Has the the champion grading scale from League of Legends being translated into WoW M+ every been a thought? You would get a flat rating for timing the dungeon, but also receive a bonus to the rating for utilizing your classes full tool kit. It may give people learning in lower keys a thought if they saw a scoresheet showing their damage, interrupts, personal defensives/saves etc with an actual letter grade, and can give an analysis on what they could do better next dungeon.
Long ago I upgraded fully my Ember Court and some days ago I decided to finish my Shadowlands meta achie. The only missing thing is the Be our guest. I checked the guide on wowhead and actually its pretty funny but somehow the npc doesnt show all four guests only three. Now I only need six more guests to invite but I want to do the additinal achievements also cause why not. I dont find any related quest, my Ember court is tier 5. Please help maybe i just missed something.
Greetings,
I am the Deathlord, Baraxius of the Ebon Blade. Recently in my travels of Azeroth I have noticed several other adventurers wearing the exact same armour as myself. This blatant copy of my appearance has not gone unnoticed. The worse offense is seeing other adventurers galavant around Azeroth while proclaiming themselves as the Deathlord themselves! Last I checked, I am the one and only Deathlord of the Ebon Blade so I am not sure why these copycats think they can go around Azeroth saying they are me! Do they not see how the other Death Knights of the Ebon Blade greet me as Deathlord every time I enter the Acherus necropolis!?
This has indeed gotten to be out of hand. Some have taken a copy of my trusted steed! To think, some adventurers have even taken my full name, Baraxius! The nerve of some adventurers....
. . .
Enjoy my transmog!
I want to start by saying that I absolutely love World of Warcraft. I have been playing it on and off since vanilla. I was thinking about the pending player housing being planned and I started thinking about other things that would be neat in game. Stuff that I know I would like but also stuff that might draw in other players who might not be into WoW now.
Crafting professions:
Wood Working - making furniture or home good and or parts and pieces that other professions need
Farming - Growing food or herbs or decorative plants. We already have a good model for how a personal farm could work with the MoP Tillers farming.
Others that I have not thought of yet...
All the existing main professions would be able to also make new supportive things. Leather workers could make leather straps used in wood working or Blacksmiths could make items like screws or bolts or metal fencing. Jewel crafters could make pains of glass or decorative bobbles. I'm sure some interesting items for each main crafting profession could have new stuff to make.
Anyway, just some thought. Maybe stupid, maybe not. but adding even just the farming side into the game would be one more reason that I would love to stay and play every day. I'm not an end game raider or M+ dungeons running. I level characters, run quests, collect mounts and pets and I know I am not alone, I think the majority of the WoW population is more casual than it ever used to be.
This is just a vent. I have no idea why they do this. Are they trolling? Do they just have bots that auto downvote everything?
They even do it for legitimate questions asking for help, even for questions that HAVE NOT been asked many times. On here, even if someone does post something that's been asked before, people are just so much more willing to help.
To be clear, I am not making this about myself. If this was just happening to me, I would just question myself on if I had just posted something stupid or heavily controversial, or whatever. The thing is, they do it to almost EVERY SINGLE post. Putting myself completely aside, that's what's getting on my nerves more than anything. It hurts me to see people asking for help getting put down.
I don't want to post anything on there due to how huge of a toxic cesspit it is. Undoubtedly the worst subreddit I have ever seen in my life and nothing else comes even remotely close. Where else is good to ask for any help with classic?

Hi! I'm part of a geeky fandom virtual running club and I hope to eventually host a WoW-thened 10 day challenge.
Each day, the team's miles would be spent facing off against a boss/big bad in the history of Azeroth.
I have two days already picked, Day 1 is Hogger (starting off easy and recognizable) and Day 8 is The Lich King (Day 8 is a separate challenge and we need all the motivation/nostalgia we can muster to keep moving).
How would you fill the rest of the Day spots? I'm thinking Deathwing definitely needs to be there. Help and thank you in advance!
I've read the brief explanation wowhead posted and I have no idea what they are saying at all.
Can someone refer me somewhere where I can read a detailed explanation? Or simply comment me what's going on. What the hell is a zeroth anyway?
Edit: Because my post wasn't very clear, I got the mount. I used the code. But how did the people figure out the code.
So bare with me, I am a returning wow player, left mid Cata, rejoined 2 months ago and having a blast. My absolute favourite is to farm mounts, idk why but it's fun. So now that the Felcycle is obtainable, I looked into how to get it and realised, that I have close to none of the required things I need besides maybe a pet and a mount here and there that fits.
So I figured maybe farm all of these, then realized I never did Pet battles so i have to catch up to these, never done Shadowlands, so I guess I have to do the campaign to get to Maldraxxus etc.
I read that U don't need to have the specific transmogs/toys etc. but just someone near U. Is that true? And if yes, is there anyway I could find someone to help me out?
Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask this question, I am not uptodate on community stuff
thx
Hello ! I have countless hours on WoW but never touched the battle pet system. I want to get the last patch secret mount tho; and there's a part where this is required.
What's the fastest way to complete this step ?
Thank you !!
Suddenly unable to link items in chat? is anyone else having this problem
Hi all, I heard the idea of adding charges to a keystone on the podcast the Bench the other day and really liked the concept. I was wondering if people here think the same. I think it almost eliminates all the annoying bits of keystone depletion while keeping some of the safeguards intact why the depletion system was introduced in the first place.
Imagine 3 charges on a keystone. This would create some good scenarios f.e.
