Luna - Void elves are what is called an Allied Race - so to be able to play one, you have to unlock them through a recruitment path. This will be easier in Shadowlands when they remove the reputation requirement, but for now you can work towards them when you have reached level 110 on preferably an Alliance character to then unlock as well, since they're in the Alliance.

Tabby, have you reached out to them to ask them to level some alts with you or something? They brought you into the game, they should support you at least until you get your feet under you
My friends were also lvl 120 and they made new accounts to help me lvl
Ask them to do that
Alts, not accounts*
I see :o
Since I got free boosts with the thingy I bought, would I be able to boost a char to 110, unlock elfs and then just play on that properly?
they r not gonna do that cuz they just bought the new expansion
You'll have to meet the requirements to do so, but you could do that yes
I mean buying the new expac doesn't mean much right now
It's not out
they said we were gonna play together but they just leveled without me cuz i had to wait like 2 days for the payment to go thru
Nothing but themselves is stopping them from leveling with you to help
Well that's kinda rude of them tbh
and i have a lvl 13 character but icant do the quest im on cuz i keep dying
@old zinc That guide doesnt tell me which ones are the best for me to buy, just how to get them and where
What's your class
So you need leather
Already made suggestions in #classic-wow because you asked there
Preened wildfeather set and headmasters charge
It doesn't actually matter anymore, all the sets swap stats now
So you can get Intel on shadow-whatever and agil on wildfeather
They activate based on spec
Hey I just killed Ra-Den, but I'm not getting any loot. On wowhead comments someone is saying this is a bug because I don't have group loot. Will the stuff get mailed or am i cucked?
Interface
Action Bars
Apologies if I am asking this in the wrong channel, but in Retail WoW Horde side I am working on the 100 Exalted Reputations and it seems some of them are not counting towards the achievement. I've checked the Wowhead guides for the achievement but some of the reps that should go towards it are not counting. Thank you for any help or direction you can give.
which ones do you mean?
The Saberstalkers, Gelkis and Magram Clans are at exalted and should count but the achievement didn't go up regardless.
that is weird, have you tried relogging?
I have relogged and it still shows they are not counting towards it.
I can look through my others.
I just find it weird. I don't know if I was late in getting rep with one or what not but...I don't know.
I would suggest sending a ticket
I will give it a go. Thanks for the help though. 🙂
good luck and I hope the problem will be solved (:
can you get gold in the free version of WoW?
Let's hope. Because I ran down the lists on the guide from the website. I checked the comments to see if the ones I needed didn't count but all checked out so this is weird.
If you're on a starter account you can get up to I think 10 gold and you cap at level 20
^
Starter accounts might pull more players in once they change the starter experience, looking forward to that
I see the starter account changing to only being the new intro zone
Well the intro ends with going to your home city
hey, still new to the game. i just have some questions about gearing
so i ve done some lfr raids and received some decent loot. i just started mythic dungeons and it seems that mythic 7 or so already have better gear than what lfr raids offer
so is it better to do lfr raids or just spam dungeons for gearing
thats what i m thinking
Also lfr is hit or miss
What ilvl do you need for mythic dungeons?
what does it mean when an item wants to bind?
It means itll become soul bound and become untradeable
oooh okay i thought it was something like you cant get rid of it lol
Yeah you can still sell it to a vendor, but not on the AH or to another player
oh okay
thats fun lol
i like how most of the dialog ive heard so far is just "i am forsaken"
As a Warlock is there ever a reason to use a summon besides Felguard and sometimes Voidwalker for the taunt? It doesn't feel like its ever correct to summon Succubus or Imp
i think imp is better if youre smthn like destructionlock at max level since its just pure casted burn
succubus seems more like a CC pet but prob just not great
It does? I didn't even know that, I just always use it because Demonic Strength feels 10x better than every other skill you can use
Felguard also has aoe
how do ppl get those mount things i keep seeing them and want one cuz i feel too slow
if you're referring to the bike and sidecar
you get that from owning multiple account-wide Heirloom items for leveling alts
which likely aren't an option for you
probably not but what about those like dragon things i see people riding
Dragonhawks you'll get just by hitting level 60 and doing the flying mount quest
if thats what you mean
oh alright well im lvl 20 so im sure ill get there in like 7 years
yeah flying mounts, in the 300-odd various forms, are level 60
nah, with the xp bonus level 60 will probs take under a week
what xp bonus?
atm there's 100% bonus xp gains from all sources
cause of coronavirus keeping folks in
i think it's the Winds of Wisdom buff you have?
oh yea
i saw something about the bad blood curse or whatevere its called making a come back or something
is that just bs or should i be scared
absolute bs
Bs
nice
it was a product of vanilla WoW being, all said, a pretty janky game
yea i saw this cool video on it and thats why i decided to get the game
Its a scam
what?
you've lost me there too chief, wha
no the video was talking bout what happened
and how WHO wanted to take data from it for futare pandemics foreshadowing
And @hearty snow ask in the group finder chats, this isn’t the chat for that
i saw something about the bad blood curse or whatevere its called making a come back or something
This is scam
Oh ok sorry I'm new here so I haven't discovered much yet. Thanks @sand lava
whos this lich king?
Leader of the scourge
The undead army
then why does the banshee queen hate em
Cause the old one killed her and enslaved her soul
mm
the old one?
old lich king
Arthas Menethil
mm
Bolvar Fordragon is the current one
Or “was”
the new lich king, there as a matter of necessity, basically said 'i'm gonna sit here and do nothing'
Until shadowlands I guess
whats shadow lands lol
nice
I would probably look up some lore videos rather than asking a million questions in here tbh
you dont need to answer
(also jhock see my post in offtopic)
i just like talking to people rather then just listen to someone drone on about something
how do i do zandalar forever? im trying to do pathfinder 1
https://www.wowhead.com/flying pick your server and your character name, it's help me a whole bunch currently knocking off my last two factions for BFA flying
Ilvl 321, why do I not have the option to queue for heroics??
thats not a high enough item level for hem
thx @abstract bison ill give that a shot
Wait does the Pally passive extra holy dmg apply on LF Draenei racials?
