Starting Transfer of Main Toons

[Seldum]

Hi Guys,

As I said earlier in December (not that anyone probably noticed) I would transfer my Mains from Silvermoon EU to Grim Bathol when the funds rolled into my account :)

Well this just happened, and on Sunday I will initiate the faction + server change.

My original plan to be almost lvl 80 when I transfer didn't hold up, but with a good investment in quests during the weekend I should be 76 maybe even 77 which should be good enough so I can fight back should I meet a 78-79 char during my lvl in Northrend.

I have already my noob pally team on the server and in the guild (unless they have been kicked already) so I can't wait to join with the rest (if i'm allowed).

The timing for this is perfect as I'm nearing the stage where I am to start tweaking the team a bit more and therefore some expert advice will always be welcome.... and i'm also missing the social aspect of being in a guild :)

See you there, ill keep you updated.

your most welcome! Will look forward to seeing you soon!

BTw just for some advice on transfer, blizzard has screwed me over with transfers by blocking my card. so learn from my mistakes and do 2 transactions a time not 3, its too risky for them to block the final transfer process due to thier security being over tight.

so if you got 5 team to shift then do 2 trans, wait 24 hours, 2 more and then 24 hours and then 1. so i would recommend starting the process now in order to be here by end of the week.

my 2 cents :)

[Seldum]

Thanks for the tips. Either that or switch credit card during the process :)

I read about some people with problems transferring, lets hope I get around that..... Grim Batol here we come... back to the horde where it all began....

tried switching cards aswell, as i moved 10 80's lol alot of faction/ transfers.

still blocked me even tho i used a different bank card. trust me stick with 2 then wait 24 hours :D

[Wokomehee]

Great that u wanna join us =) Welcome!

[merujo]

Welcome!

[Littleburst]

Nice, the more the merrier!

Good luck with the transfering

[Seldum]

Thanks for the transfer advice. Ill start earlier then! :)

[Seldum]

Now the first 3 accounts have started the approval process to get to the server. After this I guess ill have to do the faction change.

When this have been completed ill transfer the two "main" toons and do the faction change aswell. If im lucky I should be up and running for the weekend. But lets see what happens. :)

By bags are packed and i'm ready to take the big step into PvP.....

[Seldum]

First 3 chars have been transferred. I have initiated the faction change on these 3 chars as well.

Tomorrow ill start the server change on the two left on Silvermoon.

[boxblizzard]

sweet, hope to see you soon, :D

p.s Message Twjz or Funkbeefs when your on and i'l give you invite.

[Seldum]

Roger that :)

If everything have gone smoothly you should see the 3 lowbies in the guild tonight.

[murat]

I leveling my shaman team atm. I will also transfer to Grim Batol when they are ready.

[Fuzzyboy]

More danes - yay :-P Welcome!

[Seldum]

I just wanna say thanks to littleburst (the name in here?) for helping me getting the last of my toons into the GIMP guild last night.

Even though you guys think i'm a noob, which I am :D, it was good fun playing a couple of hours and chatting with you all in the guild.

I have never been apart of a "real" guild since I have played with a friend on different servers both on horde and alliance and eventually ended up playing on the Silvermoon server.

I can't help but to laugh at myself when I got the achievement last night for: "First honorable kill" :D

I guess theres a first for everything. I haven't done any pvp at all with my team, and in my 2 years of wow I have fought other players maybe 4 times in total. 2 battlegrounds with my mage and then some world pvp.

So last night I ganked a Death Knight just because... well I dunno actually, maybe just to try it out or maybe it's because I hate DK's.
Totally overpowered 1x80+1x78+3x76 all attacking a lvl 72 DK... haha
What I appreciate is the ability to ask in the guild: What do you guys do? and get some pointers.

Because after I killed the guy I sorta sat there thinking about the consequences. I he would get pissed and get some guild allies he would be able to gank be over and over.

I can't wait till next time I get a chance to play a bit and lvl my team. I'm also very excited about joining a BG or something because that probably the most fun I have ever had in wow with my old mage at 60+.

I'm very please I paid the $$$$ to transfer to Grim and even do a faction change with the loss of my beloved elfs as a consequence. And here I though the druid gear couldn't get more ugly... well at least until I saw my team being Tauren. Omg.

One of the first things i did while fixing my UI on my druid again after i transfered him was searching the spellbook twice for Shadowmeld. >.< Even finding Warstomp didn't ring a bell yet. I do miss that spell, shadowmeld + flightform was pretty awesome at times. But you're gonna have 5 warstomps. You'll appriciate that eventually ;)

[Seldum]

hehe I guess you are right. But I have to cancel my current stance to use the warstops right?

[Littleburst]

don't know, i can Warstomp in Tree of life. You got 5 anyway, so easy to test :P

[mikekim]

I said it in guild chat, and I'll say it again here... WELCOME :)

[Seldum]

Thanks :)

Yes I just need to test it myself.

