Anyone still playing?

People are starting to level 60 and then locking themselves at that level and running the older 40 man raids with 10 people. I kind of want to resub to try it out haha.

Also there's teh WoW Token now where you can exchange gold for gametime.

I tried like 6 months ago to play again but I just couldn't stick with it. Pretty much just play Guild Wars 2 these days.

WoW free-to-play yet?

Not free, but you can buy your monthly fee with gold now. 30K I think?

www.warmane.com is a free to play wow server. I have a char on frostmane, but it gets wrecked because everyone is geared to the gills.

On Korgath it is currently 22k, I just checked like 2 days ago with my "starter" lvl 20 twink toon. Got ~ 470k in gold so that is close to 2 yrs worth of game time but still did not get the "itch" to play again even after trying the lvl 20 AV...

Maybe with the next xpac (like how i skipped cata and only came back for panda)

It's about 22k on Kil'Jaeden as well. Don't have enough to last me 2 years though :( I resubbed and going to see how hard it is to make that a month. Or maybe join SkinnyPup on that private server. Seems like a better way to get that WoW fix haha.

They have XP cranked way up, so you can level pretty quick. I leveled from 1 to 55 in a couple hours, then started a DK and boosted it to 90 using some free coins I had (their version of in-app purchases)

Servers can be kind of buggy though (I'm on the MoP server - they have a WoD server but it's even worse), and my ping is like 300. Not sure how long I'll keep playing. Being so far behind in PVP gear (most people pay real money to gear up) really sucks. I last like 10 seconds in arena...

The new World of Warcraft expansion was announced last week. Legion


The Demon Hunter class is being added. Illidan is back. New PvP system. Artifact weapons

^^ all I know is their active sub have drop to 5.8m.

Subscriber went from 10m to 5.6m in about half a year!!

WOD was by far the worst expansion.
There was only 2 major patches this whole expansion.
And of one them was the ability to take selfies ingame? :fulloffuck:

However, I'm a blizz fanboy and would probably get the expansion.

Can also prepurchase Legion and you'll get a level 100.

Thinking of preordering and using it towards a priest or something. Still have a couple level of alts to level though :(

sauce?

Here you go: https://us.battle.net/shop/en/produc...arcraft-legion

My guess is that since WOD and later the WoW Token released some of the smaller bot farming gold sellers may have gone out of business. On one of the WoW groups on Facebook it seems a huge chunk of them have 6 figures of gold on their accounts. Adding this to the lack of content and lots of folks not liking WoD in general and there you go.

Tokens are around 30K+ on some servers

I havent event got WoD. I'll pick it up when it goes on sale close to the release of the next one.

IMO, WoD was the best expansion as far as leveling to the level cap. After that, I got bored and stopped playing.

Not much to do after that either aside from garrisonville :)

But I'm still subbed trying to get a few more of my alts to 100.

For someone who hasn't played since wrath what are the Coles notes on biggest changes?

I read about the demon hunter class coming up and out sounds cool. Then I noticed there have been a few race and class additions since I last played.

IMO I think the worst expansion in terms of fun is WoLK. I mean is cool you get to kill LK himself but overall the class damage, tanks HP, Healers MP was out of hand. As a tank I shouldn't be able to have over 200k HP and as a healer I should be going OOM if my teams did something bad. But that wasn't the case I could spam heals all day and never go OOM (Resto Druid). And doing over50K damage? I think the only thing blizzard did back then was make it so boss have more HP, Does more damage by add DoTs to everyone in the raid and that's it.

Haven't play for over 2 years.

I think one of the biggest change to look forward to in Legion is the new pvp system.

PVP specific skills tree and talent.

Wow always been a mess with class balance. If they buff/nerf a skills in PVP, it might get overpower or be useless in PVE.
The new pvp system will change that.

If ya haven't snagged WoD...now's the time ! ! !
