I know, I know.
I'm bored, and feel like doing some MMO stuff again.
Problem is, last time I quit (once I got my 60 to 70, I deleted everything except the character), I left nothing on my character. No bags, no gear, no weapons, no gold, no mounts; nothing.
I'm not really interested in playing my mage again, though. What I'm interested in doing is just soloing.
It might defeat the purpose of an MMO, but I liked soloing. I soloed from 60-70, and I loved it more than sitting around trying to get into a decent guild so I could leech off of everyone else and go raid. I love questing, and I love grinding. (I'm weird.)
So, what classes would be ideal to solo with? I do not want a class that uses pets. Seriously. I find pets to be an absolutely disgustingly annoying part of the game.
I've played mages extensively, and didn't like the downtime. I've played warriors before for a while, so they're fun, but I'm not so sure how easy it is to solo with them.
Rogues seem to be pretty fragile, and I'm looking for something better in terms of health and armor.
So that's why I'm leaning towards classes like shamans, paladins, and druids.
Thoughts?

find a diff hobby u_u;;
with all the time you spend, you could learn a new language or something :o~~

This is just going to be a casual thing like when I tried BC for a couple weeks. ;;
|
you still have yet to say if your horde or alliance.
Say horde and I'll end you
Cheers ^^
|
I'm Horde. Always.
I've tried playing Alliance a few times. The amount of stupidity in all honesty was just staggering. Besides, my RL friends were Horde before I even started playing, so it's not like I was left with much choice.
I'm not saying all Alliance players are bad; but a majority of those I've met have been pretty damn stupid.

Yeah you can be the undead gank rouges, fucking everyone hates them, but to be friends with them is love.
Plus they > warlocks which is their only competition.

Rogues are by far the most class (besides maybe Warrior) to solo with for me Try it... go combat swords, have fun! They are very good solo'ers, with first aid you will have virtually no downtime ever.
It's too bad you don't like pet classes because I rather enjoy hunters too
Warriors are pretty bad ass though yeah for soloing, with first aid little downtime, with good weapons you will tear through some mobs quickly.
|
Play a game called Fury instead. AFAIK its just like top level Wow Arena play except its less MMOish. Try it out I've heard a lot of good stuff about it and its free.
|
Lol I love how the guy wants to solo and no one mentions Hunters. Soloing a hunter is like playing WoW with training wheels
|
paladins are fun characters to solo with, prot pallies can solo aoe grind a fuckton of mobs that are higher level than them even. But at lower levels, they arent as effective at it.
Druids are a fun solo class, because they have alot of variety, for example, if you feel like playing a warrior-like class, you can go bear form, or cat form for a rogue like experiance.
rogues arent really a fun solo, its just.. pressing 3 buttons over and over with very little fun :/
But as everyone says.. dont play wow again, it seriously messes up your life.
|
I've played horde and alliance to 70, and honestly there's no real difference in the population intelligence wise. Cept maybe in BGs where horde always wins.

Ooh lastshadow you started playing wow? nice
Anyways, I'm like you rpf; I really don't like getting into a guild and doing like 200 hour raids or w/e -_-;;;
Anyways, I play a Blood Elf Warlock and she's soooooooooooooo fun to just go around killing stuff with :D
Some idiot Alliance people (all like 40 levels below me) JUST decided to attack me (I'm 70) and umm ... it was not pretty
|
I agree with Equiniox and Steve. If WoW fucks up your life, you need to take control of yourself.

