wow-help

[vale hawk]

In WoD? Yes

[pallid fulcrum]

alright, ty again

[vale hawk]

Every quest, every bonus map objective, etc

If you get a quest taking you to another zone (aside from Ashran, do all of that) just go there and take a FP back to your garrison

[pallid fulcrum]

thank you, much appreciated

am i allowed to talk about other mmo's in this discord?

[vale hawk]

#no-wow-discussion

cuaji, please, just shut up.

[hasty spear]

<@&299347348847329281> i think thats enough

Rule 5

[umbral saddle]

Weird

[hasty spear]

thanks mods

[pallid fulcrum]

@vale hawk whats your favorite subclass for hunter

[vale hawk]

Spec? All three, but I probably play BM and SV the most

[pallid fulcrum]

spec, my bad

[vale hawk]

This is more of a #retail-wow question though lol

[pallid fulcrum]

what does retail wow mean

[vale hawk]

It's the channel for regular topics and convo about the current game that aren't questions about seeking help. Retail refers to the game, live, in the current patch

[pallid fulcrum]

ahhh okay, ty

[vale hawk]

As opposed to Classic or TBC Classic, etc

[spiral charm]

what's the highest ilvl you can get as a casual solo player

when you finish a table mission on the app, does the loot automatically go into your bags?

[crimson pike]

Yes

[azure reef]

If nothing but solo content then 252

[spiral charm]

tyty

what about dungeon/raid finder? assuming i only use the finder tools and dont use custom groups or guilds or anything

[azure reef]

Both lfr and lfd reward lower than 252

Tho on timewalking weeks u can get 259 raid gear from the weekly

[hallow bolt]

So I accidentally sold one of my weapons on my Enhancement Shaman.. I couldn't find it in the buyback tab, and it's not listed on https://eu.battle.net/support/en/restoration/select-item. Do I just accept my fate at this point?

[fervent bone]

what item

if its a piece of gear you can 99% get it back

[hasty spear]

sold one of my weapons

[fervent bone]

ah

yea then refresh the restore tab a bit till it shows up

[hallow bolt]

Alright, thanks

[spiral charm]

this might be an obvious question but whats the best app for addons?

[bronze bison]

heh just bought the game,... i have no clue what im doing

[keen pewter]

curseforge

[keen pewter]

Play the tutorial (exile's reach)

[spiral charm]

tyty

i heard you can buy to renown 60, is this only on alts?

very basic question ik but besides world quests, how does one get anima?

[azure reef]

basically all endgame gives it

dungeons, endgame quests like callings, raid

weekly dungeon quests from oribos

weekly zm/korthia quests

[velvet sparrow]

WoWup w/ the standalone Curseforge app

[hollow heart]

hey, one question regarding cross faction
by default it isn't enabled in RDF ( random dungeon finder )
but what if I go in party with a friend who is ally and then try to queue? would it work?

[spiral charm]

are lockboxes any good? ive probably got quite a few lying around banks since ive never levelled a rogue

is it worth levelling a rogue just to open lockboxes i get? (plus i lowkey wanna level one anyway)

[hasty spear]

you can let any other rogue open them for you

when you open a trade there is a spot on the bottom for items that wont get traded. just put it in there so they can interact with the item. they should be able to unlock it right there and then you can take them out again. i unlocked a bunch of Boxes for randoms a many times

[hasty spear]

nope

[cyan thicket]

If you level your own rogue too you can pickpocket some neat toys yourself and heavy junk boxes for the Insane title.

[spiral charm]

ty both for the advice

unrelated new question

im halway through the venthyr campaign (late ik lmao) and havent done any of the chains of dominion campaign. im also about to hit renown 44. is it worth switching to chains and doing the first four chapters of that to get flying?

i figure thats probably gonna work out quicker than doing the venthyr campaign without flight

are there any renown-gates on the chains campaign i should know about?

[steady halo]

Revendreth is a pain to get around in without flying. It'd be best to earn flying

At this point, most gates have removed

[spiral charm]

aight so i can just hit renown 44 and spam through the chains campaign?

is that just more straight-forward quests i can mindlessly do, or does it have dungeons or anything like that?

[steady halo]

Should be pretty straightforward. I believe each covenant has a dungeon to do somewhere along the chain, but they should be easy to PUG at this point

[spiral charm]

imma sound like a noob here but 'pug'?

[steady halo]

Pick Up Group--using the LFG tool

[spiral charm]

ohhh tyty

[small meadow]

Does this happen to anyone else?

I finished all the quest for the campaign but the bar doesn't seem to be going away

[hasty spear]

thats because its not supposed to go away... is it?

[small meadow]

They went away on my other account

[vale hawk]

You're in Revendreth, in your sanctum

[hasty spear]

im checking on mine right now

[small meadow]

It happens outside of it too

[vale hawk]

It's going to show up while you're there

[hasty spear]

i can see mine even in Orgrimmar

[small meadow]

On my Ice Mage it doesn't show

[hasty spear]

Ah i see why. i had a calling or whatever those quests are called active. dismissing it made it go away

it acts as a quest category you can expand with the button on the left side. it should go away once there are no quests

[small meadow]

Ah alright

Thank you

[round dome]

Is it possible to type in a quest ID and get back the corresponding quest name (e.g., in an AddOn, at WoWhead, somewhere else). Thanks.

[vale hawk]

Try wowhead

[round dome]

I tried wowhead. Search does not seem to return anything for Quest IDs. Did you have something else in mind for me to try at Wowhead?

[keen pewter]

Just do what you got told last time you asked

[vale hawk]

Entering it into the achievement tracker or quest completion tool

Oh this is a repeat? Lame

[round dome]

If you're talking to me about doing what I was told the last time I was asked, I asked days ago and I can't find my question (or a response) in the log.

[keen pewter]

If it's a quest just replace the string after the =

wowhead.com/quest=YourQuestID

[round dome]

Thanks!

[keen pewter]

the /name is what is called a "slug"

It just makes the url more handsome

But it doesn't really add anything to the url

[round dome]

Intervencion, if you would, please tell me how you were able to search the previous chat logs to find my previous post and the response to that post.

[vale hawk]

Discord has a search function

Look at the top right, the 🔍

[keen pewter]

What Gumbo said, yeah

[round dome]

Ok. Sorry for the question but the first time I tired using the search I typed "rwojcik" and there were no results. The second time I tried typing "rwojcik" (after your "Discord has a search function" response), it returned both new and old results. Anyway, thanks for your help!

[hollow zephyr]

i have thi sbug where everytime i'min shallow water i instantly go into first person view under water. (in shallow water like knee deep) anyone rhave any foxes for this?

[buoyant summit]

Does someone know what addon this is? https://gyazo.com/3e10103c20c2f07e4fb98ac807b63622

[fervent bone]

quartz

[hallow bolt]

I think I've managed to softlock my Necrolord covenant. I joined the covenant in Oribus and flew over to Malxraxxus. I was met by Draka who'd introduce me and show me the area. Just as I started the event, my queue for battleground popped, so I joined. Now that I'm back, everyone's there to cheer me on, but Draka is nowhere to be seen, so I can't progress..

I've tried logging out and back in again, as well as leaving the zone and coming back, but it's still the same thing

Never mind, I abandoned the quest which reset the whole thing

[buoyant summit]

thx

[twin bobcat]

anyone know why the power within quest might not be appearing? I completed all the requirements that wowhead says I should have (double checked with quest completionist addon)

[vale hawk]

Relog and make sure you're tracking trivial/low level quests in the minimap 🔍 menu

[twin bobcat]

its been 2 days, I already did both those :S

[spiral charm]

has the shadowlands story finished now or is there more to come? like has the big finale questline/cinematic been released yet?

[vale hawk]

There will be a pre-patch event, ofc

[hasty spear]

yeah shadowlands is pretty much over.

[weary rover]

I have some issues that started yesterday that are preventing me from using Battle.net.

errors:

1- Yesterday when I went to enter Battle.net it was saying "Battle.net agent fell asleep".

2- I tried to uninstall and install again and your site, more specifically the battle.net download site "us.battle.net" does not open, it seems that it is not possible to access this site as it took a long time to respond and the error "ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT", the problem is not only on my computer but also on my cell phone, to see the site I had to turn off the Wi-Fi on my cell phone and turn on the 4G.

3- When trying to install battle.net through the configuration I already had on my PC, it gave the error "I can't connect to Battle.net Internet services" "BLZBNTBTS00000028".

4- When I tried to open the game, it kept saying "Updating the Battle.net agent" and the update did not start. I've tried opening the file directly from the game and nothing either.

Can anyone help me? 😦

[spare oar]

Does anyone have a good video guide on how Discipline plays? Could use for both PvE and PvP

[spiral charm]

is "secrets of the first ones" the 9.2.5 new campaign?

[vale hawk]

9.2, but yes. It's the current campaign in Zereth Mortis

[spiral charm]

oh cool ty

what did 9.2.5 add? was it just a small update?

