look at this atrocity

#

and when i uncheck UI scaling everything is so small...

#

for now i set it at 0.8, but it didnt look liek this month ago

hollow iris
#

not sure what to say, but that looks like a standard stock UI before any adjustments

onyx igloo
#

how is the ability called where rogue deals extra damage when he attacks from behind?

alpine temple
#

hello does anyone know why my abilities arent glowing when available things liek execute etc

hollow iris
#

they don't glow unless you have an addon that will highlight it afaik ( I've used ElvUI for that long I have zero idea if stock UI now does that ). they just shift from "greyed out" to "lit" ( "lit = left 3, "greyed out" ( in this case no combo points yet ) = right 3 )

also aren't ambush/backstab now just "requires stealth", not been back on my Rouge yet since returning but pretty sure ambush at least is just a "requires stealth"

Any recommendations for race and class? I will probably choose warlock but I have no idea what race

vale hawk
#

All race, class, and spec combinations are viable for all forms of content

hearty mountain
#

Okay nice

keen pewter
#

Ya. Just pick what you find cool

hollow iris
#

warlock is a solid new player pick thanks to Voidwalker pet, as is Hunter for same reason ( pet to tank for you )

and until you get way deep into the game there are no real "this is slightly better than some other options" differences since it's all stuff like partial percentile increases or in some cases a racial ability that goes nice with a class

and on more thing

#

i just want go to battle net for buy new patch

#

but it say i should shadowland too

#

if i buy dragonflight from site

#

can i use it or i should get shadowland

hollow iris
#

DF releases 28th november, you can't use it till then
you also won't get evoker or dracthyr till the prepatch drops on october 25th
also going by past process you will get SL included in base game when DF goes live

if you can wait I'd say get DF and just do 0 to 50 content till then, or if you have disposable then grab SL but it's not got long to go

vale hawk
hollow iris
#

@vale hawk has that always been a thing and my memory is fuzzy of my days of stock UI, or is it more recent than TBC or mists?

#

I've been using various addons for that long my memories of "Stock" UI are fuzzy as hell 😄

#

also thanks for hammering into me when I came back this time "sytart with stock and see what you need", found my old addon list from MOP/WOD backups and I'm running about 30% of the old list due to blizz adding things

vale hawk
#

One of those reasons I recommended trying stuff out without addons after returning

#

If you only know how to walk with a crutch, you can't walk without it

hollow iris
#

mine's more "what's best in the way of spectacles?", so ElvUI and a few plugins for it ended up needed as Blizz only lets you adapt the UI so far

lot of the old quest and map stuff is yeeted though along with multiple "bar uitilities" as they just aren't needed

#

weirdly enough thanks to the streamlining of the class abilities I've managed to flip a lot of "this needs to be on a bar somewhere" to simple LMB/RMB conditional macros

keen pewter
#

Mainly asking because it's total news to me

vale hawk
hollow iris
hollow iris
vale hawk
#

It's the whole reason you're supposed to strafe when tank kiting

keen pewter
#

Oh so that's why

hollow iris
#

pretty sure mists era Dodge was gone too for "not in front 90", as said grabbing coffee and trying to find the blue post I remember

#

again most of my play was Tank back then so I was more worried about making sure mechanics weren't gonna splat the healers

umbral saddle
#

Not trying to be rude or anything but a lot of your advise comes from decade old information

#

Which I mean isn’t the worst way to still play but some stuff is obsolete and confusing to newer players

#

I mean honestly I still play like my CDs are like 15-30 mins anyways too which is horrible

hollow iris
#

which is why my second comment about it had "unless they ripped it out" 😉

#

and no, the worst way to play is still have the muscle memory for Prot Paladin that expects Eternal Flame to exist and not just abuse freebie WoG
expecting a ticking HoT when you don't have it is bad

rancid bay
hollow iris
#

Gumball or Inter can clarify if I've picked it up wrong but until Dragonflight goes live you will be restricted to whatever you have currently ( so level 50 if no shadowlands ) and after Pre-Patch goes live you will get the new basic game features and then if you have pre-ordered DF also Evoker and Dracthyr

@vale hawk / @keen pewter that right or did I get what arrives with Pre-Patch mixed up and everyone will get Drac and Evokers even if not owning DF?

vale hawk
#

And that's not how it works

Im considering going back to WoW after more then 15 years and would have to start over completely. Like buying everything again. Are the older expansions (from battlechest for example) packed in WoW classic? I saw the complete collection on battlenet, but its not really clear to me how complete the complete collection is. Does it has all the older expansions in it like Burning Crusade and all? Feel free to dm me, I know its a long message and lot of questions :p

umbral saddle
rough flax
vale hawk
umbral saddle
#

Yes much much easier than back in the day

vale hawk
#

Sure, it's great that you want to be helping, but more often than not someone else has to actually help the person correctly afterwards

#

Like I'm not trying to punch down at you or anything, you obviously mean well, but in practice you're not helping

rough flax
onyx halo
#

and Shadowlands should/will be added later

#

so lots of stuff to do

rough flax
onyx halo
#

yeh, like said, current expansion is bought seperatly, all older ones get added to the complete edition-thingy

#

so if the new one comes out, Shadowlands should get added

umbral saddle
#

Yeah, it’s how it’s worked in the past but there’s been no official statement as of right now it’s “to play DF you need SLs”

#

But that’s likely to change when DF releases

vale hawk
#

To play the current expansion you must own the current expansion. When there's a new expansion, that will be the current expansion, and to play the current expansion you must own the current expansion.

rancid bay
#

clearly got it

#

if pre patch go live it DF expansion or SL expansion ?

vale hawk
#

Just sub first, worry about it at level 50

hello guys i would like to ask you a question, i am currently doing old content specifically bfa and more specifically the horde war campaign. However all the things says that i have completed all the quests for the war campaign except one "Deeper into Kul'tiras" which im supposed to get automatically and it hasn't happened. Does anybody know any way to get the quest?

