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
not sure what to say, but that looks like a standard stock UI before any adjustments
how is the ability called where rogue deals extra damage when he attacks from behind?
hello does anyone know why my abilities arent glowing when available things liek execute etc
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 )
flanking rules, and everyone gets extra damage from flanking/behind so it won't show up in spellbook
backstab and ambush
i think he meant abilities which have clause in them - usable only from behind, or deal extra damage from behind, also.. maybe i am wrong, i am playing casters, but there is no "extra damage" from flanking/behind, it just means they cannot dodge?
unless they ripped it out there is a global DPS bonus from flanking due to dodge/parry ( and iirc glance ) being removed, it's one of the secondary reasons beyond just making sure the squishies are safe you should always be swinging the boss in most big fights
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"
Looking for a sherpa to take me through the beginning of the game? Looking for a friend to show me the ropes!
Hi friend I'd recommend creating a character and playing through Exile's Reach, the game's tutorial
Okay the game is downloading right now, will do!
Any recommendations for race and class? I will probably choose warlock but I have no idea what race
All race, class, and spec combinations are viable for all forms of content
Okay nice
Ya. Just pick what you find cool
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
Oct25
need help of someone friendly to help me with the nighthold mythic
it is for all player or just for streamer and professionals ?
All players of course, it's a prepatch
ty freind 😉
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
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
BTW lampy, ability procs do glow and light up when they occur in the default UI
@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
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
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
BTW do you have an actual source for that or you just think it's like that?
Mainly asking because it's total news to me
I'd recommend yeeting all of your UI addons out the window once pre-patch happens anyway, since there's going to be a default overhaul that will render MANY addons obsolete or redundant
I'd need to hunt out the blue post via google but there was a blue on it about being in the "270" as most folk thought of it removed boss dodge/parry unless it was a special attribute for them and I'm pretty sure glance was mentioned as dropping glance chance to 0%
gimme 2 mins to grab a coffee and fire up t'googlywemz
oh aye. I actually plan to just not log in till 1st december to let the usual "is crashed" chappen and then run stock and see what I then need again
He's mistaken. It's a chance to hit thing. Blocks and parries can only occur in a 180° forward arc.
It's the whole reason you're supposed to strafe when tank kiting
Oh so that's why
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
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
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
so also in the pre patch i cant play unrestericted ?
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?
Okay, Madlampy, kinda like how he said right here... Your information is incredibly outdated and incorrect
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
A subscription covers all but the current expansion
Oeh.. thats sounds easy 😄
And you can't slap "unless they changed it" or "AFAIK" onto everything like a disclaimer in case you're wrong. If you don't know the current situation, just don't answer. While the intent of wanting to help is great and all, at a certain point you're just spreading misinformation or inaccuracies and doing more harm than actually helping
Yes much much easier than back in the day
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
Okay, Ill have to figure out what its going to cost me in that case
you mean it will come later after I get subscription?
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
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
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.
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?
man i am just getting start the game your meant by sub is get free trial and game time ?(uo to 50) ?
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
do you know a way to pre-calculate dmg of a spell? if the equations are listed somewhere etc
I want to say wowhead has the fórmulas for each spell? Back in tbc classic there was this addon called SpellCalc that would display the damage/heals a spell would do too
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
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)
ye thats what im looking for
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?
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
so i never really healed before but i have a weird desire to play as a healer this patch, which specs are reactive healers, cuz i dont really want to 5head time everything before damage comes
is there a way too see what quests you finished? trying to track down a quest lin3
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
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
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 )
thank you just got btwquest for BFA :DD @hollow iris
might as well grab all the various modules, they'r eload on demand and also unload themselves when not needed so they only take up disk space and not memory hog when not in use
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"
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
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 😄
is there any way how to unlock all flight master locations to lvl faster on alts?
yup, heirloom maps from vendor. 10k each and they become Toys that you can pop on alts
Just say heirloom. Don't need to confuse a person who doesn't know what you're talking about with a nickname
my bad, too used to the shorthand
Yeah, shorthand just means fuck-all when they don't know what it's shorthand for lol
can i buy this on my main char and then all other alts have it? and is it account wide so i have it also on other realms?
Toys are account-bound, yes
As a rule of thumb, anything in your Collections window is account-wide
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?
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
is the vendor at the mammoth in any way useful?
The transmog mount: https://www.wowhead.com/item=84101/reins-of-the-grand-expedition-yak
i dont think so
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.
nothing is allowed to be advertised
Not without permission from the server owner/admins
Contact information is in #welcome-rules
Mammoth is probably only good for completionist things since Transmog Yak exists
Again, the mammoth is cheaper if you're just looking for a cheap repair mount
but as Gumball says much more affordable
is the Tmog from your own mount free or still gold costs on top?