[vale hawk]

https://www.wowhead.com/guides/patch-9-2-5-shadowlands-eternitys-end

[spiral charm]

stupid random question but

has anyone ever tried to do every quest in wow? is there an achievement

[vale hawk]

https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=7520/the-loremaster

[keen pewter]

yeah that's easy

ATT_quests can be more annoying though

[hallow bolt]

Any idea why I can't learn this Tailoring pattern? I've already spoken with the tailoring trainer in Dalaran (Legion) and learnt everything he had to offer

good ilvl to heal an 11

[loud steeple]

How do some people explore 20 zones all at once?

[hallow bolt]

I can't recall the name of the items, but you can buy certain items that explores all areas in a zone all at once, like all of Kalimdor, all of Eastern Kingdoms, all of Outlands, and so on

Found it. Here's one for Kalimdor for example:
https://www.wowhead.com/item=150743/scouting-map-surviving-kalimdor

[loud steeple]

aww ok makes sense thanks

[hasty spear]

Sorry i somehow just now remembered that i wanted to answer this. i think this might have to do with the cameras Water Collision feature. you should be able to disable this via Interface -> Camera -> Water Collision

[hollow zephyr]

Ty this worked

[hasty spear]

[cunning prism]

where can I upgrade items with valor without having shadowlands?

somewhere outside Oribos

er, honor I mean.

[pallid fulcrum]

Guys how do I get legendarys ? I’ve been looking at my BIS list as a fury warier and I want to get the grim-veiled cape. But idk how to actually get it

[willow grail]

any ideas on why this is happening

[willow grail]

Either purchased on Auction house or crafting as a tailor

[hasty spear]

https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/10581

use the self service option to reset your character position, wait 15 minutes then reconnect

[hasty spear]

pretty simple. you have to craft one for the campaign quests anyway. you need a base item which you can get from a crafting profession (usually you buy it off the auction house), 2 Missives which define the stats the Legendary will have (again bought off the auction house), the necessary soul ash, soul cinders and flux to craft the legendary item at the Base Items ilvl and the memory of the legendary you wanna get the effect of. Then you go to the Runecarver and craft that stuff

[velvet sparrow]

You can't.

[hard imp]

can you still get the Cloudsong Glaives?

[hasty spear]

technically yes since you can still buy it but only if you have done the achievement back then in wod. I guess you didnt so no its not available to you

[spiral charm]

so lets say i have bags full of shit i havent cleared out in ages

the professions resources and stuff, should i send them to the ah, or just vendor?

does old soulbound gear have any use? or should i vendor

also ive got tons of old quest items and currencies, should i shove that in the bank?

[hasty spear]

old soulbound gear you are sure you wont wear can be vendored. Quest Items you wont need can be deleted, resources should be put onto the auction house (that depends on the current price there. it MIGHT be lower than vendor price ) and rest goes into bank i guess. If there are any soulbound items you want to keep just for the sake of it (like idk.. Old Warrior's Soul because of the implication its Saurfangs Soul or whatever) you might be able to put that into the void storage to save space in your bank

[spiral charm]

tyty, thats really helpful

noob question: whats void storage?

[hasty spear]

like bank storage but for soulbound items only (+ some restrictions afaik but im not 100% sure) and you usually find the void storage dude right next to the transmog dude

also putting items into it costs a bit of gold. withdrawing is free. but hey its additional storage

[spiral charm]

oh thats cool, tyty

[distant yacht]

anyone know what ilvl loot ahune is dropping for midsummer event?

[keen pewter]

In past editions it was similar to heroic dungeons iirc?

[umbral saddle]

210

[distant yacht]

just the cape and the polearm/staff right he never had any other loot gear wise? aside from enchant and pet

thanks lehr

[umbral saddle]

Still better to just gear with ZM anima guy and get that 226 boost. As long as you have the anima to blow

[umbral saddle]

I also think the only restrictions were it had to be soul bound and it only works for gear nothing else

[keen pewter]

Void Bank requires soulbound and non-Unique items iirc

At least legendaries when I tried to bank them I wasn't able to

[hasty spear]

yeah my legendaries are also in the bank. i remember trying to put an azzinoth glaive into it and not being able to

[keen pewter]

I'm still not sure what the point of Void Bank is ngl

Aside of gold sink

[umbral saddle]

Pretty sure it was the start of being able to transmog stuff right? Honestly that was so long ago and remember being able to slightly change stats on items

Like it had to be in VS to tmog it idk

[hasty spear]

yeah i think originally it was meant to be the storage of your transmog items since back then you still needed the item you copied the appearence of. now i just use it for items i want to keep because i can keeps the bank a bit cleaner

[distant yacht]

not if you don't have shadowlands 😅 my eu account stuck at 50

[umbral saddle]

Well then I don’t think you’ll be getting 210 gear from the event then since that’s at level 60

[distant yacht]

right

I got 60s on my na one though

also you can buy on AH ilvl 233 crafted stuff

[umbral saddle]

Yeah but 500 anima is “cheaper” than gold since anima is about to be useless

[vale hawk]

More because anima is so plentiful

[cursive rock]

I am going to be taking a break from playing WOW , been playing since CATA came out, do I need to let Blizzard know of this , other then tell my guilds that I am in

[hasty spear]

then tell them

[vale hawk]

Just tell your people. There will be an option to say why you're unsubbing when you do

[hasty spear]

oh i read it as "I need to let blizzard know of this". i didnt get that it was worded as a question. Why would you need to let blizzard know?

[cursive rock]

ok thank you

it is was a worded question

[keen pewter]

Yeah just stop paying them

[cursive rock]

understand

[distant yacht]

you dont have to tell anyone anything if you don't want to pay them then don't. you're not required to.

play token by token if you want. no need to fund with actual money if you got the gold

[lucid zinc]

what's the fastest way to get revered with the enlightened?

[umbral saddle]

do all rares and WQs every day and run ZM world boss and as much raid as you can every week too (not sure if different difficulties stack rep) oh and buy the inscription rep bonus thing

[vale hawk]

https://www.wowhead.com/guides/the-enlightened-reputation-rewards-zereth-mortis

[vernal parrot]

Guys just a question, if someone leave a mythic plus, but the other 4 players finish the dungeon, does the leaver get weekly vault ?

[pallid fulcrum]

hey im trying to do battle for stromgaurd on my level 56 alt warrior and i wrotten like 3 tickets to WoW and still not giving me any help the quest is not showing up on my screen.

wowhead comment section. you sure you meet all the requirements?

[umbral imp]

is there any way to get wow token in lvl 20?

[keen pewter]

No

[verbal yarrow]

How can I get the collectors edition of Dragonflight, also if I did get it would I get it day of release?

[hasty spear]

currently i see no collectors edition for dragonflight. Pre Order for this will probably launch i little later today? idk. Also that depends on where and how you order it but i got my last one 1-2 days before launch

[vale hawk]

There's no collector's edition available yet. Standard, Heroic, and Epic editions just became available for pre-order on the bnet shop

[verbal yarrow]

So look for it on the shop?

[vale hawk]

Yes.

Although be aware bnet is having issues with their authentication servers right now, so I'd personally recommend waiting an hour or two before buying anything

[umbral saddle]

uh, its up

[vale hawk]

But I'm a cautious gamer

[umbral saddle]

you also get like all the mounts and transmog stuff right away

pets and hearthstone

don't ask how i know

[vale hawk]

Yes, as it says on the store page

[umbral saddle]

OH COLLECTOR'S edition

hurr durr

i'm a fool

[vale hawk]

Servers are up but the authentication issues are for all of bnet, not wow. I just like to play it safe and not use services while there's an active error

[hasty spear]

Did the CE ever get sold in blizzards shop? I've never seen it on there. I get mine from amazon once it gets listed

[vale hawk]

Good question

[verbal yarrow]

Hmm

[umbral saddle]

its on their shop now

but the blizzard gear store

[hasty spear]

ohh... true. But i've never seen it on there either before. I think that might be a first i also have multiple language options right there. English, French and German. Interesting. I Wonder why its not on amazon yet... and why there is no news about it on wowhead.

[umbral saddle]

box art looks amazing for the collectors edition tho

[hasty spear]

its decent Yeah. but boxart is usually pretty good.

[umbral saddle]

the last collector's box i got was WoD and WoD let me down lol

[hasty spear]

i'll never understand why everyone hates wod. i loved it. never had more fun than in wod

[umbral saddle]

eh, it's more a personal thing. my guild finally died and all my friends stopped playing so i played for a month then unsubbed.

[vale hawk]

@verbal yarrow@hasty spear@umbral saddleWell looky here: https://gear.blizzard.com/products/wowcgp0011-dragonflight-epic-edition-collectors-set?blzcmp=blizzard-news

[umbral saddle]

yep lol

[hasty spear]

yeah already seen it

[vale hawk]

Oh sorry, just tabbed back and didn't read up

my b lol

[hasty spear]

but shipping is expensive on there... might just wait for amazon listing then

[umbral saddle]

mine was ~7 bucks

[hasty spear]

its like 15€... 15€ for what exactly? a standard parcel shipping that is. i know in the context of what the collectors costs its not that much but still... dafuq

[verbal yarrow]

Ty

[hasty spear]

also you can only pay via credit card i mean i could do that... but i dont really want to

[raven flint]

So is this a release date confirmation? Says available by December 2022

[umbral saddle]

on or before dec 31st 2022

that is unless they push it back

[keen pewter]

That's corporation talk for "We aim to release 2022"

[raven flint]

Well that's good then, weren't people expecting next yr?