#

oh should i post this on another chanel maybe?

rancid bay
vale hawk
#

Subscription or gametime. Gives you access to everything but the current expansion up to level 50

#

Trial/Starter Account is a limited access version of the game up to level 20

smoky glen
#

do you know a way to pre-calculate dmg of a spell? if the equations are listed somewhere etc

keen pewter
smoky glen
#

they don't :(
afaik the spells don't scale linearly either, they say 20% ie but that can be a square or idk

#

there are aura mods too

jolly tree
#

It depends on the input you're looking at. Many stats are converted into stats rating in a log-like curve (they have diminishing returns)

smoky glen
#

ye thats what im looking for

jolly tree
#

The stats rating are typically linearly proportional to the result of the spell

I submitted a ticket to Customer Service a week ago and its still not answered...is that normal?

hollow iris
#

yes, for a given value of "did we drop another title or recent product launch" adding or taking additional time away

think it's running @5-7 days + till assignment for a ticket depending on what it's in relation to for first reply, though like everywhere once it's been replied to the actual responses after that are quicker as it's already assigned

#

Anyone choose the Larion and was given the Phalynx instead?

hollow hare
#

is there a way too see what quests you finished? trying to track down a quest lin3

vale hawk
#

You can search for the name of the questline in your achievements window, if it's associated with one

#

I believe the wowhead attunement tracker tool can also help with that

hasty spear
#

if your character is synced by wowhead you can go to the page of any quest and it will tell you if this character has done this quest

#

but i think btwquests could help you. thats an addon showing you quest trees. i think @hollow iris can tell you more about that

hollow iris
#

yeah, I'm not too up to speed on the Wowhead Sync but BTWQuests is pretty solid for seeing where you are on a questline and also quite good on what you need to start one if it seems it's not showing up @hollow hare

for example a lot of stuff for me was usually wanting either order hall in legion or level 45 to show but that wasn't obvious in some of the wowhead entries. BTW tooltip would usually be sitting there going

45 ( not done ) + quest 1 ( done so greyed out ) + quest 2 ( not done so still showing )

hollow hare
#

thank you just got btwquest for BFA :DD @hollow iris

hollow iris
#

it can take a little while to get used to the way it works, and you will still need to occasionaly track down details on wowhead if the map markers don't trigger, but it's pretty solid for use when stuck

#

what I really like is the flowchart style questline mapping that allows you to see what you're missing or where you got to and then "oh... so level 45 and finish Voldun to unlock that next one... that's why it's not showing yet"

hollow hare
#

yeah so far its looking really usefull! im trying to track down a quest line for me to be able to fly around zandalar area

hollow iris
#

best way for that is probably pull up Pathfinder to see what's still missing, then check the region sections till you find one that's not finished 😄

onyx igloo
#

is there any way how to unlock all flight master locations to lvl faster on alts?

hollow iris
#

yup, heirloom maps from vendor. 10k each and they become Toys that you can pop on alts

vale hawk
#

Just say heirloom. Don't need to confuse a person who doesn't know what you're talking about with a nickname

hollow iris
#

my bad, too used to the shorthand

vale hawk
#

Yeah, shorthand just means fuck-all when they don't know what it's shorthand for lol

onyx igloo
vale hawk
#

Toys are account-bound, yes

#

As a rule of thumb, anything in your Collections window is account-wide

onyx igloo
#

ok ty :D

#

and there is a mount to have a transmog and a blacksmith on it. There is a mammoth and one other mount and a dinosaur
where can i buy each and is there any difference?

hasty spear
#

there is a yak with a transmog guy and a smith, there is a mammoth with a vendor and a smith and then there is the dinosaur with the auctioneer

#

dinosaur: became unavailable with the end of bfa. it cost a million gold iirc. you could get it via random chance off of the black market auction house but good luck with that. The yak you can buy in pandaria (not too hard to google Pandaria Transmog Yak) and the mammoth can be bought in old dalaran

onyx igloo
#

is the vendor at the mammoth in any way useful?

vale hawk
hasty spear
vale hawk
#

The mammoth is more affordable than the yak, and is good if you're just looking for a cheap repair mount

#

But the yak does the same + transmog

#

Are giveaways allowed to be advertised in this Discord? It is a give where you watch a channel for a chance to win.

hasty spear
#

nothing is allowed to be advertised

vale hawk
#

Not without permission from the server owner/admins

hollow iris
#

Mammoth is probably only good for completionist things since Transmog Yak exists

vale hawk
#

Again, the mammoth is cheaper if you're just looking for a cheap repair mount

hollow iris
#

but as Gumball says much more affordable

#

is the Tmog from your own mount free or still gold costs on top?

vale hawk
#

Still costs gold

#

Transmog is only free during the Trial of Style calendar event

little pier
hollow iris
#

no mad rush for me to grab one then since I have Mammoth from back in the day then

onyx igloo
#

i will get the yak, playing a lot with transmogs :D

#

but i can change the look of it in any way right?

vale hawk
#

Of the yak? No

#

It is as majestic as it can be

little pier
#

Are there any WoW themed servers that you know of that would allow giveaway advertising?

#

Did you do Westfall Stew?

potent vale
#

o

keen pewter
#

Also make sure you have Trivial / Low Level Quests enabled on your tracker thing

potent vale
#

no i ondt know the order

keen pewter
#

The 🔎 button by your minimap i think it's on vanilla ui

potent vale
#

yeah

#

yeah i found the story line

#

lol the quest is invisible

#

i have question

#

if i do cataclysm chromie

#

the quest will be seen more?

vale hawk
#

Just make sure you're tracking Trivial Quests on the minimap. Chromie Time doesn't work at level 50+, since Chromie Time is only for scaling content 10-50 while leveling

potent vale
#

if i click track its make the quest visible?

