I am not seeing many other players online.. why is this?

I've joined one of the RPPVP servers that was recommended but I don't see all that many people. With how popular this game is I expected to see people all the time?

Is it just because I am at the beginning of the game?

Also I'm constantly running out of room to pick up things. I've sold useless things but I still don't have any room. Where can I buy more bags?

Yes, as long as you're still in the beginner's areas, unless this is a newish server, you won't find many people around.

Just try not to die of shock the first time you go into a capital city (unless you're a night elf... Darnassus is pretty barren as well).

As for which mobs to kill with your group, if you have a group kill mobs that have a name in Yellow or Orange. If you don't have a group, kill Green named and Yellow named mobs.

Beware, if a mob has a golden dragon framing its portrait, that means it's an elite mob and that it is alot harder than regular mobs of the same level. A Green elite can probably eat you for lunch, especially at lower levels. Kill those in groups.

Actually, the total is 50 characters.

so i would like to take a break from questing but still be able to lvl rather quickly. i know about grinding but i am wondering how much more (if any) time it takes to lvl when your just grinding. i want to explore and work on my herbalism. any suggestions? thanks in advance.

There are several addons that enable you to click small icons near their portrait so you don't have to change target. I used BeneCast, but since the latest patch it's been all to hell.



You can do

a) The Grind. Find a nice spot of mobs that respawn fast and drop good loot (preferably humanoids if you can't skin). They should be around your level, not higher (would gimp your damage output and thus your xp/hour).

b) Instances. Depending on your level, there should be one or two instances you can do. Instances take your attention away from xp/hour and you learn how to act in a group as well, which is useful for end-game.

Of the two I prefer B. It has a lower xp/hour rate, but you get to learn your class and there is no real reason to ding 60 if you don't know how to play your class at that level. After 60 it's either battlegrounds or raids for the rest of the time (until the expansion).

Powerleveling is only recommended for those who already know the class well. Like Calabar who has three or four Hunters. I don't think leveling another through powerleveling would hurt any group he might join later on.

And by powerleveling I'm talking about grinding/questing with maxed out xp/hour. I'm NOT talking about buying powerleveling services online.

Warlock builds are pretty well segmented. You can head over to the forum here, or check out the Warlock builds on a site like Wowwiki.com

It seems any time I want to look up build variances for my warlocks, I end up seeing the same 8-9 pop up.

What does the abbrv DPS mean?

Thanks ^^

Thanks for the quick response...

One other dumb question for today... where is a good place for a lvl 20 rogue to lvl? (and the closest city please) ^^

Yeah, here's one way to do it without mods. While you're targeting and auto-attacking a mob, use the mouse and click the skill on your hotbar. That'll change your cursor to a little hand thingy, and from there just click on the target you want blessed.



A little more generalized but, this table here will give you a good idea of the level ranges of specific zones. You can always see where each zone is at by viewing the map ('m') and zooming out.

That means his PvP flag is turned on for whatever reason, meaning that anyone on the opposing faction can attack him.

How do I switch switch to Europe servers? My friend told me but I forgot he said I had to open some file in notepad and type in Eu.com or something replacing the US.COM

or along the lines of that to play on Europe servers.

#1. How do I do this?

#2. Is it breaking the rules? If it is then please don't tell me.

For people who want to switch from US/EU to EU/US servers:

You need a US/EU version of the game. (Amazon.com/Amazon.co.uk)
You need a US/EU address. (The address of a US/EU hotel will do)
You need a US/EU phone number. (The phone number of a US/EU hotel will do)
You need a US/EU credit card.*


*Unless you use prepaid gamecards, in which case you need US/EU gamecards. (Amazon.com/Amazon.co.uk)

You can't just change the realm.wtf file. It doesn't work.