@vale hawk Thankyou both.
no mad rush for me to grab one then since I have Mammoth from back in the day then
i will get the yak, playing a lot with transmogs :D
but i can change the look of it in any way right?
Are there any WoW themed servers that you know of that would allow giveaway advertising?
is there boa/boe gear for lvl50s alts getting into the shadowlands?
Nobody will help you unless they know what you want help with
i want to know why the quest in westfall dont appear
crime scene investigation
i was checking westfall achivement
i found out quests dont appear nor in duskwood and westfall
maybe im too high lv?
Can you link the quest? From wowhead.com
Speak with Salma Saldean at the Saldean's Farm in Westfall. A level 5 Westfall Quest. Rewards . Added in World of Warcraft: Cataclysm. Always up to date.
Did you do Westfall Stew?
o
Also make sure you have Trivial / Low Level Quests enabled on your tracker thing
no i ondt know the order
The 🔎 button by your minimap i think it's on vanilla ui
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?
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
if i click track its make the quest visible?
Does anyone want to run Utgarde Keep and The Nexus normal? My account was hacked and silenced. I can't use the lfg in game
That's the whole point, yes
Try the Looking For Group channels, down the list on the left
Would doing pathfinder in bfa unlock kul tiran and mechagnome naturally (beside the embassy quest) ?
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
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
im level 35
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
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
Aight I'm at the last step to finally unlock Kul Tirans. Is the quest chain for the Achievement solo doable at level 60? Because it involves Tol Dagor and Siege for Borealus
ye normal is k with zereth's 226 items
You don't need to do the dungeons to unlock allied races anymore. Just talk to the NPC who gave you the quest for a dialog option to skip
Huge! Ty!
how do u get into Dragonflight pre patch?
You wait for October 25th for it to be a thing
what about ptr?
not seen anything since the recent pull of the PTR on the 15th about a pre-patch PTR going back up yet
have they confirmed Pre-Patch is definitely going to be at same time as season end now?
more so I know whether to make sure I fire up the client and let it update that day
i don't think there's been an official announcement on when prepatch is
fair enough, I'll just keep my eyes open on the blue tracker then for it
i mean - when would they have said anything?
blizz doesnt do business on weekends
today's the first business day since the playtest
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?
does blizzard have an EU office?
yeah but none of them are going to be making decisions without the head office telling them to do it
^
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
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
playtest and beta stuff is all obviously done by the austin main quarters
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
They don't need to update this until they have a date
Like what even is your point
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
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
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"
EU office wont do a followup though
thats what im saying
its all decided by blizz HQ in Irvine (not anaheim)
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)
aye, I'd not even expect another PTR date until they make a proper call on planned Pre-Patch date
Still think DnF should release next year not this but whatever xd
i would bet the opposite
i bet we see a ton of builds and we dont get a prepatch date until the event is working
i also think this - while its content ready, its still very buggy and the work order system hasnt even been tested yet
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
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
scary bit is the intersection of the two groups there is a perfect circle
ummm
so im doing the deathknight starting area in classic
did the quest to use those weapons to make one of the crusaders talk
upon completion nothing happened
no new quest
are you sure you completed the quest? you gotta poke them alot
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
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
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
did you pick up the "behind scarlet lines" quest?
huh and you've done the how to win friends and influence enemies?
yep
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?
yeah, maybe that's what's doing it who knows.
lol
Afternoon y'all. trying to get back into WoW.. i have a level 40 and some small toons...Where's a good jumping off point?
probably making a new one of picking up a spec/class you were familiar with
hi everyone! I'm thinking about trying to get into wow because it seems fun, and I wanna know which one I should play. Classic or Retail? thanks! (also if this is the wrong channel for this oops lmk)
Hello!!
If I do a old raid in retail wow to farm transmog. Can I do it once a week per account or per character?
per character
Thank you!!!
What lvl is enough to defeat throne of thunder?
Is 23 enoujgh ?
Its from mists of pandaria
I don't think 23 is gonna cut it no
Fuck
Most people wait til max level to farm old stuff
most folk would suggest Retail if new. 18 years of QoL fixes and upgrades and content plus a decent new player tutorial
classic is more for people wanting either nostalgia or else the game the way it was 15 years ago 😄
just level to like 50, it takes like 6-10 hours
like - theres no guarantee what you are looking for will even drop
and who is going to volunteer to spend energy unless they also get something out of it?
ouu okay thank you!
What do you want ?
probably for you to look at the sidebar and use the LFG channels to ask for a Throne carry? 😉
Guys, can I run same raid in different difficulties
on the same character?