Would doing pathfinder in bfa unlock kul tiran and mechagnome naturally (beside the embassy quest) ?

gloomy holly
#

ok so I have a pretty big problem

#

Yesterday while I was doing some quests I discorvered a player in the middle of arathi highlands meadows

#

he was farming a mob and he always instantly killed the entity

#

and as soon as the mob was killed it got resummoned/respawned and it went on for a while

#

I tried it too, then I left in a couple mins, and logged out

#

When I logged in today everything seemed fine

#

for the first few times it was weird for me that I one tap everything

#

but now I realised that this is maybe bc of this farming thing from yesterday

#

and now I one tap every single mob

#

and its starting to get a bit annoying

#

HELP

#

btw its retail wow

hollow iris
#

highlands is 10-30, if you're past that then you will be one shotting stuff considering you can one shot trash even in a zone close to level

go somewhere that's actually for your level if you're past level 30

gloomy holly
#

im level 35

hollow iris
#

then that's why, you're overlevelled for the area and even rares probably aren't going to be an issue

#

you can literally solo raids with a decent level gap between their level and you, never mind trash and zone mobs

gloomy holly
#

oh ok then

#

but it was weird bc it wasnt like this yesterday

hollow iris
#

retail you either do zone progression and move when you level, or you do chromie time and/or BFA that way it stays scaled or close to your level

and it would be, but as you got further past level 30 and/or moved back into a zone that was lower level vs level 30 top end it would get more noticeable

#

right... coffee time for me

hollow iris
#

not seen anything since the recent pull of the PTR on the 15th about a pre-patch PTR going back up yet

hollow iris
#

more so I know whether to make sure I fire up the client and let it update that day

umbral saddle
#

i don't think there's been an official announcement on when prepatch is

hollow iris
#

fair enough, I'll just keep my eyes open on the blue tracker then for it

spare oar
#

blizz doesnt do business on weekends

#

today's the first business day since the playtest

hollow iris
#

I don't know, depends if it's the US office or EU office that was talking about it since it's now 4pm/5pm here in Europe where I and other players are

so we're at the end of the business day here and the EU office could have put something out?

umbral saddle
#

does blizzard have an EU office?

hollow iris
#

3

#

Cork, Versailles and Hague

though iirc Cork is "GMs"

umbral saddle
#

yeah but none of them are going to be making decisions without the head office telling them to do it

keen pewter
#

^

umbral saddle
#

that's like expecting the distrubution centers to tell you when you're getting things before the production facility tell them they will have it to them

hollow iris
#

I never even said they had made a decision, I said literally "I've not seen anything since they pulled it on friday and posted about it"

MrPeach was the one that jumped in with "and when could they have done this, they don't work weekends"
I replied that for places outside the USA where they have quite major offices it's actually now end of business day

keen pewter
#

playtest and beta stuff is all obviously done by the austin main quarters

hollow iris
#

so to anyone that doesn't work on a US timescale day in day out it's quite realistic that a post even if "There is currently no definite date for PTR being active again yet" could have been made

#

and again... not what I was claiming Blizz EU would do

keen pewter
#

They don't need to update this until they have a date

#

Like what even is your point

hollow iris
#

and did I claim they did?

no, I replied that they could have posted when Peach hit out with ```i mean - when would they have said anything?
blizz doesnt do business on weekends

#

weird thing is, someone saying that something could have happened is not them saying it did or has to

especially when it's in response to them already saying that they've seen zero since the post about pulling the PTR and it not going up till it's fixed

spare oar
#

woah

#

i didnt mean to make a fuss

#

i was just trying to say that all beta/ptr decisions are made in anaheim (LA in california)

#

so its only 8:35am on a monday

#

theyre not even in the office yet

#

and they havent had time to code a fix

hollow iris
#

yeah, I wasn't even meaning they'd have made a call or timescale
I was literally just saying that an EU office could have done a followup after the Blue Post I knew of, and even then was more meaning that the last official one I knew of was the "they ded, active again TBA/TBD"

spare oar
#

EU office wont do a followup though

#

thats what im saying

#

its all decided by blizz HQ in Irvine (not anaheim)

umbral saddle
#

i'd suspect they are in crunch time now or will be at the end of this week and will have people working extra hours now just to not mess up the release now. (not saying we will see updates and stuff at different hours or anything crazy just extra work staff)

hollow iris
#

aye, I'd not even expect another PTR date until they make a proper call on planned Pre-Patch date

keen pewter
#

Still think DnF should release next year not this but whatever xd

spare oar
#

i bet we see a ton of builds and we dont get a prepatch date until the event is working

spare oar
hollow iris
#

ah... get the monkeys to throw crap at it till it still works even covered in crap level of testing?

#

and also aye, I'd prefer a "mostly working" xpac slightly later than some of the ones I've been about for where things were borked for hours even at the level of gossip frames not working

umbral saddle
#

personally i think they've screwed the pooch persay but giving us a date. now it's either release it "on time and as is" and upset people with bugs and things that aren't properly tested or push it back and upset people that don't understand more time would be a good thing

hollow iris

scary bit is the intersection of the two groups there is a perfect circle

so im doing the deathknight starting area in classic

did the quest to use those weapons to make one of the crusaders talk

no new quest

are you sure you completed the quest? you gotta poke them alot

distant hare

yea

i did

#

i have the signet ring that you get for completing the quest

#

and i dont have those weapons anymore

#

even went to the place where im supposed to go after and nothing

umbral saddle
#

hm... maybe there is a quest you are missing to complete the chain and unlock the next part. honestly it's been so long and when i did it for the mount it was a blur lol

distant hare
#

nah i dont think thats the case

#

i thinks its just bugged

#

ive done all the quests prior to this

#

lambs to slaughter and nowhere to run and hide are both done

#

cant even speak with kelseth

#

cant be bothered to do this all again

umbral saddle
#

did you pick up the "behind scarlet lines" quest?

distant hare
#

no

#

thats the quest it wont/hasnt given me

umbral saddle
#

huh and you've done the how to win friends and influence enemies?

distant hare
#

yep

umbral saddle
#

i wonder, did you do the noth's special brew quest? i know it's optional but maybe it's stopping you from getting the next quesT?

distant hare
#

no i didnt

#

hmm

#

i saw it was optional so i didnt do it

#

gonna try and do it

umbral saddle
#

yeah, maybe that's what's doing it who knows.

distant hare
#

yep

#

thatll do it

ah yes

Legion gets you class mogs, BFA has dinosaurs, Mists is a personal favourite of mine, Warlords is meh but the sidequests make it fast... so everything has advantages

and they do a dirty delete just as I answer 😂

Are Legendaries for SL being disabled next week?

umbral saddle
#

i think so since a lot of them are being baked into class talent trees (on prepatch)