[hasty spear]

i just hope for a delay i want them to take more time

[keen pewter]

Yeah, because it makes more sense for a winter 2023 or spring 2023

[velvet sparrow]

Most were wanting it to be next year

[vale hawk]

People were expecting a lot of things that weren't based on a bluepost or official release statement

[keen pewter]

This is 100% getting delayed, or being a veeeeeery messy day 1 expansion xD

[vale hawk]

probably able to get more work done with those people they axed no longer around to give distracting shoulder massages

[hasty spear]

good point

[keen pewter]

xd

[velvet sparrow]

Maybe all the breast milk made them more productive. Maybe they hired more fruit fruitbowls too

[hasty spear]

imagine how productive you would be with all those vitamins

[umbral saddle]

right i mean who could stay awake with getting their shoulders rubbed

[wraith sleet]

Is there gonna be new emotes?

And is there a list of every emote?

[hallow bolt]

https://wowwiki-archive.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_emotes

[hasty spear]

that list is not up to date

some of those got removed

[keen pewter]

(and use wowpedia instead anyhow)

[hasty spear]

or the normal wowwiki and not the wowwiki-archive

[wraith sleet]

Thank u😄

[wraith sleet]

Thanks

[wraith sleet]

Thanks

[pallid fulcrum]

What is actually coming out in season 4 ? Is it a new raid ?

[keen pewter]

From Not Me— Today at 22:02
season 4 is literally not content
shadowlands development is DONE
m+ and raid for next season is all old content

[hasty spear]

yeah nothing new comes out. old content gets recycled. You will get your season 4 ksm mount again but thats it i guess

[pallid fulcrum]

Oh ok

Do we know how long till season 4 ? Because I’m only at 1500 RIO atm

[keen pewter]

til dragonflight probably

[hasty spear]

nope and since we now know that dragonflight releases this year... probably sooner than we thought

why would dragonflight launch with Shadowlands Season 4?

[pallid fulcrum]

How much longer do I have for season 3 ?

[hasty spear]

no one knows

[pallid fulcrum]

I neee to get my KSM fast

Need*

I’m only at 1500 lol

[hasty spear]

then go ahead and do it. should be doable in 1-2 weeks

[raven flint]

Whats a ksm?

[pallid fulcrum]

does anyone know when prepurchase ends?

[azure reef]

keystone master

which is getting 2500 in M+ this season

[raven flint]

Ahh kk thanks

[shell yacht]

Is it possbile to get all the reward for the festival with one character ?

[silent oar]

Yes.

[shell yacht]

The only quest is lighting fires in different cities ? Don't tell me that I have to do that daily ?

[silent oar]

If the quest icon is blue, it’s a daily. If it’s yellow, you only need to complete it once.

[shell yacht]

Ok, thanks

[languid trench]

what happens if as a rogue you go in stealth and try to enter stormwind/orgimmar as the enemy faction

[velvet sparrow]

Guards with True Sight will see you and attack you on sight

[blazing mulch]

For people who usually order the physical Collector’s Edition boxes - is blizz good about delivering them on time before the xpac launches? Would hate to be waiting for my code

[shell yacht]

Where do you see that collector edition ?

I can only see heroic and epic

[blazing mulch]

I got an email about it today and pre-ordered it on the Blizzard Gear Store

https://gear.blizzard.com/products/wowcgp0011-dragonflight-epic-edition-collectors-set

Blizz should’ve worked out a way YEARS AGO to email the code for my items instead of just waiting for the box

Especially considering my address is going to change when I move to Uni again, and I coincidentally cannot edit my order and update my address 🙃🙃

[shell yacht]

So now we certain that the xpension is this year

[blazing mulch]

They may push that date back. I think Dec is unrealistic, but that’s just me

Who knows. I just want my digital content

[shell yacht]

That will be a very long S4 then

Do we get mount/pet/heartstone right away or just at the xpp ?

[blazing mulch]

Well, if you do not order the physical edition, you get that stuff right away.

I believe*

[umbral saddle]

if you buy t he online stuff you get it instantly but not the CE box

if you get the CE box its codes inside the box

[blazing mulch]

Yeah, so that’s my issue… how do people get around waiting for the code?

[umbral saddle]

buy the epic edition?

[blazing mulch]

I heard people buy the digital epic edition and refund it

[blazing mulch]

I don’t want to unnecessarily spend $50+ on it if I just bought the box.

[shell yacht]

That's os unfair

[umbral saddle]

then wait?

[blazing mulch]

Yeah. Someone who has experience with order the CE boxes, I would appreciate a little guidance

[umbral saddle]

its not gonna kill you to wait for your CE box

[blazing mulch]

Lol can you stop with the attitude pls?

Ik it’s not, but come on. This is an issue that could’ve been fixed like years ago.

[umbral saddle]

lol attitude?

[blazing mulch]

Just make the CE order linkable to an account, that way that account gets the digital items. Email the code or something. It’s not difficult.

[shell yacht]

I was sso tempted by the collector edition but waiting for the in game item is kinda deal breaker

[keen pewter]

blizzard has always been a bit weird with the way they do their codes

[blazing mulch]

Yeah, I would’ve waited till it got listed on Amazon so I would at least be sure that the box gets delivered on time, but this xpac’s box is marketed as “available only on the Blizzard Gear Store”

[blazing mulch]

Listen, the main issue is, I want my digital items on time. I want to know if the Blizzard Gear Store is good about fulfilling orders in a timely fashion so that I will have my code before the expansion drops.

I have never ordered a CE from the gear store before, so this is why I ask.

[umbral saddle]

idk, never ordered CE from blizzard usually i got it through GS which was pick up the day of expansion. but seeing as it's a preorder thing that access will be locked behind server access it will probably be on time. noone can really tell you yes or no. i've gotten orders from gear store a week before it was supposed to be here but also someone might tell you it was late by a month. theres too many factors to give you an true answer. plus will UPS or USPS lose your order BGS has nothing to do with that. does your postal service do a good job where you live?

also do you live near/in a big city. i used to live in orlando and i'd get packages days before they were supposed to be delivered now not so much

[blazing mulch]

They usually do. I was moreso asking people who have ordered the CE from the blizz gear store before (so they have some past experience with it). I would've waited for it to be listed on amazon, but by the way blizz put that "only available on the Blizzard Gear Store" thing, I doubt it'll be listed anywhere else

[blazing mulch]

Nah I live in suburban/rural area

[umbral saddle]

most likely they will probably be shipping these out at least 2 weeks before launch would be my guess to allow for postal services to get the boxes to the people for their codes since they won't have DF until they apply the code. which would make many people sour if they spent $150 and couldn't play day 1.

[blazing mulch]

Okay. I was trying to remember past expansions, trying to remember when ppl would start posting on twitter that they received their CE boxes. I knew it was usually at least a few days before the xpac goes live but ofc many people ordered theirs through services other than blizz gear store

[languid hill]

Hey everyone, this is my last hope. I have tried blizzard support, reddit, etc and have found or recieved no help. So please can anyone help me!!! Recently I started the Argent Tournament grind for the mounts. Everything was going perfectly fine until I became the Champion for Ogrimmar (My main faction). From there I continued to follow the quest chains/guides. I unlocked all the dailies and turned everything in properly and even got the exalted champion of Ogrimmar. Now the next step was to become a champion for one of the other groups. Every guide just says to pick another group it doesn't matter the order you do it, however, I cannot select any of the groups now. I remember after I completed the champion of Ogrimmar stuff I talked to Mokra again and went through his dialogue as I didn't know if there was another quest, and I clicked a chat bubble option (Was I not supposed to do this?). I have waited several days (two weeks now) to hopefully let it reset but I still cannot start any of dailies for any of the other groups (undercity, thunder bluff, etc...). I cannot find anyone who has had this issue and I really would like a fix, I submitted a ticket but that wasn't very helpful. Any help would be much appreciated as right now all I can do is run the Argent tournament dailies but none for any of the factions so I cant progress in becoming a champion for them. I can provide any information if its needed, please I just need help

[blazing mulch]

Ty, just saw this earlier. I'll use the credit for game time then. Thank you

[weary rover]

does anyone know how to fix it??

[blazing mulch]

Have you tried completely shutting down battle net and restarting it? Go into task manager and kill the program

[weary rover]

I already closed everything in the task manager related to battle net, but then a "starting battle.net" screen appears and it doesn't load, I restarted the pc. what else can i do

[blazing mulch]

So when that screen is up, open your system tray and see if there's a battle net icon there. Right click it and exit it (if it's there)

[weary rover]

ok i will try

I took out everything related to battle.net and it returned the same screen

[spare oar]

Did you open a ticket like I suggested yesterday?

