Final tally - Who is going what in retail?
 

Shaman here.

Going Mining/Blacksmith for tradeskills.

Still sorta stuck between Rogue and Shaman. I'll make Shaman first during retail probably and if I don't like it later on I'll try to...catch up on a Rogue I guess. Skinning/Leatherworking for my chars.

same classes or maybe warrior and i will probably do tailoring or mining/blacksmith

Mining/Engineering definately; not as lucrative as blacksmithing, but someone has to do it, and there are some cool things in the higher levels.

I really like the troll/mage combo, but I may do something different. Maybe a hunter so I can use the guns I make; if I go hunter, I'll probably still do troll.

It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose.

I'd say avoid warrior for now. Major gimpness.

Troll/Rogue Skinning/Leatherworking First Aid as a secondary (these don't count towards proffessions, right?)

You can get all three secondaries, as well as two professions.

Good to know, that'll definately help the small bit of downtime I have in combat.

Either a warrior all out or a mage, have not decided yet. A question for those of you who had blacksmithing as one of your professions, was it easy/worthwhile? I ask because I played as a mage and never got to try the typical blacksmith/miner warrior build.

I am decided. I am going Orc Hunter. Engineering/Mining.

I just need to know what server to go on come Tuesday.

I feel like a poser. But I will probaly go Shaman/Orc with Leather/Skinning as main.
And a Druid/Tauren ?/? for secondary to make money.

Either Warlock or Mage. Undead. Tailoring/Something else. Not sure what yet.

Undead priest........ tailoring and..... something

Lots of tailors?

well they seem so good, you can make all this armor with more stats on it than just defense right?

I'm definately going troll/mage miner/engineer now.

Undead Warlock or Priest, not sure which. I'll be decided by the end of the weekend, hopefully. Tradeskills I'll take up Tailoring and Enchanting, maybe. Or maybe Tailoring and Engineering, and have a second character for Mining.

We should try and pool the linen to one person at a time, get them out of the linen stage first and continue doing that for the rest of us. Once we get to the wool or something a little more scarce we could fend for ourselves, but there is plenty of linen at the beginning and it would probably work well to pool it.

Sounds like a good idea for the linen thing... But then again... How do you decide who gets it first? Everyone would want it first.
Oh well, just a question. Doesn't concern me because I won't be playing with you guys.

Simple way to solve that problem, the tailors meet up and do /random 100. Go in order of rolls.
