I'd be in the conservative, corporate, buisness-executive class, wearing really baggy, lopsided WoW merchant clothes, so then I could manipulate everyone to my will through mass-marketing and get religious fanatics to do my bidding. I would sell the same message of "Apocolypse Forecasted For Tommorow" every day of the week (and twice on sundays) and hoard all my gold in a cave protected by a freaking sweet dragon that would also be my private jet.

How true would this real world WoW be to the game?

If it would be identical to the game, I'd take a random class and then jump off a cliff so I wouldn't have to take a lifetime of mind numbing and ultimately meaningless grinding.

If it would be like WoW only not suck balls at all, and instead actually be good and have zero grind, I'd be a warlock. Because I'm so ronery...

As in real life, I would be first class, all the way.

I'd definitely be a Druid. They suck in the game (IMO, don't flame me plox), but the ability to change shapes, talk to animals, stuff like that, is AWESOME.

On the plus side, you can't grow old or permanently die.

If World of Warcraft were real, and I found myself there, I'd wonder what horrible sins I'd committed to get me sent there for all eternity when I died.

If WoW was real life, lvl 1 OT, lvl 30 Pilot lvl 50 Mage or Warlock.

Am I the only one who thinks that if WoW had player housing they would play the game?

Regen Scrappers are so last week and a half ago. Bots/Force Field Masterminds are where it's at. :D

Although I hear Traps might be a good substitute for the Force Field power pool.

We're talking real life. Just imagine being able to heal completly in less than ten seconds... to self-resurrect! What does a bots mastermind do? Summon an unstoppable army of self-regenerasting robot warriors that do your bidding by blasting your enemies to bits with laser and plasma weapons while protecting you and themselves with force fields? How is that in any way cool?

Dammit. Okay, you win this round. :mad:

Blood Elf Warlock. I'd just sic my Voidwalker on people I don't like, crack open a book, and tune out the screams.

The arcitecture of Silvermoon and the surrounding towns is impressive. I especially like those spires but the auction house in Silvermoon in Velen is completely empty so I can't make a gold off my wares.

I know that I sound like a nerd but WoW can actually be a little fun. One fun thing to do in game is charge through a crowd of enemies and get a good train going then run past some lower level players and watch them get killed when the monsters stop chasing you and start running back to where they were.

World of Warcraft is not real life and however hypothetical the question, it does not in any way lessen the stupidity of the question to the level where it's not worth answering, because even though I play the game, I would not ever consider it close to real life.

If I had an answer, I would need to stop playing :p

Are you sure you're not talking about everquest?

Because that's not possible to do in WoW. The monsters run ALL the way back and don't attack people on the way back. If there are lower levels where the monsters used to be, chances are that they would have gotten killed either way - train or no train.

Indri must be speaking of inside instances, where someone in the group aggroes a crapload of things, then runs out of the instance, so that the enemies will mass attack the players left.

It's happened to be before, and it's not fun at all.


I'd probably be a Draenei priest. The Draenei are quite honorable.
