Warcraft Cataclysm
Tatsujin:
Nope. Start now and get to 80. Those that think going inside Cataclysm raids with their ICC gear, you'll get creamed seconds into the fight. Cata Heroics have a minimum requirements of ilvl 333 blues. Greens will start replacing your gear around levels 83-85 if your end game ICC gear (tier 10.5 and 10.5 heroics). Just about any Cata blues will replace your items. The stats on them are crazy high. Example, crafted blue sword is a level 81 from blacksmithing with crazy passive DPS and top weapon damage of 1.9k and it will replace Shadowmourne, the best 2 hander in Wrath expansion. The next item I have seen is a 2 handed mace level 83 and has a top weapon damage of 2.8k. Do I need to go any further? Basically, high-end blues and crafted (beginner) epics are 2.5x the stats of ICC gear your wearing on each piece. That's what you need to have to start raiding or pvping.

Well i did not play the game for the pvp or for the raiding ...i have been a blizzard fan for all of my life from diablo 1 and warcraft to starcraft 2 and wow....i like their worlds their stories their lore in general...neverthel ess raiding is fun but of course not the whole meaning for someone to start the game

It's not too late to start wow. They made leveling so easy, you'll be at level cap in no time.

Yes, they've added a lot of nice features in Wrath. Cata will overhaul most features and add very nice textures to them. But what I really love about Cata is combining 10s and 25 man raids together so you don't have to do 10 separately from 25. Both share the same loot and achievements and what not. I can raid a dungeon Once and know that the loot is the same without worrying. I PvP a lot and I enjoy it very much.
We kicked ass yesterday. The first arena match we won we were on Vent. Then in the second arena match Vent crashed and we couldn't log on, so we did a total of 13 matches for 5s. Won 9 and lost 4.
I wonder what Rated BGs will be like. I'll go check it out now.

I played for like a year but eventually got really bored
For me its all about getting the best possible pve gear but that means doing the same raid week after week
I joined a good raiding guild with my housemate but they wanted to raid like ever night wipeing over and over again on the same bosses to clear icc 10 and 25, and its not even that fun doing it, trying to spam the right combinations of buttons to get that little bit of extra dps/agro/healing
In the end its like whats the point, once you have the gear then the only thing to do is the same raids again as that's the only thing worth doing
They need lots of spread out content at the top not just one raid you end up doing
At least there were 12 bosses in icc, i feel sorry for the people who had to do 5 totc bosses over and over again (well that was me at the start but it was just a quick run though as wotlk was nearly out)