Try a risky strategy once or twice and if that fails do a run the safer way (I think the high risk/high reward is more fun but almost never do it because I don't want to deplete a high key)
If it's a high key you can try the key one or two times and optimise your route/strategy instead of immediately failing.
I think people are less likely to be kicked after a pull goes wrong because the people from the group will still want to try and finish the key and/or not lose a charge.
The fact that it can still deplete might make it that people who are punching above their weight can't keep throwing themselves to a keystone over and over again
Ultimately, You could even do it so that everyone commits to the key and if you fail a key everyone in the group loses a charge (but not below 1 for example.
In this way, I think you get the best of both worlds. You are less punished by one small mistake that fails the key or annoying/griefing players will not ruin all your progress having to farm your key up again. And yet because it is not infinite it will still make people not want to just do whatever and kick someone from the run after 1 small missclick.
I was wondering if other people think the same or if there are different/better ideas to handle with the annoying thing of keystones depleting.
Hi i would like to know that around Christmas Blizzard will offer a discount on the War Within expansion
Let's say instead of syncing to the level of your party member, you sync to whatever level you choose? Just a slider from 1 to max, it should work, right?
Even if it had to be janky and force solo, with some fake invisible party member of your set level acting as the source of the level sync, or whatever. But I bet it could be done in an actual clean way.
They REALLY do not make this clear during character creation. I looked it up and understand "connected realms" but I checked my auction house and its missing like 4 of the basic items I wanted, so thats not worth the $70 I already paid, so, am I screwed? Anyone else been able to transfer for free? Again, the character only has around an hour play time on it.
New character, picked up enchanting. Went to DF however I can’t disenchant anything. Are you not able to level your professions in whatever content you’re doing? I have to go do it in classic?
Hello everyone, I'm in a bit of a dilemma and feeling a bit lost. I want to play either Paladin or Monk, as both are classes with a cool style and can cover all roles in case I feel like switching things up.
I don't really care about how well either class performs in the current meta.
Are there any Monk or Paladin players here who could share what they love about their class and maybe help me decide? I'd really appreciate your input!
Men Without Hats just popped into my work jam que and it reminded me once again that because I grew up with WoW and knew of the achievement first ANYTIME I hear the Safety Dance I immediately think of Heigan the Unclean lol
Holy Cow.
I ordered two items: A shirt and a pullover.
Shirt: A completely different shirt was sent.
Pullover: Correct pullover but wrong size was sent.
I ask them to initiate the return process. Their response:
--------------------------------
Dear Customer, Thank you for contacting the support of Blizzard To start the return process, we need photos of the front and back of the product to be returned, and an additional photo of the packing slip/receipt sheet that came with your package.
As a last step, we need you to send the following information for the collection of your products: Order tracking number: Order number: Name:
Address (Street – Number – Flat - Etc): Country: City: Province: Postal Code: Phone number E-mail: Return reason: SKU and quantity of products: SKU __________UNT___________
--------------------------------
You you ******* kidding me??? Are we living in 1950??? Just lookup my data in your ******* database like every sane company on this planet does and send me a stupid return label. Its not that hard.
I literally need to make 69 photos and send them all the information THEY ALREADY HAVE.
Ah and btw, of course they messed up to send 2 correct items but yeah whatever that can happen. What happens after that is the real disgrace.
End of rant.
Why is everyone so upset about the idea of the Artifact weapons from Legion Mage Tower making a return? Back then, the skins were actually much easier to earn than they would be now, since gear scaled, and by the end of the season, players had much stronger gear than what the content was designed for. So why are people so strongly against them coming back?
Hello,
please look at the pictures
im at Picture 1 and need to get to Picture 2 but idk how :( been looking for like 2-3hrs for a way.
A small rant:
I (Ele 630 Shaman) got blamed because i „didn‘t kick enough and Tank died only because of that“ (Tank had iLvl 625 for +12 Dawn) while in reality, i kicked when cd was ready and i kicked the important casts and just because some people think only plain stats are the truth, let me tell you something:
Just because your Details tells you that i kicked only 12 times in 10 Minutes, doesn‘t mean that i really was kicking it only 12 times, i kicked alot more, but because of someone kicking 0.1 sec before me it obviously didn‘t count. I also had stuns (totem, thunderstorm) and always used it to interrupt when it was necessary. All those interrupts are NOT counting in Details so be aware of that.
I wasn‘t even aware that they blamed me at first because i had no situation like that before, my kicks were fine in different runs and no one got to blame me because of that.
Just some last words: i got no heal when the first miniboss gave me a dot and died immediately, does that mean i didnt kick enough? Lmao
As stated in the title I am an old WoW player that just returned. Last time I played was back during TBC and I have not touched WoW since.
Since there is a lot going on with people playing classic hc I felt like giving it a go, but after reaching level 20 I could not take it anymore, classic is too slow for me.
So yesterday I got myself the latest expansion and with it a level 70 boost.
Made myself a Tauren Frost Mage and boosted it to 70 and ran a bit of the questline to get myself comfortable with the game again and now I am sitting at level 76 and just did my first time walking dungeon.
Where should I go from here?
Should I keep doing time walking until I hit 80? What is the most efficient way to grind for gear to be able to take part in proper raids and maybe later on get into pushing keys?
I did play a fair bunch of WoW back in the day but everything seemed so much simpler in TBC, there is so much more to keep track of it seems.
Also I should note that I do not mind putting a lot of time and effort into grinding gear, and during xmas I will hopefully be able to play a lot.
Any help or tips is appreciated!
I am hunting mahamba (water spirit) and I can't see him. Is there any particular quest in order to trigger his appearance?
