I’ve been grinding out skinning and it’s been pretty reasonable for not being maxed yet
So there’s no way then to remove an enchantment off gear and then put it on another?
Nope. Enchants are one-use items
You're supposed to buy multiples for upgrading
Like, if something says that X enchant is better for rings, you buy enough for both rings and the next few upgrades
Hmmm alright, good to know
Similar to how you buy more than one potion, food, and any other consumable. Just that this consumable just goes on your gear
@prime elbow keep the discussion civil and respect people's preferred gender pronouns.
??? what?
Let's keep the discussion directly relevant to channel's topic as well.
I was, until people jumped me.
But tell me.... link me the exact message i called out someone elses gender pronouns.
You're welcome ^^
???
That was the thing ~~he ~~ she called me out for? Really? Now who's being victimised?! How would i know what gender she is??
You dont even know mine.
It was possible in wod garrison iirc
You were corrected but you kept on going
You got corrected immediately after the first time
Lmao
And muted, rekt
rolled and smoked
So keyword was then, and it’s impossible now I presume?
That must have been what the old info I saw was for
Probably level limited or whatnot
Gotcha, thanks
It wasn't like all gear back then either I think
I know, but I remember someone saying that PvP gear would be far more efficent, by that I mean is 197 Ilvl Aspirant gear better than 200 ilvl raiding gear for PvP for an instance
Yea but with cracking I cant see the game on my steam library and cant get achievements, its a hassle tbh
Also far higher chance of getting malware
No. I said "the game" while talking about WoW, in a conversation about WoW, in a WoW-related discord server
30 days, yes
I see I see
i need help pretty bad
i have this item
it works fine
and i equip this better item i got, and every melee i miss, deal no damage
and it has better DPS and everything, please help 😦
Classic, people that don't know how to play getting beta and now knowing what to do with it XD
that was correct, u helped me a lott , i would have been so frustrated
Yes 197 PvP gear is better than raid gear but PvP gear goes up to 220
anyone know how to farm the nightfallen rep very quick?
If you want it to unlock the Nightborne allied race, you no longer need to be exalted.
no i need to be revered to continue with the balance of power questline
I got to revered just by doing their campaign.
Other that that, world quests, and Withered Army Training scenario, you don't really have many options.
suramar campaign?
That + Insurrection campaign
okay 🙂 ty
I mean, if you're doing everything there in Suramar plus using a Nightfallen contract so WQ's get you rep then you should hit exalted before or by the time you finish the Suramar campaign
Not that you need it still
But yeah
Guys, pre60
How ilvl drops is decided?
Did a dungeon, while I got ilvl98 items, and another group player got 140something I think
Guessing average ilvl
Remember that in normal dungeons, 60's can also queue with <60's, or someone is higher level/ilvl than you and the gear scales differently
Don't worry about anything <60 anyway
You'll get a full set of 197 gear by the time you finish your covenant campaign
Better than what base mythic dungeons drop
I feel kinda overwhelmed getting back into WoW, seems like there is a lot of new systems. Is there any kind of disadvantage to trying out lots of classes.
Any kind of tips as an old player returning?
oh srsly?
thats like a quest you get once reaching 60 and choosing a covenant? how long does it take?
Like two weeks if you actually play
holy moly
How do I recover the old pets and such that I bought from years back? Do I just need to find a mailbox like in the old days?
and thats like a regular quest thingy? kill mobs and talk with npc type of quest?
before that you don't have the covenant at all?
It's the covenant campaign
Yeah but what you actually need to do is like the 50-60 campaign quests? cuz thats a hassle lol
I mean yeah you need to get to level 60 somehow xD
so im in here and my screen keeps flashing green for some reason can someone help?
flashing as in wierd textures ?
did you try switching ingame dx11 to dx12 or vice versa
What class makes the best tank?
hey yall, I live in europe and I noticed there are tons of realms. How important is the population and stuff?
do u guys have low gpu usage in this game?
No, and specially not in Ardenwealde
any advices to raise it up? 😅
Crank the resolution higher? WoW isn't that great at using CPU's with many cores. You still have above 120 FPS anyway.
what is a good realm to start on?
And advice to help a newb get better at dungeons?
WoW is not heavy on your GPU, never has been.
It has always been more heavy on your CPU
And in BFA, New Multi-threaded Optimisations were added to World of Warcraft with a DirectX 12 update
thanks yall for these info, however, I was little bit confused on No. of FPS wasn't high enough (while cpu & gpu not under that much pressure)
I went from a 10th gen i5 to an 11th gen i9 and max graphics to max graphics haven’t really seen a change in performance so…
World of Warcraft has always been far more CPU intensive and prefers higher clock speed versus higher core counts when compared to the performance gains of a GPU.
hmm may i call you?
No
oh
idk how to get back
to horde where the market is
i set my home somewhere else
What tank makes the best tank?
there isnt one @cosmic cypress
🤔
as long it's an actual tank spec, it's a tank
every tank spec has different abilities and whatnot that make them unique and better in certain niches
but that also means overall, there isn't one that absolutely dominates all the others
Awesome, so many options to pick then.
How do I get plundered blade of northern kings?
[Plundered Blade of Northern Kings]
Plundered Blade of Northern Kings - https://www.wowhead.com/item=164334/plundered-blade-of-northern-kings - Live 9.0.5
Its a drop out of those containers which you can buy for 175 Seafarer's Dubloons https://www.wowhead.com/item=173989/jorundall-salvage
You have to check out yourself where to get the Dubloons tho
Gotta spam island expeditions on the right week
Get lucky with a pretty rare drop for the plundered blade
I gave up farming it and just bought it for like 40k
Hm i might just buy it then lol
I am at the point where I must choose a covenant , I am a servivalist hunter any ideas ?
