    While I do like them, they were not super interesting as enemies during ARR. They were kinda there, and they were "evil", and that was about it. They were very one dimensional which is why I think the HW story villains were a lot more interesting. Obviously they got fleshed out over time, both...

    Dungeons were fine really, only a few were "hard" and even then weren't really that challenging, just not as easy as some of the post ARR dungeons(but even then there were some harder ones too). Raid is where they fucked up, and especially the first tier, which was very poorly tuned and was...

    Well yeah it has fillers still as I said. But the story is good, at least imo. Going into spoilers but not further than where you are: Ultimately, it's still going to be a matter of taste. Some people watch masterpiece movies and don't like them. And while yes you can say "this is a great...

    So finally got an answer from a GM for the lost Paladin(only took 7days). Turns out I transferred it to another account back in 2008, which is why it wasn't there. They said they can merge accounts but that doesn't merge the characters together, just put both accounts under the same Bnet account...

    It's mostly the story. Obviously that's gonna be subjective but a lot of people just liked the HW story a lot more, it has nice characters and has a good pacing with the new threats and how it resolves things. It isn't really so much about the fillers, although that helps, and just more that the...

    Btw @Malkav I just noticed this yesterday but flying in BFA involves doing 100 unique world quests. Not just 100WQs, they have to be 100 different ones. I suggest getting Re-quest which is an addon that tracks shit you have completed, it won't retroactively check the quest though cause it's not...

    Depends on what level you are, WHM healing gets easier as you level up and get more and more free oGCD heals you can weave or just panic mash. In ARR they get virtually no emergency other than swiftcast and bene, in HW they start getting some and in SB they get half a dozen of shit you can throw...

    It's technically the same value, it basically buys poetic gear, previous expansion stuff, and all the gear is the same amount of poetics, so like a 70 chest is the same amount of poetics as a 60chest, so kinda doesn't really matter, just buys whatever you feel like, they have virtually no...

    Their WQs seem to give more than others though, generally get 300 for them. And at least for the flying shit, you only need Revered, not full Exalted, only need Exalted for the ones that unlock races(so Zandalari and Voldunai which are both pretty easy to get). I'm only honored with them but...

    They have questlines here and there but not a full zone dedicated to them so it's probably more annoying to track down yeah. What I just did is switch up my contract to them since it makes more sense. You can buy contracts at the AH, they give you a 7days buff that gives you 20rep(10base but...

    Yeah The Balance has a discord, they have a website too but it's not always updated. Generally it's like you said, speed until whatever is needed, then crit or dh, depending on the class. The difference is small enough that slotting anything works fine though, at least for standard gear(for...

    You get a bunch doing the war campaign itself which you need to do at up to a point but yeah you get a ton of Honorbound rep just doing random shit. The one you probably want to unlock early is Mechagon, there's a daily WQ there that gives a whooping 1700rep, so you can get that out of the way...

    Well I don't have flying and it's been going fine other than one quest that took me a bit of running around to figure I had to go all the way around and use one of the stupid elevators. Might make a drug addict night elf later on. That and a furry midget they look surprisingly nice. So far I'm...

    Lochs one is really the exception and is the "finale" of the aether currents for that expansion so it's not even that bad imo and gets you to visit an area that's otherwise largely ignored even by sidequests. The HW ones are definitely just press the button every now and then and you basically...

    Been doing some Legion shit to get rep for the other allied races and Suramar is really cool, love how much detail they put in the city. There's A LOT of quests though, and so far they give shit rep but from what I understand the 2nd batch of it(from the later patches) give a lot of rep so eh.

    Supposedly AAP bugs out pretty hard when you hit draenor due to Blizzard changing the garrison map coords or some stupid shit. Question on gear, I see a lot of pieces have intellect as a hidden stat and shit, does that mean that gear for the most part works regardless of spec? Like if I switch...

    But haven't they been saying there's a greenskin rework coming for like 6months? It was delayed last patch but I've been hearing about it for a while.. Like the other 3 TW1 factions which got reworks before.

