Specific Leveling QuestionFollow

First a little lot backstory...

Don't read if your going to bleed all over the thread about how I'm not wanted here ;_;

SpoilerWell I am a WoW veteran. I never put effort COULD put effort into alt in my life. The highest I've gotten a second character is 10 I think, though that number seems a tad to high.

I played a warrior 1-77 with around... /played 100+ days I kid you not. You'll notice I said 1-77 not 1-80. At the near end of TBC (The dawn of WoTLK) I grew tired of tanking and wanted to DPS. So I traded my character for an 70 rogue which I instantly fell in love with. (This was about a month before the release of WoTLK) Months later I would sell the rogue and wish to come back to my Warrior.

Through a very ironic set of events I recovered my warrior by accident (Sent in photo ID and sh*t to prove it was me to get my security question and what not) but forgive me I digress. I get my warrior back and I install the xpack and start leveling. I'm destroying everything PvE-wise and... mostly PvP-wise. It was around then I find out how OP DKs are and complaining lead me to a second trade. At 77 I traded my warrior for a decked out 80 rogue, a decked out (for its level) 70 warlock and a decked out (for its level) 70 mage.

Once again I had the joy of a rogue and it was great. I quickly got full PvP and what not but like before I grew tired of the rogue and lustfully desired my warrior back. I contacted the guy with my account (We spoke on vent sometimes) and thinking I was gonna steal my warrior back he took his account back but never gave me back mine. He had made it with a Battle.net account so I couldn't get it back by normal means.

After some typing I got the account locked (By accident) since he didn't have my name on the Battle.net account. I was asked ONCE AGAIN to send in photo ID among other things to prove I was the owner but I felt it was a waste and shrugged it off. Glad he wouldn't be able to use it at the very least.

Months pass and the alure of WoW shines my way again with news of a new expansion. I have long since lost the email on how to get my account back and I'm now worried about other sh*t not gonna say for the sake of time. So I call a friend who I know plays WoW and asks if he could level me an account up (I can't stand leveling. I did it once on my warrior could never stand doing it again) and lucky for me hes quiting WoW and hell hes giving me his account.

He came into WoW on a rogue but couldn't stand the game and quit at 61. Now I'm going to give it a shot and see if I can't stand leveling the rogue and make it my own. I never NEVER leveled as a rogue. Both times I traded for a rogue they were max level.

Currently I am away from my own computer and shall not be playing WoW for a week so in that time I thought hell I might as well look for some leveling guide for rogues so I can be better prepared. My search came up empty. Sure their are leveling guides but I can't find a decent one for me.


So I ask you, rogues or Allakhazam (@#%^ sound like an RPer their but I ain't changin it) whats a good way to level from 61-80. I know all the skills but have no idea the specs or gear I should pick up (From quests)

So throw me a bone please :D

All you need to know is that you need to spec for Mutilate. Trust me, you will have fun 3-shotting everything that crosses your path.

It doesn't change the fact that you "should get off your lazy *** and level your own character." Perhaps if you leveled your 'rogue' yourself, you'd have a better understanding on what gear you should be looking for and what specs are the best out there at this time.

I can definitely say that I know all of the skills as well for a lock... it's called reading the tooltips of each spell. That doesn't mean I know anything about it.

And to be nice, level in Hellfire and Zangarmarsh until you get to 68, and then go to Northrend and choose which starter zone you'd like to level in. There really isn't a guide specific for rogues. I'd recommend Howling Fjord though as the quests you get for UK would be better than Nexus (minus a few that will give you decent gear), but at least in UK, you can get other stuff that aren't quest related.

Hmmm...? After reading that mut. spec is best for leveling I've decided I'm going to go mut. spec... Where did I say



I was mearly telling him that I had never tried mut. spec before because I'm a swords man. Swords may not be the best for leveling so I wouldn't want to use them. At max level I need no advice from anyone but for leveling I haven't the foggiest the ideal spec.

I don't quite understand how me saying I'm a swords man makes me 'nuby'. I was being friendly and saying more than just "Thanks for the tip." It seems friendliness ain't a big part o' Allakhazam but it doesn't really matter. After being treated so aggressively I doubt I'll come back to the forums once I start playing again (Not that anyone gives a **** xD)


Also Thomas I'm going to repeat myself a little when I say this but unlike you I don't ask for advice and then just disregard it. For you to even assume I'd do something so childish leads me to believe your a twelve-year-old (Forive me if I'm wrong I'm sure your just another twenty-oner. Thats the age kiddies seem to pick these days)

Well I doubt I'll come back to the forums after this post since I've learned enough. I know the leveling spots seeing as how I did it with my warrior just didn't know the specs.


You can flame me all you want to for this post but don't think "you won" because I don't reply... I'm not coming back to the forums most likely xD

Hey kid, let's be friends.


Here's me being the spelling police. English Mother@#%^er.... Do you speak it?



He said nubby, not nuby.

Saying that you are a 'swords man' is nubby because swords are generally regarded as sh*t for levelling compared to mutilate. Combat swords used to be the standard, but it is no longer.



Usually, people figure out, from their levelling specs, how they want to play at 80. Or, they just read something like... i don't know, the most popular specs for pvp and/or pve specced rogues and go from there.



Oh my god, you broke the terms of service of the game this board is based on, and people don't like you? I haven't the foggiest why.



Why? (I think you meant rogues OF Allakhazam.)



Wait what? When did Thomas ask for advice and then disregard it?

Ionowaturtalkenbout.



You asked for a 'levelling guide for rogues' which sounds like a guide specifically tailored to the rogue's class, with examples like 'Hey, you can abuse Shadowstep (which you shouldn't have as levelling spec) to teleport to things you would normally have to waste time running up to stairs to get to, so you should always grind (which you should never do as a rogue, questing/instances are always faster) in places where you can save time by using shadowstep!'. Really what you wanted though was a spec for levelling, as you already know how to level with your warrior.

Seriously, what kind of dolt needs any of the information in a 'rogue levelling guide'? Spend 40 seconds using the search tool on Alla, EJ, or any other WoW site of your choice until you see someone who looks mildly intelligent say 'You should spec THIS for levelling WotLK!'

I'm kind of skipping around your last post here, but when I see such juicy pieces of horrific stupidity, I can't help myself.



Well, you kinda disregarded the advice that people gave that you should get your own goddamn account because you're cheating and risking getting yourself banned. Again you meander into stupid topics (in this case the age of Thomas, who you can't seem to attack simply because you likely have no response to other people's sound (which entails valid) logic) because your brain can't decide whether you should go do something else or try to attack a longtime member of the Allakhazam community.

Again I will restate that you broke WoW's rules and asked stupid questions, which, if you have ever been on Alla rogue forums before, you would know is a great way to get yourself flamed.

You should be glad that Theo didn't smell this thread or you'd be getting a much worse beating than this.


OOOOOO I WON