Anyone know what that HUD is below my character? Id like to remove it
that looks like an addon, unless you mean the health and focus bar
wait that HUD is cool, I mean your whole kit, I was myself thinking about getting addons that could help my Pally, more specifically a bigger, MOBA-style HP/XP bar, right under the action bar
Can't find one tho
thats elvui
Elvui, but i dont have any WA's running
because the vanilla HP/mana bar is a bit small and I tend to ignore it too much
Would elvui be like the best UI addon for a beginner?
Also I've noticed when Asmongold tanks in a raid or dungeon, every single possible damage stat that his allies or him do, and even all the damage they take, pops up on screen
not just HIS damage done
is that a normal option or an addon?
and I'm not speaking about Details! meter
not sure if you guys know what I mean
thats scrolling battle text, theres an option for that in game I think
I see, and would you recommend ElvUI to a beginner? I know how to setup and configure addons but I mean is the UI actually informative?
its just a display change
ui addons are more preference if anything
elvui is very customizable though
is it more customizable than the normal one? My main issue with the normal ui is visibility
Ah
the only addons i have up are elvui and details
I'll try it
and DBM
Hey is it true Ret Pallys used to be an abhorrent class back in vanilla? and they usually just got denied by guilds? if so is that still an issue where Warriors are usually just prioritized?
My guess is that Ret Pally bring alot of versatility but that utility is kind of useless if your party is coordinated and your healers do their job
are you talking about retail or classic now
Where do I install my UI pack?
C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\LeilaUI427
I tried this path but It didnt work
@digital quiver Where do you put the UI?
same with prot paladin
really?
yeah, the only tank people actually used really was warrior
So warriors were just... better in two of the main specs?
damn
Is that still an issue? I heard it's alot better now but there is still bias for warriors
which version of the game are you talking about??
I see, Idk I got called a Pally Sperg and Holy Cuck a couple times by randoms in dungeons
idk what sperg even means kek
no idea but yikes
I let it slide because it sounds like a meme and to be frank I don't really care lmao
Meh, my Lightforged Pally is still low lvl, so I'll see later about a guild anyways, but I can't wait to finally raid

it should be right above your normal bar
the intro stuff should be giving you a tutorial too
Why can't i put things in the auction house , they say "you can't put things in the auction house with the starter pack" yet i pay for a subscription, do i need the latest expension to be able to put stuff into the ah? that wouldnt make sense
(I'm retail if that changes anything, and i subscribed today)
likely hasn't been unflagged as starter account yet
can you not xmog the balance of power artifact skin?
Not allowing me to receive guild invites or apply for guilds, and invites aren’t blocked. Anyone know why?

Question about blood of the enemy, cause i hate doing PVP, if i were to get the rank 1 on an alt could i then purchase the rank 3 on my main from mother?
You need rank 3 one way or another
Account wide essences only lets you share your maxed out essences
Does anyone know how to use wow head to where it teells you what quests you havent done @everyone
Not sure where to post this, looking at possibly coming back to wow and have a couple questions. I last played during mist of pandora.
Do i though? i'm sure i got so many of my alts essences that i'd unlocked rank 1 of but not rank 3 on my main, i've kinda lost track
You have to get rank 3 to male it buyable account wide
yes
I said yes in #retail-wow
when you upgrade your heirloom to 110 that mean item scale to that lvl
stop asking in both channels
tell him
im talking to everyone
i see
We told him in retail too
If somethings level says ?? is it safe to assume it's gonna one shot me?
Hello 👋🏻, what are a few things that I can do to progress in retail wow ? I’m new 120 orc warrior
How does one go about picking a profession
pick whichever you want
That is a possible option to choose by but generally it is more fun to pock by what you enjoy
Dunno what lore has to do with professions
I mean I pick professions based on RP, but lore??
I guess if your race has a history with a specific one
Whats better for a tank, critical strike or haste
I think crit?
depends for which tank, tbh, but yeah I guess crit is good while leveling atleast
just because more damage, aka more threat
@modern herald Where can I buy heirloom legs?
Guild vendor and undercity seller doesnt sell them
either not enough guild rep, or guild hasn't unlocked, I guess
Why cant I get the xp for random dungeon?
Or see any dungeons at all
I need help.. I cancelled my DK chain main quest
I can't leave the map
And I can't get it back....
Just in case you haven't figured it out yet, you can't see any dungeons in the dungeon finder, because you need to finish your Death Knight intro questline first. You must complete all those initial quests before you can explore freely.
Do you remember what quest are you supposed to be on now? What do you mean by "can't get it back"? You can't reach or see the questgiver or does he not offer the quest anymore?
@dark acorn
Does anyone know if its possible to transfer char to another account?
if it bears the same surname, and blizzard has to approve it manually
but there is precedent
My Blizzard app says I should update my game
When I update it it says something went wrong
Is the game having a new patch or something?
I used to play quite a bit back in the day, and I see the details damage meter is pretty popular now, is it better than recount, or does it matter which I use? Also, does anyone have a general list of good addons to have?
@tawny dew Details is the most popular because its the most customisable.
Recount had a stint in Legion where it was suoer inaccurate; assigning pet damage to the wrong players and stuff like that. I'm not sure how it is now, though.
Generally just scroll through the Top/Most Downloaded on Twitch installer to get a good idea of whats popular; but remember less is more when it comes to addons
What I really couldn’t get a feel for is the current best for quest/achievement/collection tracking. Where it’ll show me everything I haven’t done in regards for those. I saw things like wholly and completist but dunno which I should use for that
Thank you for your answer as well!
yo can someone help me out with finding a new UI, I'm trying to understand "plater" and "shadowed unit frames" but dude it's so confusing I just want a nice layout like all the streamers
Twinking, unique appearance or both.
hi all. is mining+blacksmithing still a good prof combo for tanks?
is that even a thing any more...?
I have mining, but looking for another
Profs aren't something you take for your class in retail anymore some crafted armour becomes useless very quickly
For the profs you want
Mining is a safe passive one since you can sell your ore on the AH, blacksmithing isn't so great right now but any crafting profession has it's risks
makes sense
real dumb question... where do I actually make things in BFA, like actually smith
I think just by an anvil
But you're gonna need bfa blacksmithing I think
At least every other prof has bad skills you need to buy
Do i need to equip an item for it to be added to my appearance collection?
