    So, took a couple days off and managed to get some good solid time with the game. My main is a Prot Warrior with mostly 397+ gear. I started questing as prot, but found my damage to be, how do we say it, lacking. Switched to arms and things got a ton easier. Some observations from an...

    **OFFICIAL** Star Wars: The Old Republic Thread

    At one point yesterday, there was 760 Sith to 58 Republic in Ilum at one time. Got so bad that a second "instance" of Ilum spawned.. which a couple of my guildies took advantage of to get their Daily done. And to get it done, they had to hunt down "armor" pieces that randomly spawned in the...

    **OFFICIAL** Star Wars: The Old Republic Thread

    The forums are exploding with QQ threads about Ilum. Can't say I didn't see this coming. My server is horribly imbalanced in favor of the Sith, so I'm pretty sure they're all camped out at the Republic base farming valor while I'm at work. Any poor Republic soul so accidently flies to that...

    **OFFICIAL** Star Wars: The Old Republic Thread

    If you don't go to the AT Guild Server, I would highly advise you to research the potential servers you would like to roll on. Like WoW, there seems to be a huge population difference between Republic and Empire on most servers. It seems to be more of an issue with PVP servers (more Sith) then...

    OK, looking for a little advice and what to do next. I got my Jedi Sent. to 50 on Friday, and now I'm not sure what I should do to advance my toon. My server, Anchorhead, is dominated by the Imps. So, grinding PVP has been more then a chore. I spent most of the weekend sucking loss after...

    So.. I participated in the previous weekends beta. I've heard that if you were a part of that weekend, that you would be brought back in for the next one. I haven't gotten any communication stating this fact?? Should I have grabbed one of those free keys they released or just wait and see what...

    It did suck.. but man.. those were the days. You really did put the work and effort into it.. and it felt good getting boss kills. It just doesn't have the same feeling nowadays.

    I like how Bliz thought ahead on how the new quests would be affected by Unbalanced PVP Servers. Tried doing the Thrall Questline last night. There are quests (and some of the Hyjal daily quests have this too), where you have to kill mobs to "fill a meter". Well, if you die, the meter gets...

    Valor will be converted to JP and added to your current JP total. Anything over 4000 JP will be converted to gold (I forget the ratio). So, if you're close to the cap, spend some points before tomorrow unless you want the gold. Some of my guildies are capping JP and Honor... because you can...

    If you're getting really bad lag, it's will most likely be an add-on that uses the Combat Log. Blizzard changed something with the combat log this patch that totally fucked a ton of addons. Personally, I've had to modify or update Recount, Miks Scrolling Battle Text, X-Perl, Omen etc. Make...

    Looking for some advice on Nef 25m. We're consistantly getting to Phase 3. Our tank has Nef in the middle, and we kite the adds around the outside (rotating Nef as needed when we get near his head). The issue is the adds themselves. We have a Druid tank kiting them around. For the most...

    Ventured into Bastion of Twilight last night on 10 man. Group was composed mostly of folks in full Heroic Blues (and random epics from rep ect). Hylfius Wyrmbreaker (sic) just pushed our poo in. It felt like there was just too much damage going on and not enough healing/DPS to go around. We...

    Been off for a few weeks due to the birth of my daughter, and managed to sneak in some extra time off for Cata. So far it's been an experience. My server is heavily Horde dominated and the amount of camping and ganking at quest hubs was beyond anything I saw in TBC and WotLK. I would say it...

    I think you just might need some more practice with the new resource mechanic. My hunter buddy was still doing damn decent damage in PvE (as Marks). His biggest complaint was PvP viability, but IMO PVP right now is a crapshoot for every class. Check out Hunters Union and even Elitiest...

    Warriors are fucked. I've been PVPing since we stopped raiding.. and planned to do so until Cata. Went into some BG's last night, and got utterly destroyed by Range/Casters classes. Bladestorm hits like a wet noodle now. I sat on a shadow priest last night with BS popped, and he just sat...

    I think he means that at last years Blizzcon, they stated that they would not "charge" players to fly in the old world, which they've obviously gone back on now.

    My AOE consists of TC, Shockwave, Cleaving mixed with some tab targetting. The other tank is usually a Druid or Pally, so I really can't compete with them threatwise. I usually make sure I got a couple mobs on me and make those stick. If it's a situation where I'm the only tank, I usually...

    S&B SS, Revenge, SS, Devistate. Weaving HS in there to burn off rage. Revenge hits hard, but SS has a higher threat modifier. Unless I'm tanking trash, I can't be pulled off of, even when competing with other tanking classes.

    Anyone on beta annoyed with the "buffed" mobs? I've been toying around in Uldum, and I gotta tell you I feel like I'm fighting Elites sometimes. Fighting one mob usually knocks me down to about 50% health, and if I accidently pull 2, there's a good chance I'll get owned. I think the...

    ^ this There is a ton of work that still needs to be done with Beta. Hell, they haven't even released the last couple zones yet for testing, and the level cap is still 83. Talents still feel wonky as well. Now, Bliz typically releases beta patches that are a few iterations behind what...

    Although I am sure they aren't done itemizing shiet, I can give you a general idea of what I replaced in beta. My warrior is in full 264+ gear. Through Vash'ir and Hyjal, I didn't exchange one piece of gear for a green. I did not finish those two zones yet because of bugs, so there might be...

    So.. anyone get into the beta?? A buddy of mine got me a key last night.. been downloading/installing the client and patches since then. Kind of torn between what I wanna mess with first.. new races or checking out the new zones on my 80s.

    Actually, I'm kind of at a loss on why you're putting up with it anyhow? You don't see to have any personal attachments to this guild.. so what's keeping you there? I know there's plenty of guilds out there looking for good players to fill their rosters (most of em 11/12 HM.. looking for more...

    After calling yet ANOTHER raid due to attendance last night, I have to say that I'm more for the changes then against them. I'm so sick of trying to get 25 people together and then wasting everyones time when we're missing 6-7 people on raid nights. It's not fair to those folks who take time...

    What we typically do is split up the melee between two sides. We have a third tank deal with zombies (and a range is assigned to killing them). If one side seems to being getting hit REALLY hard (as the RNG in this fight can be fucking stupid at times), a couple melee jump over and help...
