I like Humans as my race... mostly because the rep grind is so much easier when you get +10% (and you'll get even more via Guild Perks!). Then there's Expertise as a tank or bonus Spirit as a Healer.

Draenei provide a +hit bonus, which can be good for tanking and they add to JC skill if you're a JC. Dwarves don't get much good... +expertise if you use a mace.
it's a shame that human males are so ugly and draenei are so big.

nothing annoys me more when playing my space goat shaman than having to manually dismount to enter any building.

i think it's about the same now as then, if you adjust the expanions for a full 300 levels vice the 75 the expansion gives you.

I am at level 44 right now on a PvE server that my (real-life) friends are one. I have not played in four years. I prefer RP-PvP servers, but I just walk around with my PvP flag on and I still get the occasional world action.

Here are my complaints:

* Multi-specing (pick a specialization and go with it, no two-build bull crap, everyone can be a holy priest and shadow priest with a click of a button. I want the old system back where you had to pay crap-loads of gold to switch)

*Map markers that point you where you need to go kill the incentive to explore

*Cross-realm battlegrounds and dungeons kill the sense of community and make it more difficult to meet new people. Most people I met were folks I quested with in dungeons, how I found my old guild, etc.

*Being able to join random dungeons from anywhere in the world kills any incentive not to just farm instances, thus fewer people questing in the world.

*You can have a toon on both factions on PvP servers now, no sense of real rivalry.

*Hyper-inflation has set in, Blizzard needs to make more money sinks to get gold out of circulation

I love all these changes. Do I really have to give up my real life just to sit outside a 40 man dungeon just for a chance to get an epic for 10+ hours. No thanks.

This is a bug. A hotfix was applied about an hour ago that changes it so Chaos Orbs will only be available for Need rolls by characters with Tailoring, Blacksmithing, Leatherworking, and Engineering (minimum skill of 425 required). This fix may not appear until the next time realms are restarted, which is likely to be early tomorrow morning.

So I guess SW [for Alliance] is once again the place to hearth back to since we have free ports to the new areas? Dalaran must be a virtual ghost town now...

Yeah, SW on my server is so insanely packed in-between the AH and bank, it's ridiculous. Too....many....people.

As per usual, Alchemy is still the easiest profession to level... although, it really helps if you have a JC'er available to give you the gems.

JC isn't too bad if you don't make gems to level up... there are the items that you can make (and then shard) that stay orange much longer. I've been tempted to make them, but I could just hold back and at least use the gems on making stuff I'll actually use.

I actually ended up making a bunch of 40 Stam to Bracer enchants to get up to 460 enchanting... I still have so many old mats that it isn't bad.

Human Female Warlock
Human Female Warrior
Human Female Death Knight
Gnome Male Rogue

Human Males look awful.
Dwarves are hideous.
Draenei look bulky for males, nice for females but the eyes are weird.
Gnomes are neat.
Night Elves look cool, but no Warlock.
I haven't looked at the Worgen yet.

Human's rep gain, pvp racial and expertise are all nice.

Yesterday I was at 490 tailoring and 495 enchanting with casual leveling and a little AH help. Due to the 45 minute queue times I decided to max them out. I spent 22k gold roughly to hit 525 in each one and made the tailoring dps belt which sells for around 14k on my server.

The 425 level is low. It should require at least a 450. Heck I wouldn't have minded a 500 requirement on it.

good point, the queues aren't bad on Mannoroth as a healer, but the pugs are terrible.

I am on Frostmane. I can see people making mistakes, they happen. It is just that most people don't learn from them.

Heroics will be nerfed soon. Casuals can't complete them for the gear they desire. Blizzard built their userbase up by dumbing down stuff while leaving hard stuff for the hardcore people. I have been in very few pugs that can do anything right.

The highest item level for each spot is taken into acount, whether it's worn or in your bag.
