    What will you do first when Cataclysm launches?

    To further clarify the title, what will do first in game once you install cata and log on?

    For me it will be to roll a worgen warrior and goblin warlock.

    I'll then check out the new zones on my main after trying the new starting areas on my new toons.

    collect 10 of x item then kill 10 of x monster

    Start the grind to 85

    Log onto my main, go right to Hyjal and start pewpewing my way to level 85. Unless they do gated leveling, which is what I hope they do. Gated as in you can level to 82 the first week, 84 the next week, and 85 final week, then release 85 Raids a week or two after the 85 gate opens.

    compete against 10 alliance players and 45 horde players to kill "X" monsters for "Y" items or do what I did for wrath, wait 3-4 days then play so I can quickly quest up while everyone else is mid-lvl recapped (ie lvl 75)

    Install it?....
    But probably as the majority, start to level up

    But no. I'll be pushing my way to 85 on mah DK, trading out SM for some quest green within the first 5 hours undoubtedly.

    First of all, depending on when they decide to actually release Cataclysm, I will probably be calling in sick for at least a day, since I wish to be part of the race to Server first 85

    1) Level either my hunter or enhance shaman to 85, declaring it as my main raiding character for cata (haven't decided which one yet)
    2a) Spend a week or 2 farming the shit out of heroics for gear, preparing myself for my guild's main group pushing for raid progression.
    2b) Level professions and finish all of the quests in each and every leveling zone (I'm a lore nut) during the downtime between heroics.
    3) Level the character I didn't choose from step 1 to 85, declaring it as my alternate raiding character
    4) Repeat step 2a & 2b for the 2nd character, preparing it for my guild's 2nd raiding group pushing for progression.
    5) Roll a worgen (class to be decided) and at least level it to 60 on Kalimdor to experience all of the zone changes on that continent
    6) Roll a dwarf shaman and at least level it to 60 on Eastern Kingdoms to experience all of the zone changes on that continent

    That is so far my agenda for Cataclysm. Step 3-6 will all be during the downtime of my guild pushing for raid progression mind you, so I could easily see it taking several months to finish said agenda.


    EDIT: added extra details for each step
