[pallid fulcrum]

Hope you get lucky and its sooner rather than later xS

[broken bronze]

So if I deleted the game and reinstalled it, are the addon still there that I put? (Classic)

[pallid fulcrum]

Should be, yea. You may have to redo all ypur settings for them but the addons are saved in your twitch or curse or whatever folder, not game files.

[broken bronze]

okay

[cobalt flint]

It's best to save your Addons folder just in case

[scenic cloud]

I have a quick question: My game time ends today (but I have a token on my inv), And I wont play until Friday, My question is: If get rewards on the weekly chest on Wednesday but I dont use my token until Friday to save 5 days, will I still recieve the stuff?

[coral rampart]

if i remember right shit in the vault stays until next reset so you can pick it up anytime before reset

im not sure about your math there ..

[scenic cloud]

but its ok if i dont have active game time on Wednesday?

[coral rampart]

if you did some m+ before wed to get weekly vault its fine you just need to activate before next wed to pickup before weekly reset

[scenic cloud]

ok, ty

[neon wing]

What do you do if you’ve ram out of things to do in WoW?

[torn mortar]

any idea on how to use account balance for wow time other than the 60 day option?

[coral rampart]

token

token = 30days

[torn mortar]

it wont let me buy it

tells me to buy in the game and that $77

[coral rampart]

its impossible to run out of things to do in wow ... there is over 10years of content .. just collecting mounts and pets takes many years...... you are prob just bored....

[coral rampart]

if you have account balance check ingame store

or battlenet store

[torn mortar]

I have, the token is 20 in the shop but it wont let me buy it, then i go to in game and its 77

[coral rampart]

🤔 77 thats impossible

[torn mortar]

and support is not responding to my ticket at all.

[coral rampart]

did you try open battle net

and go into shop

search for token and buy

[torn mortar]

I have

the thing in game is for 6 months, i dont even see the token actually

[coral rampart]

its under wow token tab

20$ or €

and when you click on it

it lets you pick paypal or blizz balance or other cards

[torn mortar]

i dont have a wow token tab

[coral rampart]

damn

get rekt

wait

are you maybe on classic wow ?

[torn mortar]

no i am trying to get it for retail

[coral rampart]

🤔 idk man send a ticket

[torn mortar]

i have, no one is responding.

[coral rampart]

its sunday

[torn mortar]

thank you for the info though, i appreciate it

it says 24/7 on here.

[coral rampart]

😩 its sunday

if i had to answer 1000 tickets a day on a sunday

id slack too

[torn mortar]

true

[fathom solar]

Mine works fine in-game.

I think your issue is that it appears you have USD in your balance but you're trying to buy a EUR WoW token. You can't use USD to buy EUR stuff, and vise versa.

^^ look at that, assistance on a Sunday @ 2:12am local time, only about 20 minutes after you asked. 😛 Enjoy @torn mortar

[torn mortar]

thank you

[fathom solar]

Note I don't work for Blizzard, so don't give 'em credit. 😛

[torn mortar]

lol, so the thing is im in the us and my account is us registered so i dont get why its eur

[fathom solar]

You must be logging in to the EU region?

[fathom solar]

Does it say US or EU next to your name on the Battle.net launcher?

If it says EU, then log out of Battle.net and make sure you change the region

[north quail]

I’m looking for people to play with if anyone interested

[pallid fulcrum]

You can check the group channels for that, @north quail

[torn mortar]

oh ok ill check that now @fathom solar

it says americas

[fathom solar]

Okay, login with Americas... then check the Game Version & Account on the WoW launcher tab.

Does it say US or EU?

@torn mortar

[torn mortar]

wow1 (us)-shadowlands

[fathom solar]

Alright, go into game again and open up the WoW Token shop page again, see what happens

[torn mortar]

theres no token tab for me.

[fathom solar]

Screenshot please?

[fathom solar]

Log into a character. The WoW Token tab is in-game, not on that page.

[pallid fulcrum]

I'd exit the game and go to the Blizzard App store page.

[fathom solar]

You can't buy WoW Tokens from the shop page.

[pallid fulcrum]

Oh, they want a WoW Token? I thought they only needed game time. My B.

[fathom solar]

yea a token

[fathom solar]

So log into a character, since you don't have a sub you'll probably need to pick one that's level 20 or lower.

[torn mortar]

ok. ill try that

[fathom solar]

The WoW Token only shows up once you're logged into a character, not the login screen shop.

[pallid fulcrum]

im doing a quest in tbc

and

it requires demonic runestones to destroy some sort of towers

and i have the stones

but when i click it it says "missing reagent: Demonic Rune Stone"

[torn mortar]

still greyed out for me

[fathom solar]

It may be necessary for you to have a sub to buy a WoW token, I'm not sure, I've never been unsubbed.

[pallid fulcrum]

yes

it is

[torn mortar]

it gives me the option buy with gold on select screen but i dont have that much gold

[fathom solar]

Yea I remember now, you can only buy with gold if you don't have a sub.

[torn mortar]

well then im just screwed for now then

thank you for trying to help me

[fathom solar]

No problem. Good luck out there, stay safe!

[fathom solar]

Sadly I don't know enough about that subject to help ya.

[coral rampart]

gotta kill more shit

and get their drops

drop is demonic rune stone

i assume its the one for like closing portals

been ages since i done it

[signal oyster]

can someone help me

understand how wow dungeones work how many can i do daily and stuff like that

[coral rampart]

you can do as many normal and heroic dungeons as you like

mythic is once a week (loot locked)

m+ is unlimited

normal and heroic can be queued from LFG tab

mythic you need go make group and go to dungeon directly

[signal oyster]

so i can lvl up from dungeones alone that means?

[coral rampart]

yes

but its not that fast

questing is much faster

[mystic bane]

just me or was there 3 pings in here?

[fathom solar]

Probably just you.

[mystic bane]

hmm

I swear when I woke up in the middle if my sleep there were 3 pings

but oh well

[fathom solar]

The last time you were pinged in this server, specifically, was March 22 by Baifeng (this isn't including any everyone pings in other channels).

[mystic bane]

oh, well must have been my half asleep ass being delusional again

[daring shard]

No there was 3 here I had them aswell

[mystic bane]

ghost pings tho

[short frost]

wasnt there like a bot pinger yesterday?

[signal oyster]

i feel like questing xp is slow only 8 k xp per quest

should be more like 20 in my opinion xp

[short frost]

don't worry about it

[topaz cairn]

how do you get the death wing mount?

[pallid fulcrum]

[Obsidian Worldbreaker]?

[forest lily]

Obsidian Worldbreaker - https://www.wowhead.com/item=172012/obsidian-worldbreaker - Live 9.0.5

Obsidian Worldbreaker

Live 9.0.5

[pallid fulcrum]

This one?

[topaz cairn]

yeh

[pallid fulcrum]

From doing the timewalking boss rush during the anniversary

[topaz cairn]

oh is it like an event type of thing?

[pallid fulcrum]

Yeah

[topaz cairn]

has the anniversary already been this year?

[pallid fulcrum]

In November

[topaz cairn]

oh okay

[pallid fulcrum]

Check the in game calendar

[prime elbow]

that one was the last year event, was nothing like that this year

and yeah, you cant get it anymore. same with the [core hound] mount

[forest lily]

Core Hound - https://www.wowhead.com/pet=45/core-hound - Live 9.0.5

Core Hound

Live 9.0.5

[pallid fulcrum]

I think it's still available

The boss rush is still in the game

So I think the Worldbreaker is, too

[prime elbow]

nah its not.

however, it can turn up on the black market, if thats what youre referring to.

