you are

tight elbow
#

Ashes of Creation devs were originally going to allow it, but have since 180'd their thoughts and have stated it will not be allowed.

severe surge
#

I got a core fire imp for 89 silver :D

hexed crane
#

no one fucking cares about that scam mmo

tight elbow
#

Nice

#

no one fucking cares about that scam mmo
@hexed crane Wasn't talking to you ❤️

hexed crane
#

you were?

pallid fulcrum
#

I'd say vindictive towards multi-boxers, yeah. They're doing something that damages the integrity of the game systems.

hexed crane
short frost
#

No idea why people are so mad about it. It's good money and great support for the game.

tight elbow
#

No, I was talking to Elegy

hexed crane
#

hmm

short frost
#

Lol ...

pallid fulcrum
#

WoW is basically a simulation of a real economy, so when you have someone who subverts the normal methods of contributing to that economy and thus flooding it with materials and gold, you get massive inflation and price gouging.

severe surge
#

PrincePepe I've learned more from this channel in the past 20 min than my friends who regularly play WoW ty helpful ppl

short frost
#

If it was a great simulation of an economy it wouldn't have an inflation rate of 10000% or more over 10 years.

frigid raven
#

Does this mean the pre patch is this week ?

#

My friend sent me that

pallid fulcrum
#

Well we don't have people who can just magically print money IRL.

tight elbow
#

Does this mean the pre patch is this week ?
@frigid raven No

pallid fulcrum
#

Well, we do, but they don't do it because it devalues the money.

short frost
#

It means that there is an update coming.

frigid raven
#

It says 24gb

#

On patch day

short frost
#

Sounds like a big patch

#

xD

pallid fulcrum
#

Though tbh, on one hand I get why multiboxers should be okay. You pay more so you get more, that's one thing, but I do think their effect is detrimental enough to the game economy that it shouldn't be allowed.

severe surge
#

It would be cool if you could see these items in the auction house

pallid fulcrum
#

Which items?

severe surge
#

The ones listed

short frost
#

I only ever encountered muktiboxers in the wild farming ores and herbs and as fun activities in pvp.

#

So nothing too bad imo

#

Like people building whole raids to kill a 40 box boomkin for example. That was good fun.

pallid fulcrum
#

farming ores and herbs

This is the problem with multiboxers. They flood the AH with endless mats which in turn inflates their price, like Black Lotus from Classic which was inflated to twice their price in an already gold-thirsty game.

hexed crane
#

Deflates their price

#

in retail it causes an deflation

short frost
#

I'm confused about economics in wow once more...

hexed crane
#

its not that confusing

#

also its not THAT bad

#

they would still endlessly farm stuff

#

it'd just slow them down to stop them from multiboxing

pallid fulcrum
#

That puts them on the same playing field as others. One person farming versus 10-40 people farming is a vast difference.

short frost
#

See I actively counter that problem by vendoring all mats I gather instead of putting them on AH...

pallid fulcrum
#

Good lord I'm tired.

short frost
#

I'm a good boy fighting inflation.

hexed crane
#

well actually

#

since any player can "technically" pay for multiple accounts using gold

#

in theory

#

it is fair

#

its all about initial capital investment

severe surge
#

I could buy a tackle box for 150 gold :0

The fishing
The slots
The temptation
THE URGE

#

God dammit I dont even know what I'm doing and I love this game

mystic lagoon
#

Is there really that much to be done to prepare for shadowlands other than boosting a char to 120?

#

just wasnt sure how much would be a 'waste'

spare oar
#

depends on if you want any of the stuff thats going to be gone ¯_(ツ)_/¯

mystic lagoon
#

assume that I do not, only just looking to be in the best place i can be to level when it goes live

spare oar
#

ogrimmar?

#

realistically, youll at least want to do the prepatch stuff

#

oh'

#

or stormwind

#

faction-dependent

#

but yeah

#

have a 120

#

park in your capital city

#

wait

mystic lagoon
#

well I just want to have a 120 ready to go for shadowlands and i just boosted one. Not sure if there is much more I can do to wait.

#

other than wait*

tight elbow
#

Is there really that much to be done to prepare for shadowlands other than boosting a char to 120?
If you are new to WoW, please don't boost. You are doing yourself a massive disfavor.

mystic lagoon
#

Im not new to wow.

#

I leveled to 120 when BFA first launched but quit before any real end game raiding

spare oar
#

youre fine

#

just wait

#

park your toon in your old faction capital

#

wait a week or two

#

do prepatch

#

do shadowlands

short frost
#

Listen to peach

mystic lagoon
#

Done ty

#

lastly, for professions. On one character i have Kul Tiran Leatherworking and its 141/175 but my newest character i did mining/engineering and it starts at 0/300

#

just a little confusing

#

Thats another thing id like to have ready for SL, but havent messed with in a very long time

severe surge
#

Where do I go to buy heirlooms?

short frost
#

Ironforge museum.

mystic lagoon
#

Do i need to worry about professions at all with the new system or just wait till SL goes live as well

severe surge
#

Even if I'm horde?

pallid fulcrum
#

don'

#

t worry about the new profs

#

none of the changes will affect you just leveling them

mystic lagoon
#

Well i haven't leveled them at all yet

#

But with the current system it looks like that won't matter i think?

pallid fulcrum
#

Nah, you'll be fine. It's mostly adding QoL additions to professions.

#

And also making them more relevant.

tight elbow
#

Its a soft revamp. We'll likely be getting an indepth revamp to profs in 10.0

cunning depot
#

does anyone know how to get highmountain tauren? im trying to find reliable sources on how to get it on yt but i see different ways of getting it

pallid fulcrum
#

Get exalted with the Highmountain Rep in the Legion zones then do they questline they give you.

#

World quests and emissaries will get you the rep for them. On occasion rep tokens from your Order Hall Table.

cunning depot
#

how do you get to highmountain or legion areas?

#

from ogrimmar

pallid fulcrum
#

There should be a portal to Azsuna in the Broken Isles in your portal sanctum, and Highmountain is the northmost region in that continent.

#

If you have the pink dalaran hearthstone, that'll get you there too.

cunning depot
#

how do you get a dalaran hearthstone?

pallid fulcrum
#

Should be an NPC or the Command Board in Orgrimmar that starts the Legion questline. The quest is called The Legion Returns.

cunning depot
#

ok thank you

signal pelican
#

dumb question, but i just killed The Soulbinder world boss, but I still see a purple "!" on my map, I thought this was only lootable once a week and that ! should go away so I know i've done the quest already until next weeks reset...?

short frost
#

Sometimes it doesn't register the kill.

frigid raven
#

Where do I get the honorbound epic cache

short frost
#

One you fill the excess reputation bar.

signal pelican
#

@short frost ok cool thanks!

hollow maple
#

i just asked in #retail-wow and got an answer from the website. i don't want to spam that channel with nonsense so i figure i'd ask again here but with more detail. is there a calendar for when Mrrl sells the mount or is it just "2-4 days/mo"?

#

sorry if this is a frequently asked question. but i've done all the requisite trading for this and was just wondering if i had to check every day or if i could just come back on X day of Y month

cerulean iron
#

Hey. So I refered a friend to wow and he is having trouble at the authentication part. It won't let him authenticate his email. He is stuck at 36%. He's downloaded the battlnet desktop. Anyone had this before?

frigid raven
#

So does anybody know ?

#

This the 2nd time in a row zuldazar was under attack by the alliance I did all the missions and it said it give me a purple honorbound chest but I didn’t get anything I checked the emissary chick

#

Nothing

#

Oh crap I gotta take a bird somewhere lol

dim sigil
#

Yep you do all three and then a final quest pops up to destroy an airship

vague pivot
#

how do you get a dalaran hearthstone?
@cunning depot If you skip all the intro stuff or somehow get to Dalaran without doing the quest that gives you a hearthstone, the innkeeper at the Legerdemain Lounge will give you a Dalaran Hearthstone.