Fury isn't an MMORPG... it's a 3rd person arena... thing.
edit: It's really good for passing the time, though. Start the battles right off with other people... just get a friend on vent and you're good to go for a bit

Druid would be the obvious choice out of the classes you listed. I've got a full tier2 pvp warrior, and he sucks at farming. I've got a full tier2 pvp paladin, and..paladins just suck at farming. They do low damage, take a lot of mana, gear, etc. I've got an almost full tier2 pvp warlock, and i think I'd still take a druid over him for farming.
What you get from a druid: High DPS in cat form. Not to mention, abillity to stealth No mana cost to kill fast. Ability to heal, and regen mana while killing in cat form. Bear form, ability to take a lot of damage Cheetah form, ability to run away if you ever might die. Swim Form, for anything in water Flight Form..now this is just insane. The ability to fly away in an instant, while ooc. If you get epic flight form, this is just be insane.
I mean, no other class has anywhere near the versatility.
|
Druids can solo anything.
|
Go take some BJJ or Muay Thai, wow sucks.
|
if Rpf just got a girlfriend
|
About a month ago I got pissed off in a raid, said "fuck this game, I quit" I haven't played the game since.
|
druid is awesome.
super fun. lots of variety. extremely diverse class.
highly suggest it

I didn't read the rest of thread but I have a couple of friends that play WoW. And it appears to me it completely consumes your life.
|
Sounds pretty crappy to be honest.
If you want some great solo fun I suggest downloading a snes emulator and play chrono trigger.
|
pala's are nice to solo with as u don't need to rest/eat between everybattle, but mages are the best to solo with. free food and drink. too
|
|
I took a shadow priest to 70 and it was pretty fun - though they get pretty monotonous, moreso than a mage, paladin, or warrior (the other classes I have experience with.)
|
if u ask blizz, they can restore your character to whatever gear and stuff u had, enchants cant be restored tho
|
MMO is biggest waste of time. I'm 3 years into med school now and I could be a doctor and working on my surgical residency by now if it wasn't for everquest and lineage... You should put your energy toward doing something that will make you happy in the long run rather than 'occupy you' for a short time. When you're bored of that you can always stop to play a casual game like sc... 10-30 minute games as opposed to a neverending time sink.
Nooffense to ppl who play MMO's... i used to play em ... i also used to do massive amounts of cocain and go raving 6 nights a week and the MMO was a larger mistake than the partying.
While raving I still got my work done, but with MMO's I just put everything aside... I guess everyone is different, but if you have any goals at all you should deffinately look at how playing an MMO could effect that.
gl w/ ur mage~!

Paraphrased conversation:
Me: Hi, I'm an idiot, and just before I quit last time I deleted everything on my character and I want my character restored back to the way it was.
GM: Do you know what items you want restored?
Me: I don't remember all of the item names. I thought you were able to see my account's history.
GM: I can't restore your account.
Me: I think it's stupid that I pay so much money for this game, and you can't rectify one mistake.
I'm SOL.
A friend sent me gold to buy some greens (of the Sorcerer) so I'll just farm some gold once I have that, make myself some bags, and so on.
|
You get 3 restores per account. You don't need to know anything other than that. If you really want your shit back just say, "someone hax0r me halp!!"
|
rpf do you want a priest? im quitting wow, and i have full merc glad gear and shit. PM me for more info.
|
Tyrant, I used like, seven restores. :D

And yes, obviously, it was a mistake to delete my stuff. Thanks for letting me know; I hadn't realized that on my own.

I was amazed people could get €200 for a character, guess it's not that crazy at all

Some people rather work for a few weeks and buy an account rather than grind it out for 3-4 months to build the character themselves.

there is no leverage. no one gives a shit whether or not you personally are paying $15 a month or not

It was wishful thinking, Steven, Esq.

Play a Druid, they are by far the funnest class in the game to play through the game.

|

If anyone has any info on a good site to sell my account I would <3 them. Think I can get some money from my gladiator shaman w/ epic armored drake mount.

I think we should stop posting comments about selling characters, as it is illegal....-_-;;
|
We're not selling the characters, we're selling the TIME we spent on them ^_^
My friend told me about the loophole in Blizzard's ToA -_-

WoW eats your soul, dont do it young skywalker!

Only thing that's illegal is my 200$ worth of subscription going to waste when they released an expansion destroying any value my character had before it.