[graceful fern]

Anyone having trouble w/ guild chat?

not seeing anything even the guild members online/offline

[stiff tundra]

Hey guys ive got a issue in shadowlands my charecter is keep getting stuck in dusty burrows

I really dont know what to do and its frustrating

[topaz cairn]

does anyone know how to fix this? my guild tab is broke it was doing this yesterday and i asked to get kicked and joined back and it worked but i dont wanna do this everyday

[prime elbow]

@topaz cairn does /groster work?

[topaz cairn]

yeah but it didnt fix anything

[prime elbow]

well no. its just to temp use.

[topaz cairn]

i still cant type or see the chat or anything like that

do i just hope that eventually it will fix?

[prime elbow]

you can try this, if anything: https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/14526

else, try with 0 addons enabled. if that doesnt work, make a ticket.

[topaz cairn]

still wont work with no addons sadly

[bright peak]

Jumping back into wow, been several years since I’ve played doing the no sub for now until I level and find some crews

[short frost]

make sure to enable guild chat in your chat settings

[cobalt flint]

@topaz cairn I have experienced problems with guild chat today. It just went away after I was logged out for a couple of minutes.

[topaz cairn]

oh okay thanks

[eternal atlas]

people can still buy 1 month subs or it's already switched to 2 months only mode?

[short frost]

subs still go for 1, 3 or 6 months afaik
it's game time that goes for 2 months only

[cobalt flint]

The difference is that sub automatically refresh until you cancel, while game time is prepaid.

[glass star]

noob question, but wasn't there a portal from Acherus (dk starting zone) to orgrimmar near the flightguy?

[cobalt flint]

If you did Legion quests, there is portal to Dalaran there instead.

[glass star]

ic, nah sadly not just started few days ago, but i found my way through a wod map :D thanks tho!

[inland dock]

So my guild functionality is just gone. The button says "unavailable" in red. I can't do anything but to my guildies it shows that i'm on and in game.

I've disabled all addons.

[prime elbow]

@inland dock same as this? #wow-help message

[azure reef]

im unable to check guilds and communities same

[inland dock]

Exactly the same.

[azure reef]

doesnt even give me the option lol

[prime elbow]

try the suggestions i posted and see if that helps

[inland dock]

So the only option then is to delete and then restore the character? OOOOOF

[azure reef]

thats only for character transfers etc

hence why id have to do that since my dh was on a different server and faction

[inland dock]

That's what the blizz link recommends doing if you can't see guild chat.

[azure reef]

only mentions it for transfers etc

[inland dock]

ah missed that bit

Well then I guess i'll make a ticket

however googling shows this issue has been around since at least 2019 so I feel like making a ticket would be as useful as telling water not to be wet. lol

[teal quartz]

You can wait for Tuesday, weekly reset

[pallid fulcrum]

But not filling out a ticket completely removes the possibility that the problem could be addressed

At least when you fill out a ticket, you're doing the bare-minimum about it instead of bending over and letting the problem happen

[inland dock]

nah I just tweeted at them for a more direct response.

which I got 🙂 https://twitter.com/BlizzardCS/status/1381277156337192973?s=20

Cool, maybe they'll remove the entire ticket feature and just replace it with a retweet text box

[thorny heron]

hi guys, i need help on unlocking the mechagnomes. it seems all the guides presuppose ive played Bfa but i havent. anyone who can help me?

[azure reef]

if you havent played bfa youll have to start it

which you can do in your major city

[thorny heron]

i have, but just at the end before SL

dont think i have ended the storyline

[inland dock]

I mean it would be reflective of the times. 😛

[cobalt flint]

First of all, you should do all of the following on an Alliance character. Normally there is supposed to exist a skip if you do it on Horde, but it didn't work when I tried it.

1. Reach level 50.
2. Obtain Heart of Azeroth (possibly optional, but it's best to do it)
3. Unlock Mechagon (find a guide on Wowhead on how to do it, you will need to visit Nazjatar along the way)
4. Complete the Mechagonian Threat achievement. For that you will need to complete the main questline on Mechagon, with the last quest asking you to…
5. …Kill King Mechagon. He is in the Workshop half of the Mechagon dungeon. It's only queueable at level 50 (not 49, not 51, exactly 50). If you have Shadowlands and didn't lock your experience, you will have to get to level 60 to solo it or find a group in a traditional way and do the entire dungeon instead of only half of it.

That will unlock a questline in the Stormwind embassy.

[thorny heron]

im stuck at point 3, will look into that after my raid... thanks alot vengir, very kind of you ❤️

[pallid fulcrum]

Guyz what is the spec meta rn

[mossy cradle]

Vengenace DH, Affli lock, Boomkin, Holy palls, Fire Mage for PVE

Arms warrior, Disc priest, Fire Mage, WW Monk, Sub Rogue for PVP

[pallid fulcrum]

what about ele shaman

hey guys i need help unlocking the iron dwarfs.... its making me do a dungeon on my alliance character.
anyone got a moment ?

[lyric harness]

Can anyone suggest me some useful addons for quests and stuff?

[topaz cairn]

Is there a way to search all Auction houses and all realms at the same time?

[cobalt flint]

The default UI is not that bad for questing. Unless you want something specific? "All the Things" is nice for collectors.

[lyric harness]

Sometimes i get confused about the quest and every time i need to look up for wiki lol and thanks

It's not about UI 😄

[neon cedar]

https://theunderminejournal.com/ or https://oribos.exchange/

[foggy whale]

Ele shaman is really good right now, tons of utility and damage

[topaz cairn]

im trying to get the Obsidian Worldbreaker but i cant seem to find any ppl selling the mount on the auction house

[cobalt flint]

I'm not aware of an addon that explains quests in more detail than the normal quest log. When I'm confused, I just check comments on Wowhead.

[prime elbow]

you cant get it unless you get lucky and shows up on the black market

and even if it shows up, it will still be not easy to get unless you have millions of gold to spend

[topaz cairn]

yeh i thought it would be extremely expensive if i found one

[river latch]

If I change my covenant when I'll come back will I keep the buildings I upgraded / Crafted ?

[coarse mulch]

Hi! I am new to the server and game, is it possible if anyone can help me with the classes?

[serene dew]

looking for someone to help teach me the game

[weak jasper]

Is somebody allowed to join during a torghast?

[pallid fulcrum]

Nope

[reef falcon]

whats the best way to lvl up from 50 to 60 😦

[pallid fulcrum]

If I get the free trial of the game then my friend gives me a token, will I be able to play everything other then Shadowlands? Like I can go above 20 and up to 50?

[prime elbow]

im pretty sure you cannot gift a token

[pallid fulcrum]

cant you gift the gold to buy one?

[prime elbow]

that you can, but not the token itself

well... there is a caviat tho... youre unable to actually receive all that gold if you currently dont have active game. cus there is a limit on how much gold a trial account can have.

[azure reef]

do the normal shadowlands campaign

[reef falcon]

here 😦 @azure reef

here ?

[obtuse narwhal]

Hey guys!

I'm playing shadowlands

and the guilds and communities seems to be bugged, guild and communities don't appear and I cant use the chats either

[pallid fulcrum]

[teal quartz]

Threads of Fate

[teal quartz]

Ask in Spanish servers, you won't find many here (no lo creo, busca en chat de español ✌️)

[reef falcon]

better than campaign ?

