What's Your Plan For MoP Launch?

[Bellanka]

Although probably too late for some ... clicky-quests are great for that little added boost.

I have all of the JC trinkets I never bothered making ready to click and turn in for 4 more quests, plus Onyxia's head for a tiny bit more. That's 30 quests right at launch when you count the TB, JC, Cooking and Fishing dailies.

[halabar]

Does dropping out of the game at launch time count as a plan?

Yes, as long as you don't write a diatribe about it..

[Holyblaze]

Rushing to grab the mining pick and praying to find it there. Then probably a good couple of hours of questing on my tankadin before going to bed, the real nerding will start at the end of the first day as I've booked off from Wednesday to Friday.

Mining Pick? The old one wont do any longer? Is it better? What is the name and I will look it up when I get off work.

Real men have a army knife (that now gives +10 to gathering profs)

Launch plans: Work on GW2 map completion, don't play WoW at least till rumours of the next expansion announcements show up.

[Paxen]

I'm going to watch the loading screen apparently.

Had to log out since I'm levelling my monk first.

Went to turn in TB dailies, loading screen back to SW forevaaaah. Guess that's it for tonight.

[Holyblaze]

haha BAM! I have the Army Knife on ALL my toons Worldie. It sounded like maybe we needed a special pick to get the new UBER ore.

I have Tuesday - Friday off.
- Nap on Tuesday night at 8-10pm (Dont know if I will be able too as I will be AMPED UP! )
- Start to try and log in (My server is SUPER old and SUPER FULL) and go from there.
- I will pre cook my meals for next 3 days so that I can NUKE them fast and get back to it!
- Next week...I will be in Vegas! Muhahahaha

I was planning on running my Hunter to lvl first, but Now that I SO love my warrior I may just go with him. Did I mention that he is a Miner/Skinner? haha WoOt! I always pick my Hunter cause I kill WAY more mobs that drop cloth and I do Skinning, but I just love him.

[Newsom]

So it took 10 minutes until the servers crashed, now 90% of my guild including me cannot log in (instance servers and Kalimdor seems to be completely down).

[KysenMurrin]

I'm planning to sit in a helicopter firing invisble bullets at invisible enemies for an hour.

Real men have a army knife (that now gives +10 to gathering profs)

The mining pick and skinning knife give +10 to their professions, and prof vendors now have an herbalist's shovel that gives +10 herb. No, they don't stack with the knife.

ty for reminding me to get a knife for my herbers

went to store and got goodies for tonight!

[Amirya]

Tonight, roommate and I are going to pick up our copies. Go home, start install, crash.
Tomorrow, we're going to work.
Wednesday, we're going to help a friend get some stuff out of her apartment, and he has a promotion interview.
Rest of the time will be levelling, though I gotta squeeze in school time too.

No server firsts here for us, and I can't bring myself to want to make a panda monk.

Unfortunately, outside commitments come before infinite loading screens.

Troll Monk is where it's at.

Although it sucks that Blizzard didn't listen and make him a capoeira monk.

Gathering implements are no longer required, you can easily mine without a pick, so they have decided to add a small bonus to the props for whoever keeps it.

Same goes for fishing, you don't need a pole anymore, but if you have one it has a bonus.

As stated above, since 5.0 you don't require a pick at all, however, in Pandaria you will not collect gems while mining, you collect ore only, this is why you need the Ancient Pandaren Mining Pick, a rare spawn that will allow you to occasionally find gems.
