Why did you.....

original rogues didn't use 2 SF's, that was something that mostly came about right as we rolled into wotlk. old build sheets for BIS didn't have "must have 2 SF's"



because shadowfang was main-hand weapon until one of the last patches of tbc
 
I got into twinking when I was first leveling my main, every time I went into battlegrounds I saw these folks running about with glowing weapons and the same clothes as each other, decided to charge them and hamstring, just to get decimated. Which got me thinking, I need to get that good. Suffice to say I didn't, enchanted something like searing blade with icy wep. *cough* This was about the time fishing boots got taken away.
 
I couldn't figure out where to quest for lvl 11 . . .



1st twink - 19 hunter - got bored - wanted a real challenge - went to 10's (hunter/pally) - Now I have a 15 (hunter) as well. I like playing the lower levels of a bracket for luls and because it makes one far better player than sticking to 19's ---> Although playing a huntard does not . . . wait for it . . . necessarily require huge skill :eek:
 
when i started playing (back in vanilla), i hated twinking with my soul, because rogues smacked my face in every time i tried.. halfways trough BC, somebody told me you couldn't make a mage twink, because they would be ganked to pieces. so i had to try. =)
 
I rolled a rogue twink because when I was leveling my mage main i was always getting killed by them and i thought that twinking was the coolest shit in the world, so then i rolled one and have been having fun since. :D
 
I'm loving all of your stories, seems like a lot of you are a bit "old" when it comes to twinking. i joing the twinking bizznizz in early wrath so nice to here about BC. So do you guys like this sort of post? should i do more? let me know :)
 
yes, more of this is needed =)
 
Glad to here it :) I'll also post in other brackets so check in the 1-9 10-14 and 70-79 brackets. (i dont do other brackets atm so sorry for those of you 20-69!)
 
i rolled a sham cus early back in vanilla, when my main was around 35 i saw this awsome cow. shiny weps, hat etc. i decided to spend all my money on random pieces (were 9 back then) just to look like him, then someday a friend of mine gave me like 500g and i bought my evocation blade + 30sp, felt like heaven.



been playing sham since then, i love it because its a very underpower class atm and it's always fun to swap around talents. love being able to melee, cast and heal, all in the same char

I made a troll rogue because I thought their posture and glowy weapons were THE SHIT. However, I'll warn you that trolls don't look as cool when you're playing in comparison to when you are seeing them. My OCD kind of went crazy and I made many-a-remark about "Trolls would be so cool if they would just stand up straight and be tall and lanky". I think that is why I prefer night elfs now. ( I am a very cosmetic person about how my character looks, INTIMIDATION FACTOR FTW )
 
My very first twink was made probably just after BC hit, my main was still only lvl 54 and tbh lvling to 70 was not very appealing.



So i started a new toon, a night elf hunter, why? because i didnt know any better i didnt realise how op they were untill i got towards the end of my gearing.



Whilst lvling in goldshire there was this rogue with bright red "firey" looking swords so to speak, no matter how hard i tried he would destroy me over and over again, so i talked to him and that was when i first heard the term "twink". Naturally i searched the intorwebs and found a few sites that were a bit disturbing, but i found what i was looking for in the end.



Pushing the stats & gear limits of a low lvl character is what appealed to me i guess.



The memories this thread bring back is phenominal, like being ragged on in WSG for my +22intel staff, the +20spirit oom stick.



I miss those days.
 
I began twinking during vanilla when my best friend irl made a 19 rogue and I made a 19 warrior. In BC I rolled a hunter and priest. During wotlk I rerolled a hunter and have been playing it ever since. Twinking actually didn't seem appealing at first; I made fun of my friend who made a twink in vanilla for the longest time. Then when I finally made one and we began BGing (back in the same server bg era) I was instantly hooked :)
 
I rolled a shaman first because there is just a few of them in this bracket. Also because they are probably one of the only class that is fun to play and that require at least a bit skills and strategy compared to almost all the other classes in this bracket. I rolled elemental cause I like spellcasters :D. I have many other twinks that I never play cause theyre just dumb (My hunter and paladin)
 
Ran human mage with a human priest IRL m8, both lvl 16 at the time. He found some place in ashenvale with elite NPC's :O



He talked to them and suddenly we both were inside a house with 8 other folks.

Clueless as we were, we asked what it was, and was nicely surpriced it was a players vs players game, capture the flag/skull thing :)



One Human pally had purple glow in his sword and looked rly cool. We followed him.



We died asap vs some nasty red-named trolls and orcs with orange and white glowing swords (damn rogues)



few weeks after my m8 quitted wow. I remembered the most fun we had (the time with mage and priest in the battle) and learned about twinks. Due to awesome boreness I found the char I had closest to 19 and lvled it to 19 and whent for wsg to gain the blue stuff form the battlemaster ohh yer!.



It was a lvl 16 male Orc rogue called Dinkoman (named after a m8 of mine to provoke him)



Later it dinged since I fucked up at the gear and first at like 90% found out about fish hat /agm etc. /fail



Then made ahuntard since one of the only real challenges I felt I had in the noob wsg's were from a huntard called Peachy. xD

Ever since I kept my hunt, but later I made druid, two more rogues, two mages, priest, warrior, warlock, two shammans, and now a pally.
 
I rolled a 19 twink rogue back in the cyclone battlegroup, vanilla. I couldn't get anywhere close to BiS when I stopped leveling for bg's because my exp was so far into the level. It ate away at me until I deleted her (rip tigera). I then rolled a new warrior twink, boomsta on azjol-nerub. I was the second twink on my server to get both fishing hat and boots (rip boots). I loved being a powerful sword and board, wielding my shadowfang enchanted with lifestealing. High damage and high defense as well.
