What will you be rolling come TBC?Follow

That is, if you're going to be rolling anything at all. I am sticking with my pally, but a Prot Draenei warrior is waiting in the wings. Still trying to think of a wicked name for him.

What about ya'll?

I want to do a drenie priest. Never played a priest before. Should be interesting.

Draenei Shammy for me. I will probably start him right away but aim to get out of the newbie zones quick and into my normal leveling routine for ally characters.

I want to get him into a BG environment as quick as I can.

I'll probably do the typical thing and roll a BE paladin and a Draenei shaman, just to see if they're significantly different. Other than that, keep leveling the alts I already have. The two new races don't fascinate me much- I'd have rather had new playable classes, but I know it's hard to come up with new classes without breaking the existing ones.

Mainly focusing on levelling my Druid to 70, but will also be rolling a Draenei Warrior (I love warriors but all mine are Horde and I'd like one I can play with my Alliance buddies). I'll probably also roll a Blood elf Priest who I'll never play. I've had a cool name (Alarice) reserved for a BE Priest for ages but I'm half thinking of using it for my warrior as I'll play her more. On the other hand, I was thinking of going for something more Russian for her...

I have my druid and warlock to level but I will probably at least start a draenei shaman.

I don't know about others but I have a 60 horde shaman on another server and I miss him.

I would say make a new char and then move him/her to a "Normal" start area. Yes you will miss out on some quest and the such but you can always go back and do those quest a week or two after TBC is out.


Or you can make another ALT

I've been trying to reign in my alt-mania so that I have plenty of character slots open on the 2 realms I primarily play on for young BlElfs and Draenei.

The first thing I'll probably do is start a new Draenei Paladin to level into the 30-39 bracket (on Feathermoon, where I'm in a heavy BG/PvP guild), and a Blood Elf Paladin to eventually get to 70 (on Lightninghoof, where I eventually hope to get into some end-game stuff).

After those two are well into their journey, in no particular order:
Draenei Priest & Shammy (never played either class beyond level 6... seems like as good a time to start as any)
Draenei Pally (for 20-29 BGs)

And... just for fun...
Blood Elf Rogue
Mage (either race)
Hunter (either race)

Of course... once I've been through the new starter zones a couple of times, I will likely become less rigid about race choice. Several of these could end up being Trolls, Humans, Gnomes, etc.

I'm hoping it will mean we actually have some runners in WSG on alliance side during a given pug.


Hey it could happen.

Also who doesnt want to be a Dranny Shammyâ„¢?

Druids are the good runners in WSG and there are always plenty of elfy druids, shammy gets GW at level 20 but that still doesn't half-match a druid runner with cat & travel form.

Ah, I guess I'll keep leveling my warlock and my shaman alt.
Then sometime or another I'll probably roll a BE rogue as I've always wanted to have a rogue, and probably a pally too, just to take advantage of how powerful they have just become :P

With 2 toons to get to 70 quickly (Feen and Dithers) that will take up most of my post-BC time for a bit. In my downtime, I'll roll a BE Paladin named "Trashadin" just to run into the middle of Lakeshire and bubblehearth.

She won't get much playtime though until the big guys are set.

"I take it you've just played Alliance? I also plan on rolling a priest, but a BE one."

I don't know if this was directed at me or not, but I do have a horde character. I'm not sure where the assumption came from.
