I played with a paladin character. When he fell in glorious battle, covering the retreat of his companions in the eastern plaguelands... I deleted the character and created a new death knight. Only one of my friends knew that this was going to happen. So when the character was nowhere to be found (as a friend or anything) they really felt like he died. The re-encounter, a month later (with partial absnesia included), was with crying and screaming. They scolded me in role and out of role XD. But it was worth it because it became part of the history of several of my friends. Stories of devastating loss and painful reunions with long lost companions.

A tip I can provide is if you’re on Moon Guard and looking to tap into some quality RP, look out for the character Elinore Hartwell. She is a very experienced civilian RPer who’s around Stormwind quite often and has connections to A LOT of genuinely nice people. Never a dull moment bar-crawling or relaxing at Lion’s Rest with like 4 other solid characters around

Always going for the simple folk RP. Farmer, lumberjack, merchant... Much more fun than roleplaying being a superhero

yo thank you for posting! I can't wait to see part 3!

I've RP'd for years through website forums and gave WoW RP a shot. Having the character you physically control and move around is a bit awkward for me, but it kinda warms my heart seeing all these people enjoying it.

Hey guys. I play ascension and I think with enough ppl they could make a rp server. Ascension is classless so you can litterally be Dark Ranger, Vampire, Pirate or a lumber jack. You could even choose to be "factionless".The team really did a good job and I think with more ppl they would make it better. You can even be a spartan with a spear and sword. Try it out !

Thank you. Maybe I'll never be able to play on the same server as you, and we'll never meet because of the language barrier. But, your video was pretty damn informative and I liked it. I hope the role-playing community will grow. And the video on the role-playing game will be bigger and more interesting.

How do you only have 500 subscribers? Gotta spread WoW among the improv actors.

I've gained some beautiful memories Roleplaying in WoW, drama that at times would transfer to IRL drama (Can't really ever escape this fact) but also good times and events between guilds and other players. Though I remember a time where the cities in both Alliance and Horde (Moon Guard and Wyrmrest Accord respectively) where full of life and Roleplayers going at it in the streets, Inns, Cathedral, etc. Now a days its somewhat barren, but we as a community can change that some day maybe.

Pumpfake and Machine. The two best rp'ers in the history of WoW.

Thank you so much for this guide :)

Brother, WHAT is that kultiran transmog at the beginning??? I NEED THAT, IT'S FUCKING AWESOME.

Helpful information! Thanks!

Great vid man

Super dope vid! Sorta always been super garbo at RP, and have been on and off playing wow for a while so thought fuck it why not mix two things I wanna get more into so here I am! Thanks a bunch :D

You deserve way more subscribers my friend! Thanks for the guide. edit: only criticism would be to maybe increase the video quality a bit more, 720p looks too blurry nowdays.

Shaman do not need special training seen by kalterens (not sure if spell their name rights) see with quest unlock them as a race for alliance like we meet a Shaman with no training just can call on elements. (Same with Priest because Light power go to whoever believes in their goals)

Thanks so much 🙂🙂🙂

Thank you

I need help on how to roleplay as a Worgen warrior mercenary

How is WoW as far as roleplaying? Is it deep enough to feel like it has enough structure for second life type gameplay? (Vs mostly acted out)

How do you not have more subs

Where is part 3?

2:55 That disclaimer has become painfully inaccurate...I don't know if I can ever make a nelf or draenei warlock. The implications are still too ridiculous for me.

I though that RPing was just create a character and go to Goldshire.

Can anyone support (ore refute) his claim about about Alliance RP in Moonguard and Horde RP in Wrymrest? (Great video btw)

So if I roleplay as Dranei I should put on an Indian accent and if I roleplay as a Dwarf I do a Scottish one? Will i get in trouble for the Indian accent?

What is the best server for rp?

I'd probably be a gnome mage (abilities flavored as gnomish devices) who survived the attack on Gnomeregan. The troggs and radiation drove him from his prized workshop and laboratory, so he is helping in any way he can to aid the Alliance and the gnomish race in the hope that he may one day reclaim what he has lost.

GTA is so good for RP. Wish the WoW devs would go the extra mile and add more items for rp

Thanks for this guide. No offense to anyone but wow lore is pretty lame and I regret rolling on a RP server in classic. Turns out it's not really my thing, since it feels like the community is a bit more immature than on other servers, but idk. This comment is not meant to sway anyone who want to starts RP though; try it out yourself first, maybe you'll like it

TBH as an experienced WoW role-player, it's pretty obvious that your not all that experienced in WoW roleplay. Not to say your completely inexperienced with RP, but some of your advice was just silly. on a RP server the vast majority of ppl are using TRP. The names people want are often taken along with every character map option. This is just one of example of something any experienced wow RPer would know. I've heard Alliance for Moonguard, and wyrmrest from horde, this isn't wrong, but the fact that you had to qualify it makes me think you don't really have a good gauge of RP servers either.
