Alex - What's your WoW character?

[kidvicious]

I play World of Warcraft, which im sure a lot of other people here also do, and I'd like to know what kind of character Alex plays, and on what server. Anyone else who plays WoW should also post their chars.

I've got Garthos, a lvl 18 Dwarf Warrior on Scilla, and Auroris, a lvl 14 Human Mage on Blood Furnace.

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/ <--- so we can view each other's chars.

[nobodysleeps]

I haven't played WoW for a while..I did the 10 day trial of BC a couple weeks ago so I got updated on the Armory.

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Destromath&n=Yukihiro

I respecced Beastmastery when I did the trial.. but this is my main, Yukihiro on Destromath.

[cyborgzombiedog]

I play on a few different servers.

My main :)

My I'm REALLY BORED alt :(

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Staghelm&n=Noory

So what ARE your toons Alex??? :eek:

[falloutitchy]

Here's my main:

Though she's on hold at the moment while I level an alt with my friends and family.

My 60 warrior, de facto main, since I tank for my weekly group:
http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/#character-sheet.xml?r=Cenarion+Circle&n=Baelgoth

My 61 'lock, formerly my main:
http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/#character-sheet.xml?r=Cenarion+Circle&n=Peloquin

My 55 Hunter, actually my favorite char:
http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/#character-sheet.xml?r=Cenarion+Circle&n=Zarzul


I actually hardly play anymore, except for my weekly group. I have other alts, but they are not worth mentioning.

[nobodysleeps]

Hunters are the best

[poltah]

Hunters are the best

Wow, that post is even more useless than the one I'm going to post:

I used to play on a European server, but then I realized that WoW is a horrible game.

[r3v]

Wow, that post is even more useless than the one I'm going to post:

[comhcinc]

i got a question for the WoWer out there.

how do you come up with character names? i've roleplay for close to two decades now and i have never been able to come up with a good name. my two most prolific characters have been named Bob the Elf (from D&D and Rifts) and Jonathan Swift (from Vampire)

You can kind of just look at the genre, faction, race, etc and pick out sounds that fit. Grab a prefix and a suffix and smoosh 'em together.

For example, for my undead warrior... I wanted something evil sounding so I picked a name of a demon (Bael) and combined it with suffix that I though sounded old and vaguely gemanic. Baelgoth.

The sound "zul" is all over wow in reference to trolls, and so I just came up with a short prefix and voila: Zarzul, the troll. If I could, I'd spell it Zar'zul.

As for Peloquin...er, well.. I ripped that off from a book. :)

[poltah]

I don't have a problem with coming up with some pretty generic fantasy names, here's some I can come up with now:

Elves: Alukai, Salaziath, Undriath, Kalinathaz, Malkatar, Zalasira, Mishkaniel, Adruarai, Melriana, Tuznias, Alaksia, Tienria, Ferensir, K'alasza

Dwarves: Melek, Gurak, Mordin, Kaktarir, Durak, Shamtir, Kunak, Tarek, Traklinn, Dormar, Kurim, Amakar, Turam

Gnomes: Brizzlewik, Dankindur, Zippleark, Turinstar, Dumo, Dak, Zumsirarara, Akalatir, Duptiaka

Orks: Morka, Mukah, Daku, Gormsh, Grumk, Taruk, Dunkar, Grimscar, Shaklin, Gr'rurin, Kamp

All pretty generic, but works fine.

[comhcinc]

but can you pronouce all those names?

damnit, my suscription just ended, i would just get more time to play with you.....u should make a guild on that realm called like.......A Totally Rad Guild


Alex, would you be so kind and buy me a 60-Day game card? :)

[nobodysleeps]

I don't spend too much time thinking of a name, since the character will come to define itself with time and the name will already have its own meaning to the player and other players. So I look at indexes in the back of books for names sometimes and that's how I come up with names.

[comhcinc]

Wow is my crack!

crack is my crack. i find it to be more social.

I make my names that somehow reference to my character race or profession without trying to be too serious...

My undead rogue was Oozle , I thought it was clever

Imagine all the other things you could have been eating at that time! *giggles*
Luckily Bento is a cool name!

I've been playing for almost 10 months and I wanted to call my character Ayla, because I was reading "The clan of the cave bear" at that time... Ayla was taken, so I called her LittleAyla. I wish I could rename her now though.

my main - lvl 57 Troll Priestess

Yeah, I must have a food thing cause I was eating tater tots when I was making my very first character (tauren druid) and I called him Tatergiant... long deleted =(. Book way better than movie I take it?

[seNoj1]

Welcome to the forums lienie!

My names for my characters in anything are either Moch or Mochi for a girl. Thats from my email address I've used for awhile Momentum Change. But i don't play WoW any more. I'm waiting for Warhammer and Hellgate London!

