One thing I can say is that druid is the best class for avoiding any fights. Even when outnumbered, druid still has a good chance of getting out of a tight situation.

Crossfaction collaboration / appeal to moderators.
Oakenlix posted a topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
Referring to this thread: https://forum.elysium-project.org/topic/56656-cross-faction-collusion-allowed/ @Zazabi The GM in question is clearly clueless, organized crossfaction collaboration is against the rules. @Vartonis, I understand that as a new moderator you want to be as active as possible, but you still don't have to close every thread for no reason, mate. Please, don't go full nazi-mode, let people discuss what they wanna discuss unless its breaking the forum rules. -

We've seen some GMs do and say silly things, "GM is always right" principle simply doesn't work. -
Crossfaction collaboration / appeal to moderators.
Oakenlix replied to Oakenlix's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
It's just that the examples they give involve world bosses, but they never say it applies to world bosses only. To me the rules seem quite clear in that any organized x-faction collaboration is against the rules. -

PvP server adds a lot of randomness to levelling speed, competing there would make no sense. -
Josip Broz = Dobar Skroz ?
Oakenlix replied to Uncle Ganus of Clan McAnus's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
I don't understand anything. I don't like this. -
I'm just 27 atm. I expect it to get much easier after lvl 40, having a mount and ice barrier.
-
I'd say the best way is to mix it. Do quests, but while you're moving to get your quest objective, grind mobs on your way. However, with my frost mage alt I went full AoE grind mode since lvl 20 and doing ok so far.

All the patch changes are server-side. The only thing you might wanna do is delete the WDB folder to clear cache.

The respec cost change is bad and should be reverted
Oakenlix posted a topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
Hey. I'll make it short. Some classes specialize in something. Hybrid classes can do a bit of everything. Reducing the respec cost didn't just make the life equally easier for everyone, it also fucked up the class balance, because being able to change your specialization so easily undermines the value of hybridisation. As an example: easy respec from tanking spec to dps for a warrior undermines the value of feral druid who wouldn't need a respec for that in the first place. I didn't post it in suggestions subforum because I wanna see some discussion on this matter. So what do you guys think? -
Oh by the way, a great place to level a pet from 50 to 60 is north-west of Silithus, there are earth and wind elementals that drop valuable mats and aren't hard to kill.

Oakenlix replied to Oakenlix's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
You go from saying that respec cost change isn't the only problem of hybrids (which I agree with btw), to saying that reversing this change wouldn't make any difference. I don't quite see the logic behind that. It would make a difference, just not solve all the hybrid's problems (which I never claimed it to). -

Oakenlix replied to Oakenlix's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
It's impossible to come up with such an example, but not because you're right and I'm wrong. I'm not claiming this change straight up makes people not take druids/paladins/shamans to a group (although it very well may, in some cases), but you can't deny that making specialisation classes more flexible without any additional drawbacks undermines the value of hybrids, makes them less appealing. To what extent exactly - I don't know, and its quite irrelevant. The point is - respec cost is an integral part of class balance, you can't change the first without affecting the latter, and this is exactly what has been done. Yet your trolling skill level is so 2005'ish. -
@Easy Waters I found using Shred to be the most efficient way of killing mobs, if you have Improved Shred talent. Here's the video: https://youtu.be/CAmdtw1-tho Missed some autoattacks there because of facing the wrong way, but it still is the fastest way to kill mobs IMO, and if done right you won't even skip any autoattacks.

Jannus' Guide to... Alliance PVP Mentality
Oakenlix replied to Jannus's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
@Jannus oh yeah, so you think Horde players don't do the same in exact same proportion? -
Jannus' Guide to... Alliance PVP Mentality
Oakenlix replied to Jannus's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
Oh well... when I saw the title, I thought you'd be making fun of how Alliance players avoid world pvp or give up real quick in pug BGs and I would totally agree with you. Instead, you're implying that Ally gank low level players more than Horde does on average, which is really delusional and disappointing. I don't think you really believe that thousands of people on one faction tend to gank more than thousands on the other, I think you're just, well, bitching about getting ganked. Thread potential wasted, 3/10. -
Spectrum Popo Rolled Up
Oakenlix replied to thealbinopanda's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
Interesting. Not the first time this happens to someone. As for me, apparently my russian internet provider just doesn't really give a shit. -
The problem I have with this challenge is that the most effective way to complete it is also the most boring gameplay imaginable. But hey, to each his own, just not my thing I guess.
-
Well... I guess for some people it might make the game more interesting. But to me this challenge would mean taking zero risks - aka absolute shit gameplay.
-
I'd guess it has to be a video.

Is it me or does this sound really dirty?
Oakenlix replied to ScottK1994's topic in General Discussion & Suggestions
What do you mean dirty? That sounds beautiful. -
In my opinion druid tanks are better than warriors for dungeons, just because they do much more damage while still having survivability and awesome threat generation. And yes, with some builds you are able to either tank or heal in dungeons without respec, if you just have the gear sets. Raids are a different story though.

Warrior is hard to level, but it isn't nearly as hard as people claim it to be just because they can't play properly. You want to have a good big slow hard hitting weapon, and you also need an attack timer addon. Just charge the mob and hamstring it, then run away until your next swing is ready and engage again, etc until the mob is dead. This way, even though your weapon is slow, you end up dealing and recieving equal number of hits which very much favors you and helps to avoid unnessessary damage. There is inevitable group pvp while levelling, simply because there are so many players around. Most of the time Horde has bigger population than Alliance, so it makes a bit of imbalance, but nothing really critical. Yes, vanilla macros can still have a lot of functionality, here are some guides and references that I use for making my macros. https://forum.elysium-project.org/topic/29824-hunter-macros-tips-redux/ http://nirklars.wordpress.com/wow/vanilla-wow-macros/ http://www.wow-one.com/forum/topic/1433-macro-guide/ http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Useful_macros_(1.0) http://retro-wow.com/forum/printthread.php?tid=3132 There are PvE and PvP sets, but the difference is just stats and bonuses and how you obtain it. For example, warrior's tier sets are all fit for tanks, while PvP set has balanced stats for any spec in PvP. I can't tell how hard dungeons are in comparison to retail since I haven't played the latter in a long-ass time, but dungeons aren't hard if you're not very undergeared-underlevelled and if people just pay attention to what they're doing. Warrior is awesome because it's so good and needed as a tank, but it's also one of the best dps classes if you have the right gear.

I'm pretty sure this is against the rules, however I think you really need more evidence for GMs to take any action.

Excuse me? Why?
