Project Lore

I was known as the Alt Master in my old guild, having leveled pretty much every class to max level (yes i know how sad taht makes me, but i was unemployed). But i always keep going back to my Mage "main", i just really like insta-cast pyroblast :)

Yeah i had the same. i have 2 pally's a healer and a tank both 70 butt i enjoy my rogue alt a lot these days.

Starting to think if i should go on with my rogue when wotlk comes out.... mmmmm nah

1st!

omg :b

no your not

I am trying to still figure out what my alt will be. My mains a warrior so I want to find something thats a bit different then him. I am trying out a hunter and shaman right now.

Well,my class change was pretty big, I went from fire mage(prob the most squishy class/spec of all(w00t for -7k hp at 70) to a protection paladin.(12mobs solo?np) and I've loved playing on my paladin ever since, I even made it my main. To pass my time till expansion I'm prob going for a healer or melee class

I have played with every class, starting with a Hunter and moving to a Warrior. Lvled that one to 60 pre-BC and had her listed as my main. Then I started playing my Hunter again and I have realized that I am best suited to that class. They lvl fast, solo beautifully, and (if played right) can be damned rich and powerful in their mid-30s.

Hunters all the way.

I currently have ever race of Hunters on a seperate server from the one I play on, playing every talent tree ^_^

I know, I'm hopeless.

Well I have played several classes and found out that healer is the best for me. I love healing others in instance or raids. Only shitty about it is that when something goes wrong its always my fault. Just have to live with that.

I play only healers (my main's a priest), so with "recruit a multiboxer" I was able to level two more of different classes (shaman and druid) to 60 and a pally to 33. I might switch my shammy to my main in wrath cause she's tons of fun and has a cool accent, hehe.

I have tried other classes, got a mage to 13 :P but I really only enjoy healing.

When I pick an alt, it's almost always based on my personal playstyle first (love the PvP, love melee).

My main is a PvP/PvE Ret Pally because I used to raid Holy and it bored me to tears. Then I leveled a DW Enh Shaman because I love the class and alliance finally got them (plus my guild needed more healers so I respecced Resto at 70). Finally, I leveled a rogue because they are a totally fun class (everyone should have a rogue alt).

Sure, I've had tank alts and caster alts but I just don't find them as enjoyable to play so I end up bailing on them in their mid-50s.

My main is a Fury Warrior, so my alt will probably be a Rogue, not sure what spec. But I won't even begin working on the alt till either 70 (or 80 if that be the case) or I get bored at a higher level and want to build up some rest.

My main is a 70 mage and the like you bastosta i went through a couple of classes and realised i enjoyed the wrolock a lot, locks and mages are pretty similar i guess, also love my shadow priest and a play a rogue sometimes. But my mage will always be my number one :D

I leveled a rogue to 70 first. When I got to the point where I couldn't get any more gear I started on my warlock. I enjoy switching between caster and melee classes.

I am 69 and a half with my paladin and I have to say that leveling him was a lot less fun than the other two classes. I enjoy healing instances since its a nice change of pace from doing dps.

There's nothing like running into a mob of creatures and killing them all slowly, but I still prefer killing stuff in 2 to 3 hits. Also Prot paladins are horrible at killing casters.

my main for tbc was a hunter, then I lvled a fury warrior to 70 and now I am switch mains to my orc elemental shaman for lich king.

I made a warrior cuz thats the only class that killz me in pvp (im a warlock)

Totally off-topic...

Can you help me understand how a prot pally should be using seals and judgements when tanking? I just respecced from holy and honestly didn't even worry about using seals due to playstyle.

I try to judge different mobs in a pull with different seals in a misguided attempt to recooup mana and some hp while trying to generate threat as well - I end up just using Crusader over and over - I think something is wrong in my approach... all I end up doing typically is burn a lot of mana.

I think I saw that the seal/judgement system is going to change a lot in Wrath as well...

Any thoughts and/or words of advice?
Thanks

My first 70 was a paladin, i healed with him through SSC when i found out that i didn't like healing.. just wanted to raid. I leveled a druid to 66, she is 70 now, tbut gave up and leveled a mage. I love my mage, more than any other of my character(bonus is that she is a gnome :D). The thing i realized is that i can do pretty much anything my heart decires, tank, heal or dps. I am currently leveling a shadow priest, still a caster but dots and burst is different. The main thing about alts is that they are different, even if they do the same thing, they can be different in many ways. Sorry for the long post -_-.

My mage pulls out 1.2k dps on bosses in heroics with crappy gear.. thats another reason why i love her :P

My main is mage (best class i think and he is lvl 61) but the one thing i like about my class is that he crits for about 1.3k plus i have a lot of instant casts i do have my rogue alt but he bores me a lot what do u think i should have for an alt besides a tank or rogue and hunters r to hard for me
i talk to much x{

i started as Prot pally wich i really loved lvling to lvl 70 and aftertwards PvE'ing with, but i needed someone to make something out of the cloth i got, so i made a mage, wich i however havent lvled more than needed for tailoring to get high enough, and as i now got a lot of greens, i created a Hunter to DE everything, but the same hapened to her as to my mage.
"Deep Breath"
suppose i just cant live without being able to kill 4+ mobs at a time :D

to Roger:
the best tactic, if you have enough threath lead that is, is to judge wisdom on the maintarget, keeping Righteousnes up all the time, judging when it gets of CD, and continuing like this all the time.
and ofc your main prioryty is to have HS and concecration up all the time

Sorry for the long post

@Roger

I was considering writing a blog post about this, but I decided to scrap it considering how drastically things will be changing. I'll probably do something similar when I get the new mechanics figured out.

Anyways for the next 5 days, here is the quick and dirty version.

Seal of Crusader, Pull (Avenger's Shield), Judge Crusader, Seal of Righteousness, Judge Righteousness, then just reseal and Judge Righteousness every time the cool down comes up. Make sure you keep the seal up at all times.

Then just make sure you are doing your other tanking stuff, spamming Holy Shield and Consecrating when you have enough mana to burn.

If its a squishy mob that goes down fast skip Crusader and open with Righteousness, if your are in for a long fight and worried about going OOM open with Wisdom.

Whats with the idiots and the 1st posts? Give me a break...

My first lvl 70 was a horde shadow priest, went into The Eye with her. When I made a load of new friends who all had Ally mains I rolled a Feral Druid, now my Druid is lvl 70 too and I'm playing her more than I play my Spriest. The problem is I miss my Shadow Priest too much so am currently levelling an Ally one so I can play her with my friends. hehehe

My main is a hunter, and I've always been alured to the DPS class. So when I found out about the refer a friend thing going into action, me and some buddies refered each other and got working on some alts.

I had a hunter and a warlock already, so rather than make another DPS, I decided to make a tank and healer. My friend already had a healer, so he made a tank and a DPS. My third friend already had a tank, so he's going to make a healer and a DPS.

This way we can always raid with each other on whatever characters we need. Not only is this efficient, but it's a great way to explore the game and to understand the aspects of the other classes.

Awesome - would love to see a post after the patch goes live - really haven't found as good an explanation about seal rotation and multiple mobs but this was excellent advice from both Bastosa and Jondare!

THANKS!