#

Where do I go to buy heirlooms?
@severe surge
Guild vendor sells some, you can buy a lot of stuff to upgrade with special currency like timewalking coins, etc. Almost every event vendor sells heirloom related items. However, I hear heirlooms are going away with Shadowlands.

dim sigil
#

I thought heirlooms were still obtainable, just with a set bonus rather than exp boost?

pallid fulcrum
#

Correct

#

They're not going anywhere, just the exp boost is being replaced

ruby plover
#

guys pre pach is coming ?

dim sigil
#

Not announced yet but you can now pre download it on the launcher

#

Is there any way to transfer my old WoW email account to a new email account? the old one had access to Legion

#

can someone help me with this conundrum, if I do mythic tos on my lockout, and join a fresh one do i still get loot, and if i dont can i still trade with people who do?

cobalt flint
#

@wet flame I did that in the past. There should be an option for that somewhere in the account settings on the website.

heady lantern
#

id like to pick up the Kor'Kron Annihilator mount but it requires me to have exalted Guild reputation in Orgrimmar

#

how do i do that quick

dim sigil
#

You have to complete quests while in a guild to increase guild reputation

#

If you can get it, the guild tabards increase the reputation that you earn

#

I think you can run dungeons too

heady lantern
#

as a lonely player i dont know much about those guilds i can join xd

cobalt flint
#

Use the guild finder. The easiest way is to just join a guild that accepts anyone.

heady lantern
#

i can just join a random guild and do quests and it will increase?

dim sigil
#

Pretty much! But if you switch guilds it will reset to 0

#

So if you plan on joining a guild it would be better to find one that you like 🙂

cobalt flint
#

I can't remember if it's to true 0, or just to the one reputation below current. But getting to max rep, buying all rewards, and then switching shouldn't be too much of an issue.

dim sigil
#

Yeah you'll easily get the rep back. Just don't leave halfway through your grind haha

strong warren
#

hi anyone knows why i cant pick all languages in lfg?

#

since english and portugese is grey and not takeable

short frost
#

maybe you play on a english UI and on a portuguese realm?

strong warren
#

english ui - so its automatically on u mean?

short frost
#

yes

#

I think it's the same for me with German UI and english realm

Hey guys. I have never played wow in my life, but I plan to start in shadowlands. I watched this two hour long guide on youtube and I think I want to play fury warrior. Do you guys know if they're input heavy? Again, I'm a complete noob as I haven't even played a single second yet

dim sigil
#

Hey @pallid fulcrum warrior shouldn't be too bad input wise, but they are still tuning numbers for shadowlands so rotations etc are still likely to change.
Keep an eye on YouTube as there will likely be some warrior guides as we approach the launch date

#

When you get into the game you could also play around with the "class trial" feature that let's you try out classes at high levels 🙂

pallid fulcrum
#

@dim sigil nice! I saw that in the guide actually and I've been watching videos by kelade. I just want to make sure I have a decent set up as I've never used macros or anything before. I mostly play fighting games which are nothing like mmos at all

iron fable
#

where can i get a decent bow?

#

below lv 30

#

im doing lv 25 dungeons with a lv 8 bow

#

because i can't drop it

real sigil
#

dungeons or quests; you could try the auction house but it'd probably cost a lot of gold

iron fable
#

do i get higher level gear depending on my avarage gear level?

real sigil
#

its dependant on actual level

#

so at level 25, you'll get level 25 gear

cobalt flint
#

(unless we are talking about world quests at max level)

iron fable
#

how can i abandon my secondary pet?

real sigil
#

Summon it, right click the portrait and then abandon

iron fable
#

i can't with the secondary

real sigil
#

summon it as your primary, i should say

iron fable
#

how can i do that

#

i have just this

real sigil
#

you might have to go into the stables for it if you're using the talent

#

@tight elbow should know

iron fable
#

@tight elbow we are summoning you dark lord

I has been summoned

iron fable
#

how do i abandon my secondary pet as hunter?

#

i cant do it, just on my primary

tight elbow
#

You have to pull that pet out of your stables, summon it as your primary, right click and click abandon

iron fable
#

ye but how do i summon just that one

#

i use the whistle

#

and even if i click on the secondary one i summon both

#

you need to find a stable master

iron fable

nvm i did it

just clicked on that one on the whistle

@minor crest probably best to ask in the priest discord

misty dome
#

Hello guys i have never played wow or anything like it, i did a 1 month sub but im unsure what to play, classic or wow. I have almost no clue what im doing besides general gaming experience. Id realy like to get into the game and be able to return to and still have fun

short frost
#

retail is for new players

minor crest
#

@tight elbow I don't think so, this is a general macro question not specific to priests. It's specific to macros in general. I guarantee I would have a better chance to get an answer here than a niche discord

lean beacon
#

So i have been thinking, the allied races are gonna be obtainable without getting exalted.
But...The Nightbourne questline forces you to be exalted to continu with the story right?
Is this gonna stay like this or are they gonna remove the quests that require you to be exalted etc?

real sigil
#

i'm fairly sure they got rid of that requirement in the questline

short frost
#

or maybe they just forgot about that fact and will shrug it off.

dim sigil
#

Anyone here good with macros and can help me?
@minor crest if you post what you are trying to do, I'm sure someone can help 🙂

pallid fulcrum
#

Hello here I would like to finish the achievement the throne of zuldazar except that I have no quests available in zuldazar or dazar'alor I searched on wowhead for all the quests but I have no quests that appear on this area my character is Yavana knowing that for the achievement I have already succeeded. (Portents and Prophecies, Port of Zandalar) otherwise the rest impossible to complete

pallid fulcrum
#

If someone could help me, it would be nice

minor crest
#

The first part is firing however but I can’t get the harm mouseovers to fire, is something wrong with my syntax?

/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead,nochanneling,mod:shift] Power Word: Shield; [@mouseover,harm,nodead,nochanneling,mod:alt] Shadow Word: Pain

Ideally, I’d like to add one more conditional but not sure how having a mouseovertarget before the mouseover would work out in terms of true and false, I know that blizzard made it so mouseover doesn’t work like a regular true and false check as @target and @targettarget work.

/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead,nochanneling,mod:shift] Power Word: Shield; [@mouseovertarget,harm,nodead,nochanneling,mod:alt][@mouseover,harm,nodead,nochanneling,mod:alt] Shadow Word: Pain

@minor crest

cobalt flint
#

@pallid fulcrum Show us the screenshot of your maps of Zuldazar and Dazar'alor. Maybe there is a quest available that you missed (marked with an exclamation mark on the map).

true ingot
#

it should cast Power Word shield on mouseover help, Shadow Word: Pain on Mouseover Harm, and if no mouseover, on target, on none of the above, yourself

cobalt flint
#

@pallid fulcrum There are also over 150 characters called Yavana in the world.

prisma schooner
#

why cant i buy a wow token from blizzard shop?

true ingot
#

are you doing it in game

#

like it tells you to do?

prisma schooner
#

the screen turnes blue and a black box pops up for a few seconds then it say like processing pruchase please check back later

#

yea

true ingot
#

then try again later

#

it does have some random downtimes

prisma schooner
#

bro i have been trying for like three days no cap

true ingot
#

most I can suggest trying is closing out of wow and battle.net and relogging or submitting a report

cobalt flint
#

@prisma schooner At this point you should probably write a support ticket.

prisma schooner
#

how

true ingot
#

Also to check. Do you have a CC attached or a balance to purchase it with?

prisma schooner
#

cc?

true ingot
#

and your playing on the region matching your blizzard account?

