These memes need to stop. I just got my ally to level 45 and I got ganked maybe once or twice, skipping STV.
My horde is level 33 and gets ganked consistently or killed by groups of ally daily
>>125883462
dont play during chinese hours then
>>125883462
Searing Gorge and Un'Goro have been pretty bad
STV is awful...
>>125883462
What does Chinese hours have to do with this? I play at the same time periods on both chars
>>125883576
ALL HOURS ARE CHINA HOURS
>>125884372
nah
they end around 22:00 paris central
Thinking of rolling horde are shamans any good?
Does race matter much?
How do they compare to other classes at healing, dps, tanking?
Any bugs or issues with the class?

what can I run @ 57? And should I just grind to 60? Feels like there isn't shit for quests anymore.
>>125888843
ELP/WPL/silithus, you should be fine quest-wise for 55-60 with a minimun of grinding
WHY ARE THERE NO GROUPS FOR SFK AND BFD
NOT A SINGLE ONE ANYWHERE EVER
>>125889284
>tfw wrapped up WPL and most of EPL
It's a sad day. Thx for the reply though. Hopefully I can get all the BRD quests done and that will be a good chunk.

Why are BOE taking tanks always shitters?
They always fuck up, drop group, then blame others for their mistakes.
>>125889765
Sadly :(
Why is Stormwind so much nicer looking than any Horde city? So is Ironforge. And it seems like there's more people there too.
What is the horde/alliance split on this server? I always get ganked as horde in any 20-30 zone by entire parties and there's literally no one ever coming to help, is this because everyone's on alliance or some other reason?
>>125890549
>And it seems like there's more people there too.
>>125890549
Ally re just shitter's who consistently gank when in numbers or higher levels.
And the ratio is like 51 horde 49 ally or something
>Want to play a mighty orc warrior
>Know I will be walking everywhere because i'm so poor

>>125890549
Alliance has actual cities. That's why it's much nicer unless you are one of those people that force them self to admire amazing african "architecture", aka plastering shit onto stick walls.
As for the split, lately there is a just a bit more alliance in general, but on level 60 there are more horde players.
For world PvP you will ALWAYS see situation where many attack the few, on each fraction.
That being said, with the latest influx of chinks who favour alliance, the chance of meeting a group of enemies are higher on horde side, but that drops off soon after entering contested zones since a lot of chinks just goes to grind places [earth elementals in Badlands, Murlocks in DWM and so forth]
>>125888843
>>125889765
>>125890325
I just hit 60 and haven't even touched EPL quests yet. Feels like you've missed some somewhere

is it true that druids are shit at everything in vanilla
I started in BC and mained a druid but apparently that expansion turned us into gods
>>125894953
>tfw 8 days, 6 hours played and only 57.5
>>125895315
no matter how shit a class may be, every class is needed in raids.
>>125895315
yes, in vanilla druids are good at nothing. Even the most mediocre of healers. Sorry bro.
>>125895287
Or I can just go on a 2x server.
>>125895572
Enjoy your poor singleplayer MMO experience.
>>125895315
Actually if you have the gear and your group knows how to focus fire then you can tank dungeons.
But you will be a healer and only a healer in raids.
The good news is if you roll a druid it's pretty much a guaranteed raid spot.
>>125894968
Tirion quest works, try abandoning it then getting the disguise again
>>125895863
On servers with several thousand players?
Uh ok
>>125895572
why would you ruin a game for yourself like that?
>>125895315
Dont listen to the shitters, the Druid is a capable and viable class. Sadly, you will probably have a hard time finding a spot in raids though due to people still having the mindset that vanilla raids are hard and that no one knows how to do anything. Bear druids have amazing threat generation, cat druids have decent DPS and bring crit buffs to melee parties, balance druids are generally desired for top tier raiding for moonkin aura, and will probably be even moreso with AQ coming up with the spellpower creep, and resto druids are always in demand.
Are the pvp and pve realms both viable?
>>125897171
what do you mean by viable?
>>125893464
>That being said, with the latest influx of chinks who favour alliance

Welcome to my kill on sight list.
>>125901124
>SFK
m8 people are talking about higher level - endgame raids
being able to summon is useful as fuck
>>125901124
I only partied with one warlock in a dungeon
They not only needed and won spirit pants against our healer, but they also did LESS damage than said healer. Also rarely soulstoned him and never handed out healthstones.
>>125901124
who screens people for sfk? wait, did they really do that for decurse? for sfk? amazing. soon lowbies will be gathering up for ony buff before running instances.
>>125902121
I just want to do level appropriate dungeons ffs. :(
>>125902224
>tfw I always make sure the healer is soulstoned before a boss fight
>tfw not a single person ever used a healthstone I gave them EVER
>tfw my DPS is still shit
Just want to die already honestly.
>>125902224
>expecting us to hand out healthstones for free
i usually charge 50 silver per, ppl seem okay with that price
why dont people macro healthstones into their defensives
or just make a fucking bind for them this is vanilla after all fuck
>>125902482
low level warlock dps is abysmal. casters in general, but warlock the most. no spell power, mobs die before dots can do their full damage, and shadow bolt really just isn't great for a while. also don't hand out healthstones to anyone but maybe warrior tanks.
>>125902482
I how you feel m8 but you have to understand that you only need to do the dungeons up to 60 once or twice, at 60 you will grind dungeons many times to get dank loot.
>>125902482
Just dont be a shitter like the lock I mentioned and youll be fine. Groups also appreciate it if you get to the dungeon early to summon the lazy ones.
>>125903235
>understand that you only need to do the dungeons up to 60 once or twice
But this is exactly what I want to do. It's not like I want to repeat them 50 times like an endgame raid.
I thought this would have 20 groups for everything at all times, since apparently the server population is so massive compared to the official servers, looks like I expected too much. Oh well.
>>125902676
Vanilla's macro system is more complicated and properly working scripts are difficult to find for some classes. You can download SuperMacro to help out this issue, but ive heard that it can conflict with some UI addons.
>>125903627
you can use lazyscript to literally 1 button your entire class
>>125903627
After a lot of searching, I can tell you that SuperMacro 3.14a works fine with Discord Action Bars 3.16, except you don't get macro tooltips.

