God damn world is freakin huge. I fell off the side of the Teldrassil island when I was in ghost form, and after about 10 seconds of complete freefall, I couldn't get back up... like wtf mate. I had to kill myself in ghost form and it ruined some of my items. This is what I get for not paying off that jackass of a spirit healer.

Is there an auction house or something? I feel like the merchants are ripping me off proper.

edit: bloody hell, night elves can't use guns? dammit, I wanted to be a gun totting elf.

Yeah there are auction houses I think in all the big cities... I've never gone to one though, I'm not exactly sure how they work and such...

And bows are kewler than guns... :sneaky:

Canyarion 12-08-2004 03:32 AM

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
I think your NE hunter (;)) can learn to use guns, you'll just have to fiend a trainer who can teach you.

Auction houses are great. Especially 'green' items (better quality) make good money there. Like malachite, merchants pay you 30c for it, while players pay 2s. :D

Oh, save linen cloth, so you can ask a tailor to make bags for you.

And I've discoverd that my class is called MAGE, not WIZARD.

Nope, night elf hunters can't use guns period... Can't learn them or nothin'...

That's rediculous. :baby:

I like the damage my mage can do. But I've got only 250HP, so once enemies get close to me, I start to stress. :D

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
what the frick, I absolutely cannot find the damn auction house in Darnassus. They should label it on the map or something, and the bank too, that was a pain in the ass to find.

Anyone else get a glitch sometimes when they loot stuff? I was looting a dead body when my character got stuck in the loot position, and from there on could not loot anything. So I logged out and then back on, and went to pick up a pine cone, and the same bloody thing happen again. I ran around for 15 minutes trying to get out of the loot position. I called a GM who didnt reply, and then suddenly for no reason at all I went back to normal. Like wtf mate.

There are guards around big towns that you can ask... If you ask there where the bank is, they tell you, and labels it on the map...

As for the auction house, it turns out there's only 1 auction house per race... And the alliance one is in Ironforge...

And yeah that looting glitch has happened to me, but it only lasted like 10-15 seconds before it said "You cannot loot that, it would be stealing" or something and she stood back up...

Canyarion 12-10-2004 02:28 AM

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
It's due to lag. You try to loot something but you're lagging so you can't.

Auction Houses are great. :D I'm happy I play close to Ironforge.

What professions do you guys have? Me herbalism+alchemy. And the secondary skills. :)

DeathsHand 12-10-2004 04:38 AM

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
skinning/leatherworking...

I just hit level 30...

My skinning skill is like 223 or something, and my leatherworking skill is 171 or so...

And I rarely use the secondary skills... if ever... I got in the habit of giving my tailor-friend all my cloth, and I don't wanna take the time to fish, nor to find the right meat to cook with...

Oh and apparently I was wrong and Night Elves CAN learn to use guns... Unless they can for some reason learn to use guns but CAN'T equip them, however I was indeed able to at least learn the skill of using guns *nods*...

Seems like nobody is able to spell Rogue... Not to pick on you, I just think it's funny because half the time I see someone say it on WoW, they say Rouge...

And once a guy spelled it "Rogue", then corrected himself and said "*rouge".. Then some other guy said "*rogue"

I find it funny (^-^

I'm doing fishing/cooking to feed my fat ass pet. Damn tiger eats like a friggin rhinoceros.

But those are both secondary skills... you can have those along with two of the main ones...

Leatherworking, skinning, mining, blacksmithing, enchanting, alchemy, herbalism, Tailoring.......

I just noticed Reports is spelt wrong in the thread title...


Anyway, a question I need answered. I got a little icon thingy in the top right of my in game screen that says I have unread mail. Didn't even know I could receive mail... But anywho, how the frick does I check this so called unread mail? I've looked all around through the in game options and see nothing that allows me to read it.

Typically in smaller cities there's a mailbox outside the inn... While in bigger cities there are more of them scattered throughout...

One of the things you can ask a guard is where there's a mailbox, and then it marks a little flag on your map that you can follow...

The mail system is nifty, it costs 30c to send a letter, and is most useful for it's ability to send items to people... So your friends don't have to travel all the way over to where you are to receive it (although after you send a letter, it takes about an hour for it to arrive)... Or to send stuff to someone who's not currently online...