[small meadow]

I switched covenants and lost health will I get it back?

[fervent bone]

If you get the 60 renown token thing you get all stamina unlocks

[weary rover]

I didn't get the tracert and so I don't envy it, do you think that if I send it without they will accept it?

[spare oar]

You could try opening a standard support ticket instead

[small meadow]

Where do I get it

[fervent bone]

Oribos fight master

[elfin rock]

So for pre ordering from the gear store does it charge you right away or on the day it ships?

[raven flint]

can i buy inv bags on my main and send them to alts? or send gold to my alts to buy inv bags?

[vale hawk]

You can do either

Sending the gold to your alt might be more convenient

[raven flint]

how does one send gold?

[silent oar]

Using the mailbox. You type in the name of the character you want to send it to and then put in the amount of gold.

[raven flint]

ahhh cool beans, thank you kindly!

[silent oar]

If you send mail to other people, you'll need to also add the realm name. So for example it would be typed out like this: YouNameHere-Realm. But for your own characters you just put the name if its on the same server.

[raven flint]

im using tsm so my alts were just in a drop box so it was nice and easy 🙂

[silent oar]

Oh neat :>

I have something similar in place so when I start to type out a name it gives me a list of names to click on.

[vale hawk]

That's also a thing by default, fyi

[raven flint]

oh i had no idea, first time doing it

[vale hawk]

The autofill does your characters first

Yeah

[teal tartan]

If i preorder heroic dragonflight it says it includes a Dragonflight Character boost to 60. What is the difference of a SL character boost and dragonflight character boost? I dont think the dragonflight boost is only usable for that xpac as Dragonflight xpac will be level 70 new max. Can anyone help me answering?

[high cloak]

what lvl does the SL boost give you currently?

[teal tartan]

60

[high cloak]

yea DF also gives you that

[teal tartan]

Yeah but whats the difference between them?

[high cloak]

so it's a free chara boost you can use right away

seemingly nothing

[teal tartan]

why is it called dragonflight char boost and not SL

[high cloak]

l dont know, maybe I am missing something

[vale hawk]

It's the same thing. They're both level 60 boosts.

[high cloak]

figured, guess it's called DF boost cause you get it by buying DF

if you'd buy a SL special edition l guess that would include a boost too? so they don't wanna mix it up

just speculation on my end

[vale hawk]

It's just because it's sold with that xpac

[high cloak]

makes sense

l wonder what l should use it for

[vale hawk]

A cross-faction alt or another alt of a class you've already leveled before

That's most recommended

[teal tartan]

I just paid 200 euros to buy the special offer, featured and heroic preorder. Bruh

[vale hawk]

It's a bad idea to boost a class you've never leveled or one you haven't leveled since a redesign, due to being overwhelmed with abilities and information that you're supposed to be introduced to over time while leveling

[high cloak]

l do have all classes, guess X faction alt maybe

[arctic gust]

hey i am new to the game and would like to know the fastest way to lv up and get better gear if u dont mind helping me

[cosmic spear]

what level are you now?

[arctic gust]

i am 8

[cosmic spear]

ok i will pm you what I would do?

[arctic gust]

ok

[silver marsh]

is this guy daily or weekly quests

[pallid fulcrum]

Weekly iirc

[shell yacht]

The quest "Emissary of war" Complete 4 mythic dungeons. Can it be 4 m+ ?

[ebon cobalt]

yes

[hallow bolt]

Does damage scale somehow in heroic dungeons? Just did Halls of Atonement as a fresh Shadow Priest to work on my rotations. On the final boss, a Destruction Warlock placed 1st with 4.5k DPS and ~220 item level, and I placed second with 4.1k DPS and ~248 item level

So is there some sort of scaling, or do I just straight up need to work on my rotation?

[hasty spear]

what do you mean by scaling? No i dont think so. you might just have to work on your rotation, talents, soulbinds, conduits, whatever

[keen pewter]

No they're just better at dps than you, at least for that fight

[hallow bolt]

back to the training dummies I go

[hasty spear]

why tho? That was a HC Dungeon and you are on 220 ilvl. I wouldnt worry about that until you actually do challenging content.

[keen pewter]

They're 248, the 220 outdpsed them

[hasty spear]

oh... yeah

[hallow bolt]

I want to try out Mythic dungeons, but am hesitant to do so because I don't want to feel like I'm being carried or am a burden to the rest of the group

[hasty spear]

so close to 250 ilvl is enough for higher key m+ dungeons. What about your legendaries? Do you have both equipped? Any Tier set items? (might have got some out of LFR or something). The Tier Set Bonus could help you out a lot

[hallow bolt]

I have a 291 legendary with Measured Contemplation equipped (I know it isn't a particularly good leg power for PvE, but I'm doing more PvP than PvE), the basic 265 legendary you get from ZM, and I have 2-set bonus active

[hasty spear]

well... training dummies it is then

[hallow bolt]

[low bone]

what would be a better covenant option for a guardian druid? Venth or Fae?

[spiral charm]

https://www.wowhead.com/guides/guardian-druid-best-covenant-shadowlands

based off of this, 60% go night fae and 30% go venthyr. theres also a more detailed description of which ones are best for which content in the guide

_ _
so i wanna get 10k anima to buy the transmog set, but before i do that, are any of these worth investing in? like will any of the upgrades help me earn anima faster in the future?

when i say 'any of these' i mean any of the four upgrades, not just the one i had selected

[hasty spear]

Yes you get an achievement for Upgrading all four of them to Level 1,2 and then 3. Each of those 3 Achievements Increases your Anima Rewards.

First of those Achievements would be [We can Rebuild]

[forest lily]

We Can Rebuild - https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=15023/we-can-rebuild - Live 9.2.5

We Can Rebuild

Live 9.2.5

[spiral charm]

thats really helpful, tyty

[spiral charm]

any use for duplicate conduits? (when im already at purple)

when you max out your renown, do renown quests give you like bonus gold or anime or something like that instead?

[weak tangle]

hi im new to wow, can anyone like teach me the ways of the game lol? dm me if ur up

[keen pewter]

Just play the game

there's a tutorial

[spiral charm]

im down to help, friend me and ask me shit whenever

[weak tangle]

alr great thanks, I sent u a friend request

[spiral charm]

are there any drawbacks to playing on a roleplay realm?

[keen pewter]

No

[spiral charm]

ok ty

so theres no harm in me only having characters in a rp realm and still using them for pve content?

[vale hawk]

Nah, not at all. I have plenty of friends who don't RP that play on RP realms just for the community vibes

Still guilds that do PvP, mythics, raids, etc like any other realm

[spiral charm]

ok tyty, thats really helpful

[hasty spear]

i read that so often... i might have to check one out. What is the preferred RP Realm for Horde in EU?

[spiral charm]

forces all my friends to join my rp realm

[spiral charm]

iirc theres two main ones, idk what the other is but im on argent dawn

[vale hawk]

I can't speak for EU. Even my EU friends play on my NA RP realm 🤷

[hasty spear]

[silent oar]

I’ve played on MoonGuard Alliance for raiding and PvE. And if I Roleplay I just stick to the main cities.

I’ve also found Roleplay on Wrymrest Accord to be heavily on Horde side, but the Alliance also has decent amount of Roleplayers.

[spiral charm]

how easy/difficult is it for a lvl 60 character around ilvl 250 to solo bfa raids?

[hasty spear]

i tried it recently with the LFR Version of the Jaina fight for GMOD. Im a ~270 Assassination Rogue. No chance for me

although now that i think about it i dont really know when "recently" actually was. could be longer ago than i think right now

[spiral charm]

tyty, ill keep that in mind

when was the last time wow ever added a new shirt? it seems like they're all old textures

and isthere a reason theyve stopped

[fervent bone]

friend and I 2 manned it last patch

bit finicky tho

[sly spear]

Where is a good spot to get addons?

[hasty spear]

You find pretty much every Addon on CurseForge

Alternatives Would be Wago.io, Wowinterface, Wowuphub

[sly spear]

So that is the new spot? Ok. I used to use the twitch desktop app but that’s gone now 😦

[keen pewter]

yeah that's curseforge now

[hasty spear]

TwitchApp was CurseForge

The TwitchApp was just downloading from CurseForge

[sly spear]

I did not know that part

[hasty spear]

They now have 2 Apps for that. CurseForge App with Overwolf and a Curseforge Standalone app. Use the latter

[sly spear]

The latter?

[hasty spear]

the second one

[sly spear]

I haven’t played for a few years so I’m a newb rn lol

[hasty spear]

https://curseforge.overwolf.com/downloads/curseforge-latest-win64.exe

direct download link for the CurseForge Standalone App

[sly spear]

You’re the shit

[spiral charm]

i need 3k anima and ive done all my wqs

whats the best way?

[hasty spear]

i guess farming in zereth mortis? Opening Chests and stuff. not sure but i think rares also drop some?

