** Official WoW Catalysm Alpha/Beta Thread **

Got my pala to 53 now, 2days played. really enjoying it. No boosting no +xp tools, completely differant experience leveling this time - I'm really really enjoying it.
 
Decided on my warrior as prot and within a few days have totally updated my gear to Tier 10/random items with JP and some drops from the higher iLvl instances.

If I heard correct if you want to save JP for the expansion the most you can hoard is 4,000 right?

Prot warrior is the way forward. ;)
 
Ive just lost the love for WoW recently. Holding out for CATA release so i can start enjoying the game again. There better be some epic quests for leveling :)
 
Not played much over the last few days, managed to hit 69 on my warrior, still enjoying it, game feels fresh since i last played it, looking forward to northrend levelling again as i've only done it the once before.

and i agree Prot is the way forward, currently done 1-69 as prot spec, never had a mob i couldn't solo including elites that are a few levels higher than me, also Random dungeon finder is almost instant when queued as a tank.

Prot is where it's at.
I did 1-64 in 2 weeks on my new prot warrior before I went back to my old one. Soloed almost every 5 man up until ramparts. The new victory rush is awesome!
They are even more fun in BGs now than they were pre-4.0, too. Glyphed and talented spell reflect, with warbringer and gag order will totally **** on 90% of casters. Only melee I have trouble with are ret paladins and well played arms warriors. Unfortunately we can't do much to healers though except stunlock/silence them.
I love my warrior. It's the only class I can play where I still have fun even when I'm rubbish. :D
 
Bah! I really dislike prot warrior in PvP.

The buggers take one hell of a beating lately.

I'm an arms warrior and you have to have amazing timing and attack order to get one down.

Found exactly the same on my pala leveling as prot is OP.

Vengence makes it ridiculous.

Prot Warriors used to be as good as un-killable by anyone 1v1 before the Warbringer/Revenge stun changes. Versus healers nobody would die and anyone who could not heal would die eventually.
 
The downloader seems to be preloading something... 4.0.3 due soon?

On a side note, me and the missus decided to just purchase Cataclysm through the Blizzard store. Sure, it's an extra fiver, but it's a good twenty mile round trip at midnight to get the sodding copies anyway.

I've decided to go with a Worgen Druid on an RP realm to be decided closer to the time.
 
The BG merge thing has been interesting, my Battlegroup (Rampage) has merged with Cyclone and Alliance seem to be winning quite a lot more. The Cyclone Alliance people probably arent too happy at how much we suck though!

4.0.3 is coming this week yes, world changes wont happen for another few weeks though, it's just pre loading of the data.
 
First raid tonight with new broadband installed (BT Infinity, getting around 36MB with a ping of around 30 - compared to latency fo around 300!) can't wait to see the difference!
 
having not played for 3 months i cant believe how i have just forgot how to play this. its like a new game again :p should pick it back up in a day or so tho :)
 
Took me a day of tanking to get back into full flow with my warrior.

Back to my old bad-ass self though :D

<3 Prot warrior complexity. Spread caster group packs are the best, in FoS.

Charge 1 caster, Heroic Throw silence the mid caster, taunt the back caster with Spell reflect up, stun now grouped mobs and continue to chain taunt rear mob with spell reflect use.
 
I guess this is normal mode only? Ahh yeah it is.
Just get a level 80 and run heroics tbh, you'll get 87 average per run not including the daily.


Edit: ahh someone already said.

Yeah, dinged 79 last night, now its just the slog to 80. Also working my way through the AT, got 12/25 of the token things I need for the quest, though I still need exhalted with the trolls and TB before I can get the title and start getting heirlooms through that. I was kinda hoping to have some before Cata hit through to help my new characters along. I'm currently planning on remaking all but my 2 main chars, since I'm having to re-learn all those classes, I might as well do it while playing through all the new 1-60 content with them as well.
 
4.0.3 drops this week, a blizz employee said 4.0.3a (the shattering) will occur very shortly after, as soon as next week :)

decided to roll a human hunter and orc mage until the worgen/goblins are available :)

Do you just play lots of characters up to level 20 and then reroll again? That must get boring :p
