Another update from my wow progess atm. When in and 1 shotted Sorlaian & Void Reaver in the Eye last night (only 2nd time there for the guild!) and we thought we would give alar a quick go and got him down to 19% Phase 2 on the 1st try.

Got some new boots and wrist bringing my unbuffed health upto 15K (16.2 with kings)! woot :)

my health on my lock is nearly 8k unbuffed. guess thats good for a lvl 61?

I can hold my own against a lvl 70 until they self heal :-(

Leon

my 70 lock is only around 9K atm so yep, but then again my lock is very undergeared as I cant be arsed to put any effort on him.

Main reason Im happy with my health being that is up to a point as a tankadin you have to focus purely on avoidance (Dodge, Block and Parry) to try and become uncrushable against raid bosses. This means you total miss, dodge, block and parry have to be over 102.4%, once you have this you can start focusing on getting more stam to increase health pool :)

Not going too bad now. Im at Level 34, so should be on track for gettig to Level 42 in 11 days! Plus my mount :)

Are all the auction houses linked?? As in, if I searched in Stormwind, does it have the same stuff in it like Ironforge or Booty Bay etc??

I know Im miles away, but is there one particular two-handed axe etc which is THE BEST in the game bar none, or is there a couple up there at the top? Like I say I wouldnt be getting it for a long long time, just wondered really. If I took weaponsmithing up later on, could this make a better axe than youd find/get from a quest/buy etc?? Also, same above for armor really. :)

Cheers

Eggtastico

IF & SW are linked, Booty Bay & Tanaris arent - they are seperate & seperate from each other (I think).

Best this & that makes no difference as its all rock, paper, scissors.

Good point actually mate! The must be on certain axe for example though that does the most DPS etc?


Cheers for the info on the AH :)

Well it depends what your going for. Your main aim for your character maybe attack power, or defence, or somthing else.
I dont really use weapons except my Pet Minion. 3 DPS & I sit back, maybe with a health drain.

My main build is around Stamina ATM, its the only way I can last in outland atm as Im pond life to lvl 65+

chrisdicko

Im a warrior, and ultimately going for an Arms/Fury master rather than all out tanking defense. So obviously big damage hits is what im going for, so im just trying to find out what Axe to look out for/aim to make/which quests to do to get the best big hitter possible.

Cmon people! Check the links Ive already given.

Egg when you get into outland 95% of your gear will be replaced in the 1st load of quests :) the gear is just nuts compared to azeroth.

Chris dont stick to just axes mate, just get the highest DPS weapon regardless of type :)

Oh and once upon a time AHs were not linked, nor were the city chat channels... what dark angry days they were

Nope. I havent kept one piece of gear from outland yet.

maybe my gear I have is from outland, but nothing worth keeping in quests. - Even the battlefield rewards aint good enough for me to trade in just yet.

For me my pet does the work & I just need to survive, so its all Stamina for me. My lvl 60 chest armor has +61 stamina, my hat in the 50s, etc.

Stam wont help you much when you start instancing, nor will relying on your felguard. Youll be expected to have your imp out in most situations.

Start gathering spell damage gear now or youll regret it later.

I wont be doing instances until lvl 70 prob. so theres no point in me gathering it now. Im almost lvl 62 & i havent really played that much since turning to lvl 61

Oh & I dropped herb gathering & switched to tailoring.. so Im now tailor/leatherworker

Leon

Honestly stacking pure stam will do nothing for you, relying on your pet is all well and good but he will do alot more dmg if you start getting spell dmg stuff (spell dmg for you = attack power for him)

Plus you soon get to a point where you need to be doing alot more dmg to take stuff down, pet just wont cut it. Oh and as WG said if you do decide to jump into an instance you will be screwed over as they will want your IMP for the group buff and you wont be doing anywhere near the dmg as everyone else. IMO you should be doing instances whenever you can for nice experiance (both for leveling and getting to know how to play in a group), some of the best gear and certain faction reputation.

I find I level a lot quicker not wasting time on instances... I end up in a group full of kids & as soon as  a quest is done, someone bails out. Its fooking difficult to find a group to go right through with.

No quest takes longer than 15-20 mins. Kill 9 or 10 crits & turn in a phat reward & get at least 15k XP - I find its only worth doing them when theres a pile of quests that can also be turned in.
Last instance I done, I ended up with 50k XP in 2hours & 1 blue piece of junk