Or must I wait one week after doing it in one difficulty?
trying to search for a guild to join, but very overwhelming to find. Anyone have suggestions outside of discord chat channels?
depends on what xpac it's from, here's the blizz article on it
https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/269958
guild finder in game can filter for size and activities, after that mostly just make sure it does the stuff you want to do and if you're wanting to be casual make sure it lists as Casual Friendly
Yeah, will be looking for a casual friendly guild for my alt i'm playing with my son, but will likely look for something for a main too at some point, but want to relearn stuff...So lost on many aspects of the game at the moment.
Guys, can I run same raid in different difficulties
on the same character?
Or must I wait one week after doing it in one difficulty?
that link I posted has literally the answers to your question detailed for every expansion
I'd start with Social & Levelling then and avoid 18+ listings if he's not 18 yet as that's pretty much the more new/casual/returning friendly ones that won't be pushing for you to do progression immediately
after that you can aim for a Raid or Progression guild for yourself if you want it
I have a friend who started playing wow through the trial version
he wants to play wiht me soon dragonflight
what does he has to buy to play and level until lvl 50 withouth buying shadowlands?
a subscription
the normal subscription is enough?
and then once prepatch launches, they should be able to level to 60
yes
all except current and future expacs are included
when i use my "friends-invite" link we both get some cool stuff right?
once prepatch launches, shadowlands should be rolled into the baseline
yes, as long as they subscribe for a certain amount of time
okay thank you :D
he already has a "friend-partner" connected, can he remove his old connection and add me as "partner"?
i have no idea - check the FAQs on the recruit a friend page
how can i do a dungeon on the PTR ? there's no premade groups
i have new character. i got 10 lvl fishing.
why in stormwind i cach fishs but not lvl up, but in elvin forest i lvl up but fishig trash?
there are no new dungeons on ptr - i assume no one is running them'
yeh, which i find odd nobody wants to test the new talents atleast.
well its more that people who really want to test that, have beta and are also testing the new dungeons
i guess
also everyone thinks no one else wants to play dungeons
which is a bummer but eh
the ele storms should be fine tbf
its like in league, everyone likes custom game modes like save the princess etc
but. ufff how to find ppl? ;d
btw today learnt zoomers' way to screenshot, in case you dont k it yet
win-shift-s
whats the most effective way to increase my item lvl
depends on context and current ilevel and also what game version etc.
well, i main warlock and warroir, and my item lvl on my warroir is 177, and my warlock is 242
I'm not sure if this is okay to put in this thread, but I'm looking for friends to play the game with if anyone wants to. 😅 Currently playing right now on a level 25 🙂
yeah no, scroll down on the server list and youll find LFG channels
Alrighty, thanks!
yup yup
ZM for the warrior, from what I've read you'll need M+ and raids for PvE gear over what the lock has since I'm guessing it's fully set up in ZM gear?
ah, just that 242 is ZM rare level too 😄
https://www.wowhead.com/guide/how-to-gear-shadowlands-item-level-rewards
basically preference
afaik dbm is more widespread but i think both will work
how do i gain rep with voldunai??
is rep still needed to unlock legion allied races
Complete every raid on Fated difficulty, normal or above. LFR doesn't work.
Castle Nathria, Sanctum of Domination and Sepulcher.
Do hurry up with it, as it will go away when Dragonflight hits.
i thought it goes away with end of season so in one week
Welp, that's a waste. Only do it if you want gear at this point.
anyone know offhand if other specs apart from unholy can get permanent Ghoul?
also since I don't remember it being a thing in Mists era, will the xp buff run till Pre-Patch release or DF release?
just wondering how far to push capping 60s on stuff I'll actually play again
nop, the cat stays till launch dw
and so does ryg's title
No perma ghoul for the other 2
depends what you're after?
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?
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
Ugh. 10 days and my support ticket is still not answered. >.<
at which level are you able to buy flying for mounts? and how can you unlock flying for zones like pandaria etc.?
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
hmm, on my main char i can fly everywhere but at my alt i cant fly in pandaria
and also other zones
You don't need to buy extra flying for Legion/WoD

in ogrimmar i can but something outside i cant
isnt BfA all exalted reps in BfA?
Level 30 flying gives flying everywhere but BFA and SL
you dont? i could swear they took away the achievement requirement but replaced it with an additional riding skill
It's a few things. Pathfinder parts 1&2
They didn't
huh... well nevermind then. not the first time i misremember something
Pathfinder doesn't need Exalted reps either btw
oh word, i remember grinding turtle rep for flying
The reps are only Revered
so how do i get flying for my alt in pandaria?
