I read an interesting post about how Twinks will be losing a lot of enchants come 3.1 on General today. It seems a lot of people actually really hate Twinks! Although I don't have a twink myself, I always liked the idea of maxxing out a char at level 19 or maybe 29.. get all the best gear and enchants. One thing I like about it is you won't have to do a lot of work on them when a new expansion hits. Another thing is, nobody should have you outgeared (by much anyways), so that's one less factor to worry about when testing your meddle.Some twink-backers in the thread say that the enchants, which are mostly stamina-boosting, help the battles last a bit longer and help people from getting 2-shot by the burst damage. Without much low-level BG experience I can't say one way or the other but that claim does seem to make a lot of sense. In any case I still think I'll get a twink made and see how it is. I planned to get my Banker-guy rogue up to level 18 for those "sprints" from the mailbox to the AH and back. One more level isn't going to hurt. =)
Hehe, I rolled a mage solely to get blink for those mailbox runs as well - and then just.... kept leveling it, lol.
ReplyDeleteNice blog you've got here, I really like it. I'm going to add you to my blogroll, if that's alright with you!
<3,
your fellow wow playing resto druid ^^
Thanks! I added your blog too, which is quite nice. I'd like to get closer to the 1-post-per-day pace I had before but splitting time with EvE Online right now and not yet back into a guild.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why people "hate" twinks. Technically I suppose all my alts are twinks since they get hand-me-downs from my main (and more senior twinks). They call it twinking, I call it "nothing goes to waste". Taters/Tomaters, I guess.
ReplyDeleteIf it's any consolation to them, I won't be contaminating their nasty ol' BGs, so let's all group hug.