Night Fae
why
Best Cov for all hunter specs
okay ty
Does the 24hour dungeon / raid cooldown still apply to freshly boosted characters?
Yup
anyone else having major lag right now?
If I have parts of the Zandalar Forever questing on different characters, say Nazmir on one and Vol’dun on the other, can I still get Zandalar Forever?
No, Zandalar Forever can only be done on the same character that has all the prerequisites
do you need an active subscription is use Chromie's timewalking thing?
You have to have a single lvl 50 on your acc
ooooh ok. thanks
Oh ffs
God I hate levelling so much
hello, what to do after leveling 50 alt? i have been doing shadowlands on my main, and decided to make an alt but i have been struggling to do any of the world quests, takes legit hour to do, especially as a priest, and at the end wqs dont even give a lot of xp
Quick question for any staff. Is Blizzard planning to have Windowed Fullscreen graphics setting available in TBC classic? It's in current classic but it's not on the TBC pre-patch PTR or beta. Anyone with knowledge of this know?
Fullscreen on TBC PTR is the same than Windowed Borderless
I forgot how to get to kul tiras as horde, where is the portal?
what are the requirements to level up Voldunai, cuz i just did a !@#$ ton of quests from Voldunai?
do i have to be in Vol'dun?
what specialization would yous reccommend for mage? im arcane right now but im kinda thinking about fire. which would be better?
Looking for a solid combat text addon. Anyone have one that they can swear by?
is there any danger to your characters progress if you change race?
No
Can you give soulbound items to your other characters?
no
you can transfer items that are "account bound" via mail or if your characters are on the same server you can send BoE'
as usual
@near comet
Ey im back from taking i brake! do i need to buy shadowlands if i allready bought battle of azeroth ?
You do
i though so 2 but when i tried to buy shadowlands just now it says i allready have it ;o
Then you probably bought Shadowlands at some point and you don't remember it. Maybe you bought a bundle that included both BFA and Shadowlands?
why cant i transmog certain gear?
what gear ?
you can only mog what you can wear for your class unless its cloak/tabard
when do you unlock your covernant?
Once you’ve finished the main shadowlands campaign
how long is that?
from 50 to 60
once you hit 60 you can pick your covenant
if you already have lvl 60 toon you can pick at 50-51 once you finish maw and pick treads of fate leveling
oh okay thats good for alts then
Hey guys im new semi new 2 WoW and i have finally picked a class i want to use
Alliance/Warlock!! Specing into demonolgy
And was wondering if i can get some tips or even someone to show me the ropes
hello is there someone that can help me
i fell of the world when i was doing a quest, but i got this bug that i got disconnected so blizzard moved me but i dont know how to get back to the place where i was before
im currently at dalaran
And where were you before? What quest were you doing?
[The Dead and the Damned]
The Dead and the Damned - https://www.wowhead.com/quest=40740/the-dead-and-the-damned - Live 9.0.5
You were doing the blood dk artifact quest?
yeah so i was already there on the broken shore
yes i guess i needed to get the maw of the damned
but idk how i get back there
You probably need to abandon that quest and pick it up again.
First time I've ever heard of such thing.
Because its an important quest most likely,given its an artifact
Well what does the quest say
Right now
so it says obtain the maw of the damned
that was the only thing i had to do before my dumbass fell of the world and everytime i wanted to get back i got DC
so i searched for it and then blizzard moved me since that was the solution
Have you checked if zeomus is still in dalaran
So when you return to Krasus Landing in Dalaran, is Zeomus there?
nope im now back at krasus landing but no zeomus
Can you go back to the darkstone isle/where the legion portal was
And see if you can still go in
The guy had you fly down from dalaran,to the isle with no loading screens right
It went right from dalaran to down there
yes
Then you can still reach it,tho we dont know if the portal is still active
[Darkstone Isle]
Holy Priest Artifact Weapon: T'uure, Beacon of the Naaru - https://www.wowhead.com/acquiring-tuure-holy-priest-artifact - Live 9.0.5
Wrong one
so but how exactly can i get back to darkstone isle since there is no zeomus only flight master
The one marked with a dot here, probably.
If you jump down from Dalaran and swim there, maybe you'll be able to reach it.
Wrong dalaran
Oh, you are in the wrong Dalaran!
oh shit are there two?
That’s old dalaran not legion dalaran
In game, yes. In lore, it's the same Dalaran at different points in time.

wait but it looks the same LOL
There are slight differences.
so if i use my dalaran hearthstone do i go to legion dalaran or this old one where im currently at
The Legion one.
great
With luck, Zeomus will be waiting for you there.
It looks similar but there is notable differences
yeah i see now it looks almost the same
In "new" dalaran you have a building in the middle instead of the statue and krasus landing is broken and crashed instead of pristine
but i started yesterday with wow so still new to all of this
Also the npcs are lvl 45 instead of low lvl
And textures are better quality.
Wait,if you started yesterday,you have a new account,so why are you not in bfa
🤔
No thats legion content
👀
I would suggest getting an experienced player to help you out,or use wowhead for guides more often
👀
yes i will
Loading screens you get depend on when a particular area was added to the game.
Sometimes a newer expansion will send you back to an older zone and you will see another expansion's loading screen.
I mean,not really,but also you "shouldnt" be there,because the world wont scale properly in your current situation
Ive heard of a few ppl that just went doing other things and then they were like "why am i killing everything in 1 hit" "why am i not getting experience anymore" and similar
Up to level 45, Legion content is fine to do, even if you don't have Chromie.
