The World of Warcraft thread

[Cake9000]

Enough of the GW2 vs. WoW, or me just asking who plays WoW. I now know some of you play it, so I thought I'd make a thread to discuss the game.

What to discuss? Anything WoW related. Raids, BGs, or anything else.

Here's my WoW characters(Truly know idea why I put this here.);
My Horde:
Name: Risingstorm
Class/Level: 85 Paladin(Protection)
Race: Blood Elf
Server: Hydraxis

My Alliance:
Name: Ràs
Class/Level : 68 Mage(Frost)
Race: Human
Server: Kel'Thuzad

 

[Jonsoon]

Name: Nadîr
Class: 85 Destro Lock
Race: Gnome
Server: Tichondirus

Class: 47 Resto Shaman
Race: Goblin

[leftovers5]

I quit after I finished all of the 85 content in the beginning of Cata, WoW wasn't really doing it for me. I started late BC, so I probably burned out. Used to play on the Whisperwind server with some friends! My greatest feat was probably getting the violet proto-drake as soon as all the first year of events finished.

Ex-main
Name: Frostoros
Class: 85 Unholy (PvP)/Unholy (PvE) DK
Race: Tauren
Server: Whisperwind

Ex-main alt
Name: Mythoros
Class: 85 Subtlety/Assassination Rogue (PvE)
Race: Blood Elf
Server: Whisperwind

I also had a level 60 something troll hunter, 30 something undead warlock, 50 something undead shadow priest, 20 night elf druid, a 40 something goblin shaman, and a 40 something blood elf paladin. I used to play a lot, but I think all of my characters are long gone from the armory.

 

[Angyles]

I only really have toons on Horde side.


Name: Cynnau
Class/Level: 85 Resto Shaman
Race: Goblin for now
Server: Blackhand


I have a few other 85s, like a druid and a lock but they are only farming toons.

  • Warchief Garrosh, obsessed with assuring the Horde’s supremacy over Kalimdor, launches an all-out attack against Jaina's island home of Theramore. Though valiant Alliance defenders rush to repel the sudden onslaught, they’ll soon find themselves unprepared for the terrible scope of Garrosh's true plans…
  • This Scenario will become available in the weeks leading up to the launch of Mists of Pandaria on September 25.

EDIT 2 - Realms are up!

 

[Angyles]

Servers are up now, at least mine is. Just logged in via phone to check auctions. According to Krypto, you can already get the MoP mount if you have the digital version, and the worst part...my Elvui is broken. I have to update it. *Sigh* there goes a few hours of time!

 

[Rumblestikk]

Yeah my nUI is broken as well. hahah

 

[Angyles]

So got Elvui updated, fortunately my ui was fine, I did not have to redo it....but my Vuhdo is missing! Come back!

Also I cannot find my totem bar rofl

 

[Rumblestikk]

Recount is messing up. Upon entering combat you will continue to loose FPS till your client crashes.

Solution - Use Skada.
