Humm

grizzled sleet
#

And Warfront will give a piece of 970 ilvl before raid open ?

#

Or will it open the same week as Mythic+ and raid too?

hollow dock
#

I mean.

#

970 ilvl isn't the right number?

grizzled sleet
#

Warfront weekly quest rewards a 970 ilvl piece

zealous basalt
#

Are you sure 970?

grizzled sleet
#

Yes

zealous basalt
#

Dont you mean 160?

hollow dock
#

yea that's a bug

grizzled sleet
#

euh

#

370

#

sorry

zealous basalt
#

Ah

hollow dock
#

most certainly no. If Warfronts give ilvl equivalent of raids, it'll be tuned down

#

just like Mythic+

grizzled sleet
#

Okay

hollow dock
#

Trust me, any 'exploits' you think of blizzard has most likely thought of it

grizzled sleet
#

I'm just thinking about all possible ways of gearing after BFA launch

ruby star
#

Yeah I got item level 370 wrists from Warfronts πŸ˜›

#

and a 340 belt

hollow dock
#

well

#

mythic+

#

warfronts

#

raids

#

dungeons

#

that's all your ways of gearing

ruby star
#

^

grizzled sleet
#

I mean, before raid open

hollow dock
#

they'll block out the limits just like they did for Legion

grizzled sleet
#

and there is PvP too

hollow dock
#

You won't 'out gear' the raids immediately :p

#

PVP falls under the same blocks

#

Just like Legion

grizzled sleet
#

I think they said that this time pvp season may start with the expansion but with only fully open when raid tier is open

hollow dock
#

Most certainly. Just as I said: Falls under the same blocks to prevent people outgearing the raid

@restive sage They're awesome. I'm loving Zuldazar. It's just so soothing and very jungle-like.

#

Horde is getting the best zones

pulsar minnow
#

Not at all.

#

The Alliance ones are beautiful

#

It comes down to your opinion really

zinc sandal
#

They are, but not as much. I don’t care for pirates.

pulsar minnow

I just love the tropics

zinc sandal

Drustvar hags, though. 😍

#

Gewd shite

That's only Tiragarde Sound. Drustvar is awesome.

And Stormsong?!

I don’t wanna get too deep into it, β€˜cause at some point I’ll have to redo it in Live. XD

pulsar minnow

Same

#

I haven't done anything in Horde continents. Except the Port of Zandalar stuff. But I loved the Alliance stuff.

zinc sandal
#

Yeah, I’ve done a couple of quests Horde-side.

#

My main will remain the same, but I’m deciding between Zandalari priest or warlock as an alt.

#

How is Pally shaping up in BFA? Is ret fun?

ruby star

Ret Paladin from what I've played is actually quite good

#

How different is it to Legion?

i think theres a class change guide

#

gimme a sec

ruby star
#

I think its plays very similar to legion

dense plover

terse patrol
#

tbh the real travesty is the differences between Horde and Alliance bases.

#

Alliance bases in Zandalar are tiny tent camps.

#

The Horde have full on bases.

#

in Kul Tiras.

uncut vault
#

you keep saying that but they have different purposes

#

horde has one actual base of their own that they built

#

and are launching an invasion to conquer Kul Tiras

#

Alliance is scouting the enemy to prepare for fighting

dense plover
#

^

#

horde has 1 full on base, stormsong

#

and thats because they got there first

#

then it got burned down

#

then the player comes and repairs and reinforces it

#

and alliance camp in voldun is pretty serious

#

horde has almost no territory there, so thats a big deal

terse patrol
#

@uncut vault two

#

One in Drustvar, one in Stormsong.

#

Gallywix uses his goblin tech to throw one together.

uncut vault
#

the actual base is anyport, which is a neutral area

#

but the outpost up there is not big

terse patrol
#

also, Draenor atm lol

uncut vault
#

hmm

terse patrol
#

My guess is

#

Sylvanas breaks out her Azerite weapon.

