Don't go mining unless you want to level engineering. If you do that just save everything you mine until you have enough (check a guide) and then drop it for herbalism. Herbalism is hands down more profitable than mining. I dropped 300 mining on my rogue for (dis)enchanting. I made so little gold off it I decided I was better being able to DE my items. In comparison a Black Lotus can sell for 75g right now on Anathema (pre nost shutdown they were spiking well over 100g/lotus). The only somewhat viable way to make gold as a miner is to be a warrior/healer and team up with the other class and farm DM:E 3 bosses. With that farm you get to DE 3+ blue items per run and mine two of the Rich Thorium Veins which have a chance to drop those crystals. tl;dr take herbalism, be a mage, and make 500g+ on AV weekends

I'd do battlegrounds, especially on the weekends, to try get to rank 7 to buy the first pvp gear. While doing that you should run dungeons too e.g UBRS for the Dal rend swords.

It wasn't this bad on Nostalrius. Its really broken right now. Mages hiding down the ledge in AB by the blacksmith wrecking havoc on you. In my opinion, things like this, where they know they shouldn't be able to shoot through a hill, should be classified as exploiting and result in a ban. It's tough as a melee right now. Though at least they said they just fixed vanish.

works fine for me. I would remove it under the control panel and add your 2fa again.

There's 60s and tons of 50s on Elysium now too. You will get ganked by higher levels on any server at this stage (except Darrowshire PVE) so don't really factor that in. It mostly depends if you want to raid and if so if you'll be happy following a Blizzard progression from the beginning, or if you want to jump in and do AQ in a couple months.

Either Anathema or Elysium will be fine. I know of at least one big guild on each faction for Anathema. As truce said, Bunnings Warehouse, formerly On Ya Bike, have a huge amount of numbers and were in the past 8/8 BWL. Maybe they still are. On the horde side you have Oceanics Thirteen and it looks like they've established themselves on the Elysium server too.

Is Shub still around? Not sure what his main character was but he was in your guild, I think. He had some alts in another he ran.

Not on old Nost PvP. I had both

RIP You were always able to have both on Nostalrius, can't say for sure about old Elysium though. But yeah I doubt you'll get it back mate, reroll.

That's worrying. Out of town but haven't been able to login yet. By the good graces of Onyxia herself, I do hope I still have my Vis'kag. I got it about 10 days prior to announcement.

It's only low view when the server is full e.g today

live by the strawpoll, die by the strawpoll? Sounds like you pulling stats out of your попа.

How about you volunteer to log off to decrease lag for others. Then you can troll forums even more.

I remember them saying if you make your new account with a different email to what your old account used you'll be flagged for review. Maybe related? Not sure why reset pw wouldn't work...