I think some are automatically added but for most things yeah
you can only transmog armor of the same type (so plate to plate, mail to mail, etc)
I see
guys i dont understand expansions , do u need all expansions or just the latest one? do latest expansions overwrite older expansions? does content from expansions become available to everyone after a new one comes out? im confused bruh
You only need a subscription to play all expacs through to 110 - aka Legion
Once you get there you will need to buy BfA to progress further, at least until Shadowlands comes out
You may want to purchase BFA immediately if you want the boost to level 110. Boosting when you are a new player has some pros and cons. Basically, if you boost, you are forced to learn much more in a short amount of time, but you also skip a lot of the boring part.
It's really not recommended to boost
Depends who you ask. IIRC, Nixxiom for example recommends to boost.
It's a huge learning curve if people don't already know what they're doing
It also varies on how people learn things
Honestly, I see it doing a lot more bad than good
I'm new and i boosted a character did force me to learn but it was worth it u got some youtube tips u watch and all if ur down to learn quick it helped me
Hi, I wanted to buy WoW. And I pressed on "upgrade available" in the launcher now... I haven't played WoW in YEARS so, does this include every expansion before BFA? Or is this just BFA only? It doesn't tell on the page
Oh and I mean the standard edition btw, not the deluxe (despite it being highlighted) don't really need those extras, lol
@pallid fulcrum This is just for BFA. If you only want to play Legion and older, then you only need to resubscribe.
Nah I want to have ALL expansions tbh
Then you buy BFA and resubscribe. No need to buy any other expansion.
I see, if my subscription runs out, do I lose everything related to that expansion? So for example I find some unique sword in Legion or something or have a character that uses the Legion class (Demon hunter, was it?) Will I lose those?
No
I haven't played WoW in like.... 10 years or so. So everything is new to mee
You never lose anything or regress
Ok, so I can keep using that demon hunter character but simply won't be able to travel to any expansion-locked areas?
Without a subscription you can't play anything over level 20
^
But nothing gets deleted if your time lapses
I see...
So for example a battle box, is actually just a box for a subscription?
That would explain why I had to purchase Pandaria seperately back then
There's no Battle Chest anymore, it's been reduced to simply a Sub + Current Expac
Additionally, if you log on any of those level 1-20 characters, you will be limited by certain "Veteran account" restrictions (which are similar to Starter account, but with some small differences).
What are those differences? Is it just the ability to join a guild if another character on the account is in it?
Battle Chests shouldn't be purchasable anymore
DIfferences:
- Veteran account characters are able to hold more than 10g on their characters, but they won't be able to earn any more. In short, no gold is taken. Similar with professions.
- There are certain profession recipes that can be crafted on Starter accounts but not on veteran. Starter accounts are only limited by profession level cap, Veterans have some recipes marked as uncraftable even if learnable below that cap.
- That thing you mentioned about the guilds.
Wait I don't get 2 and 3. So for 2; Why are they marked as uncraftable then? I don't get that. and 3: Just the whole sentence I don't get. So if you don't have a subscription but are no longer starter account, you can't join the same guild on 2 diffeereent characters?
Wouldn't you get kicked out of that guild then? Sorry, this whole subscription thing is incredibly confusing to me
Hi everyone, on the internet they say to do The Culling of Stratholme to drop a cool dragon mount. i'm a lvl 91 warlock can i solo it? If not, how can i find a group for that? 🤔 (I'm playing retail)
@pallid fulcrum "Veteran accounts" are accounts that have at least once paid the subscription or bought game time, but it run out. If you have subscription or gametime, you are not restricted in any way as you would be playing on a regular account.
I don't know why some recipes were marked as uncraftable. This is basically the only way in which Starter accounts are better than Veteran, but it is outweighted by pretty much everything else.
wait when is shadowlands coming out ?
December I thought I read
@pallid fulcrum The 3 is opposite of what you think. You ARE able to join a guild with your character ONLY WHEN you have another character in that guild. You can't join other guilds.
Oh I see
One last question; I've heard that if you buy an expansion, it comes with 30 months play time, or, subscription, is this true?
hi, sorry to jump in, tagging on to whats been discussed, but i recently picked WoW back up (haven't played since cata) and was planning on just using the subscription to play through mists and legion before buying BfA. I think I'm gathering ill get a level boost to 110 on a single character if i buy BfA now?
Yeah, the expacs come with a boost to set you up to begin current content
@pallid fulcrum This is not true. New players can get a 30 days + expansion bundle. BFA doesn't come with game time. If you prepurchase Shadowlands Epic edition you can also get 30 days (in addition to other bonuses), but it is not included in Shadowlands Basic and Heroic editions.
so get the boost and find a guild to help run some dungeons to get decent gear? i dont think im running any higher level dungeons healing with the gear i have from mists
Umm, so I just hit level 61 and I can't queue for classic dungeons anymore.. but I wanted a mount from that dungeon, is there anything I can do to get my lvl 61 inside classic dung?
You'll wanna be a bit higher in levels but you can just roll on up in there and murder stuff
Good luck on that mount, btw. It's pretty rare.
@pallid fulcrum I recommend that you level up your character more and then you will be able to do the entire dungeon without anybody's help.
As a healer? solo?
I don't see why not.
its just crap that the lfg works like this.. should have just scaled my level down to 60
I am a shaman, a healing one
Hmmmm does Resto have chain lightning?
oddly you can do that with a (yes) level 60 in your group
I reached level 60 to unlock all the dungs, and I leveled inside the first dungeon and suddenly I got locked out of them =c
Yeah I had a DH in my Stockades random dungeon
@wary kestrel yes, but going around asking people if they wanna run dung with me doesnt really work
it's weird that while FFXIV will scale you down, WoW will only scale you down to accompany someone of the proper level
which i can't quite figure the logic of
Do you get skills restricted?
besides 'coding hard'
in WoW
ye
I hadn't tinkered yet
don't ask me how DH/DK works
lol
although in hindsight they might allow a FFXIV-like system when level is reworked
who knows
Perhaps
They're implementing the map marker/coords mechanic
It'll be nice to not need TomTom for that shit
they can make one enemy have more levels for every player around, but they cant scale your level for dungen, kek
i mean, yes they can
but only when you're queueing with someone of appropriate level
^
@wary kestrel ye but you can't find anyone cause there is no lfg like that, asking random people doesnt work =D
I suppose they don't want players to get bored running classic dungeons all the way to level 120 or something.
so they lock you out even if you want to get that mount =D Pathetic, aaah well... >.> back to game
again, not so much cause you can just overlevel it and come back
and with this xp buff especially, it's not like that takes that long
also laughs in hitting level 80 off a Halatali run
What are the main playstyle differences between the healing classes ?
