Don't know about pets (turtles I hear are good?), but kiting in general involves you running in circles while slowing the mob down a bit, and doing damage to it over time. Or, alternatively, you go faster than it, while doing damage. For Hunters, I think that's Aspect of the Cheetah for speed, plus Serpent Sting for damage. It's not exactly fast, but it should be safe.

There's also a spinshot thing you can try to pull off to keep distance easier, I think its recommended for the class epic quest. You turn the camera real quick so it changes which way you're facing just long enough that you're able to shoot your target without losing any ground. I could never manage to pull it off but I also didn't practice much.

You can see what I'm talking about here (also just do yourself a favor and mute the video)

I'm torn between paladin and warlock. I was a healer back in the day and I've never leveled a paladin but sometimes you just wanna summon demons and shadowbolt things y'know?

Are DoTs instant tag or do you still have to wait for the first tick to tag a mob?

Could we realistically pick a 5 man group and leave the starting zone and take on the higher level 5 or so mobs or are they flat out going to destroy us? I'd figure a 5 man grind group could skip ahead to get above the curve so you're jot fighting for kills on the first quest mobs.

You have to get a tick in first, they're reeeeally not good for tagging in high competition areas.

:effort: is taking the lead so far. I can't remember, can chat channels be created by anyone in game? I'll try to jump on mumble, but having an in game chat until the guild is up would be helpful as well.

They can to my knowledge, unless that was different in early vanilla. I'd also like an ingame chat til we get the guild charter done.

Channel is working, erryone do this please.

...I think I'm gonna bench this for several hours or a day or two. 3 minute spawn timer on a single quest item with 20 people standing on it at any given time no thanks.

e: oh, before I forget have they addressed the whole "pve server actually being pvp" thing

"feral druids don't need strength", so I lost a chance to roll on anything from the final boss.

Honestly the options here are either
a) they're dumb assholes
b) someone in the group didn't want competition and was being a dick about it
c) all of the above

I hate being the highest level pally in the guild, it just means I get to be a buffbot. :shepicide:

I present to you Exhibit A as to why I rolled a lock instead of a pally.

So I'm thinking of either a druid or priest for healing purposes at 60. What specs would be best for vanilla leveling? Would balance and disc be painful to do?

I can't wait to use wands again :v:

I've been using the specs in this album. I think Tanners leveled disc tho, he'll probably have a better answer for you.
