mettachain posted : now that the wife and i both have different smart phones, i was thinking about switching my authenticator to my phone.

question regarding this though. when i use the mobile armory (AH, guild chat, armory, etc.) on the phone and i have to log in, will the authenticator on the phone automatically know to generate a number or would i have to go to the home screen and pull up the authenticator app on the phone then switch back to the armory app?

Mr Fel posted : I've been enjoying the new quests. Was going to tackle whatever questline Anduin Wrynn is in on Kun Lai Summit today, but I forgot to pack my authenticator with laptop before I left the state yesterday :huh: I don't think the people at home will understand what an "authenticator key fob looking thing" looks like.

My kids seem to be spending a lot of time training and battling their pets. They seem to enjoy that more then anything else.

I finally got around to looking for the pet trainer last night. I was amazed at how much I liked it. I can see spending a lot of time on it, if for no other reason than to "collect them all". It is interesting that it is at least faction side based, ie you only have to train on it once and the training that you do is for all your toons. I am basing this on my Alliance set on Lothar and have not checked different servers.

Kearnstd posted : once you pick your faction you are that faction, Meaning another panda who is opposite cannot understand you any longer and if its in a BG they are a valid target and will attack you.. Someone in my guild even commented on the fact that once you pick a faction you somehow forget how to understand other pandas.

as far as I know WoW cannot tell race and class from faction, Meaning once something or someone is Horde or Alliance it is that faction. Pretty much in theory if I understand how the game works behind the scenes, If you where to and able to hack the server and set a human character as "Horde" they could walk right into Org and the game would see them no differently than an Orc.

Snakeoil posted : I created a panda and saw the story line from a different view.

$fontbg
I am at the point where I have to decide to go alliance or horde. I have a few questions about that.
Will I be neutral with the opposite faction if I were to met them on the road?
How different are the horde quests from Alliance? I've never played a horde toon before, so this might be my chance. Reason I ask about the neutral thing is because I think my kids will go alliance. So I'm curious as to if we'd be able to quest and such.

The starter story line was interesting.

My kids seem to be spending a lot of time training and battling their pets. They seem to enjoy that more then anything else.

Shift + M will remove the "fog of war?" nice did not know that.

Can I keep a small version of the entire zone map on my screen up all the time like Carbonite?

also, is there a way to have the whole zone map up at all times that shows those blue areas by chance?

The sniper quest was my favorite, too.

I hated it the first time through because I didn't read the quest that I "HAD" to go explore the shrines. I spent about five minutes sniping tigers before I asked how long it lasted. The next couple of times through it was much better.

I've got my Alliance Panda Monk started, leveled enough to select side, get guilded, and mail my BOA gear. Think I'm going to hop on, use rested, and then switch toons, to even out her leveling. I forgot how painful walking was.

I've got three Alliance to 85.5 and have logged into my top 20 toons to get their rested timers started. Going to have to learn all of the classes again.

I was on vacation last week and my father-in-law is sleeping in the room with my computer and he's a late riser. Really cutting into the WoW time. He's headed home tomorrow, so the weekend should see some quality play time.

Did this chain event this morning with a couple of guildies and it was funny reading their reactions to the pet racoon bit. Not as far as i would like through the quests, but I am impressed with the quests and the layout of the area's so far.

Immer posted : If you canceled the cinematics and didn't read the quest chains, then I'm not sure why you clicked on a "Lore" thread, lol.

Alliance: Solid introduction to conflict on Pandaria and the need to rush to the isle to secure Anduin. I haven't finished Tides of War, but I still feel a connection to this angle from recently reading Wolfheart. I mentioned it in the other quest, but the SI:7 quest hub in Pearlfin Village is my current favorite, particularly the sniper event.

What are your thoughts of the Alliance or Horde storylines?
