This level I got a far sight spell, meaning I can see into the distance. I'm sure it'll turn out to be useful, but haven't used it yet.

You ARE getting pretty tough now Tarj, no mistake. I think I'm right in saying that if nyou the same spell more than once against a player it has less effect each time, so it's best to use a combination. I'm starting to think that Shammies aren't that overpowered really, especially when in one on one PvP. We're pretty handy to have in a group situation as back up tanks and healers, but when I duelled you yesterday I had no answer to your spells apart from one totem that helps dispel fear. My only chance is to try and slow you down with shocks and totems, and batter you with my huge new axe, but I'm not confident.

I'll have you know I'm quite a hit with the Orc laydeez!

Funniest moment yet on WoW. Dan, TRL and myself had just ganged up on a level 30 elite, and saw him off with hardly a scratch, here's a picture of us wallowing in our new found glory: A little bit further along, was his MUCH harder mate, but buoyed by our recent conquest, bravery got the the better of common sense. As we all prepared to attack, it noticed Dan and killed him stone dead in a split second. Cue the now not so heroic me and TRL running like the clappers to the hills out of harm's way! Well I guess you had to be there!

I can't remember what level they are, but I'm assuming mid to high 20ish elite based on the fact that the area round is manly L20-22. If so I'm sure we could have a go at them with TRL's assistance anytime really. You AND Si would go through them like a does of salts, like you did with that big rock eejit last night. I need to do that q in the thousand needles tonight (where the bat is, Freewhateveritscalled) as I'll then get heavy armour patches, making me even more overpowered. Quick Question for the WoW dads (ie Nays and Simon!). Is it best to keep your weapon skills fairly balanced? I played with a one hand axe and shield combo up until about 3 levels ago, when I switched to either a 2h axe or stave. My 2h axe and stave skills are now 125/125, but everything else is less. I prefer the 2h option, as it obviously deals out a lot more damage, but I take a big hit on the armour side of things. Which do you reckon is best? On things like Shadowfang I prefer the meleeing side to healing, but that obviously puts more of a strain on healers like TRL.

So Juju, have you had a go yet? If you have, make sure you join the Deathwing server, and post your character name on here so us addicts can help you out. TRL made a good point in the game last night, it's funny to go to areas where you've previously had your butt kicked, only to return as a higher level and exact your revenge, most fun. I'm looking forward to being able to batter those 3 elites that that patrol up down the road in the south barrens, they're most annoying. Who's up for the WC tonight, I could do with a few decent drops, as my next lot of power ups are probably going to set me back at least 4G.

