Hero Classes - Let the fun beginFollow

Oh dear lord don't make 60-70 harder then 50-60. Fuck, make it easier.

Leveling isn't the fun part of this game. pvping and instancing is. I don't freaking want to have to hit my head against a wall to get to the fun content!

I've just gotten a 3rd level 60 and the idea of having to grind 10 more level is actually pissing me off to no end and is one of the thing I'm not looking forward in the expansion.

WoW's already proven that the 'tried and true' MMORPG method of 'make them work at boring task to get to the good parts' isn't necessary. That you actually sell more if you give people what they want. They'd have to be retarded to implement something like this!

What does it matter that some people can get to 60 and they suck? Don't pt with them. Get in a guild and put them on your ignore list.

So 70 will be the new 60. So fucking what.




What about talent specs?

Now you'll get people complaining the instance is impossible to do without Instant Arcane Explosion and Innervate and say they don't want to respec for it.

that's purely a matter of opinion.. since I don't really care for PVP'ing much at all. I have to be EXCEEDINGLY bored to PVP and even then if I do so at all it's likely with my hunter. I won't touch an instance with a PUG to save my soul, because of that my group of friends have to coordinate all our individual gaming schedules so I don't do much instance running at all... Even then it's allright but nothing to write home about. For me the fun *IS* in leveling... be it leveling my class or leveling my trade skills.

but that's just my opinion... but because of that I enjoy leveling various alts.. I'm the type of person who will over time have 5+ at level cap and working on more. I suspect when I have every class I enjoy at level cap and all tradeskills maxed and somewhat happy with their gear I'll be officially "done" but that's going to be a long time from now.

I didn't really think 50 to 60 was hard or even slow.. only reason it didn't happen faster is because of my alt-itis.
It's typical of these games to get slower due to higher level because of the sheer amount of XP needed. that's no biggie.. not like it'll be impossible to achieve or even really difficult.. it'll just take time, it's just not going to happen overnight for me as opposed to someone who playes as though there's no tomorrow.

I like how they say "There isn't anything on warriors because it hasn't been fleshed out yet."

More likely there isn't anything on warriors because the people who made it up couldn't think of anything!

Warriors already have several easy to distinguish roles. You either specialize in tanking or DPS or a bastardized combination of the two. I myself prefer dealing damage while being able to take a hit, so I decided to spec to arms/fury with heavy crit rate. In this configuration I can switch to one-hand/shield and go into defensive stance if needed.

What, really, would warrior hero classes be? Obviously they'd have a tank specialized one and a damage specialized one, but both of those are just natural progressions of the current warrior talent tree...

true true... a "genkai~esque" task to breech 60th level would be *VERY* annoying...

A soloable genkai would stop the idiots though. A genkai that you can't raid/group but have to do solo.

Gear would be the issue with that too. A Striker's Garb 60 would have an easier time then a Beaststalker's Garb 60.

At the rate the Petrified Leaf is dropping, I'll have full GS and some DS before I get to solo the demons. That will make a big difference.

The gear issue, plus the availablility of online guides (after it's been figured out), would let the idiots through, same way idiots got past 70 or rank 5 in FFXI. Can't stop the idiot train.



I think you should start an "exp for PvP kills" petition, Tyr. Of course, I won't sign it . . .

That quest pisses me off to no end.



"Hey, did you hear? There's a new epic Hunter weapon quest. It's supposed to be hard as hell, but IT'S SOLO! "


"Oh, wow, really? Don't tease me. Who gives it?"


"Well, first, you have to kill Majordomo in Molten Core . . . "

Yeah, the quest really doesn't make much sense in that regard.

But hey, hit up one of the top guilds on your server. I know there's a couple guilds on Illidan that will "sell" the leaf for 200g.

Basically what they do is fight their way thru the Core (having you wait outside, or go with them) and when it drops in Domo's chest, you zone in, they summon you and you get the Leaf.

Would have to do this for the Black Sinew from Onyxia also.

At least the Blue Sinew is farmable.

Ok... So what blizzard is gonna make you party ONE time, ONE BLOODY TIME to party to make an advancement in a game where there is no other need to party beside to get good items..i mean why complain..from what i read of this forum most of us here played FF11...so we all no it forced us to party after lvl 10...LVL $$$$ING 10.......SO WHAT!! OMG blizzard forces us one time to do this and some of you threaten of quitting ...is your gonna flip out at the drop of a dime this is when you do it?? man thazt is weak.... lets compare one time here now can we pls...FF11....FORCED to party/group at lvl 10.....WOW...lvl 60....for 1 quest.....hmmmmmmmmmmm.....


Do you not see the relivance to blizzard possible making that quest...??? it is all speculation but still to freak out at this is mine-bogiling(not sure if this is how its suppose to be spelled) but come on the majority of us players in my opion would like this kinda of challange...now im think 15 man raid...you know something P.u.G. able......nothing like MC..or something on that scale..would be stupid..now i never made it to high lvls in FF11....cause the raid were.....stupid....i mean to take 4 hours to get 15 ppl together to go and kill 3 monster at lvl 20...AKA the eco quest...some times long..and to get a 5 man in kazhan one day i spents 7 hours....thats beside the point..

My point is i would love to see this kinda of challenge and if you really look at the game ...blizzard has already done this many time..for isntance....epic mount.....epic items....specific trade skill....IE.. Armor smithing....weapon smithing..fishing.....so why not..with the (epic lvls)hero lvls...hmmm...so what..all you ppl that grind and solo have to get into a party for something once in your life...i mean if your gonna play a MMMORPG then why complain...i know some of you think that if blizz dose this one time your thinking that they might start doing it for everything...well sorry to tell you.....................THEY ALREADY HAVE!!!!

Love ya all :)

This reeks of satire...
Especially the Human Paladin comment.

I think this is fake.

I'm not convinced. That list contains numerous inbalances. Some just plain don't make any sense. Necromancer? From a mage? That's basically turning a mage into a warlock with no demon pet. Where's the logic in that? And the irreversability thing is that big givaway. MMORPG's are designed so that you can't really permanantly ***** your character up beyond hope. Pick the wrong hero class and nobody wants you and you're just SOL? I can't see that happening.

Shamibell says: Here, since they couldn't think up anything for warrior, allow me. Sentinel (protection), Blademaster (arms), Dervish (fury) Go me!

I doubt that hero classes will be irreversable.
Because first off, it takes quite awhile for most players to reach 60, then having a hero class that they do not enjoy playing, would be considered a waste of time to many, especially those who cry over things alot.

Blizzard would certainly have some negative feedback if that does happen.

On second thought though, to contradict with what i've just said. It would make much sense if hero classes were irreversable, problems may be created, yes, complaints, etc. But it would be the most logical and "fair" thing to do.
