someone mentioned corpse running, can you reanimate somewhere other than near your corpse and in the nearest graveyard?
Look on the icon bar at the bottom of your screen for the “?” icon. Click it and choose the “Open a Ticket” button. Type your problem succinctly but clearly - I know no one on the server, I have no higher level character, I’m stuck somewhere post-Shattering and there are no flight paths out, my hearth is set here, please send me to another major city somewhere.
Alternately, I’m making a draenai death knight named “Desta”; if no one gets to you tonight or tomorrow we can meet up and I’ll escort you to safety. You will just have to excuse that I know nothing about Alliance towns and hope that I don’t reflexively head to a Horde settlement. ![]()
Sorry, adhemar–I’ve been calling you a guy. My bad for assuming.
On opening a ticket:
On your action bar, towards the right hand side, just before your backpack slots, there is a question mark button. Click it, and a box will pop up with various options to search the online help. At the bottom of that box will be a button marked “open a ticket”. Click it, may have to click an equivalent of “really open a ticket” or something, on the next screen, then you will get a screen with space for you to describe the problem and a button to submit the ticket, which will produce an icon at the top right of your screen, where buffs would also display, indicating your ticket is pending. Mouseover will likely say there is a large volume of tickets, and you may have to wait a couple days for a response. The response can be a live, ingame chat with a GM, or an ingame email. You can play your character while the ticket is pending, or play other characters.
ETA:** Ferret Herder** beat me to the answer. I should have previewed to avoid a duplicate response.
no problem it is a man’s name afterall
God, my mood swings are something else…
After some thought, I realized I need to step away from the game for a while. Horrible timing with the expansion next week, but I’ve been stuck in a serious rut for a while and I think WoW is at least partially to blame. So I’m going to step back and make myself do without for a time. It’s a bad sign that I care more that I’m stepping away from the game itself than that I’m stepping away from the BDL.
Nope, got sent there on a “Hero’s Call”; I was over-leveling EPL at the time.
Hero’s Calls are nice, one of the biggest problems when leveling used to be those times when you found yourself wondering “ok, where to now?” You even get sent to different places from different capitals.
I’m not sure what you mean in your last sentence (you’re sick of the BDL?) but if you’re not enjoying it, take a break. The game, and the guild if you want, will be here when you’re ready to come back.
Put it this way: when I think about no longer playing the game my first thought isn’t “But I won’t be able to play with the guild any more,” but rather “But my Mage just hit 80 and I’m going to level a Shaman and I want to see the new quests and zones.” It isn’t that I don’t enjoying playing with the BDL, it’s that I care about the game itself more. And that, I think, is a problem.
“Mood Swings”, eh? That’s something I can sure understand, Bosstone, but you’ve been a wonderful help to the “German Boy” (as have ALL of you!) and I hope you hang around here at least till you get the feeling again!
Thanks
Q
“It’s not you, Baby, it’s me!” ![]()
I know what your saying. I’m fortunate that I have a wife who hates WoW and gives me the stinkeye while I play – it keeps my playtime limited and prevents me from becoming an unhaven, unshowered hermit huddled in front of my screen for days on end. If the game starts becoming too important it’s good to step back for a bit for some perspective.
You take that back!
Work and my ‘this is where you cross the geek line’ keep me in line. I refuse to be the unemployed, Cheezies eating fat chick living in her parents’ basement.
I am an employed, Cheezies eating fat chick living in her own apartment. 
Got my Teldrassil Sproutling last night. I actually haven’t seen that many nelfs in Tree form, so I forgot about the purplish hue. But I’m still in love. 
Good god, I’d forgotten how sick I was of AT dailies. Started in on them again to finish off the last of the mounts I needed. Still have another ~250 badges to grind out, for the Exo mount and the brown hippogryph. Sigh.
On the plus side, I got my sunflower pet last night! Only took me three tries to get through the pumpkin stage–once on my own, and then twice after I read the tip to plant 10 sunflowers.
Sorry, my point was that *the other healer *is sniping *your *heals. They should see your incoming cast and avoid starting a heal on the same character–I’m not saying that you should be canceling your heals mid-cast when you get sniped.
Actually, my meaning was simply that they should swim up the coast to Westfall to get out of Booty Bay, versus trying to run up through STV into Duskwood.
Nope. Corpse-running refers to making your way through a difficult area by simply running as far ahead of your corpse as you can before you rez, so that you’ve made some minimum of progress before you die again. In particularly dangerous zones (usually ones where the mobs overlevel you by a metric shitload), you’ll often be killed just a second or two after you rez, so if you don’t move to the outside edge of your rez radius in the direction you want to go before rezzing, you’ll never get anywhere.
Good luck! Let us know how that “sun” thing is doing.
Actually, IIRC Night Elf and Tauren tree forms were identical.
And, of course, after making that decision, I come across these banners and instantly want them. :smack:
I feel your pain. I got the 'gryph, but I still need most of the 100-badge racial mounts and the dragonkin mount, plus the horse. And nerfing the gold reward for the dailies only made them less appetizing. I’m pretty sure that after Tuesday I’m not coming back to AT for a while, though.

I tried that tip, but I couldn’t get that many planted fast enough. I’ll have to keep trying.

That was me (the other healer). I know I had Grid set up to show other incoming heals at one time, but that setting may have gotten messed up with the patching - thinking about it I don’t think I was seeing his incoming heals like I used to. I’ll re-check my Grid settings.
Any time I see faction gear, it always makes me depressed that the Alliance symbol is so lame. The Horde get a neat abstract design, and we get… a cartoon lion. Whoop.
The way I worked it was something like: Keep the sunflower on CD as much as you can until you get your 10 planted. Get at least three down before you make anything else. Once you start getting ghouls coming across the lawn, start planting your spitters where they’re needed most in between planting more sunflowers. My final setup was two rows of sunflowers, two rows of spitters, and one row of the freezing ones (in that order from the back). They weren’t planted in exactly that order–there was some skipping around depending on where there were the most ghouls. I also used a vine or two in places where zombies broke through to the first line of plants.
Yeah, I know some of my settings got all weird. Doing more coordination with coverage can be useful, too, e.g. assigning specific group(s) for each raid healer and only overlapping when someone is really close to death.
Well concerning healing assignments, we had one for the tanks (me) and one for the raid (him), but the tanks weren’t taking enough damage to keep me completely occupied. I think my tracking incoming heals would have avoided a lot of the sniping.
In general, it’s my impression that healing someone else’s assignment is generally frowned upon except in times of dire need. My highest healer is like 55 though, so I could be wrong.
Regarding the PvZ game:I won it handily by putting down two rows of sunflowers, then a row of spitters as zombies appeared, then a row of tentacles as ghouls appeared, then bomb the crap out of the boss.And yeah, that was my experience Holy healing too: there’s periods where the tanks are covered by Beacon’s healing, so you might as well heal the raid. It’s just as well, I doubt I could have kept the Marked players alive with my output alone on Saurfang, I just noticed we were tripping over each other a lot of times.
I was actually talking about the pumpkin level specifically–it’s way harder than the final boss, IMO.
