Noob help please!!!Follow

Hey everyone. i am new to warriors. a good friend on warcraft quit and gave me his account. i decided to start playig his 60 warrior, which i resently repeced to protection. is there any guides on what the hot keys should be?

Best advice.

Don't try and play a character straight up at a high level .. the levelling up process is there to teach you how to play the class.

Start a new warrior and work through it properly, without a doubt, the only way to go.

I had a level 24 hunter, when I went to my brother's house he had his 70 hunter on, and I decided that I would try out his eppiced out level 70... I was completely overwhelmed by what I saw on his screen. I didn't even want to play it, I was just completely overwhelmed by all the talents he had. That being said, I have a 70 warrior as well (even when my hunter was 24) and he was overwhelmed by all my stances and talents too (he was leveling an alt warrior). It wasnt until I got to about 35 or 40 that I felt comfortable playing his guy, but it seriously took forever to get used to all the bells and whistles he had. I do agree with the other posts here, but I think you should take your new warrior, if you feel so inclined, to a higher level, maybe 35 or 40. Switch your 60 warrior to arms or fury and keep your alt as a tank, to get a better feel for tanking, then when your 60 hits 70, switch to protection. You will get a good feel for tanking if you do this, IMO.

If you go the route of leveling a lower warrior to get a feel for things I would recommend stopping him at level 28, 38, or 48. One you get a feel for things you can use the other as a PvP "Twink" toon and then do your tanking/money grinding on the higher warrior.

This will get you the XP on how to use the class while still having a use for a 2nd warrior on your account.

On the other hand people who are found to buy/aquire high level toon tend to be blacklisted in big guilds. And to be honest I don't blame GMs for that.

A "fresh" lvl 70 "tank" in raid is the worst thing you can imagine...

If you decide to use the lvl 60 toon my advice is do not tank. You can learn how to DPS but learning tanking will probably make you qiut the game out of frustartion.

Still I belive that leveling process is fun - why should you skip it?

actually when i first started playing, it was on my friends 60 warrior. He let me play it a bit, told me when to best use what abilities and I learned from there. I did a lot of pvp and he even let me raid a couple times on it [not tank, although i did tank some ubrs and stuff on his char]. After realizing I like this game, I got my own account and leveled my own warrior. Thusly, I don't think that having to level a char from 0-whatever is really required. You need to first understand basic game mechanics and just read up on how warriors are played. Then just ask people for advice in certain situations that you don't understand and improvise as well. 70 is a completely different ballpark than 60 was. Also, you'll have 10 levels to realize wth you are doing and what you need help with.
