when is the ptr

deep pawn
#

Now

Two hours ago

upper pasture
#

all the farming i did before this just saves me time when remix is up lol

deep pawn
#

I guess my first char I'll go out of my way to do valley and krasarang just to get the cutscene

#

I hope the currency is account wide

silent urchin
#

oooh I got an epic chest that has two gem slots for stats

#

that's how far I got just from the campaign

#

so seems fast

#

but iirc it's a fairly fast rep on live

deep pawn
#

Yeah, because you're convincing them to join your faction.

dense plover
#

reminder, hozen and jinyu WERE planned as the races for each faction initially

#

but it was changed to pandaren once they figured out how to do a neutral race and let you choose

tepid fiber
#

Both in and out of Chromie Time, without any active rep bonuses

harsh wedge
#

Do we have infos about the tier sets' effects ?

upper pasture
#

it will be whatever the community voted for from the past DF seasons.

harsh wedge
#

I meant for panda remix, my bad

upper pasture
#

ah, not sure if there will be tier tbh

molten niche
#

so i bought a cloth armor set as a dk and it let me claim it yall tihnk thats intended or is it a bug?

tepid fiber
#

And if anything, any gear would do what it would normally do

upper pasture
#

all the gear is already customizable and there wouldn't be tier sets for evokers/dhs

#

i HATE that evoker spec switching is bugged

uncut lintel
#

wdym

tepid fiber
#

Wasn't there a similar issue with DK's and DH's leveling outside of their starting zones the first times? Due to unlocking specs at a different point than 10 originally?

#

Probably good to catch now than later

deep pawn
#

It's likely because part of the evoker starting experience you are stuck as dev for a while til near the end

tepid fiber
#

Yes that's my point

deep pawn
#

It's not til the end you can decide to heal or dps next to someone

uncut vault
uncut lintel
#

can anyone comfirm can u make a timerunning evoker with an already existing evoker?

tepid fiber
#

That's a good question. @dense plover You're doing evoker, any clue?

silent urchin
#

that's nice

#

cogwheel are the movement abilities

#

cloud serpent rep go brr

dense plover
#

they said in the replies

#

evokers are still one per realm

uncut lintel
#

maybe it be fixed

dense plover
uncut lintel
#

or changed

dense plover
#

its intended

uncut lintel
#

but i want another evoker for TWW D:

#

.laaame

dense plover
#

then use a different realm

#

theres tons of realms

uncut lintel
#

no thanks

#

my ocd hates realms

#

xD

dense plover
#

then you cant complain

uncut lintel
#

but thanks for leting me kno

deep pawn
#

Pandaria reps had items to increase rep gains on alts, so that might be on by default

silent urchin
#

Yeah, I think that's what the +bonus is

#

but it seems to have an extra +100% as well, maybe

warm topaz
#

a bit off topic, there is drama about the new Xal'Atath model?

#

or is just stupid people saying stupid things?

tepid fiber
#

Irrelevant drama not worth paying any attention to, as always

#

The takes are as relevant as the people making them

silent urchin
#

... it's basically the same as her recent igc model?

#

what's there to even get mad about

tepid fiber
#

I don't understand half the nonsense some of these grognards get mad about

#

Like, in all honesty

upper pasture
#

What are they even complaining about with her model?

tepid fiber
#

idk probably something micropp'd as usual

dense plover
#

evoker has available class apparel

#

no garrosh shoulders it seems....

molten niche
#

yea i looked nada

dense plover
#

i was hoping that and/or the heirloom with the socket would be available

tepid fiber
#

womp womp

#

na heirllom weps were limited to the raid on heroic

#

DH gets a cool glaive

tepid fiber
#

Daaamn

it looks like the class arsenal stuff which requires completing the throne of thunder achieve are NEW appearances

where do u see that

dense plover
#

theres this sick af staff for monk!

dense plover

#

ahh i didnt bother looking at it cuz i saw the armor is just recolor of the class armor that was in the travelers log thing

tepid fiber
#

Always look at everything when testing

dense plover
#

armor is recolors of the 3 pc trading post stuff!

#

thats where ive seen it!

#

the armor appearances are locked behind the landfall achieve

#

So glad I didn't waste tenders

upper pasture
#

I mean, it’s not the same colors

deep pawn
#

Still haha

tepid fiber
#

Yeah, not really a waste

#

It's something different

upper pasture
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

deep pawn
#

They made those sets way too expensive for one class only when they were adding recolors you can get all of.

tepid fiber
#

The recolors are still for those classes?

upper pasture
#

I mean, in time you’ll be able to get all of them

deep pawn
#

Only one I ended up buying was the monk weapons for the flower staff

upper pasture
#

That’s like the whole point of the TP

deep pawn
#

So far there hasn't been a month that hasn't added 2000+ new things to buy

upper pasture
#

And it’s a new system that’s just barely over a year old

tepid fiber
#

There aren't even that many items per month???

#

And they come back into the rotation

#

Why even bother exaggerating a number that ridiculous

deep pawn
#

I'm talking total cost

deep pawn
#

Each month has easily added 2000+ tenders worth of stuff no?

tepid fiber
#

That's not close to what you said

deep pawn
#

Sorry I didn't specify cost

molten niche
#

u cant even earn 2k tender ina month lol

deep pawn
#

I was talking about things costing too much for only one class, I had the connection in my head

tepid fiber
#

Well, most of us don't know what's going on in your head (thank god) so we can only really rely on what you say

deep pawn
#

I was vague, sorry. You read items, I meant cost, neither was written

zealous sedge
#

Based on first impressions how realistic to buy all collectibles in this event

tepid fiber
#

It was a discussion about items yes

deep pawn
#

I was discussing the cost of said items.

#

Regardless, I'm glad I didn't spend the tenders on them when I can get recolors in this event hopefully fast

#

Tenders are a much scarcer resource than time for many

upper pasture
#

Eventually tender scarcity won’t matter. So eventually you’ll be able to get everything

#

Which again was my original point about the system. The only fomo is created by yourself and being mad you didn’t buy said item the first time it came around

deep pawn
#

We don't know when they'll run out of stuff to add, so far they haven't.

tepid fiber
#

The other gear is a recolor, so it's not a waste at all if you still prefer the one color over the other

#

Or want both

deep pawn
#

Comparative waste of tenders vs use I'll get out of the 3 piece non full sets. Whatever you want me to say they were not worth the value for a mismatched set in my opinion.

#

For example, the druid pieces literally matched an alliance only pvp set haha

upper pasture
#

The thing is you don’t need to know when it ends to know that it will end eventually.

deep pawn
#

They'll run out of pets and mounts to add to the rotation the same time the game itself ends

upper pasture
#

i have a feeling WoW will go into a maintance mode long before they actually shut the servers down.

deep pawn
#

That's what I meant. I still haven't gotten everything in HotS for example

tepid fiber
#

More PTR content pls 🙏

#

Need more relevant stuff lol

deep pawn
#

Like this month I can't even justify the dread wake

tepid fiber
#

Has the new hunter stable been implemented yet?