Druid focuses on HoTs
priest - infinite mana
shaman - mana drinker
Paladin is more for larger heals in one
Which of the healers has high utility outside of raw healing output
oh hm
i'd say not paladin and not priest
hard tie between druid and shaman but their utilities differ
Like I was playing monk and their heals are pretty strong, but besides healing I didn’t think they brought much else
Shaman gets utility from totems right? So I would be managing those?
Paladin is all about being close to those you heal, landing crits and doing melee damage
Shaman is super flexible with good aoe and single target
restoration shaman is very good healer, several instant heals, and others are quite a short-cast
The only shaman totem of notable utility is spirit link
Spirit link is one of those things where you're recruiting one for your raid team for it
Is shaman kinda gimmicky?
no
the only 'gimmicky' healer is paladin atm, and that will change come shadowlands
cause the current viable hpld build leans heavily on azerite traits
Hmm, so which healer would you say has the strongest tool kit that doesn’t rely on being overturned or gimmicky
shaman imo
define strong aaahh
like
even if shaman was the best, you wouldn't pack a raid team with shaman healers
tbh i think thats too harsh for pally, you can do a lot of content very well without the perfect trait setup
yeah ill agree its a bit pigeonholed
Strong - meaning they are desired in content and bring tools to a group besides just high numbers
at the end of the day that applies to all of them
being good will be infinitely more desired than having weird techs
i dont think there are any healers right now that are significantly worse, but some are def better than anothers and have their own weaknesses
holy lacks dps, disc is high risk, shammy is a little undertuned, hpally is simple/limitedresto druid im pretty sure is still just super good tho
not sure about mistweaver
and currently it's not uncommon for dps/tank specs to have similar utility tech to healers, thus removing that
Do you guys think Druid is just strong in general due to the nature of their HOTs and instant casts
100%
the only reason why I dont play it is because I don't care much for the other druid specs
Yeah the other Druid specs don’t interest me and how do you feel about Shapeshifting
Cus it really turns me off from the class
rdruid is desirable cause played well it has a higher dps output
due to the nature of HoTs allowing more gcds for dps casts
however HoTs will not save you against spike damage
that being the reason nobody sane runs a raid team with 3 druid healers
flavour wise I love druids, but feral has a high skill ceiling without a lot of payoff, guardian is just a bit boring, and i'm meh about balance
yeah
feral you need to be comparatively shit hot to be on par with many other dps specs
please consult this meme
accurate 
Lol
I tried DH was fun for about 5 hours
Then I realized how unsatisfying the rotation was and how lame the animations are lmao. I guess I just don’t like green that much
the tank spec feels super fun cause of the mobility but i'm put off there being only 2 specs
I'm stuck on a quest is anyone able to help?
any1 has an idea why the fk I cant get to drustvar or any other allie regions
I dont have any quests
Nathanos gives me a questo going to Drustvar but I dont get an option at the flightguy to go to drustvar wtf
I talked to him, didnt do anything
He had a convo w Nathanos but
Didnt do anything
...hrm
How do i enter the dungeon and make it heroic, google really doesn't help me here
i'm surprised it doesn't. step out, rightclick your character portrait, select difficulty
@stark bloom
Hey is Wowhead.com malfunctioning?
Can't seem to get any info, just pages with some images and links loaded but no actual data or comments. Happening to me and a friend in another state. Thanks.
Any tips on how to get the voidtalon mount?
ive been following the guide but have had no luck :(\
it's very rare
What I did back in Legion was: I left my 4 alts in all Draenor zones around the spawn points (Gorgrond, Nagrand, Frostfire, Shadowmoon). I logged in at different times of the day and flew around the spawn points. My main however was flying between Talador and Spires of Arak spawn points (because I had not enough chars to leave 1 in each zone, and the main has 310% flying speed). I always used the TomTom macros to make sure I did not miss any spawn points. And after couple of days, one time when I was flying to the furthest Talador spawn point I just came across the portal.
I don't think the best way is to camp one spawn point, because there are just too many possible portal locations
Could you believe i have 49 different mounts so i need only one more for the Albino Drake 😔
yet i dont know where to find it
@rugged osprey I had same issue
@white pagoda Seems to have resolved on its own.
do we know anything about heirlooms in shadowlands?
i dont wanna invest now if they arent goign to be used in expac
theyre not going away, but we dont know if the upgrade levels are staying or not
it is still worth investing to get the mount
a few
My DK doesnt have the "Blood drinker" ability
How can I get it?
talent
how do i upgrade my hearthsteads speed
or does it upgrade when i buy journeyman riding
upgrade riding
and the mount upgrades with it?
All of them do
Remember the times when there were mounts with certain max speeds?
But all of them now have the max speed possible if you have the training
Ok quick question; I'm going to buy a subscription for one month now, just to see how good I am able to juggle WoW between my other MMOs and games I want to play. But I am thinking of buying the BFA expansion immediately as well, but, I'm not sure if I get anything extra out of that, like are there any special mounts and so on. Or when do I even start expansion content? Keep in mind my highest level character right now is a level 20 Human Paladin (Yes how original, I know, will not be my main tho once I enable DK, lol). But yeah, should I buy BFA with it as well or just wait until I have "expansion level"?
You won't really need BfA until you reach the appropriate level and if you're not 100% that you'll keep on with it it's better to hold off on buying the current stuff until you decide more solidly.