Are you in a scenario?
you should just have to hit 30 and buy flying on that character
hmm ok
you still need to buy the training on each character
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?
anyone know the best way to farm timeless coins?
turns out the mini boss npc drop them lol
y there is a cave beneath frogs' beach (southeast side that is)
if you click the fire sitting in the chair, you will tp to Draenor so dont do it xd
or you can go to the higher side of the island, kill ordos npcs and take rep for the emp
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..
the event bags have them in them right? and you can also exchange the currency for them too (i believe)
Hi introduce my name is baron I want to offer you gold, are you interested?

Hello, I am in bastion on shadowlands, how can i go to location maldraxxus?
either fly or if still doing story quest finish the questlines to get to there
or bug through northern side's invisible wall and glide
What classes are recommended that would be less complex and are good in pvp(not arena) and will continue to be good.
does any1 know how to do this Macro?
Mind Blast has 2second cast and 8second CD
Smite is has 2second cast and has no CD
Cast Mind Blast if its available,
If its not available Cast Smite
Really confused how to do this
how can u change where my target like icon and the my character istself like location on me screen? (away from top left)
right click the frame, select unlock ( or is it move? ), drag to where you want it, lock again
I think you want to use /castsequence for this. https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/MACRO_castsequence So... maybe /castsequence reset=8 Mind Blast, Smite
@stoic basalt already sorted over in Retail 😄
Ah yeah I just noticed 😄
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 
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"
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
what happened to Wow's live chat support? It was sooo fast. Now a simple problem I have is taking 2 weeks...LOL
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
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
crud....i did not want to spend the extra..but i fear i may have to...
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
yeah, i totally missed all those deals, i had taken a break..
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 )
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
The only thing you’d have to do is level really since you’ll be at 50 now instead of 60
right
best DPS for dragonflight? as of what we know
don't think that's even been decided yet until launch tuning is finished
i know there's been buffs and nerfs sent out
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
hey guys. i cant see the little quest icon over ppl heads when im doing questline any tips?
Hey y'all back to playing after a 2 month layoff...was playing my shaman last night and I noticed he wasn't light attacking, no matter what weapon he had he wasn't light attacking during cooldowns. Is that a shaman thing or was it just a bug?
what's the macro for cast on self? wotlk doesn't have that inbuilt
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?
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?
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
Thanks ❤️
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
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
.
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 )
Just done the wq that gives 500 anima beside mor'greth but didn't get it, it validated the missions but I didn't get the reward
I was looking for an alt modifier macro to emulate what we have in retail, but I was mid raid and didn't wanna stop the raid to look for it
so umm
best race for horde for a shaman?
elemental shaman
played a fire mage on alliance and loved it but the people i play with main horde (didnt realise they even got back into wow until i made my mage lol)
i dont know if i can be bothered to level a mage when i already have one levelled
There's no best race
I'm sure that worked back then too, I just used button2 targeted at me just because 90% of the stuff I was using that wasn't self cast anyway was setup to be used on LMB so it was more intuitive to just RMB for me ( usually stuff like soulstone/circle etc )
usually at that point Orc or Troll are the safe bets, possibly Tauren for Enhance for Stomp
@keen pewter if the parser accepts it [mod:alt, @player] or [mod:alt, target=player] should replace the retail "just press alt"
Gotcha
I think most of mine are gone now since the stuff that self cast got rolled but my Pally might still have the Focus/Self for Flash Heal
gimme 2 secs to get in game
wanders off to get one of the toons that hasn't been tidied for a while
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```
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
aight cool thanks for the notices
There’s gonna be an heirloom that seemingly you can only get during prepatch
If that’s something that interests you
hello guys
im new in wow
and i bought subscription yesterday, and i cant join to guild
"couldnt create an application for the posting" error
PLS HELP
fixed nvm
Hello there, I am looking for a wow roleplay discord server with events organisations, guilds and other stuff. I play in the EU. Any recommandation?
Dont forget to mention me please with the replay, I might be tabbed out or not near this channel ^^
Will my 50 shadowlands boost go away when prepatch hits if i don't use it?
my WoD token says no
past tokens get upgraded over time and build up over time. i have 4 tokens in my char select menu sitting there from previous expansion launches and stuff
anyone getting this?
