Hey Era! I just resubbed. I'm gonna try and finish getting every class to 120, and also check out raiding content in 8.3
One of the issues why I unsubbed before is most of my friends quit, and joining a guild seemed kind of intimidating because most guilds are core groups that don't extend invites to returning players as often.
I'm on Elune-Alliance (US), anyone on that server?

Yes, exactly! I meant zones that have certain areas that you just can't reach without flying.
And I agree full-heartedly with the people about the pathfinder achievement. It's so uninspired and such an obvious cash grab by Blizz to get us to sub longer just to do those stupid rep grinds. Hell, I'm not even saying they should remove the Pathfinder system and change it back to a simple flying licence that you can buy at max level (-actually...THEY FU**ING SHOULD!-) , but at least remove the horrible rep grinds from it. Doing them is no fun at all and just tedious work...heck why not make an interesting quest line that you have to do in order to be able to fly?

But dragons die, hence death > dragons
You have too much loyalty to the Dark Lady. Surrender to the Ebon Blade!
Despite all the DK bullshittery from me, I leveled my Paladin from to 120 via timewalking over the weekend and I had forgotten how much fun that class is to play. Also, brain dead simple compared to DK.
Timewalking leveling is by far the most effective way to do it. Nothing comes close.

Paladin tanking is fun but I find it also to be a little lacking in engagement. Not really sure why.
I did Timewalking leveling the other night and was FLOORED by how much experience they give now.
I think it's because as I said, it's so easy. With Blood's lower armor values it feels like you balancing on a knife edge sometimes. It's a bit more anxiety inducing but also keeps you on your toes and rewarding when you do it well. That being said, I do think our armor is a little too low, I shouldn't feel squishy as a tank in plate armor.
I've been thinking about leveling my Warrior and DH but now I'm thinking I'll wait until TW comes around again.

I mean I like the purple but I don't want Sylvanas as the Lich Queen.
I think everyone misinterprets my like of her character as wanting her to be like the ultimate evil killing machine but I've just always enjoyed the more "in the shadows/'underdog'-ish" characters in fiction.
The Sylvanas we have now is not the character I wanted or loved. We better get a soap opera evil twin storyline or something because currently I'm extremely disappointed.

scene opens: uther's bedroom. uther is sleeping restlessly before he awakes with a fright. he gets out of bed and cautiously opens the door to the en suite bathroom. the shower is running and a figure is visible behind the curtain. uther nervously opens the shower and is visibly relieved
uther: oh arthas, i just had the most frightening dream
uther: oh arthas, i just had the most frightening dream
There's a pretty good chance that Arthas will make an appearance somewhere whenever we do go to the Shadowlands, but the Lich King that's currently active is Bolvar.
Was thinking about grabbing Shadowmourne on my DK. I never bothered. Is it a pain these days?
It's not really difficult at all, you just need to do icecrown every week for like 3 months.
Actually one of the steps might require a 2nd person to help? I don't remember entirely.
Fuck, that was my first time actually going to 4chan, and it'll be my last. Sweet Jesus...
Only saw one new piece of artwork before my eyes started to bleed.

Yea, I have no idea how to read the posts it's just gibberish to me.
I'd recommend not actually reading any of it. I did and now I feel like eating a freezer full of ice cream while I cry in a corner.
I think one of the Reddit posts has the images linked on Imgur.

I have to agree this is one time I would not be disappointed by evil twin storyline in fiction
OP
OP
At this point I don't think we will. No matter what happens someone is going to be disappointed and extremely vocal about said disappointment.
If she's redeemed the outcry of "Oh my god that whore/bitch/slut Sylvanas still sucks!!!" will be immeasurable so I think they're going to take the easy way out and just write her further into the corner to kill her off. Or make her immortal but trap her in the Waifu Blade for all eternity as a "be careful what you wish for" life lesson.
My hype for Blizzcon has dropped exponentially because I've come to realize that no matter what is announced a good portion of the fandom is going to shit all over it and jump to correct anyone who would have interest in it as being wrong or constantly pull the "well actually!!!" to express some nerd rage "I know more than you" card and idk - I just want to skip all that and just have new content. I'm going to watch the reveal but I can't get myself excited anymore at this point.
I hope no one else feels like this and I won't try to drag anyone down because this sucks. WoW is one of the few happy/joyful things in my life and I feel like that's been ripped away from me in some ways. I hope everyone else has an enjoyable Blizzcon reveal. Only a few hours remain.
The Blood Queen Lana'thel stage of the Shadowmourne quest is a *pain* to do; can in principle be done by two as long as they have a few rezzes to play with, but the (relatively!) new res-timer system still adds complexity. In practice easier with more, and she needs to live long enough to have the abilities happen; last time I went there to help out I killed her too early with reflected damage.
OP
OP
I believe I did that in Legion with a friend and "naked" so we could reduce any chance of extra damage and it worked quite well. But yes, 2 battle rez classes are extremely useful if you have access to it.
Yeah....I don't think there's any real way they can 'salvage' her character at this point - unless they do some crazy asspull like 'the tree and the night elves were necessary as soldiers in the shadow realm, AND I can bring them back to life', she'll at best end up like Illidan and be shunted off-screen after the next xpac is done.
But at the same time, she's still one of, if not the only huge 'pull' to the narrative after what seemingly happens in 8.3.....so can't say for sure.
(I think that at this point, Blizz has cannibalized the original plan for her after the 'outcry' from players, so if you take that into consideration, some of the story inconsistencies make it hard to ascertain for sure).
At this point, I'm more curious if she'll be pro- or against whatever Bolvar is involved in, and if she'll actually be featured in the main showing/trailer/what have you.
I'm honestly somewhat surprised they haven't copied what they did with BT in making ICC a timewalking raid, tbh.
To the transmogrification connoisseurs here, are Fangs of the Father transmoggable? Because I stopped doing dragon soul with an alter when I had almost 300 shards and never bothered finishing it.
Well they've only done 1 raid per xpac so far, and for wrath it was always going to be Ulduar due to how beloved it is.
The final stage is not, but you can transmog the epic level stuff that precedes it.
Thanks. I don't have people to run it with, so probably won't bother since Frostmourne isn't even moggable.
I didn't know Frostmourne wasn't moggable until I was like halfway through collecting Shards, lol. Wasn't too hard to find randos to do Lana'thel with using the group finder tho.

At 120, the only thing that will give you any significant trouble are Legion mythic raids.
Bosses in ICC should die in a couple melee swings.
At 120 you can easily solo anything from Warlords and down no matter the difficulty.
Mmochampion just shared this https://media.mmo-champion.com/images/news/2019/october/blinkMystery.jpg looks like it matches up with the Shadowlands t-shirt and Bolvar pic https://media.mmo-champion.com/images/news/2019/october/slleak01.jpg outside of the $30/$30 being $25/$30. So yeah if anyone had any doubt the next expansion is Shadowlands you may as well change your mind.
