I've noticed this as well. I'm hoping that Blizzard is wanting to WOW us with the new content that will be coming out around summer time. I understand that concept of this expansion is to lay down a base to build off of. However, they have to keep everyone interested. It would actually be quite nice if they were to sell a character template where your armor look is customizable. It worked in the demised Hells Gate game where you could get Ink Kits to dye your armor.

Agreed, I hate how everything looks the same. You can take a guy decked out in Naxx gear and you can barely tell them apart from the level 71 in greens sometimes. Hell, some of the stuff looks like it belongs on a lvl 10 character. I swear I saw a rogue yesterday in decent level 80 gear but at first glance I thought it was a bank alt.

It is indeed true that some/most of the current gear in WotLK is basically reused and recolored.

BUT, you forget that with the content patches coming up for WotLK (which would contain a number of new instances with each patch, including the infamous Ice Crown ((Not sure if that's what it is called)))

With the content patches coming out, you'll see plenty of gear to look forward too. Think 'Sunwell', when it was released, everyone was 'WHOA!' at the new gear.

Excuse me if my reply was somewhat vague, I'm feeling a bit... woozy :D

Ribs' Guide to Addons!

This is a good article. It introduces some of the pieces of a UI for people starting out in building one. Personally, I use a lot of "advanced" addons like X-perl and Bartender3, so I prefer Call of the Elements (COE) for my Shaman. I am not sure if FloTotem would work with my setup. It hasn't been updated in a while. I wish the Shaman Totem addons would make totems into something like a class bar (such as auras for Paladins or shapeshifts for Druids). I can do something like that with COE, but it is a "faked" setup made by placing the COE bars over the class bar. But I wish for a lot of things. Maybe I should just develop one....

Questhelper has been abandoned and causes so many ingame issues its unreal . Last version has awful memory leaks and it breaks lots of quests and also crashes the game to desktop .

If your going to recommend addons then pick ones that arent full of bugs and are actively maintained.

Fact is it works for me and about 90 percent of it's users as far as I can tell (My entire guild has it).

Your question confuses me.

TourGuide is far superior to QuestHelper in every way. And when paired with TomTom, QH becomes completely irrelevant.

"Keep your mods upgraded."
So far QuestHelper has violated this addon commandment every patch. Just my two cents.

Questhelper stopped working right on my PC and i found it was no longer updated. I installed Carbonite Quest and I love it.

You need a new gf, one who plays WoW. Forget BG gear for PvE, no matter what class. The rewards from quests and rep grinds are always better for PvE, no matter what spec.
