You don't. Your entire account is just for the stress test and the account will be deleted.

We can bring the server down for half the day every Tuesday as well to make it more "Blizzlike"........ If you are not fond of /world chat don't join it. Shouldn't bother you what other people do. Being new to forum and the two post thus far are "let me be uncensored completely" and "prevent people from communicating".

Many people still have your old address bookmarked and think your site is down. Address forwarding needs to be setup.

A list of changes or "patch notes" to what has been done on the core should be released to us prior to the server being relaunched. If your issue is not included in that, bump the issue tracker for it and they should eventually get to it.

You are experiencing lag mostly because everybody is in the same zones. Spread out and go to a zone without a lot of people to get a better understanding of what to expect.

Yes it is

Is there an addon that removes this buff automatically when a pally cast a bubble on you? Similar to how some addons will automatically remove blessing of salvation? I'd like to be able to have a pally bubble me to clear debuffs with out boss turning for too long on a dps.

The person that mentioned summoning stones for instance is wrong. Summoning stones did not exist in Vanilla. There are "meeting stones". Popular safe spot to wait for the rest of your group to walk there. Safe belong a relative word.

@gotmilk second rule of farm club....

Go to the priest section of the forum for your leveling talents guide. You are over thinking the healing concerns. You will be fine

Mid WotlK

You may want to bank any decent DPS gear you get for when you farm solo. There are low level *30-40 that level 60s farm for raid mats so even if you are a pure healer or tank you can still farm effectively. Or if you are a gatherer, helps too w/o making a difference of spec too much.

Also don't spam instances for experience, it is terrible exp per hour compared to soloing even with the weakest solo classes by atleast 2x slower. Do instances when you got a good amount of quest for that 5 man. Level as dps spec, since you'll spend 150-170 hours grinding and questing vs 15-30 hours in 5 mans at MOST.

Don't be worried about the people saying it is hard or you would get kicked. Most of the raw + healing talents are further down the talent trees. The difference you'll see in low and mid level 5 mans is that you may have to drink a bit more between pulls.

Yes or maybe around level 58/59 if you get invites for 5 mans.

Crusader isn't gonna proc off your spells, and like Duki said, SoR isn't proccing it atm, so only your auto attacks are gonna proc it. 1 PPM from auto-attack only. You might see people advertise 2 PPM uptime, however that is when factoring in global cooldown/instant attacks. If you use a 2.0 speed tank weapon it will average a 3.3% proc rate. The heal doesn't scale with +healing/SP. Average 1 proc in 60 seconds, 15 seconds is 25% uptime, averaging out to 50AP and isn't going to help on as manual pally abilities as +30 SP would. Lifestealing is around 6 PPM, and does scale with 43% of your +SP. With the same speed weapon from autoattacks you are looking at a 10% proc rate. Not sure which abilities proc it for pally, you'll get more procs depending on the instants that work with it, and each attack will share that 10% proc rate.

No Duel-Spec. Respec cost increase which each time you do it up to a cap of 50g which is a lot of money, considering farming at level 60, average player gets 30-45 gold per hour (others can get more). You can tank with your dps leveling spec with pally/druid/warrior in 5 mans. Stam gear helps where put it in the bank if you don't need it for questing. You can heal in any spec as well. Have a gear set with +int / spirit depending on your class (pally won't need as much spirit as druid / priest). After you are done with your 5 man, put it back in the bank.

Also guilds that had BWL on farm have many tanks that are 8/8 T2 and fury warriors got a lot of tank loot already too. It is good practice to have a good stable of players (More than 40) for raid night. Somebody might wanna take a night off, somebody might be BiS and only going to help guild and could sit for you to get the gear that is getting disenchanted. Other guilds were just starting MC. Other guilds didn't clear BWL yet. Other guilds were only big enough for 20 mans. Other guilds were just starting recruitment. Guilds joining again most likely don't have all their players coming back and need to fill spots as well. A good tank always shines.

Go human for +sword skill, +mace for naxx hemo spec. Will keep you from having to use a +weapon skill offhand that doesn't have any other good stats.

It has been listed in many threads there.

LOL at the person that said leveling to max takes 20-30 hours. Closer to 180-240 hours if you look at the normal 8-10 days played for people who are not going hardcore.

Not really. More so of bring consumables. Bring your Fire resist pots for this fight, free action potions for these mobs if you are a tank/melee, immolation potions, mana potions, nature resist potions for AQ. Also ZG last boss and Onxyia head you can turn in for a raid wide buff, when you have raids on farm, you may spend 20+ minutes before raid starts getting these buffs for your raid so you can speed clear things once your guild gets good at not dying to stuff. This is where guild competition comes into play, as www.realmplayers.com will record your raid information for others to look at if you have somebody in raid recording the information through addons. Some bosses make these world buffs a lot easier, and can get to be a pain in the butt if you are undergeared and don't have the buffs.

LBRS and UBRS can be 10 manned. LBRS quest runs have to be 5 manned.