Hmh, alright, fair point. I like WoW, used to play on my cousins account waaaay back in the when I visited him. Then I bought a battle box and mists of pandaria, played a bit aaand.... never played again, lol. I don't know why. Now I do want to get back, however, I also play ESO now as well. Which I also have a subscription for (ESO+) and well.... I don't want it to get all too costly after a while. Plus, it's a bit useless if I buy a subscription and not play much
if you're not already playing wow, settle with only dropping money on a sub for a month or two before deciding to buy the expansion
Right, fair point. Though I must ask, how exactly do I start an expansion? Is there like a prompt when you get a certain level or how does it work? Apologies if I seem dumb, like said, I haven't seriously played WoW in 10+ years
When you reach of level and return to your primary city you'll get a pop up quest leading you in the correct direction
Ah, good, a bit like GW2 then (another MMO I play). Well, I'll be going ahead now and buy a 1 month subscription, see how well I can balance it with my other games, see if it's worth it. Good thing I can run it semi-well on my laptop, so I can play anywhere, haha
Ok I need help, I'm trying to pay with PayPal since apparently I can't pay with iDeal (That's what we Dutch use) but PayPal asks me to add my credit card which I don't have! That's why I use paypal
Any way I can get around this or pay with iDeal after all?
Yes, but I don't think I can link that
iDeal is oddly available when I use this link tho
But I'm not sure if that's what I am looking for, if that even includes all DLC
nah, that's just subscription
bear in mind, subscription does include everything BUT bfa...?
I know, that's the point. But I don't understand why paypal forces me to add a credit card which I don't have. I have enough funds on it
It does work with other services like Crunchyroll
probably because of some law in california if i were to guess
since blizz is based in california
Well, game time does seem to work with ideal, but how much different is that from a subscription?
Same thing but non-recurring
I see, guess I'll go use that then. I'll send Blizzard a mail as well asking why PayPal isn't working. It appears to happen with ESO too
Even Spotify!? What is going on.... This is very odd
hello i am new to the game and i am very lost would someone be able to hop in a call with me for no more than 5 min so i could ask a few questions
what happnes to essences and azerite power in shadowlands?
nothing
they just stop being good because the regular gear outscales them
tho the essence abilities supposedly wont work in the shadowlands
maybe
¯_(ツ)_/¯
ok cool so its not a carry over system theyll be implementing in shadowlands?
just wanted to see if it was worth grindign on alts
i mean - itll still work in timewalking
This is a guide on how to obtain the Disc of the red Flying Cloud mount along with getting exalted with the Lorewalkers quickyly. While doing this you will also get the acheivements Between a saurok and a Hard Place, The Dark Heart of the Mogu, Fish Tales, Hozen in the Mist, T...
i was following that
and im at the first fountain and nothing happens
is this still doable?
Yeah, just make sure you're in the right phase
the right phase? There's phases? 👀
Yeah, there's 'Current Content' and 'The Past' where it's all fucked up
You need to be in the past
oh and how the hell do i do that 😮
In front of the doorway for where the Lorewalkers hang out there's a lady standing in a beam of light kinda deal
talk to her
can you be more specific? I'm sorry im just coming back from 7 years of not playing so im very lost ^^' where is that lady :/
Is it ok if im horde?
Yup, she's neutral
She looks alliance to me, not wanna be racist
nice
Thanks a lot! I'm gonna try that
Have fun and good luck!
@old zinc im losing my mind i cant even find Zidormi!
I'm googling and people say her old location
im at Mogu'shan Palace and i don't see her anywhere
She's in the same spot in both phases
She's up
Fly up on the ledge over the portal
there's a whole little enclave up there
im here right now
She's outside the door to the right
??
It'll take me a sec to fly over there
thank you very much ❤️
Does your Vale look like this
Ok yeah you're on the right phase
🤔
you can't see Zidormi because you haven't unlocked that phase of the Vale to begin with
I went on my fresh 120 warlock and realized
is that a bad thing also can i do the video thingy? 😦
No, you're on the correct phase, just have to locate the scroll
what scroll? Jesus im sorry for those basic questions...
The scrolls you're collecting to get the rep so you can get the disc from the Lorewalkers
They're really easy, just about locating them all
Are you able to use addons at all?
alright but the dude was near a fountain and i was at the exact same place and it didnt show any sign of anything i could click
also yes i use addons just i downloaded the game yesterday so i havent downloaded everything yet
this is a really nifty plugin (You'll want handyNotes itself as well) that will show all the scrolls on your map for you
mmmh alright
hahaha
It never yells at me and I spam all the time
lol
its so complicated just to be able to fly on a nimbus 😦
It'll be worth it, and it's not too bad once you get the hang of it
what's a pretty easy dungeon for a +2 key?
thx again ^^
How i can go to dalaran if im horde?
What’s a recommended quest tracker add on? Looking for one to show available quests and hopefully tomtom integration
@old zinc
well, 70-80 is Wrath or BC
80-90 is Cata/MoP
90-100 is WoD
100-110 is Legion
110-120 is BfA
So uh just go do quests and shit dude
can anyone link the official wow discord server?
If they make anything official I bet its a Community.
The feature in the game that nobody uses
@old zinc
Why do you keep tagging me specifically
Is it because I turned off DMs from this server
Because you, a stranger, messaged me out of the blue unwarranted?
so now i cant ask for help?
Ask for help, that's what this channel is for
But don't ping specific people
not ping a specific person to answer you
I'm not here to be at your beck and call
you are a very arrogant person
... but... it's true though?
If anyone is arrogant it's you
you really don't need to @ someone or PM them out of nowhere
in this channel, just ask
I'm being nice to not block you
somebody will answer when/if they have time
How long does it take to farm rank 4 memory of lucid dreams?
Alot
you need all of the agents to be level 10
7 days each assuming that you already have rank 3
Lucid Dreams the uh
Nazj one?
so 21 days
yes
ok so not level 20?
It used to be level 30
They tuned the achievment down to 10 😄
Yeah I don't even have that one yet cuz I'm capping everyone one at a time
ok sweet, I'm close then
shaman here in classic wow, I'm level 11, are there any tips to survivability? Stuff like razormane mystics are bascially impossible to kill because of their healing. Seems like half of my hits are dodged,parried,etc.
You should ask classic questions in classic wow channel, cause the game has changed quite alot. and even shaman players in bfa cant give you that much tips
also wait
jesus a whole server, thanks!
yup
but uh.. besides telling you to skill up your weapon proficiency, and IF it's available (not too well versed in Classic ability levels) use Wind Shear
then the Disc from Ellusive's your best bet
I looked up an area guide for profession leveling and it just ended up confusing me. Is there a different herbalism talent for BfA? My herbalism skill is 1-315 max currently, do I learn the special herbalism when reaching a certain rank or would I need to retrain into it later?