And if you intend to not subscribe for a while, and stay at level 20, then Legion weapons are BiS.
but is it better to do the "bfa quests" first?
I would recommend new players to start with BFA, least chance to get confused there. But Legion isn't the worst choice in the world, provided you remember to go back to BFA for the last 5 levels.
i will do it after i finished this quest
is return of the four horsemen a quest from BFA?
No. That's Legion.
nvm was on wowhead and saw lich king so its legion
@cobalt flint do u know how i get a quest from bfa again since my only quest i now have is legion\
You probably need to return to Orgrimmar or Stormwind and look there.
thanks ill use hearthstone to go back to stormwind
On the map, you should see various exclamation marks. When you hover over them, you'll see quest names. Look up those quest names on Wowhead. When you find one that has been added in patch 8.0 or 9.0, then that's probably the one.
hello all ive only just started my wow adventure and could use some guidance. ive played other mmorpgs and i main tank in all of them so can anyone help me start my wow tank adventure
how do i see which patch it was added
already see it
my only exclamation mark in stormwind is from patch 5
what did you pick as tank in wow ?
- Look up which classes can be tanks in WoW and choose any of them besides Death Knight or Demon Hunter.
- Do NOT install Azeroth Auto Pilot (AAP).
- Complete Exile's Reach and followup quests until you reach Kul Tiras or Zuldazar.
- You now know enough about the game to choose any class. Play with what you started or switch to another one.
- Do not use level boost.
i havent picked yet i was looking into the best tank class
so for me is it bad if i do legion quests? or does it not really matter
isnt demon hunter the best tank?
paladin has lots of utility and good allrounder
DH is big on damage and good overall
Warrior is a classic style cock and block like in every other mmorpg
DK is bit harder but has nice pulls
Druid is bear ..... thats all im gonna say
DH and Druid look nice to me
pick one and play 😛
how is it that i have. 2 accounts and on one i have the bfa quests and on the other one not
what quests
what level you at
wich account is new or aare they both new accounts
well i started first on one as a panda mage lv 12 but didnt like mage eventually so started new one as a panda death knight which is lv 17 and is the newer one
does race matter as a tank?
@coral rampart do you know how that can and if i can do the battle for azeroth on my newest account
fair fair didnt know if mid max was a thing in wow
you gotta do the intro @mortal scaffold
go to orgimar or stormwind idk if you hrode or ally
im in stormwind and im alliance
The problem with a Demon Hunter, as well as Death Knight, is that they skip the tutorial. That's why I recommend picking another class first and consider returning to them after you learn the basics.
or smt
ah makes sense thank you
oh so thats the reason why i dont have it since i chose death knight
do you then recommend making new character and doing that bfa and tutorial or is it not really neccesary
you can use the portal room to go to bfa
Not strictly necessary, but I recommend going through Exile's Reach and the capital city tutorial at least once. Once you reach Kul Tiras or Zandalar, then you can consider your tutorial completed.
so guess i need to make new character
Go ahead. You can of course return to your Death Knight afterwards.
yeah but also will people play shadowlands even when burning crusade comes back on june 1st?
but wait exile reach i did that once is capital city after that?
tbc wont make SL any less popular
tbc comes out
every single retail player migrates never to be seen again, leading to blizzard shutting down retail WoW
wishful thinking 😄
One can dream 
but is capital city after u finished exile reach
Once you finish exiles reach you are sent to your capital, either orgrimmar for horde or stormwind for alliance
and then u need to finish those quest to finish tutorial?
would you recommend addon?
Depends which addons you are looking for, since there are a lot that do different things
i have no clue 1st time playing aha
Deadly boss mods is always useful for pve content
where is general rakera for the ride of the zandalari mission?
Pawn helps you figure out what gear can be upgrades, tho at max level it’s not always super accurate
just the best general addons i guess for quality of life for a beginner
Well those 2 are a good start
sadge exile reach quite boring but guess i need to play again
so first exile reach then i need to do capital city and when thats finished i did tutorial, does that mean if i make. new characater i can skip it then
no only allied races skip intro
every other race goes from lvl 1
and DH/DK can skip i think
and you need to level to 50 and finish BFA to unlock chromie time to do other expansions from lvl 10
what do you mean with only allied races skip intro
Allied races are a special unlockable race
They start at lv10
If you go to create a character there will be a bunch of races you can’t choose like void elf
Those are allied races
Ohhhh
is pandarian strong i really like it but dont know if its just normal, strong or weak
Races are mostly cosmetic other than minor racials that usually only matter at the highest level of play
So you can go any
thanks and can i go back after the tutorial or is it better to stay playing on that account
Wdym go back?
so i have now a panda lv 17 demon knight i believe what its called
Death knight
Death knight
yes that
but it was recommended i do bfa to start with with tutorial and not legion
Death knights and demon hunters don't get to do Exile's Reach
So you’re asking if you can go to bfa?
Since they're technically "hero classes" that start at different levels
Already told em 
yes so do i stay on my new account i make to play the tutorial and bfa or do i go back and play the legion quests
or can legion quest also after bfa
sorry im really noob lol
Do you mean your character? Because your account is something entirely different
And you can have multiple characters on one account, and multiple characters on different servers
yeah so i mean that i make new character
If you want to
can i do legion after bfa on that character
The default leveling path from 10-50 is in the BfA content
well im new and only did exile reach with my panda mage but then i was like i dont like mage so i was death knight but apparently that skips exile reach and now i mostly have legion quests
are there still new mounts coming up in legion?
