World of Warcraft screenshots
A few intsa-pics from my favorite online RPG.
My character, Bendux the paladin, Knight of the Silver Hand. The symbol on his chest is the iron key, the insignia of his guild, the Gatekeepers.
(note: the gear-like apparatus on his shield actually rotates, generating a small stream of energy Bendux uses as a source for magic)
Bendux in his day-to-day clothes.
(minor note: the book sitting on the table in front of him is the story about how the five most powerful dragons in the world became the demigods they are as of the game's time)
Bendux on his charger and some night elf on a gryphon, taking during a major glitch in the game where the gryphon refused to fly any higher.
From left: Bendux, the dragoness Lady Onyxia, the boy king of Stormwind, Anduin Wrynn, and Bolvar Fordragon, the High Lord of Stormwind.
Lady Onyxia, King Anduin, and Bendux from another angle. I wouldn't mess with that chick!
Bendux facing Stormwind's trio of leadership, with Onyxia in her human facade.
More to come, possibly, as I find more interesting things to take snapshots of.

Well, yeah. The Demonslayer enchant is a level 40 minimum req, the hammer he has is most likely from a uh... level 42 quest I think? Maybe 47. And the triangular shield there is commonly seen on mid-high level grabadins/protection wars, though I forget the name.Stofsk wrote:You can eyeball the level based on what doodads the guy's got?Ar-Adunakhor wrote:What level? I'm guessing around 46-52, but that's just eyeballing it from the Demonslayer enchant and the shield in the last photo.
Though, to be honest, some of that might have changed since I stopped playing 8-10 months ago.

Ah, I see. Demonslayer and fire are close in color. What server do you play?
On a highly related tangent, it is a bit scary that I can still eyeball chars that well. I mean, it has been nearly 10 months since I quit the game. Meh, I blame all the PvP and needing to quickly see who had enough epics to fight me.

My alliance chars are on Twisting Nether (famed for its power source of hamster wheels) and my Horde chars are on Mug'thol. I have some others scattered around, but those are the only important ones.Ar-Adunakhor wrote:Ah, I see. Demonslayer and fire are close in color. What server do you play?

Ah, unfortunate for you. Had you been luckier in picking servers, you would have just inhereted ~5k gold and dozen high-end epics. Assuming my account was still active, that is.Kuja wrote:My alliance chars are on Twisting Nether (famed for its power source of hamster wheels) and my Horde chars are on Mug'thol.

How many chars do you have, and what are their levels? Do you suffer from the dread Altoholisim?
I have five characters on each, my main, and alt to play while my main gets some rest, and three more to play around with when I'm bored or want to tnker with something new.Ar-Adunakhor wrote:*shrugs*Ah, unfortunate for you.

My paladin maintains about 500 gold between playing the auction house (for an entire day I dominated the mageweave market, bwahaha) and buying stuff out. It's about all I really need.

Mageweave and runecloth are second only to epics for fleecing the hordes of their hard-farmed gold.Kuja wrote:My paladin maintains about 500 gold between playing the auction house (for an entire day I dominated the mageweave market, bwahaha) and buying stuff out. It's about all I really need.
Sounds fun. My reccomendation would be to get a priest as alt. Later on you will be heralded as a god for saving the day due the priest calling in sick. Mages are fun too, and level like woah due to IAE. The best strategy is to get a friend to alt both priest and mage (with you doing the same) and one of you being mage while the other is the priest. Using that strategy you can IAE grind your way from 1-60 in a week or two, while still playing some on your main. When you are done, just switch up. Ta-Da, 60 main and 2 60 alts.Kuja wrote:I have five characters on each, my main, and alt to play while my main gets some rest, and three more to play around with when I'm bored or want to tnker with something new.
Misc Tip: Give some random high-level greens/medium blues that you find in Plaguelands/Winterspring to your guild enchanter. Trust me on this, especially if it is a low-pop server. I used to be an enchanter, and anyone who tossed me an occasional high-green or blue got an enormous automatic discount on enchants. Hell, I cut 400 gold off of Crusadering someone's UForce because he gave me some blues to D/E when we were low level.

400 gold for Crusader? Damn, dude. On TN it's rare to see it hit 300.Misc Tip: Give some random high-level greens/medium blues that you find in Plaguelands/Winterspring to your guild enchanter.

Ooh, I love the designwork in that game . Screenshots are excellent!

It's crazy how many people scream for pally heals when you have dick mana to heal them with and are off-tanking two massive bosses.Kuja wrote:I have a mage ATM and when I delete my warrior due to worthlessness, I plan on making a priest.

