Used to play on many, latest one for me was Firestorm Wrath of the Lich King, but it seems to be changed since I last was there. https://firestorm-servers.com/en/
Never tried a permadeath server, usually only stick to MoP and before (preferably Wrath of the Lich King), the times I tried Legion it was too buggy, but anything can be fun with friends.

Have u ever played any MoP servers? The expansion is kinda faggy but it allowed u to spam idle players with overpowered pet battles.
So we walked down the hill into all those fears and maybes, all that sorrow, nothing certain in our lives except the frozen earth beneath our feet.

I did play MoP! I played it because I wanted to learn more cooking recipees myself, but yeah, it was not WoW, felt more like those "koombaya" storylines where everyone has to join forces. I am not sure if that was the one that changed WoW, but seeing that panda in the trailer was... odd. Seeing all the other furry beasts they added now, I am thinking they were testing the waters then to add more in the future.

i'm on Warmane's Lordaeron one right now, and as much as it's notorious for p2w douchebags it hasn't been so bad, only real issues are the occasional lvl 80 wankers that gank lowbies in stranglethorn and what have you

but ye i'd be down to give a different private server a try with you lads, i didn't find any other servers that wowed me (pardon the pun) and just opted for warmane, but am open to ideas

Going to update this post here for now with what I get done writing up, might take awhile, but I'm on it.

Some thoughts and rants on Arathi Basin and other things people might learn something from. Most of this is up to Cataclysm with some MoP experience.

That's all for now. As as mentioned before... some of this information may not apply to all expansions/retail now. It's all personal experience and opinion.

Just did the raid.

So, that's it for the Nerubian war? We never got the grandiose war advertised in the titular expansion and on the key art. It doesn't feel like a big battle is being waged with other NPCs fighting in the background like in Siege of Orgrimmar or Antorus or Amirdrassil. It's just 15 guys running through chopping up bodyguards, and then some VIPs, and then killing the queen while she is alone. It is also disappointing that there is no epilogue. I went back to the inn in the Weaver's Lair expecting Neferess to get the news that Ansurek is dead and to come back, but that didn't happen. And at the end of the raid, the Vizier is talking about how they have to keep things hush? What? Ansurek, her two generals, and all of her loyal soldiers within the castle walls are dead. Who are you afraid of? Just tell the people the truth: Ansurek got duped.

Aesthetically, I thought the raid was good-ish. More memorable than Vault of the Incarnates. Music was forgettable. There is tense violin music playing on the boss fights that makes it a little more exciting, but I can't remember anything about it melodically. Wouldn't add it to my favorite's playlist.

The boss fight weren't anything super standout but overall better than Vault, where I can hardly remember any of the fights. I liked picking up the chunks of meat and throwing them into the first boss' mouth. Running around chasing Rasha'nan was fun. I liked the intensity of Broodtwister with her creepy-cool model and the room slowly filling up with that creeping AoE. The dual boss fight against Anub and Takazj was neat.

I don't think the dungeon journal explained the web mechanic on the Silken Council very well. It said that it causes massive raid wide damage when the web breaks, so I thought it was going to be like the DoT mechanic on Sarkareth where you can't have everyone break their webs all at once and instead have to pace them out over the course of the fight, so I was running with my partner trying not to break the web. But apparently everyone was just breaking the web immedietely? But then you also have other people who have to keep the link to trip Anub when charges. It's just not tutorialized well.

Ansurek was an underwhelming base game final boss compared to Raszageth. Raszageth appeared from the beginning of the Dragonflight story in the Forbidden Reach and then popped in a few times throughout, and then the base game culminated in you killing the main villain which was a nicer conclusion to the base expansion experience than usual. Raszageth also had a cooler design being a bird dragon that breathes lightning lasers. Ansurek however is only introduced in the last 5 minutes of the Azj-Kahet questline, and doesn't look as cool. Doesn't feel as cathartic of a final boss.

Fin sent me one and i got it, sent one back I assumed it worked on his end. Not sure if you are getting mine. I'll post it here then.

Trying to get all my thoughts out on a variety of things PvP related while they come to me. It's disorganized and semi rant right now lol but I'll organize and section it when I can so it's relatable and easy to read/understand, as I've had these thoughts and rants before with my brother and others. Just trying to get it all down and then expand on things properly. Lots of things to go over, but I'm on it.

Have to step out for a bit but I'll be back in about 30.

Okay so I have a lot written down about the first topic:

Arathi Basin, my favorite BG.

I need to format it and spellcheck, etc. Looks rough to me on Word so I'll need some time to see how it looks on here with some proper formatting, no promises of beauty though. Trying to get down all I can think of based on my experience and expansions I played. Never posted long stuff or guides like this but I'll post when I can.

** Post a few above updated for btw with my thoughts/experience on stuff **

AFAIK it is very risky to tamper with WoW beyond doing UI addons. Anything like straight up model replacement could get you flagged and banned. You can't do model replacers like in FF14.

Okay so, been talking to my brother on voicechat, we flipped some coins. Races, classes, factions, gender...etc. He wants me to keep going on the Undead Priest after 25-0 to see how far I get but I don't want to spoil it. I flipped some coins and I'm going to see how far I get on a:

Undead Rogue Female this time. Just hit level 5, will update when I get to 17 or so for first BG queueing.

** a few posts up is updated btw for Val/anyone... regarding my bg thoughts and Arathi Basin.