I am THIS ONE:

I really don't know WTF I am doing still... but I do know that WoW has replaced reading before bed.

Does this mean I'm doomed?

Yes.

[falloutitchy]

At least a couple of the people here (including Alex) are in the same PvP battlegroup as I am (Stormstrike), so it's possible I'll see you guys on the killing fields!

That is, if you PvP at all...

At least it's fun being doomed.

Juber I made up when I was playing CS I think, don't really remember, and I went with Spike Spiegel (from Cowboy Bebop for any non-anime people here) just to be a giant idiot and so no one who seriously thought that name was a good idea would not be able to get it. I hate the name but I don't care, just a name, it's how you play that matters.

Also Alex, I hate to say it but you made it sound like you played a LOT of WoW, turns out you let me down :( Unless you have a real main that's 70 that you use to raid that you won't reveal because you don't want people bothering you while you raid or PvP. You don't have to tell us (me) the name but don't shatter my dream (dream of you being a real gamer, that's right, I'm challenging your man(gamer)hood)

So wow might be a game im intrested in but heres the thing. A) i have no idea how to play. B) What version to play and C) i played a 14 day trial and it didnt really appeal to me in some sense. It was hard to find those i had found quests from but i really did like playing it. I guess im asking is the game worth it??

[ehelms]

I began playing on an old roommate's account, but then he moved out. I just got the game again so I'm nothing that impressive yet, but here are my current characters:

aaaaaaand i'm going to play right now.

[MaxTheSilent]

I've been considering joining WOW for a while. Thing is, I've never played online anything before, let alone a sprawling, dense MMO.

Should I give it a pass, or is it a game a shameless n00b like me can pick up?

Also, I'm not sure how well my comp will be able to run it. My specs are:

Athlon AMD64 Dual Core 3800 - 1.99 GHZ
1.5 GIG RAM

What kind of video card should I get? I'm just running my motherboard's native card.

Thanks.

[filch]

The WoW engine is very forgiving. You can run it perfectly fine on your system.
As far as the video card, find out what your budget is, then check Tom's Hardware. They've gone through the trouble of finding the best performing cards per price point. It's also sorted by AGP or PCIe.

http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/07/03/the_best_gaming_video_cards_for_the_money/index.html

Use the table of contents drop down at the bottom to skip to AGP or PCIe.

You should be fine on WoW, even having never played an online game before. You can totally solo most of the game if you like, and you'll pick up on the social aspects quite easily I think.

[Peety]

Looks like Alex's char has been given quite a bit of gold seeing its his first char and hes holy spec pally (no gold grinding ability)

I've played WoW since retail. I actually took a 3 month break, but I'm bac k into it as a casual.

Level 70 Tauren Druid - Used to run flags for HWL groups in the BG's but now semi retired, only used for 2 boxing instances for my other characters. Won't take it serious until blizzard sorts out the malee range issues with druids in bear/cat form. Sux having to run in front of the person you're attacking just to make a hit count. Would be nice if there was an Oceanic based realm.

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Uther&n=Krasht

Level 67 Human Warrior - My first WoW character, which was retired for a while, until TBC came out. Slowly leveling when rested get's the 1.5 levels.

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Uther&n=Krashhed

Level 63 Tauren Shaman - My current main, which I BG with a lot. Slowly leveling it using the rested ;) Probably the most enjoyable class I've played. Maybe because they're overpowered and so effective against players with way more levels:)

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Uther&n=Krashtoo

Level 28 Gnome Warlock - Was inactive for quite a qhile, now playing it when I'm bored.

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Uther&n=Krashg

Level 26 Undead Priest, currently for my guilds 40-49 BG group. Priests are just so much fun, and the survivability in the BG's is awesome so far.

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Uther&n=Krashnoheals

Level 23 Blood Elf Paladin, currently leveling for the 40-49 bracket as well. Don't know if it'll last. Not that fun to play to be honest. Though, I did get consecration and did spec protection and have started doing the consecration mass agro leveling with my druid, not grouped, as a heal bot. Taking down 10+ mobs of similar level at the same time (Consecration+retribution aura+thorns) is actually pretty effective and fun sometimes.

http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Uther&n=Krashpally

Also have a level 19 Undead Rogue (krashedd), level 19 Undead Mage (Edkiller), level 23 orc Hunter (Krashh), level 25 Tauren Warrior (krashed).

[geekluv]

Hehe, reading these posts and some of it sounds so familiar. I tried to stay away from WoW for a long time, fearing it would consume me. I failed, it did, and here we are.

After trying nearly every race/class combo, both factions, on several servers, I landed on Shadow Council which is now my "home".