[teal quartz]

100% yes
Many say you level up faster with main storyline but... I really don't know how

ToF allows world quests, bonus objectives, dungeon spam and covenant + anima gains from the get go, while main story line has many quests that at whist dialogue and "talk to this person" that take long time and only reward like 3-4k XP

When I did main story line , it was painful, took me forever and i couldn't get into dungeons by the end for the lack of items, while doing ToF is a breeze

[pallid fulcrum]

Absolutely not. Quest up to 59, then swap to Threads before you hit 60

Much faster

[reef falcon]

okay @@'

m new to this wow

who should i believe 😦

[pallid fulcrum]

If you haven't leveled to 60 before then Threads won't be an option, and you'll still need to play through the campaign

[pallid fulcrum]

With a little research you'll find that there are many who agree with the method I mentioned

The only time Threads is faster is if you're spamming dungeons as a tank or healer

[teal quartz]

I guess it's faster to cheese it with Party Sync as well, if you want faster , non speedrun leveling

[teal quartz]

Remember you don't have to wait idle while queueing you know? Bastion is choke full of quests you can do while waiting for queues

[pallid fulcrum]

My point is that it's better to just level with the story questing and then swap to Threads before 60, overall

[teal quartz]

The problem with story line, aside from being boring after many times, is that many quests are just "go there, talk to this person" that reward barely any XP

[reef falcon]

worst exp 😦

[teal quartz]

I wouldn't agree so. As a playing experience, the story gets annoying more than once, and dungeon spam with world quests also rewards you for when you reach level 60

When I did my first on my DK, i had barely any anima and needed to buy gear from AH

[pallid fulcrum]

You didn't need to. You chose to

Misleading

[teal quartz]

While doing ToF i had enough anima to boost my covenant armor to heroic Dungeon and last that once I catched up with renown

[teal quartz]

I did, i literally reached lv60 without good gear

I got no items from the mobs i killed and quests gave nothing

[pallid fulcrum]

Your experience is anecdotal and reflects individual playstyle choices over efficiency

[teal quartz]

The thing is, there are no choices with main story line

[pallid fulcrum]

Irrelevant

And inaccurate

[teal quartz]

Relevant, you just said "PlayStyle choices", when there were none doing main storyline

[pallid fulcrum]

I believe you're misunderstanding my use of the word playstyle

I mean how you choose to play, not game decisions

[teal quartz]

Again, with main story line there are no choices, you do the main story line and maybe side quests if that matters but you can do those with ToF as well so we can leave them out of the equation

You get more quests but those have you mostly going to the hubs over and over for no extra quests as often as ToF that has hubs with many quests and side quests that can mix up

[pallid fulcrum]

Moot discussion. Refusing to engage. @reef falcon Do research on both methods, try both, make your own decision. Leveling to 60 isn't hard anyway, all you really gotta do is lean in and do it

[reef falcon]

i just hate doing quests

[teal quartz]

@reef falcon then I'm right

Go for ToF

[reef falcon]

can u send me link or something please

[pallid fulcrum]

That's most of the game. Even once you hit 60, you still need to continue to quest to carry on your covenant campaign

[teal quartz]

You get your covenant power from the get go and dungeons

[pallid fulcrum]

And unlock endgame systems

[teal quartz]

If you're a lax player, ToF is best, you can queue and do other stuff while waiting

[reef falcon]

why do i have to end quests ?

[teal quartz]

Or try to fast level combining dungeons with quests

[reef falcon]

yp thats what i want

yp yp that's how i reached 50 in 2 days lol

[pallid fulcrum]

To gain access to the endgame systems you need to most efficiently succeed at endgame

[teal quartz]

I assumed so, the ToF 100%

[reef falcon]

or even less

[teal quartz]

With catch up, you can get renown through dungeons as well, and get gear with world quests (that usually are kill stuff) or pvp

[reef falcon]

whats end game system ?

[teal quartz]

Renown

[reef falcon]

give me link sir pls

renown ?

[teal quartz]

To unlock torghast, legendaries, and renown

[pallid fulcrum]

Torghast, legendary crafting, a full set of 197 gear by the time you finish your covenant campaign, etc

[teal quartz]

Campaign quest is needed, up to chapter 2/9

[teal quartz]

Icy veins guides ,I'm on phone it's kinda hard. But basically, the lower renown you are, the easier you get renown, doing dungeons or opening callings

[pallid fulcrum]

@reef falcon https://www.wowhead.com/guides/leveling-world-of-warcraft-faq

I'm on the phone too. It's pretty easy

[teal quartz]

Ignore callings about trainee and just do the "assist or defend" callings that can be completed with a single dungeon run for gold, valor conduits and gear

[pallid fulcrum]

Wowhead is an excellent source for guides, and this is the wowhead discord server

[reef falcon]

that you so much guys

u really helped me

[teal quartz]

Claps to you then, someone's angry 😶

[pallid fulcrum]

Idk how you ascribe anger to toneless text but ok

[teal quartz]

You're welcome. I recommend starting a profession as you get to Oribos

[reef falcon]

yp i have herbalism

and alchemy

[teal quartz]

With the needless need to rely to superfluous comments for the sake of coming on top, as some form of superiority complex to prove a point

[teal quartz]

That's best for your main

[pallid fulcrum]

@reef falcon Considering what you said about being new, this page has a collection of many guides that can get you acquainted with several game features:
https://www.wowhead.com/guides/new-players

[teal quartz]

Alchemy has the bonus of double duration from elixir

[pallid fulcrum]

This isn't a competition, drop the ego

[teal quartz]

For profit, leather working is best, you can skin lots from the quests or killing spree , and dungeons

Depend on your character, but leather worker makes gear for the top classes now, druidsz hunters and demon hunters

[reef falcon]

m fire mage

i used to be dk main

[teal quartz]

Leatherworkers get the bonus consumable for stamina, so they'll always have people buying, alchemy has the flasks always on need as well, but herbalism doesn't help much for a main character. Normally it's best to have a druid for the gathering professions

[reef falcon]

but they told me fire mage is the best here

and m doing good

ther's the sky golem mount

that you can gather on it

[teal quartz]

Yes , but combat drops you from it, while travel form doesn't

And druids can escape from basically anyone open pvp and fly away faster, or avoid death with wild charge or stealth around packs of mobs

And with a tauren You have default herbalism increased skillz which means higher drops per node

[reef falcon]

aha got you

[pallid fulcrum]

At the moment every spec is viable unless you're doing anything more difficult than +15 mythic keystone dungeons and heroic raiding. Never forget that a good player with a bad spec will almost always outperform a bad player with a good spec. The only time the meta comes into play is if you're minmaxing, and even then there are prot warriors at high arena ratings and survival hunters in mythic raid

[reef falcon]

so whats the best professions to make alot of money 😦

[pallid fulcrum]

So really you're better off playing what you find the most fun

[teal quartz]

For the start of the expansion z leatherworking, but for future, have an alchemist

Alchemy flask is the most potent consumable, so you'll always have market

Bots farm leather so much you can't compete much , so look for crafting over gathering

[reef falcon]

i used to farm and make flasks my self then sell them btw

[teal quartz]

Many gold guided point at either tailoring or leatherworking, silks are so easy to farm z cheap to make just buying threads +unlike the super annoying blue hide+ and you are guaranteed to get those and Humanoids are the most common nob type

[teal quartz]

Alchemy is good, keep it, but for your main, have 2 crafting professions

You get bonuses like engineers boosting their belt z leather workers with the stamina buff , alchemy with extended potion duration and tailoring with first aid

Plus, knowing BFA previous direction, by 9.1 or 9.2, we'll most likely get a way to craft endgame gear, with something like Abyssal Focus style thing

[reef falcon]

so i need to change herbalism with engineer ?

[teal quartz]

You don't need to but for your main, it's very helpful

As engineer for example, in BFA you had s belt upgrade for s bulky shield or a fear AoE

You have bombs with useful effects, i remember the polymorph bombs working on raid trash mobs, as poly only takes 1

Right now, Wowhead has a recommendation for a Cataclysm belt upgrade for engineers, to summon a decoy that taunts mobs , you can see that as a get away card for open world PvE or min maxing in M+

[viral wagon]

nice cut scenes

[reef falcon]

aha ty

nice

btw

i need a main lvl 60 to start thresh of fate :((( ?