#

In PTR

upper pasture
tepid fiber
#

Definitely got it. Unfortunately when the word came out that it was leaving the shop I wasn't in a position to buy it

#

The TP has been so useful for that

upper pasture
#

yeah, i usually save up bnet balance and wait for the sales to happen

tepid fiber
#

Now just bring in the goblin TCG mounts and pets

tepid fiber
#

But usually I get non-wow stuff

#

Like OW battlepass progression since it's more time-effective to buy it with gold instead of playing the damn game

uncut lintel
#

MAYBEI SHOULD MAIN MONK

#

WTF

upper pasture
#

this reminds me i still need to buy that stuff that's leaving in august

warm topaz
#

hehe

upper pasture
#

good!

tepid fiber
#

Based and dogpilled

uncut lintel
#

i dont even ahve the mount

#

but the way it was small made it bad

deep pawn
#

Why could they nerf it in hotfix but not revert til a patch

uncut lintel
#

to make u stay subbed

tepid fiber
#

Because that's what they did

#

If they were going to do it another way then they would have done it that way

uncut lintel

tepid fiber
#

Yes I'm gumball

uncut lintel
#

what do u think abt them making timerunning of other xpacs

tepid fiber
#

☝️

#

Would be neat

upper pasture
#

well, lets not get ahead of ourselves. lets see how this one plays out first

#

but on paper this looks great

tepid fiber
#

Naturally

deep pawn
#

This really should have been an expansion that was already classic. I'd have done TBC personally

#

I think this is stepping on mop classics toes next year

warm topaz
#

i would not enjoy this on TBC as much as i will on MoP

tepid fiber
#

God, TBC questing was so rediculously grindy in comparison

#

It didn't start getting more dynamic until Cata and then moreso in MoP

uncut lintel
#

tbc barely has any good mounts or cosmetics

#

i dont want 50 recolored rays

#

MOP better

deep pawn
#

I'd have bought ashes

uncut lintel
#

imagneo not already having ashes

upper pasture
#

tbf i think each expansion could have it's own special place in peoples heart

deep pawn
#

Maybe I've done MoP fully a lot more than TBC

#

Regardless, I think this dampens the fun of MoP classic in a year

tepid fiber
#

Having played MoP Classic next year already, I can agree

upper pasture
#

could be their way of soft announcing no MoP classic it ends with cata classic

#

the rage

tepid fiber
#

Watch it just cycle through TBC-Cata and back to TBC again

uncut lintel
deep pawn
#

I demand MoP lock and hunter

tepid fiber
#

I'll pass. Black Arrow was snoozeville

#

We do spears in this house now

uncut lintel
#

#

u can eat mini hot dogs with it

tepid fiber

#

Ugh, I am constantly g etting stuck in combat. I thought I managed to narrow it down to a specific tinker but it still happens randomly

tepid fiber
#

Which one and how is it causing the stick?

silent urchin
#

I thought it was victory fire. Does a bunch of aoe on killing something. I removed it and it seemed better for a time, but it's happened a couple times since anyway

#

seems to last a few minutes

#

cleared by death but not shadowmeld

tepid fiber
#

Weird. No change on a relog/reload or haven't tested yet?

tepid fiber
silent urchin
#

oh wow you even start getting double tinker sockets on gear

molten niche
#

i tihnk the bronze currency needs ot be uped on drap rate

#

for how much crap we can buy

silent urchin
#

you'll get tons from higher level daily stuff

molten niche
#

and how do u know?

silent urchin
#

cause at low levels they award the minor cache which is 200, and there's something like 3 types of cache that are bigger than that

warm topaz
#

so true

tepid fiber
#

Won't need to no-life it either, just spend smartly and play the content

silent urchin
#

made it to 29 at the end of jade forest, with my cloak up to

#

seems to increase pretty quick

#

I did see there's bigger than 1% increases at a time for threads as well, so presumably at higher levels it goes very fast

#

oh I got a greater cache for finishing the zone, which was 1k bronze

#

up to 7k of that

molten niche
#

im 26 with 4k and my cloak is no where near that lol. im not even a 3rd done with jade forest

Cataclysm Classic Beta is totally broken on macOS, game crashes since latest patch until Metal Legacy is enabled. Game crashes in Uldum at any graphics modes.
So I sent bug report, crash reports. Nothing changes. Uldum is not working for weeks!

Any chance that Blizzard fix it? I can't believe that it's impossible to play Cataclysm on my iMac. WotLK and Burning Crusade was working fine. 😦
Several weeks before prepatch.

#

Also created forum thread.

So I'm acting like: Blizzard staff, please, notice me! It's a little humiliating.

tepid fiber
#

Well they're not looking here lol

deft lodge
#

Of course. Came here to share my sadness.

tepid fiber
#

And only community managers would be looking at the forums right now

#

So just keep reporting

molten niche
#

yea just for all the mounts alone u need 855200 tokens

tepid fiber
#

Although, macOS problems, expect to not be priority for triage lol

deft lodge
#

It should work at least 😄

dense plover
#

not really

deft lodge
#

Because of macOS version is not working, it's impossible to report bugs.

dense plover
#

low priority for a beta

deep pawn
#

either raids and dungeons give lots of grindable bronze from the gear, or the achieves are repeatable

deft lodge
#

But prepatch release is really close.

dense plover
#

but they dont care about a few people reporting bugs

deft lodge
#

😦

dense plover
#

this has been a problem in many betas before

#

welcome to beta

tepid fiber
#

And, again, unfortunate but true, macOS

deft lodge
#

Thank you for your opinion, guys!

#

Will see 🙂

upper pasture
#

i wonder if raids in remix are gonna be daily or still weekly.

dense plover
#

some achievement progress is being lost on logout

#

exploration and quest chapter achieves appear to be disappearing

austere gazelle
upper pasture
#

still use crests

#

bullions are to buy items from the vendors either mog items or lego upgrade items or actual gear

austere gazelle
#

gotcha, for once I like this system, should stay for raid intemisation in TWW, with some balancing ofc but buying stuff with the lowest rank directly for a modic amount should alleviate the dry run

upper pasture
#

eh, it works nicely for a fated season but outside that it just makes it where you "have to" buy certain items to be invited to raids.

austere gazelle
#

and if you unlock the NPC at the end of a raid instead would also be a kind of balancing to do

upper pasture
#

since people would expect you by week 3-4 to have your BiS trinkets or weapons by then

#

not that i don't mind the system but if it was always in the game it tends to create a lot of problems

austere gazelle
#

still better than having run with no loot or to itemise yourself fully MM+ instead of raid in two weeks

upper pasture
#

i loved the justice system (which is pretty much the same)

austere gazelle
#

There is a real issue rn is that you can farm MM+ which gives infinite loots per week, and not raid, so raid should give you a way to buy some piece of stuff to compensate, based on crest or specific currency you got in raid

#

Removing the seal was a very bad idea, and they should also allow the weekly chest to count any boss kill per week ( could be the same boss killed in a specific raid difficulty ) to be taken into account too

upper pasture
#

but then players would be "forced into" doing raid every week or they will miss out

austere gazelle
#

they are already " forced " to do M+ content to gear themselves

#

what's different?

upper pasture
#

raid are an hours long commitment when dungeons are certainly smaller time investments.

austere gazelle
#

yes, so that's why raid should give a reward up to the MM+ system.
Why wasting several hours in a raid and dropping nothing for weeks, when I can just stuff myself in M+ instead ?

upper pasture
#

i mean the great vault exists for this reason.