[spiral charm]

oh is anima easy to get in zereth mortis?

[vale hawk]

Hella easy

[spiral charm]

ok tyty, im gonna go unlock zereth mortis

[velvet sparrow]

@sly spear yup. Get the standalone and wowup

[spiral charm]

so whats the best way for anima in zereth mortis? chest hunting? wqs? campaign?

[silent oar]

Everything gives anima, so can just do a combination of everything.

There's a npc in the base area (whatever covenant you choose) and they will take the anima out of your bags and deliver it directly to your covenant without having to leave Zereth Mortis.

[hasty spear]

First of all i recommend to join a Rare Mob Group to get those Rare kills for your Zereth Mortis Flying Achievement

[lost lily]

when this skill is auto active?

[spiral charm]

how does one check their anima on the go?

as in in-game

like when youre around azeroth and dont wanna travel to the sanctum

ik the mobile app shows you but then youve gotta turn off WoW

[cyan thicket]

In-game, anima is marked on your currency's tab on your character pane

[spiral charm]

tysm

random but has anyone else noticed how zereth mortis has tons of parkour?

[velvet sparrow]

Their called jump puzzles

[hallow bolt]

If the icon has a golden glow that's swirling around it that means auto-cast is enabled

[hard imp]

im entering and leaving island expedition to try and get a specific island and its been well over an hour and i keep getting the same 2, am i just getting unlucky or can you only do a certain island a certain amount of times a day (like ive been trying to get 1 of the 3 this week and its ONLY giving me the 2 i dont want)

[lost lily]

alr thanks a lot

[velvet sparrow]

I believe the islands rotate weekly or biweekly. It's been a while since I had to do them

[hard imp]

ik that part im like trying to get into 1 of the 3 this week, i completed it once and now i ONLY get the other 2

maybe i have to do another one and complete it to get the one i want again

[hallow bolt]

Are you sure it's in this week's rotation though? It cycled today/yesterday depending on if you're EU or NA

[amber nymph]

Anyone mind helping me with shaman cov/soulbind stuff. A bit confused.

Is everything kyrian best now or what?

[keen pewter]

my enh shaman went venthyr

1year ago

idk now

[azure reef]

enh shaman goes necro for dungeons and fae for raid

[spiral charm]

are lore questions allowed here?

[hasty spear]

i guess? its still related to the game right?

[hallow bolt]

https://tenor.com/view/ill-allow-it-ken-jeong-korean-mexican-hat-gif-5187167

[keen pewter]

I'm okay with it too, go ahead

[spiral charm]

ok so sylvanas used the og lich king ner'zhul's helmet to yeet open the shadowlands, right? and that helmet was made by a nathrezim demon, right? so a, does that mean that sylvanas used fel magic to open the shadowlands? and b, if the helmet could be used to open that shadowlands portal, does thst mean thst any nathrezim is powerful enough to do the same thing?

this might be something really random/irrelevant, idk

also separate question, if demons go to the twisting nether when they die, then eventually get reborn to the great dark beyond aka this reality. does that mean demons can't enter the shadowlands? if they can, how? also is the twisting nether technically a realm of the shadowlands, like valhalla or de other side?

[hasty spear]

The Nathrezim didnt make the helmet. The Primus/Rune Carver did if im not mistaken. Forced to do so by the jailer in the same way he was forced to make Kingsmourne just like he made Frostmourne before. The Nathrezim (under orders of denathrius) then delivered the helm. The Nathrezim also just consumed fel magic to "fit in" with the demons so that they could take advantage of the legion. The Helm of Domination had nothing to do with fel magic.

[hasty spear]

for this i have no idea actually. I GUESS they could enter the shadowlands just like we did right? We have basically established a normal portal connection right into the underworld im sure demons can pass these portals just like we can.

[spiral charm]

im assuming that the lich kings / nathrezims origins were all retconned by shadownlads then

[hasty spear]

jup

[spiral charm]

so technically, the primus is the guy behind all undead? and hes also like the king of the afterlife? that actually makes a lot of sense for a wow retcon, and is pretty interesting

[hasty spear]

well... more like they got more BACKGROUND information added to them. The only info we really had was that the Helm and the sword came from the Nathrezim. We didnt know who actually made them... i think

where did you get the "King of the afterlife" stuff from?

[spiral charm]

so nathrezim serve denathrius? and only pretended to be demons? so what actually are nathrezim?

[spiral charm]

maybe im mistaken but i thought the primus was the one in charge of the shadowlands (before he ended up losing his memories and becoming the runecarver)

[hasty spear]

the nathrezim are a creation of denathrius. iirc thats explained in the story. They lived in revendreath right there were its all dry, sunny and hot now. he pretended to nuke their home and exile them from the shadowlands so they could go and infiltrate the cosmic forces without anyone suspecting it to be denathrius plan

They lived in revendreath right there were its all dry, sunny and hot now
im not 100% about this part tho. They were 100% his creation and exiled. just not sure if thats really their home. but i think thats what i read

[spiral charm]

ohh ok thats really interesting, tyty

[hasty spear]

reading up on it. appearently he didnt nuke their home. The naaru did it after they found out about them infiltrating the light. but it was where they lived. Denathrius then staged the exile process to calm down the stone born (which were created to fight back against the naaru) as they blamed them for the naarus invasion.

but damn the lore gets more and more confusing. So many retcons and shit. Danuser really needs to calm down and write something simpler again... and maybe stop touching old established stuff and make something completly new (or use something we have'nt seen much of yet)

[spiral charm]

this really is confusing lmao (but interesting imo)

anyway i gtg now but tysm for answering all my questions

[shell yacht]

Is there a way to check where I'm at with the legion artifact / hall. Not sure how the whoel legion thing works

[silent topaz]

hello everyone
question i was told when u built a dk now u dont have to do the starting line and u start at 10 however i still need to do the starting line

how do i skip this

[vale hawk]

Allied races are the DKs who start at level 10 without having to do the Plaguelands/Light's Hope questline

[silent topaz]

i am allied

worgane dks

and i still have to do it

[vale hawk]

Allied races, not Alliance races

[silent topaz]

o

[vale hawk]

Worgen are a core race of the Alliance, not an allied race

Kul Tiran, Dark Iron Dwarves, Mechagnomes, etc

[silent topaz]

ok second question ppl have panda and highmountian dks how do i do that

[vale hawk]

Own the Shadowlands expansion

[silent topaz]

: ( xd

ok thxs

[loud steeple]

Is it possible to go back to BFA from Slands?, i still have rep to grind lul

[white mural]

Simply take the portal to Orgrimmar/Stormwind from Oribos and go to the portal room, then to the BfA zones.

[loud steeple]

OK thanks

[blissful thistle]

Hello! I need a question answering, the gear that I have collected and upgraded doing M+ in season 3, what will happen to it come Season 4? Will you just be able to upgrade those items up to a new cap?

Or will I have to farm new gear?

[umbral saddle]

nope when the season is over you can no longer upgrade old season gear

you'll need to get new gear to spend new valor on but if you're in max gear its a pretty nice start to the season instead of just in greens or the bare minimum

[blissful thistle]

Okey dokey! Not as bad as I thought it would be 😄

Thank you

[spiral charm]

are the og three warcraft games still a thing to play?

[keen pewter]

you can certainly play them

[final coral]

So is Wrath Classic ONLY fresh start or can I make a char on TBC now and play it for wrath?

[keen pewter]

the later

[final coral]

So the fresh start servers are in addition?

[keen pewter]

Yes

[spiral charm]

is the movie canon? and how accurate is it lore-wise

[keen pewter]

No, and no

it's a take on wc1

[spiral charm]

lore question, did deathwing lose their shapeshifting abilities when they were corrupted by the old gods?

[umbral saddle]

No, pretty sure we see him in a sorta human form in Cata.

But also in High mountain area we also see him in that weird human form with the chin

[spiral charm]

highmountain? ok noob question here but i thought highmountain was added in legion and deathwing died in cata?

[umbral saddle]

Highmountain has some ties to DW that’s a whole quest chain there that deals with him

Plus his lair is there the lair before he was DW

[spiral charm]

ohhh tyty

i have another unrelated lore question

so

shadowlands retcons that the nathrezim are a race of people made by denathrius and they pretended to be demons

so sylvanas windrunner works for the jailer. also the nathrezim work for denathrius. who works for the jailer. so sylvanas and the nathrezim work together? but wasnt it a whole thing in wc3 that sylvanas was manipulating all the nathrezim against eachother?

[keen pewter]

Shadowlands retcons 90% of the good plot of the game, feel free to headcanon shadowlands out of existence

[vale hawk]

Sylvanas was not aligned with the Jailer until after the events of the Icecrown Citadel raid

[keen pewter]

Allegedly

[vale hawk]

Wtf do you mean "allegedly"

[keen pewter]

It's just shit writing in general

Watch it be changed in 6 years

[vale hawk]

Oh so you're just shitposting

[keen pewter]

🤷‍♂️

feel free to think that

[vale hawk]

Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean you can just handwave it away. They asked a question, they deserve an unbiased answer instead of being misleading

Don't misinform people just because you have an opinion

Don't be "that guy"

[umbral saddle]

Syl didn’t know who the jailer was until like what BfA?

