Ah, the Barrens...Follow

Ummmm... there's some hot Tauren chicks running around there... That's the best thing I can think of that exists there. The Barrens sucks.

Thats too funny, god barrens chat is terrible.
Why is it so bad in EVERY single server?

Absolutely the most fun place to quest for hordies though.

Being only level 35, I have yet to experience the whole world but I do like the Barrens. It is so wide and open so you can see what critters you have to deal with from far off. There are few places where unseen enemies can attack you from. You can climb the mountains and get wonderful views. I always look forward to getting my characters into the Barrens and its quests. I'm sure I'll eventually find a zone that I can call my favorite but I think Durotar and the Barrens will always feel like 'home' to me.

The more open an area is, the more comfortable I feel there. I really don't like questing/leveling in areas with tons of trees though they do usually look quite pretty. My NE almost died yesterday coming out of the Mushroom cave in Darkshore when we got jumped by three nagas and no matter how I moved my camera, there were tree branches or waterfall blocking my view of what was going on. I dislike fighting in tunnels or buildings for the same reasons - camera issues and line-of-sight issues.




I see people saying this kind of thing all the time but I seldom see any chat while I'm in the Barrens. I see questions about where to find something/someone and people looking to group up but almost no 'chat' at all. I think the only time I have seen someone acting like an idiot in chat in the Barrens is when some ?? Alliance gets spotted in the area and thinks everyone should rush to drive them out even though this is a PVE server and the only flagged Alliance around are either raiding Crossroads or playing 'bait' for getting lowbies to flag. Still, I'd say in all of my 4 Horde characters' leveling up experiences in the Barrens, I've only seen about 4-5 instances of really annoying chat behavior.

Now if people made remarks about the Dun Morogh chat or the Elwynn Forest chat, THEN I'd understand since those two regions are the only ones where I have consistently seen people calling each other stupid names and threatening to report each other for stuff and generally acting like little kids. I couldn't wait to leave those zones.

I'm not much for the barrens, because I as well have seen to many idiotic chat's there that make you want to Jump off the highest mountain there. This is on Maelstorm, so thats another server where the Barrens chat is typically brain cell damaging.

As for my favorite place right now is 1k Needles, just because the Flats are great for my level (32) and loot sells for good price at merchants. Oh and there are alot of quests to be done there.

Of course Barrens isn't my FAVOURITE place, but it's still my favourtie HORDE place. I'm currently Alliance and love Tanaris.

All NE areas suck to me. Darksshore, Ashenvale, Tedra-whatever, and Felwood mainly. But they all suck. If winterspring can be considered a NE area then that is the only one that agrees with me.

God..barrens chat used to be so awesome...Entertaining while leveling..LFG killed it :(

My favorite horde area, is Silverpine forest. I enjoy the forest environment, and how its a closed area, i feel its easier to be in.

While i was lvl 11-23 the whole time i was there, there was only one thing i ever hated. The son of arugal ::twitch:: bah!

For some reason it just came up with Allakhazam jokes but i typed C huck Norris.

Barrens chat is now the Global LFG channel.... I miss you barrens chat

Well Barrens can get kinda boring.
However at least there you can sit down without a mob or enemy player attacking you... Not like in Stranglethorn or Dustwallow Marsh.

ARE YOU ALL IDIOTS BARRENS CHAT IS THE BEST! the only real way to get it started up is to write in caps Allakhazam that seems to get some people cursing at you then other people join in and then they turn on each other then you level, go to stonetalon and let them revel in their own idiocy

Sounds like a Salvador Dali painting to me... =)