#

credit card

#

form of payment dealy

prisma schooner
#

yea i have balance to buy it

#

yea i am

#

yea i bought the 80 euro thingy and used master card

cobalt flint
#

You go to Blizzard website and click "Support" in the top right corner

prisma schooner
#

yea then

true ingot
#

clicking around the support

#

it's telling me to reset your wow interface

#

possibly relaunch game without any addons loaded to till purchase is done

#

thats all I got. Good Luck!

prisma schooner
#

I DONT HAVE ADDONS

#

sry caps

#

still doesnt work

#

how do i write i support ticket?

cobalt flint
#

You can also consider calling your bank to make sure they are not trying to block that transaction.

prisma schooner
#

ohh i think i figured it out

#

but vengir the screen turnes blue and a black box pops up for a few seconds then it say like processing pruchase please check back later

frigid raven
#

Guys will there be 2 pre patches ?

#

I read that somewhere

cobalt flint
#

One prepatch and one expansion release patch, AFAIK. It used to be like that in the past. In more recent expansions we just had the prepatch and then Blizzard "flipped the switch" on their server on expansion release, but this time they needed more time to polish everything. @frigid raven

#

@pallid fulcrum It's never too late to join. Yes, the game has been constantly expanding in content for the last 16 years, but most of it can be skipped.

pallid fulcrum
#

You'll be stepping into the prepatch for the new expansion soon so you'll more or less be starting fresh with Shadowlands. You picked the perfect time to join.

frigid raven
#

Ur gonna have fun r17

#

Thx vengir

#

Druids, monks, demon hunters, warriors, death knights, and paladins can all be tanks.

frigid raven
#

Guys did saurfang die on purpose

real sigil
#

kinda yeah

frigid raven
#

Because those rogues that came after him fought quick and agile just like sylvannas

#

And he bodied one

#

In the cinematic where he gets thrall

real sigil
#

Sylvanas is also doped up on old god juice and is kinda.. unstoppable, at this point

frigid raven
#

Oh shxt

real sigil
#

But the fight between the two was more meant to goad Sylvanas into doing something dumb (like denounce the horde and say "fuck you") and help reveal her plans

#

and Saurfang realised this and said "aight, instead of millions dying, lets just have one do it instead"

frigid raven
#

Oooog so he technically did win the 1v1 then huh

real sigil
#

pretty much, yeah

frigid raven
#

Daaaaamn I’m still messed up that he died

#

It only happened yesterday for me and it was a shock

real sigil
#

Yeah it sucks. He was built up well in this expac; but he made Sylvanas look dumb and kinda weak before he died so.. it went well. All things considered.

frigid raven
#

Yea I guess is he dead tho ? I read online that people said he’s not dead even after the funeral

minor crest
#

@true ingot Thank you I'm gonna test that right now

frigid raven
#

Or is it that people can’t let go

#

Lol

real sigil
#

He's definitely dead, yeah

frigid raven
#

Damn fkd up

real sigil
#

I.. don't even think there was a body left to bury, but I can't recall

frigid raven
#

Yea they had a big funeral

#

Anduin and jaina paid respects

#

But left

real sigil
#

Oh, there was a body yeah, thats me misremembering

minor crest
#

@true ingot I noticed you took out the nochanneling part, is that necessary or can I keep it in? It's important because I don't want to clip shadow mend or penance (channeling spells)

real sigil
#

Definitely dead. ||Might see him in SL but who knows||

frigid raven
#

Damn why did blizzard even make sylvannas bad

#

She was turning into one of my fav characters

#

Especially when she started to help the alliance king in legion

real sigil
#

It be that way, sadly

minor crest
#

This would be ideal, is there any syntax errors here?
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead,nochanneling,mod:shift][@mouseovertarget,help,nodead,nochanneling,mod:shift]Power Word: Shield; [@mouseover,harm,nodead,nochanneling,mod:alt][@mouseovertarget,harm,nodead,nochanneling,mod:alt][harm,nodead,nochanneling,mod:alt] Shadow Word: Pain [help,nodead,nochanneling,mod:shift] Power Word: Shield; [@player,mod:shift] Power Word: Shield

#

Right away I'm getting issues with the @mortal oracle,mod:shift says invalid target

#

actually no sorry I spoke too soon, that was because of weakened soul

#

It's not working to fire off at an enemy when holding alt, and for some reason when I don't hold anything at all it's still shielding me when its supposed to do nothing

#

Wow I think I got it, it was missing a ; at one of the Shadow Word: Pain

#

is /cast and /use interchangeable?

neon cedar
#

i believe so

#

you can /use items but that might work with /cast too

prisma schooner
#

how do i get vicious war trike?

viscid nimbus
#

You need to get the PvP mount for a given season by doing Rated Arenas or Rated BGs at a rating of 1400 or higher.
Then when that bar is filled up, you can start progress towards earning a Vicious Saddle, which lets you buy Vicious mounts from previous expansions, such as the Vicious War Trike.

#

Just for reference, 2v2s give about 0.4% of the total needed for PvP mount per win above 1400 Rating.
3v3s give 1.25%
And Rated BGs give 2.5%

#

And you need to fill that bar twice.

#

Considering the Season is going to end soon, it's unlikely you'll be able to farm up enough points to do this before it ends.
So the best bet is waiting for the first Shadowlands season is going to start and give it a big ol' try then.

#

Hey guys, how would you recommend going through the lore/plot stuff right now as a new player? I hit 60 in just a few days and am afraid I'm going to be overleveled for a lot of the original content. Should I just pick an expac and go through the content, and then do vanilla content on another char?
I could level lock but that seems counter-intuitive

real sigil
#

Vanilla content doesn't exist, you technically start in Cataclysm; Nobbel87 has a bunch of lore videos on youtube you can binge through if you want

cerulean crest
#

Sure ye, that's what I meant

real sigil
#

You're better off just picking where you want to go though, you could always go back but wether the drive is there after levelling is another thing. Burning Crusade (outland) would be next, then Wrath of the Lich King (Northrend)

cerulean crest
#

Yeah, that's what I figured. I just didn't want to blast through BC up to level 80 and be overleveled for LK, but I guess I could do it with another char later

real sigil
#

You'll more than likely hit 80 a lot faster than you think, probably in the 2nd / 3rd zone if you do everything

#

The xp buff kinda.. fucks with that a bit. The new levelling system coming in the pre-patch should solve that issue though

cerulean crest
#

Yeah, I hardly got through 3-4 original zones and hit 60 already

real sigil
#

Yup. Not much to do about that just yet. The pre-patch will let you pick an expansion and level wholly through that, which.. helps, but it's not what you want particularly.

does anyone know how to get to zandalar? im trying to do island expeditions

real sigil
#

Unless you want to level like.. 8 characters.

#

Just take the portal from orgrimmar @cunning depot

cunning depot
#

where

#

is the portal my good sir

real sigil
#

in the portal room; head to the main gates of Org and turn left

cunning depot
#

ok tank you

cerulean crest
#

Yeah, that sounds like it locks you out of the rest of the expansions for a given char. I'll have to do some more research, thanks for the help

real sigil
#

no worries

cunning depot
#

wait im trying to go through the portal and its not letting me

#

im noticing that when i hover over the other portals, theres a gear showing up but not for the zandalar portal

#

@real sigil

real sigil
#

do you have BFA?

cunning depot
#

yeah

real sigil
#

have you done the intro to zandalar?

cunning depot
#

no

real sigil
#

might be an idea

cunning depot
#

where do i start it?

real sigil
#

are you 110?

cunning depot
#

yeah

real sigil
#

follow the war campaign in your quest log

cunning depot
#

ok

#

thank you

#

what ilvl do i need for mythic dazar'alor?