#

and that's just player choice

#

you can do either or neither.

#

or both!

austere gazelle
#

but the great vault is already biased toward M+, you have to clean a whole raid in a specific difficulty to unlock all for example

upper pasture
#

and alot of BiS items come from raids. sure you can get myth items for tier to convert from M+ but weapons and trinkets for the most part are from raid

tepid fiber
#

You could say it's biased towards PvP at that point, even better and more accessible vault rewards than M+

austere gazelle
#

I'm not asking for a M+ nerf because the system is perfect at this point, but at this point raid rentability are at the bottom.

tepid fiber
austere gazelle
upper pasture
#

oh so for one class in one tier that's your example? what about the other 37 specs?

austere gazelle
#

the other spec have to drop this item, once per week. If it doesnt drop they can't try again

#

and when it drop it has to be rolled between several player too, so the chance to have it is small

#

in M+, you can farm the same dungeon over and over again until you're fed up

upper pasture
#

it's almost like group play is incentives to have consistent groups

tepid fiber
#

Basically. Pug problems tend to only exist it pugs

upper pasture
#

not to say it can't be done in pugs because it IS but by opening yourself up to playing with randoms you'll rolling against a new set of people each week. but again that's player choice not anything to do with the game. i DO wish we got the badge system back somehow BUT there are problems that will come back with it.

tepid fiber
#

Honestly I prefer current gearing

#

There are so many routes, so much viability, plenty of options...

upper pasture
#

i actually wish we could tell the GV what type of item we wanted and it could sway the odds a bit in favor of that slot

tepid fiber
#

Hell, progression is easier and more accessible and more streamlined than ever before

upper pasture
#

not to totally make it drop THE item we want but to be like hey i'd like a cloak and then it has say double the chances of giving you cloak options that week

tepid fiber
#

Possibly, but imagine rooting for a cloak and then RNG decides to give you the ole howdy do, gives you a cloak, and now you're locked in for greater chances of another cloak?

#

Nah, better to just not try and fix what ain't broke

warm topaz
upper pasture
#

naw it's a choice you make before you open the vault so you'd be able to make the best choice before confirming it. not at the beginning of the week cause that would be my luck. i already get trinkets from raid after the vault gives it to me

tepid fiber
#

I think that if you make one chance more likely but still rely on an RNG system, there are still some people who that would antagonize even more. And they already get mad enough when they aren't getting the drop they want

upper pasture
#

Oh for sure but that isn’t any different from how the system works now. They think the game is already screwing them over each week

vernal juniper
#

it will be next week 100%

#

they said it will start before s4

#

so

#

there is no escape

upper pasture
#

Well there is one escape

#

Pull up the roadmap and look to the bottom right

vernal juniper
#

yeah I know but

#

until now they never changed dates from roadmap but, anything can happen.

upper pasture
#

I mean, until it happens it has never happened before

timerunning is fun
Love the way you can get abilities that arent even a part of your class

#

And strangely the random things from the caches is fun as well since its a surprise

rain cave
#

The potential tier sets they could make for her raid in midnight will be insane

#

Void blood knight aesthetic, void sunwell

#

Even stuff like a void ranger like alleria

#

Perhaps druids get a dark elune set with an eclipse aesthetic like her eyes

upper pasture
#

Let’s just get through TWW first

rain cave

Nothing wrong with some cool ideas

clear apex

Hmm we didn't really get fire druid stuff so doubt we'd get void druid things

upper pasture

You sure about that?

No red skin, I'm aware some cosmetics are a bit fire themed but those are for raids

rain cave
#

I mean tier sets

Not customisations

Who knows blizzard likes to be really weird sometimes about sets vs the expac theme

There seems to be little ones and big ones, big ones seem to have a chance to give you a random thread

its just random

#

i dont think there have been hotfixes

otherwise evoker spec change would fucking work

i have noticed there is rare gear drops

they have a small amount of main stat

elder seal
#

anyone confirmed do you get allied race rewards for maxing in Remix?

silent urchin
#

after hitting 30 you start getting uncommon quality threads which are 3 stat at a time

#

also seem to start getting more bronze from the quest reward chest

elder seal
#

👌

silent urchin
#

apparently some people have got very OP cloaks already by spamming first LFR boss in a premade cause you can do it very quickly

elder seal
#

I'm assuming cloak progress aint accountwide?

thin warren
#

I thought I read it was?

elder seal
#

another thing i had no time to test

#

I'll test it right away . i should have 2 chars with the cloak atm.

silent urchin
#

it's not fully account wide

#

you get a series of achievements that grant new characters extra starting threads

elder seal
#

ah

silent urchin
elder seal
#

Fine enough for me

thin warren
#

ahah

silent urchin
#

I'm unclear if the higher quality threads count for more progress. I assume they do but it doesn't track the actual number on the achievement

elder seal
#

So i have not seen new posts about leveling. any ways to quickly gain max atm? Just asking for quick Bronze collecting to update some screenshots

warm topaz
#

max got lvl 70 yesterday

silent urchin
#

yeah, the first boss LFR thing is super fast

#

there's a lot of tinker gems that make stuff explode for more damage on death

i cant even que on lfr yet tho thonk

and like 40 dudes you can pull into the first boss

oh well, enough PTR for me today. it would be endless swam of stuff to do if you wanted to it to be so

So some info:

  • Only the xp bonus on the cloak gets applied account-wide. other stats are per-character.
  • It will take 2-3 toons in order get max xp bonus.
  • Currently on PTR, they are using Chomie Time tech so quest XP drops to nothing once you hit level 60. Currently the only way to get xp is from mob grinding, killing Elites, or farming Mogu'shan Vaults.
  • Heroic dungeons appears to use the tuning from S4 Heroic dungeons (480-ish) when green gear caps out at 345 time level. Not sure if running Normal dungeons will give gear that can be upgraded to run Heroic Dungeons or not.
  • Sprite event on Timeless isle appears to be a VERY GOOD thread farming event.
  • War Mode has been turned off completely in this event. People have tried to leave Pandaria and you seem to be ported back if you do. But if you made it to Oggrimar or Stormwind, you will not be able to turn on War Mode.
  • All teleportation trinkets are disabled or removed.
  • All portals (Mage portals, DK Portals, normal portals in the world) have either been removed or disabled.
  • All profession trainers have either been removed or disabled their trainer abilities.
  • Haven't tested the chair in Timeless Isle that ports you to Draenor but I suspect that doesn't work either.
  • Heirloom tab is removed but currently you can mail heirloom gear from another toon that is not part of the event to the character.

