WoW Speak

[nockergeek]

The concept of starting up another character on a new server and working on getting him up to level 60 is a bit daunting. It took me 10 months to get my paladin, Keegan, up to 60 on the Blackhand server (although to be fair, part of that was due to Blackhand's early post-launch instabilities). There was a lot of solo play in there - a lot - and I still mostly solo due to my schedule, so I'm questioning whether I want to do it all over again. I mean, I do - I want to keep playing the game - and moving to the Perenolde server seems inevitable at this rate. I'm just worried that I'll just be hitting 60 after the expansion comes out next year, and with everyone I know on Perenolde already in the 50s-60s, I'll be way behind there, too.

I think that I am doomed to eternally play catch-up. I did it in DPS, I did it in the Impossibles, and if I switch to Perenolde, I'll do it in whatever guild I end up in there.

Eh, I'll be catching up too. I couldn't start playing with the other locals 'cause I didn't have the computer for it. So I saved up, and then my car got hit by the city plow, thus allowing me to afford a new computer. This was in February after it came out. The guys had told me they'd wait up, and help me out and start lower characters to play with me when I finally got a computer. And then...they didn't. They sent me stuff, and helped once or twice, but there was no guild we were all in for chat and a feel of companionship, so I was alone most of the time. People would /w sometimes, but that's not the same as watching a channel go by while killing monsters. So...I left Thunderlord.

Now I'm equally behind on Blackhand. Mostly 'cause I don't devote ALL my spare time to WoW. I play it sometimes, and surf online sometimes, and watch anime sometimes, and sort cards sometimes. Sometimes, I even go out and play a tabletop rpg with people! Heh. Also, I don't really care about "endgame". I'd be happy just being able to putz around and slay things with friends, and craft shit for people. So...it will be interesting.

You and I have pretty much the same WoW playstyle and wants out of the game.

Honestly, I don't think the Impossibles will recover from this.

Oh, I know. It's just a matter of when that happens. If I switch, it'll be in the next two weeks or so, and I don't think we'll see paid transfers in that timeframe. I still either have to start a new character, or sit on the old one until then.

Well hell dude, at least it won't be hard to find help as much as I'm around if you started a new character. I've got a level 60 sure, so that would be your instance runner for you... but I've got little pansy alts that range from 1 to 30, so you just ask and I'd most likely be willing to help you.

I'm guessing that there's no way in hell that I can lure you back over to Blackhand, even for a little while?

Hrm. Perhaps. I'll have to see.
