Breakfast Topic: That damned race/class combo you can never find

By the end of the holiday, you'll inevitably be wanting to give a fistful of something to one combo, and it sure ain't love.
For me it's the troll rogue. I swear they don't really exist, and it's just a cruel prank played on us by Blizzard. I've even gone so far as to stage a James Bondesque infiltration of the Horde district, complete with helicopters and a dashing dwarf parachuting onto rooftops. It's not that they just aren't out in public, but that they don't frickin' exist at all!
On the other hand, as a dwarf hunter, I know what it feels like to be the hunted. I do get sick of being constantly showered with petals at times. I even found myself hanging out in out of the way places and disguising myself as a ninja to avoid it. Perhaps I am someone else's troll rogue.
What race/class combo is your curse? Have you found yourself hiding from achievement seekers, and if so, how?

Troll Rouge...
Got my achiv last night. Was fearing for the rouge but I caught one in Dalaran.

For ten minutes I've been sitting here trying to think up a funny yet not insulting way to tell you how to spell "Rogue", since so many people seem to make the same mistake.
I still haven't come up with anything.

And Rogue*, please.

While I'm a bit of a spellcheck nazi myself, it actually looks like you've gone out of your way to insult him. Do it or don't, but at least have the courage of your convictions.

On the topic of Rouges...

Spell correction only awakens the noob callers, at least on my server. But it is annoying, yeah.
Combo: blood elf hunter

Sorry... was not my intent to come across as insulting, if I truly did.

Rouges are by far the most overpowdered class.

The alliance race/class combos gave me the most problem but I just camped out in front of the Alliance section of Dalaran for a while and got them all... last year.
When I first read the topic, I thought it was about race/class combos you can't HAVE.
The recently changed the Under Development page but for years it was a picture of a wireframed character that in the final skinned version it was Troll Warlock. I guess they got tired of being accused of teasing us with that picture.

Created a horde alt, /who to find a troll rogue in Dalaran, asked him to please be at the VH entrance in 1 minute, logged on with my alliance main, screamed "Troll rogue at VH entrance" on trade and done.

Rouge is red,
Violets are blue,
Spell Rogue correctly,
Or I'll stab you in the mouth.

There was a Troll Rogue on my server sitting down the ramp in the Horde area of Dalaran just out of petal range. It was fun watching all the Alliance getting bounced out over and over. A veritable cacophony of noises!

'Remember, it's "G" before "U" or you'll look like a n00b.'
And the reason you can never find a Troll Rogue, they learned stealth from the Tauren.

I'm actually surprised by how few times I've been showered with petals thus far. I'm in Dalaran and Orgimmar a lot, too, between the cooking & fishing dailies and the auction house.
Don't get your hopes up though, Uldum, midterms this week.

Undead warrior.
mollyrazor Feb 8th 2010 8:51AM
Yes, yes, yes. There was a troll rogue sitting in the middle of Dalaran yesterday, it was the first race/class combo I found. But undead warriors are apparently completely mythical creatures on my realm.
Rob Feb 8th 2010 9:18AM
Bump...
Troll Rogues are everywhere. Undead Warrior, no one rolls them, they just look dumb. I mean Orgrimmar is protected by stealthy Troll Rogues.
Dogii Kruger Feb 8th 2010 9:42AM
Definitely have to agree. When looking for one yesterday I had to go on an epic chase from Org to UC to Vengence Landing and finally Dalalag let me catch them. And I checked all through UC and the undead starting areas for one before I even started chasing the only one that showed up when I did a who search for undead.
Kanap Feb 8th 2010 9:52AM
I find this funny because i have a 73 undead warrior.
Blacksheep Feb 8th 2010 9:52AM
I must live on the bizarro world realm because last night I saw 5 different undead warriors, I'm still missing a Troll Rogue though, just like the author of this post. I don't think I've ever seen a Troll Rogue in real life. Oh well, gonna get a friend/guildie to make a lvl 1 troll rogue, get it to Dal and I'll be done, I suggest you guys do the same for your undead warrior.
