blue trinket. After I get caught up with heroic bosses I might make a short guide

to doing the legendary staff infusions / minibosses. They're not exactly "new content" but I think it'll be a while before I get to upload a

Rag kill. There's still only four ten-man heroic Ragnaros kills that we know of: 3 Asian guilds + Paragon.

I was doing some Random BG's last night and thought I'd fraps it. I hope you like :D

So, today was "start our third legendary staff day".

It was a bad day to be a moonkin.

evn. if I transfer my (sort of) geard rogue to your server, can you carry me through all of the t11 content? :p

I could, but you'd probably just pug it -- tier 11 is pretty much a joke now and there are pugs through bwl/bot/tofw on normal mode several times a day on my server (and I expect any server with multiple heroic-clearing guilds). If you're asking about T11 heroics + achievements (so you can get the glory drake), I could probably arrange that but it wouldn't be cheap -- I'd ball park it around half a million gold.

We MUST stay on page 1 :D
