I just hit level 36.

Looking at ten days to level 40 and the Mount.

Look for a group for Shadowfang Keep Risso. If Si is happy to help you out (and he needs the money, so he will be. I need the XP, so its no good to me) you shouldnt struggle to get two or three more players in at the mid 20's level. You might need some artillery. Say a mage, warlock or hunter to shoot from distance. And take TRL in. A priest is your best friend in an instance.

(from allakhazams WoWreader. needs an allakhazam login to make one. Anyone can read it.)

Some Rio type statue i just noticed in Booty Bay...

And this is what it looks like from the front.

Booty Bay.

Thunder Bluff from the air. Pretty.

And those new robes i was trying to get Si. Excellent

Its always wierd seeing things you did from a totally different angle!

Wow!

Not good.

The server is too old now. You might as well join an existing guild with members of your level.

Guilds arent that important until you reach the high levels (45+ probably) and start doing Instance runs on a regular basis. As you have got a regular game with Risso, and as you are a Priest you should never have trouble finding a group (try to find a Warrior of your level) so making a VT guild would just be hassle.

You couldnt get through with a level 40 on side??

edit:

Oh, and have a look at this:

http://www.goblinworkshop.com

Very handy for maps and stuff, so you dont have to spend forver looking for people and places.

Now you are used to the game, id get some AddOns.

http://www.curse-gaming.com/mod.php

The Titan Bar is fantastic. You download the file, extract it, and put the folder called Titan in C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns or whatever your filepath might be.

For Si, id reccomend Combat Sentry Gizmo too. Its PvP tastic!

Oh, and a list of all the Emotes.

There are hundreds of the things.

What is house of cass??

www.houseofcuss.com

Its just a forum that i have used for a couple of years now. Its about games and music and swearing. Only about 10 regular posters. Its great.

Anyway. Screenshot time:

Myself and Si storming a fortress.Both inside the keep, and out in the courtyard. We are kicking arse here. Its a contested area (as is most of the game for us now) so we have to watch out for those smelly Alliance types. (Alliance are other human players who are on the other team. They actually outnumber us, but they seem to have a much higher percentage of dickheads and annoying kids playing on their side)

And lo there were two of them outside the gates of the fort. There were four of us, but two (rogues) can turn invisible, so the Alliance can only see myself and Si. Im on top of the hill to draw fire, and one of them takes the bait, and starts firing shots at me. For the geeky ones amongst us, there is a priest, who is a healer and a mage who is an out and out damage dealer on their side. We have myslef, warlock, who is there to manipulate other peoples behaviour, Si, a warrior, who is there to get stuck in as an out and out brawler, who can give and recive an alarming amout of damage out. There to keep fights going on longer than the other side want them to, and we have two rogues who are damage dealers. Here ive cast a spell on myself so i have an extra life, i have cast spells on the Mage and the Priest from the alliance which slows down the speed in which they can cast their spells considerably. Their mage has shot me with something powerful.

Some 10 seconds later, and the mage has realised that he is about to die at Si's hands, and has cast a spell on him (and the other Rogue, Electro) so that they cant move. The mage has then proceeded to scarper. We did notice that he had ran off, but more of that later..

The priest on the other hand is pretty much ****. She cant cast very quickly because of what i have done to her, and she is taking a poinding off of the rouge behind her (fnar!) and from the demon, who follows me around, infront of her. Im also shooting. Im sure that the shot in the picture is what killed the Priest.

The one that tried to run away didnt get very far...

And a few minutes later, the Priest came back. I might be wrong here, (and im sure Si will correct me) but i think i killed her on my own here. We were all on top of this tower, and Si and Sie (confusing eh?) went down to the bottom to give her the fear. They appear to have got tied up fighting some more of the computer controlled monsters that we were attacking in the first set of shots, while the priest was distracted by looking at them, and quite rightly, scared that she was going to get another kicking.

I remained on top of the tower, and just put that anti cast spell on her, then shot the shit out of her. Im certain she didnt see what killed her. She was trying to figure out where i was, but couldnt see me at all. Sniper!

How do you get all of your spells on the screen like that?

ESC > Interface Options > Add more bars. And you can turn the swear filter off too.

Oh, and dont lose first aid. Especially Bicks who has no healing spells. First Aid will help you out no end at higher levels. Have a quick look Here and have a read of the stuff that people are talking about Here

And you know when you get something horribly wrong?

