Ya, that weapon is funny. I like it when people pull unused or future items from the mpq files and they show up on thott or allakhazam.

BTW, the key to killing a paladin (at lvl 60 anyway) is burst damage. Just before you think they are gonna shield, hit them with absolutely every instant attack you have and hope it kills them.

I started playing WoW on day 2. First with The Amazon Basin (an old D2 guild), but they were on an east server and I got sick of high latency. So I moved to a west server (proudmore, the unofficial Australian server), joined up with The Older Gamers and been with them since.

Rollback rumours.... great....

I've gone up about 11 levels in the last week or so.

I doubt very much they'll do a rollback.

Well I've made level 30. Not bad, although I imagine it will be much faster with my next character.

I have found that many warriors from level 40 down do not know how to tank well, or sometimes even at all. It can get quite annoying when the priest and mage dies because of the warrior(s) not holding aggro.

It takes time. Most players spend a lot of that time soloing, so there is little need for Defensive Stance. However, I spent 4 hours helping a druid smack up some Gnolls (I had already done the quest) just so I could practice using taunt.

I think by the time I get to 35 I should have it down.

To be fair, a lot of this has to do with priests and mages not knowing how to control aggro.

Aggro control is a 2-way street.

I enjoy playing in WSG. Sometimes you get a useless group, sometimes not. Sometimes the other side is all lvl 30s held at that level by players for whom they are alts just designed to whack newbies in WSG.

My dwarf now has what resembles two meat cleavers, one in each hand. Nice DPS. I made a lot of kills in my WSG game yesterday.

Hilarious today. I did a lot of quest stuff and the WD channel showed that Westfall was under attack, so UI gryphoned there.

A bunch of high level horde (at least one was a 60 since he had an epic mount) were attacking the area. That's lame. Westfall is full of 12-20s and no-one higher really goes there much. After watching them fight guards, we got fed up, flagged, and attacked them anyway (a 40, me and a stack of 15s or so) They got completely owned. I'm a level 30 and I killed one. Then he ran away from me when he rezzed. I mean, what a lamer.... I'm half his level and he couldn't stay to fight a noob like me.

A level 30 can barely damage a level 60. I have trouble believing that you killed one by yourself.

I didn't say that.

I managed to put 83 damage on him for the killing blow. I hit him several times for similar damage before that. There were a bunch of us attacking him, none of whom were very high levels. You don't get much damage from normal hits, but sunder armour and special attacks do reasonable damage. None of the other characters attacking them were super high level either. But the horde were all ??s to me.

I then went after the one I killed when he rezzed by myself and managed to smack him good again, but he ran away on his Krull horse. What a coward.

I wish I'd taken a screen cap of my combat log. It is true.

Presumably, they thought they'd raid Westfall and be powerful enough to discourage the lowbie people there flagging up PvP and attacking them.

No-one in our area was even close to level 60. The highest I saw was a 40 level Elf warrior. The fact remains: a party of five very high level horde players raided Westfall and got completely creamed by the much lower level alliance characters there. Admittedly the guards got involved and they are high level, but most of the guards were dead by the time we flagged up and went at them.

Guards respawn. And I highly doubt that 60 alliance weren't around. Horde go to Westfall on most servers and it seems like right away you get low levels to hearth to IF and yell for a Zerg.

I saw no level 60s there. Not one. And I made a point of looking. If there was one or two, I might have missed them, but we were playing against 5 very high level Horde characters. The guards at Sentinel Hill aren't all that anyway.

When I'm bored I'll watch the "World Defense" channel, and when those lowbie areas are attacked I'll ride up on my epic mount and start laying waste indiscriminately while they flee...

If I'm playing with one of my alts and I'm ganked, I won't hesitate to switch to my 60 (or the BF's 60 mage) and come back and play with them a bit.

I play a Druid (I have my epic mount but oddly, no decent screenshot of me riding it). Since it takes me a trillion years to kill anything I resort to making friends with the alliance. When I'm in an odd mood I root players and dance with them, then cheetah/kodo away.... it seriously takes like 5 minutes for a restoration druid to kill any competent player of any class - if they are 60, and killing greys is just lame.


Some people know how to get to the strangest places. I am one of those people.

You can play it on the highest setting with considerably less power than that, at least in the earlier versions.