#

so whenever prepatch launches leggos will be disabled

weak moon
#

Ugh. 10 days and my support ticket is still not answered. >.<

onyx igloo
#

at which level are you able to buy flying for mounts? and how can you unlock flying for zones like pandaria etc.?

hasty spear
#

you reach lv. 30 and then you can fly pretty much everywhere. Wod and Legion both should have an additional level of flight training you have to buy and BFA/Shadowlands require you to complete and achievement/get to a certain point in the campaign

#

at lv. 40 you unlock the faster flying variant

onyx igloo
#

hmm, on my main char i can fly everywhere but at my alt i cant fly in pandaria

#

and also other zones

vale hawk
#

You don't need to buy extra flying for Legion/WoD

hasty spear
onyx igloo
#

in ogrimmar i can but something outside i cant

umbral saddle
#

isnt BfA all exalted reps in BfA?

vale hawk
#

Level 30 flying gives flying everywhere but BFA and SL

hasty spear
#

you dont? i could swear they took away the achievement requirement but replaced it with an additional riding skill

vale hawk
hasty spear
#

huh... well nevermind then. not the first time i misremember something

vale hawk
#

Pathfinder doesn't need Exalted reps either btw

umbral saddle
#

oh word, i remember grinding turtle rep for flying

vale hawk
#

The reps are only Revered

onyx igloo
#

so how do i get flying for my alt in pandaria?

vale hawk
#

Are you in a scenario?

umbral saddle
#

you should just have to hit 30 and buy flying on that character

onyx igloo
#

hmm ok

umbral saddle
#

you still need to buy the training on each character

onyx igloo
#

and there are toys that enable maps and the fly points like this:

#

but I couldnt buy all on my main char because i didnt have enough reputation with some zones. do i have to do quests in these zones or can i skip the reputation in any way?

#

but idk if they give as many coins deps

#

can anyone remind me how we could get hallow's end wands :? like only inns' pumpkins or was it after each dungeon clear..

stoic basalt
#

Ah yeah I just noticed 😄

hollow iris
#

but aye, was castsequence but it'll need tweaked since mine was for old SPriest values so reset is probably too short and the Spriest one would more likely be reset=7 + MB/MF/MF and done now since it's 7sec reset and Flay is 4 sec channel

#

Quick question, are the wowhead guides for classes going to becoming out soon?

#

Not personally the best at making talent builds on my own (in any game really lmao) so I hope they come soon TE_TrollDespair

hollow iris
#

probably not till they confirm what's definitely going live in the pre-patch since no real point doing massive guides and then it gets flipped a day later "for balance"

umbral saddle
#

Something they had on beta which I found to be nice and hopefully carry into live is the (generic build) basically just did your talents for you on prebuilts so you didn’t have to do it over and over when they were resetting them

weak moon
#

what happened to Wow's live chat support? It was sooo fast. Now a simple problem I have is taking 2 weeks...LOL

sleek quarry
#

IF they roll SL into DF so you dont have to purchase SL along with DF...would it be at prepatch or Launch you all think?

#

i was hoping they would say something about it today when they announce pre patch

umbral saddle
#

Probably at launch

#

But we don’t know if they will or not. It’s likely to happen but we don’t know for sure

sleek quarry
#

crud....i did not want to spend the extra..but i fear i may have to...

umbral saddle
#

I mean, they’ve been handing out SLs at a discount or for free in some cases so I’d honestly be surprised if they choose not to roll it into the base game and make DF the only expansion you have to buy.

#

But that won’t happen until it happens

sleek quarry
#

yeah, i totally missed all those deals, i had taken a break..

umbral saddle
#

But if you want to be there at launch day doing DF stuff right away it’s sorta spend money now and play then wait until DF makes SLs free* (a part of the subscription )

sleek quarry
#

i mean, i have never played shaddowlands....i dont raid yet, so i ll still have all the new additions except the zone. so that might not be a really bad idea then

#

then i wont feel i have to "rush" to play SL at prepatch and be ready for DF

#

i can enjoy it more

umbral saddle
#

The only thing you’d have to do is level really since you’ll be at 50 now instead of 60

sleek quarry
#

right

shadow bane
#

best DPS for dragonflight? as of what we know

hollow iris
#

don't think that's even been decided yet until launch tuning is finished

shadow bane
#

i know there's been buffs and nerfs sent out

hasty spear
#

they are still being tuned. everything might change until release

#

but doesnt really matter. you should play whatever class you're best at playing. the class itself wont make you better

what's the macro for cast on self? wotlk doesn't have that inbuilt

exotic iron
#

quick question, in order to do both raid difficulties before lockout, in which order do i do them?

#

btw this is heart of fear so im not sure if I'm able to do one or two instance before lockout

#

since it was released before siege of orgrimmar I can only do it once per week right?

pallid fulcrum
#

Hey, so, I'm currently blasting through LoreMaster and only have Northrend to finish.
Do I need to get it done by Pre-Patch on the 25th, or by Dragonflight's actual launch?
I can't remember if the DF stuff will get added to LoreMaster at Pre-Patch or at Launch..
Does anybody know?

umbral saddle
#

seeing as it's the quests in DF that will make you not lore master it's safe to assume it's launch and not prepatch but who knows. i guess it would depend on when they add/update the achievements

#

Is it still possible to unlock the Night Warrior customization option?

Yes, by completing the Darkshore scenario and questline that unlocks the Darkshore warfront

Quick question ya'll, submitting this in a couple of different wow discords, but Im currently writing a what if story on Garrosh, and I need help trying to think of a name for the end of pandaria expansion, since its not siege.

