[PC Game] World of Warcraft: Catch All Thread

I think it's all RNG. One run I had 7 Gold chests and 3 keys, the next week I found 3 Golds and no keys. This week I've gotten 5 Golds and one key.
That's some strange RNG because in all 4 of my runs I got at least 5-6 Gold Chests each run. Still only got keys on my first run.
 
I'm super impressed that you all are getting so many keys. My monk hasn't seen one yet.

speaking of my monk...another weapon this morning lol...I have quite the collection.
 
Some 5.3 spoilers below:



Sorry Alliance, I think this is goodbye for awhile. Horde stuff is getting way more interesting this next patch.
 
OTOH, it is still quite nice to *not* have to play always looking over my shoulder expecting to be stomped into the ground by someone 20-30 levels higher than me *cough*Dark Iron*cough*.

It's also still a bit unnerving to not have to do that. :hide:
 
When I originally played it was on a PVP server. It was so bizarre to level up my lock without being paranoid.[DOUBLEPOST=1364582870][/DOUBLEPOST]I am going to work on my ally hunter though. I'm very curious to see how things are in the new patches and I love hunters.

(Also have to catch all the pets!)
 
I just can't stand playing alliance for some reason. I tried to do it so I could play with you guys, but I have a feeling it just burnt me out and then I just quit all together.

I fired it up again, but I don't think I can go back to alliance. I'm having too much fun with my hordies.
 
My highest is 85. I've neglected them since wrath. I'm going to get to work on him next week and hopefully get to 90 soon. Dang family stuff getting in the way! I'll definitely let you know when I get there.
 
Now that I'm going to have more gaming time, it's time to come back to WoW, and since it's been forever since I played horde... HORDE TIME!

So... we have any horde halforum server, or at least one that's well populated?

Seems like everyone from here who was Alliance side on Wyrmrest Accord has gone Horde or quit completely.

I'm on Moonguard, I don't think anyone else is on it with me. I'm all alone in an old guild a friend and I had. :foreveralone:

I still can't get on. Turns out that about the time someone was spamming my account, my credit card expired and my account ran out. I'll be back, but it might not be until May.
 
I can't decide on what class to play on Alliance side to 90 and experience the story with. I have a 90 Druid (Mostly tired of it), an 85 Shaman (Good but not great at soloing old content later on), an 80 Hunter (so far so good but so many freakin buttons to press....), or Faction change some of my others: 80 Rogue, 85 Mage, or simply level a new Alliance class all together (Priest/Warrior/Death Knight).

Mage in Pandaria sucks. So many cluster mobs and you are too damned squishy. Rogue is great for soloing, but trying to get into runs can be problematic. I actually hate to do runs with a rogue because all of my skills are set for slow & careful instead of RUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUN!!!
 
Well it'd mainly be for the story to be honest as my Horde PLD is my main. She's the one I do all my raiding on. So I think I'm just being flakey....
 
A DK will give you a head start, and if you aren't going to play it all that often it might not matter if you're not a huge fan of the play style. They're also great at soloing stuff.[DOUBLEPOST=1364837975][/DOUBLEPOST]I've been putting together a transmog set for my warrior, and this is what I've come up with so far.

I'm thinking of switching the axes to the Arcanite Reaper, but it feels like that seems overdone now. Also would like to find a better belt.

I'm kind of addicted to transmogging now...
 
Hunter! Fantastic at soloing stuff and great in groups as well! Locks are great in Pandaria as well. My tank monk was painfully slow.[DOUBLEPOST=1364838158][/DOUBLEPOST]Your hunter could fly through the Cata levels.

Maybe I should change from BM to Marksmanship? It's just way too many hotkeys to worry about in rotation.
 
Beast Mastery Hunter is all of like 4 buttons to press. Serpent Sting, Kill Command, Arcane Shot filler, Cobra Shot. You only have Beastial Wrath and Rapid Fire as major DPS cooldowns, and with a tank pet you'll be able to handle any over-pulls or rare mobs with ease.

Currently on rotation for BM Hunter:
Steady Shot, Serpent Sting, Arcane Shot, Dire Beast, Kill Command, Blink Strike, Kill Shot.
Bestial Wrath, Rapid Fire, Focus Fire, are DPS cooldowns.

Maybe I'm just spoiled and used to my PLD's 3-4 key playstyle but BM is killing me.
 
Stampede, Glaive toss, murder of crows... But yes it's not crazy. Tank pets are great, but I usually can solo over pulls with a cat or spirit beast easily. I used to play MM, but love Beast Mastery. Also, a lot of the exotic pets have multiple special abilities which is really helpful.

I've revisited my 72 ally hunter and she can kill pretty fast at that level too.
 
Serpent Sting is a set and forget if you're using Cobra Shot to refund Focus (it replaces Steady for BM, Steady's only used in the MM rotation), so that's basically not even an issue. Generally I do it like this:

Serpent Sting
Kill Command kept on cooldown
Blink Strike kept on cooldown (or save it for Bestial Wrath)
Arcane Shot filler till about 40~ Focus
Cobra Shot to refresh SrS and refund Focus (usually get about two shots in)
Repeat from KC

If you don't already, you can set up a macro to use BW/Blink Strike/Dire at the same time, too. Lumping cooldowns like that can usually help. Regardless though most mobs are dead by the time you hit your third KC even in leveling gear.

I dunno though, all my main hotkeys are bound right around WASD so usually nothing seems too bad to me. So far the only thing I've played that's a bit overwhelming is Brewmaster Monk. Shit's got like 6 different cooldowns to watch plus the rotation.
 
You can't macro multiple GCD commands since 5.2 unfortunately or it'd be alot easier.

Also I do not have Cobra Shot yet, just hit 80.