After you have leveled a character to 50, you gain access to a feature called Chromie Time that lets you select another expansion to scale its levels to yours for the sake of leveling 10-50 on future characters
@pallid fulcrum so what do you recommend me to do stay playing with my death knight character and lv to 50 or new character and do bfa to lv 50
the page is littlest mountain and there still isnt page for Legion and I'm wondering why
Death knights aren’t recommended for new players so it’s best to play a normal class until you get a bit more knowledgeable but at the end of the day it’s up to you
I strongly recommend making a new character that isn't a death knight or demon hunter, start in Exile's Reach, and then level 10-50 through BfA. You can play your death knight in the future when you're more experienced with the game
ok ill make new panda with different class
also whats big difference between alliance and horde
@pallid fulcrum You want this one now https://www.wowhead.com/guide=3822/lord-of-the-reins-the-complete-mount-collecting-guide
If you are new in this fabulous world called World of Warcraft, read this guide to learn the basics of the game, and some tips to progress ;)
Read
tyty
ooooooookay thanks
but why does that page says comes in patch 9.3?
is there something new still adding in Legion
Idk, we're not even at 9.1 yet
At this rate 9.3 is looking impossible lmao
Would you rather them do it fast or do it right
Pick one
I was just wondering about the reason why it says coming in patch 9.3 for Legion so I was wondering if there was new things still being added for Legion expansion
I’m not even arguing that
Idk, probably adding Legion timewalking
I made a joke that they’re struggling with sl nothing more nothing less
timewalking? what is that?
It's a special event week that scales old expansion dungeons and a raid to current heroic difficulties
Plus timewalking has its own rewards and currency and vendors depending on what timewalking week it is
You can check the ingame calendar for timewalking schedules
oh! thanks =)
They added Warlords of Draenor to the timewalking events last expansion, so it makes sense they'd add Legion timewalking during Shadowlands
Probably a dreadbat or a fancy panthera
There are enough talbuk mounts
inb4 @tight elbow says something about an Illidan mount 😏
owo
UwU
What server is a good population for alliance, us eastern time zone?
If I am reading this right it looks like stormrage, but I don't know.
how do you taunt as druid? they seem to have no aoe taunts
Growl from bear form. Primarily you wanna dive in and just thrash, mangle, and swipe things on 4+ targets
Ok so, i quit because i think the level squish actually ruined the game: nobody goes to low level area’s anymore, if you decide to quest in a area you move out of it in a few levels, you no longer go around the world in a “quest to levelcap”. Its just a fast xp grind to get to shadowlands
I kinda lost motivation because the incentive to explore the world isnt there anymore
You just grind till group finder, then to 50 and go to shadowlands etc
Are you venting or do you actually need help with something
Kinda want a reason to play again
Like, is it all that bad?
Or is there some good stuff from the squish/expansion
Chromie Time lets you select the expansion content you wanna level through 10-50 anyway
If you quit because of the squish you quit for a dumb reason tbh
It's actually been good dealing with the stat bloat
I mean, i liked going from a dirt eating orc to the warlord that ran through pandaria, to the guy who ran through northrend etc
"World exploring" as the meta kinda died in 2007 when tbc came out,
And id argue chromietime was very beneficial for the game because it allows you to go through the entire story of a continent rather than do half a zone and go "woops, time for wod"
The leveling speed is still the same--all the numbers got squished. It's still the same amount of time and progress to level, plus you get to play through more of an expansion's content now via Chromie Time than you would have leveling before
And with party sync and all of the other various rewards behind old content it's still worth doing
Also,if you want to explore the world,you know you can talk to an npc and get your xp cut off so you never level
And can explore as much as you want
That too
You can still--without Chromie Time--play through old zones within level ranges and if you're really dedicated to finishing them before moving on you can cut xp like Dafire mentioned
I'm thinking if you quit because of the stat squish you quit for some other reason and are just scapegoating
Again,"endgame"/max lvl content being the focus of the game has been like that since tbc released.
So it is only smart they let you get there quickly.
And there's still nothing stopping you from going back and doing the content anyway at max level
Hell, there are multiple NPCs in the Shadowlands who have very strong words to say if your character in particular was responsible for their death
Yea, maybe i kinda just got mad or misunderstood and quit, i legit bought that 70€ edition and quit when i reached the arena(that gladiator zone)
I played launch and for 3 days lol
That is pretty sick
Yeah, you didn't even finish the leveling campaign
So you can't even say you didn't like Shadowlands because you haven't even caught up with the first patch content, let alone the leveling campaign
True, i just kept maddening myself about chromie time, i thiught it split wow in pieces to expansions, and i didnt see anybody in the world so i kinda just got sad
I leveled a character through Pandaria and still saw people
Hm
Layering is used to make servers dont crash from too many ppl on them 😂
Hell, even questing in Stranglethorn I saw people
So "empty layers" happen often
I do miss running around healing people and doing those quests... ah fuck it FIRE UP THE FORGE
Don't use uninformed anecdotal self-imposed assumption making as a basis for making decisions, maybe
might aswell renew
👀
Can always get a new guild
Thanks for this, il give it another go!
Mhm
so.. im very new to the game and i entered team dungeons, and everybody left because i was too weak for them, and i dont know how to leave it so im stuck
I need some people to have fun with anyway 😄
I think if you log out and on char select you press “ switch realm” you can see it
Im on ammagan?
That board god thing from the craul
Agamaggan
Damn i cant type that at all :p
Can anyone help me with getting some holy water from Strath tonight? im zandalar tribe server
Sounds like a question for #classic-wow
do dots generate threat?
I mean, if someone poisoned you, wouldnt you hit him?