#

What I have is that basically half of the Kypari trees in the Dread Wastes of Pandaria ascend into the sky and form interconnecting pathways between them all, effectively creating a floating sky fortress made out of black amber

#

Im thinking maybe Fortress of the Black Amber, but that feels a little too simplistic of a name

hollow iris
# keen pewter what's the macro for cast on self? wotlk doesn't have that inbuilt

most folk used to do a combo of [use:button2] and [target=player] ( you might have to have that as [@player(,any other conditions)] if they've updated the syntax to current macro stuff, target=player is way way back 😄 ) if it didn't already support "cast on self if no target or hostile" as part of it or inbuilt right click self-cast

hollow iris
#

.
we don't seem to have a UI channel and it doesn't seem like the sort of thing for OT, so I'll post here and move if needed.
Opinion needed on whether the left chat is just too small or does it look fine ( any major Raid warnings etc would be handled by DBM etc. so it's not a major need for a large chat )?

trying to get the actual UI footprint as low as possible ( also before folk worry about the bars they are no backdrop + hide empty normally and just like that to show positions, and the top bar is also mouseover reveal only so never normally in sight )

@keen pewter if the parser accepts it [mod:alt, @player] or [mod:alt, target=player] should replace the retail "just press alt"

nope, tidied that too it seems. closest I've got to an example is this from my Bear for skullbash where I kept it for focus interrupts and used alt to smack my actual target

/cast [mod:alt] Skull Bash;/cast [@focus,exists,harm,nodead] Skull Bash```

What's the difference between the pre patch to the launch day?

#

Gonna be a wipe?

azure reef
#

Launch lets us get to level 70 and quest/gear etc in the dragon isles

Prepatch is just an event, new talents and UI, eventually evoker

frank valve

and what is the Dractyhr playable?

#

there's any progress to do before the launch?

azure reef

2 weeks before df release

#

Other than catchup gear not really

aight cool thanks for the notices

There’s gonna be an heirloom that seemingly you can only get during prepatch

#

For an elemental shaman what stats should I prioritize

I've been really unlucky and have got mostly mastery items

Mastery is sat around 20% while everything else is sat at around 5-10

#

My buddy who is also playing elemental shaman is slapping the dps charts while I'm always at the bottom

Every single time

#

Same level same rotation

#

Also I'm using a staff
Not sure if that's the best thing to be using

hollow iris
#

and they will most likely have way better gear and possibly tier items and are you both exactly the same for Covenant and Talents? 😉

distant hare
#

we are level 20

hollow iris
#

ah, then it's likely just either gear or talents

distant hare
#

we levelled at the same time same quests

so im not sure how lol

hollow iris
#

well, talents is as simple as did you both take the same talent at 15
gear is "did you both pick the same gear item as a reward?"

distant hare
#

yep both same talents

hollow iris
#

also they may be not using fillers or managing to get better chaining on the spell casts

lots of things could affect it

distant hare
#

pretty much same gear picks

hollow iris
#

same intellect stat value? because that will also make a difference

#

primary stat is generally worth more while levelling than most other stats since you rearely get to focus due to replacement frequency

distant hare
#

hes got 3 more than me

but hes doing a shit ton of damage more than me

solemn raft
#

Also, you're level 20. Like 90% of the class isn't there yet so don't worry about damage too much.

anyone have any tips for wat i should do or should o done by now lol

#

im a hunter worgen

hollow iris
#

do whatever you enjoy till 50, then do shadowlands doing whatever you enjoy

#

about the only things to maybe do for definite for Hunter is grab a Clefthoof and Spirit Beast as pets

cloud owl
#

ill do that today, ill look up where they are

hollow iris
#

google a site called Petopia, one of the best hunter pet guides available

cloud owl
#

is there certain stuff i should have? like ive just unlocked master rider but not a clue how to learn it

somber cedar
cloud owl
#

thank you

hollow iris
#

Flying/Riding is major capitals usually

#

trainer is usually near the main Flight Point there

#

so for you Stormwind and should be one in Ironforge if my memory isn't lying to me

azure reef
#

You can talk to a guard for directions for anything in the city

cloud owl
#

sw?

hollow iris
#

Stormwind, sorry old habit to use shorthand

cloud owl
#

i wish i knew them lol

hollow iris
#

and yet for some reason I always type Ironforge out instead of IF

cloud owl
#

does anybod want to meet up and have a wonder showing me some things?

#

where is sormwind?

#

sory for all the questios haha

hollow iris
#

Stormwind is the main Alliance Capital you would have arrived in at the start of the game

cloud owl
#

sory if im a mega noob hahah

#

the flight master wont let me fly out of kul tiras

hollow iris
#

then as Arch said ask a guard for directions to the trainer

#

never been to Kul Tiras so no idea where anyhting is there cause I'm usually filthy horde

cloud owl
#

so is that because i am a hunter that i went to kul tiras?

hollow iris
#

🤷‍♂️

cloud owl
#

this game is so confusing

hollow iris
#

my Worgen I'm using for heritage unlock went to SW but it was also a Death Knight

hasty spear
#

@cloud owl So Stormwind is your factions capital city. i would suggest (once you get there) to set your hearthstone at an inn there to get there easily since most portals are reachable from there and its a good default position.
In Boralus there should be some sort of Portal Room with Portals to Silithus, Stormwind and some other cities iirc. You might have to google to find it (if you havent found it already).

cloud owl
#

thank you for exlainin mate, im going to have a look now

hasty spear
#

i wish i could help more but im also a horde main and havent been in boralus (as an alliance character) for more than 5 mins kekw

#

i appreciae any help man, its so confusing reaserching tips for this game as theres so muc lingo i am unfamiliar with haha

mate youre a legend, muc appreciated

onyx igloo

is there anything useful to buy for anima or cosmic flux when i already got tier set items and dont need transmogs from covenants?

cloud owl
#

uys evey time i wtite someting its saying it in chat and above my head?

#

ow do i stop the chat box over my head

hasty spear
#

there might be something in the interface settings BUT i advise against it since chat bubbles can be useful in certain content.

hollow iris
#

now I know ElvUI has spoiled me for years, somehow by default it has /say etc all disabled but keeps cutscene and quest ones active 😄

hasty spear
#

i use elvui myself and it doesnt have it disabled

hollow iris
#

hmmm, might be SL doing it then but I literally have no chat outside quest and cutscene and have never even looked for a setting for it in game

hollow iris
#

@hasty spear on a side note I finally got my UI to "right, no more tweaks needed level" yesterday and of course then it hits me that even if the DF UI doesn't end up making ElvUI redundant it will break everything on the 28th 😂

umbral saddle
#

25th*

#

Wait you’re EU so the 26th right? Aren’t you guys a day behind us?

hasty spear
#

we are 26th yes

#

i wouldnt say we are a day behind you. you are just beta testing for us

umbral saddle
#

Hehe

#

I think all US accounts should get “beta tester” title

hollow iris
# umbral saddle 25th*

28th nov is DF launch?