#

ok, i'm good then. thx

#

Hey, I don’t know if this is the correct place, but I do need help. I’m working on achievements for Ulduar and I just need a second person for the “Take out those turrets” achievement

#

It should take like 5-10 minutes if anyone wants to help me

real sigil
#

group finder channels below, this is for technical support and not in-game

proper turtle
#

Ok, thank you. I don’t really know how discord works

left wedge
#

quick question, say i make a new bnet account before pre patch. am I still forced into exiles reach and bfa if I make the 1st character after pre patch or is that restriction only for accounts that are created after pre patch?

pallid fulcrum
#

Exile's Reach is a choice regardless of account status. You choose between Exile's Reach or the racial starting zone.

#

At character creation.

#

Pre-Patch will allow you to choose any expansion to do 10-50.

real sigil
#

unless you're a new account, which is the question he's asking

#

we don't know is the answer

#

we don't know what classifies the account as "new" or if it's a character specific thing or what

pallid fulcrum
#

What do you mean? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question.

real sigil
#

New players are forced into BFA, they don't get to choose an expansion once they reach 10

pallid fulcrum
#

Is that true? I've never heard of that until now.

#

Weird. Sorry for the confusion then.

real sigil
#

but there's no real clarification on what a "new" account is

#

so it's on blizz to do that

left wedge
#

@real sigil guess ill just have to wait and see, thanks

warped jungle
#

What is the most profitable profession

#

As human professions are even profitable

old zinc
#

Alchemy and Cooking because of raiders

floral egret
#

how do i get the money from the auction house?

real sigil
#

Mailbox

floral egret
#

does it take a bit? @real sigil

real sigil
#

think it takes an hour after it sold

floral egret
#

kk thank you

wheat tinsel
#

will BFA go free when the pre-patch releases?

real sigil
#

we dont know

pallid fulcrum
#

History suggests it'll be included in a Shadowlands purchase when the expansion itself launches, but we don't know for sure. It definitely won't be pre-patch either way though.

serene sedge
#

will people stil do BFA raids when SL is booming?

pallid fulcrum
#

Not likely initially, but give it some days/weeks and people will return to legacy content for easier mogs/mounts.

#

People have been farming Legion raids all of BfA.

obtuse anvil
#

Hey everyone I was trying to find a channel within this discord when it came to professions but I am not sure if there is one haha

I was wondering if there is anyone that can make vial of the sands? I have all the mats but i can only trade to realms: Uther and Runetotem

Or does anyone know a discord channel for this exact question?

hexed crane
#

Actually Elegy history suggests it would be prepatch

#

Legion was made included with the subscription at the start of the BFA prepatch

#

but that was 1 time

#

not enough to really set historical precedent

warped jungle
#

whens prepatch?

pallid fulcrum
#

Was it? I don't remember that but that's neat.

hexed crane
#

yes it was and uh

#

probably the 29th for prepatch

#

we dont have a set date yet

#

we just know 100% it cannot be sooner than the 29th

pallid fulcrum
#

29th seems most likely atm tbh. Announcement tomorrows means 13 days until prepatch which is inline with the two weeks.

#

er, 12

#

same as BfA

hexed crane
#

yes

pallid fulcrum
#

Wait this is bad

#

My dad's visiting for two days on the 29th and 30th pensivecowboy

warped jungle
#

@old zinc not to sound like an idiot but what makes those professions best?

hexed crane
#

just dont talk to them

pallid fulcrum
#

i have to, i never get to see him

hexed crane
#

because alchemy and cooking make consumable s

#

raiders buy tons of consumables

#

so its always profitable

old zinc
#

^
Buff food and stat pots/flasks can make insane gold

hexed crane
#

BUT

#

"new" consumables arecoming that other professions will make

#

but those 2 wolf mentioned are generally the best

#

for selling consumables

old zinc
#

Basically if it's useful for raiding and depletable it's gonna make you a lot of gold if you keep on top of it

hexed crane
#

yes

#

honestly imo most professions will do very very will soon

old zinc
#

Which is nice to hear tbh

hexed crane
#

some might be like godlike

#

looking at inscription, enchanting, alchemy

old zinc
#

_> Inscription?

hexed crane
#

but its all just uh speculation

#

yes inscription

#

maybe not as much

old zinc
#

You mean my favorite prof isn't being left in the dirt?

hexed crane
#

LUL

old zinc
#

It has so much fucking potential that they waste and everyone knows it

warped jungle
#

So like, i never went into doing professions at all are they that hard?

hexed crane
#

uh not really

#

they dont really require "skill"

old zinc
#

A little tedious sometimes but not difficult

hexed crane
#

just grind really

warped jungle
#

i know that sandstone drake is expensive

#

is it probable/possible to just pump out those

old zinc
#

that's because you need Archaeology luck to get the recipe for it

hexed crane
#

obviously analyzing markets and supply/demand and other economic principles in wow for goldmaking requires skill

old zinc
#

Me, sad that Archaeology, my second fav profession, is being left in the dirt (for now)

warped jungle
#

yeah archaeology looks tedious to get the recipe

#

dont you need to do some like tvoldir stuff

knotty quartz
#

I got blade of northern kings and for some reason I cannot transmog my polearm to it. Is this supposed to happen and if so what did i do wrong?

#

it can also transmog to only two two-handed swords

real sigil
#

Can your class use two-handed swords?

hexed crane
#

what class?

warped jungle
#

lets say i get the sandstone drake recipe, are they that hard to make?

real sigil
#

yes

#

its why they're so expensive

warped jungle
#

what secondary profession should i do ontop of alchemy

real sigil
#

herbalism

warped jungle
#

to get my profession skill higher, i just have to make stuff correct?

hexed crane
#

make stuff that has a certain colour in the window

warped jungle
#

and are getting herb bags and stuff worth it?

hexed crane
#

eh not really

#

they are smaller than just getting regular bags

knotty quartz
#

@real sigil yea im unholy dk

hexed crane
#

oh I didnt explain the colours for crafting

#

so if an item is grey it gives no xp, red means it is too high level, green is it always gives xp, yellow is rng, orange is rng

frigid raven
#

Guys what’s the best paladin spec

mystic lagoon
#

Whats the fastest way i can gear up to do arenas?

regal gazelle
#

Anyone know why Wrathion isnt in my Chamber of Heart? Trying to turn in Lost Flight for the Uncorrupted Voidwing

frigid raven
#

No clue

#

Maybe u have a quest to do with him

#

Do u have your cape ?

#

He could be in that dungeon waiting for u on kalimdor

summer cairn
#

are the DK weapon enchants always better than the ones enchanting give?

pallid fulcrum
#

Best Paladin spec in terms of relative performance is Holy. Prot is a great and easy tank and Ret does a ton of damage, but lacks some group utility.

#

But the real answer is whichever you find most fun.

warped jungle
#

what are corrupted items

#

just started doing bfa

west stone
#

is bfa going free with prepatch or a bit later?

warped jungle
#

later probably

true ingot
#

as it sits now. No. As we have had no information giving us a definite about it. that said it's quite likely due to how leveling will work for new players (New Starter Zone > BFA)

#

..either that or new players HAVE to buy Sub and BFA to play...

swift timber
#

So I'm new to wow. I want to play arms warrior or fury warrior in shadowlands. I just want to play warrior. I'm probably gonna play it regardless, but Ive been watching videos and most day warrior is terrible in shadowlands. A few people are saying arms warrior is really powerful in pvp. Can anyone kind of clear that up for me?

true ingot
#

stuff is still changing so we really can't give you an awnser

#

Every Beta patch changes loads of stuff. Arms could be master one week according to changes, Destitute the next.

warped jungle
#

does anyone have any like information on how to get a garrison?

