World of Warcraft
 

After being in the chat for the last few nights I've learned at least 5 of us pixies play World of Warcraft. So out of curiosity, I was wondering how many of us Warcrafters are attached to this site, and what toons you prefer to play.

Horde FTW!


Blackhand server

I must confess that I started playing yesterday. :o

I am Horde, Detheroc server, as is Wilderness.

My main is a tauren shaman on blackhand.

I stand alone as the one and only true good one!

I am an Alliance I have a lot of characters....the main are Holy Priest, Holy Pally, Resto Druid, Warlock (70) 52 fire mage, and then a number of others. I had a 70 prot warrior but he is now entertaining a friend!

It's fun to see people that have similar interests!

(shhh don't tell but I also have a 39 holy pally on the horde side!)

I canceled my account of four years two months ago.

Level 70 gnome mage was my main. I was on the Llane server.

Warhammer: Age of Reckoning comes out on the 18th. I really loved playing WoW, but after four years, and hitting 70 less than a month after The Burning Crusade came out, I just got bored with it. I had been into PvP before TBC, but just couldn't get into it after the expansion.

I tried to play on the Horde side but there were too many 12 year olds over there.

That seems to vary per server. On blackhand most of the kids seem to be on the alliance side of things. I agree, I'm bored with the game and I've only been playing a little over a year. Once the expansion comes out and we get something new to do I'll be back on it more often than not.

I am a lilith of the all powerful she-beasts. I am a level 3897294057237548957892347 succubus and pretty damn tasty :D

I thought about sticking around for Wrath of the Lich King, but figured I'd just end up doing the same thing all over again. Rush through the new levels, then back track to the dungeons for loot.

At one point I belonged to the largest guild in the whole game. I just got tired of logging in and feeling like I had to be somewhere to do something. There's only so many hours you can spend in Molten Core, or ZG.

My guild is just full of my two friends' alts and all of my toons. If I need a group for heroics I'm usually running with my friend and member's of his raiding guild

At last count I had over 200 in the guild. And I spend half my game time playing mommy and listening to "he said/she said" or "he's touching me (and not in a fun way!)"

I joke...mostly....they are great people that have for the most part played together for about 3 years. We have a lot of fun.

Well hello all . Well Lilith im sure you are very very tasty. :licker:
I have a level 70 hunter , as you can see airy is the alt-a-holic lol . I enjoy playing still tho i don't know why some times lol.

Just slow down and enjoy the content. I have never understood that need to rush and be the first one thru the content....you get to the end and then are stuck picking your nose instead of enjoying the game.

Altho that leaves much more time for Pixies!

until recently I have played mainly Horde... lvl 70 forsaken mage on malygos that I rarely play anymore.

these days its ussualy my drenai hunter on perenolde lvl 32 currently

No lizards, so I stayed away from WoW.

Still dealing with Kingdom of Loathing, though.

There are lizards gecko. Roll a hunter. Then you just have to get to level 60. Then you can get a warpstalker. It looks like a giant lizard.

Damn right you are! :weg: :slurp:

As a player character, or a MOB?

As your pet.

If you want a reptile from an early level there are raptors, and crocoliscs. My hunter's main pet was his tiger, but I also had a bear and a raptor. Raptors look like the velociraptors in Jurasic Park.

I just got my open beta key for Warhammer. Downloading the patch right now. I'll let you all know what the game is like if you want.

I heard from a coworker it's pretty good even though he's not far into it. I'd love more details though.

Played about two or three hours tonight. I'm still getting used to the user interface. The UI is very similar to WoW, but I would expect that. I haven't played around with multiple action bars yet so I don't know if they're even available.

I rolled a Bright Wizard. Mainly because my play style is that I like to make things dead as fast as I can. So far it seems very similar to a fire spec'd mage in WoW. Except for the fact that if I unleash too much fire power too fast I can blow myself up. Which I've already done twice, once killing myself the other just knocking my HP down so low one hit from a MOB would have killed me. I think I will get him to 10 or 11 and then try a different class.

I really enjoy their Public Quests. In the one I participated in in the newbie area I placed first twice in a row because of the massive damage Bright Wizards can deal out. I guess I should explain what a PQ is. There are certain areas of the world that are marked for PQs. when you enter the area you are automatically in on that quest. There are multiple parts to the quest, each getting progressively more difficult. After the final part each person who participated in the PQ rolls 1-1000 the highest number wins a bag containing items that are guaranteed to be useful. The catch is you get a bonus to your roll based on how much you contributed to the fight.

