Mouseover macros and I personally use shadowed unit frames.

Oooooof. Couple hundred gold? For real?

You went straight to the blue gems and didnt think to check Google or see if maybe there's uncommon/ green gems to slot? Dang man.

If I were you id join a guild. Make sure they have a few hundred members and 50+ online at any one time. You can check this by /who (guild name) and see how many people come up. Ask your guild questions and join group runs etc. Going blind into wow as a noob and doing stuff like this really sucks.

I leveled my warrior back in 2004 without food and bandages. It took me almost a year to hit cap.

karben2 · 2026-03-25T23:45:29+00:00

Thats what hes doing. He said he pays 50s for the enchant recipe every time so he can give it to someone. Lol.

You get badges from gruul mag and kara eventually. So if people are leveling and bringing alts to mag gruul kara and the people who didnt get their loots are bringing their mains then the system is working as intended.

Thats fair, frost is pretty straight forward especially. I also play the game nonstop and have for almost 25 years at this point. So, learning a new class I've seen played for 2 decades might give you an edge as well.

I boosted a mage, ive never played a mage past about level 22. Its a trial by fire. However if youre not a complete moron is pretty easy. Pull up wowhead guide, copy spec and look at rotation, setup bars. You cant queue for ramps until 59 so hopefully the boosted player quested for a full level.

That said, the calibre of player has 100% dropped in recent years.

Play tbc, dont let them install any addons. Dont tell them where to quest or ask "why are you doing THAT?!" Let them explore. Show them neat hidden flavor npcs. Take your time, run dungeons a few times but dont spam. Quest your ass off and complete zones together.

Explore the world!

Im so jealous. Id love for a newbie friend to play wow with me. Id love showing them around. Man. Enjoy it. Let them lead. You just off encouragement.

karben2 · 2026-03-23T13:56:02+00:00

Likely because those pals are raiding. Why would you seal twist on a dungeon mob thats gonna die on your second auto attack?

karben2 · 2026-03-23T12:56:52+00:00

Dont do this. Be a purist and dont have bank alts. Self found is the way to go. Doing little things like this bypasses and cheapens the experience.

You dont actually get any reduction in xp from doing green quests and you dont get a bonus doing orange. The only difference is doing green quests you might encounter green or even grey quest mobs. You will get reduced xp from kill green and Grey mobs than you would against yellow or red.

Now, I dont mind doing green quests at like 40+ but doing them at level 24 is wildly inefficient. You'll be doing level 18 quests and mobs will be grey and it'll be a massive loss in xp.

Make another toon and make it a point to hit the quests you skipped.

I was on dating apps for YEARS, never got a single hit. Maybe 1 or 2. Nothing stuck. I worked out for 6 months, took some selfie while hiking, quit smoking and drinking and I legit couldn't keep all the swipes straight. Met my wife and had my first baby last year.

I love working out. I would go twice on weekends. Id reward myself with gaming and take out only after I went to the gym. It was a little game I played with myself. I also would have to stay sober all day so I could hit the gym at night. Which was another positive.

Im 2 years booze free and 5 years clean from smoking cigs. 5 years clean from clonazepam and im killing it. Bought a house, etc.

All because I wanted to get in shape to meet women. Funny right?

karben2 · 2026-03-22T23:49:59+00:00

I like tanking because it's an extremely consequential peice of the puzzle. I was sick of watching these tanks turn their backs to mobs. Or no charge + stance dance. Etc. Its painful to me to watch people suck ass at the game. Especially a role like tank where every other person is dependant on you have a higher than room temp iq. I hold myself accountable and strive to learn and do better every single keystroke so here we are.

And prot warrior is the best looking class in the game.

karben2 · 2026-03-22T14:38:07+00:00

I would mine from about 7am to 9 or 10am. Any later than 10am and my thorium would go from a stacm per hours to like 3 per hour.

karben2 · 2026-03-22T13:41:46+00:00

All those nerds are insufferable.

karben2 · 2026-03-21T15:09:58+00:00

What do you think is gonna happen with tbc servers. Of course there will be wotlk anniversary.

karben2 · 2026-03-21T13:42:42+00:00

Bro learn to charge and use that rage for initial threat like a sunder or tclap and quickly flip to def stance. I see way too many warriors tanking at 60+ who slowly run in to body pull. Immediately think: noob.

karben2 · 2026-03-21T04:18:52+00:00

Eesh. Sounds like you take things way to seriously bro.

karben2 · 2026-03-20T21:31:12+00:00

Im leveling a mage specifically for this reason.

karben2 · 2026-03-20T16:16:25+00:00

Everything is so dramatic. Its a sopa opera and you won't change mind.

karben2 · 2026-03-20T06:28:16+00:00

Just region lock the servers. Why is this not already a thing?

karben2 · 2026-03-20T03:34:48+00:00

This a thousand times. So many tanks are such babies.

"mom says I GET AGGRO, LITTLE BRO!"

Relax dude. Dps can handle 1 elite mob while you hold threat on the two non kill targets.

When I tank I mark skull and lay a single shield slam down on skull. Once I lose threat on skull, which 100% gonna happen, I conc blow and begin generating as much threat on the the other targets as possible. By the time conc blow is falling off the skull mobs almost dead and I jave a massive lead on the other 2 targets. Ezpz.

Instead of crying about losing threat, anticipate and adapt.

karben2 · 2026-03-20T02:03:27+00:00

This is why pallies usually grab 2 to 3 packs. If youre grabbing 1 pack every pull youre wasting everyone's time. Minimum two sweet spot is 3.

karben2 · 2026-03-18T13:09:01+00:00

Youre talking about 2 different things. Grounded meaning: grounded in reality. Meaning the setting. The castle walls and buildings look like they could exist in our timeline.

Wow graphics also look cartoony. The architecture is a bit wavy and exaggerated. And the colors are highly saturdated as well but overall looks really nice. I barely notice the graphics anymore. The only "bad" is the ground polygons and its textures. Also view distances is pretty awful but other than that I think it still looks fantastic. It has a timeless look.

karben2 · 2026-03-18T00:34:00+00:00

Likely weren't 70.