I didn't try it but it's weird to me that around lv15 or so they gave my mage a portal to darnassus.

#

But i guess that's for after you get to lv70/ event ends

silent urchin
#

nope

warm topaz
#

i was like, omg what is this, where am i

#

good times

pallid coral
#

I found out because of a Wowhead article at the time it was first discovered. and it just stuck with me.

dense plover
#

they need to fix that

pallid coral
#

Yes I have

dense plover
#

i reported the cloak not giving stats other than xp and some stamina

#

b/c thats NOT what they showed in the article

#

heroic tuning also sounds like a bug

#

i learned the scouting maps are OP af

#

because it completes all the exploration achieves

#

and im sure theyre aware of the set unlocks not showing if youve unlocked them bug

#

hopefully they do some fixes and run this event again, but im assuming this short event is looking for these big bugs and to test transitioning to normal since they have to replace all of the slotted gear and remove the gems

#

you can mail all sorts of things from other characters

#

including BoE gear

#

its gonna get patched to probably only allow mail from other timerunning characters

#

or unable to send mail to timerunners at all

ionic terrace
#

you get a trinket fordoing the 5.3/.5.4 achievement

silent urchin

Yeah, there's a trinket for level 70 and rings and maybe neck from stuff like all heroic dungeons/scenarios as well, I think

you can do the heroic ones while leveling

If you try and break into the rest of the world, a popup saying "This is not your time... Returning to Pandaria" comes up.

(First noticable example is during the Lion's Landing campaign where you go to Bizmo's Brawlpub, you can try and escape the deeprun tram into Stormwind)

#

i just hate that the back piece th eonly thing that is accoutn wide is only the xp gain it seems

deep pawn
#

can't give alts power til TWW

molten niche
#

? what

#

the back peice is suppsoed to be account wide for all the toons in the mop remix thing

#

all stats everything. it might be a bug right now

silent urchin

post 60 scaling is wild

#

Which.. I guess is kinda true in base wow as well

#

if your gear lags at all everything starts one-shotting you

70

uncut lintel

oh

tepid fiber
#

After Pandemonium they're added to your regular character roster

uncut lintel
#

yea

tepid fiber
#

And ready to start TWW

uncut lintel
#

is it fast leveling has anyone hit 60 yet

#

i mean

#

70

#

fock

#

in ptr

pallid coral
silent urchin
#

yes, people have. Although the xp scaling is all over the place

#

from like 35-50 the xp required to level actually decreases

#

and then post 60 quests basically stop giving xp

#

although dungeons etc still give a ton

uncut lintel
#

okay so wait

#

its like retail leveling

#

but less

#

?

#

i thought it was super fast leveling

pallid coral
pallid coral
uncut lintel
#

but chromie time isnt even fast

tepid fiber
#

I mean, it kinda is

uncut lintel
#

damn so its sill gonna take me a day to hit 70 in p andoniumm

#

i wanna get my mounts

tepid fiber
#

They're saying the exp gain is scaled the same way

pallid coral
#

the issue is that the xp bonus is account-wide so the first 1-3 characters through the event will build up the xp bonus. and any further character will have the max xp bonus

tepid fiber
#

That's pretty convenient

uncut lintel
#

i meant for your first toon

#

i dont wanna spend leveling aolt i awnna go get mounts

#

i cant miss fomo

pallid coral
#

first toon is a hair faster than live

tepid fiber
#

Better get to questing and leveling then huh Kitty dracthyr_comfy_sip

uncut lintel
#

im already leveling 11 alts to farm kings rest but i just wanted to know for pandonium for more king rest alts if i dont have mount by the

#

thn

pallid coral
#

but after that first toon, you will have 100% xp bonus or more, so the second and 3rd characters will be faster

uncut lintel
#

going into TWW with no kings rest mount will suck tho voidge

#

okay

#

guess we will see

pallid coral
uncut lintel
#

so i can farm another mount

pallid coral
#

oh!!! ok

uncut lintel
#

and i just really want it

#

the mummy raptors always been a fav so

pallid coral
#

Thought it was a swag reason or something

uncut lintel
#

nah

#

but its on a weekly lockout so during these times i just level as much as i can

austere gazelle
tepid fiber
#

Most of it comes from just playing the content, I don't think much of a farm is required

#

Or luck, for that matter, since there's a vendor

clear apex
#

I had close to 2k getting to lv20 and doing 1 dungeon

#

Didn't feel too bad imo

tepid fiber
#

Yeah see

uncut lintel
#

i wanna hit max lvl to get to do those

clear apex
#

I'm really happy the autumn Phoenix is just for reaching lv20 since i missed out on the Phoenix during Mists

#

*in the general sense, i don't think the white one was even a thing

uncut lintel
#

i hope it stays that way

#

i love the phoenix

#

its so pretty

#

and give shen vibe

deep pawn
#

it's chiji colored

molten niche
#

it requires almost 1 million currency for all the mounts lol

#

to say it its not much of a farm is a lie.

clear apex
#

While I've no leg to stand on for this, I feel this will be a repeat event in the future since they pretty much confirmed that plunderstorm would

#

Who knows

molten niche
#

hopefully its a different xpac. like a good one like wrath or legion

#

plunderstorm i can see them making a strandalone gm and making it not require a sub to play

warm topaz
#

WoD would be amazing

winter jasper
#

Random question: is bronze account-wide or per character on ptr?

clear apex
# warm topaz i want to see WoD

I've seen a lot of people say this and i actually agree. While at the time it was slow with content updates, i think it would be cool with extra 'season of discovery' stuff like Remix is doing

#

Plus overall i do like the story and aesthetics

something happening to the bronze and they are becoming less powerful? hmmm

upper pasture
#

oh nvm these are old npcs

deep pawn
#

Yeah

#

Thought so. Most flights were struggling with their functions.

upper pasture
#

yeah makes sense since this would be post cata and the leaders giving up their powers would effect everyone.

