Thinking of starting WOW

The dreadsteed quest is a real pain in the bum, I had to wait till lvl 67ish to get mine as the items were really hard to come by (and very expensive) but it is one of the best mounts :D

A few points to make on this.

1. You do not need to use to AH, EVER, using the AH at low levels is fine but most people I know end up spending everything they have on crappy greens and never being able to afford mounts and stuff they actualy need.

2. the AH is equal, saying ones better than the other is like saying one faction is better than the other, i.e utter bull.

3. Epic flying mount costs 200g, not 2000g.



My advice:

Pick trade skills that are useful for leveling, such as on a warrior take mining and Blacksmithing to make armor and weapons that are better than quest rewards.

Sell quest rewards.

Never use the AH for armor/weapons unless it will last you AT LEAST 10 levels, and even then only from lv40, you'll level too quickly before this for anything to be worth buying.

Depends on the server, on my server (Nagrand) Alliance auction house does have more people putting items for sales - I am assuming this is because it is heavily alliance biased.
 
With regards to the AH thing, as mentioned each server will be different. Mainly down to population.

I'm on Khadgar, there are far more Alliance on our server. Thats not to say the horde AH is dead though. There are still lots of auctions on both factions. The one thing on Khadgar that is different is cost. eg stack of runecloth: Horde - ~5g on Alliance - ~12g
 
Ah can be very addictive at times. But personally I love the market in my server. As I farm all the materials myself whatever I sell at I make a profit. So I just undercut everyone by about 4g and still make a killing.

Still dont understand why some people sell items for like 100-200g on things under L40. Sure you get no real use out of them. There must be a lot of people out there with loads of money to spend that on alts.
 
Don't kit yourself out in full greens, certainly not if level 10 items sell for 7g like my server, but if you are a physical DPS class then always having an up-to-date weapon is nice (not blues ofc).

Get mining and skinning/herb. I just started a warrior on a new server, got 30g at lvl 13, got 400g at lvl 30 on another server. :)

What about skinning/mining?
 
so these RP-PvP servers, do you actually have to RP on them?

I don't want to have to say something like "I verily don mineth robe and wizard hatten!" when i want to join an instance.....or whatever.
 
Sorry, I'm just curious, but could you explain what this entails to a standard player?



err...Roleplayerspeak? :o

Well you treat it like any other server really, you pm people for groups, you talk about whatever you like. But some people like to RP, so you be respectful to those that want to do it. Personally I dont as I only joined to be on the same server as a friend.

I havent actually spoke to anyone that has been hardcore RP but you see them talking in the taverns and such.

And names should be called something to sound like they are from the wow universe rather something like "bigbilltheplumber82"

understand? ;)
 
I rolled an alt on an RP server with the aim to join one of the large raiding guilds on there, so far there's been no smack talking but I'm really wondering what Barrens chat is going to be like..
 
Anyone offer some advice on combos? When Im in cat form for druid the little lights go up the side, whats that about and how do I take advantage of them?

They are Combo points, some abilities require combo points to use, the most points you have on a mob the more effective the ability will be.
