And picked the game up for free at my Futureshop. By 'free', I naturally mean, $10 CAD, which is significantly less then the cost of the single month included in the package.
Aside from the usual, and expected changes of talents, spells, and abilities from beta, I have noticed a few things.
1. World PvP. Dead can't really begin to describe it. My rogue's level 29, and so far, the only enemy players I have seen that weren't level ??, was a level 25 BE hunter, when I was 23. The only kind of engagements that seem to be happening, aside from level 70s trying to camp Darkshire, was one raid from SW to the Undercity, and a retalation.
I've heard that apparently, it's still alive on certain servers - has anyone at all noticed that? For reference, my characters are on Ner'Zhul - a high pop PvP server, that's still without queues.
2. Battlegrounds. I can't say I'm speaking from a position of experience here, but they seem to be filled to the brim with 2K hp twinks, with the possible exception of various level 23s and 28s here and there, which are typically fairly easy kills (Something that's not wholly right in itself). I can't say I'm buying the crap about how they "Are looking for the challenge of taking on another twink" :rolleyes:.
Is there anything I can do to my play to 'adapt' to 'counter' that? Or should I just write low-level BGs off?
3. I've got other questions I've yet to forumulate, but these two are the most pressing ones.