#

You have to set the filter to all classes

tepid fiber
#

It's the same vendor filter as on live

molten niche
#

but then it comes down to do u actually wanna grind mindlessly for a currency that doesnt drop for crap. doesnt matter what difficulty or lvl u are crap seems to be the same drop/salavage rate

dense plover
#

and the amount increases as you level

#

and you get caches from achieves

#

which are repeatable on alts

clear apex
#

well arent there also gonna be weekly quests to get you more. I know there some for scenarios, raids and dungeons (unless those are non-weekly)

dense plover
#

you are flat wrong that you dont get more as you level

clear apex
#

idk seems no less difficult than getting gold.

dense plover
#

even the flight nodes give more

upper pasture
#

And dailies too

tepid fiber
#

Honestly it looks really refreshing

dense plover
#

im level 60 and the base nodes give 10+ now, the big ones 50+, mobs drop 6+, and caches give minimum 50

molten niche
#

is there any way to get to the vendors or u literally have to have the card

dense plover
#

im certain theres a boost at 70

clear apex
#

oh yeah those too, get the floaty bronze stuff over hills

dense plover
#

theyre in every zone

clear apex
#

you get like 4 per

#

well its random but my average was about 4

dense plover
clear apex
#

ah ok

upper pasture
#

And this is still ptr so they might tune the drops more before live

dense plover
#

the 2nd type can rarely give threads too

tulip sun
#

Did yall see the voicelines

dense plover
tepid fiber
#

And it doesn't seem like they're distanced that far apart if you wanna be zoomy about it, from what I've seen

upper pasture
#

Who knows heroic raids might give tens of thousands

dense plover
#

yeah no one has tested heroic raids yet

tepid fiber
molten niche
#

all im saying though is the way it currently is if u dont want to minldessly farm ur not going to get a majority of the transmogs cuz all the mounts if u dont have any is 855k

tepid fiber
#

The way it currently is sounds anything other than mindless

tulip sun
dense plover
tepid fiber
#

If anything, what's mindless is the amount of effort required

dense plover
#

i havent even hit 70 yet

#

but the point isnt to buy it all on one character

#

the point is to level a bunch of characters

molten niche
#

lol that is not the point

dense plover
#

because the achieves that give bronze caches are per character

dense plover
rain cave
dense plover
#

thats why the biggest part of the cloak is an xp buff

clear apex
#

the whole idea of the event is to lvl a toon to get to 70 and give exp bonus to more alts

dense plover
#

and every time you level it gets even faster

#

and again, a bunch of bronze is PER CHARACTER

tepid fiber
#

Doesn't the rate also increase on future alts?

dense plover
#

so you can repeat the story and exploration achieves to get more

clear apex
#

think so?

molten niche
#

if bronze was account wide yea sure but its not

dense plover
#

READ WHAT IM SAYING

#

ACHIEVES GIVE BRONZE

molten niche
#

yea who cares about per character

dense plover
#

THOSE ACHIEVES CAN BE REPEATED

tepid fiber
#

😵‍💫

molten niche
#

who cares not everyone needs to lvl multiple classes to 70

dense plover
#

SO YOU COULD LEVEL A BUNCH OF CHARACTERS AND GET ENOUGH TO BUY A FEW ITEMS PER CHARACTER

#

YOU DONT NEED TO BUY EVERYTHING ON ONE CHARACTER

#

THE UNLOCKS ARE ACCOUNTWIDE

tepid fiber
#

And those things that you unlock, per character, are unlocked on your account

clear apex
#

youre essentially not meant to do it all on one toon

dense plover
#

so for example, i could level 1 character to 70 and then another to 40 and with the 40, buy a bunch of stuff, and then delete them and level another to 40 and buy a bunch of stuff

tulip sun
molten niche
#

ok and? all im saying is no 1 wants ot fucking lvl more thna 1 character in a lame ass xpac. this dude is literally raging for no reason. not everyone needs to lvl another character i alrdy ahve every class 70 and some more than 1. there is no point in lvling up more than 1 character if the bronze isnt account wide.

clear apex
#

but if you dont like leveling alts, then it likely will not be as fun and be a grind

dense plover
#

IT CLEARLY ISNT FOR YOU

#

go grind these out on live

#

and miss out on the stuff

#

if you dont like it, you arent required to play

#

everything theyre adding is recolors

#

nothing new

molten niche
#

ok and yet let me guess u were one of the ppl crying over plunderstorm to huh? lol

tepid fiber
#

This is a great feature and event for those who enjoy it

dense plover
#

i havent touched plunderstorm

#

im missing out on the stuff

#

im sure itll be on the trading post eventually

molten niche
#

im not saying im not going to play all im saying is the currency needs to drop more cuz even at 70 ppl dont have crap for it

tepid fiber
#

On that same note, Peach isn't going around complaining about Plunderstorm

dense plover
#

ive bought like 5 transmog and 3 toys

#

and im not even level 70

#

have done none of the dailies

#

have barely done achieves

clear apex
#

I had 2k by lv20 thats shy a mount which honestly, is pretty good imo

dense plover
#

if i can do that on a full suite of characters, ill be able to buy all the stuff i care about

#

but im FAIRLY CERTAIN you ARENT supposed to be able to buy everything

clear apex
#

Likely not

dense plover
#

so that when this stuff shows up on the trading post, youll be able to get it there

tepid fiber
#

There are drops too, yeah?

dense plover
#

also, this event is going to last MONTHS

clear apex
#

or itll repeat, i hope

dense plover
#

doubtful

#

probably a once off for MoP

#

might do a different expac later tho

clear apex
#

eh maybe but they did say PS would likely be back

dense plover
#

like wrath or legion

tepid fiber
clear apex
#

well have it on rotation

dense plover
#

if they can make artifact weapons work again i could see them do legion

tepid fiber
#

Honestly I wouldn't mind this becoming the new system for Chromie Time for alts

clear apex
#

if they did one expac thing per quarter, that would be cool and it would be yearly

dense plover
#

cant do legion 1-70 without artifacts and have it be fun - it wouldnt be

tepid fiber
#

That would be interesting

dense plover
#

would stop being special

dense plover
#

the cloak kills that after the first character

tepid fiber
#

Oh, absolutely

clear apex
#

well idk then but point being, im sure they would want to appease people who might miss this one

dense plover
molten niche
#

lol its going to last from 10.2.7 to pre path

clear apex
#

anddd pandaria lasted a couple years and people didnt play it

dense plover
#

but i do suspect they will increase coin drops or make them drop from raids and dungeons in much larger quantities

dense plover
#

prepatch is at the earliest gonne be 2-3 months from 10.2.7

#

because season 4 is going to last 4-6 months

#

and plunderstorm ends in a few weeks

clear apex
#

maybe this will replace how they do timewalking events and/or chromie time

dense plover
#

10.2.7 will probably drop right after plunderstorm ends

dense plover
#

and i hope not

molten niche
#

10.2.7 mid may or late may is my guess after everyone alrdy is done with s4

dense plover
#

MAYBE 3 weeks

#

at most

tepid fiber
#

God I'm just so happy that there's so much stuff happening in WoW right now

molten niche
#

ksm by 2nd week the awakeneed/fated raid moiunt by week 3 boom ur done with s4

dense plover
#

most people do not no-life the game anymore

#

you can see it in the forum trends for when people start to complain

#

its taking almost 2 weeks more than it used to now

clear apex
#

we're adults now, with responsibilities

tepid fiber
#

Especially on Sundays

dense plover
#

the people who play wow are older

tulip sun
#

I am not that old, but still I aint gonna spend hours doing stuff

tepid fiber
tulip sun
#

Like for plunderstorm I have just done 10 levels per week- its like a little activity of 30 minutes a day.

