Haven't twinked since WOTLK and have some questions for you folks.

Grandfathered
I haven't played this bracket since Vanilla (spent most of my time in 39/49/70 since then). I've been lurking around for a couple days (account finally active, huzzah!) and I have most of the basics down but had a couple questions still. Sorry if this is the wrong place, I can move it.

Are battlegroups still a thing? If I play on my home server (Skullcrusher-US) will I get queued with all xp off characters (obviously only US for me) or only those in my battlegroup? I'd like to be able to take the time to properly gear up my character (but still play because I'm impatient as hell!) rather than transfer/roll some where and regret not finishing gear.

How is the horde/alliance distribution? I've heard it's pretty even but just wanted to get this forum's thoughts on it. I don't want to join the overpopulated side.

What classes are strong, but not ridiculously OP and boring (looking at you BM monks)? Right now I'm thinking arms warrior because I have all of the heirlooms for it but I also have all of the leather heirlooms and most of the other ones. Considering a druid because feral is strong and I could also play boomkin/resto if that got dull.

What's the deal with 20 vs. 29? I know starter accounts can only reach 20 but is there any reason to stay 20 rather than go to 29 if you have a real account?

What enchants are available to 29s? I see people with gift/breath of ___ so I know those for rings/neck but I'm not sure what other enchants are "best".

Thanks!
 
Some people play 20 because they like that it's more challenging but in reality 29 is just way better (Plus they get glyphs)
Gift of Vers, Crit, Haste, etc. are the best chants for rings, neck, and cloak
The rest of the chants will be up to you and your preference (I'd recommend using Tuskarr's Vitality on your boots because of the run speed increase)
At the moment the horde side seems to have more player than Alli (Correct me if I'm wrong)
If your looking for strong but not insanely op then you could go enhancement, arms warrior, mages, Windwalker Monk, combat rogue, hunter.....anything besides BM or feral haha
 
Thanks for the info! Any ideas on what server to transfer to or if I can play with everyone in the bracket from one server?

I leveled a warr with the plan to play an arms warr so I think I'll stick with him. Side not, how easy it to level a character from 1-x now?! I was shocked at how fast it was.

Do you have any experience with gearing/enchanting warrs? I have the basics down I think but I'm open to some input on vers vs. crit on ring/neck and strength/stam on other places. Also, would I have to use a higher level char to apply the enchants on some gear (gloves for instance)? Or can I just slap it on a vellum and send it to my twink?
 
Run speeds don't stack in next patch. Don't forget to turn off xp. I'd recommend rerolling on Dragonmaw as Departure lounge is offering funding and is extremely active

Are they horde or alliance? I don't need any funding but just looking for a server/battle group where i can get some games!
 
With looms you can get from 1-29 in a day if you really wanted to haha
You can add my Battletag and I'll help you out if you want it's Apeck#1622
 
yeah, apeck, i just did 1-29 in 6 hours. unfortunately, i wasn't paying attention and after hitting 29 decided to finish Gnomer for a charged gear. i wasn't expecting to hit 30 after Thermaplugg...

thinking of making one horde and one alliance for now since gold isn't really an issue. i can transfer to whatever server after i get a feel for the bracket. thanks for the help guys!