I’m pretty sure dots do generate threat however if you’re talking about retail dot threat doesn’t matter
Since threat barely matters
How do i turn off these action bars above the spells? bartender4
Hello i'm looking for help to farm royal jelly on serv Archimonde pls
Youd have to turn off those actionbars but i dont use bartender so i cant help there
how do i turn off them?
Should be in bartender settings i think
Theres nothing in the settings. what action bar addon do you use?
I dont use bartender so i cant help you
There def is some settings in b4 to disable those, but I also don't use it
bartender doesn't even have a general settings tab
what action bar addon do you guys recommend?
thats the art bar
Yes?
do you know what an art bar is?
so how does the art bar relate?
where can i repair my stuff? im currently in tiragarde sound
it is NOT an action bar
Any Blacksmith
it doesn't have any buttons
xD
where?
i cant find one, and one i found was hostile
Click that magnifying glass next to your minimap and check the townsfolk
thx
its works only for minimap, right?
Yes
well, thank you
what do you even mean?
The Blizzard Art bar can be turned off in Bartender
And Baifeng even showed you how
That's not what i meant
Then what do you mean?
^^^^
I think the problem is how you enabled more bars and set them to vertical instead of horizontal
Or probably not
those are the default bars
Try disabling some of them
I've been using Bartender for two expansions now and I've never seen this
Must be
Blizzard doesn't allow so many bars
Bartender does
The maximum you can have on WoW is 4 bars
It must be a Bartender issue
Have you reloaded UI?
you are forced to reload...
tried disabling ALL addons yet?
could try resetting all cvars and stuff
just looking for people to play with
anyone knows why the region is not showing next to the game on the launcher?
cant seem to be able to change regions
seems like a really weird issue
wow region is selected in game
also pretty sure you have to own the game in that region
actually strike that first part
its entirely the second thing
you need to own and have a wow account for that region for it to show up in the launcher
you cant just switch regions
@gloomy marsh
Yeah go into your battle net account management and add a new wow starter edition account with the region you want
Then you can select it in blizzard launcher
Is it still possible to complete the warlord gold challenge
should i switch from arcane mage to fire mage? any ideas which would benefit me and anyone i would play with most?
trying to maximize dps
like the dungeon challenge stuff?
or - something else
oh
[challenge warlord: gold]
Challenge Warlord: Gold - https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=8899/challenge-warlord-gold - Live 9.0.5
yeah no - thats unobtainable
can u transfer from new player realms for free or is it always paid, cause it seems that new players realms actually suck
You can always make a new character on another server, however. And you might have a better go with one now that you know more about the game!
thats pretty stupid, why is it even tagged for new players
How can you upgrade campaign gear?
Different upgrade tiers are available as you complete your covenant campaign, and then you upgrade the individual pieces with anima
theres an npc next to the npc that sells duplicates
near the raid gear npcs
What realm are you on (also Classic or Retail)?
pretty sure new player realms are retail only
@languid crane retail , turalyon or whatever. Doesnt show if it’s populated or not just says new players.
Should i reroll or is it gonna be fine? Cant find stats online
Not sure about that realm. My realm (Daggerspine) is classified as new, and it's been great
Found some, it says it’s connected to doomhammer, and has 30k players
Not sure what’s connected means, can you just go from one to another or is it just for modes that you queue for?
Some servers are so small that they allow characters in connected servers to join the connected server's guilds or trade items and whatnot
They basically act as one server (when they're connected).
So what is the problem on that realm you're having? @gloomy marsh
I just started and it would suck to not have players to play with later on
And why are alliance’s numbers so pathetic on EU
Holy fuck everyone is a horde
Oh you're in the EU. Yeah I have no idea what the pop ratio they have sorry 😦
Though when it comes to PVP you'll have less of a queue (if you're into PVP that is).
Looking at servers’ ratios, it’s so bad wth
The population is overwhelmingly high to one of the factions
Don't count half of the blood elf population and numbers tend to balance out
I wouldn't trust the websites that claim to have WoW pop
I like my server because even though it's Horde-leaning, it's still closer to even on both (especially when you ignore half of the blood elves)
I am looking for something a bit even really
take it with a grain of salt. Blizzard gutted the main way these sites would get pop numbers (through Auction House sales), which can't be found anymore because they restricted the API.
I'm NA not EU or I'd recommend mine--even though my server still has plenty of euro players
But all high pop servers are overwhelmingly towards horde

It's one or the other, but that's usually just because someone's favorite streamer, talking head, or mythic world first guild they'll never join is on a particular faction
lol pretty much, though it's almost impossible to tell the real numbers now.
I balance out my faction as much as possible though I do tend to lean towards the Horde as I like its races more
Id for sure try to find a medium faction server by asking around
Are they gonna nerf blood elves lol
well they haven't for 15 years... doubt they going to start now
The thing is i dunno what’s a good population for this game. Top servers have 25k and like medium has 4k
Well I guess technically they did nerf their racial ability awhile back...
But most people play them I think for their looks.
Theres nothing to nerf
Goblin has the best racials anyway
My server is a low or medium I think, good population. High populations are just annoying
The fact that it’s way too popular is a reason to nerf lol
Its the fact that they are Helves/Belves.
again, those numbers arent accurate
There is literally nothing to nerf
they havent been accurate for a few years now tbh
It isn't an issue of racials
you want a high pop server
Its the preference for the race itself
and outside of that, its kind of a crap shoot
faction balance really only matters if you are doing pvp
and even then, it will do some sharding/cross realm group finder stuff
People need to branch out a bit, I'm glad for the new blood elf customizations but a lot of the characters look the same
so it REALLY only matters for high end pvp or RBG
Ppl just like how blood elves look?