[pallid fulcrum]

That's what I told you before--if you haven't leveled a character to 60 before, then ToF isn't an option and you need to play through the entire leveling campaign before you can unlock your covenant and everything else

[reef falcon]

:(((((((((

sorry btw ...

is there a mob spawns that i can lvl up in ?

[pallid fulcrum]

You still need to finish the leveling campaign

[reef falcon]

i hate doing questststs

i need kill mobs and things i like that 😦

[pallid fulcrum]

Otherwise you won't unlock your covenant, Torghast, the Great Vault, upgrading pvp gear, etc

[reef falcon]

wont have fun doing alot of quests thats why 😦

m i obliged to do it 😦 ?

[pallid fulcrum]

Well this is an MMORPG. Questing is a part of the game

If you wanna play the game, you need to play the game

[pallid fulcrum]

If you don't and don't unlock the endgame features you need, you're not likely going to be able to do any endgame content or continue playing the rest of the expansion. You have to quest at points.

Questing is a part of the game

[reef falcon]

yp yp i'll do it then 😦

tysp 😦

how do i know how much % i did of quests ?

[viral wagon]

i'm getting close to 60

[pallid fulcrum]

In the quest log and map, L or M by default. It'll show your progress for the zone you're in

At least, your progress with that zone's quest storyline

It won't track completion of sidequests and the like

[pallid fulcrum]

Top right

1/7

The quests that contribute to that are the campaign quests, indicated by the shield ? Instead of the circle ?

You've only completed one chapter of the first zone

[reef falcon]

hoow many zones ?

[pallid fulcrum]

4

Well, 4 with the occasional dash back into the Maw

[reef falcon]

aha okay

how much it'll take 😦

[pallid fulcrum]

As long as it takes

Even longer if you're not doing it

[halcyon gull]

Hey all, I know thus is subjective.... but my guild is giving me the option of either Shadow Priest or Boomy. Both are 200 ilvl and I enjoy both equally. What pushes any of you towards one or the other? I wouldn’t be offspeccing except for like, 1% of the time

[grand anvil]

boomy, SP is very bad in M+ and any aoe really . Boomy has more utility .

[teal quartz]

I mean performance wise, Boomie is better

BUT shadow priest scales way better late game, and with 9.1 on the horizon I'd go shadow priest

You can kinda expect soft nerfs to Boomie or convoke, while shadow priests most likely won't get shafted, you don't get as many complains for spriest as Boomie for pvp and pve

[halcyon gull]

Uh oh, we need a tiebreaker, lol

[teal quartz]

There aren't guaranteed hyper spawns in Shadowlands, i know some in BFA but not SL.

Check vault wow, YouTube, he has crazy leveling guides, mainly involving party sync cheat and rare mob hunt.

[grand anvil]

can someone help me make a macro to show/hide a set of Details windows. Id like to have a macro to toggle the viewing of windows for raid and another for M+ . /details toggle works but not for two different groups
Bump

[reef falcon]

btw my main is lvl 52 now not my alt 😦 i only have this char this is new

[teal quartz]

If you insist on killing mobs then you go to Bastion and kill lions near the entrance point, where you start questing with Kleia. there are meant lions there to mass kill, and the North part of Bastion has lots and lots of Mawsworn to kill.

UNFORTUNATELY, you have to do the story line no matter what if it's your first time.

I reached lv60 in Maldraxxus, and had to play through the rest + all revendreth before getting to end game.

If you're forced to do story line then rush through it as fast as possible, ignore all quests and just end that crap, then you're free to do World Quests and all dungeons to reach lv60

[tulip wharf]

does boon of the zookeeper not work anymore

[tranquil merlin]

I’m about to get WoW, and just wanting to know what expansion is best to start at, and also anyone know of a good WoW guide they can lead me to cause I’m gonna be a HARDCORE beginner man. Legit fresh meat to this game! Any help will be awesome 🙏🏽

[sterile spruce]

Returning player here (but i still consider myself a newbie). I started playing WoW on October 2018 but only played until January 2019 and was only able to experience up to BfA patch 8.1 :))) I re-subbed yesterday coz I want to finish the BfA content but unfortunately I found it kinda hard coz there aren't enough people for world quests and raids and other stuff anymore. Any tips regarding this? Should I get a guild? Or just wait for another few years so that I can do BfA content even if im alone

[sterile spruce]

Server and faction?

[tranquil merlin]

Great question! Let me get the game first, I’m getting it tomorrow morning and downloading it on my PC, so when I mean new to this game I mean, gonna download it for the first time ever kind of new my bad 😂

[sterile spruce]

I see! Hope you get into alliance! :))

[tranquil merlin]

Preciate it!! Are you in alliance?? What race is your personal preference to get into?

[tulip wharf]

Is there an addon where I can put coords and have it put a way point there

[cobalt flint]

TomTom

[tulip wharf]

how do I use it

I have it

[cobalt flint]

/way Name of the zone coordinates
For example /way Suramar 34.5 86.3

Name of the zone is optional. In that case it will put the waypoint in your current zone

[tulip wharf]

does cross realm assist work still?

[cobalt flint]

No, as far as I am aware. Blizzard changed the way cross realm grouping works, so it works only for its intended purpose, and not realm hopping.

[hasty spear]

you dont even need to put the zone name if you are in the zone already. just /way 64 25 or something works

[stone fossil]

i just joined hello
i wanna start playing wow and just wanted to ask what is the shadowland thing and the classis once
shouldnt there be only 1?

[cobalt flint]

That's what I said.

[hasty spear]

nevermind then. i basically just woke up and overread it

[cobalt flint]

There are basically two version of the game: Classic, which replicates how the game worked in late 2006 or early 2007, and normal. By buying a subscription or game time, you get access to both. Shadowlands is an optional expansion (or you can call it a DLC) for the normal version, but most people's attention is in Shadowlands, so you might want to buy it as soon as you hit level 50.

[neon wing]

I keep getting this and I can’t open WoW. Any ideas?

[cobalt flint]

Try copying the code and write to Blizzard about it.

[stone fossil]

so u mean i should play classis till im lvl 50 and then shadowlands?

[cobalt flint]

No. Classic is a completely separate game.

What I said is you could play normal version (we call it "retail" here), and then buy Shadowlands.

[stone fossil]

oh

oki!!!

does anyone know how I can view this older forum post?
https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/10671887438

[cobalt flint]

It looks like an old link from back before they redesigned the forum. I'm afraid I don't know how to find it, or if it is even viewable at all.

[olive eagle]

Thanks for the quick reply

I think I read somewhere that it should be available in read-only mode but idk how to access it

[polar wasp]

the forum post most likely doesnt even exist anymore given it redirects to the main landing page with all the categories

it is possible with the redesign they deleted any non archived threads

[olive eagle]

hmm that's too bad

Thanks for the reply guys, appreciate it!

[cobalt flint]

Tried Wayback Machine. But the only useful thing I got is that the topic was called "Rogue Keybinds - Explained"

Pls @ me for answer

Many people are having problems with their guild chat these days. We can only wait for a solution.

[pallid fulcrum]

okay

[tranquil merlin]

Could you lead me to retail version please??

[wet forum]

Asking about skills. Are there any skills like Shadowform in terms of visual style? I mean, where you transform into something or you get some pure aura like this

[agile lagoon]

Paladin in wings

[wet forum]

Thanks a lot! Anything else?

