    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Is it discrimination if I say I puked in my mouth reading that?

    If you want artificial difficulty, this is a "rule" I've used since childhood for DQ games. It's not a huge increase, but it matters for boss fights and post-game bosses! - Every character must be alive at the end of the battle. (I wanted every character to get the full amount of exp they...

    No, actually. At first I thought I was going to be, but I guess going OCD on treasure chests and the WQ rewards have been more than enough to stay solvent as it were. (As of this writing I have 4102.)

    I don't know about anyone else, but Emmara and Thought Erasure should see plenty of play.

    Ashes of Creation

    Not a very long panel at PAX Prime, but they did announce that they were going to basically put all the people registered at their site in Alpha after a certain point (I'd have to rewatch it for the rough timeline, but at least > 1month from now).

    I don't even know where to start with how impressed I was by that gameplay reveal video. Dayum. I also wonder how our "professional victims" behave towards trying to land roles in a theater production or equivalent. You're assuming the role of another person, not projecting yourself into it.

    They still have missions showing up for those 250/750/Tribute boxes, or are you talking about other ones? (I didn't start on Legion content until the BFA prepatch when I got it "for free" so...)

    Oh sure, reduce Midnight Salmon but not reduce or remove crystals from the Pact of ___ Ring enchants, which only offer +10 over the normal enchant.

    Deep Sea Satin is a highly demanded material. It's the one thing I constantly need -- I have a LOT of embroidered and tidespray from the scrapper -- and I think it's all because of the Deep Sea Bags requiring 25 minimum (at rank 3). To put it a different way, I get roughly twice as much...

    Update: This appears to be working as of hotfixes done today in the afternoon, and it seems to be targeting multiple enemies for that matter.

    Yes, but the rewards are generally cosmetic. There are a couple of exceptions (the Namazu dailies offer Stormsap for crafters), but in general the reputation rewards are glamour/transmog. gear, minions/battle pets, and mounts.

    Spoiler alert: It's AIDS to level after 75. Your only orange recipes are the +37 ring enchants which require 8 Veiled Crystals (rank 2 is having 100 skill) and the follower equipment. Yellow recipes are the weapon enchants, each of which take 1 Veiled Crystal. Green recipes are the i225 wand...

    Fuck that, this boy needs crystals for weapon enchants! Still don't get why the good ring enchants require 8 at rank 1. Enchanting has this absurd, almost catch-22 going on to get it past 75, and it's all because of crystals. (If I really want Expulsom, I just ask my Tailoring stash to get to...

    Can finally respond to this because I finally got an item that has this trait. It's technically procing, but the "Wandering Soul" it spawns isn't doing a thing. It just sits there rather than firing off the bolt at enemies like it's supposed to be doing every 2s.

    I had a WANTED 5 man get reset in Vol'dun at some point in the past 7 days (I'm Horde), so I was wondering about that. Not going to complain about a bonus 250 rep though! EDIT - Check your rep rewards from your Mission tables. I have a rare mission "Deeps Scouting" that's giving 425 base...

    @Merrith I just had a thought hit me about your Tortollan rep based on 8/20's hotfix notes: I'm wondering if that's the issue.

    I got Incessantly Ticking Clock from a WQ once or twice, but other than that its largely been Versatility gear that spawns, which I abso-the-fuck-lutely do not want.

    I gave myself a deadline, and the majority of it has to do with the fact that Dragon Quest XI releases the day Uldir opens, and that game is going to consume me utterly for about 120 hours.

    Out of curiosity, what's everyone's Heart of Azeroth levels at? Just hit 18 and the grind to get higher is starting to trigger me because of the Uldir level reqs for unlocking Azerite gear there.

    This is also happening with other procs as well. Lady Waycrest's Music Box is just one example I myself have seen. Worse, it will target something that isn't in combat with anyone. If it's hostile, it can target it and hit it and create all sorts of fun. Someone clearly didn't set the "do...

    So I've gone through and unlocked and upgraded all the warfront outposts (that I know of have upgrades). Aside from the Scrapper in Tiragarde -- which is in a really out of the way node, btw -- and the super-fast Giant vehicle for transportation in Stormsong, I'm not impressed. The only ones I...

    I think one of the biggest issues is I don't have all the gear with the proper stats, but I'm getting closer. I'm kind of Frankenstein's ilvl monster right now, with the secondaries kind of split three ways.

    There are multiple hubs for the Tortollans off the beaten path, yes. I want to say some of the WQ's take you near those hubs but honestly after a week I just don't remember them all. I need to do more expeditions; I've only done enough for the quota thus far and got one +250 Champions rep to...

    I was wondering about the mission table rep, but lucksacking on your bonuses makes a few things make more sense. Tortollan: Yes, there are off-to-the-side quest spots that aren't advertised that have 2-4 quests each. One example is in Drustvar near Whitegrove Chapel and the flight nodes on the...

    @Voldeth @Merrith Pretty dumb question, but did you two hit 120 on day one? Trying to figure out how in the fuck you have several thousand more rep for Champions and 7th/Honorbound than I do, but I have several thousand more in other reps, like Tortollan. (My Contract has been with Champions...

    Yeah, I've been forced to admit to myself I really was clueless on how things worked and optimal button pushing and conditions. Four years as a healer in FF14 have really changed how I look at things. My major issue is all this talk of MUST BE 7K+ IN MYTHIC-0 really. I've been trying to...

    It is possible, but there's an issue with the quests if you change, including can't finish it (if changing from Pa'ku to Gonk) plus some phasing issues with world quests if it's in your log. I started with Pa'ku and switched it to Gonk (because achievements) but the quest won't complete because...

    Affliction is very shard dependant or else I have asstacular luck on Agony proc'ing shards for me. I do like how Haunt plays out for Affliction though. Fire and forget until it recharges whereas you have to babysit Shadow Embrace. I absolutely despise the cooldown time on Darkglare (the trait...

    It's a real pain on instance trash though, I discovered. If I want to actually land anything in an instance reliably, it's basically Bilescourge Bombers and/or Felstorm. (I'd use Dreadlash as my AE talent if it didn't flat out fail to do damage a portion of the time.) Something that doesn't...

    It's by no means the best trait for Demonology, but I'll be damned if I don't love Forbidden Knowledge (Call Dreadstalkers has a chance to make your next non-instant Demonbolt hit VERY HARD). The fact that the traits can stack makes for some very big numbers. 28k crits please me.
