So I decided to take some time today to level my enchanting some, while also building my personal rogue army for the coming PvP phase. Plus a druid for good measure

Got my first gank as an undead rogue on a PvP server.

It felt great. I get it now.

Dwarf hunter. Only 1 level below me. Ambush crit for like 70% of his health. It was everything.

Can’t go back now.

I have no intentions of griefing or camping low levels players that see me as skull level. That’s wack af. Dishonorable.

But anyone within 3 levels either direction is catching these hands.

Yes, I will be vanishing and sprinting away if it doesn’t go my way. I will be waiting for another opportunity. That’s just the business.

I remember getting ganked by rogues back in 2006 when I leveled a warrior, very slowly as I was a literal child. I didn’t get it then. I get it now. It’s the best wow experience to be had.

im a pickle

im a lvl 38 warlock but im getting kinda bored of its gameplay. especially in group content. I miss hitting things with my weapon. I would hate to restart at lvl 38 but Im afraid i may not enjoy if i push forward. or maybe I will lol. Theres also sooooo many warriors and thats usually my main class but im afraid finding a raid spot or groups will be harder because there are just so many warriors lol. ugh anyone been in this boat before with a late reroll?

Weakaura health/mana ticker

I have seen a lot of tickers on people’s health/mana bar that shows when you will regenerate. I have the mp5 weak aura but it’s kinda ugly lol was looking for the one that just the little white bar that fills up on your UI. I can’t remember what it’s called but I know I saw it in some videos

Rerolling

I’m playing my first healer this time around on fresh and went with a human priest. After doing some research I see that dwarf is a much better option for raiding. I’ve already got to lvl 30 on my current character and got the name I wanted, do y’all think it’s a good idea to reroll to drawf or stay with the human?

Why won’t DPS warriors tank in lowbie dungeons?

I’ve been playing Hardcore, and haven’t quite hit the level required for dungeons, however I keep seeing Warriors look for a tank for dungeons and stuff, even deadmines. I was under the impression you tank as arms spec in low level dungeons, so why do these DPS warriors want a tank if they already are one?

Am I wrong, do you not use a 2h weapon and arms spec to tank low level dungeons?

New player, what version/server?

I’m super confused because of all the different versions and servers. Whats the best pick for a new player? I’m familiar with MMOs (played lots of OSRS and some others). Tried hardcore because I liked the idea of it and saw lots of content creators playing it, but I’ve already died and I’m sure it’ll happen again.

I want a server thats got high pop, but my main concern is picking a server/version and regretting not having picked a different one.

Are horde players more chill than alliance?

Still leveling, currently lv 35 horde priest, running a lot of dungeons and questing. I have yet to have a toxic interaction with other horde players. In fact I'd say most of the dungeon groups have been very wholesome and helpful towards each other.

  • No bitching about loot
  • No bitching about someone doing low dps
  • No bitching about people pulling

This is almost impossible to not see when playing alliance

PSA: When looking for a layer hop, please say "LF layer hop *off layer (your current layer)*"

Too many guildies and people in global chats are asking for layer hops but not mentioning what layer they're on. If you don't know what layer you're on, download the addon Nova World Buffs and it'll tell you. If you don't know what layer you're on, or you do know but don't mention it, I'm not going to bother inviting you because you could already be on my layer and it will waste both of our times.

Guys, I need your help on deciding what to play.

So, I unfortunately couldn’t start playing Anniversary Realms right away as I had to study a lot for my college exams and finally tommorrow is the day I will start.

I just cannot for the life of me decide whether to play Classic or Hardcore. I have never been to level 60 in Classic Wow as I am a relatively new player (started in 2019 on Classic launch and quit before I got to 60).

Recently I played Hardcore with my friends and even tho we never reached 30, I probably had some of the best gaming sessions of my life. Hardcore really gets me hooked.

On the other hand, I’m scared if i get DCed od smt or just missplay that I might lose the will to play if I die (we go agane obviously) and I really don’t want to miss out on any content. It’s basically a high risk high reward thing. I really want to experience the thrill of Hardcore but Im scared of missing out.

Any advice is appreciated, I’m literally stuck in a loop of indecisiveness.

I’m a classic noob. Noob question

I have an alliance in Nightslayer and a horde in Dreamscythe. Do people in this PvE realm PvP at all such as WsG? I’m just curious before I lvl up this horde.
