I am on the US realm "Magtheridon." I just found out its a low population, i found a website called wowrealmpopulation.com and it says that overall population with connected realms is 1532 active players. I already have 4 characters on this realm. Is it bad to play in such a low population server and should i fork out the money and transfer my characters to a more populated realm. I don't exactly know if theirs any pros for a low population realm, but I'd assume the cons outweigh the pros. I'm just worried i made a stupid mistake.
I have not really played the toon up till this point and it seems like there is a lot I need to learn to be competent at the class. How can I make it easier on myself learning to play the class effectively? I've been intimidated by the potential complexity of the class but it looks very enjoyable to play.
I have been playing retail off and on since SL, I played vanilla on release. I have tried classic a little in the past but did not get far because of the time to level and feeling behind. Kind of feels like I would already be behind in the new classic and a lot of the stuff I enjoy like collecting isn't there. But what is it like, would I feel like 20 years ago raiding MC and Onyxia or nah.
I know there's a seperate Elite PVP Vendor in Legion and Dragon Flight but I can't seem to find in BFA Ally? Does anyone know?
Hey all. I’m relatively new to the game. I leveled my first character (BDK) to 80 a couple weeks ago, and have farming the various weeklies and delves/dungeons on tier 8 and heroic respectively.
I’m a bit lost though. I am gaining all types of currencies and am not totally sure what to do with them. My ilvl is currently 585 and I’m feeling pretty indestructible in a lot of the content I’m doing (tier 8 solo delves are no joke though)
So I suppose my question is this: how do I push my character higher? I’m doing my bountiful keys and the loot is pretty good, but it’s so random I can’t rely on upgrading the gear that needs it. Dungeons on heroic feel too easy and the gear output seems even more sparse.
So I ask you, veteran adventurers of Azerot, how do I push to the next level?
The question requires me to get friendly reputation with broken isle ppl. Everything was great til I got to suramar, there's no quest showing in my map in Suramar and therefore can't get reputation. Pls send help 😢
I have a few questions about BIS gear. I just gotten the leg plates of broken trust from the vault which is BIS, however am I better off continuing to use my entombed seraphs greaves for the set bonus? According to archon most people are using the entombed seraphs set and not the leg plates of broken trust but I’m just confused as to why it’s BIS if it’s not actually the best? On top of this, I know there is BIS for mythics and BIS for raids. Am I better off keeping a set of gear for mythics AND a set of gear for raids? Is that just a waste of time and crests? I’ll need to farm double the amount of gilded crests if I do that don’t I? At the moment I have a bit of both mythic BIS and raid BIS going on. I spend significantly more time in mythics than I do in raids so maybe I should just go with the bis for mythics? But will that drastically affect my raids in any way? Should i just follow the more popular gear listed on archon? I’ve never been into mythics or raids before so I have never geared up “properly” so just a bit lost on what the best way to go is? Hopefully that all makes sense
Is there a weekly time-walking raid quest during the "classic" time-walking week? and if so, where do I find it?
Found TBC in shatt, and WotLK in Dalaran, but not sure about Classic.
Just started playing about a week ago and have noticed that basically no one will respond to any chat I say. I will be right next to them and say hi or mention something and they just ignore you and run / fly away. What gives? I'm using /s they should see my messages, is everyone just ignoring me?
Someone said I could transmute Mycobloom for stormdust I want to try and make a dedicated transmuter that could get me r2/r3 storm dust. I don't understand how to build the brances don't make a whole lot of sense to me and I am not sure how to optimize them for transmuting mycobloom
I thought mythic + but thats already champion... It like skips veteran. I need a transmog piece from LFR that isnt in the game so only other way is to find a Veteran Cloth Helmet and transfer it over in the caralyst. I know the superbloom gives a random veteran piece but thats once a week... But I really need to figure out how to get a veteran cloth helmet.
So I just bought it but it’s not popping up in my mounts for some reason. Anyone got any reason why you think? Also if it has to do with flight style not sure how to change that lol.
Is it possible to still get perky? Am I at a loss?
coming from League of Legends, people used to refer to platinum as the elo hell, and after chatting with some guildies they refer to 2.5 to 2.6 k raiderIO as the elo hell of world of warcraft, as most of the people are suffering from the Dunning-Kruger effect, is that an accepted thing in the wow community as well?
I am attempting to level Alchemy for the first time ever on horde. I'm following the Wowhead Cataclysm 1-525 guide for alchemy and it says to craft 60 minor healing potions which each take 1 Peacebloom and 1 Silverleaf.
When I look at the Wowhead Cataclysm wiki pages for Peacebloom and Silverleaf, it says that both are sold by Selina Weston in Brill and by Melaris in Silvermoon City. I went to both of these vendors, as well as another herbalism vendor in Orgrimmar, and no one has these ingredients.