On a funny note. After fiddeling around with my ui for like hours during the weekend I was finally content everything had beed sorted out the way I like. So I hit the random dungeon button and get Violet Hold. Mind you this is NOT on heroic.
I don't fancy this instance but it's not the worst instance I could have picked up.

I head in, the first portal opens, the gatekeeper spawns and I start tanking with my lvl 80, almost in full epic gear. It goes smoothly until I want to heal the tank a bit then..... * BAHM * all my toons leave their stances/forms - even the tank.

I think wtf? and panic.... my tank starts taking alot more damage and eventually because I freakout I wipe....

The lesson: Remember to redrag the macros you use in Vuhdo so it dosen't pop you out of the current stance.

I kinda lol at that. All was supposed to be all right... but I had forgotten that little detail haha. Gotta love druids and their forms.

On a total different note:

Here's my noob main: http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Grim+Batol&cn=Weedpower

I would really like a new piece of chest armor for this guy, but the piece you can buy for Triumph badges in dalaran is a bit towards DPS instead of tanking.
I'm considering taking a piece of the PvP gear as it would increase my health alot.

I don't have enough Frost badges to buy a ilvl 260+ chest, but I can quickly farm triumph badges.....

Most of the guides on the net is focused on the "raid" and how to get the über l33t h4x0r gear from raiding... but I will never raid, and probably not get any further than ilvl 245 with my team, which is okey.

[Seldum]

Also, I was doing my daily heroic with some random dudes, and this warrior keept pulling aggro from me in tank spec.

He then said: Tank, please keep aggro.

I look at his gear, and he was decked out in 264+271 gear. Lol. He ended up tanking the instance instead.

He could probably sole a fair bit of the instance himself. Also, some of the dps's was pulling 5-7k dps overall during the run.

Comon, give a bear a chance here, lol

I hear ya man, when i decided to do some solo tanking in heroics for what i thought would be a easy break from boxing
i quickly realised how much of a pain in the arse random people can be, its not easy for us bears to out aggro a stupid
warlock/mage/hunters aoe especially when theres a frickin DK who's hell bent on fighting his own target an not my target
even though i put {skull} up.... and then looks at me when his 20k hp has ran out and is like "wtf man? you suck!"
I didnt mind when i ran into a ret pally with over 6k gs who was doing 9k+ dps we just made a deal that i tank, he out dps's
my aggro so he basically tank abit then i taunt off and rinse an repeat not much you can do other than that when gearing
with such well geared players.

What pisses me off is when new 80's with wank gear putting out an astonishing 1.9k dps pick up aggro cos there fighting there own target or just doing aoe all the time and dont get it when i tell them i dont have endless instant taunts i have CD's
My ele shaman put out about anyware between 3.5k - 6.2kdps and they use an aoe ability in there rotation (chain light)
But i NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER have ANY issues with being out aggro'd
on anything EVER!!! lol

Right my rant is over lol good lunch break rant this one :D and if i havent said in guild btw WELCOME :D

Well pugs can be awesome and really bad.

I tanked a couple of pugs last night, and I made a bad pull. It was clearly by fault, as I misjudged the distance to a pack of mobs. On top of pulling 2x 3 elites, one of the dps got feared into a third group and then hell broke loose.

I laughed while trying to tank the 8-9 mobs at once. Hit all my CD inkl. barskin and hit challening roar. Somehow we managed to take down all these mobs, only because the other guys did a great job - laying traps, containing the mobs etc. etc. and the healer - another druid - did all the right things.

You might be able to tank 12+ elite lvl 80 mobs when you are properly geared, but i'm not, and after the bad pull I apologized and we went on - now that was fun :D
Some of the guys probably shook their head at me.

lol ninja pulling mobs is something everyone has done, it just happens :p wether it be the tank dps or healer. But it's deffo better if you manage to survive I think everyone pats themselves on the back and indeed shakes there head at the ninja lol I think it's when you get groups like I had who perposly run ahead pulling mobs expecting you to tank them off them then tell you your going to slow that make me never want to PuG tank again
I had a feckin annoying dk in a group who did exactly that all through UP and on the last boss he decided he wanted to tank, so I just didn't go up the ramp and watched everyones hp dissapear I didn't even enter combat, just said /p that's why your not the fucking tank. Angeldeelite leaves the party...
Lol Boxing roxx

[Seldum]

haha nice one :)

I have done the same as the healer in a party. I had trouble healing all the dps and the tank at the same time as the dps keept getting AoE. Especially a hunter and a rouge took alot of damage. The huntard should have been able to move a bit out of the way atleast sometimes, but he just stood so close to the boss and trash he always took alot of damage.

I just stopped healing them. They got very pissed, but I just said: "Don't stand in the stuff that hurts". The hunter logged off. The rouge was a bit more carefull after the first two deaths.

If I play a healer, and I can see my mana drain is to big, I will always choose to heal the tank instead of a dps.