#

on a 120 boosted

true ingot
#

"To start the WoD story, go to Blasted Lands, find Khadgar outside the Dark Portal and take the quest “For Azeroth!” from him."

#

and don't leave at all till you have your garrison built and the hearthstone in hand

#

it's a pain to get back before then

swift timber
#

@true ingot dang it's that wonky rn? How far out will it stabilize?

true ingot
#

October 26th

#

this is nothing new for new expansions; even the first few quick patches changes stuff

#

Honest (but personal awnser) Just play what you want at quit worrying about the meta

swift timber
#

So at launch? I shouldn't worry about it until then right?

warped jungle
#

faark that sounds like apain to get

true ingot
#

@warped jungle not really?

#

Umm. let me find the npc to talk to in portal room

swift timber
#

I'm not worrying about it too much as I'm a new player, but I do like playing pvp games and I tend to take them very seriously. @true ingot

true ingot
#

In Stormwind, talk to Honor Hold Mage at the entrance to the Mage Tower. In Orgrimmar, talk to Thrallmar Mage by the Shattrath portal in the Portal room

#

it will bring you to a area just northeast of the portal itself

#

@swift timber yea..but everything is all over the place right off the bat. Trying to go "HEY THIS IS MOST POWERFUL" right now is just gonna kick ya in the pants.

#

even progression raiding guilds just gotta work around the changes

pearl bronze
#

Will the "SSD requirement" make it to where I cant boot WoW at all, or whats gonna happen to me?

swift timber
#

@true ingot yeah that's true. I'm not normally meta slave anyways. Usually get top rank playing trash. Wukong to challenger kind of deal. But people talk about these classes like they're unplayable lol. I guess a lot of over exaggeration combined with the game being tested in beta.

true ingot
#

SSD Requirement has been removed

pearl bronze
#

Oh yay

#

I'm too broke for that xD

true ingot
#

they are pretty cheap atm though.

#

probally be cheaper on black friday too

#

but yea I get ya

pearl bronze
#

0 dollars doesn't care if its 30% off or 99% off lel

dim sigil
#

Definitely worth getting in the future though. Makes such a difference

serene sedge
#

since bliz have removed azarite armor from mythic +...which means new players cant target loot BIS. How are new players suposed to get i475/480 azerite with specific traits .. without having to save 20k titan residuum for 2months??

warped jungle
#

can i send garrison rescources to other toons?

true ingot
#

nope

#

...least 95% sure of that...

warped jungle
#

Alright now im even more confused, I boosted a 120 a while back and its got heart of azeroth already, am i meant to be able to shift right click that>

cobalt flint
#

@warped jungle Is this your first character that got Heart of Azeroth?

warped jungle
#

I got it on another

#

At the start of expac and never played

cobalt flint
#

You might want to read those two https://www.wowhead.com/guides/heart-of-azeroth-overview https://www.wowhead.com/guides/azerite-armor-guide

You shift-right click on azerite armor, not the necklace.

warped jungle
#

ah okay i know i can do that

#

thought i could do it on the heart too

#

is corruption worth?

warped jungle
#

what the heck is this

true ingot
#

punchcards go in a specific trinket

#

and thats exactally what it sounds like. slowfall

#

minus the actual falling slow I think

warped jungle
#

is it very hard to get?

true ingot
#

I don't think so?

warped jungle
#

for someone who hasnt done any bfa

#

oh doesnt look that hard actually

vague pivot
#

If you fall from a height that would damage you, a parachute automatically deploys with that punch card. You can get a bunch of these cards from LFG Mechagon either Junkyard or Workshop

true ingot
#

not as long as they can beat the dead horse of WoW.

#

also Probally not either way cuz of a certain DOTA

cobalt flint
#

They would need to make Warcraft 4 first. And after what they did to Reforged, I'm not sure we even want that.

true ingot
#

they've have to push the story past Warcraft too..

#

so it won't happen till the mmo ends.

#

or it will be a AU story

real sigil
#

Sl timeskip idea leading into warcraft 4

warped jungle
#

is there a portal to mechagon that opens?>

prisma schooner
#

when i try to buy wow token from blizzard shop should it say buy now? cause for me it says how mcuh it costs

true ingot
#

I think the token interface is currently down

#

least thats what I was hearing last night

#

isn't at a computer she can bring it up on to look

prisma schooner
#

so i am not the only one who cant buy it?

vague pivot
#

Have you checked Blizzard forums. Probably a better resource than here

true ingot
#

OH right. that reminds me. I figured out one more thing you can try with it. Make sure your computer has all overlays off while playing wow. apparently that causes some issues. (Microsoft game bar especially)

prisma schooner
#

wait when i try to buy it it doesnt say buy now it only says 20 euro so hould i try adding 20 euro to my blizzard account and then try to buy it?

true ingot
#

I cannot say with any certainty for you there; sorry

prisma schooner
#

ok

true ingot
#

ok so I got some that may help you here. 1. If you do not have a form of payment attached; You can't buy a wow token straight off. 2. if you buy using a balance, it appears the balance has to be there first. Balance can take up to 3 days before it can be used. 3. If you bought balance already when you asked yesterday; you may need to wait till tomorrow (was it yesterday? I work overnights and get days mixed up)

prisma schooner
#

i have not bought balance

#

but should i do that then try?

true ingot
#

sounds like it according to the balance buying page on the Battle.net website

prisma schooner
#

or i mean should i try adding balance

#

ok

wary yew
#

I can check, one moment.

warped jungle
#

can i remove the corruption on my character

#

looks shit

real sigil
#

You can cleanse it, yes

warped jungle
#

is that worth?

#

paladin

#

prot

wary yew
#

@prisma schooner So i can buy tokens. If i click on the price, it brings me to the buyout where you can select your payment option.

real sigil
#

Not really, no

prisma schooner
#

wtf

#

when i click the price it brings up a black box and the screen turnes blue for a few sec then it says processing your order please check back later

wary yew
#

Uh did you buy one already and they are waiting on payment maybe?
If not, i guess support can sort you out.

prisma schooner
#

i have been trying this shit for three days and the same shit keeps happening over and over again

wary yew
#

Yeah Support then >.<

true ingot
#

I'm pretty sure it's because they have no attached payment or balance they can't

#

but thats just my guess

#

emphasis on guess

prisma schooner
#

but when i tried to add balance to the account the card that i have used before to buy things in blizzard shop popped up

#

so should i try adding balance or what?

warped jungle
#

so the only way to remove the effect of corruption on my character is to cleanse it?

true ingot
#

I think it might be best to only suggest checking with support at this point @prisma schooner there is something your doing wrong that we can't see it seems

#

support can actually see what your doing on thier end at least

#

@warped jungle yeap

prisma schooner
#

how do i write to support?

true ingot
#

sign in first though

vague pivot
#

Or use in game help

prisma schooner
#

why does the shop menu go black when i try to connect to the store cause apparently that is the problem or something?

vague pivot
#

You need to be talking to Blizzard at this point

prisma schooner
#

well i know

#

that i have to talk to them

floral gorge
#

idk

#

few times i got the same problem

prisma schooner
#

@vague pivot should i pick submit a bug or open a ticket?

vague pivot
prisma schooner
#

bro the problem is it wont open the damn store page when i click how much it costs

vague pivot
#

I would just open a ticket. It will ask you leading questions and try to find a solution automatically - if it can't find a solution you can type up the problem. Be as detailed as possible.

warped jungle
#

i can buy it

#

bought one a few hours ago actually

prisma schooner
#

what happend when you pressed aud 25?

