Yes another WoW post, I will save you the need to urge your peni towards the keyboard in a desperate attempt to point this out...

Pretty sweet RPG so far, only a couple of hours in. Haven't quite seen why so many people have been fapping like porn monkeys over it yet but have been told by plenty you are no-where near scratching the surface of it yet (which I can believe by the sheer size of it so far).

Chose to be a Dwarf in the end, a Warrior Dwraf with possibly the ugliest face ever. Kicks ass in battle, spent ages at the opening of Dragonmaw fighting the wolves and troggs to level up a bit. One thing that is decent is that everyone who I have come across so far has been pretty helpful and not even slightly c*ck faced.

Interface is sweet, the layout was easy enough to get to grips with after the initial "this is just one area, wtf?!". The environments make Lisa Riley's mu*f saddle looking like a toddler's paddling pool.

Controls are easy, the magic areas aren't even slightly geeky from what I have come across so far, just drag it onto the bar and click it when you need it. Haven't really bought much yet but that too seems simple enough to use and from what I gather it nails other MMORPG's for its less geeky approach. For a first time MMORPG'er' I have founs it fack easy to get into and nothing like what I expected (only in a good way though).

Visually it is sweet, the soundtrack is awesome, the presentation is spot on etc etc *fap fap*

Wish I didn't have work tomorrow but life's a b*tch!

All of your standard moves are ranged spells - well, apart from the basic attack move :D

You have instant casts, DOTs, standard charge/cast spells and can even resurrect, like a paladin (can't remember what level that feature is available though, but I've helped a few teammates out in the past - especially when the primary ressurector dies!).

The only thing to bear in mind, is that because they can be Warriors, Rogues etc, is that they're not as powerful as the classes they can emulate. I still find staying in NE form to be the most powerful, only changing forms when I fancy a change or need to let my Mana regenerate.

Apart from maybe warriors, rogues can dominate most classes at close range.

Ask WS -.-

I’m 5k to 42 here.

I took up enchanting again. Almost got red and blue glow (I have the spells just not the skill to use them yet)

I’m really looking forward to battle grounds.

Imagine 100 vs. 100, horde vs. alliance battles, with catapults, trebuchets, that one that is used to bash the doors down etc. Supposedly low levels can join in too and they can help by capturing graveyards making respawn for the other side longer. Oh and high level NPCS will fight along side us too =)

They better than Rogues for hand to hand/short range combat? Also do they have any long range capabilities?

Go for it - just don't dismiss it until you reach level ten, when you get the big bad bear mode.

Night Elves do have Druids - the only Alliance race to do so (Tauren for Horde).

There are two types of cat form - 'Cat Form', which looks like a Nightsabre, which has faster attacks and can move around while stealthed.

also

Travel Form, which looks like a cheetah - purely for quicker movement. I don't have it myself, so don't know if it has any attacks.