I thought we weren't getting UI till then, and really hope not since it's still a steaming pile in Beta just now from what I've seen

umbral saddle
#

We get ui next reset

hollow iris
#

ah... never change Blizz

umbral saddle
#

Ui and talents are part of prepatch part 1

#

Are they really that bad still in beta? I haven’t been on in like a week

hollow iris
umbral saddle
#

Did you just take this SS or is it old?

hollow iris
#

that was still borked among other things as of 17th afaik

#

and not me, one of the ElvUI folk that's in beta

umbral saddle
#

So possibly out dated SS and yet here we are complaining

#

I’ll update the beta and see if anything is broken but after I cook breakfast

hollow iris
#

cool, would be nice to see if they've fixed the UI stuff if we're rolling with it soon as they've got till what 15th nov for actual worries about Drac and Evoker being playable

#

talents as long as the interface works will be a WIP since that'll probably need tuned to death for months then balance passed every so often

umbral saddle
#

I’m never worried about tuning since that’s always an ongoing process

#

Plus we won’t have our full talent trees anyhow until DF

hollow iris
#

aye, that's why Talents I'm filing under "as long as the interface for it works I'm good till it shakes out through play data"

#

same way I'm not expecting massive functionality from a lot of addons straight after launch in case the usual happens and things bork them

umbral saddle
#

Nothing was wrong with the interface the last time I was on but I’m just one person

hollow iris
#

aye, could even be folk playing with the mobile element thing and overlays not altering dynamically is all that caused that one

#

I've seen UX we've made for events have similar issues because when they changed the layout to be draggable they forgot to change the overlay from static position to hooking the parent element

umbral saddle
#

Didn’t notice anything terribly wrong with the UI in the current build so it’s not as in shambles as you think it is

hollow iris
#

@umbral saddle good to hear, just the expected "it all broke" for addons to deal with every so often then

umbral saddle
#

addons are always broken with each expansion

hollow iris
#

which to be fair happens every major change or xpac no matter what game

#

hell, Pathfinder:WOTR had 3 back to back where everything broke because they forget to warn the modders in advance they were changing namespace formats for some stuff that got called for setting cVARs

one was literally as simple as the string was changed from <variable name> to m.<variable name>, but it caused everything to either at best not work to for a lot of it softlock loading after the updates

No news on when SL will be included with the 6 month sub?

Hello, how to make macro for casting both shaman weapon buffs at once? (Flametongue n Windfury)

hollow iris
#

closest you're going to get is casting it with 2 clicks/keypresses of the macro since they're both on GCD so can't be cast in one "press"

smoky glen
#

if you use the mouse to cast bind it to left and right click

#

/cast [btn:1]Flame
/cast [btn:2]Wind

quasi isle
#

is it one click?

smoky glen
#

ie as priest, i have the stamina buff and mind vision on the same key, shackle undead and mind control etc

#

em ye left or right one

#

you can put something on the scroll as well, btn 3 ofc

quasi isle
#

what does mean btn?

keen pewter
#

button

#

as un mouse button 1 and mouse button 2

smoky glen
#

the short way to type it i am used to making my macroes as short as possible

#

when you make longer scripts it kind of becomes a must :(

quasi isle
#

oh

#

i get it now

#

but can i make it without waste 2 clicks?

smoky glen
#

no no its when you click the icon with the mouse xd

#

be unable to use it otherwise would suck

quasi isle
#

oh

#

yeah a bit ;p

#

ok thanks

hollow iris
#

no, the fact they are both on GCD means the lowest is two clicks either via Castsequence 1 then 2 or as Aomchi says doing it as [btn:2] for one and then the other casts on normal click on the icon

the castsequence version would work with keybind, as would also setting something like [mod:alt] so that Keybind would cast one buff then alt+keybind the second

#

options

[btn:2] cast <spell 1>; cast spell 2 would cast spell 1 on rmb and spell 2 on lmb, still two clicks
[mod:alt] cast <spell 1>; cast spell 2 would cast spell 2 on normal click or press and spell 1 when alt is also being pressed, still two "clicks"
/castsequence <spell 1>,<spell 2> would cast spell one then spell two over two successive click/keypresses, still two "clicks"

but i see people playing wow classic more

keen pewter

if you're just starting I'd say regular wow

That's partly because regular wow is at the end of an expansion, and classic at the start of the most played expansion

Is there an addon for retail that shows u ur total gold across all characters in ur accounts and that tracks how much u've earned per day ( again, across all characters )

#

Or one that shows how much gold ur characters have individually without me having to log in

hollow iris
#

Altoholic will track that and more, not sure about "earned per day" though

umbral saddle
#

Accountant does this

#

You’ll have to log into each one once to get the data but you can look up day/week/month/year as well as accountwide gold

hollow iris

that's actually pretty funky since it's one of the few things Alto doesn't do in my experience

Yeah, alto is good for things but accountant is good for seeing where gold is coming in and out

Can you not shift+click drag it?

keen pewter
#

wait what

#

you can do that on vanilla ui?

raven flint
#

no nothing will move it lol

#

on other characters its usually in the middle but for some reason this one its overlapping my action bars

#

ahh got it

#

used /moveui ... must be an addon i have

smoky glen
#

btw you can hide pretty much anything with /run GetMouseFocus():Hide() (mouseover)
move with :SetPoint("TOP") center topleft etc
just don't do it with no frame under the mouse, or you will bug the ui
if you mess up click the chat and /reload

hollow iris
# raven flint used /moveui ... must be an addon i have

if /moveui worked you have ElvUI and just type that or go into /ec and toggle anchors. whatever you want to move then you just drag and if you want to alter anything in the ui while anchors is toggled then just right click on the element and it will jump to the section of the config options for it

vale hawk
#

Well, it's an ability button. I usually drag my Draenor zone ability (what they have pictured) onto one of my bars on the right, next to my garrison hearthstone

raven flint
#

i tried doing that but it didnt remove the button from screen, assuming cause im using elvui?

