Especially discipline priests fall off quite hard once the damage gets really high and they cant "steal" all healing via shields. I have a 70 monk right now, ill level a priest second. Trying out the monk before i submit to Chakras :D Also, i agree that servers had better communities once there wasnt autogrouping, but being matched for dungeons and being able to start a dungeon within 5 minutes also has its upsides. | ||

Monks pretty much tank healers though. There aoe healing is limited to uplift and the totem thingy and throwing healing spheres everywhere xD But yeah play both and try the difference, the best way | ||

...Eve is a fucking Economy-Simulation and no MMORPG. There is no, and will never be, a MMO like WoW Vanilla/TBC. -_- | ||

Is there anything similar to a scroll of resurrection (ie. the level boost to 80) that doesn't require an inactive account that has been inactive since March 2012? I have an old account I bought the Battle Chest for (for legitimate WC3, mostly) but that was April 2012 so I missed the cut off point. | ||

Not long after, they released a giaaaaaaant nerf hammer on Sunwell and it all became trivial again. That was pretty much when I realised that the amount of effort to stay ahead of the 'nerf curve' wasnt really enough for me to want to keep playing/raiding. Loved my time playing it, but as others said, the original realms etc with 'elite players' that had an almost legend/myth behind them... you'd occasionally see them port in from a raid dungeon you havent even seen yet and idolise their character before they went off and werent seen for another week or so. It just made it seem more like a real scenario, rather than a heap of nobodise with random alts and shit all floating around namelessly queuing for crossrealm dungeons. I was one of those people back in the day, and it was fun.  My raiding guild was top 50 US and the best by a long shot on my small server. I also ran a casual raid 2 nights a week, and we were 4th on our server in progression - which was huge as we beat some raiding guilds doing up to 4 nights a week and were true casual players. I was head of a casual LFG type thing that was server wide. We organized 30 raids between almost 100 small guilds so people could raid back then that could only commit between 1 and 3 nights a week depending. It fostered so many relationships. Had an open Black Temple run too, where we managed to down the first 6 bosses too with complete weekly PUGs. Was so much fun what you could accomplish.Then dailies came in to the picture. I hated dailies. Heroic modes of bosses were really lame. It was hard to muster any sort of raid team to work on heroic modes of bosses they had already killed. I ended up quitting half way through WOTLK, along with many of the other guilds and runs on our server. Even after I quit and was still running our mass server PUG, the eventual nail in the coffin was the LFG tool. It's definitely good and bad, but it took away some of the epicness of raiding. I think what I miss the most is just having to work on something. Rather than do the same 30 daily quests over and over grinding reputation, I'd rather have to do a big quest chain going through various dungeons to get attuned to a new area. When you finished, you had a sense of accomplishment. Even if you were casual, it gave you an end point to work on over time. I started playing PVP again for MoP and it's not bad. I can't get into raiding at all though anymore, even though I used to love it. I don't touch daily quests so I can't get reputation gains to buy PVE epics. I enjoy doing dungeons a lot, but I really don't need any of the gear anymore. Raids with faceless people are really boring too... I haven't made any new friends since I started playing again. It seems like everyone is anonymous and just does group things by themselves. It doesn't feel a lot much of a social game anymore. | ||

Only druids suck these days, but thats because every other class is not worried about going oom anymore and just spams heals so the druid hots dont even have time to heal someone. | ||

Spreadsheets online? Anyway, don't feed the troll, he'll just say he doesn't like any game that you put forth as an example either to be a dick or because he just doesn't like MMO games at all (or both). Personally, I've had a bunch of free time over the last month and have used it playing The Secret World, which is basically WoW-lite. Fairly enjoyable if monotonous. | ||

I like the tank gameplay, but the whole theme with throwing kegs is irritating. Mistweaver is...well. It heals for a LOT, but you cant really react to damage, you have to allready have the mists on the target that take heavy ae damage. I dont know, i didnt like it that much. Leveling a druid now, who are kind of behind a bit in healing, but by the time i catched up, who knows :D | ||