Yeah, it's all separated by expac now
You'll have to go to a trainer in a relevant zone to learn the next section thing
So I start with the 1-315, then when I max that I can learn outland or soming?
I saw that I can just learn zandalari herbalism right away. Is there any point learning the base herbalism? Does it change what I can gather or anything?
Ooooh so its all categorized under "Herbalism" but they each have a seperate progress bar?
Yes
Ah alright that makes it a lot simpler for me. I was very confused. I thought you had to pick an herbalism to learn and that was that. Thanks!
Another thing, when mousing over pets in the wild it says "collected 1/3". Why do I need 3?
You don’t thats just the max
is it possible to play shadowlands beta if i buy it
nope
So, I want to level a void elf to get the heritage armor but Im divided between making a dk or some other class. If I do a dk I will for sure get to 110 and maybe 120 before the boost ends, but If I do a normal character I might not get to 100 before the boost deadline. I would love to level the character even after the boost ends but I usually get burned out because of how boring leveling is. So what would you recommend I do?
Make a DK and level faster
Or chose a more enjoyable class?
the xp buff last until prepatch, which is months away
Hey guys, Ive started playing WoW just recently (mainly a solo games player), and Im curious, what is ninja looting? How can I avoid it?
Is loot in this game shared? Like, when I take something from boss, can this be an item for somebody else?
With Personal Loot set as default for all random groups, ninja looting is no longer a thing
We don't roll on drops in the traditional way anymore, what you get is for you
If someone else needs it more than you do, you have the option to trade it to them for a limited time, but that's entirely optional
But one of the items I got from dungeon has "Not available in Personal Loot" in the description
What does it mean?
I can't recall ever seeing anything like that
Anyway, so there is no such thing as ninjalooting now? Its only a problem in wow classic?
Basically
But I can also drop a gear if I think that somebody needs it more than I do
amirite?
You can trade it to them, yes
Thx man, now everything is clear
@sterile acorn Also, I believe you can only trade items if they have equal or lower item level to the best item in that slot that you had already owned. That way no one can pressure you to trade away an item that would be an upgrade to you.
I'm very new to wow and recently i hit 120 on my mage so me and a friend started farming dungeons and other stuff to get my item score up and i think in all the stuff we were doing i abandoned the visions of n'zoth questline quest and i don't know how to get it back.
the last thing i remember doing in the questline was getting the heart of azeroth and thats it
idk if i left after getting it and bugged the game but i could really use some help
So i logged in on my level 110 warrior, and wanted to get him to 120 before BFA, but my problem is i have no clue where to go or what to do.
I'm on The Heart of Azeroth quest, and it told me to get to Silithus, but the marker on the map has nothing here, i watched a couple youtube videos and they don't go to the same place at all.
@silent idol Which version of Silithus do you see? The one with a gigantic sword in the middle, or the old one?
hello I'm still kind of new to wow and played as a worgen worrior i was wondering if it is a good idea to switch to a hoard character
@cobalt flint it was the one without the sword, i talked to the person and they switched it
@trail cape That's really personal preference. I'd recommend play both and just travel both sets of cities and see who you like more starting out
alright thank you man
best tip for getting into WoW and having fun?
@silent idol Yeah, you need to switch back to the sword version.
@pallid fulcrum Dont follow meta
Leveling by zone isn't a thing anymore right? Since everything is scaled no matter what kind of quests I'm doing I'll be getting the same amount of experience no matter?
I mean theres still a thing, zones through a expac is not a thing anymore
so no matter what Wotlk zone you go you can level through 70-80 for instance
so 1-60 will always be through main continent, 60-70 outlands, and etc? Do the mobs stop scaling in those areas or will they always be at my level, even at 120?
And thats as in I can level anywhere in that expac area, as long as I'm qualified for the area?
~They will stop
@tawny dew Zone levels can be checked on each continent's map. You can't for instance go to Tanaris at level 1.
Ive installed these settings, however they never show in-battle or ingame how can I enable them
@tawny dew But overall, there is now a lot more freedom and you don't need to switch zones as often.
Ah, thats good. So its basically just level minimum and you can quest in zones
Hey guys, quick question. How do i know if im doing a “main” story line quest as opposed to an “extra” and unnecessary quest?
I want to cut out the trash quests on my way to a path finder
@knotty vine generally, the best way would either be consult wowhead or just take quests from what you previously turned quests into
there's little surefire way to know
Thanks @wary kestrel that’s what I’ve been doing currently. I think this path finder thing is going to take me a stupid amount of time
So long that it makes me believe im doing the wrong things
Do I need to have a horde character to unlock highmountain tauren or can I do it from an alliance?
you can do the unlock requirements as alliance, but you need a horde character to unlock them
@sharp lion
Thank you! @wary kestrel
Good idea
Am I going crazy, or am I remembering a quest in some area where you have a little baby murloc companion that you take around with you to do things? I can't find anything about it but I really wanna start that quest
How do I get from Tanaan jungle from Orgrimmar? Trying to do Azeroths last stand but have no idea how to get there. The videos on YouTube show people taking portals that aren’t yet available to me.
stupid question but how do i know when my stuff is sold at the auction house? I just put a lot of things in the ah and how will i get the golds? 🤔
auctions tab tells you how your sales are doing, either waiting for potential buyers or displays have they been sold or not, and the time stil left on your auctions
can someone help me with something that is not working im lvl 110 and i have bought bfa but how do i get the heart od azeroth?
i mean lvl 111
mailbox oh
can someone help me with something that is not working im lvl 110 and i have bought bfa but how do i get the heart of azeroth?
you do the main story
?
you just do the quests given to you dude
but i dont have it i abandont it but it was a mistake what do i do now
potentially?
Hey guys, was I unlucky with bad tanks or holy pal is weak during leveling?
I use all of my abilities, but when tanks pull whole rooms of mobs I just cant keep their health high and eventually run out of mana = tank dies and everybody dies too
Sounds like the tank needs to reel it the fuck back
Welp, now I get it, I thought there was something NOT OK when our tank pulled 2 BOSSES + trash mobs and they killed our whole group, but didnt pay any attention to it and just supposed that my healing was not good enough
Hello
Could someone explain party sync and mailing items to alts to me please ??