>>125907929
why would anyone switch to corecraft at this point?
people already have a main on nostalrius
>>125908661
I can't decide if I want to main my warrior or my mage, both are level 20 and both are pretty fun, but both get super shitty later in vanilla
Anyone have a good pre-raid/raid guild on Ally side?
I can't stand to be in Damage Control anymore. Literally nobody ever talks or plays together. I don't know why this shit even exist.
>>125908954
Warriors get better around level 30, especially when you get whirlwind axe.
As a druid is there any point in training fishing/cooking/first-aid?
>>125910489
>fishing/cooking
yes, nightfin soup is gr8 m8
>>125910489
I got 300 cooking and fishing on my druid
Nightfin soup is amazing, huge mp5 and nightfins are fairly quick to fish. Grilled squid gives 10 agi I think it is, only problem is that fishing up the squids takes ages since the droprate is very very low.
>>125909287
Plenty around but many don't have the freedom of DC. Most guilds are either filled with edgelord redditors or on the reverse spectrum of pandering to normies.
Pick your poison and good luck.

Rogues are literally the niggers of WoW. Who the fuck plays a rogue in 2015 besides an autist? Every single time I see a rogue they're either begging for heals because they got themselves in deep shit and are about to die and don't know how to efficiently save and use their cooldowns, or theyre begging for free food. Fuck you rogues, seriously.

It's just the karmic cycle of suffering right? To live is to suffer.

you gotta hurry up with leveling and gearing if you want to be relevant at AQ40 release. it's doable if you only play one character but like i said i'm already in a raiding guild and stuff.
if you don't care about doing AQ40 on day 1, there's no problem at all.

>>125936670
Warriors are pretty bad 1v1 even with great gear. You only become a powerhouse with a pocket healer so make nice with a paladin or druid or something.
>>125936670
You didn't get seduced too? Wow. You must have been up a nubsy pubsy.
>>125895336
im just trudging along at 7 days 6 hours levelling as a holy priest. half way to 56
>>125937248
prob sub 30 where you can just chain fear warriors. good times.
So I am terminally disappointed with retail WoW. Legion was the last chance I was giving the game but it is really turning out quite disappointing. The same shitty design is encompassing it in a raid or die atmosphere, and the only enjoyable form of raiding being Mythic. It require far too much time on a fixed schedule.
The classes themselves are being casualized even further and their toolkits are pathetic, now only sporting 15-20 abilities.
Anyone else share the same feelings? What do you think? I haven't played on private servers for a long time, so I'm not sure what to do now.
>>125937365
I have felt the same way for awhile
I assume you want to check out private servers, Nost is probably one of the best options for vanilla.
>>125937360
Yeah, I was. I thought about shield bash later but there's no guarantee it's the first spell they cast and I'd have to chain it constantly.

>>125939534
in longer fights horde is better, in quick fights alliance have a small advantage.
Just a reminder that /vg/ guilds will never raid.

but paladins suck. i'd rather have a shaman in my raid than a paladin.

>30% less raidwide threat
>small
Guys, I want to level up and be 60 and be able to feel the accomplishment of reaching it.
But... it's so fucking boring. I know these lands, I know these stories. I know this world. There is nothing propelling me forward anymore.
>>125939804
Are there pre-reqs?
>>125939534
Alliance have a big advantage but it honestly doesn't matter much
>>125940086
not sure im following a guide and its just like go here pick up the quest. but they are not available. unless the quests were actually added later in vanilla or something?
>>125939846
>>125939959
looks like I was wrong. this bait is turning out a lot like the tps bait.
>>125939970
windfury generates more threat aswell you know?
either way, dreamstate had server first nef, and they're gonna get server first cthun and KT aswell. just watch.
>>125940232
okay so you're done? then shut up.
beta uprising when?
>>125940241
nope wiped on nef which is the only reason dreamstate won, which shouldn't of even happened because paladin class call is much easier than shaman class call
>>125940785
so basically nope sucks?
>>125940919
yeah pretty much in the case of that bwl run.
>>125941234
thank you for being submissive.

It was RNG, Nef for the first week or two would despawn, that is what happened with NOPE so they fall behind and lost to Dreamstate
>>125941387
>just unlucky bro
>>125941507
It's literally what happened, Moo was streaming it
Emphasis and Exile also had Nef despawn, Entitled as well

In retail Vanilla you could.
IIRC, noggenfogger/deviate with feral druid forms were disabled due to a certain fatherless offender who's been banned, but I could just be hearing bitter lies.