That's about it for my impressions so far.

See, what attracted me to EverQuest back when I was playing was the possibility of Iksar (bipedal lizards) as PCs.

IOW, I'm a lizard, *and* I play one on-line.

Just remember, when you head to Shattrath at level 62 63 it doesn't matter. Be careful which faction you choose. Cause Everquest sucks. LOL. Sorry, I love the Jimmy story on youtube.

all alliance, on Aggramar. Shaman main

Yippee!!! Pack and I are not alone!!

Hey Jude, any new info on WarHammer?

So last official word from Blizzard...WotLK due out November 13th. Just the latest and greatest...wonder if it will actually happen then!

Woot! I already have my copy bought and paid for. I've just been waiting for release.

Open beta ended over the weekend, and the 6000 people who bought the collectors edition got to start their head start on Sunday.

CE was sold out by the time I decided to play it so I'm stuck waiting until Thursday.

I ended up playing a total of four toons. I played a Bright Wizard, Archmage, Engineer, and Shadow Warrior. Bright Wizard is basically like a WoW mage, but totally fire spec'd. Their different career paths, are basically a choide of DoT, AOE, and Direct Damage. He struck me as slight over powered in Public Quests, because the amount of damage, even at lower levels, was enough to almost always put me at the top of the contribution chart. The Archmage is a healer/damage hybrid for the elves. I liked him the best of the four toons I played. Very handy in PvP combat, since he always had something to contribute. I didn't play the Shadow Warrior much at all, they're basically ranged damage. That toon would probably be a lot more fun to play in a group, or PvP if you can get a tank to hold agro.

One thing I forgot about the Bright Wizard is blowing yourself up. They build up energy as they cast their spells, this energy increases the chance of them getting a crit, but the more energy they have the greater the chance of them killing themselves in a magical backlash. I find in game suicide hysterical at times. The one time I blew myself up was pretty freaking funny.

Any word on how much the monthly membership is? And if they give you that free trial like WoW? Might be worth picking up at some point to give it a shot.

Last I knew the price structure was identical to WoW.

If they start giving free two week trials I will let you know so you can check it out for free. Problem with 2 week trial though is the download. It was over 9gigs to get the beta DL'd.

For the Horde!!

And I do play Alliance as well, just mainly Horde. LOL.

I've got a 65BE Rogue on the Ghostlands server.

Ok , I've finally (yeah, I'm a bit slow at times, especially posting in "new" places) decide to add my comments. I've been playing nearly 2 years, after a co-worker "dragged" me into playing. I started as Alliance on Azshara, but wound up switching to the Horde. Currently I play mostly on Spirestone; though I do have characters on Azshara, Ravencrest, and Velen (for those rare occasions that I want to "get away" from the people I know on Spirestone). And since I get bored playing the same character all the time (which is probably another reason I have characters on 4 servers, lol), I'm running one of every class on Spirestone (my main is a 70 tauren enhancement shammy).

Currently, I'm more of a casual type of player, I've yet to do any raids (mainly cause the guild I'm in is still to small for raiding). My main focus currently is leveling my alts and prepping for Wrath.

Shadowsfate

:wave:^^^no that you've begun, there's no need to be quite so close-mouthed anymore.:)

No promises that I'll be more vocal, as I tend to be very quiet and keep to myself, until I know people better (I'm that way off of the net too, though I tend to be even less likely to talk to people I don't know very well). But at least one friend has encouraged me to post, so who knows lol

welcome to pixies Shadowfate...
just consider us good friends that ya just havent met yet :)


I let my WoW account lapse, I havent played in a couple weeks.
taking a short break before the expansion

Quite a few people are just chilling before the expansion. Others are starting to farm mats like crazy so they can up their skills. I'm still trying to play catch up so that I can actually be useful to my friends. I still don't have a flying mount which is actually something I need so that I can get to certain dungeons for when the ten man content for them comes out.

Get a partner, and quest in the 70 zones. At about 12g a pop it doesn't take long to get the basic flier. I think I made nearly 1k gold in five to seven days doing just that.

Just as easy to farm up the mats for heavy knothide armor kits and sell them on the auction house.

As I recall (my memeory isn't the greatest, and I did this back in Feb. when I first hit 70), I did something similar. I farmed a lot of leather, and made armor kits for AH and some items that I sent to my enchanter alt to disenchant and sell the mats on AH. I just wish it was as easy to farm for the epic flier as it was the normal flier, lol. (Probably doesn't help that as soon as I get some gold, it gets sent to an alt for training and rare recipes )
