Actually, all it took was 3 WSG wins.  Server is nice and young.

I hit ~115 Enchanting yesterday thanks to all the donations from you guys.  This means I'm starting to finaly hit the level of "useful" enchantments and I'm buying them as I get the cash to do so.

Those of you who melee primarily, I can perma enchant beastslaying (+2 dmg vs beasts) or minor impact (+1 dmg vs all).  Those who use shields I have a +30 armor enchant I can do as soon as I track-down some level 17-20 greens to get Lesser Astral Essences from.

I don't know about enchantments for my mage, but certainly keep the cloth armor a-coming.  I'll keep the cloth donations coming your way in return!  I'm finally getting wool drops now.

I hit 120 in leatherworking last night thanks to a decent consignment of leather from Kelthos.  I should be able to sort out some of those greens for you.

I could also use some potions of minor agility from any Alchemists we have.  Then I can make some pretty neat gloves.

I'll send some potions your way.

I hit Alchemy 185 last night and my Herbalism is almost at 200. They other three skills are sitting at 150 until I get some books.

[Morfiend]

I could use any minerals you guys have spare. I am going to be working on Blacksmithing, and I hear it takes a buttload of materials. I have about 60 copper saved up in my bank, so that should help me get up a bit. Also, I can make sharpening stones and wetstones to add damage to your weapons. Its not much, but at low levels every little bit helps.

I think so far my skill is at 15 blacksmithing, but I have only made sharpening stones so far.

[Der Helm]

I started blacksmithing as well...

And let me add (just in case nobody did before) ...







Catasses!

Seriously, I have a smithy on a normal server at 270 and I'd do it completely different than I did.  I did as you want to do and keep skilling as you go up in lvl.  However, I'd not even work on smithing skill except for the sharpening stones and sell the ore on AH.  You could either sell or keep the gems you find, but I'd even just sell those.

Reason?  On a young server you will want the money now and people will be willing to pay for the stuff more now than later when it is easier to get.  The items you can make as you level are not all the great compared to those that can be found or sent to you by a guildie.

The really good stuff is into the iron and mithril stages and that is a ways off for you anyway.  Once you get a horse just range the low level areas for copper, tin, and iron.  You'll get buttloads of it quickly and can burn your skill levels up really really fast.  It will slow a bit at mithril, but even then you can get the ore way quicker on a mount.  You hit a wall at around 240-250 as thorium is needed and much tougher to get, but that is where you will see a real benefit from smithing the level appropriate items for yourself/guild or for sale.

Build your mining up as you go and sell the stuff for the things you need now.  Save all plans you find or buy on the cheap until you can use them.  You may even want to take skinning or herbalism or enchanting (disenchant to get ingredients) for awhile to augment your income until you are reading to grind the smithy skill. (I suggest skinning since you will be producing dead beasts constantly anyway.  Herb is second but you have to go out of your way to find the plants.  The dead beasts will be right in front of you.)

Of course this isn't very RP and does require some downtime grinding later in the game.  Up to you.  Just advise from experience.

I may roll up a char this evening.  Are there any class voids that need filled?

We seem to be covered on Warriors, Rogues, and Shaman. Not mayny Priests or Druids (as is always the case).

We could use more healers (Druids or Priests).

Also we're low on Mage, I think.

[Train Wreck]

Zulartic, Priest

[HRose]

I didn't have much time to play but my priest still exists if you want to invite me.

/quit for now

I may come on when everyone's up to par or something. This game sucks for soloing.

Man, this game is so easy to solo at. Specially if your a rogue. Its almost to easy to solo.

[Merusk]

He doesn't mean the game, he means the ganking.  Stray's in Ashenvale/ Hillsbrad now and was getting wtfpwned by groups of high 30s alliance.  Can't blame him for getting frustrated.

I dunno, I died a lot as a rogue...though I'm one of those that rarely run from a fight, even if I get low on hp. A lot of my fights ended with me at 10% or lower.