[vale hawk]

Probably before that. She became an agent of his after her death in Edge of Night

It's when she was tied to the val'kyr and brought back, the bargain made with her when she saw her fate was to be doomed to the Maw etc etc

[umbral saddle]

Oh that makes sense

[vale hawk]

Still wasn't a whole "hey do this, do that, here's the rest of the team and you're best friends" situation obviously. And she didn't really kick into gear operating until around Legion in Stormheim iirc

[umbral saddle]

I thought that took place sometime in BfA or legion

I should probably hunt down all the books and give them a read

[vale hawk]

All the stuff with Helya and Sylvanas happened in Legion, yeah

The gist of it is here: https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Sylvanas_Windrunner

[velvet sparrow]

Based

[vale hawk]

Don't support misinformation

You of all people

[hasty spear]

i mean they are right arent they? Shadowlands did have multiple retcons. Huge ones too. But we cant do anything about it

[vale hawk]

Yeah, and historians retcon human history when they discover new information. Oh yeah, and detectives retcon a murderer's alibi that they were somewhere else when the murder happened. Omg M Night Shabamalama retcons all of his movies halfway through, that's the twist!

[umbral saddle]

I mean, the reveal of information isn’t a retcon

[vale hawk]

Doesn't change the fact that the person asked a question and deserves an unbiased answer aside from "headcanon it however, nothing matters, everything is lies and made up"

Damn flat-earther tier denial

[spiral charm]

ty gumball for all the helpful answers

random but do worgens go to the expedition starter or do they still have to do gilneas?

[vale hawk]

Your choice at character creation. The only characters who do not get the Exile's Reach starter zone option are death knights, demon hunters, and allied races

[spiral charm]

tyty, thats perfect

[jolly crow]

Can only but approve.

When a question is asked, people deserve answers, not sarcasm, misleading, or worse.

[velvet sparrow]

They were given an answer, a correct one and then an opinion after.

[vale hawk]

Shadowlands retcons 90% of the good plot of the game, feel free to headcanon shadowlands out of existence isn't an unbiased response to the original question. Don't be an ass. Take it back to the forums

[jolly crow]

Can agree, that's nor an answer or a correct one. :(
That's like if you ask for the direction to a city and someone response "this town changed the good direction, do as you want"... That's not really what he asked or wanted.

[vale hawk]

Sometimes you just need to keep your divisive nonsense to yourself, Baifeng. Same goes to Inter

[velvet sparrow]

Yikes to both of you.

[vale hawk]

Yikes to not wanting to misinform people. Right.

[jolly crow]

That's not gentle of you, Baifeng.

We cannot hide an attempt to mislead that was stated as fact-like as "it was only an opinion", after. This channel is for helping people.

[hasty spear]

There was no misinformation was there? They simply stated that shadowlands did retcon a bunch of shit and then said that they could do whatever with that info. That isnt wrong. Shadowlands did a bunch of retcons. You guys are blowing this so much out of proportion.

[jolly crow]

Not trashtalking.

[vale hawk]

They asked a question and what they got in response was "it doesn't matter, headcanon it"

That's not helpful

[jolly crow]

A correct response would be the answer and then "I personally don't like how the story turned out, so I prefer to headcanon with it"

[vale hawk]

There's an objective answer to that question using information that is accurate as it stands right now. You don't have to bullshit a response when it's not needed

[jolly crow]

Not "doesn't matter" as a response to someone who asked for canon explanations of the story.

Yes. :/
The opinion of both is not considered "invalid". It's just not to be said in those situation as a response who want precise answers.

[hasty spear]

That was not what was said. They pretty much asked "Is this a retcon" and got the answer "Shadowlands is full of retcons". So the answer was implicated to be "Yes". Now i cant confirm if it was indeed a retcon.... but it was a kind of answer and you guys are laying it out to be the worst thing one could have said in here calm down

[vale hawk]

The justification of misleading opinions is what I find annoying

"calm down"

🙄

[jolly crow]

We're not angry.. :/

[vale hawk]

The person was trying to figure out the story beats, not get some runaround

[jolly crow]

Again, the correct answers would be "it was changed because this and that happened".
Imagine you watch NCIS, and you're asking "wait, I thought at first Gibsy was afraid of bombing?"
You can explain why it changed, the reason behind.

Yup.

And when someone want to figure out a story, we explain the story.

[vale hawk]

That's why afterwards they thanked me for giving a helpful, useful answer

[jolly crow]

(No matter how silly we think it is)

[vale hawk]

It's not that hard to farm for "hurr durr SLands bad" upvotes somewhere else

[frosty wolf]

as an undead warlock I'm trying to get my succubus but cant accept the quest and I don't know why. I'm the right level and i know who to for the quest but it is not appearing. can someone help

if you get the incubus can you not get the succubus?

[stoic basalt]

I’m gradually building tier sets on my alts by doing the daily mawsworn key chests. Now and then some uber geared person sweeps through and helps me clear a ton of mobs, and then goes to open the chest, too. Why would an uber toon want Sandworn Relics? Transmog, maybe?

[vale hawk]

Mogs, anima, Pocopoc cosmetics, fills up the weekly quest progress bar, etc. Could be any of those reasons--or they just wanted to do it

[stoic basalt]

Yeah….i guess it’s so easy for them, why not!? Farming those is still tough for me 🙂

I just just track the relics, but lots of other useful stuff is in there, too.

[lethal hawk]

In the quest "connected by zeret mortis" how to find the second configuration?!

[pallid fulcrum]

Does anyone know how to do warfronts? Are they like instances? I'm trying to get some transmogs from the quests

Any help would be welcomed

[velvet sparrow]

That was what happened

[vale hawk]

https://www.wowhead.com/warfronts-guide

Note: it might take a while or require more effort to set up a group for one, as it isn't current content

[stoic basalt]

You'll want to read up on it beforehand, because of the 5-person group that finally formed for me a while back, none of us knew what to do.

[hallow bolt]

You mean this one?

T.y

[dusky elk]

is there any way to fix the quest "The Fangs of the Devourer" for the rogue artifact weapon? I finished the quest and the turn in NPC isnt here

I believe valeera and the rest of the council is supposed to be seated

and I cant abandon the quest

[spiral charm]

is there like a command or something to teleport out of raids?

im not in a party

im halfway through the nighthold on normal by myself and i filled up my inventory with junk i need to sell

[keen pewter]

Nope, walk it out

[spiral charm]

cries

ty lmao

[keen pewter]

There used to be some ways but they keep changing stuff around so farming old content is annoying and tedious

[spiral charm]

im thankful for door of shadows and aspect of the cheetah

[high cloak]

yoiu should buy a vendor mount

the mammoth is quite cheap and you can mount up in nighthold here and there

or for some more gold

with a transmog guy on it too

if the server allows me

to actually link the wowhead link xD

https://www.wowhead.com/item=44235/reins-of-the-travelers-tundra-mammoth

now if only I could link the other one

[hasty spear]

just do it like this [Reins of the Grand Expedition Yak] <- in these brackets. the bot links it for you

[forest lily]

Reins of the Grand Expedition Yak - https://www.wowhead.com/item=84101/reins-of-the-grand-expedition-yak - Live 9.2.5

Reins of the Grand Expedition Yak

Live 9.2.5

[vale hawk]

Oh no I think Shuja got automuted by the bot

[spiral charm]

i finished it

now how the fuck do i leave

theres no portal or teleporting-npc or anything

[vale hawk]

You have a hearthstone, right?

Either that or go back to the entrance

[spiral charm]

i jumped off the edge but it worked

im doing mythic now

whats that big locked door on the right on the entrance? ive never noticed it before

[vale hawk]

I'm not looking at your screen, you'll have to elaborate

[vale hawk]

Ignore it. Just work your way to the next boss

Wowhead also has a Nighthold guide or two

[spiral charm]

theres no loot or anything?

oh well ill just ignore it then

ty

mythic spellblade alluriel is an absolute bastard

had me perma stunned

[keen pewter]

Yeah

[spiral charm]

i did it on attempt 2

ended up running away all the way to the end of the balcony

[vale hawk]

Again, content guide shows steps to avoid that

[cerulean lagoon]

Are there macros I can use to be able to drop down certain abilities on top of mobs w/o having to select the area?

Specifically (Warlock here) Infernal, Cataclysm, etc

Or would an @ Mouse macro be best?

[keen pewter]

Yes

[cerulean lagoon]

To?

[vale hawk]

https://www.wowhead.com/making-a-macro-commands-modifiers-warcraft-guide

[keen pewter]

@cursor to cursor, @player to yourself

[vale hawk]

Optionally, if you go into your interface settings to set a key for mouseover and focus target key commands

[keen pewter]

/cast [@cursor] Death and Decay```

It's the common macro for dks XD

[vale hawk]

If you check a guide for your spec, there will also be a Useful Macros section with macros that are commonly used and found use for that spec

[cerulean lagoon]

Awesome, thanks!