#

@uncut vault

#

And it works way too well.

uncut vault
#

"shooting them with fire" is very specific

#

if it was just an "oops our machines caught them on fire" Id see it just called lighting them on fire

sharp bluff
#

But Sylvanas isn’t a mortal πŸ€”

#

Not anymore

zealous basalt
#

To dragons

#

Anything that isnt a dragon is morral

#

Mortal

uncut vault
#

even dragons are mortal

zealous basalt
#

If you ain't a dragon

#

But you know how they are

#

"Mortal"

hollow dock
#

'Mortal' in the WoW universe is applied to anything not seen as some form of titanic or godly. Like the dragons now consider themselves mortal. Since they are just that

hollow dock

Very high. All the time.

As a Nelf RPer, that's a must.

hollow dock

no elf is 20k years old

10k is pushing it.

zealous basalt
#

20k is draenei

zinc sandal
#

Except for people like Malfurion, Tyrande, Illidan, etc etc etc

zealous basalt
#

And they are more humble

zinc sandal
#

But no, they're not 20k

hollow dock
#

those are all 10k.

zinc sandal
#

They are over 10k

uncut vault
#

malf, tyrande, and illidan are about 10,500 years old at most

zinc sandal
#

Source?

hollow dock
#

that's still over 10k. But they were young while the Well was happening

#

so I doubt they were more than a thousand

zinc sandal
#

Young is relative for nelves

hollow dock
#

yes and below a thousand

#

is still young

zinc sandal
#

Someone 5k years old is probably still young

hollow dock
#

How

#

the night elf empire is 2000 years old

by the time the well of eternity happens

O.o

5k years old right now

I didn't say they were 5k

Malf and Turande are starting to suck unnecessary oxygen if they keep losing

All nelves do is lose

At least on their own

Draenei are effectively immortal

I think they just age to a point probably and stop.

The keg of Azerite power

I like it

And also

#

Is it possible that it can form 'Azerite elementals'?

dense plover
#

no

#

elementals arise from aggitated stuff

#

not from gathered material

#

usually

tropic trail
#

But it's still possible then?

#

Because throwing usually in there tells me there's exceptions

my feral druid loses the artifact skin

I can not tranfigure batons

I hardly see daggers

I mean yeah, if its a 2h weapon, you can also change it into a polearm

#

my problem is when I have a 2h weapon that gives better statistics than two daggers

zealous basalt
#

for the artifact skin?

tropic trail
#

yes

zealous basalt
#

Like the daggers for the druid or you want the cat form?

tropic trail

yes

polearms or batons

Weird

letme ping an expert in betas

@uncut vault

#

Yo m8

uncut vault
#

hi

zealous basalt
#

this man here has doubts

uncut vault
#

Druids using daggers (assuming you're feral) was basically a Legion only thing. Normally, druids cannot dual wield, and haven't used daggers seriously since around BC. If you go to the transmogrifier, and pull down the panel to choose a weapon, you can see your artifact daggers, and transmog over any weapon, polearm included. Druids will be using staffs and polearms this xpac, but you can get your artifact appearances by right clicking one of the daggers in the Artifact appearance tab, and choosing which tint you want. Unfortunately, you're locked to only those dagger appearances, unlike Legion, but you get your form.

zealous basalt
#

Thanks m8

tropic trail
#

is bug

#

do not let me accept when I change it

uncut vault
#

oh, yeah, theyre not working atm

just another person on my blocked list - now they cant try and add me as a friend either

yeah anything faction specific

grizzled sleet

does war mode do anything about the balance of phasing from cross realms betwene factions?

Yes, non-RP realms will see people from many servers

How many weekly quests or quests related to war mode?

uncut vault
#

I dont believe there are quests explicitly related to war mode beyond the intro "kill one player" one

#

but the airdrops constantly spawn

grizzled sleet
#

Okay

#

So people can make raids for war-mode ? If they added some weekly quests they could have limited the groups to 5 people

supple wharf
#

so far i see horde raids always going at arom's stand until soemone gets assassin then they go hide in the hills guarding, killing anyone that comes

#

rest of the war mode horde go camp 5-10 deep at the teleporter in silithus gankin littles otw to get their necklace πŸ˜‰

The World Quests in Pre-Patch, can you do them at any level and for exp like Legion Pre-Patch?

