Dying

   One of the hardest things I’ve had to learn and still gets me in WoW is dying. Being an old school game player I do everything I can to keep from dying, reason being is that games use to have penalties for death. I can’t tell you how many times i’ve lost XP or had to go find my corpse and get my equipment off of it. (picture running into a group of beast in my underwear). But this isn’t true in World of Warcraft, there are no penalties or xp loss, the worst part is the time it takes to run to your corpse and sometimes you’ll get a 10% durability loss on your equipment.
   This doesn’t mean go into a raid or group not worrying about a wipe or just yourself dieing, but it does mean it’s not the end of the world, take a deep breath and say it’s ok to die, it’s ok to die… There do you feel better?

Curbob or Conjude as he's know in World of Warcraft has only been playing the MMO for about a month, so yes he is a noob! Even with a background of free beta testing other online games and working for Epic Games on Gears of war as a game tester, he would still consider himself a noob compared to people that have been playing WoW for years now. So sit back, relax and learn with him, because at some time we are all gaming noobies!