hollow iris
#

yup, elv will anchor it to wherever you placed it until you toggle the anchors again and move it in that mode

raven flint
#

ahh kk that makes sense now then

hollow iris
#

pros of Elv anchoring : you can't randomly move stuff by mistake
cons of Elv Anchoring : you can't quickly move stuff without the config menu or /moveui, and due to tainting it won't open in combat which is usually when you want to quickly move stuff

#

it's why even ElvUI users will advise you to wait and see if you need it first, and why we also spend so much time tweaking our layouts till everything is in a spot where we want it to be while also not blocking anything else

raven flint
#

im not even sure how it got there tbh .. my other characters its not overlapping, just this one guy .. least its all fiugured out now tho

hollow iris
#

you've probably moved it not realising what it is while setting up to get something else in place then when it's went active it's been in the wrong location

I've had similar when I've copied in the default profile on a new toon then activated something only to realise it was one of the "not using that yet" lements that are all stacked mid screen to get them out the way on the default layout

download the game and start. its free until lv. 20 so play until you reach that. after that you only need to pay the subscription or get gametime to play until lv.50 and then you can buy shadowlands to go to 60 altough shadowlands will soon get included in the base sub so you might wanna wait for that its only about a month away

Hey I'm Hevusrul. I've played the three Warcraft RTS games as early as I could walk and I gave WoW a try just prior to legion release.

After legion ended I made the correct choice to abandon ship to Final Fantasy and Lost Ark, however the class design in FF14 is seriously the most uninteresting I've ever seen in an MMO of all time. The tanks and healers might as well all be the exact same class except they get about 4 abilities difference from each other.

I really miss WoW. I really enjoyed discipline priest healing and being able to focus on damage and healing at the same time while keeping up atonement(?) (Whatever the buff is called)

I miss shadow priest in legion where you would pop void form and it felt like you were playing StarCraft for about a minute.

There were a few other interesting classes like feral druids being able to snapshot damage buffs to enhance their damage over time or the monk tanks with the stagger mechanic.

Ultimately, I'm asking if the game is worth coming back to. I really hope it is, but I want to play it safe and ask the community first. I'm heading off to bed and I'll check back and see what people think in the morning.

I guess as a side question, I am curious to the class design in wrath of the lich king and how similar it was to legion.

willow grail
#

coming back to the game is a personal decision, depends what in the game interested you the most

as for the class design only thing I'd say about it is wrath is about having all the tools while legion is about class identity (I mean they literally had class halls, mounts, armors, new talents, etc, however I actually did not play it myself so this is just looking back at it)

Hi — Does anyone here have a backup of an older version of the Battle.net launcher? It can be any version prior to the current one. I need a copy of the "qwindows.dll" file from the /platforms folder. The recent update to the Battle.net launcher made it unable to launch on many Linux devices, but some people are reporting that copying this file from an older backup to the current version may fix the problem.

Is there an addon that lets me drop of 'Death and Decay' after pressing my keybind, instead of needing to click again to drop it?

hasty spear
#

if you have to ask then you pick exiles reach

hollow iris
# cobalt sable I'm sorry but how do i do this?

you create a macro for the ability, and give it the targeting conditional of [@mousover] which then means if you press the keybind ( will not work with mouseclick on the icon ) it will cast at the mouse position and not need a second click

https://www.wowhead.com/guide/macro-guide-6061

#

for example this is my focus macro
/focus [@mouseover, harm, exists]; /focus [@mouseover,exists]; /focus [@target]
which casts in this order mouse cursor+enemy+exists >> mouse cursor+exists >> whatever I'm targeting

#

you're wanting one that works on /use [@mouseover] Death and Decay or however it is listed exactly in the tooltip so for example

/use [@mouseover] Death and Decay```

has anyone an explanation about what an affix is? i try to explain it to a friend but dont find good words

keen pewter
#

it's a modifier on the dungeon to add stuff to kill or avoid or change how you run it

hollow iris
# cobalt sable Thank you so much! I have trouble understanding your focus macro but I'm already...

my focus macro reads left to right as

If there's something ( exists ) hostile ( harm ) under the mouse cursor ( @mouseover ) then focus it
if there's something friendly or neutral ( exists ) under the mousecursor ( @mouseover ) then focus that
if neither of those are true then focus whatever I'm targeting

lets me quickly focus on either hostile targets or using the second one party members, then if I'm about to swap off a target but want to keep an eye on it for interrupts the third one lets me hit a key to ficus it and then I can safely tab off to the new target

and, now that i have the heart of azeroth at lvl 80 what do i do?

spring jasper
#

I'm planning on getting into the game again, but the only thing turning me away from it is the fact that skills take my whole numbar. is there a way to shrink it down a little

lunar karma
#

for exaple, 1,2,3 for DMG and shift-1, shift-2 and shift-3 for more skills

spring jasper
#

but that still leaves like 4 unused skills? will i be able to chill not using those 4. like have my important six on the 123 and shift variants?

lunar karma
#

i learn that at the start of my experience and was for the best

#

I recomend using your mouse buttons for the most important skills

spring jasper
#

i only have 2 mouse buttons lol. working on getting a new mouse atm

lunar karma
#

and u cant use properly the 6 to 0 keys, so try to use (q,e,r,f,c)

#

thats enough, me too

#

mouse 4 and mouse 5, shift mouse 4 and shift mouse 5, scroll up, scroll down and shifts variants

#

i have all my combo with my rogue on mouse, and 1 defensive skill there

#

the scroll is for zoom, but try to change it with control-scrool up and control-scroll down, still easy and now u have 2 more buttons

spring jasper
#

when i first played, my group forced me to be healer because new guy does heal role blah blah, i just had my heal on 1 and 2, and shield on 3.

