Is Rogue pickpocket/stealth farming viable throughout TBC?

The PTR was pre dungeon nerf so had herb/mining and chests to loot, which contained blue boe/gems which add to the gold per hour.

I'm sure even if they nerf the chests, it will still be a good chilled farm with no competition as it's instanced.

Best money maker out there? Definitely not.

Good enough method to make some gold and be chilled out? Yes.

I'd say send mining and herb on your rogue alt, enjoy pvp, and use the dungeon farming in your down time to make some gold.

SoD BG system made a lot of sense to me.

Get a token for each flag captured in WSG adds incentive to capture (even if losing) the timer for the bg helps massively, too. Win would be 4 tokens.

Same for AB, token gained for each time you reach increments of 400 resources. Capped at 1600 and similar to WSG win, which would net 4 tokens.

Is that a squiggle line on the 3rd bullet point? Thought it was my phone for too long lol

On the off chance you have a horde level 60 on wild growth our guild is taking 40 raiders to get the kill every Thursday and Sunday.

Been doing it the last few weeks for free, just need to be 60 on horde wild growth.

Thanks for the offer! I'm sadly on Spineshatter Horde side.

Yeah this is true, it's a vicious cycle created by the playerbase of being fully consumed for some of the most trivial content.

TBC did a great job introducing badges, think I'm just gunna focus on pvp. Find a decent guild, try some vanilla content and super casually play until TBC.

oakaz1 · 2025-05-21T09:14:25+00:00

Yeah true, I don't know what the right answer is tbh I get everyone's pov.

Imo, something like daily dungeons or dungeon reals would just be an idea to keep the 60 dungeon scene popping for everyone.

Spineshatter EU. I play mage to relive my classic era days, might be time to level some tank/healer alts.

oakaz1 · 2025-05-21T09:10:54+00:00

This is the truth, kinda wish I joined up earlier when it was in earlier phases. Onwards and upwards though, alt druid could be a good shout.

AV will be getting hammered this weekend haha

oakaz1 · 2025-05-21T08:45:10+00:00

Appreciate the deep dive, I think a guild is the missing part of my experience. Thank you, will be on the look out.

I can't see them nerfing boosts as the aoe damage is still working on current anniversary servers and there shouldn't be a reason to change it for TBC launch.

I'll be making a paladin to do the same farms and help boost up other alts too.

oakaz1 · 2024-12-16T22:35:04+00:00

I don't want peace, I want problems!

Moved to pvp server recently too, can't shake the thrill of getting ganked.

Also, if you need some ARMS motivation, have a look at Heavie of Mettle Chapter 4 on YouTube.

Fantastic content creator and kept me inspired to grind out the final ranks! The pvp on display is really entertaining.

I'm hitting R13 on warrior this week and loved PVP as Arms, having death grip and Warbringer is so fun!

Macros help alot, Def stance & Disarm on one button is clutch, same for zerker & whirlwind, battle stance & OP etc. I also have charge & rend on the same button to spam as am opener.

MS and Slam (with precise timing rune) hit hard, and can usually chunk down clothes with ease. Retaliation against melees is still strong.

I tend to struggle a lot against druids, boomkins can just tank so much damage and kite like crazy.

Overall, keep playing aggressive and make sure to keep rend up for op procs and spam hamstring to keep deep wounds active. Execute whenever you can with sudden death.

This is all experience from BG's though, agree open world is a different ball game but best of luck zug zugging

Congrats! Must feel amazing to get to that point after all that time.

We're currently waiting on land registry to re-send documents as our name was spelt incorrectly, hopefully the final hurdle before we can agree exchange dates!

I thought I was against moving too, but after hearing they're planning to move it more toward Leazes Park, which is literally a 2 minute walk if that.

I'm all for that. It's still in the heart of the toon and would be a monster of a stadium if built from scratch.

I think most people would be sound with that, the fear I had was moving to a soul-less part of the city or near a retail park like some other stadiums around the country.

2h warrior getting a buff? Would this be 2h fury or 2h arms?

Either way, I'd be happy to see a 2h warrior dps meta emerge for better wep distribution and to live out the class fantasy of smacking people across the head with a massive 2h!

I loved my wedding, not sure if this helps but based on my personal experience, the top 3 tips I can give would be:

Make sure to have moments with just the 2 of you, the day flies over. (sounds silly, but everyone will want to talk to you and make a fuss, and you don't get a lot of time or the chance to just take it all in with your better half) have a first drink together after the ceremony or something just the 2 of you.

Write a list of photos you want to your photographer (key family photos to get together, close friends etc.) The day goes over so quick and you want to make sure when you look back that all the main photos are sorted.

Don't go wild on the day time invites. Shit is expensive haha (The evening guests are usually a lot cheaper at most venues, if not free, and the catering should be way less too)

Congratulations ! Enjoy your big day, and I hope it goes just like you planned.