#

if that

tepid fiber
#

Honestly it's more fun now than at the start when people were acting more... rabid

molten niche
#

one i got the rewards in plunderstorm i quit playing. boring game mode. its fune fun for a bit but to stale. would have taken me 1-2 days longer to hit 40 if they didnt change the rate of how fast u get it. took me 3 days from the day it launhed to hit 40 lol.

#

ill play the mop event but i alrdy know alot of ppl who wont play it or will play but probably wont hit max lvl cuz its mop. lol

#

and trinkets/neck/rings being locked behind acheives seems bad. and evidently raids are supposed to drop gear as well. from what a friend told me but the gear isnt in ptr.

#

u cant even upgrade them lol

tepid fiber
#

I don't know whether to feel sorry or disappointed

clear apex
#

why is having them behind achievs bad? iirc no gear goes with you to retail. I mean it might go with you but itll be converted to retail gear.
I think the fun abilities that exist outside your class take the place of trinkets.

#

Like having brittle and flame shield pop up like trinket abilities

tepid fiber
#

To me, anyway

#

I could be wrong

molten niche
#

they will probably give u a full set of base gear when its over cuz the gea ru can lvl up higher than the mythic gear in s4. s4 mythic gear 528 gear in the mop event 556

#

but idk if gear even drops that high or u literally have to waste ur bronze to lvl it up

#

ima just lvl 1 toon anyways i just odnt know the class.

deep pawn
#

hopefully when the chars become standard, be it 11.0 or launch, they don't give you min ilvl 430 gear haha

molten niche
#

lol give them the 424 gear set for a boosted lvl 70

tulip sun
#

Its a fun minigame to level and gear up for the new season

#

Why people gotta be all uppity about it

tepid fiber
#

Oh hang on let me dust this one off...

deep pawn
#

I'll admit I wanted something I could progress with my main especially since I have every class at 70 already.

tepid fiber
#

Because Gamers are the worst thing about gaming

molten niche
#

yea u cant gear for the new seaosn in it. lol i tihnk ur toon is trapped in it till the vent is over lol

clear apex
#

Yeah its a timerunner toon, it is locked to pandaria, it kinda makes sense

tulip sun
#

Probably get it for TWW launch

#

Which makes sense it is higher ilvl

tepid fiber
clear apex
#

What I meant by converting into retail is just removing all the trinket stuff and whatever else so it's just normal gear

#

and whatever is appropriate for ilvl

tepid fiber
#

I think it'll be the same as what happens to Timewarped gear

molten niche
#

i think that will be to hard. it will probably be like the option if u havent been on a toon in like forever from like legion or whatever and u click to play. it lets u either keep the gear u got or the 1 time option to pick a spec and u get a full set of gear for that spec

tepid fiber
#

The gear update, you mean

#

I don't think a gear update will be necessary if the item levels are staying the same

#

We might be overthinking this one too early

molten niche
#

but the ilvl wont be the same u will basically be higher gear than mythic raiders if ur able to get all ur gear to max in the event

#

by 30 ilvls

#

that gear will arry u all the way to lvl 80 and probably heroic dungeon gear in TWW lol

#

probably not that high but still

dense plover
#

no way they dont replace your gear

#

the gear is filled with sockets and statted wrong

upper pasture
#

not to mention the inflated stats on the maxxed gear

tepid fiber
#

Gotta see stats on TWW S1 gear dracthyr_hehe

#

But yeah these are pretty high

dense plover
upper pasture
#

42k stam on just a green

tepid fiber
#

Oh no you're probably right, I should have clarified, I didn't frame that more jokingly

#

Definitely a sarcastic dracthyr_hehe, swearsies 🤞

molten niche
#

An item from blizzcon/warbands

#

So its the gear will be close

upper pasture
#

they will probably give them a set of H item level gear or even normal on them. they differently wont be keeping the gear with all the goofy effects on them

warm topaz
#

probably something related to Alpha, or something else? the event is on Tuesday

dense plover
#

alpha is likely

#

maybe some cata stuff too

#

btw xp not working at 60 has killed my enthusiasm to test

#

i no longer can make any progress

#

i wonder if patch quests give xp or not

meager warren
#

Will gold sink mounts and other things be heavily reduced in price with auction house going away?

dense plover
#

AH isnt gone forever

#

its gone for MoP remix players

#

there is no MoP gold sink mount other than the transmog yak

#

and thats 134k with rep

#

its dirt cheap comparatively

deep pawn
#

I'm so stingy I haven't bought that sucker yet lol

dense plover
#

i bought it YEARS ago

silent urchin
#

xp from raid/dungeon bosses still works past 60

#

get almost an entire level from first LFR wing

#

and queues are quick even as dps

#

Hopefully they fix quests tho

thin warren
#

ah, so no solo dungeons or raids? :p

silent urchin
#

nah, still group content

#

should be pretty trivial to pug

#

it's a bit weird cause level scaling is all over the place

#

40-60 you level way too fast for gear/threads to keep up and so are constantly undergeared, plus the scaling makes hp/damage ramp up fast

#

will probably be able to solo a bunch of stuff once stats stabilise at 70

warm topaz
thin warren
#

maybe dungeons with followers

#

raids would indeed be weird, but since you are so OP it could be!

warm topaz
#

but nothing confiirmed

thin warren
#

cool! we will see

silent urchin
#

Managed to escape pandaria briefly. Found a working hero's call board which was handing out quests for other expansions (and the teleport items that weren't disabled)

#

sadly it ports you back soon after

warm topaz
#

yeah that was my guess too

silent urchin
#

that lines up with the CE launch, I think?

#

Or wait, that's wednesday

austere gazelle
#

yeah but they'll present it at the same time , and avoid opening the preorded at the same time if ppl are not following stuff, even if I doubt the collector will be in limited quantity

#

Even if I dont like this method, collector should be opened at a random time to trick scalpers

silent urchin
#

hmm, latest weekly reset from taliesin and evitel says "Next week is a very, very big week for wow"

warm topaz
#

well, we know that too

#

Alpha is coming

#

and something else? maybe more

austere gazelle
#

Maybe it'll also ties with metzen saying at blizzcon that they wanted to review expansion schedule but they were not ready to present it in details yet

silent urchin
#

I feel like it's more than just alpha

austere gazelle
#

obviously, they wont say " hey, it's just alpha, look at what we said a blizzcon once again " and be done with it 😄

#

I think it'll be a bigger scope, how the saga will work and how they'll tackle the release of new content throughout three expansion in a shorter time between each expack

silent urchin
#

Got exalted with shadopan like 1/4 in to townlong steppes

#

although a huge chunk came from the shado pan monastery dungeon quests

#

those were 6k each on heroic

#

definitely hugely boosted, not sure if just ptr

pulsar minnow
#

I could see them dropping a cinematic next week

#

Pretty hyped to see what’s in the collectors edition, as it’s not just TWW collectors edition but also the 20th anniversary

thin warren
#

yeah, can't wait nether!