#

cause when i press €20 as it says for me a black box pops up and then the screen turnes blue for a few sec then it says processing your order please check back later

#

@warped jungle

warped jungle
prisma schooner
#

bro

#

that screen doesnt pop up for me

warped jungle
#

How old are you?

#

You able to even use the store on your account?

prisma schooner
#

it looks exaclty like that for me except the box where it says please select a payment option it is black

#

man i was able to buy the thing for 80€

pallid fulcrum
#

Are you on a trial edition account?

prisma schooner
#

no

warped jungle
#

Are you under 18

#

And unable to use the store

prisma schooner
#

i think that when i made the account i put it so its older than 18

warped jungle
#

Are YOU actually over 18

#

Or underage

prisma schooner
#

I AM NOT 18

#

WHY YOU ASK?

warped jungle
#

Get your parent or guardian to contact blizzard and show proof that you are their child and they consent to you using the shop.

vague pivot
#

Wow somebody's testy

warped jungle
#

Won't help you next time if your just gonna be a pain about it tbh

prisma schooner
#

but I COULD BUY THE THING FOR 80€

warped jungle
#

Yeah so could I 7 years ago when I was underage

vague pivot
warped jungle
#

But I showed proof I had a parent or guardian ect

prisma schooner
#

yea so why wouldnt i be able to buy this shit then? but i didnt have to show proof i had a parent or guardian when i bought the thing for 80€

warped jungle
#

Go talk to support, I can't help you anymore

prisma schooner
#

ok

real sigil
#

He’s been here for about a week not listening to help now

prisma schooner
#

ok

real sigil
#

I’m not surprised to hear he’s underaged

prisma schooner
#

but i tried to write to support but i still couldnt fix it

empty acorn
#

@prisma schooner hey, what’s the problem, I see that everyone else is too busy complaining about your age to help

real sigil
#

Someone else that cant read I see

#

Not like theres an hour long backlog of people trying

empty acorn
#

Why are y’all asking if he’s over 18 anyway, it doesn’t matter if he is or isnt

#

It matters if his account is set over 18

#

Which he said it was

real sigil
#

It does because the account doesnt let you buy things if his age is set wrong

#

He said he thinks it was

#

Hence the support issue

#

Which he’s refused to do

#

Just read up before jumping in next time

prisma schooner
#

what do i refuse to do mr i know every thing and is better than everybody else?

empty acorn
#

I did read up, and it seems both parties are wrong here, so I was trying to help, as well

prisma schooner
#

@real sigil

real sigil
#

“Both parties” no, he needs to contact support and is being impatient about it

#

And its been over a week of this

#

But again, it’ll go in circles and its not getting solved here

vague pivot
#

Just block - she wants someone to fix it for her not do it herself

prisma schooner
#

@real sigil listen i did contact them but it says to change parental controls if a message pops up which says that i am not allowed to do ingame purchases but that message doesnt pop up

#

so yea

#

and @real sigil back to my first question what am i refusing to do?

empty acorn
#

from what im hearing, you are trying to help, you just... well arent doing it right

#

but i do agree, Z, you need to be a bit more patient

real sigil
#

Go ahead then, since clearly directing him to support is not “doing it right”

#

But like I said, its been a while already, its not like people havent tried

empty acorn
#

that was the right move, support

#

but from what im hearing, this doesnt seem like an age thing

west field
#

"Support told me they can't help and only @real sigil in the Wowhead Discord has the rights to fix my account"

real sigil
#

Pretty much

#

If support cant help it how are we supposed to

vague pivot
#

It's also not a Wowhead thing so please take it somewhere else

empty acorn
#

and you are all jumping to their age, then say "uuh, im not suprised"

real sigil
#

Yeah?

#

Him not owning the payment method probably comes into play. Him not speaking to support probably comes into it

#

Has nothing to do with us or the discord

empty acorn
#

this is the problem with so many WOW discords

#

they said they did speak to support

real sigil
#

So they spoke to support, the official blizzard support team, and thought “wow i bet wowhead would know more”

#

Do you just not see the problem here

empty acorn
#

no, not really

real sigil
#

Lmao

#

This is some advanced knowledge here

empty acorn
#

they are looking for help, if someone doesnt know how to help, you look for it somewhere else

real sigil
#

I’m done

#

The only people in the world that can help them is blizzard

#

And you think the wowhead discord can do more

#

Lmao

empty acorn
#

even if the first party may be more likely to know, the second party may know something the first one doesnt

real sigil
#

They own his account

#

Are you serious

#

Holy fuck lmao

empty acorn
#

a player might know more about a glitch than the maker of a game, something like that can happen quite often in a lot of games

real sigil
#

Its not a glitch in the game, its literally an account issue

empty acorn
#

yes, correct

#

my point still stands, though

real sigil
#

And how are you going to fix his account issue

#

You cant

#

Do you see now?

empty acorn
#

by suggesting some fixes they havent tried,

#

nope

real sigil
#

This is bait at this point, nobody can be this dense

empty acorn
#

it really isnt, im just trying to help

vague pivot
#

Ok real question: I boosted a rogue to 120 so I could open the million barnacled lockboxes I had...now I have a 120 rogue. Griftah in rogue order hall in Dalaran has a "fence your loot" option - it that supposed to sell the stuff I pickpocket/ Doesn't seem to do anything. Yes I've checked the Wowhead site and I don't really understand. The info seems outdated.

real sigil
#

So when you pickpocket legion enemies they drop items which get converted into “coins of air”

#

Used to be the items would take up inventory slots and you’d have to do it manually

#

But now its automatic

#

Afaik its just a holdover and doesnt do anything anymore

vague pivot
#

I get coins of air and loot - the loot automatically turns into coins of air now? That's awesome thanks...need to buy some toys 🎉

real sigil
#

Yeah, the loot just gets converted once you pick them up

cunning depot
#

im trying to do island expeditions and Captain Rez'okun (the npc that would give you the quest) isnt giving me the ques

real sigil
#

The quest to unlock them?

#

Or the weekly?

#

@cunning depot

vague pivot
#

Is there a quest to unlock them? I thought you just went and clicked on the table. When you collect enough azurite (or however it's spelled) he is the turn in guy.

real sigil
#

I couldnt remember if they needed unlocking or not honestly; you’re right with the rest though

vague pivot
#

There may be a breadcrumb quest that's not required, but when I started doing them I just clicked on the table IIRC (that's a big if tho 😂 )

#

Ok another question - maybe not the best place for it but I'm looking to do a 5 mask run. All research done, cloak resist of 116 - wondering what the best group makeup is. I'm thinking that 2-3 ranged might be easiest because the mobs have less health than with a full group and ranged keeps you away from a lot of sanity loss. Not sure if a healer is necessary.

As an arcane mage I can fly through with 1-2 masks but I can't solo with 5. Ilevel like 460 or something like that.

cunning depot
#

@real sigil im not sure i saw a video saying that island expeditions are good to do to level up

#

i just wanna do island expeditions

real sigil
#

You just click the table infront of the captain

cunning depot
#

i am

#

do i need to be friendly with the zandalari empire?

real sigil
#

Gotta be 116 and do war campaign apparently

cunning depot
#

BRUH

#

ok

#

thank you

real sigil
#

No worries

#

@vague pivot masks dont generally need a solid group like dungeons, i’ve managed to go through with me and a dk on 5-masks; as long as you’ve got people that know what they’re doing you’ll more than likely be okay

#

Its just having enough ilvl for the most part

#

460-475 should be enough

swift timber
#

What kind of graphics card do I need to run this on 1440p ultra using a 34 inch ultrawide?

