[Official] Warhammer Online

So I need some tips on an extremely active server with some proper wait times

It'll cost you. Pick one with a queue but be prepared to wait when you want to get in though.

We're starting to get 10+ T4 scenarios a day now on Eight Peaks. Battles are often closely fought between the two sides as well and most of us are coming out with a quarter of our RR bar full (I'm RR22) and 13k XP.

The price we pay for this is a 700 person queue! :|

You do need to find some friends though. 4 people can change the outcome of a scenario. But if you PUG it you will likely loose because people seem to have the combined IQ of a goldfish.

you give them too much credit

if i had fraps and recorded the scenarios i did tonite, you would lose a lot of faith in the human race

I have no idea what you're talking about, almost every group I'm in knows what they're doing. I have faith in the human race.

Me too. They're doing an excellent job of fixing any bugs (far better than AoC was doing at launch) and the game is just so fun.

My main is a Shadow Warrior. While I generally like being a melee DPS class, I'm having the most fun with this one.

Oh, and they have definitely fixed the lag-out issues I was having, and it's not just a temporary thing.

It looks like I'll be switching over full time from WoW :yes:

The only thing I ever heard from AoC was that GM that had cybersex with someone...really shows class XD

Melee DPS is the thing...Myself is a Witch Elf, alright and fun class(except that my character looks like a ######), hit Rank 20 yesterday and getting my bum towards 21.

Its fun, and different from WoW in some ways. =)....

Scenarios are fun too..not really gotten much into them

Tiandira - 20 Witch Elf - Dragonback Mountain (Brokeback mountain..amirite?) EU

Can you guys post some of your specs that you are running the game on? I am going to be building a new computer end of year so I can truly enjoy the game (stopped playing recently because the lag really ruins the game) and want to see what specs work :)

Thanks

I REALLY wish they would improve the models for the elves, both realms. The way the males run makes me delete the toon after mere minutes. And I thought the Blood Elves in WoW were gay.

Loving the game though, most fun I've had in an MMO in years. Just wish I could pick one class to stick with...so many incredible options to choose from.

I totally agree!

Really want to play a Shadow Warrior but the animations / models just look like pure crap. Plus they need to add some proper hair for the males, from behind they look like women, which is also contributed by their bodies looking like a copy & paste from the female bodies with "Size +2".

Though most classes seem to bore me,

16 Zealot

16 Warrior-Priest

15 Chosen

14 Witch-Hunter

9 Marauder

6 Black Orc ( Current )

Every time I hit the Tier 2 Battlegrounds everything just grinds to a halt, the insane waits times and win rate goes belly up. I hope the ability to join all battlegrounds from where you stand will make the Black Orc more enjoyable, though its annoying to be more dead than alive due to the fact Destruction seems to lack healers big time. Annoying the Order healers are much more attractive to play.

Also, why are chat channels so dead?!? Also, a lot of people in game come off as elitists; the PvPers from WoW (no offense if anyone here is a PvPer from WoW, but most of them are asshats). Some things really put me off from this game. I got upto level 24 and it has been so quiet ever since I go into Tier 2. Scenarios have long wait times, fewer people are around, and the game just doesn't seem that fun anymore.

It was boring for me until I joined a guild; and it is true that NOBODY uses the area channels, unfortunately :/

I know what you mean. I made a female Shadow Warrior simply because a male would have looked like a female anyway :laugh:

That, and I was running out of cool-sounding male names to use (and the random name generator tends to have names I can't even pronounce).

Mythic is apparently in the process of taking down suggestions from the player base on what they want implimented in the chat system. Most people want a zone-wide chat, much like what is in WoW, instead of being limited to the little sub-zones as it is now.

Also, what servers are you guys playing on? I've been bouncing around a bit, trying to find one that is active, yet not too terribly overpopulated.

also theres the fact that trial accounts give infinite accounts to gold spammers.

im not against them, i just prefer when they give the actual game players the keys for trials instead, if you can give 5 or so trials in a month that would be preferred.

oh god

i can't believe the amount of gold spamming i get

i've stopped playing WAR all together till they fix the ignore list and people figure out how to do the BGs (or scenarios whatever they're called in this game)

i thought this was going to hold me over till WotLK but i was wrong

the UI interface is also terrible imo

can't even click on a players name in the chat window to send them a tell..... :|

WAR WOW (spaces don't show....)

Same game amirite? Not doing everything Blizzard did makes the game fail amirite?

Two different games....I don't know why people keep comparing them. Go at it at a different angle instead of...a game to keep me occupied until Wotlk, you're bound to hate it with that kind of an attitude.

    • Microsoft's Copilot Cowork now generally available with usage-based billing by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in March, Microsoft first revealed Copilot Cowork, a new agentic AI experience in Microsoft 365 Copilot through which users can assign tasks to AI to complete in the background. After testing the service with a limited set of customers in Research Preview for a few weeks, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork to customers in the Frontier program on March 30. Today, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork worldwide for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers. The company also highlighted that Cowork became the fastest-growing feature in the history of its Frontier program. Unlike regular Copilot Chat, Copilot Cowork can run complex, long-running, multi-tool tasks from start to finish in the cloud by using organizational context through Work IQ. When compared to Claude Cowork, Microsoft claims that Copilot Cowork will be 30% to 40% cheaper on average with its Microsoft 365 connector. For now, Copilot Cowork runs on Anthropic models, including Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6. However, Frontier customers can now use GPT-5.5. Microsoft also announced Cowork 1, a secure fine-tuned model coming in the next few weeks, which is designed to handle everyday Copilot tasks at a lower cost. To access Copilot Cowork, a Microsoft 365 Copilot user subscription is required. Usage is billed separately through Copilot Credits, based on model use, context retrieval, tool calls, and runtime. Pay-as-you-go pricing is set at $0.01 per Copilot Credit. To offer IT teams full control over usage costs, Microsoft provides spending limits, usage alerts, user-level controls, reporting, and prepaid usage plans for organizations. Usage-based billing begins today. However, Frontier customers who used Cowork between March 30 and June 16 will not be billed until July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Copilot app now includes a toggle to enter the full Cowork experience. Microsoft is also adding partner plugins, with Enosix, Harvey, LSEG, Miro, monday.com, Moody’s, Morningstar, S&P Global Energy, and TeamsMaestro available now. Adobe, Atlassian, Box, Canva, Databricks, and others are coming soon.