#

i hope they do are packaged better than Dragonflight one

#

that one came in just a plastic wrap -_- had all corners rimpled

tepid fiber
#

Imagine if each one contained a tiny piece of the spitefully-destroyed Hellscream statue

thin warren
#

ha 😄

tepid fiber
#

I feel so badly for Chinese fans. Glad they're getting a spot back at the table again

thin warren
#

it's friendly of you to feel with the Chinese fans

pulsar minnow
#

My shadowlands one had a massive tear in where it opened. Luckily it’s hideable

thin warren
#

did it came in a box? or just a plastic wrapper?

upper pasture
#

Mine came wrapped in plastic wrap and inside a shipping box

thin warren
#

you have those fancy boxes for books where the corners are longer than the actual item inside it, so it can't get wrinkled on the corners

#

"fancy" is a big word, they are just a bit better designed for sensitive items

#

see, like this

upper pasture
#

I think the problem you’re describing is with the shipping company and not blizzard. Sure there are better suited boxes but FedEx/usps/whatever postal service shouldn’t be treating your box like a football

thin warren
#

true, i'm aware it's the shippingcompany and not Blizzard ^^ i'm happy to pay a bit more for a decent shippingbox :p

silent urchin
#

oh neat these tell you when you're done

thin warren
#

oh, that's a very smart tooltip!

silent urchin
#

it's also pretty easy to acquire all the ability gems, I think I was done by level 40 or 50 or so

#

Mains cloak and freshly created alts cloak (this is with the max level threads achievement, so presumably as powerful as alt cloaks get). Main hasn't received any new +exp gain buffs for a while, but if it's not actually shared I guess that's fair

#

still pretty damn powerful for level 10 but it doesn't feel anywhere near as account wide as we were lead to believe

#

although 315% extra exp gain from the start is nice

#

Once you hit 65 and start getting the +12 stat at a time threads it scales real fast, and ultimately the stats on it seem pretty low compared to what you get on gear that's upgraded in ilvl

#

so I don't think it's super important

tepid fiber
#

Pretty much

upper pasture
#

Basically it’s a nice leveling tool until you max it out or atleast start to hit 1k+ with stats. You don’t get main stats anywhere else do you?

silent urchin
#

you get main stat on weapon

#

and I think a couple other pieces of armour

#

gear that's rare+ quality also contains a small amount of the stat it doesn't get by default, either stamina or mainstat

#

but mostly weapon and just baseline stats, I think

mint tusk
#

on epic chest its 77 strength on ilvl of 444, so not a lot, not sure if its worth farming for

#

also items from account wide achievments dont seem to be given to other chars

silent urchin
#

achievements are pretty janky atm anyway

mint tusk
#

ye didnt get my ring :c

silent urchin
#

Was trying to get the heroic dungeon one done but it resets with either daily reset or relogging

#

same with a lot of the quest ones

mint tusk
#

at ilvl 70, all dropped items are 346, doesnt matter if from rares, worldbosses, or whatever
(didnt check raid, since its quite impossible to find groups for it xD)

silent urchin
#

I'd hope it gets higher in raids but yeah, didn't get to check

#

there's no discount on upgrading pieces when you already have one of a higher ilvl :(

mint tusk
#

would love to test how powerfull one is with max equip, but it really takes a good while to farm bronze xd

silent urchin
#

yeah, those last few levels are super expensive

#

but all gems scale with the ilvl of the thing they're socketed in

#

and by a lot

#

don't have that much time this weekend and only got my gear to 458

Someone made a checklist on Reddit for all the vendors

#

It’s about 1.5 million total bronze to get all vendor items (but that includes class specific so it’s a little less I guess)

molten niche
#

yea u need 855k for all the mounts

silent urchin
#

it's very likely you already have at least some

#

plus you get a bunch from regular drops

molten niche
#

i dont lol

#

transmogs yea like i completed a few alrdy just from drops

zealous sedge
#

Does anyone know if you have to filter the achievements for time walking or if blizzard just eliminated all the other achievements outside of MoP remix?

molten niche
#

its its own category in the acheivement panel

zealous sedge

I hate the achievement journal in general tbh. It’s outdated. Hope they update it at some at some point.

zealous sedge
molten niche
#

wish there was a way to see how much thread u have in ur claok though

silent urchin
#

I think it's literally just adding up all the stats

#

which is pretty awkward

#

I don't really know why the achievements don't track the number

molten niche
#

na i dont think its that cuz some of the thread u get gives like 12 stamina so does that count as 1 or 12

upper pasture
#

I mean, purples threads just count as 12 green ones

#

Or regular ones

#

White

molten niche
#

but for acheivement does it count as 12 or 1

silent urchin
#

it's definitely counted as 12

#

going from the 2200 to 4200 achievement did not need 2k individual pickups

molten niche
#

would it be better to do all quests or just do the mains tory quests

mint tusk
#

for the achievments, probs all

achievements mostly just need the storyline, although given that's been retrofitted to mop that's a bit odd

#

they're clearly marked tho

molten niche
#

the ones with the wings or just the plain exclamation? cuz for jade forest alone u need alot of progress

#

and im barelt 4/12 with jade forest

silent urchin
#

shields are the zone meta quests, the wing icon ones seem to be the various rep faction questlines

#

the meta achievements are pretty broken, progress resets on them a lot

molten niche
#

what about those lol

silent urchin
#

those are just regular side quests that don't seem to be required for anything

molten niche
#

ahh ok yea i couldnt figure out which was wich lol i m just doing all quests i come by

dense plover
#

lots of side quests are excluded from this type of highlighting

#

i think theyre like the ones in dragonflight - zone relevant but not campaign relevant

molten niche
#

i plan on doing all quests anyways cuz why not complete 1 zone all the way then go to the next

#

and u ahve to get the back peice all the way max lvl to get the bak peie transmogs in retail

gold cap
Yeah, i'll never have that

upper pasture
#

Getting gold cap is more real now than before. It’s just a matter of how much effort you put in into getting it

#

Well. Not legion mission tables level of ease but every 3 days or so there’s like 12k gold just waiting on the map

meager warren
#

12k gold isn't enough to buy a 5mil gold mount, i'd have to do that every day for a long time

upper pasture
#

I mean, sure but you don’t just go out and buy something expensive in real life you have to save up and plan for it.