Mmm yes, Orcs and Belves look a lot alike, mmm yes
xD
Yes
Too many people would rather be "pretty"
.???
Specifically talking about characters as in blood elves
Should've been more specific there
Blood elves aren't even that pretty
Have you seen Zandalari?
Belves > Ztrolls
I mean just look at all of the people playing vulpera
Sweats
Vulpera have best totems
They are cute totems
Ohhh
Allied race wise I definitely see a lot of void elves
I don't have a blood elf but I do have a void elf, wonder if it counts as one then haha
I love the Panda Totems
Goblin totems best actually
Gumball didn't know you were a goblin type of pal
Goblin best race
Once you go goblin it's all you'll be gobblin'
Oh GOD
Is there a mod to reorganize where everything shows up on your screen (chat box, skills, etc)? Also looking for a link to show BFA questline so I can work on unlocking Horde races. Would appreciate if someone could post a link for it
I have 3 human toons, 1 NE, and one dark iron dwarf (going for racial abilities mainly).
I've got one of each core race
I have erm 5 Horde, 4 Alliance
6 and 6, one of each class. Plate and cloth wearers on Alliance, mail and leather classes on Horde
But my main is Horde
Nice
I'm waiting for allied races until I make my last 3 characters for now
Need a druid, demon hunter, death knight
Doubt demon hunters will get new races so probably will just do whichever faction has less characters
God I hope not
too bad the 2 new elf races can't be DH
No lore reasons
Might as well start rolling out orc paladins
I wish Nightborne could be em but Illidan isn't making any more
Oh Gumball question
We have cow pallies.... @pallid fulcrum so...
Why can't Lightforged Draenei be monks?
There's a lore reason going into explaining that all through WotLK dialog soooo
Tauren paladins and priests are already explained from the expansion before they came about
Sorry, but I need this.
N o
Y E S
Bad panda
You already got DKs, isn't that enough edge?
NO

Next hero class will be extra extra edgy
oh my cringe....
Ion did say that something we face in SLands might just lead into a new Class in the next xpac
Whered he say that??
Watch the next hero class be a gun bunny
Cause tinker class!!!!
Back when Slands was in Alpha/Beta
God no
Please
I'd rather see more options for races and classes that we already have before we get new crap
It makes lore sense!
Its the last class from warcraft 3
Tinker can be a ranged class
We really don't need new classes... they have a hard enough time balancing the ones we have.
Because people are always going to ask for the new hotness and then when the next hotness comes out they'll just be asking for another newer hotter hotness because people are greedy and don't know what they want or appreciate what they have
But yeah doubt new classes would work given Legion content
What about that race on the load screen that looks like a snake person?
Okay slow down with the MiB references
Sethrak?
xD
Love Sethrak
Okay but I'm not wrong
Don't see them coming in the current expansion though
That would be cool to see as a playable race
Enough snake variants to work with as templates
Emeni is a Sethrak, but otherwise it wouldn't make sense
I think that if we do go back to azeroth for another expansion we could see them
Like we just got TEN new race options with the last expansion and then new customization options during this one AND STILL people are just like "MORE MORE MORE GIMME GIMME GIMME"
I think people are just excitable as it brings a lot of new possibilities onto the table
do murlocs in exile's reach drop potions and weapons? or is it hard coded to just be the cheap junk
I think people are just addicted to their own sycophantic hype trains
sometimes--but don't worry about it
A class like a cavalier/lancer would also be intersting to see
You mean paladins?
@pallid fulcrum yeah i know just a quick question
No, I mean like mounted combat
Shouldn't be worrying about grinding out drops on Exile's Reach. Just quest and read
That's been tried many times before and can't be implemented correctly
Busts pvp to no end. Enough people already complain about the vehicle combat in epic bgs
Am I just silly or do I chose my covenant when I'm done the stories in each zone? I'm just about to start in Revendreth
You choose your Covenant after you've reached lvl 60 and completed the entire lvling campaign
You choose after you finish the leveling campaign
You're almost done as it is, no worries
gotcha, thanks
I figured. Ive been trying to read, im like im either stupid or just way too tired 😂
Choosing your covenant is a quest itself so you won't miss it unless you're willfully not paying attention
Hey, I'm having trouble unlocking the void elf. I am trying to accept the "uniting the isles" quest but Khadgar is not where he is supposed to be. I am level 45 so not sure what I'm doing wrong
The phase might be blocked due to another quest phase in progress--like the other order hall members and Khadgar standing on the flight platform waiting to open the Broken Shore content. Just do that first to get it out of the way and he should be there
Im not sure how to fix the quest phase
I only have 3 quests and they are in different continents
but yeah they arent on the flight platform
do i need to buy shadowlands or smth
Does anyone’s addons/interface ever reset every now and then. I’ve been experiencing this for the past couple weeks where my non-instance rarity mount attempts will reset and then my Shadowlands UI will look all goofed up and I have to uninstall and reinstall that to get it back to what I want, and then other small addons will reset some settings
That has nothing to do with it. Look up the quest on wowhead and see if anyone in the comments has anything to say about it
Too many UI addons can do this. If /reload command doesn't help fix errors, disable all of your addons and then only enable a few at a time to check for conflicts
Okay thanks
THERE ARE TWO DALARANS???????
Yes.
how is warlock for raiding and pvp?
can't speak for raiding, but they're a real pain to deal with in PvP - fear, dots etc are all annoying to play against
so im level 16, i got very weak armor and weapons, where can i find or buy stronger ones?
Just keep leveling. Nothing at your lvl matters. It'll just be replaced within a couple quests
anyone has ever experienced the disappearance of one of their server where all their characters lays after coming back for a long time?
