** Official WoW Catalysm Alpha/Beta Thread **

The quests are the same from 60-80 but there are new ones from 1-60 and 80-85.

It was never really the same quests over and over again though, there are thousands of them, they can't all be hugely different.

My mistake,i didn't put it right.I meant that you always needed to go to the same regions,after your startersarea.And to be honest,i restarted Wow 3 times in the meantime,and i still remembered most of the quests...
 
Well they've mixed the regions up a bit and all the old quests are gone.

I think I knew every quest in the game (both factions) from 1-80 before this patch, you dont tend to forget them easily :p
 
Hopefully it will take weeks to kill a single boss, especially on heroic.

Just like in the level 60 days, none of this easy nonsense we have at the moment.

Highly doubt it though (it doesn't). :(

Most raid bosses didn;t take weeks to kill for most guilds, only those that required ridiculous amounts of farming or gearing to meet the requirements for you to be able to progress.
And the length of time for kills was more due to the massive amounts of trash in most raids coupled with difficulty of organising raids and the laughable class balance.

I know that, I'm just not a big fan of the current system. It used to be better when for example tanks needed resistance gear and so on. I'm afraid that has all gone now :(

I'm not a fan of how it is at the moment either, but for me neither vanilla or tbc raid models were great either.

The cataclysm system seems to be the way to go, but having ridiculous requirements for one to raid and progress within content is never a good idea.

i would prefer the ulduar style of hard-mode initiation to remain, however that seems to be long gone.

will raiding be like WOTLk were it doesnt take 10 hours a night to down a couple of bosses? or will it be like old skool were you have to dedicate a day to a raid?

I understand it like VoA where each instance only a few bosses. Not sure how hard they be though but I can't imagine the first ones being very hard.
 
its obvious gobbo mage all the way !

Thats what I plan to roll anyways. Well as an alt :p

I got my red bull ready for cata release :D I really do hope one of my CE's show up on monday or at least early tuesday.
 
Goblin is surprisingly awesome. Tauren Priest is horrible, its alright for a laugh but it just feels so wrong :(

I keep using the hat to be Goblin male until Cata is released, its awesome (female is great too but I'm not a fan of female characters)!

If you buy a race change now by the way (so have the button next to your character), you'll be able to use it immediately when Cataclysm goes live as the Goblin icon wont be greyed out like it is now. I've had this confirmed by a GM and a blue poster on the customer support forum so I assume its good information.

Just means you dont have to lose any leveling time if you want to change to Goblin, as the website will likely crash :p :)
 
I'll level a goblin shadowpriest probably, but only to try out the starting area. They won't be much of an advantage over any other races.
 
Blizzard are fairly unpredictable, I wouldn't assume anything.

The foremost thing is that you like the look of what you are playing in most cases, racials should come second to that.
 
That said the Worgen running race was freaking insane in beta and that got "toned" down a bit.

Its still going to be silly for WSG. This is what I forsee.
Worgen stealths into base. Grabs flag, blinds anyone nearby. Racial..... sprint.... nitroboots (assuming they don't explode) ... speed boost (if needed) ... WIN

lol it will be a sick pvp talent thats for sure. I will prob do a worgen just to see the starting zone as I really do like the worgen vibe. Really do wish they were horde but sadly the undead had to go and bomb them lol
 
I've been out of the loop for sometime, has it been 100% confirmed that you can race change to Goblin/Worgen straight from the start?
 
As far as I am aware they removed all race specific realm first achievements. I think there is still the class first, but tbh I'm not so sure on that.