@real sigil Thanks I think I'll try with 1-2 others. Less chaotic.

PB_shrug a GTX 1060 6gb worked fine for me on medium-ish settings for my 32inch 1440p monitor

swift timber
#

@modern herald nice! So how much further dyu think I'd have to go?

#

I failed at getting an RTX 3080 today

#

Everyone did and I don't want to go super deep on a card like the 2080 ti

#

I just want something that'll do the job until the rtx 3000 cards are axtt for sale steadily which will probably be a few months away

modern herald
#

can't really say for sure what's best since I'm not actually that good with PC parts (and just got help picking good stuff for my new PC earlier this year)

true ingot
#

try asking in the "buildapc" discord they are pretty knowledgeable over there

modern herald
#

but I guess if you can manage finding a cheap GTX 1060-1080 from somewhere trusted it'll serve you well enough for the time being, or it can serve as a backup for later

#

could probably even look for a cheap RTX 2060 or whichever was the lowest model, unless some other & better model isn't that much more expensive (let's say 50 euros or dollars more expensive, for example)

#

though yeah, I'd prolly try finding some other place where people that really know about PC stuff can help you more, like Crystal suggested: the buildapc Discord

true ingot
#

they can be a buncha trolls sometimes but they know their stuff over there

pallid fulcrum
#

Is this where I can ask for help in wow

#

I’m new to the game been playing it for a week now first character I sorta need help with my spells etc if anyone can help me just dm thank you

#

@modern herald @true ingot @modern herald found a solution over at the pc master race discord! I have a wow question tho. I'ma new player. Really new. As in I plan to start during shadowlands. Is there any reason to start sooner?

fast pebble
#

umarusmile not really

#

bfa is not fun

swift timber
#

Yeah that's what I heard

fast pebble
#

u can farm a cool transmog if thats ur thing

#

thats the only reason i log in and im a new player

swift timber
#

The changes I saw for shadowlands made me want to play tbh

severe loom
#

When can I go from vanilla to Outland? LVL 58? I'm 54 ready to leave these vanilla zones behind lol

swift timber
#

I've never wanted to before now and I've been aware of wows existence since it launched

fast pulsar
#

Anyone got a good gold farm method?

#

not the best just an easy one

real sigil
#

You can buy a sub and play up to level 110 currently and get a sorta head-start on the game but. Honestly starting in SL will be the best thing for you.

calm salmon
#

im really interessted in playing shaman, but i keep seeing people say the class is very weak and needs buffs. is this true? and how viable is it for late game content

real sigil
#

Everything people are saying about any class right now is all in beta and isn't really fair to judge on. Shamans a great class, fun to play and has personally been my main through BFA; in SL it's getting changes same as everything else

#

If you wanna play shaman, play shaman

calm salmon
#

would you say any class is viable if played correctly?

real sigil
#

Definitely, yeah. Having someone that knows what they're doing on a "weaker" class will be infinitely better than someone who chooses the meta and has zero clue

#

Survival Hunter currently is the "worst" Hunter spec, but players have managed to play that pretty well in raids and mythics completely fine

#

beating out other DPS

calm salmon
#

i want to try all these classes out, but when i see people say they are weak an irrelevant it makes me unsure of whether to play them or not

viscid nimbus
#

Blizzard is fairly good at keeping anything viable in theory.
The only thing really stopping you is other players' perceptions.
Playing with a guild usually eliminates this issue, unless it's a cesspool guild.

#

Though tbf, 8.0 Ele Shaman was probably the worst spec I've seen in several years.
They did kinda fix it later in BfA.

calm salmon
#

but i guess i should justignore peoples opinions and just play whatever i want

viscid nimbus
#

^

real sigil
#

You aren't going to be denied or passed over, nothing like that. The people that are saying "X is weak and irrelevant" are usually talking about the extremes, hardcore mythic raiding and top of the line-tier of play

#

yeah, definitely

#

if there was just two or three classes that ruled the game, it's all you'd see

calm salmon
#

true

viscid nimbus
#

Every class brings some sort of unique niche to the table as well, even if it's sometimes small.

#

Shamans, for example, can bring incredibly useful raid tools like Bloodlust or Wind Rush Totem.

calm salmon
#

yeah i wanted to play somewhat of a hybrid class, as i find pure dps to get a little stale at times if played too much

real sigil
#

Shaman, druid, monk and paladin; can recommend them all honestly

viscid nimbus
#

Shaman is definitely a good pick. Restoration is one of the more fun healers imo.

calm salmon
#

gonna play with a new shaman once the prepatch comes out

real sigil
#

at least currently. SL changes might suddenly decide otherwise but

calm salmon
#

all the class changes are coming in the prepatch right?

real sigil
#

Yeah, along with the levelling change

#

There'll be more leading up to SL launch, iirc

calm salmon
#

should i care about what race i chose for each class or should i just pick whatever i prefer?

real sigil
#

Nah you can generally pick any; like I said before when people talk about race / class combos, it's usually tiny measures of advantages

#

something like 0.02% dps increase if you pick a troll mage, for example

dim sigil
#

Yeah just pick whatever you like

calm salmon
#

yeah i kind of guessed it was for over the top performance

#

and i am not going for any world records lol

real sigil
#

exactly

dim sigil
#

More likely to enjoy the game if you play what you enjoy rather than what's optimal 🙂

#

If you pick the optimal then win win

real sigil
#

plenty of time to optimise if you wanna go that route, like.. games been around 16 years now, there's always content, always people that wanna push and be the best. If you don't wanna, you don't gotta.

#

people pay their £10 / $15 a month just to play dress up

#

nothing bad, but y'know

calm salmon
#

thanks for helping me out, now i dont have to worry about classes/races anymore

real sigil
#

yeah no problem

short thicket
#

are there any mounts thats not a horse pre level 50? (im level 43 btw)

west field
#

Yes you can ride any ground mount at level 43 given you have trained your riding skill.

#

Any flying mount too. It just won't fly.

old zinc
#

Assuming you're a human
You have to get exalted with the other cities to access non-horse mounts

short thicket
#

dont i get some mounts from dungeons/

#

btw my riding skill is at the first upgrade

dim sigil
#

There aren't many low level dungeon mounts. You will start to get more at higher levels 🙂

vague pivot
#

Strat is the lowest level one with a mount now?

old zinc
#

Correct - Service Gate specifically

#

aka the pug nightmare

bitter apex
#

Does anyone know why my WoW is having delayed input. Whenever I try something as combat/Flying/Picking up items its extremely delayed. I have the game installed in an SSD and just did a reinstall.

real sigil
#

Internet issues?