Like, I cannot find the server or any of my characters.
any way to level up more quickly as a hunter? im tired of completing quests for 300-1000 exp
If I didn't own Shadowlands, what would happen at level 50? Could I continue through to 60 doing any content I wanted to?
No. You would be stuck at level 50.
Ah ok, good to know. And that will generally happen with every new expansion? The level cap will be raised, but you can't get to it unless you own the new content
Yep, that's how it worked since 2007.
Ummm. Quests should be giving you so much more. Where are you? Are you a new player?
nvrmind, i traveled around village, and got some nice quests, im lvl 20 now and ill continue my adventure after buying the game cuz its amazing
Are you in Kultiras or Zandalar? owo
Kultiras
At level 20 there should be no zones that are too low level for you.
Okay, was just checking to make sure you're in the right area
can i make progress towards unlocking horde allied races with an alliance character?
Some yes, some no
Is vulpera one of them?
No
dang
well i'm glad i know that in advance
Alliance doesn't have access to the storyline needed
Hi i need some help regarding wow heads website, im working on a school project and im making a website about wow and wanted to include a search bar were you can find the item you searched for like on wowhead and for that i need wowheads API-key that i havn't found, so i can display the data found on their site
i have this but im not sure if it's the correct one
This is not the right channel
what channel should i use? the one above
why would you need the API,just make a searchbar that works by word-matching
and yes this isnt the right channel
Got 3 of an item called Rotten food. If i can sell it off It would be enough for me to get a token. is it actually worth as much as websites say?
Are you talking about this? https://www.wowhead.com/item=168786/rotten-food
yes
Its worth 3 gold
says 42k per thing
its something from blingtron so its probably not that expensive
Sry sell price is 2 gold not 3
I'm not sure what exactly is telling you it's worth that much, but as far as I am aware, it's junk, only to be vendored.
possible people are putting it on the AH as a joke
i always suggest to look at the "amount sold in the last week" portion of TSM or other sites
in these cases
Hi everyone, I'm looking to start WoW and wanted to play as a healer.. I've been looking at guides and YouTube recommendations for a while now, but still can't make up my mind. Any recommendations on what's easy to play (pick up) and rewarding from your experience?
Each healer has a different play style. You would have to find the one that fits you best. You can do the class trial and after the tutorial give the healer specialization a try
the "easiest" and "most stereotypical" """healer""" spec
is definitely holy priest
you press button,it do the heal,
but i'd advise against trying them out and seeing whats most satisfying to you
resto shaman I think is the most fun one
arguably one of the easier ones as well
tons of utility and output
Agreed
It's gonna be a different answer for a lot of people. My sister thinks mistweaver monk is the easiest healer spec, herself
Playstyle really is key
Its harder to deal either burst as resto shaman but you have plenty of utility to deal with it. Its mainly just which to use lol
gumball sister is canon,pog
??? I have 7
I like mw monk but mana kinda hurt it this xpac
😔
Damn that's a lot
Anywho
i'm torn between a resto druid (love the concept) and a Holy priest (love the powerful aoe)... need to check out some resto shaman guides (honestly wanted to make a Worgen, and cant worg and shaman at the same time)
i've only heard nightmare stories of being only guy with like 7 sisters
consider this: if you go druid,you can tank and dps anytime, if you go priest,you have 2 specs that are healers
Try em all. I'm biased towards shaman so that's me hyping it lol
You're really gonna have to try each one. There might be a hidden gem you don't realize is your favorite playstyle for healing
I knew one person who was a resto druid for a decade, and after he swapped to discipline priest he never looked back
thanks all!
Not sure if this is the right section for this question, but is there a addon that lets you put text on top of a button (I want to put it on top of a macro) similar to how Weakauras lets you?
Or is there a way to do use Weakauras with a macro?
I mean macros put the text on top of a button lol
It does? That's not showing up for me. I'll check my settings, thanks.
The text is usually the name of the macro
It's showing up as a text bubble when I mouse over it, but its not visible on top of the button all the time.
probably weakauras can do it
if i reach lvl 50 am i going to be locked out of bfda content? i want to compleat bfa befor i start shadowlands
no
you wont be able to queue BfA's LFD if you hit level 51
but you can lock XP if you want
ah ok thank you i was worried about the dugeons because i know some of them are needed for ther sotry line
You won't be able to queue for them
im going to lock my xp at 50
Do you have a idea how to? I'm trying to use this marco (which i think i fucked up on 😅 ) /castsequence reset= 9 [@targetstarget][harm] Power Word: Death,Purge the Wicked,Power Word: Solace,Penance,Mind Blast,Mind Sear,Smite,Smite,Smite
Reverse Harm - https://www.wowhead.com/spell=287771/reverse-harm - Live 9.0.5
Just make a text box weakaura
That will always show the text you want to see
Can someone see why this macro isn't working? /cast [nopet,harm][nopet,@targettarget,harm]Shadow Word: Death,Purge the Wicked,Power Word: Solace,Penance,Mind Blast,Mind Sear,Smite,Smite,Smite
Thanks
If the spell incurs a global cooldown, you can't have the whole sequence cast with a single button. You might be looking for /castsequence
I see thankyou so much.
I don't believe you'll be able to queue at 50. I don't remember tho.
You can queue for normal BFA dungeons at level 50 and are mixed in the same pool with sub-50 people. At least if you don't own the Shadowlands expansion, but I don't think that matters.
quickly logged into a level 50 to verify @tight elbow

how do i turn back into a human if i am a werewolf
wowhead item DB is it down, everytime I search for an item or mount it comes up with Server Error
You have a racial ability called two forms. You can only be a human out of combat.