viral terrace
#

I have a few inquiries about the beta

#

On the PTR the artifact appearances are bugged

#

Is it fixed in the Beta?

grizzled sleet
#

There is no exp boost like Legion pre-patch

#

And pre-patch quests and world quests are level 110 only

heavy cairn
#

do the pre-patch quests / world quests require completion of silithus story on every character you want to do them on?

rich apex
#

Probably-definitely not

heavy cairn
#

so it seems the general opinion here changed

#

well fair enough, some people also thought artifact "retirement" cutscene would occur in prepatch and cause deletion of the artifact, rather than the overflowing thing

#

I can see why prepatch content would be viewed as separate from silithus, then

restive sage
#

yea does anyone else have the bug where your artifact weapons gets HUGE when you change the appearance

heavy cairn
#

I've never seen that bug

#

oh on the PTR?

#

haven't played there yet, so nvm

restive sage
#

i heard its on the beta too

tranquil steeple
#

wtb option to have all legion legendaries deleted in bfa, once you hit 115 (where they stop working besides for stats)

viral terrace
#

On the PTR, you know how the demon hunter appearance has the same for both weapons

#

When you go onto the PTR, one of them is defaulted to the default appearance

#

Instead of the one you decided on

#

And you have to transmog it to a different colour

zealous basalt
#

Selathia

#

Selatharia

#

But

Timewalk

tranquil steeple
#

gear downscales, and pretty sure the legendary effects are still disabled since you're over 115

zealous basalt
#

The effects of other legendaries still are active in tw

tranquil steeple
#

which is why I specifically mentioned it to delete legion legendaries, since they normally can't be deleted and are the only ones who have the "equip effect disabled after 115"

viral terrace
#

I heard that legendaries won't be in this expansion and that azerite armour will replace it, is this true?

hollow dock
#

yup

#

@tranquil steeple the legendary cloak and ring is disabled outside of TW, but enabled in there. o; The legion legendaries have no reason to be different

tranquil steeple
#

I'm expecting them to not work due to the "won't work when above level 115" since TW doesn't change your actual level.. but well, they might... so change my initial statement from "option to delete all" into "be able to delete legion legendaries of your own choice", since some are kinda useless

rich apex
#

Leggo procs are disabled at 115

#

Nothing's being deleted

tranquil steeple
#

Still feel people would like the option of being able to get rid of SOME of them so they don't take bag/bank space for all eternity

That's still space wasted just because you can't delete something at all

it changes your levle Sela

You've got 80 space in the void storage and 80 extra space since WOD, it's far enough to store your legendaries, don't tell me you're using 160 space in the void storage?

you're bumped down to 70/80/85/90

@grizzled sleet Nuts. Thanks for answering.

hollow dock

@tranquil steeple The legendary cloak disables at 100. The ring at 110. They still work in TW.

beta is kool

restive sage
#

they need to let me into the beta

#

😠

hollow dock
#

Why? It's a month away. At this point, I'd say just wait it out.

restive sage
#

because i want to see inside of bfa

terse patrol
#

its about to come out tho

#

why spoil it

zealous basalt
#

Ye

grizzled sleet
#

Beta doesn't spoil anything unless you decide to quest and explore everything. Everything else you can already see it on wowhead, twitch or youtube so it's not a spoil

hollow dock
#

But you can otherwise

#

see it all on the PTR

#

if you're not doing the quests/exploration

grizzled sleet
#

If you don't want to do quest / exploration you can simply level through, you will also learn them at the same time to prepare for BFA.

#

oops

#

through dungeons*

hollow dock
#

dungeons still spoil tho

grizzled sleet
#

not really, when you don't really understand their context

restive sage
#

i just wanna run around in the new areas

#

dont even need to do any quests

hollow dock
#

You don't need context when you see like. Borealus being destroyed by the horde to know that Borealus is attacked and destroyed by the horde

#

O.o

stone seal
#

I'm really happy I got into the beta!

