I've probably posted about this before - but cut me some slack, I'm bored, working on a huge quote package :-P I'm going to play in MoP I decided (on a limited basis) - and I need to decide how I'm going to limit myself. I have an 84, 8 85's, and a 80. I'm really tempted to delete a bunch of them, just to keep myself from being a serious alt-aholic again. If I'm going to keep JUST 2 - and I'd like to have the option to tank, heal, dps, and do PvP - what would you guys think? Here's what I have: Warrior (85) - has 475 BS, 500 Inscription Death Knight (85) - 525 herb/alch Druid (85) - 525 mine/engineer/fish/cook Paladin (85) - 525 mine/JC/cook Hunter (85) - 525 LW/Skinning Shaman (85) - 525 LW/Skinning Priest (85) - 525 tailor/475 JC Rogue (85) - no professions Warlock (80) - no professions Mage (84) - 475 tailor/525 ench I'm torn - really torn. My current thought is to maintain the Mage (PvP, and for ench - this will be a large moneymaker for D/E I think at start of MoP) and Druid (all-around role abilities, plus maxed fishing and cooking and mining). What's your guy's opinions, if you're bored enough to care?

puppy join:2010-01-28	reply to clawfury If you only have a limited amount of time and don't plan to raid (same situation as I am), just play the druid. Multiple roles, and honestly you don't need to cover all the professions nowadays. Even profession gets 80 stat (well except your mining/engineering) and the crafted stuff is BOE. If you don't raid then you don't even need to min/max all that much. Just make sure you like the mechanism of each of the druid roles though. I personally don't like the boomkin or feral kitty dps, too complicated.

I'm one of those guys that played feral back when it was way more complicated, so I don't mind that I think for sure the druid is staying - but I'm tempted to drop engineering it's such a dud.

We ran two raids: a 25 man on Saturday (one morning - 3 hours), and a 10 man on Sunday (2-3 hours). Attendance was 75-90% for every person, mostly on the 90% side. We cleared everything in every tier, except Yogg on 25 (the 10 man did, with all achieves). That's my benchmark for "casual". Not raiding 4 nights a week, no screaming on vent, no sending screenshots of your UI and macros for "review" before you get accepted into the raiding group, etc. Solid progress with a decent group of low drama peeps, who generally play well, but aren't pros, and won't clear everything at server first levels.

DarkLogix Texan and Proud Premium join:2008-10-23 Baytown, TX kudos:3	said by Immer: Raiding in a casual atmosphere is awesome. Ya, not raiding because the guild wants to wait a month after launch stinks. I'm really considering a new guild, and with the rep buff it wouldn't be so bad, but as it is the current guild is willing to help me get the legendary staff though they're only doing 10man and for the first time I've only downed 3 FL bosses in a lockout (where as before I had atleast cleared 6 bosses each time I got into FL. I'd like a causal guild like claw said. 80% show up atleast (to make it a guild run) Not screaming in vent. (and people that atleast try to avoid vent feedback and overly loud voices) People who install DBM (because its standard and has good interactions with other DBM users Are willing to TRY a new boss on heroic and not just toss in the towel. but also not rage at someone for being just a little late or making a mistake on 1 pull. My current one is almost there, but has attendance issues for anything but DS and they don't plan to ever try raiding MOP till November. (which as I have so many vacation days I want to hit MoP raids on opening week.)

McBrain BRB Face Melting join:2010-05-06 Kalimdor kudos:2	reply to djlar Tailoring is a proc, so the math is wonky for it. Engineering tinkers will equal out to the same as every other profession (+320), if you use them on cooldown. I just have my glove tinker macro'd into my rotation, that way it never fails to go off. One thing to note is that Engineering tinkers cannot be used at the same time as on use trinkets. -- McBrain#1558 - DSLR resident face melter. “Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”

clawfury join:2012-02-14 Rochester, MI	reply to DarkLogix Will raiding be cross-server right away for MoP raids...? Or held back to keep up their holy cash cow of server x-fers?