#

You can easily earn a token each week if you were to try. It’s more about the effort you are putting in

dense plover
#

idk how you connected remix to the brutosaur

meager warren
#

Guess not

#

bye

#

well, Alpha on wednesday?

deep pawn
#

unless he's travelling for a media event and can't get back in time

#

Wednesdays do seem most likely

molten niche
#

is alpha under nda?

upper pasture
molten niche
#

so then so why would then guy even worry about stupid liquid stream for an alpha if its nda

upper pasture
#

What?

pulsar minnow
#

Alpha is under nda right now

#

It won’t be under nda when alpha launches to the public

#

So that’s why max’s stream could be significant

molten niche
#

a public alpha isnt only select few ppl lol. they dont let enough ppl into the alphas. hell they havent even released all the hero talent trees like they wanted to if alpha supposedly comes out next week

#

thats more like a closed alpha.

upper pasture
#

We could in theory get the rest of the class specs tomorrow or Tuesday then public alpha/beta Wednesday. Which is why max is saying no stream until Wednesday since he will be traveling and not available to stream until then.

#

Or the specs and alpha/beta at the same time like “here’s the rest of the hero talents and now test it”

#

And when blizzard lets a lot of people into the alpha/beta who really won’t lose anything from “leaking it” that’s when they generally lift the nda because it becomes too much of a hassle to enforce

#

They’re not gonna sue some nobody with the net worth of a cheese burger for leaking a screenshot

deep pawn
#

Alpha is free publicity

#

They haven't tried to keep an alpha under NDA for a long time.

#

Granted what we now call public alpha would have just been a beta years ago

#

It was Shadowlands or DF they made the decision that beta now only starts when testing is feature complete

upper pasture
#

Not really, usually I refer internal testing, content creators the alpha/ public testing and optin, winning a ticket the beta

deep pawn
#

I can only use blizzard terms.

clear apex
#

I almost don't want to go back to retail right now after the ptr fun

clear apex
molten niche
#

yea so ppl who have alwyas got into beta should get into alpha imo

clear apex
#

Nah

upper pasture
#

Oh for sure, just generally speaking alpha/beta differences

clear apex
#

People get beta and don't play or they don't report bugs

#

They want bragging rights to say "lmao i got it but won't be playing"

pulsar minnow
#

Tbh beta is just early access for a lot of people

deep pawn
#

I was in MoP beta and back then it didn't require feature complete. An entire zone was missing and the entire temple of chiji was untextured

upper pasture
#

People who get into betas and report should get into it if they continue to report bugs and be helpful but just getting an invite shouldn’t get you into all wow betas forever

clear apex
#

Yeah that sounds more like an alpha

deep pawn
#

Blizzard changed their terminology in the last few expansions

#

I don't spoil the stories or quests for myself, but I do use beta to test talents and classes

pulsar minnow
#

They don’t report, and honestly I can’t say I reported much either during beta for DF. Granted, DF’s beta was pretty bug free by the time I got access. Still, I wouldn’t open the floodgates like that

clear apex
#

Yeah i got df beta the week before launch so i didn't bother

pulsar minnow
#

Also super random but I just noticed, there’s no beta opt-in this time around for TWW?

clear apex
#

Cause of epic edition id imagine

molten niche
#

yea cuz everyone is buying it

pulsar minnow
#

That’s what I figured

deep pawn
#

It's never been just a beta opt in, but maybe this time they aren't doing that at all so players who spend the money "get the value"

molten niche
#

ive been all the betas since wod. i test things but i dont evener make it to end game cuz dont wanan get burned out. i report bugs if i find them. i mianly just do quests really.

clear apex
#

I had wod beta, bad times lol

#

Everyone got stuck trying to load into garrison and we fell through the planet

molten niche
#

lol the spyglass was the worst

silent urchin
#

iirc bfa alpha was NDA. Shadowlands was not. Dragonflight had a big launch for "watch streamers play"

#

it pretty much leaks instantly once its outside of F&F alpha anyway

deep pawn
#

If there was an NDA BfA alpha it wasn't one that had a lot of content creators

silent urchin
#

oh, bfa says free to publicly share on the old email. Maybe it was legion that last had an NDA

deep pawn
#

Google suggests MoP had a media NDA that lasted a few days, but I'm pretty sure that Cata was the last that had any real testing with an NDA that wasn't employee only

#

for ppl who got the time to play a bit of the event, how hard is it to farm the bronze to get the cosmetic things?

#

was only able to play a few hours here and there so never got ot max lvl

austere gazelle
deep pawn
#

I imagine it takes a long time to get everything

#

most people got like 10k over a few hours?

#

takes 100ks to get everything

uncut lintel
#

😏

elder fjord
uncut lintel
#

i wanna kno whos gonna be the one to farm for all the mounts

deep pawn
#

I just want bronze to be account wide

#

I do think they are possibly making this all too expensive

#

but who knows

#

IF they can promise up front this even returns yearly or something maybe, but if this is one and done and the next one is WoD or something, it has to be doable on one character without that much work

molten niche
#

asked a few ppl who hit 60 and some who hit 70 if they think getting bronze is a little to low and they said yes the rate u get isnt high enough to even put a dent into anything

deep pawn
#

I personally feel that you should earn enough bronze for most things by the time you finish all the achievements

molten niche
#

ill try but if they dont increase bronze rate i dont see it happening lol

upper pasture
#

i feel like endgame stuff will give you loads of it.

#

rare mounts being in a vendor is generating a lot of debate

#

any thoughts here?

upper pasture
#

old content, doesn't matter to me. it's been 10+ years. it's not like they are adding fyrakks mythic mount to a vendor. people should grow up.

silent urchin
#

it's more interesting content in remix than having 60 alts running the same raid every week

little hound
#

People needs to get over being so damn entitled about RNG % Mount drops.

#

"WAAAH! I GOT IT IN 39 ATTEMPTS! NO FAIR YOU GET IT FOR FREE! WAAAAH!"

cosmic beacon
#

people didnt suffer as much as i did doing content i didnt want to do for a mount i will never use again sadge

elder fjord
#

maybe just running heroic dungeons/scenarios

#

and turning into bronze

elder fjord
#

im fine with rare mounts being there

#

hell some of the tcg mounts were given as drops

#

and tabards so

#

if it was current content rare mounst thats a different story for sure

molten niche
elder fjord
#

yeah i figured repeating heroics and stuff

#

at end game would give some

#

more*

#

ppl were saying caches at end game gives a good chunk

cosmic beacon
#

i think mop remix needs some tuning

ionic terrace
#

i can fnally be discount kael

And like 99% of it was one ability

#

Oh my bad 91%

elder fjord
#

is that a new gem ability?

winged dagger
#

i doubt their will be differences, but the timed event wanderer's festival seems to be working okay

winged dagger
#

festival is the same, still friggin beautiful

silent urchin
#

Seems that level 70 characters convert to basically have had an enhanced boost

#

415 gear, 10.0 renowns complete, etc

#

lower levels get similar to the gear upgrade option

#

Down to 30 slot bags at 70

deep pawn
#

Pity they are apparently not expanding character slots

silent urchin
#

I'd be very surprised if they didn't, there's a lot of people with capped slots

thin warren
#

cut some alts down :p

#

60 alts lol