#

Do the characters you make get 110 or are they fresh when u make them?

zealous basalt
#

110

restive sage
#

i hope they take away all your 110s

#

on live

strange falcon
#

wot

zealous basalt
#

They do

#

Characters on beta dont go live

restive sage
#

wut

dense plover
#

they get wiped

#

nothing from beta carries over

#

its beta

#

thats how it works

strange falcon
#

i understood it like "they take away 110s from live"

zealous basalt
#

I mean

#

Either way

#

We have beta you not

restive sage
#

i want beta

#

and yes dafire is right

#

-Bv-Sapper2105 - Today at 1:08 PM
i hope they take away all your 110s
on live

#

apparently you guys thought live meant beta???

hollow dock
#

calm down dude

#

it's just a game

restive sage
#

i am calm

#

i was just saying who got what i said lol

zealous basalt
#

Why u want our 110s to be away tho

strange falcon
#

b-cuz he jealous

grizzled sleet
#

The only way to take away our 110s from us is to get us perma banned, and to do so you must contract with the old gods and send us their whispers

O.o

@hollow dock isn't Siege of boralus a lvl 110 mythic dungeon only ?

#

120*

restive sage
#

jealous of what

dense plover
#

why would they take 110s away? its an mmo - leveling up is the point

zealous basalt
#

He said that with ill intention

#

Like if he wanted that blizzard took our 110s away

#

Just for having beta

dense plover
#

well thats moronic

zealous basalt
#

Indeed

dense plover
#

if anything, that attitude is a reason you dont have beta

#

because in all likelihood, you express that attitude in game as well, and blizzard has a full record of that

viral terrace
#

Why do people think that blizz doesn't have records of this stuff?

hollow dock
#

For some reason they think data works differently than it actually does

grizzled sleet
#

When Blizzard takes a look at your records and realize that you've given so much for so little, and that your true potential, your redemption lies before you, they give you beta access

terse patrol
#

i mean

dense plover
#

i mean, i think its more - do you have a good attitude towards others? have you provided feedback in the past? was that feedback useful? Did you report bugs in the past? What type of content do you participate in? What posts have you made on the forums? RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR

terse patrol
#

i got beta for the first time since i started wow in BC

#

so

dense plover
#

have you played ptr at all?

terse patrol
#

sometimes you just dont get lucky

#

yes, but not extensively

dense plover
#

specifically during 7.3.5 ptr when they asked for feedback?

terse patrol
#

o

#

youre talking to him

dense plover
#

no, im just talking in general

near cosmos
#

its not all about you JEEZ

#

πŸ˜›

grizzled sleet
#

Play ptr in BFA, and give some feedbacks and report bugs and you will get beta access just like @dense plover

dense plover
#

like this is the type of stuff they want

#

pretty much

#

i do ptr when they ask

#

i even report bugs on live when I find them

#

both ingame and on forums

terse patrol
#

ye. I got in after 99% of stuff was already troubleshot. I was let in likely because of the stress test.

#

I did send a couple bug reports tho

#

Battle for Lordaeron would break for the Alliance sometimes right after Jaina shows uo

#

grizzled sleet

We’ll be adding an β€œadvertisement” option to the Group Finder’s right-click reporting function with Patch 8.0, but in the meantime, they can be reported using the β€œspam” option. Thank you for your understanding, and for helping us keep the Group Finder clear of unwanted advertisements.

dense plover
#

awesome

#

making groupfinder useful since they are making WQGF worthless

near cosmos
#

you mean we can report people who try to sell runs in lefeger?

dense plover
#

in any part of groupfinder

#

you cant sell runs there anymore at all

#

trade chat only

near cosmos
#

wew lad
not that Ive seen many of them but then I dont use the group finder for raids cause Im a filthy casul

#

I dont understand why they killed WQGF tho
The addon is just gonna give us a string to paste into the description or something, and its not gonna make the content more engaging 3 months down the line

dense plover
#

my guess is it was because it made world quests too easy for basic ones

#

and it may have also been mucking up server phasing stuff

#

part of keeping an mmo relevant is making sure the time investment is there

near cosmos
#

so the solution is to make it harder to group cross languages :thonk:

dense plover
#

i dont think they will keep it this way

#

people will complain

hollow dock
#

I mean

#

you can report people now

#

before this change

#

O.o

#

Im confused. what does this change actually entail?

uncut vault
#

theyre actually going to be stopping the carry sells now

viral terrace
#

Well

#

In-game gold carries in raids are still going to be fine as long as they're advertised over the in-game chat and not in the group finder

near cosmos
#

ngl if I was cash money rich ingame Id buy carries but not for real money

hollow dock
#

this doesn't stop them from being put up

#

you just get to specifically report them for something

#

Which it's spam anyways.

