I was talking about after-patch :p I've been playing for near 10 months.

I've heard the opposite. I've heard you can have the full 10 per server. Who knows.

Yes, it's my understanding that you can have 10 characters on a server, and you can use 5 different servers. So, you can have a total of 50 characters.

I just want to say that right now after the last week with the issues with the login server I really dislike Bliz right this minute. I do understand that issues to come up but the login server issues have come up WAY TO MANY TIMES over the last few weeks. Not to mention the fact that you can no longer post on the forums cause of that issue. Blizz really just needs to fix this issue once and for all it has been long enough already.

I've been looking in getting WoW but I?m not sure. I'm Wondering if you can have more then 1 character with you account, can you join other servers not just stuck on my one server, how easy is it to lvl, how big are the worlds.????

I agree. I've had the game all of 3 days and so far I've spent more time downloading a required patch through P2P (which is complete crap) and missed an entire afternoon of gaming due to servers being down. I've read through the Blizzard forums quite alot and many, many people are complaining of poor support service...which is what we get for $15/month (plus $50 for the game).

One thing Blizzard did do right is give a free first month for trial. From what I HAVE played in the game, I love it. This is my first MMORPG experience and aside the cons, it's been great. But, when my free month is up and issues like this are still plaguing the game...it's just not worth it. Come on, Blizzard, get it together. I know you can.

This Game is great! Probably the best most addictive game ive ever played. I recommend it to all my friends ... They buy it and love it.... This game made me not want to finish HL2... Yes they are still working out some stuff to make the servers run smooth.. but its worth it... They just released a patch that fixed a few things... But are working on more and should be released soon... Once they work out all the problems which shouldnt be long... This game will be FLAWLESS... I have faith in BLizzard.. Yea so its 12.99 a month... (went with the prepay for 6 months) ... There is a reason why you pay monthly.. They add stuff to the game all the time... Think of it as paying for expansion packs... And if your still worried about the monthly fee.... If you dont go to Mcdonalds 2 time in that month you can use that money towards it.. If there are people out there who still are undecided... Buy the game.. Get into the Windrunner Server and start questing with people ... you wont regret it. :alien:

Well, last night I did manage to pull a 4 hour session, questing with someone who knew the game pretty well. I went from a lvl 1 human priest to almost lvl 7 in that time.

Now THIS is what I was expecting from the game.  :D

I've had the game for about 20 hours now, and I've been playing for about 10 of them (no life...help me...)

I'm already level 12 and almost 13. Tee hee (plus I worked on a human mage myself, got him to level 7)

For the people asking about the snowman quest. Here is the deal.

Goto Ironforge and talk to Greatfather Winter as well as the gremlin dudes about the quests you need. Now the problem is to get the snowman quest you need to be close to lvl 30 because you have to kill an 36+ Elite Grinch in the mountians. Anyways after you beat him (after getting the stolen treats and talking to the snowman in the mountians you will get a mail from great father winter that gives you the snowman spell. It's a soulbound item so only you can use it.

my new pet got my warlock to lvl 20 this pet took about 5 hours to get sooooo much running around

also the SS looks like Crap becuase converting from taga to jpeg kills it

also i have to turn my Vid setting down because if i dont my 9600XT goes nuts

i get texture sound patch Wmo.mpQ errors i still get them with it turned down but not as many

newest chipset driver and bios

Only certain classes can get pets, Warlocks get minions, Hunters can tame and I think one other class can have a pet as well. I believe rogues get a mount as well at level 40. But no, you must be a certain class to get a pet and/or mount.

I wish i could buy a horse or animal to ride on :-(

I agree. It is supremely ludicrous that Blizzard chose to penalize players with the lack of viable trasportation until so reletively late in the game. Then again, they have followed the MMORPG recipe from the 90s to a 'T' so I don't know why I'm surprised.

I wonder if this is the 'mythology' elite quest I have in my log. I have spoken to the guys in IF and don't have another quest that could be a snowman quest. What is the exact name of the quest?

    • I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.
    • The funny thing here is that like 70% or so of the web browser users use 'Google Chrome' as web browser. What I don't understand is that why on earth would ANYONE choose 'Google Chrome' on Windows when 'Microsoft Edge' is not just better in most things, but it's already there right out of the box for the Windows users. Microsoft Edge has less data collection (yes, that's a fact), less RAM usage and is more optimized for Windows (as it's a Microsoft product) right out of the box. I'm sure you will come with the argument of bloat in Microsoft Edge. Sure, but most of that can be fixed with a simple tool (there are many good ones out there for this). Yes, that require a couple of clicks in the same way as it requires several clicks to install 'Google Chrome'. And I'm sure you really love the 4 GB of AI-slop 'Google Chrome' is downloading without you agreeing to it. Fun right? Sure, the way Microsoft is pushing Microsoft Edge on users might not be the best way of doing it and might need to change. But I would never choose 'Google Chrome' over 'Microsoft Edge' today anyways. I'm sure there was a period back in the days when 'Google Chrome' actually was better in most things, but that period is not today.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
