im basically getting the idea that if you want a more relaxed style of gameplay and dont mind more idiots go with WOW

I tried eq2 and i tried to like it.. i didnt like it at all.. the game tried to be ffxi/daoc/wow/eq all in one..all i did in that game was lag and i have a good pc.


WoW is fun.. I love questing, I also enjoy going into contested areas and having to be aware of my surroundings because someone might come pk me or i can go pk them.

only thing i hate in the game is other druids who dont know what thier heal spells are or dumb night elf rogues who think i cant see them sneaking behind me =P

Have to agree with the Vila.

only thing i hate in the game is <snip> dumb night elf rogues who think i cant see them sneaking behind me =P"


I like that, Its pretty fun to emote to them while they sneak up behind you. Laughing

If druid travel mode had prowl all would be right with my world.

*grin* Had my 1st 2 PKs last night. I feel bad though, well sorta, okay not really.

I decided to take a little romp through the barrens just to see what was there and see what the locals were up too. I'm not on a PVP server but it was still a hell of a lotta fun. I scared the living shit outta this one little orc hunter who was busy fighting so I walked up behind him and waited for him to finish then just waved. He turned around and it took about a second to register what the hell I am appparently because he suddenly took about 2 steps back and then ran like hell. I was rollin.

Before that though I found some Tauren place and decided to play with a guard. Well I felt bad cause it was like killin Frehya, but ah well. The bovine attacked me first. Then during the 2nd one this 19 troll rogue comes up to me and jumps into it. I'm rather amused, turn knock him down to 20% in 1 hit, kill him in the 2nd. All this happens as I watch the advancing raid of about 30 Alliance folks running up behind him. I was rollin cause it was just this wave of folks running up the hill behind him to try and get him first. Well, 2nd guard dies and I go off on my own again.

Come across a bull hunter a bit later on and watch him beat the p**s outta some mob. I wave, bow, the usual tryin to be friendly and jog off on my merry way and the poor b*****d as I'm running away decides to attack me. Yet again, I feel bad, but the SOB tried to knife me in the back, so I 2 shot him too.

Granted now, there isn't a shred of bragging rights in any of these, I basically butchered 2 newbies (I'm 37) who attacked me first, but it was honestly pretty damn funny to watch all their reactions. Just wish that troll coulda seen the wave of comin up behind him and I'd have taken a picture of it. It was priceless.

I couldnt imagine playing on a Carebear server, you just dont get the same horde vs alliance effect. You should see the Battles we have outside Tauren Mill when 20 alliance decide to attack =p. And I love how like no one is aware of the Hunter's ability to feign death, its saved me like 2035260236707 times.

if FD works for you in PvP, you are fighting complete retards, but more power to you! I tend to hide in bushes with a frost trap beneath me then I lure them into it with my pet and proceed to shoot down the living shit out of them. 700+ dmg crits are hot in PvP, especially when you have a distance advantage. <3 aimed shot + concussive shot. Rezzing in bushes has saved me in PvP more times than I can count.

I was in Ratchet last night, and within 20 seconds of getting off the boat I had some troll /duel me. He was 23 and I was 26. So I beat him and then I had like 3 more horde guys duel me. The last one was a PVP flagged hunter, and somehow at the end of the fight she died and I got flagged PVP and jumped by 6 or 7 horde. Then they corpse camped me and when I tried to run I got killed by some ogre npc and lost durability. =( . Anybody know how that works, or if it's a bug? That's not the first time I got PVP flagged in a duel or killed someone.