Check this:

I was looking around an area called Desolace. Its rough as **** there. All dead trees, and scorched earth, but at the very edge i found this. Its well out of the way, and doesnt look at all like the rest of the area. I thought it would be a nice area for grinding in, so i took a snap for other peoples reference...

I took out one of the man/fish monsters (no, it wasnt Fulchester United goalkeeper) and while i was feeling rather pleased with myself, an almighty blow hit me for about a quarter of my entire health, in shock, i turned around expecting to find alliance there or something, and this bastard was on top of me!

Yep. Despite a somewhat random resizing of the picture by Imageshack, that is indeed the not so jolly green giant. **** just sprung from nowhere. Took me out in three hits!

And as i was somewhat shocked, i didnt really get a good shot of him. But he actually filled my entire screen!

(and you are going to have to wait for Imageshack to start working again before i put the pictures on here....)

What do you open those targa files aka screen shots with??

Ive got photoshop 8 installed on my PC, so that does it. Id be guessing, but any Adobe program might do the same?

Alternatively, you could just [windows key] & [D] out of the game after grabbing a shot, open MS paint, [ctrl]&[v] to paste the image in there, and save it as a .jpg before returning to the game.

Its not even 1 pint a week at Warwickshire prices Juju!

Check out Ragefire Chasm in Orgrimmar.

Its the first dungeon on the game. And you are about the right level to go in there now.

Id take a group of five people in though.

Did he ever actually wear it?

And the password is the name of the finest centre half who ever wore the Claret and Blue.

I set up a Villa Talk channel for chat.

Type: /join VT to join it. Then /5 to put a message in.

Means we dont have to be grouped to speak on the game.

Ooh Rev, that screenshot just scared me off. Looks far too complicated

What kinda processor do you have to have to run it properly ?

Its not. The game starts off with about three buttons to press, and grows from there as you get more ecxperienced, and more comfortable about what you are doing. The learning curve, interface wise, is beautifully balanced.

Also bear in mind, that im playing as a Warlock, the most complicated class to play through the game as.

I like this picture. This was a sweet, sweet moment in the game for me.

Oh how myslef and Si laughed at this one...

(and the specs are listed on page 2 of this very thread)

And Bicks has just joined.

Tauren Hunter.

theres trouble brewin...

You will love it Juju.

And its not really the exclusive propery of D&D fans.

Sure, there are Orcs in it, but they are breakdancing Orcs who can buy guns and then shoot squirrels with the guns.

Tauren. Gun. Dead Ostrich.

Ait im in! Im an undead priest In deathknell or something.

Character name Trl. Currently level 5 moving onto 6 hehe... ive tried messaging you but maybe im doing it wrong.

You're on the wrong server. Start again and come onto Deathwing, and look for any of us lot. You'll soon be back up to speed, as we can give you weapons and cash, and help you with quests so you level faster.

Deathknell is a town within the game Risso. Where the undead spawn. In Tristfall Glades, near Brill and The Undercity.

This is why all those low level quests you are hammering through at the moment are quests that myself and Si havent done. We did all of our early work in and around Deathknell.

Guess this proves just how massive the game is!

Bicks, the Manual thing, it wil confuse the **** out of you.

Skim it to find out what the buttons do, then hide it. Dont look at it again until you are level 10.

Then just keep it by your PC as and when.

Best way to play the game. And if you arent sure on something, just ask someone. Im sure myself and Si know plenty of tricks by now too.

Horde characters:

Undead: myself and Si. I just wanted to be a zombie. And evil. And the undead are clearly both.

Orcs: Dan and Risso. Have the best dance on the game.

and the other two that no one has been.

Trolls: All speak with strong Jamacan accents. Stay away from de Voodoo!

Tauren: Are about twice as big as everything else. And they are basically giant cows. With fleas. They are impossibly cool, and i wish i had have picked now.

Anyway. Human or Death?? Whats the coolest thing to be? My mate told me not to go warlock at the start, as its supposed to be very tricky for a newbie :oops:

True. I picked a Warlock as my first character, and they are without a doubt the hardest (read "most involving") class to play as on the whole game, and it will take until about level 30, some 200 hours of play, before they really start to shine. Dont let that put you off if you want to be a Lock though, but if you are going to be questing with Dan and Risso a lot, perhaps a healer (priest) or a tank (warrior) will suit the group a lot more.

Try a few characters, see which one you enjoy the most.