#

O.o

#

Did you guys really just not report carry groups as spam?

dense plover
#

i rarely saw them

#

i mean

#

the thing is, it wasnt spam to post a carry group for gold prior to this ruling

hollow dock
#

for gold no

#

I never bothered reporting them

#

but linking off to another website I certainly reported

#

and those have been pretty common. More so with 735

uncut vault
#

so theres the change you were looking for, it is now all carries in the group finder

hollow dock
#

I mean. I still won't report those that are selling for in game gold?... (Again the post just says that you can report them for advertisement. Not that they will stop all together)

uncut vault
#

just because you dont want to use the feature and help uphold the policy doesnt mean it isnt there

dense plover
#

^

#

this is a big deal

#

it now means tthe only people there will be people looking for your character, not your gold

#

if you want to sell runs for gold, you now must do it in trade chat

tropic trail
#

I'd rather kms before I pay for a carry tbh

hollow dock
#

Just. How is it a big deal? o.o

#

again the only thing that changed is that they're reported for advertisement over spam

dense plover
#

if you havent noticed, then it isnt a problem for you

hollow dock
#

gollyjeethat'salotofchange

dense plover
#

selling for gold was allowed

hollow dock
#

It's been a problem for me

dense plover
#

it wasnt sspam

hollow dock
#

Agai

#

n

#

again*

#

I never reported

#

for selling gold. Only when it

#

directed

#

to another website

dense plover
#

yeah

hollow dock
#

which mean for real money

dense plover
#

now you cant sell fopr gold tho

hollow dock
#

which is spam

#

Again nothing stopping me from putting it up

#

I can just get reported

#

for doing so

dense plover
#

except you might get reported and possibly banned

hollow dock
#

which I could before.

#

Literally no change has occured.

dense plover
#

you arent understanding

#

stop for one sec

#

before this ruling, the only thing that was reportable for spam, was selling for real money or linking to a website. selling for gold was allowed

#

following this ruling, gold AND advertising are both not allowed

#

gold can still be advertised in trade chat

#

there is a difference now

#

before - gold for carry was allowed in groupfinder

#

after - it is not

hollow dock
#

I don't see how. Before you can get banned if the right GM sees you as breaking the rule

dense plover
#

the rule changed

hollow dock
#

great? The actual reality hasn't changed much

dense plover
#

gold for carry is no longer allowed in group finder

tropic trail
#

...But it still happens.

dense plover
#

and now that they have a specific advertising option, they will probably automate it

#

so that if you get lots of advertising rreports, you get auto-modded

viral terrace
#

Selling raid carries for gold is still allowed as long as its done via trade chat

hollow dock
#

should

#

not will.

dense plover
#

and if you dont]

#

you can get reported

#

i guarantee the purpose of this is automating it

#

in which case, it will work

viral terrace
#

If they do put an automated system in for this then it could be abused?

tropic trail
#

Of course it can

#

Anything can be abused

dense plover
#

but in general, it wont be

#

and if you abuse it, it will quickly become obvious and you wont be allowed to use the report option and have it be counted

tropic trail
#

I think a lot of things about the report system should be refined

#

Because false reporting has also been an issue, especially in the last few years

dense plover
#

they can always reverse a false report

tropic trail
#

If you make a ticket about it, yeah

#

Or call them, or whatever

uncut vault
#

cant call anymore, sadly

tropic trail
#

I'm just saying it's an issue

#

Oh?

dense plover
#

its much harder to manually review reports than it is to review false reports

west relic
#

Time to go patrol the forums.

#

This one should be fun.

zealous basalt
#

oof

uncut vault
#

yeah they took out the phone option

zealous basalt
#

What are you going to do there?

uncut vault
#

tickets only now

tropic trail
#

But still, false reporting is still an issue

west relic
#

Sure, it's an issue.