Anyone know a good place to farm arcane crystals?
ungoro/silithus mining thorium is one of the more reliable since the other is BW Lair and hope for bag drops
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
and they will most likely have way better gear and possibly tier items and are you both exactly the same for Covenant and Talents? 😉
we are level 20
ah, then it's likely just either gear or talents
we levelled at the same time same quests
so im not sure how lol
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?"
yep both same talents
also they may be not using fillers or managing to get better chaining on the spell casts
lots of things could affect it
pretty much same gear picks
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
hes got 3 more than me
but hes doing a shit ton of damage more than me
If he is the same class/spec/level/talents/gear as you but is massively outperforming then check his damage breakdown because he's just playing differently.
Also, you're level 20. Like 90% of the class isn't there yet so don't worry about damage too much.
I'm trying to get Legion done with my druid so I started with the Class order Hall questline; I went there and got my relic weapon, and teleported to Dalaran where a druid is supposed to appear and follow you around and give you the next quest "Growing Power", he appeared but didn't offer me the quest, so I reloaded then he doesn't appear now at all, any clue what's going on?
If levelling you don’t need to care about stats, you prioritise main stat over everything
Can someone help me with explainin a few things please?
i just got wow for the last week and have hit level 40 but i still dont know hwat i should be doing, apart from the quests
anyone have any tips for wat i should do or should o done by now lol
im a hunter worgen
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
ill do that today, ill look up where they are
google a site called Petopia, one of the best hunter pet guides available
is there certain stuff i should have? like ive just unlocked master rider but not a clue how to learn it
CHeck the site Petopia. Very helpful for hunters
thank you
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
You can talk to a guard for directions for anything in the city
sw?
Stormwind, sorry old habit to use shorthand
i wish i knew them lol
and yet for some reason I always type Ironforge out instead of IF
does anybod want to meet up and have a wonder showing me some things?
where is sormwind?
sory for all the questios haha
Stormwind is the main Alliance Capital you would have arrived in at the start of the game
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
so is that because i am a hunter that i went to kul tiras?
🤷♂️
this game is so confusing
my Worgen I'm using for heritage unlock went to SW but it was also a Death Knight
@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).
thank you for exlainin mate, im going to have a look now
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 
i appreciae any help man, its so confusing reaserching tips for this game as theres so muc lingo i am unfamiliar with haha
if in doubt... go to the site the discord is named after
mate youre a legend, muc appreciated
is there anything useful to buy for anima or cosmic flux when i already got tier set items and dont need transmogs from covenants?
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
there might be something in the interface settings BUT i advise against it since chat bubbles can be useful in certain content.
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 😄
i use elvui myself and it doesnt have it disabled
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
@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 😂
we are 26th yes
i wouldnt say we are a day behind you. you are just beta testing for us
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
We get ui next reset
ah... never change Blizz
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
Did you just take this SS or is it old?
that was still borked among other things as of 17th afaik
and not me, one of the ElvUI folk that's in beta
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
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
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
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
Nothing was wrong with the interface the last time I was on but I’m just one person
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
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
@umbral saddle good to hear, just the expected "it all broke" for addons to deal with every so often then
addons are always broken with each expansion
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?
most likely not till DF fully launches and becomes "current expansion"
Understood.
Hello, how to make macro for casting both shaman weapon buffs at once? (Flametongue n Windfury)
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"
dammit 😦 thx
if you use the mouse to cast bind it to left and right click
/cast [btn:1]Flame
/cast [btn:2]Wind
is it one click?
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
what does mean btn?
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 :(
no no its when you click the icon with the mouse xd
be unable to use it otherwise would suck
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"
so im playing wow classic lich king
but before that i got a 1 month subscription
and when im trying to do a feature it says that
i payed it for it already
any help?
game is weird like that at times give it some hours or a full day
when did you get the gametime? it takes up to 24 hours for it to lift all the restrictions
¯_(ツ)_/¯
things suddenly work
take a sleep you may have to relog too
and the wow subscirption works for wow classic and normal wow, right?
okiii 😄
correct
guy i so want to be able to paste emotes from other servers xd
then you need to get discord nitro
they are er like different games
oh....
classic is what the game was 15 years ago but a loooot of things changed since then
things some people consider a disgrace
so.... normal wow is better?
"It depends™️"
it's more, heh, modern
Has several quality of life things that really make the game keep going at a fluid pace instead of stalling every 5min (figure of speech)
soooowhat do u reccomend
in my mind rn, i wanna do normal wow
but i see people playing wow classic more
if you're just starting I'd say regular wow
oki, ill do that then
That's partly because regular wow is at the end of an expansion, and classic at the start of the most played expansion
So kinda column A column B situation
If you hover the grey button does it say anything?
no it does not
idk then
aye, mail/ah etc will stop any faction/server shifts
is there not usually a list of realms that are valid to move to as well?
yeah
bruh its cuz my free transfer ended
what a waste of time
why cant they just say if it works or not
classic blizzard
guys is it possible to reset raid instance? for example if i want to farm naxxramas but dont want to wait a whole day to do it again
No
a day? try a week
holyfuck
Raids reset on tuesday NA, wednesday EU
disaster
So it seems I finished an area, and have no idea where I should quest next.... where do I quest after Redridge Mountains?
anything useful i can buy with anima?
aside from 229 ilvl or whatever ilvl gear it was... i dont think so
the mounts from your covenant, transmog and stuff but that should be it.
