I don't hate it. It gives me 2-4 seconds to type something between sin strikes ;-)
Edit: I'm actually using a proper swing timer this time through. I didn't really in vanilla, and most of my time was spent spamming the button constantly. I'm watching the timers and only hitting the button once, right after my MH swing goes off. It definitely feels a bit better, especially when I'm with a Shaman, and between WF totem, sword spec, and Thrash Blade, numbers are just flying everywhere.

Shit i forgot about swing timers being relevant what with white damage being almost irrelevant in modern WoW and me capping energy if I'm not spamming every gcd with abilities.
But combat daggers is king compared to the pretender of combat swords or the fool of combat maces
If you put the faster dagger in your off hand you will still strike 1.3 to 1.8 times faster with two daggers than one sword
I was curious if anyone here would help me get a few signatures to create a guild so I stop getting harassed on my priest?
It's on Atiesh and the alliance
I just need 5 signatures on Atiesh I don't have much to offer though
I mean if your guildmates are just total randos that you picked up off the street, then what's the difference between a guild group and a PuG? Why bother?
(and frankly I've been in a lot of "guild runs" that were terrible, and a lot of PuGs that fuckin' crushed it.)

This is one of the things that drives me insane in retail. I don't play for long periods of time and end up without a guild and then I am spammed non-stop.
I usually asked people if they wanted to join the guild in classic if I saw they were guildless and I was doing group stuff with them and liked what I saw.

What is the point of being alive if you don't at least try to do something remarkable? ~ Mario Novak
I never fear death or dyin', I only fear never trying.
I keep a list. One might call it... a Friend List of all the decent people I encounter as I level.
Now if only there was a way to get rid of the B.Net stuff while I'm playing Classic.
I stopped doing that at some point on retail, but man, playing Classic, I've started to do that again. Me and this other gnome mage have been leveling pretty steady at the same rate, so now we just invite each other to dungeon runs or questing if we're in the same zone.
I highly recommend the Character Notes addon. You have to download it manually (no Twitch), but it’s worth it. It lets you add notes for people and flag them as Positive/Neutral/Negative. The note flag shows up in chat channels, on tooltips, etc. I like it.

Yeah, I have started up a friends list for randos that I had a good group with, and ElvUI at least shows those guys separately, at the top, so I've been able to keep track.

I have only met a few while questing far more on the horde than the alliance. But I am being a sadist leveling a holy priest solo compared to grouping with my brother's tank on my other priest which is why we decided to make a guild to stop the harassment
The sad thing is people on the horde of Atiesh are far nicer than the alliance as people on the alliance demand they get a gold for a signature when all I am doing is going around goldshire offering a linen bag now {I was offering wool or silk but I got ripped off} and 15s for a signature but alas it's the demands of gold or better
Logged off last night 75% of the way through 59. I'll hit 60 tonight but unfortunately not have any real time to play for the next few weeks, so MC will have to wait until later. In the meantime I'll be using the odd free hours I do have to level up engineering. I've actually never had an engineer ever, so will be interesting! Hopefully the bags of ore I stockpiled while leveling will make it reasonably painless to level.

Man I miss the LFG tool. There's almost zero way to get low level instance groups past like WC when you're no longer questing in the same area that the instance is in.
Mortious There's an addon called Puggle that will read all the spammy channels and then sort by dungeon and show you who is looking for what, with filters of course. You can then /who or whisper from there. It is GREAT. I keep LFG and trade over in a never-look-at-it tab and then just open Puggle when I want a group. Highly recommend it.
Thanks for this suggestion. I've used it for a week now, and it actually works. It turns out that there is a big gap in dungeons that people use the LFG tool for, but at least I have been able to see the very few requests that do come through.
Will be much more useful as I get a couple of more levels (though by that time the server pop will probably have moved on)

Nice! Gotta make sure you're in that global LFG channel (turn on in Social options) and you may want to turn off Puggle's filtering for level-appropriate dungeons. Sometimes it filtered dungeons I totally wanted to be doing.

The guide on WoWhead is really good if you weren't already using it. It helped me level my engi and blacksmithing efficiently.

What level do you think a hunter needs to be to solo up to the first boss of rkf, Overlord Ramtusk?
Other random question, I'll be leveling a warrior/priest with my partner.
She's going discipline. Should I go prot, arms, or fury? We should hopefully be doing dungeons fairly regularly.
You do not need to level as Prot. In fact, you're probably handicapping yourself by doing so. Arms is the standard leveling spec, and it is very good. You can swap to Fury, though, after you hit a high enough level to unlock Bloodthirst.
This will not impact your ability to tank instances while leveling at all. You don't "need" to be Prot to tank instances, though if you want to be a tank at 60 I'd probably swap around 56, when you start doing the harder instances like Strat, Scholo, LBRS, etc.
If you need specific build advice, feel free to ask me here or to PM me.
Also, just be advised that Discipline priests are fine, but Power Word Shield can really fuck with a Warrior's rage generation.

Arms actually has better tanking talents lower on the tree than prot.
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
Back in vanilla i got my lvl 40 mount at level 48, having bought every skill but also having done a ton of gray quests to "not miss the story".
Last night i was 43 and sitting in 85 gold having been careful about buying only should i used all the time). I put up a stack of iron bars and they sold right away on AH for 4.50. But mail takes an hour to resolve. I figure I'd go grind ogres for 50s while i wait. Then someone in my guild posts how they just bought their epic mount (which in vanilla took me about a year).
Long story short that guy just straight up gives me 5g!
So mounts are pretty sweet but... I forgot you have to manually dismount. I keep running beeline at enemies and hitting stealth only for nothing to happen and then the mob wails on me for a few seconds while i remember to dismount.
Gw2 really spoiled me on mounts, but it came back fairly quickly.
And it's pretty amusing how easy molten core is, We got our first rag kill with 32 people, with most having less than 2 mc drops equipped. 5 people or so were below 60 or dinged the last couple of days as well.

Looking at the early level talents, fury seems really good, 5% crit, more rage, and most importantly better cleave.
Bloodthirst itself seems pretty meh if you're always going to be with a priest though.

on the high end, if I get a thrash blade proc resulting in a double crit.... I just generate 60 rage instantly
unfortunately the proc rate is about once per day
look at this joker over here
