Tankazons used to be EXTREMELY common... they ARE best done using spears or javelins but withon anything but fend for the spear/javelin ideal.
But in pre-LoD especially they were very common because of the rarety of good bows(best you could get was a rare gothic which weren't common lol)

could be... never know! Disagreeasin would be one that you intended to make as one kind but turned into the other kind despite your best efforts? or perhaps a mind-blast assassin would be a disagreeasin, because she makes enemies disagree aobut what to do with her and that's what I HEARD about he ladder, but so far it's all hearsay... not definite.

1.10 makes a huge difference in the game, massive! For example, I am making a hammerdin(paladin using blessed hammer) and it's seeming to be very effective(of course, for later on, I'm also getting vigor and charge, as the synergies work nicely in those... Vigor provides 20% to charge and 15% to Blessed Hammer... so very nice combination

No, it's linked FROM the Valar Guild site, but it is on it's own. What I meant by directly affiliated with is where the forum is just a subsection on the site... like a lot of author's fansite forums...

Aye, it's not doing too badly Especially considering it's just a side-forum, not actually affiliated directly with any other website... as in it's not actually within another website like most of the really big forums I've been to... it's merely linked to from our site...

I believe I'll be on Shattered Hand for most of my characters...
*edit* but that's a pvp server so... doubt I'll see many of you there, unfortunately...

Elatan, people pking lower levels isn't very common... I only got camped once, and it wasn't long before others of my faction came to help once I'd alerted them that it was happening... also, it's very easy to escape a 'camping' situation because you have a quite large radius around your corpse in which you can respawn...
Eonwe.. .there are several quests where killing NPCs of other factions is required(I've helped repel one of the Orc quests of that sort before)
And as for the 'contested/enemy territories' thing... if you look at the game... Starting as a NE, the THIRD area you venture into will be contested. That happens around level 20... but contested/enemy territory means nothing on a pve server, because enemies can't attack you...
I'm not big on pvp, generally, however... there are times when removing it will get in the way of the game's design... this is one of those times I think... the pvp servers allow for the story to progress as it was designed... this is a war... as, for example, a Human Paladin... if you were to stumble upon an undead character, on pve server you can't do anything to them... that doesn't make sense... any paladin, by the story(especially after Arthas), would lose his vestments if he did NOTHING against undead encroaching on his peoples' lands... yet on a pve server, that's exactly what you have to do unless they have /pvp active or they hit an npc...

and that if you WANT to have the choice of pvp, you have to type /pvp every 5 minutes... lol

by the way... in retail, will the main thing be on pvp or pve servers(seeing as pvp in this game is still within our guild's lines... as it's actually faction vs faction, not just random player vs player)
I was on a pvp server for the OB(I don't know if any of the rest of you were) and it really did add a nice element to it... while you were questing you had to watch out for random Horde people out there... but you still couldn't fight the people on your own faction(except in duels but you don't actually die in those, so they don't count) which is good. I like the team vs team aspect... so I would cast my personal vote for the pvp servers(I think it makes more sense within the game to have the pvp aspect than to not have it)