^226
hey guys. Is it possible on wow classic to boost a second character to 70 or its just for 1 time?
pick a zone you like you dont have to, do something specific
well depends if you are in chromie time
ie some my fav zones are shadowmoon valley (in draenor ofc) or anything in pandaland
or if you prefer stay closer arathis highlands, duskwood etc
whichever's theme feels best :p
but if you aren't in chromie time keep an eye on your lvl, when you get 30 you have to go to outland or northrend
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
Altoholic will track that and more, not sure about "earned per day" though
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
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
I vaguely remember TSM doing similar but that might have just been for auction gold
in : selling Transmogs
out : loom upgrades, yak and TMogs
Like it breaks down where you’re getting your gold and where you’re spending it
I'm pretty simple in what I'm spending on these days 😄
@umbral saddle any idea if it plays nice with alto or do they conflict?
Naw both work together
cool, think I'll grab it tomorrow and see if I like it
that way I have a list for when DF hits of "if the new UI or engine doesn't cover it here's what I want again"
I’ll probably keep accountant and Allthethings but I might disable ATTs until I hit level cap on a few alts
i disabled att completly. idk but its just too much stuff in my tooltips for me
Well I’m looking for missing transmogs it’s nice but other than that it’s well…a lot
What determines when I can invite two guests to my Ember Court? My court is at level 3, but I'm still Neutral with the faction.
Nov 15 we can make a dragon, what are requirements
Are covenants still active on prepatch? I’m building a char from the ground up and idk what I’m supposed to prioritize
Preordering DF is the only restriction I believe
Whats the difficulty of torghast on prepatch/beta? Slamming my head into these 16s for the meta now because tier sets are going away but I heard they might be easier with the new talent trees
What am I getting wrong here?
It won't reset?
Also, all of my characters get the same message.
"Your instance lock"
Why would it reset? It's a raid, raids reset on a weekly basis (every Tuesday for na, or Wednesday for eu)
Anyone famaliar with pets here? I have levelled one to 25 but it still appears as Green uncommon in my journal? I thought it would turn blue at 25
no, the rarity is not depending on the level of your pet
you can use stones to make it more rare if i'm correct
@cosmic spear
You need to do the ember court atleast once for the tutorial
Then after that you’re free to invite up to 4 guests per ember court
Oh, I just go track them down in the world and invite them?
Hello, my friend and I are playing retail wow on different servers as well as different factions. What can/can't we do together?
thank you
oh, so it's not just cross faction/single player tagging that's changing?
anybody knows if blasted lands, udercity, uldum, silithus share a time lock?
darkshore darnassus etc which zidormis i have to speak with --
Yep, they also have a time lock with the same NPC
Anyone get stuck on certain % on pre release?
yeah foxy/SlimeCat had that problem yesterday. appearently unlocking the bandwith restrictions in the launcher and restarting everything did it 
Thank you so much
I got to work I had mine set to what my router is
I unchecked everything+ boom it worked..

anyone know why i cant launch ptr?
What error is it giving to you?
hey yall, i normally play furry warrior but wanting to get into a protection warrior, but i dont know where to get a good one hand sword or even a shelid, any advice??
hey yall, trying to move this bar but i dunno what the name of it is, anyone help?
Can you not shift+click drag it?
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
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
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
Yes
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
i tried doing that but it didnt remove the button from screen, assuming cause im using elvui?
yup, elv will anchor it to wherever you placed it until you toggle the anchors again and move it in that mode
ahh kk that makes sense now then
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
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
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
yeah fair that sounds like smtg id do lol
anyone wanna help me pick a class for retail? i'm jumping from classic to try dragonflight and idk what to play
that just depends on your playstyle, just play what you have fun with
anyone knows if legendary effects will be removed on pre patch 25 oct?
ok thx
that is if they didnt change anything since i read an article about it
ye actually this is a better answer i was thinking about the aze event
What's the most active and popular realm for alliance on retail WoW nowadays?
Silvermoon or ravencrest EU wise
ok cool thanks
any there know why i get port out when i try to do Stink bombs away in undercity
This happened to me a different characters. Once you talk to the time portal lady, you’ll be fine the next time you fly in.