I assume @ target macros are no longer viable for AoE spells?

[vale hawk]

No, that was an unintentional bug that had been corrected

[keen pewter]

Huh, that was a thing?

[spiral charm]

so um

[vale hawk]

Snap targeting may return as an accessibility option, but don't count on it until it's in a bluepost or official statement

[spiral charm]

is that number reduced by the level difference or my armour or anything, or am i just gonna get absolutely one-shotted?

[cerulean lagoon]

Are you soloing a boss?

[spiral charm]

yeah

[vale hawk]

Ideally you kill the boss before that rolls out, or avoid it entirely

[spiral charm]

solo nightholg mythic

d

[cerulean lagoon]

Class?

[spiral charm]

hunter

[vale hawk]

If you scroll up, you'll see the context of the convo

[spiral charm]

i could feign death when he does it ig

[cerulean lagoon]

Oooo

[cerulean lagoon]

Would reset the boss tho yeah?

[spiral charm]

not if my pet is still attacking him, right?

[cerulean lagoon]

Hmm, good question

Not sure

What about Turtling it?

[vale hawk]

Correct

[spiral charm]

oh random side question, at max level, does your ilvl increase your pet's stats too?

[spiral charm]

oh yeah i forgot about turtle lmao

[vale hawk]

Yes

[spiral charm]

tyty

[vale hawk]

What's your current ilvl anyway

[spiral charm]

oh 200 exactly

[vale hawk]

You probably won't kill Gul'dan

[spiral charm]

i can always do zereth mortis to easily bump it up to abt 230 i think

[vale hawk]

You can get to 250ish just doing ZM content

[cerulean lagoon]

What ilvl do you think would be about right to kill M Gul'dan?

[vale hawk]

At least 220, preferably 230

[vale hawk]

I'm assuming you're playing BM?

You better have a clefthoof as your active pet

It'll make things a loooooot easier

[cerulean lagoon]

Man, I miss Legion

Maybe if we're lucky, papa Blizzard will give us #ClassicLegion in the next 10 years

[vale hawk]

Were ifs and buts candy and nuts we'd all have a merry Christmas. Unfortunately it's June and we're in 9.2.5 of Shadowlands

[cerulean lagoon]

Lmfao, it was only sarcasm xD

You gotta wonder how far Blizz is gunna go with Classic servers tho

[spiral charm]

im back, i kinda just went for it and star augur etraeus was pretty easy

[vale hawk]

And this is the help channel

[spiral charm]

im markmanship

[spiral charm]

id definitely be down

i joined bfa but legion is my favourite past expansion from what ive seen

[vale hawk]

Then you want a scalehide

[spiral charm]

ill look that up afterwards, ty

[vale hawk]

https://www.wow-petopia.com/family.php?id=scalehide

[spiral charm]

anything in that family? or is there a particular one

[vale hawk]

Anything in that family

[spiral charm]

aight tyty

[vale hawk]

They're all scalehides

[spiral charm]

so i tried gul'dan

i thought id done it

then he turned into an emo illidan and started talking about himself in the third person

and i died

can you hide shit in this menu?

[white mural]

Click the list thing.

That list icon.

[spiral charm]

oh ty but thats not what i mean

like

you know in the transmogrifier you can make shit invisible

[white mural]

Oooh, right.

Extend the mog window.

And click on the pieces you want removed in the circles at the bottom.

[spiral charm]

extend the mog window? the lil arrow just left of x?

[velvet sparrow]

Oh you poor thing

[white mural]

Yes.

[spiral charm]

if i were to rank them based solely off of what ive played of them:
-WoD
-Legion
-MoP
-Cata
-WotlK
-TBC

[white mural]

Oh, you poor thing.

WoD was good. But you haven't seen what the endgame had to offer.

[spiral charm]

i havent seen what any endgames have to offer

what did WoD do?

[white mural]

Had less content than Shadowlands.

And Shadowlands ain't doing so hot. So I'll let you imagine it.

[spiral charm]

ok yeah i can imagine that sucking a lot

whats the most popular expansion?

[white mural]

Wrath. Easily.

By a landslide.

[spiral charm]

what'd wrath do that was good?

[white mural]

I can't find it past WoD, sadly.

[velvet sparrow]

MoP and Wrath are my favorite xpacs

[white mural]

MoP and Legion here. But I'm biased.

Started late.

[spiral charm]

ive seen a lot of love for MoP

pandaria is definitely my favourite zone for visuals

[velvet sparrow]

Based

[white mural]

You should try doing some dailies and change your mind. xD

[white mural]

Started doing Tillers dailies. They're fun but they're so many of them.

[velvet sparrow]

I loved the dailies

[silent oar]

Dailies were repetitive. But that didn’t make me not like the expansion as a whole

[white mural]

Didn't like farming frogs in Timeless Isle for days, either.

Drop my fucking Burden of Eternity.

[velvet sparrow]

I loved the Timeless isle

[white mural]

I wish they brought back the quiz daily in general.

Maybe for 25 Timewarped Badges.

I loved the quiz daily. Just asking lore questions.

[velvet sparrow]

I just loved everything about MoP

[spiral charm]

a quiz minigame sounds fun as fuck

i liked that one venthyr campaign quest where you have to answer questions about kael'thas' life

[onyx halo]

Do you still get the heritage armor from allied races if you use a levelboost on it? I thought to remember not?

[fervent bone]

You cant get it

[hasty spear]

still? i thought that was never a thing

[onyx halo]

I meant, do i get it, even if I use a boost, that's wat the "still" referred to

Seems not then

[weak coral]

Hello! I am thinking about returning to WOW after many years, but I want to play a human mage. Is it even worth it? Or is a human mage handicapped bc of race? I don't want to play a gnome.

[keen pewter]

Races don't matter

And haven't for over 10 years

[pallid fulcrum]

Hello, my friend is lvling his first character to 60. Will he have to do all story chapters in all the zones to get his covenant or is there a skip?

[umbral saddle]

this is no skip for your first time. you must do the story to get the covenant unlock

[languid trench]

what's the most tanky/powerful battle pet

[vale hawk]

Depends on the fight, but usually any mechanical or undead with blocks

[raven flint]

using elvui and my tool tip popup window is massive .. cant find a way to resize it, anyone able to assist?

[keen pewter]

That, to me, looks like a two-addon interaction

elvui+something else

Try /reload before further checks tho, maybe it just bugged this one time

[raven flint]

ahh there we go, reload worked all good now thank you!

[weak coral]

hey how does naming work in the game nowadays? I want the name Crow, but yeah good luck right? Can I do Crow Amal? like with a last name?

[keen pewter]

No surnames

[raven flint]

youd have to just make it one word .. kinda annoying imo lol

[vale hawk]

Only one name, no surnames. If it fits you could type both and just use an RP addon like Total RP 3 to create you're one custom name with title, first, last, and even descriptor on top of a whole host of other options

But yeah, for the most part you just gotta be lucky that the name you want isn't taken

[weak coral]

Thanks. wow that sucks a lot

[vale hawk]

🤷

Similar to a lot of other games

[weak coral]

Is EQ 2 good anymore?

[vale hawk]

Idk I don't play pokemon

[weak coral]

lol

[vale hawk]

Or League, ew

[weak coral]

League of Legends ya mean?

[vale hawk]

Oh wait this is help not regular chat lmao

[willow grail]

what does it mean on wowhead if a drop is ?? out of a huge number? I'm trying to get either https://www.wowhead.com/item=45620/starshard-edge or https://www.wowhead.com/item=45607/fang-of-oblivion#comments and while I know its just rng I've done 3 bosses that supposedly can drop it on 8 characters for 2 lockouts now

Both are listed as drops on Algalon, Mimiron, and on The Assembly of Iron

[languid trench]

is there any way to cancel abilities like Fists of Fury or Steady Shot

[willow grail]

I think hitting escape?

[willow grail]

stuff like this

[spare oar]

it means theres no data

or at least not enough to derive drop rates

[umbral saddle]

Probably not enough data to confirm a actual drop %

[willow grail]

No data on chance? Alr, but it means I absolutely could get it from there right

[spare oar]

you can check dungeon journal in game, but yes

the location of loot isnt in question

[willow grail]

yes its there was just double checkin

[spare oar]

the drop chances are gathered from the wowhead client

so if nobody using the client has done the content, or not enough people have, they cant derive percentage chance

[vocal oracle]

hello im lvl 20 and looking to get my lv20 riding skill
it tells me to go see my trainer but i have no clue who and where that is
im in tradewins market

[opal spire]

in dragon flight the only way that we can customize our gameplay is the new talent tree?