[cobalt flint]

You can make a trial account first that lets you play up to level 20 for free. There is less ways to make a mistake there. Once you reach level 20, you can buy a subscription or 2 months of game time to upgrade that starter account.

[agile lagoon]

Not off the top of my head but I know every venythyr can get a passive that makes them glow red from something in combat

Kyrian monks glow blue

[wet forum]

Do warlocks have some transform skills btw? Or you don't know about warlocks?

[tranquil merlin]

How would I go about doing that? Is it just a simple search on google that takes me to the trial?

[agile lagoon]

Haven't played my lock since legion lol

you could try the wayback machine

[pallid fulcrum]

any ores that sell well that arent from sl?

[short frost]

I dont think so

[wheat owl]

So I finished booty bay as Fury Warrior and then did heroes calling TP'ing to plaguelands and was dealing over 2k-10K damage and then when I started the Warlords of Draenor quest, I went rocketing down to only doing 12-200 damage per hit including some abilites? Is there something I've done wrong? I'm really confused as to why this has happened cause I'm getting throttled in most fights now, can't fight in more than 3 enemies where as I used to

[agile lagoon]

Scaling since the new lvling has been wonk

[quiet agate]

I'm new to wow
My 2 friends got me to join and I want to help them with pvp and get to mythic+
They are fire mage sub rogue and my question is should I be discp priest or holy paladin

[agile lagoon]

Check the pins

[wheat owl]

This was since thursday, Got the damage increase then I went down as soon as I started Draenor so I'm assuming Draenor has cause the enemies to be scaled up big time?

[agile lagoon]

Try going to legion

[pale flare]

ok so i need a bit of help figuring out stuff, rn im doing the drustvar story questline and i bought shadowlands alrdy. Now im at the part to complete the waycrest manor dungeon but my dungeon finder only lets me choose shadowlands specific dungeons which are locked or random timewalking dungeons. So am i supposed to do the dungeon alone?

[coral rampart]

if you are over 50 you cant queue for bfa shit anymore

but you can solo on lvl 60

or find a group and go to the dungeon manualy

[fathom ingot]

Uh can you solo bfa as lvl 60?

I thought scaling was still an issue

[coral rampart]

dungeons on normal

[fathom ingot]

oh

[coral rampart]

and heroic even

you cant do raids

😛

[fathom ingot]

also I thought they added a npc for bfa specifically for queuing for bfa

or is that something else

[coral rampart]

🤔 there are lfr npcs but idk about dungeon npcs

[pale flare]

wat the hell man i didnt know that😭

so now what shld i do

[coral rampart]

level to 60

[pale flare]

straight to shadowlands?

[coral rampart]

😛 play SL

sure

[short frost]

yes

[pale flare]

god dammit

[coral rampart]

you can come back later

[short frost]

no reason not to

[pale flare]

why dont they explain these thingsss

[short frost]

why waste time in old content?

[pale flare]

cause i just startedd

and its interesting

[short frost]

there is the newcomer chat you can ask if you need to

[pale flare]

no one replies

idk why

[short frost]

ask here

xD

[pale flare]

yea

thanks yall

frustrating lmao

[short frost]

wow has always been reliant on its community

[pale flare]

so much stuff i dont know

[short frost]

you learn something new everyday

[pale flare]

mhm

[short frost]

even I do - and I play since 10 years 😄

[pale flare]

oh damn

ive played for 4 days😎

[short frost]

https://tenor.com/view/yoda-patience-you-must-have-patience-gif-15254127

[pale flare]

hehehe

wait if i cant do bfa content can i do the other old content?

or also no

is my only choice shadowlands ;-;

[coral rampart]

no

you can do whatever you want

but should focus on SL

[fathom ingot]

technically you can do the old conest but you'd be overleveled

[coral rampart]

get max level

then go do old shit

[fathom ingot]

and the xp increases are negligible

[pale flare]

oo

[fathom ingot]

i think the only two concerns are bfa scaling and legion scaling for the dungeons/raids

[pale flare]

whats that

[fathom ingot]

though at non mythic difficulty i think youll be fine at max level

[pale flare]

whats scaling

mean

[fathom ingot]

generally mobs scale health and dmg based on your level

[coral rampart]

it means once you hit 60 you can solo any dungeon or raid you want as long as its not BFA or Legion expansion

[pale flare]

oh

[coral rampart]

even tho you can solo some legion raids

i soloed mythic nighthold

ez no sweat

but you cant solo argus raids 😛

[fathom ingot]

but as a level 60, you should be able to destroy any previous expansion because theres no dungeon/raid that scales past 50 technically

but legion and bfa scales even to 60 for some reason

but it's really only at the mythic level

[pale flare]

so after i reach level 60 i have to use group finder to complete my bfa waycrest manor dungeon?

[fathom ingot]

although i dont think anyone can solo bfa raids yet

[coral rampart]

maybe after 9.1 patch you can even solo waycrast

[fathom ingot]

probably yeah

[coral rampart]

new gear should bring bigger dps

atm its possible to solo it on normal

but takes a while

[pale flare]

okk

thanks yall

[teal quartz]

You can with a paladin. Problem with those raids are the bosses hp. it's too much

[fathom ingot]

pog

time to solo as a holypally

[teal quartz]

Champion of the Light in normal has over 700k hp, and a tank damage is what, 2k? and that's without counting the much running around you need to do to avoid the stacking mechanics

so the bosses enrage before you can kill them

[teal quartz]

nah go prot, you will run out of mana. I ran out against Taloc, and nearly died to MOTHER LFR bc the fires always one shot, barely came across (LFR has no enrage timer, making it possible)

[lusty kite]

not that itll hapen anytime soon, but i wanna do the whole bfa story. once i hit max level will it auto start me out with the shadowlands stuff or just give me a starting quest i can work on after finishing bfa?

[coral rampart]

it will give you quest that you can strart SL but you can always do bfa

it wont go anywhere

even if you do SL you can still come back to bfa

only thing that will go away is the dugeon finder

from bfa to SL

[lusty kite]

alright thanks. enjoying bfa so far. level 31

[quartz whale]

I tried to solo Nighthold on my Pally and couldn't get passed Spellblade Aluriel. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

[pallid fulcrum]

So I’m playing wow on a laptop and it says my graphic card is out of date , on low it seems to run fine but what will happen if I don’t upgrade ?

[fluid horizon]

Hi, i would like to get to Nazjatar, i have all the needed reps at Friendly(Horde:Talanji's Expedition, Voldunai, Zandalari Empire)and i'm level60, but the quest The Warchief's Order doesnt pop up, what am i doing wrong?

[prime elbow]

@pallid fulcrum older systems which doesnt meet the recommended specs all have that label now, even if you can run it fine.

[pallid fulcrum]

@prime elbow I don’t know a thing about pc systems so will I be fine to play as long I just keep it on lowest graphics

Or will my laptop blow up

[fathom ingot]

I mean it should be fine

[honest veldt]

i have a quest that tells me to do a dungeon but when i do the dungeon the mobs are to strong does that mean i have to do it with a group if so how do i find a group to plai with

[fathom ingot]

but certain graphics may not show up, possibly greatly hindering your progress

or at least quality of game

[fathom ingot]

looking for group

just queue up for the dungeon

[pallid fulcrum]

Or find a guild

[fathom ingot]

that too but lfg is faster imo

[honest veldt]

i dont see the specific dungeon on find a group

[fathom ingot]

for dungeons

there's a dropdown

select the specific dungeon

generally it says something like random shadowlands dungeon

[prime elbow]

if youre below lvl 50, you can only select dungeons for your current timeline

[honest veldt]

ye but i dont see the name pop up

[fathom ingot]

or whatever expac youre in so random {something} dungeon

what dungeon is it

[teal quartz]

legion is legacy... you should kill it in no time, weird

[honest veldt]

shadowfang jkkeep

shadowfang keep

[prime elbow]

so you need cataclysm timeline

[teal quartz]

Chromie Time

[prime elbow]

unless its your first character

if so, then you have to do bfa content. no way around it, specially for queuing

[pallid fulcrum]

Damn that’s an old dungeon

[honest veldt]

@fathom ingot you dont know?