The time portal Lady is not there
You should get dropped off by her when the broom fails. Not true for you?
whats a good item level to start doing mythic+?
guys on azeroth auto pilot im getting error missing quest 36476 in gorgrond?
after i chose what to build for the garrison
Quest ID 36476 has been removed / made obsolete so
So I want to get into World of Warcraft, because my Co-Worker suggested, that both of us chill a bit and go on raids and stuff.
So where should I start? Which bundle should I get?
Any things I should take care of before or at the start of my journey?
Thanks in advance!
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.
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)
hey im thinking of joining world of warcraft is there an inv code or something like that going on dont really see the point in trying till im level 20
Hey im new to the game and i've been playing this last two weeks and got to lvl 50 very fast, but now im stuck in quest that requires me to play some raids but in cant use the raid finder, so if someone can explain me how to do those missions works or how to do raids i will appreciate it so much thank u
Also my realm is one for new players idk if thats important but i guess it is
Hey all, does anyo know why talua isnt at krasus landing and im not getting the quest in dalaran to start the hunter class hall questline? i did the legion intro but skipped, im in the correct dalaran and have been running around for 5 mins just to be sure but nothing. its driving me nuts!
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. Thank you 
What quest is this? I’ve leveled many times and never been told to run a raid
My condolences
New player realms are traps
Usually comes at the latter half of certain questline, like running dazaralor/uldir after the main bfa story, doing nyalotha after 8.3 story etc
They will most likely not be easily doable without checking the legacy raid tab in custom groups, and either making ur own group or joining one that’s farming it for mogs/mounts
Tho most groups are only looking for lv60s as it helps a lot when it comes to smoothly clearing the raid
legion for example hands you both Valor raid and also Sargeras as optional end of questline options
Did you talk to Zidormi? She's at 69, 62 in Tirisfal
I have it done now i have to do a quest tides of war or somthing. After that she shows up
Oh ok, glad it's working out
Ye mb I should have clarified I meant what campaign is not only below level 50 but also is a required quest to finish zone/campaign
See above,
Was aware these existed just not in those conditions
oh, then in that case afaik the only one is part of Balance of Power at "50" since iirc that needs you to run Emerald Dream at least once and more likely twice
What's your favorite "collect LUA errors" addon? I'd like one that keeps a list I can refer to later, not one that spams chat or the screen while I'm playing
Bugsack buggrabber
You're a friend among friends. One of the very finest.
+1 for bugsack
Emerald nightmare :p
But even then, that's a side quest chain and is not part of the campaign (comes after class campaign)
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?
if you're using keys vs mouse clicks you can macro it to to [@mouseover] and a single keypress will drop it where the cursor is
WTB ability to use @player on D&D
I'm sorry but how do i do this?
someone can help me?
pls
🙂
what's the metter here? is it buged or something?
says i need rename 45, but i alrg have rename 65, like??
go to maldraxxus's hall there's a quest rewarding higher pvp ilvl
should i start in exiles reach or northshire valley
if you have to ask then you pick exiles reach
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
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```
It’s been 3 weeks since I submitted a support ticket…no answer. What happened to Blizzard???
lets see...
OW2 launch, Ban Waves, WOTLK launch etc etc etc
3 weeks seems long, but they were openly pushed from roughly 2 days to "at least 5 to 7 days+" at one point and probably still are
Thank you so much! I have trouble understanding your focus macro but I'm already happy with the death and decay one
has anyone an explanation about what an affix is? i try to explain it to a friend but dont find good words
it's a modifier on the dungeon to add stuff to kill or avoid or change how you run it
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
The Dread Pirate ring is obtatined from the Stranglethorn fishing derby, correct? Google is giving me conflicting info
Is the Stranglethorn fishing extravaganza the same thing as the booty bay fishing contest?
one of the better guides to it imo is in the comments here, it's the fishing comp every sunday
https://www.wowhead.com/quest=44765/stranglethorn-fishing-extravaganza#comments
battle of dazar alor
yeah? can i get some advice about realms?
anything high or full pop
ok thak u : D
preferably lean towards servers favour your faction of choice
which you can check using wow progress
the only use valor has in SL is to upgrade items that are obtained in M+/rated pvp not regular Mythic right?
Yeah, you don't need to run it, that is just a bonus quest
They have those quests for most raids
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
u can add more bars and u can key-bind so u get with the same keys more skills
for exaple, 1,2,3 for DMG and shift-1, shift-2 and shift-3 for more skills
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?
