Hello Sargeras, lately i've been debating on giving cata another try, last time i got to level 35 and gave up, wondering if right now is a good time to bother starting again, considering the 4.3.4 upgrade and no instances working yet, i'm mainly a pve player with very little interest in pvp, so should i start now or wait a while?
Some dungeons are already working.
Tol Vir
Stonecore
Zul??something
Grim Batol(at least it looks like it)
1 reworked low lvl dungeon it was south of undercity
and few others.
+1 new each day
I would honestly wait because leveling up at the moment is very difficult due to the number of bugged quests in addition to lack of flight path access. Level 81-85 is especially difficult since it ends up being a grind fest. Then after that considering that you are a fresh player won't have access to gold which will be the primary way of gearing up as faction reputation rewards are not something you can acquire at this point. Your main method would be to get carried a lot in BGs and accumulate Honor until you have enough to convert for JP and buy gear. As a fellow PVE player myself you really won't have much content to access outside of the listed dungeons above and BoT (which has ended up with more bugs) and then you can't exactly farm older instances for transmog gear or other fun stuff. I could go on but long story short this just isn't a very good time due to the transition phase still ongoing.Quote:

but since you're donor the first wont really affect you, so i would go ahead. i had no problem leveling 80-85 in northrend
nope...cata is bad, things dont work, youre gonna get mad over the first 2Quote:

thanks for the replies guys, think i'll at least download it and try it for a few hours, if it's to bad i'll just leave it until it's updated some more, biggest reason i'm gonna try it out is i just got loremaster on wotlk, and tbh i'm very bored now without something to work forward to.
edit: any race suggestions? i'm fairly experienced with a hunter in wotlk, debating on doing the same in cata, what race would be best on horde side?
i dont hear enough ppl bring it up mostly everyone says human but u really only get a little extra damage/healing from the extra pve trinket nightelf shadowmeld in arena if used correctly can literally out right win the game or even act as a whole second pvp trinket avoiding cc's. its not that hard to juke casted cc's such as poly and lock fear with it. some people are able to juke instant casts like hoj and stuff but i am not that good.
also say you are in a frost nova as a warrior or something about to get shatter combo'd you can just meld and tell that mage to go f himself. the way you look i think doesnt mater as it is not that difficult to model change your character to something else.
If its PVE wouldn't orc necessarily have the best racial due to having a CD on use, plus if you're hunter they gain a slight buff.Quote:

What about the new content in cata?? i quit a few months back with most of my characters at ilvl 359 so start again or wait??
that last part can be said for people with prior characters on here, but people with FRESH 85s are kind of stuck in the 'no gear' part.Quote:

if you want to PVP here, great, you can just BG for gear. if you want to PVE you're gonna spend awhile just farming gear before you can do anything
