Title: Wrath of the Lich King
Post by: scooterpickleman on February 03, 2009, 07:09:54 PM
Hi. A friend and I who used to play WoW quite a bit. we were both endgame and everything in Burning Crusade are considering coming back for Wrath. Towards the end of our time in WoW though BC had become soooo boring and we could barely stand it. My question is is it worth it to come back for Wrath? Is it a lot different than BC, what is different exactly? Thanks in advance.

I know- I become boring after a while. Sorry about that.

It is getting a little boring after the high of "Midnight Madness" but if you are wanting to get back into it, give it a shot.  Even if you get bored with it, you could always sell :)

True my friend and I have pretty decided to give it a shot. The death knight seems pretty appealing to me and leveling up and the whoel social aspect is what I miss most from the game so were going to jump back in and level a couple death knights together. I think I'm going to be a gnome I am giddy with excitement lol.

I have had a blast leveling to 80, but then the grind of running the same instances over and over gets a bit old. Guess, it is time to make a new character or get back into the pvp side of things.

Hmm yeah. We have both bought the game now and I must say I've barely touched it since I've had it. I have a dk now leveled it to i think 59 lol and haven't even touched my main character still level 70. My friend on the other hand though has been playing an insane amount of time. I really just do not have that kind of time. I mean it literally took me 2 years to get to level 70, but so far the little I have seen of the game I really like it.

well to be honest Blizz has made WoW a very casual game, even if you were only to play it an hour at a time it would still take less than a month to level a lvl 70 to 80 its much more laid back than it was in Pre- TBC and TBC itself.
but i think this has lost its appeal

I currently have WoTLK...but the only reason I came back was for the lvl 80 and the Death Knights.

TBC was the better expansion, and though the new instances are fun, they do get boring.

DK's are a fun toon to play, VERY TOUGH TANKS with the plate gear, and the quests actually give you nice blue gear rewards that are far better than what you could buy in the auction house etc.

My choice for my DK was a female Night Elf... she kicks serious *censored* and can shadowmeld if the mob is too much for her as part of her racial inherritance of being a night elf.

Also the AOE ( Area of Effect ) casts that do not require Mana! Is awesome, you can both be in the mob pit hacking and slashing axeing them down and cast DOT ( Damage over Time) AOE's to bring death to all enemies around you.

Still havent found the weakness to the DK, but to have a balance in the game there has to be some weakness, whether its FEAR SPAMMING from a Warlock or whatever it may be that affects all others anyways.

I have played for 2.5 years and the social aspect of the game is what really keeps it going for me. Dailys just get plain boring, but the interaction with other people is priceless at times. Met lots of good people and continue to do so. So its a gamers chat room for me at times. Also it helps to not just have 80s, but also have some new toons to run dungeons etc with the chance that you could die etc vs becoming so strong and tanked out with the best epic armor and socketed gems for theri stats that you become godlike and it gets boring if you dont have to worry about dying in the game and swat bosses like flies. Without a challenge it gets old fast if you are playing the game, just to play the game not not be social.