lunar karma
#

thats totally fine, 1,2,3 are very close keys and easy to access

spring jasper
#

but i still had very useful skills past there that would stop me from moving or aiming to press, like my revive on 5 and a knockback on 4. i'm going off vague memory atm

lunar karma
#

u can try to put your dmg hability on one of your mouse buttons, dont get crazy with keybinds

spring jasper
#

so like, have a heal/shield on 123 and some offensive on mouse

lunar karma
#

u can use Q and E too, those are one of the best keys, dont reduce a lot of movement and are so fast to press

spring jasper
lunar karma
#

yeah, movement

#

but I change the Q E movement to A and D

#

its not so important, but now I have 2 more keys and are one of the best

spring jasper
#

alright. So for builds, i might do a druid for its versatility as a tank, dps or healer from what i've heard, should i just follow mainstream builds or try to experiment

hollow iris
#

you can also use conditionals with macros to bind multiple spells to each key

lunar karma
#

Because i have been playing for just some weeks, i look for the mainstream builds, some guides and basic videos about my class and im very happy

hollow iris
#

ranges from simple stuff like Warlock doing Circle placement on right click/alt and port on click/press and same with Healthstone

then you get to other stuff like folding in alt+ctrl+shift and then harm/no harm to bind 7 or 8 spells to one key

lunar karma
#

yeah that looks hard

#

or complex at least

spring jasper
#

simple stuff and proceeds to do a mkx combo

hollow iris
#

especially since you need to learn as a tank to ignore DPS losing health and trust the healers

spring jasper
#

so classes have difficulties?

lunar karma
#

i find rogue a chaos class, all people say it hard, so tank might be harder xd

hollow iris
#

not as such, more that some help newer players more than others by having a pet that can tank for you and others have nothing but evasion or stun to stop you getting reamed

then as said healing is something you either get or don't, and tanking requires being able to not only handle your own mitigation/healing and control the battle so they're on you and not the healer but also know when to trust the healer to sustain you and when to pop a defensive to soak it on top

#

also in relation to 1,2,3

not helped by me being a filthy clicker due to injuries but this is a "trimmed" set of abilities on my DK 😂

lunar karma
#

#

context needed, like what class/spec etc?

raven flint
hollow iris
#

apart from something to deal with talent picks if such a thing exists, that's pretty much just changing what you are casting and even then from what I've read so far there's not much gets changed anyway due to some talents being "nothing else gets close" and things being tied into them

Question: If I wait until Shadowlands gets rolled into legacy and then level from 50-60, am I going to be under-geared to start Dragonflight? Seems like ilvl will only scale to ~60, but people will be going in with ilvl ~280

hollow iris
#

you're about ilevel 100 by the time you've done some quests in SL and can be anything from 150 to 200+ by 60 depending on where you're grinding and what part of the quest you're on

either way the early drops from DF will most likely make that irrelevant anyway

#

I'm not even doing anything special here and haven't even farmed Zeneth etc or indeed finished the Jailer questline and got second leggo etc 😄

winter shard
#

Will it be different doing SL through chromie time though? Or should I probably just do it as "current content"

#

Maybe Chromie time won't even be ready by prepatch2

hollow iris
#

not sure, I'm pretty certain CT scales drops too so even doing TBC content in it would get you level relevant drops

#

hopefully one of the bigbrains will know that for definite about whether CT will be on the go for DF launch

also prepatch =/= launch 😉

winter shard
#

yea, my concern is I'll only have ~2 weeks before launch to get from 50-60 and then maybe not be geared for DF

#

ilvl and char lvl are coupled up to this point leveling through CT, not sure when it will scale exponentially to meet current content

I have another question. I did a dungeon yesterday and someone told me my "kick was late". How do i know when to cast my interrupt?

smoky glen
#

its your decision in a way
if you do it in the beginning of a spell cast (which you absolutely know is dangerous, somehow), you are done with it and others won't panic/use their ints as the cast ends - and this is bad (or ofc wait for someone else)
if you wait till its going off, in a way you are stunning the mob and letting party's cds reset
there are add-ons that follow others' interrupts, so you have lower chance to mess e/o

btw, you met a jerk. xd

hollow iris
#

indeed, plater or other addons will let you colour cast bars so you see whether they can be interrupted ( mines set to yellow - can be "kicked", Red - can't be "kicked", blue - can be kicked but kicks/stuns on CD )

and aye, as Aomichi said you met a jerk. As long as noone died or you wiped due to it no biggy, even in progress raids

cobalt sable
#

Thank you for letting me know!

#

Also, I wanted to use this macro:
/cleartarget /targetenemy [noexists][dead]

using this:
/run SetBindingMacro("F10", "TNear") /run SaveBindings(2)

#

But the run thing doesnt work. Any idea why?

#

The first macro is called "TNear" and the /run Macro called Target Nearest E

cobalt sable
hollow iris
hollow iris
#

/targetenemy [exists, nodead, harm]

#

that's the one that will select an existing, not dead, hostile target

#

also if you're ever trying to setup up something like "cast x if it's enemy but y if party" then you just swap [exists, nodead, harm] to [exists, nodead, help]

The /run is the problem

cobalt sable
#

lemme show you what i mean because i think we are talking away from each other

#

This vanilla xp bar

hollow iris

yeah, ElvUI grabs that if set right and then you just disable the xp databar if wanted or adapt it how you like

cobalt sable
#

Oh!

#

I.. didnt know that.

#

Sorry for sounding like a dick..

hollow iris
#

nah, no worries. it's one of those addons that has a lot of stuff "under the hood" that you don't realise it can even do

cobalt sable
#

But thank you very much already. Now i just need to figure out whats causing lua errors, as per usual

hollow iris
#

jump into the ElvUI discord and ask in the retail support channel, post the full lua error in a codebox ( place 3x ` either side of it ) and then give them time to respond as the support is basically whoever is there plus they are often at work just now

they're quite good and that is something borked in actual ElvUI if it's not just a failed hook that is harmless

Not even the mouseover macro you gave me, wants to work

if you have it bound to a key with no other conditions like [button:2] inside it should still work on keypress as long as the other conditions are met and since it's D&D iirc that's basically "I have the mouse cursor on the screen" 😂

cobalt sable
#

This is the macro, words replaced with german obv.

#

and its right there

hollow iris
#

yeah, that should work fine as you have zero extra conditionals beyond "my mouse is working"

#

Ao, you think of any reason why setting a keybind would suddenly bork it?

smoky glen