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
i only have 2 mouse buttons lol. working on getting a new mouse atm
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
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.
thats totally fine, 1,2,3 are very close keys and easy to access
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
u can try to put your dmg hability on one of your mouse buttons, dont get crazy with keybinds
so like, have a heal/shield on 123 and some offensive on mouse
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
yea, thats nice
aren't those already keybinds for something though
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
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
you can also use conditionals with macros to bind multiple spells to each key
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
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
simple stuff and proceeds to do a mkx combo
pick a class, do the trial, if you like it start it again fresh at level 1 in exiles reach and learn it from the ground up
easy starters are generally Warlock and Hunter due to pet ( possibly frost mage too ), then the DPS classes, then tanking/healing is either something you find easy or impossible depending how your brain works
especially since you need to learn as a tank to ignore DPS losing health and trust the healers
so classes have difficulties?
i find rogue a chaos class, all people say it hard, so tank might be harder xd
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 😂
is there a quick way to switch from an AOE setup to a single target setup?
elvui plus masque to skin the buttons, bar is also using a different texture than stock blizz
is there a quick way to switch from an AOE setup to a single target setup?
context needed, like what class/spec etc?
ele shaman .. im using mostly single target stuff right now but wanted to try more of an AOE setup but wondering if theres a add on or smtg that saves skill bar setups that i could just switch back and forth when and if needed
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
ahh alrighty, thanks!
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
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 😄
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
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 😉
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
Is anyone able to help with suramar quest chain? I have been stuck on this for hours and can't find an answer.
No quest markers left on map anywhere.
fairly sure suramar quests are locked behind rep levels
ie once you hit a new rep new quests show up
also make sure you have the masquerade mask on inside the city or quests wont show up
This is actually kind of amazing. Right now, im trying to fill the gaps that i had between playing wow and ff which.. isnt that easy.
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?
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
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
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
I use ElvUI. Need to turn on its Nameplate Module again and see if ive got such a thing
Enemy Player/Npc > Display Interruptible Spells
because you're asking it to target a non-existent dead enemy 😉
/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]
No, if i use the macro itself, it works splendidly
The /run is the problem
I love that font, please tell me its name
Gotham UltraNarrow, you'll need to get the addon SharedMedia to get it to work though
the way the conditionals are set in that it should not target anything the way my brain works, it should need nodead/harm/exists vs "dead and gone"
as for /run I'm not sure, I just bind mine via dragging to bars or the game menu usually
esc > keybindings > elvui keybind
@covert dirge apologies for ping. just to check that it's ok to upload/share open source fonts for people, couldn't see anything against it in rules?
Oh yeah, i just dont like the idea of having to "waste" a hotbar for macros
For Hotbars i use Dominos but same premise.
This actually makes the macro not work anymore
you don't need to, ElvUI will bind without it being on a bar. I just mean that because I'm a clicker I drag them to the bar anyway then the ones that are also getting bound I do that way on the bar
shows you how often I use stuff like that vs just setting next/previous to mouse buttons 4+5
Hmm... For this, i need to have ElvUI Hotbars on, right?
shouldn't have to, should work with just ElvUI. As you can see I was binding straight from spellbook here
I'll have no idea what it means 😄
Lovely, imma just guess then from whatever i can see
what's the starting line? as in usually something like error in <directory path>/interface/addons/<addon name>/blah.lua?
Message: Interface\AddOns\ElvUI\Core\General\StaticPopups.lua:485: attempt to index local 'frame' (a nil value)
also why Domino over ElvUI actionbars?
Uhh, ive used Dominos forever so now using anything but it feels unnatural
And i dont have the willpower to understand ElvUI entirely. and i use Dominos to hide WoW Features like the XP Bar
fair enough, for me it's the other way round where I went from Bartender + sUF to Elvui and now using anything but ElvUI seems weird 😄
Huh..
Not even the mouseover macro you gave me, wants to work
I still need to click to cast it..
Am i doing something wrong?
also... Elvui can disable bars 😉
yes, that's the "actual XP bar"
yeah
can also set it to hide in combat / mouseover only etc
lemme show you what i mean because i think we are talking away from each other
This vanilla xp bar
yeah, ElvUI grabs that if set right and then you just disable the xp databar if wanted or adapt it how you like
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
But thank you very much already. Now i just need to figure out whats causing lua errors, as per usual
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" 😂
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?
madlampy lua after `
like this
/run local p,f,j,z="player",CreateFrame("Frame"),0 f:SetScript("OnUpdate",function(s,e)j=j+e if j>.25 then j=0 z=C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition(C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit(p),p)PlayerName:SetText(format("%.6s %.1f, %.1f",UnitName(p),z.x*100,z.y*100))end
My only idea is that maybe D&D is a spell that requires a click?