Well, it has been supplanted by higher enchants these days, and is way more common. Back in the day when there were only a few dozen 60s, crusader went for 700g. I was, in fact, the only one on my server to have it for three months or so. Plus, enchants of all flavours go for more on low-pop servers. I used to be able to get 5-7g for +3 dam enchants.Kuja wrote:400 gold for Crusader? Damn, dude. On TN it's rare to see it hit 300.
Indeed. I can handle things if they don't get too hairy, but then I start hearing "OH SHIT MORE TROLLS" and I can pretty much kiss things goodbye.Ar-Adunakhor wrote:It's crazy how many people scream for pally heals when you have dick mana to heal them with and are off-tanking two massive bosses.
Though really, two paladins working in tandem can be a scary thing to watch. I had a Maraudon group three members at the Princess before even bringing her to half health, but me and the other paladin managed to whittle her all the rest of the way down (and we were both a level below her).

Oh, the memories you just brought back.Kuja wrote:Indeed. I can handle things if they don't get too hairy, but then I start hearing "OH SHIT MORE TROLLS" and I can pretty much kiss things goodbye.
Never had a pally, but priest feel much the same way in those situations. They, at least, have a chance to turn the fight around if they are good at their job.
Wow, pallys have been seriously beefed up. The only thing they used to be able to do was bubblehearth, but what you are talking about is some real power. Melee vs Princess used to be a massive death sentence without a war to tank. I hear they have some things to build threat now, too, but just no taunt?Kuja wrote:Though really, two paladins working in tandem can be a scary thing to watch.

By the way, I assume they fixed it... but just in case, I'll tell you anyway. Watch out for falling through the floor in Mara. The two places it can happen are the big giant up near the top (I forget his name. Gravel, maybe?) and Princess. Princess's hits when she does the circular stomp-waves, and Gravel's when he flings the big boulder.
Yeah, but really, there's little you can do when a mage turns left instead of right and aggros an extra four elites.Ar-Adunakhor wrote:Oh, the memories you just brought back.

No, no taunt, but paladin stats are excellent across the board and they can really beef up any area they damn well please. Paladins just generate a lot of threat through their Seals and Judgements (not to mention excorcisms when you're dealing with demons) so they can become scary casters or tankers. During the fight with Princess I went through...I think it was four mana potions keeping the other pally swinging while she tanked.Kuja wrote:Wow, pallys have been seriously beefed up.

Avalanche, I think you mean, and yeah that's been fixed a long time now.

Was this a PUG or clan? Because, honestly, stupidity like that in a clan group would have earned far more from me than that.
Wow, they made them into a real class. I never thought I would see the day. Have Shamans been beaten with the nerf stick, shot with nerf-darts, and fallen out of the suck tree and hit every branch on the way down, yet? If they have, (and thereby been made into a balanced PvP class) I hereby declare that Hell has frozen over.Kuja wrote:No, no taunt, but paladin stats are excellent across the board and they can really beef up any area they damn well please.

Lucky. There used to be three places. One by either the ship or the hut, one by the waterfall, and one near the causeway/darkirons.Kuja wrote:Avalanche, I think you mean, and yeah that's been fixed a long time now.

Also, if you jump off the rightside elevator in TN and hit the liftpole in the right spot, (about 2/3-3/4 of the way up) you can slide inside it and shoot people on top of the TN base without being able to be damaged yourself.
Pick-up. It happened in Zul'Farrak and to be fair to the mage, that was his only major screw-up of the entire run.Ar-Adunakhor wrote:Yeah, about the only thing you can do there is hope you are a pally/rogue and bubble/vanish.

Well, Hell is still hot in that regard. If anything, shamans have become even more difficult to deal with than they were six months ago when I started playing. Frost shock has a ridiculously short timer on it now and the totems aren't affected by AOE (by far my biggest complaint) and they (the totems) have been beefed up for healing and damage. Not to mention they can interrupt spellcasting the way a rogue can. I can hold my own against three horde in my bracket, but I can't fight a shaman of my own level, they absolutely run roughshod over me.Wow, they made them into a real class.

Ah well, you can expect mistakes in PUGs. Does not make them any more fun when they happen, though.Kuja wrote:Pick-up. It happened in Zul'Farrak and to be fair to the mage, that was his only major screw-up of the entire run.
Be glad you aren't a mage or priest. Everything that you are experiencing as a paladin is magnified many times as those classes. Grounding totems suck up offensive spells cast at the shaman, earthshock gives you a 6-second cooldown on all sphere abilities, frostshock keeps you from running and rapes your health, and they can beat you to a pulp in melee due to your lack of armor and their windfury totems.Kuja wrote:Well, Hell is still hot in that regard.

Anyway, I liked your screenshots. Toss up some more whenever you feel like it, paladins who can actually fight something are an exotic rarity to me. Maybe one of your guild bringing down Ony next time, eh?

Well, haven't got anything recent for myself (finally got my fast mount!), but I do have a selection of pics I like.

here's some pics of my pally (it's a female because that's untraditional for the Silver Hand)

Looking at the Necropolis near Stormwind
I don't got any decent pics of the rest of my chars.
