A Worgen Rogue. Now I&#8217;m having heavy second thoughts about his continued.. life in my character list.<br \/>\nOne of the reasons I made a Worgen is to see the start area, with people. It&#8217;s unlike anything I thought, heavily RPing before the time of the Cataclysm and the Worgen attacking Gilneas.<br \/>\nYou get bitten by one of them, and slowly turn into one. Now the Forsaken are attacking, and earthquakes are causing flooding and other chaos. The earthquakes are just before the Cataclysm struck.<\/p>\n<p>Soon you save the day by destroying the Horde Zeppelin, and go with the Night Elves to their city. That&#8217;s pretty much where you&#8217;re on your own.<\/p>\n<p>I went to GS to say hi to the new faces. They acted like they couldn&#8217;t tell the obviousness of my name, which is Beniehowl. I dueled a few people, and&#8230; lost more times than won, which was once out of all the defeats.<br \/>\nMost of the time I forget to shift into Worgen form before going all stealthy. Other times&#8230; I&#8230;.. I don&#8217;t know why I suck so bad.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, went back to Benie and finally did those runs I said I was, in Outland. Went to Coilfang Reservoir and soloed The Slave Pens, and The Steamvault. Both were successful solos, which nearly is the proof I need that I can solo Botanica.<br \/>\nLater on I tried to do Molten Core. I get there, ask the BE for a port and it gets canceled the second I try. I try again, same thing. Then I notice an annoying message; &#8220;Normal difficulty is not available in Molten Core.&#8221;, aka, Blizzard made it Heroic only.<\/p>\n<p>The more that I think about it, maybe it&#8217;s for a good reason. They know high levels will be able to solo the boss and get that weapon. And they know they can grind and use MC as an exploit. They won&#8217;t have that. They got to make you work your ass off like they do for everything.<br \/>\nSpeaking of that, there&#8217;s something I found a way around of not having to work my ass off..<\/p>\n<p>Wyrmrest Temple rep is that thing. I&#8217;ve been halfway from Exalted in months. Through Wowhead, I found a workaround that happened to be in my favor. There&#8217;s a BE in Dalaran that sells rep commendation badges, for 16 Justice points each. I would need 19 of those badges to become exalted.<br \/>\nI was on a cussing spree due to Blizzard still making you work your ass off to get these points (seriously, I get this shit in Wurm. I don&#8217;t need it here), until I realized&#8230; I had 374 Justice Points from the runs I did while getting to\/being Level 80 in Northrend. That dungeon finder actually paid off for once. I could finally get that drake!<\/p>\n<p>So I eagerly flew to Dalaran, met the BE and handed over my Justice Points for 19 Wyrmrest commendation badges, then flew to the temple. At first I thought I need to turn said badges in somewhere. Had no idea you&#8217;re supposed to right click to give yourself the rep.<br \/>\nSo I did, and <em>finally<\/em> got exalted on the 19th one. Had alittle trouble trying to find the Quartermaster, but I got my drake!! \ud83d\ude00 NO MORE will I have to defend the temple!<\/p>\n<p>Flew home on my new dragon, and did what I couldn&#8217;t do on my Nether Drake, which is cast \/mountspecial and then run around. This shows the dragon roaring while running. Funny and Epic at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nAs I mentioned before about the Worgen Rogue I made and him getting beaten, well.. when I came back home from not being able to do MC, my friend and other guy who was a Rogue were talking about the Rogue owned him. I watched the two duel, and everytime, the rogue won it.<br \/>\nAll my friend said was to nerf Rogues.<br \/>\nThis really upsets me. <em>My<\/em> Rogue couldn&#8217;t beat him, yet he can. So&#8230; why should I keep him around? I know very little on how to play a Rogue. As in, what to use and when.<br \/>\nRogues are too fucking dependent on their gear, along with other melee classes. I was told years ago that Rogues are &#8220;WoW in Easy mode&#8221; by the same person who taught me what I know now. I find Hunters the &#8220;easy mode&#8221; class.<br \/>\nOthers, find Death Knights easy (Blood DK&#8217;s anyway). I do not.<\/p>\n<p>The same goes to my Druid. Sure, I got him up to 80, but he rarely dueled like Benie does. Druids I feel are more harder now to play, with this &#8220;Day\/Night&#8221; thing I heard about that plays a critical role on how strong you are. Why couldn&#8217;t they just leave well enough alone? Leave it where I remember how to play, without having to learn this new shit?<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all I have to say about this matter. And.. oh yeah. Been a week since I came back to WoW. Cooleow and all of the people I got on my friends list have not shown up.<br \/>\nI still don&#8217;t know who hacked my account. But I&#8217;m trying to put all of that behind me by soloing again. On the two runs I did, I made a good profit. Though half of what I looted suggests I Disenchant instead of sell to the AH. I&#8217;m trying to get back the cash I had from buying the new mount and other things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I finally made a Worgen char. A Worgen Rogue.
