Undertanker

@Shenna Just a heads up: On your main page: https://elysium-project.org/stress-testing You double pasted your post.

A PVP character can not be transferred to the PVE realm. And a PVE character can not be transferred to the PVP realm.

Prove them wrong bro. Seems like you had some bad luck with: Helm of Domination dropping for awhile there . In the end, you were getting pretty close to BiS.

On Nost they moved it as far back as to right before the Oceanic guilds started raiding.

Daily bump for awareness.

You may, "bump this".

Is the wait over yet?

Nost database will take precedence. Prob just log on when servers are up. More info Sunday.

I don't understand the economy fears. Things sell for more, yes, but that also means the things you sell will sell for more too. A level 35 can easily get 4 stacks of elemental earth while grinding, and boom there is all the gold you need for your mount + some. Also with war effort, even a level 1 herbalist can make decent money.

The game is called "World" of "War"craft. Got Battlegrounds of Warcraft Myself, I am only concerned with PVE, however I ONLY play on PVP servers. The feeling of adventure, danger, looking over your back, staying off the open roads when solo in contested areas, the companionship of another player of your faction (not just for killing a hard mob, or refusing to team up because you could solo it) just to stay alive at times. The random done man hunt for that rogue(s) who have been tanking others. Running towards that herb/node in the world and opposite faction is going for it, the fight for it (or in your case, sheep them /dance get your resources /spit and sheep again and go about your way). ^^^^ This makes the world feel alive and dangerous. Not stagnant NPCs and players who are yellow who you /wave to.

No, I do not. I saw this posted a long time ago and all credit due to Struckd. I saw this 2 years ago and refuse to let it die. Really good for people entering MC and those who want to learn what the mobs actually do.

Note some that have neither may not be looking forward to grinding MC/BWL for a year + though. We rerolled on K1 and had many people in guild already BiS before AQ dropped and our guild cleared AQ in September. "catch up" doesn't take as long as people think. If you are new to Vanilla in general though, and havn't been in the private server doing the same couple of raids for 1+ year already, I would then agree with this statement. I am not a fan of these threads as they have been everywhere on Nost/Elysium threads and usually turns into a couple of people pushing their agenda rather more than anything. I am excited regardless of who else does what. We all should be excited. Even in BiS I loved doing 5 mans. Did so many speed runs on Strat UD I got Exhaulted AD way back in October of last year. Still gonna do them to maybe one day see that mount drop Would fit my character name/lore pretty well. For the Alliance! For the Horde! For the community! For all the servers!

More information will be released Sunday during an AMA and a status update on their progress. Feel free to add to the other forum threads with any questions or concerns as we all wait. At least it is the weekend now, as alcohol should help the waiting process.

Seeing, "du du du dudu you think you do, but you don't" talk in this video pissed me off every time the camera went to him. The first half of the video reminds us why we play vanilla. The second half reminds us why we still play vanilla.

I wonder if the web server is not using NTP and causing it to not correct itself.

Thanks for the nod. I'll leave the DPS guides to the Fury Warriors to do. They'll make them soon enough.

It was a confirmed bug of not supposed to provide damage in cat/bear, but it did. It was confirmed on the bug-tracker, but not enforced under the "known bug abuse policy", therefore not subject to disciplinary action if you used this enchant/stone pairing. So for now, unless it was changed during the down time, it will provide a dps boost to a feral and you shouldn't be banned for it.

For your second question about leveling, see topic: https://elysium-project.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=21792 See my post a bit down on the thread, I provide talents broken down into stages rather than listing a level 60 talent tree as well as reasons these are chosen. Provide information on weapon availability once you hit 40 and go Arms for Mortal strike til 60. Only requires 2 respecs, 3 if you get Stoneslayer or Warmonger sword mid 40's. Horde: Orc for +5 Ax skill. coupled with the racial mentioned before. You'll have less loot competition if focusing on ax weapons as well compared to rogues and UD/Troll warriors who would also appease to swords. Troll Beserking is good but you will need to buy Edgemasters or atleast a Maledeth offhand sword and can time your cooldown on fights that have raid damage/cleaves so you pop it with lower HP for more attack speed. Not all fights have raid damage so you would be stuck with 10% at best on some fights. They make for good off tanks (if a fight requires a dps to tank) as well due to this racial to push out a lot of heroic strikes fast, especially if you have Eskander's right claw proccing + Flurry + Racial trait. Alliance: Human is the best for the +5 swords/Maces skill. Some of the most sought after weapons are Swords or Maces, and expect to pass Crul'Shrok to a NE/Gnome who made their mistake at level 1 and now has to use Edgemaster Handguards to compete for top dps. Depending on the server coding, +5 skill will help base hit (or chance to miss how ever you wanna look at it), and a small bit of crit, and what not. But that isn't the biggest thing. What is most important is that all your white hits on a boss have a 40% chance to be a glancing blow, and reducing the damage that white hit does by 30% if you have 300 weapon skill. Effectively causing you to average only 88% of your expected white hit damage after factoring in crit chances and what not. Each +weapon skill point will reduce the damage reduction penalty (does not reduce the chance of it being a glancing blow however). So your white hit damage goes up, and therefore your rage regeneration goes up as well = more DPS.

An issue you will find on a fresh server (if that is where you are going) those don't work as well as due to over population of zones. Should apply just fine for the existing server. Want a leveling guide for a new server? Learn the respawn locations of mobs, and make a mental note of when the mob from that spawn died. If others start watching you and getting the hang of it/standing on top of you, stand in an incorrect area to throw them off. Have your best mob tagging ability as your easiest spamming button to get to. After seeing 1 or 2 rotations of respawns, you should know where a healthy 10-13 mobs spawn and when and can mob tag them as they are appearing on the screen before others can. Once you get out of the newbie area, find a corner of the map that doesn't have a lot of traffic and grind. Grind. Oh, and grind. These leveling suggestion quest will have a huge amount of people following the same guide and overcrowd what would be effective causing it to waste your time.

I find the need to point out with the Kronos server, while Nost refugees where going there; the K1 population was insane even after the K-2 announcement. The 2 week DDOS killed it and turned what would have been a much larger influx of new players away and to look at new projects such as Play-tbc, LFG and simply wait out the Blizz standoff.

30 shield wall CD = broken? You have more tanks per raid now than then as well. You can still have SW for each fight if you wanted by rotating tanks if desired. By the time you are on the 5 th boss. First tanks SW would be up again. Engineering helps counter mages kiting. Classes have PVP weaknesses and counters, drawls and favorable matchup. It is how it was intended. Cries for "balance" broke this.

Bumping for awareness. Please bring this up during Sunday's AMA as I will not be able to attend it.

As a US player, I would be okay with this as well, as the player base of US Nost is already used to the time conversion.

This opens the door for possible character selling if you have two on one account, could "sell" ,one and keep the other. Not a bad idea you had, but the potential abuse, I would say prob not gonna happen.
