Necromagus

Man, I knew I was forgetting something. Almost at revered with them too. Oh well, guess I'll get back to it once I hit level 70 (which should be any moment now).

I've found it surprisingly lucrative to run through Stratholme solo, mostly just doing trash packs. The Runecloth and BoE blues are great money makers, I already have almost enough for cold weather flying.

Right, I strongly suggest that everyone cuts out the trolling right now. The thread starter made a simple request and posted it in the right forum. If people continue to cause problems in this topic, I'll start handing out warnings. -Necromagus, Tip.It Mod

So, I'll probably hit level 68 today. Should I just head to Northrend?

As much as it sucks that we missed the gold on the 10.000 meters, I think it's amazing what the eventual winner from South Korea pulled off. For those of you who don't know, he failed to qualify for the short track events, so changed to regular speedskating, a discipline he had never competed in before this season. He probably participated in less than half a dozen competitive events in either the 5.000 or 10.000 meters, but still managed to grab silver on the former and gold on the latter. That's an unheard of achievement.

I managed to do Ring of Blood 'properly' last night, with a group of five people at levels 64-67. The staff I got from it is pretty much perfect for a hunter (agility/stamina/attack power), and I slapped a Greater Savagery enchant on it. The staff should last me until level 70 at least.

Tonight is the men's 10.000 speedskating, which'll probably give us another gold medal. Mind-numbingly boring to watch though. I just finished watching the first Colbert Report episode of the Olympics, and he didn't mention his speedskating team at all. I'd like to think it's because we trounced them on the men's 1.500 meters :cool:. Also, I find it funny how different news outlets compile their national rankings. Pretty much every American source I've seen goes by total medal count first, then gold, then silver, then bronze, which would put the US at the top, but most European sources I've seen simply count gold first, then silver, then bronze, which would put Germany at the top (and The Netherlands in the top 10).

I had a great night tonight. I did all of Nessingwary's quests in Nagrand solo. The Tusker fight was especially epic, as my bear finally died with ~2k HP left on Tusker. I decided to take the chance and not Feign Death to reset the fight, and Concussive Shot, which I hadn't used pretty much since getting my pet, actually ended up saving my hide (I had to scramble to pull up my spellbook when I saw my pet was down to ~200 HP). On that quest I also got level 66, which was awesome since that was the level requirement on the final piece of the Felscale Armor set a guildmate had made for me (which is also where I got the nice enchantments). The gun from the Nessingwary quests and the new armor make a massive difference in my DPS. I basically went from 450 DPS at 65 with my old gun and gear to 725 DPS at 66 with the new stuff. Also, since nobody answered this... 1) The most obvious combination for a hunter is skinning/leatherworking, as it will allow you to make loads of different equipment. However, sticking with two gathering professions is fine too, as you can just buy gear with the money you make. Leather generally sells very well, even light leather, so put it all on the AH. Same for herbs. 2) Beastmastery is the talent tree you'll want for solo levelling. The tricky part is... the pet. There are three pet families: Ferocity, Cunning and Tenacity. Ferocity, which is what your raptor also is, is the class for PvE DPS. Cunning is a bit trickier, especially for first time players, but in the long run offers a lot of crowd control and other tricks. This is mainly for PvP. Tenacity is basically the tank class of pets, mainly gorillas, boars and bears. I strongly suggest getting one of these for solo levelling, as they'll basically act as your personal tank. I suggest getting a boar or a bear. Some important talents: - Endurance Training: This will increase the max HP of both yourself and your pet. - Thick Hide: This will increase the armor of your pet, and the armor bonus you get from equipment - Improved Mend Pet: Reduces the mana cost of your Mend Pet spell, and gives a 25/50% chance to remove an effect every time it ticks. This will become incredibly useful later on. - Spirit Bond: Allows both you and your pet to regenerate health faster, decreasing your downtime. - Bestial Wrath: This increases your pet's damage for 10 seconds. It's also a prerequisite for... - The Beast Within: While your pet is under the influence of Bestial Wrath, you'll cause 10% extra damage and all spells cost 20% less mana. The build I use, and this is strictly for solo levelling, but probably not optimal for DPS in dungeons: Endurance Training (5/5), Focused Fire (2/2), Thick Hide (3/3), Aspect Mastery (1/1), Unleashed Fury (5/5), Improved Mend Pet (2/2), Improved Mend Pet (2/2), Ferocity (5/5), Spirit Bond (2/2), Intimidation (1/1), Bestial Discipline (2/2), Frenzy (5/5), Animal Handler (2/2), Bestial Wrath (1/1), Serpent's Swiftness (5/5), Longevity (3/3), The Beast Within (1/1), Kindred Spirits (5/5), Beast Mastery (1/1). 3) In the Interface menu, simply go to the ActionBars section (in the menu of the left on the window when you click the Interface button) and tick off the extra bars that you want to use.

I decided to work on my leatherworking a bit, and I ended up getting from 280 to 320 tonight. I'll be wearing the Felscale armour set soon, all patched up with Knothide Armor Kits. I'll be heading into Northrend soon, just long enough to pick up grand master skinning.

I'm really looking forward to this game. I do have faith in it, as it seems to be a proper RPG rather than a tactical game or a third person action game. One thing that struck me about the trailer is how well-lit New Vegas is. They obviously have some sort of functional power plant. I don't think we've seen a city with this much electricity before, except maybe Vault City. The NCR NPC in the trailer is also surprisingly militaristic looking. My guess for the plot would be some sort of (armed) conflict between the NCR and New Vegas, with NCR trying to annex the city and New Vegas resisting.

Right, I'm getting ready to hit Outland with my main, a BM hunter: http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=The+Sha%27tar&cn=Ragnus&gn=Stonefoot+Clan I'm currently working on Argent Dawn rep, and already have the sigils for these pants (just need 4.5k more rep), and I need to do a trip to Dire Maul to pick up this trinket. Are there any essential pieces of gear I should pick up before I head through the portal at 58, or is it good enough?

I'm thinking of rolling a healer, either a druid or a shaman, any tips?

Yeah, I'm basically using the task list to guide me through the game. I got a golden bead from an invasion, and I'm hanging on to it for one of those tasks.

I'm not quite there yet, but I have a piece of occupied flatland literally right next to my city.

I have two captured legends. Whenever I try to do anything with them (one of them has enough XP to level up), I get the "Legend not found" error. Also, how do I upgrade them from prisoners?

Right, this spam chain ends right now before I start handing out official warnings. -Necromagus, Tip.It Mod.

I write them occasionally, when the mood strikes me. They're listed as historical on the TImes index page.

Welcome to the forums. As others have pointed out, we have a sticky for introductions. -Necromagus, Tip.It Mod.

I'm surprised with all the negativity towards RP servers. I have a level 22 Blood Elf rogue that I've been playing on for over two months, most of the time just involved in ongoing RP stories. I've only recently gone past level 20, mostly thanks to a helpful guildmate running me through Deadmines often enough to get the full Defias set (for RP purposes). You running around on an RP server ruining other players' experience would be the same as me signing up for a PvP server and just running around the battleground naked. The server has been designed for a certain type of play, and if you don't like RP you just shouldn't roll a character on those servers.

Right, I'm locking this. Way too much animal penis for my liking. -Necromagus, Tip.It Mod.

So does anyone here play on RP servers at all?

I just noticed a paragraph was missing from my article, it's been added now.

All right, while I understand that this is a sensitive subject, I strongly advise you not to turn this into a "who was bullied more" pissing contest. Just stick with the topic at hand. -Necromagus, Tip.It Mod.