There is a spell in your spellbook
Thanks guys
whats the fastest way to end game as im getting really bored with questing?
Questing is
^
Dungeons take longer if you're not a tank/healer
im a tank
What class/spec?
druid/guardian
so i started yesterday playing wow, i got recommended to play exile reacht etc, now im in boralus lv 20 with no quests, i finshed i think the one with Flynn playing BFA btw, do i just level till 35 so i get the war campaign?
or is there something different i need to do
@mortal scaffold Question: have you bought subscription already? If yes, you find some sidequests to do to reach level 25. Then you return to the map in the Harbormaster office and go to Drustvar.
yes i bought subscription + shadowlands
Then you do sidequests. There should be plenty to choose from.
Hi, when I enter a raid or a dungeon, through LFG, I can't cast half of my spells, do you know why ? (only fix = alt + f4)
thanks @cobalt flint
What class are you? Which role (damage/healer/tank) were you assigned? What is your normal specialization?
I'm Dh Havoc (damage)
i just did a raid
i mean dungeon
how do i leave it
nvm found it
i just did a dungeon but now all my attacks on 1 2 3 etc are different
Interesting. So you see spells there on the bars, but they are unusable. Does your game freeze completely? Can you walk around, but cannot logout?
how did this happen
also it seems like im now more a tank
oh wait
it is my specialization
it changed
when i did a dungeon
I just get out of my raid, and the same happens, can't do single target attacks, weird
Yep. If you queue and you are selected as healer or tank, your specialization will automatically switch to match (assuming you are damage dealer in the open world)
But the game is completely fine
Is the max level 60 or some bs now? I haven't seen ANYONE over 60
yes i chose to do that since i wanted those 16K exp lol
It is 60.
Wtffffff
@fallen elbow you need to go to specialization and talents (N) and chose the one you had before
Thats so stupid
What exactly is stupid about it?
Its too easy to max out now
@cobalt flint can u tell me more about the new update, i heared its like coming in 2 weeks but you have to chose on wich server or something you want to play right
@cobalt flint this prepatch then u need to chose wow classic or burning crussade classic in the blizzard client
and what should i choose
If you are talking about TBC Classic, people over at #tbc-wow should know more. The way I understand it, you choose to continue playing the old classic, or TBC for each of your characters. Unless you pay extra, then you can play on both at the same time. You cannot freely choose your new server: each server is copied on prepatch launch day, and one copy stays in Classic, and the other moves on to TBC.
Should i purchase the subscription or would buying the heroic edition for shadowlands do the same thing?
so since im new i only have one character should i then buy that copy thing
The number of characters that you have is irrelevant. What you pay for is the ability to play both copies of your character, both on Classic servers and on TBC servers. If you had more characters, you could choose some of them to stay in Classic, and some in TBC,and you wouldn't need to pay for that privilege.
I cannot advise you much on what you should do, I don't play classic.
but classic is the one ur starting with and then u can go to things like shadowlands
is that how it works
No!
well what do you mean then with i dont play clasic
why does bllizzard need to make everything so complicated lol
Classic is completely separate from Shadowlands. I suspect you never actually launched classic, in which case this whole Classic/TBC thing doesn't concern you at all.
now ur sayting it nope
i play on the world of warcraft
not wow classic
my bad
Yeah. Then you don't need to worry about it.
so how does it work for me then since i dont play wow classic i just have to pay for the burning crusade expansion and thats it?
If you don't play Classic, you don't need to worry about the Burning Crusade, at all.
That content was added to the game in 2007. You can go there today on Shadowlands. Classic is for people who want to experience this again, as if it was the highest level content.
oh thanks for the information!
Should i purchase the subscription or would buying the heroic edition for shadowlands do the same thing?
heroic doesnt have gametime
Heroic edition gives you only 30 days, I believe. If you want to play for longer, you would need to buy it sooner or later. And I'd recommend just starting with subscription without Shadowlands, reach level 50. And then, if you like the game, get Shadowlands.
heroic doesnt have gametime vengir
thats the epic edition
but otherwise i agree
buy the sub, not shadowlands
play to 50
alright thanks guys ❤️
then you can buy shadowlands if you want
I thought so. I believe someone mentioned heroic giving time, but they could be wrong.
Ah yes. Don't buy Epic edition if you only care about gametime. It's an added bonus on top of all that cosmetic stuff.
how do i basically gain better gear? dungeons?
Finish your covenant campaign and hoard anima and you have a full set of 197 gear. Then hop into mythic dungeons, raids, and pvp for more gear
anyone know if huokan boosting is legit
What do you do with valor again?
Upgrade lower ilvl mythic gear to higher ilvl, if you're doing keys that drop better gear and need to catch older gear up
K
why am i doing the zalandari mission rn
i remember\ i played a bit and i was doing bfa before
also i dont have a flying mount how the hell am i supposed to go to the top of the pyramid \
Do you mean the war campaign or just the questline?
Uh there are stairs I think
made a new character and i did exile's reach and all of a sudden i am doing zalandari campaign
That’s intended
i played like 2 months ago if not less and instead of this, i played BFA
how did they change it
They changed it months ago
During the Shadowlands Pre-patch, which completely reworked leveling
bruh i swear i did BFA and not zalandari before
Zandalari is BFA for Horde
BFA=Zandalari
BFA for Alliance is Kul Tiras
whats the quest where the girl in the boat
That’s Alliance
i was playing alliance? weird
okay where are the stairs to the top of the pyramid
its a hidden lift
There is an elevator inside.
Any DH havoc spec players about and know a lot about them?
i got into a portal accidentally in zalandari how do i get back lmao
*Zandalar