We should have a big picture posting spree. That way we can share various stories and experiences of the game through visual aid, and piss off the administrators at the same time.


But just to be sure that Neo doesn't eat my soul (and don't act like you don't), I'll go easy on the pics.

Pictures:
1) Acting like a dumbass, running around darkshore getting attacked by bears.
2) Snow beats the hell out of trees. Power to the Forge baby.
3) Dancing atop the Troll Village. That'll show them.

I like screenshots! I accidentally hit the print screen button a lot instead of F12 so I gotta filter through crap... But here are my favs that I found...






1) Me AFK
2) Just a pretty shot... Near the dam area...
3) My seat for every boat ride
4) Our groupshot near the end of the Blackfathom Deeps...

Yeah I didn't feel like making them attachments or links...

Hey that's cool. I'm on Illidan as well. Didn't even know you were on there. I just wanted a PvP and that was the one all my friends are on. I just started today, so I'm only lvl 3.

w00000t now you can make war upon eachother. :p

Stupid Blizzard Europe makes us download WoW beta again and again. They probably haven't heard of 'patch'. This will be the 3rd time I DL it. :(

My Gnome mage is lvl 18 I think. Not much progress last week.

Hey I was thinking about picking this game up. What's the monthly fee on this game? And what kind of connections are you all using to play the game? I'm stuck on 56k for right now and don't want to bother if its not going to play good.

Hey hey. The monthly fee is $15. I picked up like five two-month prepaid cards the other day because it was employee appreciation day at Gamestop (25% off instead of 15%).

As for what connection I'm using, I'm on 3Mb cable. But I don't know what's necessary. I personally wouldn't suggest even trying with dial-up, but that's just me.

On a really huge side-note [subtle]I'm getting a new graphics card!!![/subtle]

Yeah, I never would use big letters like that except for the fact that I'm incredibly pumped. I just ordered a XFX GeForce 6600 GT AGP. I would have gone ATI but they've got no med-low or med-high AGP cards. I would have had to of splurged for an x800 (ain't gonna happen). Mere words cannot convey my joy. I've been running a GeForce 4 MX 420 for a while now (which isn't even officially supported for WoW because it lacks support for pixel shaders). This should finally bring me into the world of awesome graphics with fluid frame rates. Ah, it's been so long.

Canyarion 12-23-2004 04:20 AM

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
I'm back online.

Blizzard says 56K is possible, but it won't be as smooth as with broadband.

And whoever said that a Night Elf hunter can't use guns: they can. :D

DarkMaster 12-23-2004 11:52 AM

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
Yeah, I was gun totting with my NE hunter the other day, good stuff.

Black fathom deeps is a pain in the royal ass. I died in there maybe 5 times last night, and on the 5th time my ghost wouldn't dive under water so I couldn't get into the damn place. Had to wait 20 min for a GM to respond.

Canyarion 12-23-2004 12:06 PM

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
Ah..... how do you get your ghost to dive anyway?

My mage now wields a sword. :D It looks so cool. :love:

DarkMaster 12-23-2004 08:31 PM

Re: WoW: Battle Reposts
 
The same way you get your character to dive when they're alive. Just right click down into the water.

Btw, how do you leave a guild? I don't understand why there isn't an easy option in place that allows you to leave one, I looked all over and couldn't find anything. The one I'm in is kind of a pain in the ass, and I might wanna leave it. I don't want to send out a general chat asking in case someone from the guild is in the area :sneaky: would look pretty stupid.

Now are you actually grouping with people during your gameplay experience or are you going solo?

Blackfathom deeps is an elite dungeon... Elite dungeons are basically impossible to do without a group, unless maybe you were 30 levels above the monsters in that specific dungeon...

As for leaving a guild, I'm pretty sure you just type /guildleave or /leaveguild

I forget which one...

lol, yeah as if I was doing black fathom deeps solo. We took it on with a 4 man group, 2 hunters and 2 rogues lvls25-29. It was a very unlikely success.


And...



Lets not forget this jackass. Thanks for the linen thread, I know it was at the top of my list.

So, I'm travelling along these mountains for about 90 minutes - you're supposed to take a boat but I wanted to explore the mountain ranges south of Menethil Harbor. Anyway, I come across this house in the middle of nowhere along the beach. It's called "Newman's Landing" and I haven't been able to find anybody that knows about it or any mention of it online.