Also when I’m dreanor can I go back to ogrammar to sell out my inventory and get back to the quest ?
I’m a level 94 mage right now
You should be able to find lots of vendors in Draenor, you don't need to go back to Org
Party sync brings someone down to your level and current quest progress. You can mail alts items only if they are same faction and realm - exclusions to this rule are for Bound to Account items only.
So if an item is soul bound I can still send it to my apt and use it ?
Oh so an item that has leech is pointless for me as a mage
I don’t even know how to mail.
I mean, everyone can use leech
I only know how to read the auction house mail lol
It may not be a priority but it's a tertiary stat so it's nbd for whoever to have it
it's like a perk
Oh. Thanks for the information.
I’m wondering whether to make a demon hunter alt now or get to 110 first. Since I don’t have bfa yet
And can I use party sync with a lower level person and still gain experience?
Yes
Also I’m in the middle of the initial storyline for dreanor can’t find any vendors
So is it possible to just teleport and get back after selling stuff ?
I got a warning saying I won’t be able to return for a while
What quest are you on for it
I just defeated the black rock minions
@sterile acorn If two bosses have separate entries in the dungeon journal (that is, they are not grouped together) then they are definitely not supposed to be fought together. If you aren't out of combat or almost out of combat before pulling a boss, then it's an error of the person who pulled the boss (in this case the tank).
The Iron Horde orcs are near the end of the scenario, but there should still be an NPC around to sell to
It sucks to not be able to fly in dreanor though
Will search for a vendor
Thanks a ton for all the help @old zinc
Just 1 more question. Whether to start an alt as a demon hunter now ? Or wait till my mage is 110?
That's up to you. They'll be getting out of their starting area at around 104-106
And they start at dreanor ?
No, they have their own special starting zone.
Oh okay. Im sorry for so many questions. Still trying to understand the game
No worries, we're here to help when we can
Thanks again
I wonder whether there is anyone on the doom hammer server that I can befriend who can be my mentor so to say
I knew someone on Doomhammer
I wouldn't want him as a mentor, though, he was a backstabbing little shit
Damn
I did find a guild but I think my timings don’t match
Also I play on a MacBook for my push to talk for specific group is not working for some reason
Hi everyone, im a 95 warlock, started playing again after 7-8 years, and my professions are mining and herbs, thing is mining makes me alot of money even still but i feel like herbs is subpar, am i wrong? Should i change it for something else? It was maxed in cata so around 450? somethinglike that
There are not many things for which Draenor herbs are useful. Don't think too much about the value of professions before you are in the current content.
🤔 make sense yeah
well i was mining ghost iron ore and it makes real good money 🤷♀️ but draenor's ore are sheit haha
yo
quick question(again) if my girlfriend makes a night elf, and i make a gnome, can i just walk to her starting zone and do her quests with her at level one? 🤔
Yeah, it'll just take you a hot minute to get over there
Took a break from WoW, but now I'm trying to get back into it. I left as a noob and I'm back as a noob. Anyone know of any good race/class combos I should try? Free to play, I've done a Blood Elf Hunter and a Tauren Paladin
Hey everyone. I moved from NA to EU and I am thinking of coming back to WoW. I know the licenses from each location are different.
Since I only have a Starter Edition in EU, would buying an EU BfA license (from one of those key sale online stores) grant me game time since I would be technically a new suscriber here? Or would I need to buy game time separately?
@fast kite while its tempting to use 3rd part key sellers i advise you dont, lots of them like g2a often use stolen credit cards/other fraud and if somehting you bought was linked to something like that, it's you who'd get perma banned from wow
you need to have a subscription as well as buying bfa
@white pagoda Just like...Goblin Hunter. A race and a class you enjoy using in combination
while cliche I love draenei paladin, troll shaman, and undead as any caster, especially priests
If it's meta, that's even better
racials mean close to nothing in retail wow and even then they depend on what you're doing
like goblins arent special in pvp but their rocket jump is nice for immobile classes in raiding/dungeons
the 100% exp bonus in until may 18th?
it's been extended until the shadowhands prepatch, which is gonna be in a long time
@foggy flame what races do you like
Hi, I am at the [Build Your Barracks] quest and I need to have a blueprint to build my barracks. When I learned the barracks and it was using the item i think something went wrong because I disconnected (I had to go to the store). The blueprint for the Barracks doesn't appear anywhere in my inventory and when i try to build the barracks in the architect table it shows that the barracks are gray and i can't drag them onto the large plot. I also don't see them on the floor anymore because that's the place where I had to pickup the blueprints to even start the quest.
If you like Tauren I think warrior and Druid is pretty good fit
@spice quest have you tried abandoning the quest and starting it again?
yes, did not work 😦
no problem, I created a ticket. Let's hope they can resolve my thingy fast cause I'll be out of town monday and can't play for another 2 weeks 😢
Back, problem got fixed. Idk how but i afk'd for about 30 mins, clicked on the architect table again and was able to drag it to te plot.
hi, so i went to the person for allied races for highmountain tauren and the checks marks were green so i went to thunderbluff and and back to highmountain because im exalted on another server, it wont let me make a highmountain tauren and im not sure why
You have to do the recruitment quest from the Embassy on a level 110 Horde character first
^
yeah i was there and it had me go to thunderbluff after i learn about races then i did a quest then it had me go back to highmountain after i finished in thunderbluff
so i'll go back when i finish up some stuff , thank you
so what does a returning wow player need to do to get up to speed for shadowlands
There’s a returning player guide on Wowhead to cover all that!
It’s a long copy paste otherwise 😉
ok there's this and thats when i went to thunderbluff did a quest there, and then went back to highmountain to complete a quest(im exalted on a different server but honored with this character but it's still checked here)
sorry, im not the best at WoW so a lot confuses me
Guys, quest in Nazmir which is automatically accepted is not showing for me? Name of the quest: "Purge the infection"
anyone can help please? 🙂
Try opening your quest log and tracking the quest. If it doesn't show up, see if the NPC still has it or do /reload.