[vale hawk]

Take the portal back to Stormwind. There's a riding trainer by the SI:7 barracks, and another by the pandaren NPCs near the Earthshrine

[vocal oracle]

ohh thank you. could u also tell me if theres anyh way to mark a spot in the map so that itll guide me there: im having troule finding the portal even though i seem to be on top of it

[vale hawk]

They'll show up on the minimap with a book icon like other trainers if you click the 🔍 button on your minimap and track them in the Townsfolk list

[vocal oracle]

oh im looking for the portal to stormwind still actually

[vale hawk]

The portal in Boralus is also indoors, so keep an eye on that. You can ask any guard for directions, just like you're taught in the tutorial, and it will be marked on your map with a red flag

You should have set up the portal to Stormwind from there as one of the first few quests

[final coral]

Is there anyway to get blizzard to look at a ticket?

its been like 18 hours

[daring arrow]

NO

[final coral]

Ok, thanks

[daring arrow]

but yeha it takes them awhile

one time

i made a ticket to blizzard

it went back and fourth

[final coral]

my toon is literally bugged so i can't play >>

[daring arrow]

for a few weeks

it'd take them several days to respond

[umbral saddle]

Do the self move thing in the account page

[final coral]

self move?

[daring arrow]

its just as hearth stone

[umbral saddle]

You can do a auto unstuck on the website

[severe arrow]

LuckyPants#1509118

add me any

[vale hawk]

Spamming in multiple servers and multiple channels isn't going to do you any favors. You're better off posting in LFG channels, or by using the in-game Guild & Community finder to find people on your own realm to play with

[severe arrow]

add me

[vale hawk]

No, because now you're just coming off as way too pushy

[severe arrow]

ok?

[fathom solar]

God I'm glad I don't have to do that kind of shit anymore.

[weak coral]

So I don't understand...I just started up WOW again today after 16 years of not playing and uh...is Shadowlands the entire content of the game and all of its history? Or is it some brand new thing?

[vale hawk]

Shadowlands is the current expansion

[weak coral]

So I just started a character in Shadowlands, and I am on some island trying to help find people. Did I start afresh in the wrong game? I'd like to experience the WHOLE WOW experience that I loved like 15 years ago. Have I painted myself into a corner by starting with this island? Or can I visit all of those cool old areas?

If all I have access to is Shadowlands and it just came out, I would imagine that the content is really , really limited

[umbral saddle]

Since you started a fresh character you pretty much doing tutorial island, once you do that (1-10) the game will let you out and you be leveling in the current world which is BfA (10-50). After hitting 50 you’ll unlock shadowlands and you’ll level 50-60 there. Once you’ve leveled a character to I believe 50 you can go talk to a bronze dragon (chromie) to change which expansion you level in in the future

[weak coral]

Thanks for the reply. Hrm. Why am I reading online that some people are like level 150 and so then? I am glad that I can revisit my old stomping grounds! thanks!

[umbral saddle]

that's old info the level cap was squished when shadowlands prepatch came out. we went from level 120 to 50 then 50-60 in shadowlands

[weak coral]

ah ok. I bet a lot of folks were pissed about that!

I want to bash Hogger again!

Are there any "pay to win" elements in the game now?

[umbral saddle]

Eh, only those who don’t understand that 120 was a useless number and 120 and 50 are pretty much the same

No

[weak coral]

cool ty

[hasty spear]

not directly. You can pay to boost your character to a certain level but leveling without it goes pretty fast so who cares. You can buy gold tho and gold can be used to buy boosts from other players to carrie you through content. do with that what you will

[spark junco]

hey guys I want to start playing the game but I heard that there is a new expansion coming soon , so u think is it worth to buy it now or should I wait ?

[steady halo]

Dragonflight won't be out until December...maybe

[umbral saddle]

You’ll want to play now to be ready for the expansion

Or you’ll have to get through all the old stuff before enjoying the new stuff

[hasty spear]

for a new player it wouldnt make a difference since you have to level up first anyway so why wait. Start now and get to lv. 20 first with the free starter edition

[spiral charm]

so wow classic, wow tbc, and wow wrath are all gonna be up simultaneously, right?

eventually is wow just gonna have a separate server for every expansion

[vale hawk]

Wrath is replacing TBC

[spiral charm]

also whats the endgame like rn in wow classic or wow tbc? are they adding more content/ilvls/etc over time?

[spiral charm]

ohh ty, so itll be classic and wrath?

[vale hawk]

Nothing new is added to classic, that's the point of classic. Its endgame is the same as the endgame during that content

[spiral charm]

Will tbc characters transfer to wrath or be deleted?

[spiral charm]

tyty

[vale hawk]

TBC characters will be transfered iirc, but you'll have to ask someone who messes around with classic

Probably in #classic-wow

[red basin]

hey guys im getting back into wow after many years and have been taking the time to setup addons for interface. I'd like to be able to set it up so that any NPCs or enemy players etc have a healthbar above their head. Right now, the only way to see anyone's health is by pressing TAB and seeing the info in the Target Frame. Can anyone help?

[hasty spear]

activate nameplates. i think standard hotkey for that is the v key? not sure. But you can find it also in the settings menu. i think its somewhere in the interface section. For Customization you could use the Plater Addon which also has a wide variety of premade configs which you can find on wago.io

[spiral charm]

whats the benefit of doing boss pet battles? (the golden paw icons in the world)

you cant capture them, so is it just for xp or something?

[jolly crow]

They are sometimes tied to achievements and world quests. :)

[loud dock]

Newish to wow currenlty lvling a horde ret pally if anyone want to join on tarren mill

[spiral charm]

im exploring revendreth and

the map shows a lil chunk of land but im standing htere and theres nothing above or below me

also do any of these island to the west/south have anything to do on them?

the big one far down is also nonexistant. the one just north-west of it is there, but its slightly out of line with the map. the small yellow one above is non-existant

theres a big island west of the yellow one that doesnt show up on the map

a smaller island north of that that shows up

and the lil purple one on the map, top left-ish, doesnt exist

the lil one in the top left, yellow, does exist but its again not lined up with the map. and theres a small one just north of it that doesnt show up

[hasty spear]

These maps or not real scans from above or something. They are basically artworks done seperately. maybe some of those islands were there back when they took a scan of the map and based the map artwork on that but got removed/shifted later on

[spiral charm]

lowkey im surprised they didnt try to line the map up before release, but i guess it doesnt erally matter

some chests or something wouldve been nice

[hasty spear]

if you want to see a map thats actually scanned you can have a look here: https://wow.tools/maps/2296/1120/6/-12.375/66.609
on wow.tools you can see a wide variety of actual maps. snapshots of those maps from different patches are available to look at.

Keep in mind the Map Name doesnt always line up with the Zone. For example the link shows revendreath as part of the "Castle Nathria" map. Not sure if the shown area is actually the one we visit or if its a copied over instance of revendreath thats just also present in the Castle Nathria Map file but i couldnt find a dedicated "Revendreath" Map file so thats the best i could find

Well nevermind i found it. Its not in its own map file (why would it be... im stupid) but rather in the "The Shadowlands" Map file together with the other zones.. yeah idk what i was thinking: https://wow.tools/maps/2222/1120/6/-40.859/15.328

[spiral charm]

oh tyty, that seems pretty helpful

[blazing phoenix]

where would i go to get tips for MW monk?

[hasty spear]

The monk Class Discord seems to be https://discord.com/invite/peakofserenity i guess thats the best place to go

[blazing phoenix]

thx very much

[opal spire]

any frost mage player here? which covenant do u prefer for m+ and why?

[ancient belfry]

yo, anyone knows how to finish the warlock class mount quest line ?
I finished all the class campaign and still didnt get the class mount quest

[latent moat]

If you mean the Legion mount, you need to do the Broken Shore campaign all the way until the “shard times” chapter. If you haven’t completed all of Broken Shore before on another toon, you’ll have to do the whole thing instead. Someone let me know if I’m mistaken anywhere lol

[ancient belfry]

oh

that's why I didnt get the quest xD

ty

[latent moat]

glad to help!!

[languid trench]

do daily quests reset based on when you last completed them, or is there a set time that they reset regardless if you just did them?

[hallow bolt]

They reset at a set time.
http://wowreset.com/

[weak coral]

hey guys I don't have the spell yet, but how long does the summon water elemental spell last for? I think I read somewhere, only 45 seconds or something

[keen pewter]

Did you really just spam that question in several channels?

[vale hawk]

It's an active pet, as in it stays out unless it dies or you unsummon it

But yeah, stick to only asking in one place. Shotgunning it might seem like the way to get more responses, but as you can see from Intervencion's reaction most people are going to find it annoying and basically spam

[daring arrow]

druid or hunter

[vale hawk]

Yes.

But ferreal, whichever one you're better at or enjoy playing most

Druid does have the benefit of multiple role options

[opaque drift]

which hunter spec is better for 1v1? (dueling with friends)

[vale hawk]

imo SV, but any can work

You can cheese the hell out of duels as an MM, if you can camo and then send a buffed-to-hell aimed shot combo in your opening burst

[opaque drift]

thanks

[weak coral]

Sorry Gumball

Didn’t know the rules

[vale hawk]

Don't need to apologize to me, I'm just some dude

Just giving you a heads up