[fathom ingot]

Well I assume the comments afterwards are sufficient @honest veldt

either you need to be in cata timeline or just finish up bfa

you can make a group (not queue, but actually start a group) for that dungeon as an alternative

[honest veldt]

ok thanks bro still new to this game

[pallid fulcrum]

Or just do another quest line

If you get fed up

Trying do that one quest

[prime elbow]

yeah, you can just make a premade group and go there manually, if there is something you need specifically

not sure how you managed to get to there when the quests tells you where to go.

[feral geode]

Anyone know why my alt account that i have paid gametime on is saying its a "free trial" or starter edition and i cant access the AH bc of that

[short frost]

it takes up to 3 days to fully unlock all features after game time purchase if the account has been free for an extended period

it's to prevent botters/spammers to abuse the system and then refund the game time

[pallid fulcrum]

Wait so if I buy a sub today i won’t be able to play my lvl 50 characters for 3 days

[fathom ingot]

no just for that specific alt @pallid fulcrum

and its a game time thing not a sub

[pallid fulcrum]

Up to 3 days. Sometimes it's right away, sometimes it isn't. Just fully log out and then back in every so often to check if your account status has been updated

[short frost]

we figured it out in DMs - your boy has 2 bnet accounts with 2 wow accounts in each - so...

https://tenor.com/view/lost-johntravolta-gif-4556555

[pallid fulcrum]

[short frost]

I also learned they call the Argentinian currency ARS which is quite a bully if you ask me...

[pallid fulcrum]

Are death knights still a viable character

[foggy whale]

blood is a fire raid tank

tons of utility this tier

[pallid fulcrum]

All classes and specs are viable

[foggy whale]

all are viable, not all are competitive

[pallid fulcrum]

All classes and specs are viable unless you're doing anything more than +15 keystones and heroic raiding

Thanks once again guys

Everything’s changed since I’ve last played

A good player with a bad spec will outperform a bad player with a good spec

[foggy whale]

mots data is good to look at if you want to look at all the specs on the same playing field

cant do massive pulls in the dungeon, mostly just pack by pack

so it reflects how most of the playerbase plays

[pallid fulcrum]

And everyone isn't

Then learn your class instead of your spec.

Except people do say that because people are stupid

But everyone isn't

Anyone asking what spec is best isn't going to be in those groups where spec selection actually matters

One of those "if you have to ask you can't afford it" situations

And an experienced player will know that whatever class you pick can do the hardest tiers of content if you're a good player

Even prot warriors are at high arena ranks and SV hunters regularly clearing high keys and mythic raid

It was better than BM for months

Opinion rejected, disengaging

how od i get out of this

because i entered normaly now i cant exit :///

[foggy whale]

in order to be allowed to bring an off meta spec to early tier mythic raid you have to be able to outperform the other specs, which is impossible for sv vs mm at most points in gear progression

[pallid fulcrum]

hello anyone?

Because noblegarden is over

But for future reference: any starting town

Doesn't have to be Goldshire

event ended lol

[foggy whale]

probably could start to do early legion raids solo if you are like a guardian druid

[pallid fulcrum]

Just bring a party. It's not hard to get four other people to wanna do a transmog run

HOW THE FUCK DO I GET OUT OF THISSS

i walked in

[foggy whale]

use your hearth

[pallid fulcrum]

and now i cant get out

Dude just hearth out

bruh

im not going back to sw

no ty

[versed thistle]

hey I have a question? Is Shadowlands and Classic the same, I’m thinking of getting into the game

[pallid fulcrum]

nope

[foggy whale]

ok, dont know what to tell you then

[pallid fulcrum]

i just saw someone walk out

when i came

[versed thistle]

mm, as a new player, which one should I buy?

[pallid fulcrum]

umm

retail obv

like

classic

is kinda

[foggy whale]

classic has a niche

[pallid fulcrum]

meh

[pallid fulcrum]

Shadowlands is the current expansion. Classic is a representation of the vanilla state of the game without expansions as it was 16 years ago. Classic is a George Foreman novelty grill game mode, but it comes for free with active gametime anyway

first get to lvl 20

on a trial acc

dont go buy the game head on

its a big risk

cos it costs a lot

You don't "buy" Classic. It's so trivial it comes for free with your subscription

and if u end up not liking it

then

[versed thistle]

Mm ok.

[pallid fulcrum]

just download the game

make a char

play a bit

and see what u think

[versed thistle]

alr thanks

[fathom ingot]

@pallid fulcrum I dont think there is a way out

Im pretty sure hearth was been the only option

or whatever portal you can conjure as a mage or with engineering

[versed thistle]

So I should buy shadowlands?

[fathom ingot]

do you like the game so far?

[versed thistle]

Well I’m gonna start out soo

no not yet

[fathom ingot]

generally you do the trial as said beforehand

then commit to the purchase

[versed thistle]

Alr

[fathom ingot]

if you actually like it

remember that end game is a lot different from the initial questing

[versed thistle]

The trial is for classic?

[fathom ingot]

so its more or less if you think the game has promise to be fun in your opinion

idk if theres a trial for classic

there is for retail

[pallid fulcrum]

@versed thistle Download the game and play the limited access starter version up to 20. If you want to try more, you can add game time or subscribe to the game and play everything EXCEPT for the current expansion and endgame up to level 50, which still includes 16 years of content. At level 50 if you like the game and wanna join the current expansion and endgame content at level 60 then buy Shadowlands

[pallid fulcrum]

No

Classic is a novelty game mode that replicates the game as it was 16 years ago and is provided INCLUDED with active game time or a subscription

[azure reef]

If I have the sub you can play classic as much as you want without any extra costs

[pallid fulcrum]

do i need a group to go to a rated arena/battlegrounds

Yes

[foggy whale]

because rank 4s used to be a ton of gold

[coral rampart]

crafting is an art

and a job

[keen frost]

what happened to the discord logo? or is it just gone for me?

[foggy whale]

blacksmithing been shit for a while

[pallid fulcrum]

Its gone for you

[keen frost]

[pallid fulcrum]

That's why you sell all the other vessels you're crafting

[tranquil merlin]

Just started my free trial and now subscribed

I chose a gnome and monk lol @cobalt flint

[azure reef]

Gnome monk

[peak igloo]

[tranquil merlin]

Hahaha it’s pretty funny to see

It’s my eff it account tho lol

[azure reef]

Gnomes are amusing

But I never touched them when I was alliance

[tranquil merlin]

What did you run with in alliance?

[azure reef]

My mains were worgen, night elf and lightforged dreanei

[tranquil merlin]

How do you get lightforge? I’d like to run my main on that

[azure reef]

Complete the Argus campaign in legion

Just follow a guide

Once u get to Argus it doesn’t take long to complete it

[tranquil merlin]

Say lessssss we getting that

[pallid fulcrum]

Lightforged are badass, so powerful, the racial alone can top raid dps on trash swarms xD xD

[silver kestrel]

Hey does anyone know why I cant get the quest from Morgraine in Icecrown citadel? I have a friendly rep with the ashen verdict and I have show menial quests on

[honest harbor]

what are umbral inks, they sell for a good amount and i got 3

[pallid fulcrum]

Used for inscription

[uneven tundra]

So uhm, I did all torghast layers on my ele, now trying to do them on my SP, but I only got layer 1

Is it cause I switched realm on the ele?

