Cheers again for the link WG. Just forgot which links are where :whoops:

Yeah Dooms I would get a mace or sword etc if they were better. Seems up to now though Im getting axes for some reason!

This might sound thick as well, but I picked up a sword, and comparing it to my axe, it seemed better. These are just random figures, but say my axe stats were 50-70 Damage, 2.80 Speed, 27 DPS. The the sword was 60-80 Damage, 3.30 Speed, but only say 24DPS...........which seemed weird as the the damage and speed was higher, but DPS was lower?!

QuoteThe general formula for your weapons DPS is:

((Min Weapon Damage + Max Weapon Damage) / 2) / Weapon Speed

Chris untill you get into all the theorycrafting focus on just the DPS value for now, later on when weapons also give extra stuff like more stats and lots of attack power then you have to decide which ones worth having (lower DPS with more stats or higher DPS with less)

Cheers again boys

Yeah, I had been focusing on DPS, and will do for the time being as its easier, lol.

The place im levelling at the moment is full of Horde.....keep getting raped all the time! Dont mind really, as its obviously part of the game. Just think its funny when a level 60 or something just keeps waiting for you even though Im only level 35.

Nearly mount time as well

Ah the joys of ganking... there are just some zones you want to avoid if you dont like being corpse camped (TM/Southshore and STV come to mind)

White Giant · January 24, 2008, 10:13:33 AM

Dont worry about getting ganked, when you hit 70 you can get your revenge

It can be very annoying though, if someone is camping your corpse just logoff for 5 minutes or so, they usually get bored.

Good to see Im not the only one

Looks like the url system is burgered and is trying to translate it rather than just use it as is.

chrisdicko · January 24, 2008, 17:07:25 PM

Yeah, im in Southshore now! Seems a regular occurance for horde to go in to the Camp in southshore and kill all the NPCs....which i think is quite funny really!

ANother question :whoops:

Im wanting to unlearn my talents so I can restructure them better. Not my Spells and Abilities, just Tallent Point, the ones you get everytime you level.

Is this the option at your class trainer? I just didnt want to experiment incase I lost my spells as well etc.

Cheers

Leon · January 24, 2008, 17:32:41 PM

Yep when you ask to change them you just loose your talents (and any skills those talents give)

Be warned... 1st respec 1g, next 2g i think it doubles for a while but then at 15g I think it starts jumping 5g each time to a total of 50g

Will start going down again after awhile but still can get pricey

Use a talent calcuator like the one on wowhead.com to play with builds before you spend the gold

White Giant · January 24, 2008, 20:57:04 PM

Also you will lose any skills you have learnt via talent points, so you will have to pay to learn them again if you choose that particular talent again.

chrisdicko · January 24, 2008, 22:14:11 PM

Cool, cheers.

At first when I started playing, I was putting the point anywhere, as to be honest I didnt have a clue what they were! But realise now where to put them, as ive played with one of the calculators!

Do you mean youd loose the skill as in......Battle Shout for example? If I unlearnt that tallent? So Id just have to retrain at the class trainer?