Am I going to have to go pick 60 of each of these flowers just to get to alchemy 60? I can buy them on the auction house too but they are really expensive, about 5 silver each and I only have 5 gold on my guy total so that's slightly more money than I even have. My guy is level 24 btw which is why I'm pretty poor.
So why are the vendors not selling these ingredients I need?
First time player, I have reached 70 on a monk (dps) and started a second character (healer) that I want to get to 70 and then I will get the newest expansion. I am in the process of unlocking the different races and soloing some old raids. What else should I be doing? I have not looking into fishing/cooking or any professions, is there anything I need to know with them? Are there must had add-ons to the game, do they matter? Am I missing out on anything by not being in a guild?
I am sure I will get to things but what to people recommend doing as there is so much to do for a first time player?
I started playing cataclysm with some friends and I'm just wondering because I'm not seeing that many people as I was expecting, even in Stormwind there aren't many people around. Is it because no one is new to the expansion or the game has some type of channels. I remember back in the day Goldshire full with people, and I saw 0
Can't find anything in google about this, just curious really
playing on Firemaw
So I started wow for the first time today, and saw that TWW came with a level 70 boost, which i popped. Now it threw me into a big city with a full skillbar and I have no idea how to progress from here. Can I just follow the campaign until 80 from here while I slowly learn my abilities or is there a better way to level?
Hi all,
I recently hit my m+ season goal of 2k rating on my bear druid and decided it was time to roll an alt to do the same with. Initially I rolled a BDK tank but after starting the gearing grind I find myself losing motivation to play a second tank.
I am considering dusting off a shadow priest which I used a boost on in DF but never really played much, with the goal of pushing my own key and potentially some raids.
Would love any spriest players to chime in and let me know likes/dislikes about the class this season, challenges, advice, etc.
the main point of rolling a ranged DPS is because it is as opposite as I could think to get from a tank. So, any recommendations on another RDPS class would also be welcome!
M+ is refusing to drop anything but bad trinkets on my mage and now I have like 4-5 trinkets in the bag no one else in my group wanted. Is it normal that none of those hero trinkets beat this champion one?
Don't get me wrong tho, I love those little wax fucks.
Edit: Ty guys.
im new to the whole crafting system.
after i get all the required materials, how do i know what the going rate or commission to input?
is there a common standard to go by?
Pretty new to playing with this spec on my frost mage. When I practice on target dummies it seems like splinters go everywhere randomly. Is there a real danger to pulling mobs or bosses unintentionally? Would hate to screw things up at the wrong time! But it looks like fun and my damage is much higher. Any tips or advice appreciated! Also any suggestions on videos or guides?
I am playing retail for the first time, and want the lil donkey mount. I am Horde and just flew into Arathi Highlands and there is no mine where there should be a mine. I am so confused. Any suggestions?
Hello,
https://snipboard.io/Im8ENl.jpg
I cannot sell those items in the screenshot. They are stuck in my bag and occupy valuable slots. How do I get rid of them?
For example the 2nd item from above is a quest item "Blue's Request". Right-clicking it, it says "You have completed that quest."
Alternatively, is there a storage place I can store this stuff? Is that storage place limited also in space?
Hey guys i was watching a video a while ago and it seemed like this tank had an addon (maybe a weak aura) that showed which mobs were aggroed onto you by the color of their name plate. Can anyone help me find it?
I was hoping to run some M0 dungeons and raids for gear but have not received a single piece of gear. Mostly only a few gold. Will we need to wait for the next expansoin/pre-patch for them to set up legacy loot rules for DF content?
As the title says my friend can not change realm list.
He started to play yesterday but did not ask me about realm. He is now at Mirage Raceway and I am at Golemagg. So he paid for realm change but it doesnt work. He doesnt have anything on auction, mail, etc. But still when he tries to transfer there is no option to wich server or when he types it is still grey and he can not proceed. Any help is welcomed. Thanks.
I've been doing 2's and 3's and I never use ring of peace so I'm wondering what's a good way to learn how to use it whenever I need some time to heal up or get heals?
I've got a warlock alt and am having a hard time figuring out via Wowhead how to do this questline to unlock the red scythe from the mage tower. I'm in Legion Dalaran and Archmade Karian doesn't have any quests. Is there a prerequisite quest I need to do first or do I need to unlock the Warlock class hall and do quests there? Thanks everyone.
Hello! I was just wondering if anyone has had experience with the party sync feature? My friend and I had done the “a world awoken” achievement a few months back together. After doing a lot of TWW we’re wanting to go back to DF to just do some questing because it’s our favorite zone. Thing is though she wants to use the character that did everything with DF and I will be using a new one that hasn’t touched DF. My question is will party sync allow her to do all the questing without prerequisites or will there be issues?
