Am I doing something wrong?
Hello there, i started playing this game for the first time ever 2-3 days ago. I know the popularity of 3.3.5 version or 3.3.5a or whatever its name is, but i wanted to start from the beginning, so i chose the Burning Crusade Outland realm. I created a new character, a priest. I played a lot of RPG games and always went for warriors or rogues, especially rogues. I wanted to play a different character from what i was used to be playing, and boy i was wong. I don't know what was the worst decision: creating a priest or downloading this game in the first place. Let me start from the beginning and tell you why i'm mad, tilted and upset beyond beliefs right now. Like i was saying, i played a lot of RPGs or MMORPGs, but i never, ever in my life felt so disapointed about an RPG, and i wouldn't, for the love of God, even think or dare to think that i would feel this way playing the most hyped RPG game ever. Why? I'll tell you why.
First of all, the character moves so slow it takes me 5 minutes to go from Abbey whatever that is, i started as a human to Eastvale Camp or Cairn Lake. 5. You take this quest here, then go at the end of the map, then return, it was so boring i was tilted to oblivion. It's absurd, why do i have to be level 30 or 40 or whatever level it takes to have a damn horse and it costs 30g. I have 20 silver until level 16 (the level my ''lovely'' priest is right now). How in the world i'm i supposed to make that much money to buy my wheels? Travelling on foot miles for quests isn't fun, never was, and i was never the fan of such nonesense. At least give me a level 10-15 temporary mount to use a number of minutes, or with a cooldown, i don't know. Just don't let me reach level 16 in 3 days 'cuz i travel with the speed of a cockroach. Jesus.
My second disapointment is: in what game, ffs, 3 or 4 level 6, level 5 monsters kill you if you have level 10 or 2 level 9 monsters or level 10 monsters obliterate you if you are 16? What? I can't fight multiple enemies at once? You tell me that the most hyped game ever let you fight 1v1 level 16 vs level 9 and the fight takes 30 seconds? What? And why do i have only 20 silver? Because i needed to upgrade my spells to survive, and an ability with ''gianormous'' damage and speed cast like priest's Smite, which takes 2.5 seconds to cast (a nightmare if you fight 2 enemies, it takes you more like 9-10 seconds, which is absurd considering is my main source of damage) costs damn much to upgrade, like 3 silver, plus my other abilities that need to be upgraded like heals or that poison thingy and so on. Not that i have something to do with my damn 20 silver, because i can't buy a single decent, not good, decent weapon or armor, that is not trash. The NPGs sell only garbage, and the good gear that i get to drop like armors and swords that have way higher damage and defense than my garbage, can't be equiped...I am level 16 and my 3-11 dmg mace does like 7 damage a hit... Yup, sooo fun. I'm having a blast. And the third one, probably the must tilting and disturbing ever: why on Earth i'm i getting f-ing interrupted by enemies when i fight? So my best dmg ability has 3 second cast time, only deals 1/5 enemy hp, and he interrupts me twice during a cast, or he kicks me last millisecond? What? For the n-th time: W H A T ? I have never, ever in my life whitnessed such nonesense in games that i played. And i played Tera, Aion, GW2, DCUO, Blade and Soul, Four Story, Nostale even goddamn Runes of Magic or the hated Metin 2. The last one, which everyone call trash, at least gives you the opportunity to kill 3 level 6 monsters if you are level 5, not get mowed down by 2 or 3 monsters, which are 3-4 levels behind my level, it's absurd.
Also, the lack of AoE spells is tilting me. How i'm i supposed to level up and do quests easily (easily cuz im low level, not that i want the game to be easy) if i can't even do the Manhunt quest at level 16, because 1 level 10 monster and 2 level 8 monsters destroy me? For me, it's the biggest deception and disapointment i had over a game since No Man's Sky. I didn't even dare to think that i would encounter such nonsense in wow, the most hyped RPG in history. And why i the hell my gear has to be 25% damaged if i resurrect? And omg, i almost forgot this one: why my damage have to be 75% cut down and my defenses also cuz i died in a game with no AoE spells, no combos, damn cast time, interruptions and knockbacks interrupting my spells at level 15? That is straight garbage.
Please, guys, i am here to learn the ways. Tell me what i'm doing wrong and what i have to do. Also, this thread doesn't have to be removed for the reason '' OMG this noob OMG''. I just want to know your opinion on this and help me get through, i actually like the game and don't feel like deleting it, but my God i can't play 2 more days like i was the last 2 cuz i'll lose my mind. THANK YOU.