[short frost]

maybe a sync issue?

[pallid fulcrum]

Have ypu done all 8 of that specific wing? Upper reaches, skoldus, soulforge, ect?

[uneven tundra]

no

but i could still do all 8

on the ele

so why can't i on here?

in the beginning of SL before i took a break i did all of them on one wing, then I could do the highest layer of the next wing the next week without ever doing it before

[fathom ingot]

what am i missing? cant find anything online and ive already finished the side questline for laurent

[viral sail]

what are the best DPS classes right now?

[teal quartz]

i see 8

Sinfal not ready apparently?

[teal quartz]

ranged or melee?
rDPS: Boomkin, Affli lock, fire mage, Shadow priest, Ele Shaman (raid) / Boomkin, MM hunter, Fire Mage, Ele Shaman (M+) / no idea pvp, most likely mage, boomkin
mDPS: Windwalker, Unholy DK, Fury warrior, Ret paladin (raid) / Windwalker, Unholy DK, Havoc, Ret pala (m+) / no idea pvp, most likely ret pala, arms warrior, WW monk

[viral sail]

isnt ww monk bad rn in pve?

[fathom ingot]

absolutely not @viral sail

very strong melee spec

[viral sail]

on all of the tier lists ive looked at its been near the bottom

[fathom ingot]

idk what tier lists youre looking at

ww is still very strong

[teal quartz]

not by a
a
LONG shot
WW has stupid burst, CC and mobility. Bypasses armor

[blissful cypress]

How do you get into Ny'alotha because I keep ending up in this stupid lake when I get summoned back in

It's my first time and I am so confused

[honest harbor]

what is generally the fastest pvp queues? ranked arena? ranked battlegrounds? random battlegrounds or epic battleg?

[neon cedar]

you have to do the legendary cloak questline to see the new zone phase

[blissful cypress]

oh

[teal quartz]

umm you just enter? i mean if you started on SL, then there are coupl quests prioir, with Valeera, Magni and Uldumn, but once that's done, you can just enter, I did without cloak, and queue into the raid as lv60 without cloak, only problem, u can't do Nzoth or Carapace

[neon cedar]

"a couple quests" 🤔

[pseudo laurel]

Are lore questions allowed here?

[pallid fulcrum]

Like what?

[pseudo laurel]

Why are elves the only people that can be demon hunters? Are they the only race physically capable of taking the power or are they simply the only ones recruited to do it?

[pallid fulcrum]

Because they're the only ones to have had the training. The night elf Illidari being those that were also victims like him of the Burning Legion during the War of the Ancients, or the blood elves that Prince Kael'thas gave him while they were aligned during Illidan's campaign in Outland

The lore for demon hunters is explained rather thoroughly during the demon hunter starting zone and throughout Legion content

[pseudo laurel]

So it's not an elf physiology thing, it's just that these elves were the only people to have been in the groups that became Demon Hunters? So like, other races could in theory become one if trained?

[pallid fulcrum]

In theory but with the fall of the Burning Legion and Sargeras's defeat, the Illidari don't necessarily have any more motive to make demon hunters other than those already exposed to it. It's some pretty gnarly stuff you need to do to become a demon hunter in the first place

[pseudo laurel]

Yeah this was more about "Could" than "Would"

[pallid fulcrum]

Learning how to become one may also have an elven element, however, as the one who came up with the entire discipline in the first place was himself an elf. Not to mention the inherent arcane nature of elves and their aptitude for absorbing magical energies

[pseudo laurel]

But like, void elves or nightborne at least could probably become Demon Hunters right?

[pallid fulcrum]

The methods for how to become a proper Illidari may only be adapted for elven physiology in addition to the exposure to the forms of training. Anyone else is more than likely to become a warlock, since the access to destructive arcane, fel, and void magics are easiest via those methods

Void elves more likely than not would be against the ideology, and nightborne are for the most part more magically than martially inclined

[pseudo laurel]

It's not just the ideology bit I'm more focused on physically, like, is it possible for any member of that race to become one with the proper mindset.

Even if there are no void elves that would actually want to do it

[pallid fulcrum]

Theoretically you could have something else be a demon hunter, yes, but it would be a very niche exception and for character writing approaches Mary/Gary Sue/Stu territory

[pseudo laurel]

I'm not trying to make a character like that so don't worry about that, was just talking about why certain classes are race locked and was wondering about DH and the other elves.

[pallid fulcrum]

It's a mix of gameplay and lore reasons. The classes available are the ones most likely related and adaptable for each race

[pseudo laurel]

I'd like to see what's possible for more Demon Hunters of other races though. Just something that interests me. Even if they turned into warlocks, with DH-adjacent training they'd be like. melee warlocks with those glaives. That seems neat.

[pallid fulcrum]

🤷

[queen forge]

Things that could fit are

• Nightborne Demon Hunter for the Horde ( because of the Felborne and stuff we saw in Suramar )
• Void Elf demon hunter for the Alliance ( nothing prevent a demon hunter coming back to silvermoon and allying with Alleria, we've seen other race wielding to different kind of cosmic power at the same time )

[fair pier]

Orcs and draenei could also fit being demon hunter

[cursive mason]

Hey guys somebody tell me where i can find the Traveler's Backpack?

[tulip wharf]

hey quick question do I have to hose the mythic to get the great vault rewards

[polar wasp]

Define "hose the mythic"

[cobalt flint]

I think it's meant to be "host the mythic"

[polar wasp]

Then no,doesnt have to be your key

[cobalt flint]

It randomly drops in some areas. But there are much better bags available on the Auction House for not too much gold. Unless you are talking about classic wow.

[eager ember]

Does anyone know - I think this should work - is it possible to save a mythic lockout on my alt, so we can reclear with mains this coming reset, and if we don’t fully reclear return to where we are (sludgefist) next reset (by extending the lockout both weeks on my alt)?

[short frost]

as far as I know the mythic lockouts will be synced.
meaning that if you use your alt's last lockout say at Sludgefist and proceed to kill bosses up to say Generals your alt will inherit this and will present you with a Generals lockout next week if extended.
they way you plan this only works on heroic/normal lockouts

[tulip wharf]

how do I claim this

[agile lagoon]

Wait till the reset

[tulip wharf]

When is reset

[agile lagoon]

Later today

[pallid fulcrum]

is vanilla mining good

cos i already have lvl 200

[short frost]

no

[agile lagoon]

Yes for engi

[short frost]

only for vanilla engi

[pallid fulcrum]

what mining should i do then

apart from sl

for gold

[keen pewter]

SL

Well, I guess MoP ghostiron ore is still a market

But only dumb people buys it

[teal quartz]

Well yeah talk to Valera
, talk to Magni
go to uldum
enter instance
Complete instance
Tall to king ramakaksomething
Make alliance with then

And Nyalotha appears floating in uldum, or valley of eternal blossom

[agile lagoon]

All together takes about as long as the maw lol

[teal quartz]

Maybe longer but for travel time only

[fathom ingot]

With avoidance, does it reduce all aoe damage or are there other conditions/exceptions to what aoe damage gets reduced or not

like I assume stuff like explosive and prideful will have their damage reduced as they're both aoe damage

[teal quartz]

It should? Spaghetti code is one thing but in theory, it should reduce all damage that are not tagged as direct

[agile lagoon]

"Spaghetti code" damn now I'm hungry

[teal quartz]

Someone reported serpent sting no longer works with Wild Spirits, like to solve the legendary problem, they straight up disabled the interaction between serpent and wild spirits instead of changing the extra serpent sting as an aura

[ionic fractal]

Okay. So I just completed the bit with the nightborne where you go back and time and do the mana storm with the EMP and come back and there's fruit on the tree.

