Druids were OP pre wrath. now a LOL in arena

If paladins are OP I might start playing again.

Play on Alleria

like everyone else...everytime i run into one of those strutting BEs they're a paladin and i haven't met a single pally yet who didn't ninja or wasn't an ego maniac or a control freak...honestly i think all that powers gone to there heads, just puttin that out there...

Death Knights are worse.
"Mind if I need?"
"Dude... that plate piece has int on it..."

You've just met one lol.

Incase you didn't get that it's me ._.

Druids are pretty overpowered.
Resto is still really strong, Balance has insane burst as well as the treeants that hit for 500 easy.

But it's feral that's the most crazy. Ferocious bites can crit for well over 10k. In bear they can still pump out 3k mangle crits and they got a sort of charge for catform. Also in catform you have like +15% speed or something.
All in all they're really hard to kite, which used to always be the case, but they never did such insane damage.
I don't really know how you can think of a druid as "LOL" in arena nowadays.

I find it really hard to believe that you kill paladins "easy" Wong.
Warlock's a gimped class atm and demonic circle doesn't even work while stunned, the paladin will have you dead before his bubble is over.
And even after that retpala's have insane healing, Paladins have no anticlass atm.

But anyways, you don't have to take my word for it. The statistics show it anyways.
http://www.arenajunkies.com/rankings/2v2/

Only classes represented there are pala, dk, mage, rogue, hunter and druid. With Pala/DK represented best.
It used to be a long brown line of Druids and they were seriously overpowered, now it's paladins and dks and they are also seriously overpowered.

20%, 40% in Travel Form, 50% in aquatic form while in water.

well keep in mind im twinking at 39, but most imba classes when i first started playing (way before wotlk) where imba in early levels like locks and rogues. atm druids and pallys im taking down without a problem

I only ever needed once and that was in Underbog for a awesome leg peice. Another DK in the group was needing on everything, even a freaking staff!

Is it that bad? I never had any problems with ninjas so far, even DKs.

I have only lost rolls to undeserving players.
Today i did heroic Gundrak and this feral druid outrolled me on the legs, which are quite good. (Got a lot of hit and fair bit of AP and agility)
That's part of the game, but it's extra painful when he was just slacking the entire instance doing 800 dps.
That's less than people in Karazhan did. (Actually I don't know a thing about Karazhan, but I wouldn't be surprised if 800 dps was Karazhan dps)

I picked up a little pve, and although it's fun from time to time it's far more time consuming than pvp.
In pvp you get your gear and your enchants and you're done. No 4 hour raids, no LF tanks and healers, no flasking and all that shit.
Also no farming to pay for repairs and the flasks and potions and whatnot.

Men men, can't believe I played ro all these years when I could ofp layed WoW >.>

Lvl 50 now, in like .. 5 days and loving it stilllll. Feral druid ftw ;o

Anyways, I always lived on the pre-conception that wow had kiddy graphics .. shit at that and that 9 in 10 games outclassed it .. gfx style that is. But fuck me with a wooden rake, WoW is amazing.



I know there's better at the higher end parts of the map .. but for me .. nicest I seen so far. Also, the details in WoW are amazing ... birds chirping in the morning ( When it's actual morning ), fireworks on new years, npc's killing mobs that stray onto their routes, the little mini games, becoming drunk and 3948503457039475 other things. I's just Farking amazing. + people on wow are quite friendly. Went o na few Zul'Farrak runs being the tank .. alltho with a shity geared group no1 can really do their job ;p but fuck me .. was amazing.

And I've not even seen WotLK content yet .. just starting to get into the BC bit, also not done any bg's or so as I really wanna just quest till 80 then have fune.

Fack, brilliant gameeeeee.

You obviously leveled before the wave of DKheads came. =P


I didn't roll on stuff like that; I was looking for the high stam +def gear. =[(Frost tank kgo)

woutR, 800 was around average Kara, ya.

Crumpets, yay, someone who finally sees what people mean about the style and flow of graphics who bashed it once upon a time.

Im glad you think like that. People always dismiss WoW as having shitty childish graphics, but i actually think the graphics are amazing for a the style of game it is and for a game that was released in 2004.

By the way, i know you're from England so im assuming you're on EU realms. Which are you on?

I have to say that Wow doesn't have very comparable graphics.
The whole style of WoW is different, it has style all its own. So I don't think you can accuratly compare it to other games.

I didnt mean it like that, i meant that WoW's graphics fit in very well with the fantasy genre. You dont want a fantasy game to have real world graphics, because that wouldnt match with the genre of the game.

Either way, i think WoW has great graphics.

I know, I was just voicing my opinion .

Shadowsong ;o Nice normal server nothing special.

How to twink? I just tried Warsong Gulch and it's ridiculous. Everyone lvl 39 and does 1/4th my hp in one shot, people chaining stuns somehow. All gayness.

well a start is know how to play against other classes, rogues for examples use aoe effects to show them (they effct them when in stealth) then keep your distance and stop them going stealth such as fear, any mag class will find it hard to use their attacks if you run in circles attacking them that way as they need you to be infront to attack ( also stay close), druids keep them in their form and use damage over time effects and so on but thats either how to stop me or how i play as a lock

if your belf silence is always a good quick one to use aswell xD

Come to Ravenholdt.

ret is OP atm, pve and pvp wise. although next patch, if you're bubbled you do 50% less dmg, instead of that lowered attack speed.
I think there's a couple more nerfs, but i'm not too sure.
ugh, double ret teams in 2s destroyed me and my priest.

I quit my mage.

Couldn't get myself to start gearing up for pve / pvp, lost interest in the class.

SO instead I leveled my warrior to 80 aswell, and I started tanking heroics with him today Having more fun in WoW than I ever had in the past months.

Looking good there, Wu. By the way, I just wanted to point out if you are having problems with gold seller flooding up your chat, you should get SpamMeNot(available on Curse). It filters them efficiently, and even report them if they reach a certain level of "spam rate".

I felt like that on my hunter. =[
So now I'm seriously working on my death knight, to tank, which is hella fun.

Don't twink
People say they twink to play twink vs twink, then just go to level 80 and "twink" there.
Twinks are just there to be overpowered. I like overpowered but I am not going to spend hours and hundreds of gold on a low level character to own people who are severely undergeared compared to mine.

But each to his own. I really dislike twinking, others only play to twink.
It's a bit gay it removes the fun for some people who are just levelling and wanna do a BG.

I have 2 twink rogues!!

I find level 19 PVP to be alot more fun than at level 80 anyway. I find it more fast paced and the simplicity of only having a few skills at your disposal makes it more like an action game. I do have to say though, its actually boring fighting non twinks, i like it when we get put against a pre-made.

They should add a seperate level 10-19 bracket (and 20-29, 30-39 etc) for twinks. Sort of like heroic mode for battlegrounds, that would be fun. And it would let non twinks enjoy battlegrounds a bit more i guess.

im pretty sure that the twink players would opt to still play in non-twink battle grounds as there whole reason for twinking is to farm honor, they're clearly not looking for a challenge, if they were they wouldn't have twinked...

Got my mining to 350 in a day =/ hope its worth it
Ohhh and my first peice of T7 gear(gloves)!!!(posting screenshot once at home,or check armory) also a few Heroics left before rED dRake.Gotta love being 80 xD
