Not that the old thread is terribly old, but I'd just like to get an update from those who will definitely be joining the PvE guild in retail.

If you could post comments etc. in a seperate thread to keep this one clean that'd be good (i.e. only 1 post per person).

For main characters only, please.

Warrior/Dwarf
Herbalism/Alchemy or Mining/Blacksmithing.

Won't be doing Engineering, was useful for Hunter to make guns/ammo/scopes but not really for me. Alchemy looks the most attractive for me atm but we'll see :)

Not sure about race (high probablity of NE), mage.
Profession wise, was thinking Herbalism/alchemy as well, but seems most people go that way.

Gnome/Warlock
Miner/Engineer


But if noone will go Tailoring/Enchanting I could try that out, instead of Mining/Engineering

Might try a Priest/Tailor/****

Be an engineer so I can continue as an Armoursmith :D

There's some nice headgear for warlocks that you need engineering to make and use, so I wouldn't mind being an engineer. But we also need a tailor and an enchanter (Daydrain)

Gromagrim
Tuesday, 8th February 2005, 15:22
We didn't struggle for Tailors in Beta, I don't think we will in release - Tarlin and possibly Hyggemissen should be tailoring

We onl really need one enchanter for the whole guild, so we can ferry any items over to him/her - in Beta I must have given 50+ items for disenchant alone, better to concentrate all that stuff for one person

--------------

I see alot of posts about people saying if he goes Armour smithing/blacksmithing im doing this insted.

It seems most of you do not know that most tradeskills go in to a tree later on.

Leatherworking has Elemental - Tribal - Dragonscale once you passed 225.

It's worth for you guys to look into it and pick a line of work, having a guild crafter rooster is not a bad thing. So that we have one primary dude doing fx. Elenemtal, one on Tribal and one on dragonscale. That way we can have highlevel crafters in all branches, and we can have support crafters (might be alts) to do stuff while the prime dudes are offline (they will ofcause at some point also become masters in one line)

Also if anyone wants to duel geather its not suchs a bad thing :)

If I play a Hunter again I will take Skinning and Leatherworking (the Track Beasts ability has an obvious advantage here).

If I play a Rogue I will take Mining and Engineering.

If I take a Warlock, Priest or Mage I will go for Tailoring and Enchanting.

If I take a Warrior or Paladin I will go for Mining / Blacksmithing.

If I take a Druid I will go for Herbalism / Alchemy.

Granted thats not exactly solid info but its better than nothing. I certainly intend to have 2 or 3 characters. One of which will be a Mage / Warlock or Priest.

At the moment I am leaning towards playing a Hunter, although I am worrying about the usefulness in high level instances.

Its good to see someone that has made up his mind prior to release ^^

Nearly right. Axe/Mace/Sword are further branches of Weaponsmithing, All requiring a lvl 60 (? - not sure on this, wasn't a weaponsmith) quest to acheive. I know both the Mace and Sword quests end in Strat, as I've seen the plans.

Armoursmithing has no further branches, and was my proffession during Beta. At first, I found it gimped compared to Weaponsmithing - less recipes, and the weaponsmith weapons sell for ridiculous amounts (So much so I was feeding stuff to Ironman for him to make them for me to sell :D). But I found a couple of well-hidden Armoursmith quests that taught me a couple fo really cool items in the last couple of weeks, so that's piqued my enthusiasm for the skill come retail.

My initial inability to settle on this choice wasn't down the lack of information, but rather my concern that the guild may be missing a tradeskill (engineering) but hopefully I'll be able to take the skill I'd like to do, and still benefit RL

I'll get Engineering on my warlock for sure, now that I see we got plenty of enchanters and tailors... Hunters rejoice, I shall make you nifty little scopes!!

Hi..

NE / Druid
Skinning / Leatherworking

Changed player/proff. cause as i could see noone else have chosen the Druid..
And the good thing(i hope :D ) is that i have never played him :eek:
So it will be a whole new story/world to discover...
Now my only probl. is if i should go with the gimmick i read in here about taking a trip to a new land so i could play with the "little" people=dwarf and gnomes hehehe...but we will see ;)