Run into a bad string of rolls, and you get rolled.

That and I'm not really happy with LFGing all the time. I like to have people around that I like to play with (my fault, I know). Soloing isn't hard. It's just boring and full of interferences.

*Not that I don't like the two players who are my level though (MrHat and Shockeye). It's just hard to get a hold of them.

How is it hard? We're on like all the fucking time :P

It's cool man, I've just been running BG's until people catch up.  Do come back though ok?  Like I said before, the overall feeling I'm going for with this guild is just play while you're having fun.  If you stop having fun, go do something else.

I'll probably come back. Give me a week.

As for fun, I've finally come to accept that fun in an mmo is not a viable thing without group/guild play. Even hum drum, run of the mill, boring as shit quests seem to take on a different personality when there's....People around. And self defense becomes an actual option too. Which is why I hopped on this server in the first place. I'll just have to wait and see though.

Hey, I just want to work as a team and a guild. And not have to fend off a dozen attacks by myself every night. If that makes me a whiner, then so be it.

[edit] Btw, I handle things fine by myself I might add. I just don't want to. What's the point?

[Shockeye]

If you are getting your ass kicked in a certain zone, there's plenty of other ones to go to.

[stray]

If you are getting your ass kicked in a certain zone, there's plenty of other ones to go to.

Eh...That's not the point. I'm winning, I'm losing, whatever. But it's by myself.

Or sometimes, I'm getting help from a random horde team, etc..

And yeah, I can go to other zones....But by myself. I even asked you earlier if you wanted to do Stone Talon, but you were doing something else. In Stone Talon at that! This is what I'm talking about.

And I can get into pickup groups easily enough...But what's the point of that if I have a guild?

I'll just wait is all I'm saying. We're not playing together here, and that's not at all what I planned. There's no point in guilds if we're not all on the same page.

[Flood]

Well I feel you. 

I left my previous server almost entirely due to the fact that being solo makes the game anti-fun, and being solo in a PvP setting makes the game painful.
And, I agree that at a certain point if we don't do things as a group(s), what's the point of the guild?


But - to counterpoint - You just flat ass outlevelled me.  (And most folks I think)  I'd love to go run some quests, or just look for trouble.  But I need to catch you first. 

Although I am levelling like mad now.  I will be 23 tomorrow easily.  So hang around, roll an alt or something but I'd hate to see a good player leave. 

[MrHat]

He's not leaving, he's having too much fun.  Just doesn't want to ruin the experience.

Ditto on the outlevelnig.  I play way too much as it is for someone with a job and kids and I'm only at 5 bubs from 23.. and I'm only there because I took yesterday off and catassed.   Flood, Me and Kheld were grouping up in Barrens last night, and a group of us are doing WC tonight or tomorrow, so it's not like we don't group.  You just blew past those of us who do.

Oh, and Shock was farting around farming gold for the tabard yesterday.  That's probably why he declined you.

[Dren]

Yeah, you all should slow down, yo.  :-D


Actually, if you want to have grouping fun then I'd suggest starting some alts and keeping them 5-10 levels apart from each other.  If nobody is on that is in your main's lvl range, log on with one that is in the middle of most and you'll probably find people in the guild willing to party.  I'm probably going to have to do that so I have a character to play with my friend that joined.  Even though I'm casual (1.5 hour a night, maybe 6 total on the weekend,) my friend is ultra-casual with maybe 4-7 hours played all week.

If grouping is your main focus and what makes the games fun for you, then position yourself to make the best of the situation.  Be an alt-aholic like me.

[Shockeye]

You don't get to post in this thread let alone this forum. Go away.

Ninjaing chests for the sake of the guild tabard.  Robin Hood would be proud.  :-D

[Shockeye]

Ok, tabard purchased.

I suggest buying your tabard from whereever you are honored.

Cost is 1g or 90s if you buy where honored.