Ty, will try it out
is blood dk only good in bfa content
i have 9 horde characters at 120 but i want to play alliance with friends as a void elf... so what's better? 1) paying for a faction change, 2) leveling a new char from 1, or 3) buying the shadowlands bundle and boosting a char to 120
Hey guys. (Boosted Level 120 Fire Mage) (Very bad choice by me.) I'm curious about how i can set my action bar up to be the most noob friendly. any pictures someone could post would be extremely helpful
@rigid pike ..... Uff..
i know D:
I don't think there's no one that can help you, you'll be overwhelmed by the amount of abilities
damn :\
You can try to see like a fire mage doing a dungeon on youtube
or a raid
And see what they're using on their ability bars
But some abilities are very situational and if you don't know what they do you'll never be able to use the fire mage in its total form, thats why you should always level up one character atleast to lvl 120 before you do a boost
Or atleast 60-70
The desired boost class
I'm at lvl 90, leveled by myself and I have no idea what to do with half of the abilities and I've been learning them all one by one once I get them
what class are you?
https://gyazo.com/cb6a4cdeca0c63a77e38e6b4928334b8 also can anyone tell me what this armor is? i can't find it anywhere on google.
It's the Eternal Traveler's set from buying the epic Shadowlands edition
I need to go do more of that tedious ass farming quests so i can unlock it
you have to unlock it? it doesn't come with the edition?
You get the privledge of doing a special quest to get it
ah thanks
can it be done at any level?
i'm making a new character since i fudged up and boosted a fire mage without knowing what im doing
I'm not certain on that one but I think it's cap
Get the privilege lmao
It's the truth
@rigid pike you need to be lvl 120 to do the quest
Summon the mount you got with the edition, click the orb behind it and an npc will appear and give you the quest
You can also get it via someone else's mount, but you have to have at least base preorder of SL to do it
You'd also need another mount to turn it in again
what lvl can u get ur first mount on?
20
Go to your major city hub and they should be right next to the mount trainer.
The flight path.
k thanks
So I think I might be really stupid. I died during the || kill jakra zet quest || and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get back
Hey, I am a new Wow player and was wondering which version is better classic or retail
Ive been grinding on retail but I am very interested in classic
Am I the only one that can't do the healing of shen-zin su quest?
How can I block person in game forever? She constantly creating new profiles on different realms and talking not pleasant things to me! I do block every new char she creates but she creates them like crazy!!! I don’t want to have such fans
report
can you block them on battle net?
are they whispering you in game? Or battle.net
if you can block them on battle net try that
^
Tried that but she still somehow finds me😅
She probably has or created a lot of emails and then she’s making new accounts
did they just start or is this a reoccuring thing
It’s been going on for 2 days now
if they keep making accounts idk what to tell you then, maybe take some time off and see if they go away
Alright. It’s especially annoying when you concentrate in raid etc and get no good things from her. Otherwise I easily can ignore
if they're whispering you in game, you can turn off whispers in chat setting
np, hopefully blizzard steps in
quick question if i already did the doungen on mythic and now i have a +2 key i cant re do it ?
put the key in the stand?
ok classic and retail are they the same?
I would love the option to block only certain whispers as sometimes I get them from friends etc
but i already did the same doungen mythic
which one will you prefer
Has anyone completed the healing of shen-zin su Quest? I can't do it
retail imo
and how can you not do it
you keep the healers alive from the attacking enemies
walk out, right clikc your portrait, and click reset instance
I cant do it as a mage I can't even keep one alive
idk what to tell you then Aa. Its all about protecting npcs and saving more from debris
Yh it's really hard as a starting mission as I am quite new to game too
its not really a starting mission, youre at the end of the zone
what mage spec are you
I heard if you stay afk in the healing of shen-zin su quest for long enough it completes I doubt that is true but I think I need to be a higher level. I can't do dungeons because I need to do the quest to pick a faction
I'm Arcane
20
huh, well then
I must be really bad or doing something wrong
are you going around and freeing healers? And killing the adds attacking the ones healing?
maybe just use arcane missiles to attack rather than arcane blast
That's what I use
oof idk what to tell you then
I think I should try again tomorrow and hope someone is on to help me
Is being a panda that important? You could always reroll to another race
getting to level 20 takes like no time at all rn
I wanted a panda as I heard you can get xp when you're afk, plus I like the panda race.
uhh that xp thing isnt for pandas
going into an inn gives you rested xp, which is double xp
and the timer on it builds up while offline
oh not sure why I saw that somewhere
thats not race specific
I have a level 28 mage that isnt a panda but I wanted a panda as my main
you could always race change
once you get to a higher level that is, since race changing at such a low level isnt really worth it
I might how do you do that though?
in game store
I would rather not have to spend money on changing my race but I might have to make a new character
While I have been standing still I have gotten to 3 of 12 healers active
Someone is here helping me
I did it omg
noice!
Does anyone know why the forge of souls dungeon isnt on the dungeon group finder i need to get it done for the quest from jaina but i cant do it solo
Should I start plaing?
@rough rose you need to be more specific about that
^
im new
and i need help
that is what i meant
but i think i understand what to do now
you basiclaly just repeated yourself
i just didnt know what character was the easiest to use for a noob
i know jhock that was the entire point
well first off, race and class combos make little difference, so pick whatever looks cool
second off, for beginner, hunters, warrior, and mage are probably the easier classes to start with
wha?
why?
no idea
Goblins are alright
every discord i go into they start saying LUL
it might of also been because i as in an alliance discord..
???
Okay cash, ill explain this to you in a pretty straight forward manner. Since you are starting the game and you are completely new it really doesnt matter what class or race cobination you pick, those are only for like people with aspargos syndrom who think they are as good as top 3 guilds in the world. The only thing I strongly advice you to do is picking a proper realm. which means check which realm has ALOT of Horde/Alliance (Depending on the faction you want to play) and play there. Because more players in your faction = more guilds = more oppertunities.
After selecting yourself a realm, as I said before go with whatever race or class you want. I advice newbies to play a class that can do a role other than dps unless they really like a dps only class. cause in long run its really beneficial to be able to heal or tank, it will just make your life easier and you will also be introduced to the other roles and you will know how to deal or cooprate with them.
now you have your level 1 character and just explore the game. Remember to try everything while leveling. Questing, dungeons, battlegrounds and... Although your main way for leveling up will be through quests its always a good idea to try those as well.
For class guide check wowhead or icy-veins, although I encourage you to try all 3 specs
ok
