Otherwise, enjoy the hilarity of the current 4.3 PTR for Elemental Shaman:

1st: This video is not sped up in any way, this is possible on the PTR right now.
2nd: He's not viably geared for anything but this video, he's 100% haste gemmed/enchanted/geared. (He went OOM in 24sec)
3rd: It's freakin hilarious everytime I watch it.

That's a lot of chain lightning...

or you run out of mana, it's kinda a coin toss with shamans the class of rng

Starting to wish I didn't use all my copy slots on other characters, that would have been fun to play with.

BTW Transmogrification is awesome. I know it's a feature that should have come ages ago, but does not stop me from being excited. Void Storage is still bullshit though.

I'm crazy excited for Transmog. The only downside is I can't wear my Illy's Blindfold on my sham. Oh well, Crown of Destruction it is!

I made a few outfits already. My DK has a combination of her old starter gear, like the dark hood, mixed with some T9. My orc, who I always envisioned with an eyepatch, will finally be able to wear one all the time, since I saved my Malfactor's Eyepatch from Outland all these years. Plus I can't wait to bring out my Warsong Howling Axe, favorite axe model in the game (It's basically Gorehowl Lite)

My Blood Elf Paladin is probably going to be the most unique looking. I still saved my Undead Slaying set from the Pre-WOTLK event, the one that I am sure most people have sold by now. It's a blue/greenish version of the classic T2 Judgement set and could only be gotten for those few weeks before WOTLK hit shelves. They are not planning any more invasion events now with Arthas gone, so I may be one of the only ones around to have it unless many more people held onto it.

Considering how many people will be sporting the red and purple versions, I will stick out well. =P

My biggest problem is deciding which to play: My Shaman (My oldest and probably most comfortable character) - Enhancement mostly, Warlord Title, most Feats of Strength, lots of rare and older gear for transmog including the quested tier .5 that's no longer available. My Paladin (My favorite character for it's tanking prowess) - Protection mostly, Most achievements of any characater, another large library of rare and older gear also including the quested tier .5 From all my 85s (6 in total) these are the two I debate the most. Mostly because I prefer my shaman but getting groups/raids together for anything is 100x easier as my Prot Pally.

I know how you feel. I have a total of 12 characters above 80, with my orc hunter and blood elf paladin holding the majority of my achievements and titles. Working on my first priest too, since I have avoided leveling a priest all these years. Sometimes I want to play but end up just shutting down the game because I can't figure out which one I want to play!

Sometimes I wish I was not such an altoholic. If I concentrated on one character throughout my WoW game life he would be the most decked out monster of the game.

I know exactly what you mean about the "one character main". At this point my only concern is not being able to do the LFR's succesfully or running older raids I never had a chance to accomplish or get rare gear drops for Transmog. With my shaman, that's going to be next to impossible as I'd rather be the competant tank with the shitty healers than the competant healer with the shitty tanks.

LFR is going to be great. People complain it will probably be too easy, since it's going to be scaled down even lower then normal difficulty, but who cares? The loot won't be as good either. That's part of the tradeoff.

I was peaking around the PTR files and the Deathwing fight looks insane based on what I have found.

They made a version of his model that is so huge that part of his back is the playable area, and you literally fight on his back pulling away his armor, all the while his "defense systems" in his body are fighting you, like magma blood elementals. They also made a new skybox that "flips" for the times he does a barrel roll to try and shake you off.

When you defeat him he crashes into the Maelstrom and his body just starts to melt. He takes up the whole Maelstrom in a fight similar to Kil'jaeden, where he pulls himself out and casts at you from the middle. From what I can tell he hold himself up using what's left of his arms and wings, which are now basically magma tentacles. Once you destroy those you attack his body and kill him off for good, making him sink into the Maelstrom.

All I can say is that without a raid guild, the fact I will be able to easily PuG these fights sounds awesome. I just want to experience them more then worry about loot.

Yeah, I look forward to pugging the new content but once I've completed it, I want to be able to go back and do all the stuff prior that I'm missing. I've never played WoW for the gear, even if I was server first raiding for a few years. It was mostly for the experience of it. Now that I can exprience the content anyway, I'm hoping to do it with a character flexible enough to do anything at any time.

Yeah, the LFR sounds like the perfect stepping stone between dungeons and guild raids. The haters can basically go cry into their better gear from harder raid content.
