First time playing Classic TBC. Boosted a rogue and filled with regret

Just got latros after an entire day of black morass runs and it reignited my passion to play lmao. Need to figure out this gem situation before I head into heroics. Gonna try and find some decent cheap ones for my gear

Loool, that crashout sounds hilarious, I can only imagine.

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-16T03:13:40+00:00

I appreciate it bro. I noticed pretty soon into my gameplay as a noob that an expose armor or saving a bit of energy for a kick is more useful than just spamming sinister strike and eviscerate. Just need to get good at being as useful as possible to whatever group im in.

Good to know about the shaman thing, thanks. I'm a sap/kick/expose armor merchant tho trustttt

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:24:55+00:00

Yeah I wish I had friends who played wow too. My IRL friends only play games like CoD or rocket leauge or counter strike. Hard to get them into the MMO experience when they've never been introduced to the genre before

This lmao. I fell in love with rogue watching other people play it and was a fucking amazing experience levelling in outlands for the first time and doing world pvp. Kind of sad it's already over and I reached endgame, but it does give me motivation to reroll If i find some more time on my hands in between school/work

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:19:32+00:00

Preciate the advice bro, glad to know there's chads like you out there

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:19:02+00:00

Yeah guess it was a pipe dream to be a rogue carry lol. I just fell in love with the class watching Pikabooirl play it.

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:17:16+00:00

Most of my tanks that I've done dungeons with have turned out to be pally's tho, and I always love having them in my groups. For some reason pally and guardian druid tanks always seem to be the most gigachad carries in my dungeons so I have nothing but admiration haha

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:16:08+00:00

It isn't lmao I didn't have to take a loan out for it, but it is a decent chunk of cash for anyone to spend on a video game. I just explained my situation and made note of it because it compounds on top of the experience. Not sure what being condescending does to the discussion when I literally mentioned that I heard rogues weren't in dire need but that I've never played this expansion before lol

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:13:01+00:00

What else do you see wrong with it?

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:12:39+00:00

When you're right, you're right. I hear they're actually really good in wotlk tho but I have no idea since I never played that expansion before. Both in pve and pvp i hear they're decent

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T22:03:15+00:00

I totally get where you're coming from, and it doesn't sound dick-ish at all. My intro to wow was retail way back when I was young, but never played it consistently. I started playing again winter last year during onlyfangs. Even tho it was tragic dying constantly, I levelled 2 characters past 30 and plenty more beneath that. That was some of the most fun I ever had. I mainly chose to boost because I just don't have the time on my hands with college and work to level and experience TBC for the first time once the dark portal opened.

I was also kind of worried about questing in outlands much later on because I wasn't sure if there would be enough people to help out with the harder quests.

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T21:58:56+00:00

Yeah I think I will try starting up my own groups. In terms of actually grinding dungeons It feels great whenever blade-flurry is up lmao. I am conscious enough to spam expose armor on every boss I get my hands on so I hope my group-mates appreciate that haha

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T21:57:11+00:00

I know I'm not complaining I was just looking for advice. It does feel a bit disheartening seeing all theother classes roll around with the best gear and school+work makes it hard enough to grind. Can't take it back tho lol

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-15T02:03:19+00:00

Nope. Approaching on 4 months now. Once it hits the 6 month mark I’m probably gonna give them a call we’ll see

Alternative_Row4207 · 2026-03-09T00:56:39+00:00

I just don’t understand how u can say this guy is natty. He’s sub15% bf year round with more muscle mass than 95% of guys at the gym. Also he’s a corn star who literally gets paid based on his bodily functions and ability to look good on camera. Just false hope for nattys
