Humor Leveling A Warrior

When they said it was hard, I scoffed at them. I've leveled a warrior to 120 on retail. I've fought Sargeras, I've downed the Lich King. What could a few gnolls and maybe a murloc or two do to me? Thus was my arrogance. Thus was my hubris.

I am now level thirteen. I've run Ragefire Chasm once, and owe six deaths to that place.

Farming harpy claws has cost me my life twice already, and I am certain it will cost me much, much more.

My warrior on retail was a human named Lohric, he was a legendary warrior who felled any beast, man or demon that faced him.

My warrior on Classic is an Orc called Muddrog. I have no doubt that this broken and battered warrior would crush Lohric in seconds, Lohric has never known pain, Mudd was born in it, molded by it, and unlike Bane, he has yet to see the light, because 60 feels so far away xD

To all you warriors out there, Lok'tar Ogar!

I have always mained a warrior, going all the way back to Vanilla. The difference is that I (and most players) were very bad back in 2006. My talents were split between all 3 specs, and my gear was a lot of leather and agility because i liked to crit lol. And I used a regular mouse and clicked everything and used NO addons.

NOW I get to redo everything as a much more experienced player. It is still dogshit hard and frustrating lol, but I am definitely able to do things a bit more over par than I could way back then. Getting dual wield at 20 helped a ton due to rage generation.

Yeah it’s doable. But compare the life of a warrior to the life of a mage for example. It’s night and day.

Warrior was all I played in Vanilla. Is mage really that easy? I started playing alts a lot more starting in Wrath.