#

But all tickets are handled by a live human orc

#

So a margin of error is expected anyways.

#

Regardless, it's not like you can't refute a ticket lodged against you and have a second set of eyes look at it and come to a conclusion.

dense plover
#

exactly; as i said - it is easier to revoke a false report than to review every report made

tropic trail
#

But it would still be nice for something to be in place where the 9 year olds won't report me because I made them tilted

dense plover
#

theyre going to do it either way

#

and those reports eventually stop meaning anything

#

if you report stuff ALL the time, i have a feeling they stop accepting your reports

#

'boy who cried wolf' syndrome if you will

tropic trail
#

But still, if you got an angry "My dad owns Blizzard" kid and they report you because you focus them in an arena or elsewhat they will report you for whatever reason they can use

#

"Hes hakking"

dense plover
#

yeah

#

and it will mean nothing

#

one report isnt enpugh

#

you need lots of consecutive reports

tropic trail
#

Still resulted me getting banned.

#

"Oops!"

dense plover
#

generally no it wont

#

1 report isnt enough

#

5 isnt enough

#

you probably need 10s of reports

tropic trail
#

Because when I got banned it was for "Buying gold with real money"

#

Which I never did

hollow dock
#

I mean heck. I've seen legitimate posts get banned from the forums because some kids that didn't like it and report bombed it.

tropic trail
#

^

rich apex
#

If you think you got false banned, you email customer service

hollow dock
#

Asmongold even proved it's a legitmate thing. He got a group of 39 people report him for saying 'LOL'

tropic trail
#

And I did

rich apex
#

Blizz wants you to keep giving them money, after all

hollow dock
#

Oh it didn't matter hyper. since the post is gone

#

they can't do anything about it.

#

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

dense plover
#

yes

#

and itll happen

#

but the amount of false reports is MILES lower than the amount of real ones

tropic trail
#

And usually there is no consequences.

dense plover
#

it saves time and money

hollow dock
#

I'm doubtful. the movement for high elves has essentially stagnated since those that are feverishly against it have begun report bombing all suggestions for them. Even if they're new ideas with suggestions to implement them in the future

dapper cosmos
#

Has anything been announced about the armor set you get from completing The Chosen, unlocking all the armor types in BfA?

@dapper cosmos "Has anything been announced about the armor set you get from completing The Chosen, unlocking all the armor types in BfA?"

Yes. The box ensembles will be removed alongside the title and the achievement. If you don't get them now you won't be able to get them later.

#

Do note that the pieces of the set do drop individually from the bosses, except for the Helm and the Shoulders (arguably the most important parts of a set), which can only be obtained through the box ensemble.

eligibility is the chance of you getting picked

don't worry man

it is all random

hopefully the reward preview for islands will be in this build

i doubt it will be much

bugfixes mostly

we've already covered all possible content they're willing to release to us

biggest stuff will be more balance changes

as i said, last build was nerfs

#

expect buffs this build

#

for those that need it

ruby star
#

what about the Druid moonkin form for Kul'tirans?

dense plover
#

unlikely

#

they havent been working on it because it isnt relevant for launch

hollow dock

#

at this point, it's just relevant things for launch.

dense plover
#

first ptr patch following launch will probably have it

#

they have a little over a month

#

this is bug fixes, QoL, balance

#

new content is not happening at this point

obtuse token
#

I wonder if we'll ever fight Chromatus

dense plover
#

new music and sounds are possible though

uncut vault
#

the final two druid forms will probably be in 8.1, all the others are, for the most part, used on NPCs

which is why theyre implemented now

dense plover

they added them and finished them to help diversify island life

only one I havent found is the kul tiran water form

neither have a water form

and kul tirans dont have a moonkin form

kul tirans have a water form

ehhhhhh

I play on dx11 on live

its a bit hit or miss

sometimes it helps high end, sometimes it doesnt. sometimes it helps low end, sometimes it doesnt

When I say smoother I mean that as in, the camera feels really smooth

hmmmm. it shouldnt crash on dx11. you dont have addons do you?

My fps is capped at 30 on both