Hey I can ride a hoss too when the time comes, whether I choose to or not is another matter. A horse gets you 60% extra speed, but I already get 40% from my wolf skills. I almost certainly will though, as riding a steed through a land marks you out as being high level. And yes we'll have to go back to Tarren Mill. After I checked the last q, the next one was to kill a load of peasants, which I'd have thought would have been easier, as you're not looking for specific named targets. I'll help you with the elixir q's too although I've already done them, as they involve slaughtering various bears, spiders and lions for parts, and I could do with the leather. I think we should all post our professions by the way, so if we end up with something someone else can use, we can post it to them. I'm leatherworking and skinning, so any decent patterns gratefully accepted.
-
Free? Even better then. You can stump up for the VT Villains guild fee then , and everybody can pay you back. I've got about 12G, but Si and TRL were pleading poverty! Oh and do something about that hat. You're obviously going for the Gandalf look, but the effect is more student wearing a traffic cone!
-
Ah they're the very best looking horses, nice one Nays, well played! Bit skint now are we?
-
I only seem to generate threat if I use shock spells. I was trying to shock the farmers first to get the agro, but they were attacking in two and threes, so it was difficult to take all the agro without using all my mana. Still I think we managed pretty well, considering we must have had 4-5 attackers at some points. Going to head back ther tonight as the Q's are quite good, and give good XP. I'm only about 3,000 XP from L26 when I get another load of new power ups.
-
I actually got my patch from Fileshack, as the waiting times to download have been drastically reduced to less than a minute. I downloaded it really quick at an average D/L rate of about 140k! Fileplanet (the other mirror site) is wank though, as they want to charge you to download anything. I'm nearly at L26 now, after a raid with TRL on Hillsbrad farm, where we kicked some serious, serious ass. That is until we'd finished the q and were making a run for it. I turned round to see about 10 farmers following Tarj, Benny Hill style, all in a line. I stood there so long laughing that a few caught up with me and ganked me too! It turns out that putting a whole load of stuff in the auction house late Tuesday night was a bit of a mistake, as due to the down time nothing sold! Is anybody after specific bits of armour. I quite like the "of the Fang" stuff so if you see any and you don't need it, let me know and I'll buy it from you.
-
I really could do with someone emailing me the patch if poss, it's about 32mb so shouldn't take that long on Broadband. editted:sorted (fingers crossed!)
-
Bastards, it'd better be back up tonight, else I'll have to talk to the wife!
-
Yeah Blizzard's own peer to peer thingy. Couldn't get it to work at all. It'd start off nice and quick, then slow to a stop after a few seconds, every time. If it's not that huge a file perhaps somebody could email me the patch as an attachment?
-
Deathwing BOF. I think I only had to install a couple of patches, one of which was 1.7, but the pain was not the size per se, more that Blizzard's downloader kept crashing my system, so I had to go on one of those tedious sites where to get the DL immediately you have to pay, or else sit in a queue for half an hour. Oh well, it's well worth the aggravation, even though I've had on average 4 hours sleep for the last week and a bit!
-
Reading some WoW forums earlier, it seems like every group who has EVER completed a dungeon has had a rogue nicking all the loot, so Dan's just following his genetic predisposition! Anyway I think I need to duel TRL tonight, just to show him what's missed with my new stave!
-
Will we need to download the new patch today? If so I bet it'll be a pain in the arse again.
-
You really need to get this game Al, trust me, you'll find the time!
-
I'm really sorry about that belt TRL (what's your real name by the way?!) I'd never have picked up if I'd have realised, especially as it's nowhere near as good as the one I already I have....teach you to clear out your shite though! I think you need to be doing a bit more in the AH if you're down to 2g. I'm up to about 8.5g, despite spending about 3g on power ups the last two times I've levelled, and 7g on respeccing my skill tree. I try never to go back empty handed, as merchants will buy absolutely anything, even of its only a few coppers, it all adds up Happily assist you in the Thousand Needles tonight, if you'll do the same with me in Tarren Mill another night. That stave though is the mutt's nuts. Someone gave me this Dragonslayer buff in Orgri and combined with the stave I was taking out level 23 lions in two swipes for 150XP a go, and some nice leather to flog. When's the server down until Bicks?
-
It was funnier last week when TRL's armour seemed to consist of some reaallllly gay cycling shorts! Actually, I'm a fat, HARD bar steward. And now I've got a nice new stave (that TRL really, REALLY wanted) I can dish out even more punishment. Took out a level 29 cave yeti or something around Tarren last night.
-
Yep I think we need to set the VT guild up tonight. Someone said it was 10g between us, is that right? I need to do the Wailing Cavern tonight if anyone fancies it, as I've a half finished quest in there. Plus we still all that bloody book from Shadow Fang, although we could save that for another night if everyone's bored with it. Did a couple of q's around Tarren Mill last night, as it gave me the opportunity to stock up on leather, but it was overrun with high level Ally who kept twatting me. I was glad then when me, Bicks and Dan the Needy :winkold: took out a lone hunter in Stonetalon.
-
Nice one BOF. The good thing about having loads of VTers on WoW is that you get looked after from the off. Si and Nays did a brilliant job of showing us lot round, and helping us get decent weapons to start with. Now there's at least six of us who'll be able to show you the ropes. Just thinking what else we need now. A mage probably.
-
TRL's healing is brilliant. I love standing there bashing the bejaysus out of stuff, knowing that he's stood there making me well again. I've got healing totems now as well, after completing the excrutiatingly boring water totem quest, but it heals every group member for a minute by a certain amount, which is dead handy. I respecced in order to be able to use 2H weapons, and get the improved Ghost Wolf (most handy for beating a hasty retreat!) but lost some speed in healing as a result. Going to start putting skill points back into healing now though. Nays or Si, could you put the link for those mods back up, as I want to dowmload them but can't be bothered trawling back through this entire page to find it!
-
Id doesn't matter beyween mates like us Dan, but if you ever happen to join a random group for a dungeon, you need to know, or you'll get shouted out. Only choose "need" if it's something you really need, or can at least use. I did the WC with some blokes and mistakenly pressed need for some shit hot mail that I could see turning a nice profit in the AH, but got called all the names under the sun! In those instances you should press "greed", but as far as I can tell need takes priority over greed. It's the same with chests, instead of just opening them, most groups expect you to roll, and the highest out of a 100 gets the loot (type / roll 100). With us it doesn't matter, as we can just trade anything that anybody really needs between ourselves.
-
I reckon the four of us could crack the Cavern without a tank..... We've all got a lot better at pulling single targets now, and Dan's got to a level where he does serious damage from up close.
