I got an 20 tauren warrior there that I play when I don't fell like playing my 60 dwarf warrior.

I have a little problem with my warrior dilemma. I am thinking of rolling one because they look so fun and I want to raid/pvp/do everything :D. Anyways, I find a lot of guilds require at least tier 2 or tier 3 to raid. Also, there are so many warriors so it might be hard to find a guild. No idea what to do now :s

So 3 guilds have downed Kel'Thuzad which is the boss of Naxx. Better badass if you ask me. Alot of good loot is dropping so far which is real nice. I realize I'll probally never get there and all, life is too busy but it's cool to know.

There is alot of warriors out there but on my main server (Khaz'GoRoth) alot of them aren't that good at there class. If they are a tank (proc) they are crappy at keeping aggro and if they are MS (arms) that aren't too good, if they are DPS (fury) they aren't to good. They just don't know how to play there class.

Personally I my 60 warr is a MS (Mortal Strike) and I do a good amount of damage (usually top 5 beating out mages occansily) and in PvP I do damn good. And I tanked UBRS as a MS 2h warrior. Had a warrior in group that was proc speced and couldn't keep aggro for **** I did better than him. I just studied (lame ain't it?) and learned differnt ways to play (and having a cousing that played a 60 warrior for a year all specs that gave me tips didn't hurt either :)). Go ahead and play a warrior and just learn the class inside and out and find a guild that's just starting off raids if you want Tier armor and work up with them. A MT is the most important thing to a guild and if your good they will keep you and make sure you stay happy. :)

My personal view on warriors maybe someone out there who knows more could correct me if I'm wrong in either way.

I play when I feel like it.

Sometimes, I feel like browsing the net, sometimes I feel like raiding or leveling one of my alts. I used to play A LOT, but now my time is split with other things.

When you first start, you want to play a lot, because well, there are tons of fun things to do. However, once you start doing all those things, its still fun, but then there are other fun things outside of WoW to do too. (however, you still enjoy those times when you stay up waaaay late raiding) :)

My personal view on warriors maybe someone out there who knows more could correct me if I'm wrong in either way.

I have a 51 gnome warrior, and I have to say, being a warrior isnt as easy as being a rogue. My main is a lvl 60 rogue with 12 epics. Basically as a rogue, I spam buttons as fast as I can. I still can't believe that I havnt worn my 2 key to dust yet. (Thats my backstab key). However, they still are kinda hard because you have to stay alert 100% of the time to keep your dps up, however you can't overdo it or you will pull aggro.

However, warriors are much harder because you have to deal with the dumb rogues and other DPS classes that like to pull. IMO, it is probally the hardest class in the game. You have to carry around different sets of armor, pay crazy repair bills when raiding, and be 110% focused at all times. I highly sugguest being a warrior only if you are willing to be devoted during instance runs and like to take it hard. :p

Overall though, just choose what you want to do. I know that I've been trying to find the perfect alt. I got a druid to lvl 45 before realizing that I can't stand to heal or go feral. I got to 51 before I learned that I just can't be that devoted as a warrior. I'm still messing around, but I guess once your a rogue, your always a rogue.

Priest talents and spells are at best underwhelming.

Mass dispel is just a gimmick that will be almost non existent in raiding situations and in pvp you'd burn too much mana if you used it often.

Discipline tree is now just a dmg reduction tree without anything that's super cool. It'll be for pvp only, and even then its nothing huge.

Holy got a few nice little talents, but nothing that's gonna be WOAH when you get it.

Overall, very disappointed. They left Lightwell, which is the dumbest talent ever, and made shadow more powerful.

I hope they review and tweak it alot before releasing.

Warriors are easy if you're not an idiot. Once you learn how to get that initial aggro, it pretty simple from there on out.

very simple. sunder, sunder, sunder, shield block, revenge, sunder, sunder, shield block, revenge, heroic strike, heroic strike, shield block, revenge, sunder, heroic strike, etc etc over and over.

lol blasts me up to (and keeps me at) the top of the threat meters pretty darn fast let me tell you.

I was thinking of getting WOW but I am curious to know of how they handle idle accounts over a period of time?

Lets say I create an account and dont play for two months. Do they delete the account?

No, you can remove payment and they will freeze the account up to 6 months i believe.

Blizzard said they will try never to delete an account, even if its left unpayed for months, however i belive there is a small clause which gives them the right to delete an idle account if they really need to (disk space?)

how ever you should be safe for a good few months of idle (without payment)

if you keep paying they will never delete your account ofc :)

I go through stages of playing 24/7 then not. At the moment Im not, and i wont for a few months. then Ill jump right back into it.

Yeah im exactly the same. Currently i'm playing again.

In all I have 8 characters, all but 1 is Alliance. I played through with 2 of em to thier 50s but I keep wanting to try other characters. I usually end up playing em till about 20ish, then I use my friend's 60 Rogue to dual log and twink myself to 40 cause the whole Redridge, Wetlands, Duskwood, Stranglethorn Vale, Ahari Highlands, Alterac Vally & Hillbard foothills quests get boring after doin em twice, especially with all the running around back and forth. Plus I play mostly when theres low population so getting groups is very difficult.

I play on Perenold server.

56 Female NE Rogue

52 Female NE Hunter

40 Female NE Druid (Feral)

40 Female NE Warrior

40 Female NE Priest (Shadow)

35 Female Gnome Mage (Frost Tree) --- My current Twink

16 Female Human Paladin (going to reroll a Blood Elf Paladin in expansion instead of playing this one)

24 Male Tauren Shaman

So last night, after the 3 hours of downloading (230 kbps) the 2.84 gig file decides to tell me that I need to insert Disk 3, and that one of the 5 files was corrupted. Now, to me, this seems like a problem that Blizzard should know about, rather than having tons of trial users download it, and be ticked off before they even begin the game, :[

Blizzard has failed me before with Diablo II LOD server downtimes with no response, I would think having the biggest and most active mmorpg they would be ontop of things.

Who says it isn't your Anti-Virus, Firewall or perhaps your own connection screwing up the download?

The download location is rarely the one to blame ...

I say it isn't.

I didn't have trouble with the actual DOWNLOAD. It was when I tried to install it that it said it needed Disk 3.

I took some screens for you.
