1. Reject modernity, embrace tradition. (Icecrown)

    Wanna go back to an easier time? Back when 19 wasn't all about sitting in BG's? Maybe a time before STV was infested with 80s? I say reject modernity, embrace the roots, the place where every character starts and where some of them also end up.

    This is officially me trying to sell you on making a level 1 twink on Icecrown.

    Why would you ever want to make a level 1 twink, you ask me?

    Well, I think it's incredibly fun. The lower you go in terms of levels, the better each statpoint scales. This means that every upgrade counts, BiS armor can be the difference between one and two armor. Compared to for example, a level 19, it's also WAY less time consuming and cost intensive. If you want to get into twinking and get a decent character quick, level 1 is the way to go.

    "But Gravy, I have three bis 19's with double AGM, one 60 and one 70, why would I ever want to start a new character?"
    Because it's fun. 60 has limitations, 70 has limitations and god knows 19 has limitations. 1 has even more limitations, but with those limitations comes endless freedom. What can a level 1 actually kill? I've seen level 1's kill mobs in Burning Steppes. What can a level 1 actually duel? My highest duel is in the 20's. What enchants are actually bis for your class? Does hit matter on a character that will only hit once in a blue moon regardless? Level 1 has a lot of fun theorycrafting, is what I'm trying to say.

    Mostly I make this post because level 1's have always been lonely. A few brave souls out there have tried to make it relatively active and all have failed. MY hope is that someone reads this and goes "You know what, that sounds weird enough to me." and comes hang out with us in Crossroads and in Goldshire.

    We're a few people playing, most of them gearing and I don't know of any other active level 1 bis or close to bis twinks apart from myself.

    If you're out there, playing alone or want to get into level 1's, please hit me up. Have a question about gear, enchants or anything else, please hit me up.

    Sincerely yours, Gravy.

  2. You know what, that sounds gravy enough to me.

    But I agree with Gravy on this. I've made a level 1 twink recently and damn, that's the most fun I've had in a while and people are blown away when they see what a lvl1 can do.

    To anyone that's interested, see ya at Crossroads.

  3. You are just 5 years too late. and lvls 1 are mostly dicks from what i've seen, no one would want to tag along

    Everyone playing on this server is 10 years too late by that standard. Sounds like you have a lot of bad personal experiences and no real empiricm to back it up.

  5. I've seen level 1's kill mobs in Burning Steppes.
    Eh, really?

    This is from a very old guild event where people in an 80 guild were trying out level 1's for the first time. It took a few, but yes. 1's can absolutely raid down a target of that level.

    To lazy to get AGMs unless they are getting added to the store.
    Not bad at all! Hope to hang out with you ingame! :)


  8. Thats a very nice twink! Hopefully we get to see you on icecrown or vice versa! :)

  9. Why that chest tho when you can get one that has armor on it?

  10. Why that chest tho when you can get one that has armor on it?
    Because of the ilvl he got better enchant on it.

  11. Because of the ilvl he got better enchant on it.
    No he gets the exact same enchant as I do and there is no other enchant superior to this one.

    Now to prove it ingame aswell.

    But ofc I have both, swapping to Haliscan Jacket when rune of warding runs out. Other than that, it's just for style when not pvping.
    One more thing, formal dangui have no durability therefore can't be destroyed, so was also useful for explorer achiev.