How much longer before I start the lockdown questline to unlock Nightborne?

[fast jewel]

I'm looking to join WoW again. Found my old Battlenet account. Want to look at my old account to see if it is worth it or better off to just start over again. Can anyone help me out?

[snow pivot]

I mean that’s really up to you. If you have characters on your old account you like and want to continue, stick with that one. If you want to start completely fresh, by all means make a new account. Also consider any achievements you may have unlocked on your old account. Those will be gone if you start fresh @fast jewel

[fast jewel]

@snow pivot Thanks. I don't even really remember too much. I played on and off for probably 5 years before I moved on. Would getting the epic pack get me up to speed quicker than just keeping my old account?

[pale flare]

hi er just asking but is wrath of lich king and shadowlands related or like is there any expansion i should do before starting shadowlands

like should i do wrath of lich king firs then go shadowlands or nah

[snow pivot]

The only difference between the base, heroic, and epic SL editions are cosmetics and a character boost

[fast jewel]

Yeah, that boost is what I am not sure about. What is the boost? I don't even know what max level is anymore. When I left I think it was like 70-100 or something. What does the boost actually do?

Last played around 2014-15 I think.

[fathom ingot]

max is 60, boost sends you to 48 i think @fast jewel

i mean making a new character is fine, the new intro is great for learning

and getting to 60 isnt exceptionally grindy or anything

[fast jewel]

Really only 60?

Wow I guess it has been a while.

[agile lagoon]

Yes? Most MMOs are around 60 as max level

But you shouldn't boost

[fast jewel]

@fathom ingot Thanks. I don't remember, can I still make a new character if I use my old account?

[snow pivot]

Especially if you haven’t played in awhile, I wouldn’t boost

[fast jewel]

@agile lagoon Why not?

[agile lagoon]

Yes

[agile lagoon]

Read the pins

[fast jewel]

From this tab?

[agile lagoon]

Yes

[fathom ingot]

Basically you only boost if you fully know the story well and what to expect in shadowlands

and you are 100% confident in the understanding of your class

which may vary greatly since when you last left off

[fast jewel]

Thanks. Will do. Any suggestions or info that I should know?

[agile lagoon]

Read guides when you get max

[snow pivot]

Otherwise you end up here asking annoyingly stupid questions that would have been answered had you leveled xd

[fast jewel]

Are those also pinned or online?

A bunch of guys from my Raid clan are switching to WOW, so I can annoy them with those annoying questions. Lol

[snow pivot]

Pretty much any system you may have questions about, there is a guide for it

All it takes is a google search

[fast jewel]

I read online I can view my account without signing up to active account. Anyone know how to do that?

[agile lagoon]

Sign in and click play lol

[fast jewel]

But I read on Battlenet that I could do that without opening the account. Friend said "armory" but not sure how to locate that.

I have my battlenet account open in front of me.

[agile lagoon]

On the wow website you can look up your characters name

[fast jewel]

I can check gear and accomplishments there too? Thanks to everyone for answering all my questions.

[agile lagoon]

Yep

[snow pivot]

Just login to your account on wow’s website and in the drop down menu from your profile you can see all your characters on that account

And achieves, mounts, stuff

[fast jewel]

The Wow website is different than the Battlenet one?

[snow pivot]

Yea

[agile lagoon]

Yea

[fast jewel]

Thanks.

[snow pivot]

Worldofwarcraft.com or something of the like

[fast jewel]

Yeah there now. It auto signed me in from my battlenet stuff.

[fast jewel]

I am on there already and opened my account. What tab do I need to open?

[agile lagoon]

Mobile or PC?

[fast jewel]

pc

[versed thistle]

gobin or night elf?

[agile lagoon]

Horde but not goblin

[pale flare]

still asking but is wrath of the lich king and shadowlands related like should i do wrath of the lich king first then shadowlands or nah

[coral rampart]

wrath expansion stuff is on northrend map

[versed thistle]

i really like the goblins abillites tho

[coral rampart]

shadowlands is new and you should do shadowlands

[agile lagoon]

I think there should be a search bar in the top right. Idk where the tab to view your specific chars is

[fast jewel]

Okay. Thanks for the help.

[pale flare]

ok thanks

[agile lagoon]

Lore wise, yes, actual gameplay wise, not at all

[pale flare]

so gameplay wise shadowlands

lore wise wrath then SL

[agile lagoon]

If you like it go for it, I was trolling when I said not goblin lol, and if you want to go night elf so that

Lore you can read in your free time but if you want to catch up the SL is the way to go

[ionic fractal]

Can anyone help please?

[pale flare]

okk ty

[dense raptor]

So i just got to Item level 185 and i find it really difficult to get gear of a higher item level. how do you get 185+ gear? (except for raids and mythic+)

[agile lagoon]

PvP and renown/story

[dense raptor]

How do i get renown fast?

[agile lagoon]

Dungeons and raids and pvp

[azure reef]

It’s random from pretty much all endgame content

[dense raptor]

Do heroic dungeons give more renown? or should i do normal dungeons so i can do it faster?

[azure reef]

Pretty sure heroics have a better chance that normal

I got most my renown from heroic dungeons while gearing

[dense raptor]

Alright, guess i'll farm some heroic dungeons

What renown level should i aim for?

[agile lagoon]

40

[azure reef]

Enough renown for the cov campaign

[dense raptor]

That's max right?

i finished the cov campaign

[azure reef]

If you don’t care for cosmetics much just aim for the mid 20s

[dense raptor]

I think i'm 25 atm

[azure reef]

Since 30+ renown mainly only gives cosmetic rewards

[dense raptor]

Well, i love cosmetics so....

[azure reef]

You’ll get the rest of your renown when you continue to gear

So not really worth farming past 25 ish

[dense raptor]

Ah ok

[azure reef]

Wasting time when you could be getting better gear

[dense raptor]

but i'm already 25, and i still can't get higher i lvl gear

outside of raids, mythic+ and pvp

[azure reef]

Well 25 I’m pretty sure is enough to complete the cov campaign

Which gives 197 ilv

[dense raptor]

I did

[agile lagoon]

And PvP gives 197 for unrated

[azure reef]

You can use anima to upgrade cov gear to 197 aswell

[dense raptor]

The highest ilv piece i got from the venthyr set was 190 shoulders

[dusk orbit]

hey I just got the game but cant decide what class I should make, i was thinking either mage or rogue are those fun and good?

[dense raptor]

ohhh

where do i upgrade it?

in my sanctum im asuming?

[agile lagoon]

Very

[azure reef]

Both are very good but fun is up to you to decide

[agile lagoon]

Yee

[dusk orbit]

hmm im not sure ive never played an mmo before

[azure reef]

There’s some vendors that sell and upgrade gear ye

[dense raptor]

Alright, guess ill look for them

[dusk orbit]

when I am rogue I can sneak up on people? how does that work

[azure reef]

Ye you can invis and stun

Just sneak around people

[agile lagoon]

You'll get an ability called stealth that makes you invisible to most creatures

[dusk orbit]

is it good for pvp? i might wanna do that later on

[agile lagoon]

Yes

[azure reef]

They are very good In pvp

[dusk orbit]

nice I think i might do rogue

[agile lagoon]

Mage is also very good in PvP because of there good burst

And mobility

[dusk orbit]

which one should i pick for rogue?

[agile lagoon]

Depends

[azure reef]

Pick whatever you like tbh

As a new player you won’t be min maxing

[agile lagoon]

Mainly go for what you like the look of

[dusk orbit]

can i change it later

[azure reef]

For irl money

Ye