#

Could just be lag, on your end or the games

bitter apex
#

The game itself

#

and I have a high end PC with RTX 2070 Super etc

pallid fulcrum
#

Sounds like lag, internet delay

#

You can test if you have lag in cmd

bitter apex
#

just did a speedtest

#

500 mbps down and 50 up etc

pallid fulcrum
#

That's not lag, that's speed. You can have the fastest connection in the world & still have lag

bitter apex
#

12 ms

#

how can I test that?

pallid fulcrum
#

Yes, 12 ms are good - but those 12 ms need to be constant, all the time - if it looses even one of those packages, you get lag

real sigil
#

It'll tell you more if you hover over the red question mark in-game; that'll show yours and the worlds MS

bitter apex
#

I think I know why

#

Background download

#

WoW is downloading stuff in the background

real sigil
#

thats more than likely it

pallid fulcrum
#

Properly indeed. If not, go
Start > type "cmd", open, type
ping www.google.com -t

That shows the packages you send & receive - if it says "Connection timed out", that will result in lag. You can play mp games on a mere 5 mbit

bitter apex
#

yeah it was the update. thanks for the help both of you.

neon cedar
#

might even manage on 500kps

#

biggest problem there is discord wanting to download whatever it's downloading when you start a game, and lagging it out to a disconnect 🙄

grizzled holly
#

guys I have a question
if I get any mount on the SL ptr it links with my main account
?

keen pewter
#

PTR is never permanent

grizzled holly

thanks!!

hello, i really wanna unlock void elves, do i have to wait for shadowlands to come out considering it’d be a waste to get bfa now? someone told me that it’s possible to get them now even without the expansion, but that can’t be true right :0

real sigil
#

Currently you need bfa to unlock them but you can do suramar to get started

#

Argus, even

pallid fulcrum
#

you can get them right now, but it's a longer grind to earn them currently. In SL's they'll be taking that out

#

so save some money and time and just wait for SL's to drop imo but you do what you need to

gray ice
#

a doubt, this pre-sale already contains shadowlands for those who get the game for the first time? (never played it before and I'm looking to buy the game)

keen pewter
#

Yes

pallid fulcrum
#

Yes.

gray ice
#

okay tyvm ❤️

silent hatch
#

you can get them right now, but it's a longer grind to earn them currently. In SL's they'll be taking that out
@pallid fulcrum

ooh awesome, i currently don’t really have anything to do so i’ll try to tackle the grind. by any chance, do you have a link for a guide for it? i searched google and i can’t find one without buying bfa. or if not do u mind summarizing what i need to do? tysm.

real sigil
#

Argus is what you need to complete primarily

pallid fulcrum
#

hello, i really wanna unlock void elves, do i have to wait for shadowlands to come out considering it’d be a waste to get bfa now? someone told me that it’s possible to get them now even without the expansion, but that can’t be true right :0

you can do it in a matter of days with the current rep buff and surplus of world quests/dailies/main story of argus

#

up to you whether you think it's worth waiting to get them for 'free' or doing them now for a few days to get them sooner

real sigil
#

Yeah they are, it's just tagged as RP

#

nothing actually changes, just communities

pallid fulcrum
#

They're the same, just quite a bit more casual due to community perception.

#

Also you'll find roleplayers everywhere. It's practically the game for many of them, including me.

cobalt flint
#

There are also some technical differences, but they are not too important.

keen pewter
#

Yeah, get used to people roleplaying freely w/o care of anyone judging them (pls don't judge them)

pallid fulcrum
#

Mhm, like sharding which I don't believe exists on roleplay servers.

keen pewter
#

I don't know if that's true

pallid fulcrum
#

That could have changed though.

keen pewter
#

But don't @ me on that

pallid fulcrum
#

Yeah, it's just pre-60 zones though.

#

Not the rest of the game.

cobalt flint
#

You never meet people from non-RP servers in the open world. Maybe except the newest expansion zones.

pallid fulcrum
#

I can't remember the last time I saw someone not from Moon-Guard outside of instanced content tbh.

keen pewter
#

Same for me from WrA IIRC. So yeah, no sharding I guess?

cobalt flint
#

If you need something from a low-level open world rare, consider just making a character on a French or German RP realm.

keen pewter
#

WrA and MG are both big servers tho, so that might be more of the reason than them being RP ?

pallid fulcrum
#

It looks like in 2017 it was removed for pre-60 old world zones. Current forum posts seem to suggest it's across the board now.

#

That's also possible. MG is huge.

#

Like 80k active players or something, with the vast majority of them on Alliance.

cobalt flint
#

Also, the Goldshire inn on Moonguard-US and Argent Dawn-EU are… questionable places to hang around.

pallid fulcrum
#

Mhm. Moon-Guard is often defined by Goldshire but it's just a footnote in the greater server dichotomy.

#

What MG is really known for is Tournament of Ages, WoW's largest non-Blizzard sponsored event in the entire game.

#

Had 3000 attendees over the first week of August and they raised like $15000 for charity. The leader, Maxen, shaved his head on stream because they reached their goal.

#

We even had a Forbes article

#

It's why I'm always disappointed when people call RP stupid or define the community by the Goldshire community.

keen pewter
#

Never said you did 😛 just saying it out loud

#

RP servers aren't bad, people is usually chill there. Yes, I'm in Wyrmrest Accord, US-Horde

#

I just raid with my guild, I'm not really into RP xD

#

There're lots of non-RP guilds and players

pallid fulcrum
#

RP servers are just a comfortable gathering place for RPers with minor technical changes. They have everything standard servers have so it sounds like you'd enjoy it.

Can a zandalari equipment cache have rings?

i had one turtle but it gave me a trinket, was still an upgrade tho

#

yeah theres plenty of time

400 on this toon, 430 seems to be the easiest to get to in a few days, done it on two already

still havent found a good source of rings other than praying to the turtle gods

#

Don’t know if this counts as help but Does anyone know about the thing for like if you pay 200k gold you can get 1 month to play for free?

old zinc
#

Yeah it's just buying a game token with gold through the AH
It's like 138k right now on NA

runic sage
#

@old zinc is it hard to get that amount of gold?

old zinc
#

Ehhhhh it depends on your playstyle but if you're wanting to keep up with getting it in a month you'd need more than one 120 and farm a lot of stuff

#

It's not something you can get as a trial, so you'd have to spend at least a month or two play time with normal money while you're starting out and establishing characters and income

#

Anyone know where I can get the Overcharged Capacitator?

terse oyster
#

This may seem like a stupid question. But I just boosted a toon and it has most flightpaths already unlocked in multiple areas. Is there a way to do that on my other toons without boosting? Or do I actually have to go around to each one and unlock them

true ingot
#

Somewhat

wary yew
#

There are heirloom maps that unlock quite a few. Each of them cost 10k gold iirc

true ingot
#

there are two Toy Heirlooms that unlock alot of Flight Points; 2 for Alliance and 2 for Horde

#

they aren't CRAZY expensive...but can be a bit outta reach for a new player

#

....I want to say Honorbound and 7th Legion Vendors?

wary yew
#

So either 20k gold or boosting. Or, put in the legwork 😄

#

Not sure about the honorbound stuff tbh, i now in ironforge you can get them for 10k each.

true ingot
#

oh they added it to the heirloom npc? hmm..

#

Oh.

#

...why did I think it was the bfa vendors.

terse oyster
#

Where abouts can I find said Vendor?

#

And is there an heirloom for Legion flightpaths?

true ingot
#

Breadcrumb quests bring you to main junction for legion areas when you choose them from the class hall maps

#

The following vendors sell heirloom shoulders, chests, trinkets, necklaces, and weapons, and both sets of the heirloom upgrade tokens for gold:

Krom Stoutarm: The Library, Hall of Explorers, Ironforge
Estelle Gendry: Rogues' Quarter, Undercity

#

Each City has the Guild Vendor somewhere for more Heirlooms

#

but you gotta be...revered? in a guild for those

terse oyster
#

They also include the flightpath heirlooms? Does anyone know what's they're called

true ingot
#

Alliance: To Modernize the Provisioning of Azeroth and Surviving Kalimdor
Horde: The Azeroth Campaign and Walking Kalimdor with the Earthmother

#

Ohhhhhhh. thats where my brain was getting lost. Apparently there are bfa specific versions..

#

not heirlooms though 😦

#

ugh I'm not braining enough for being helpful today

neon cedar
#

well they're kinda heirlooms

#

just don't go to the heirloom collection

#

like old heirlooms 😛

#

(the BFA ones)

#

but the old world ones only give some of the FPs

true ingot
#

yea also like 100g each...

#

I just never noticed I didn't have a item for it each time I played BFA because the FP's weren't as needed while working through the story

#

i have quite a few 120s that never actually used the scouting map....