    Well I am/was leveling a new char and it's super fast atm yeah. I didn't do anything fancy and don't have full heirloom(but almost enough to the cap, I think 5 or 10% off), and basically I did 20-60 off Northern barrens, Ashenvale and Stonetalon(not that these areas are better than others, just...

    If you power through it though it's not THAT bad I thought, I redid it on an alt and yeah a lot of it drags on but if you just go on autopilot for a while it's not so bad and around 2.4 it stops being completely shit, there's still too many quests but the story starts getting seriously...

    Yeah I just drop anything that looks nice in mine and it's slowly filling up but still fine, think I'm at like 250ish items. Mostly bodies. Some people go crazy with the jewelery though, I only have one of each and that's the one that hides the appearances, since I don't care for them, so that...

    It's not nearly as easy to use as wow, but yeah. It's called Glamours in the game, if you google it you'll find stuff explaining it, but basically there's 2 systems, the old system which simply lets you put the appearance of one item onto another, one by one, and the new system which uses the...

    Well yeah I ran one warfront and got 15 and then I got like some from something else I forgot what, but it's once a week or do you get the medals every run? Anyway it's not even the heirlooms, that shit's too expensive for me to upgrade too much, it's just there's the 100% bonus xp event thing...

    Is that actually useful? Seems kinda meh, only 10% xp, and cost 5 of those token shit I don't have many of and don't really want to farm more instead of playing my monk for now. Doesn't the current 100% xp boost work in BFA, doubt I'd really need another 10%, plus I'm kinda looking into doing...

    Oh there's an item to remove it? Man there's so much non obvious shit nowadays. Is there any other obvious qol item I should know about? I think they have mount water floating boots too now for waterwalking? I should probably get this shit. Any slowfall item that's easy to use, I've already died...

    You don't need the email to benefit, they're just promotions to tell people who don't pay attention to generic news sites because they stopped playing. They run these like every other patch(so around every 6months or so, might be more often sometimes not sure), it's a nice way to catch up on the...

    Man been only playing again for 2 days and I already hate the daze mechanic again. After years of casualification you'd think this shit would have been removed by now. Leveling been going well, the double xp buff makes that shit stupid fast. Hit 45 doing northern barrens only lol. Grabbed a...

    Well she came out saying the usual ToS shit but they're not really enforcing that anyway, then she edited/explained that really the reason is the spam shit. Something about a few users doing millions of queries in a single day. I wouldn't worry too much about it, there's a new version that caps...

    It simply reactivates your account, doesn't give you any new content you didn't own, and since it's not like wow where you get all the expansions besides the last but the opposite, where you only have the vanilla game but buying the last expansion gives you all expansions, you wouldn't have any...

    Alright done with Maghar unlock, was really quick with the double rep buff, basically got it doing the main quest stuff, I did a bunch of world quests on the way but it was unnecessary, the 8.1 shit gives 4k rep per big turn in so it went really fast once I got to that. Didn't expect the fucking...

    Na this kind of shit is totally confusing, it's honestly a mystery why they didn't remove the gloves when they launched HW, guess they were too busy, it's just pointless and annoying you have to make special sets and shit when doing these quests. /isearch is great for finding stuff especially...

    Says the Ixali vendor sells them, you checked the right one? It's a normal vendor for gold not the one that trades tokens. If it doesn't sell them it'd mean you haven't done the starting quest. It's in New Gridania, Bad Bladder, check Scarlet, she might have more than one quest so it won't show...

    They only drop from 38+ monsters, so the dungeons that open up after the Sanctuary of Mana part. You can get a bunch in chests in these dungeons by just running through, 6 of them and supposedly they will always yield one of each job, but I've read conflicting reports.

    Twisting Nether EU, that's where my chars were. I figure while I could make my new chars somewhere else, having a bunch of 80s would let me save time if I ever want to level other classes to 120. Have a DK, Druid, Warrior and Hunter already, although most of them I'd probably race change if I...

    Yeah but there's no reason to think it was hacked, yeah I don't know where my paladin is but that's probably because I don't remember what I did 12years ago, other than that everything looks untouched with a bunch of character that are higher lvl than the paladin was and all gold left. Never got...

    Na it is named Mulepyros(then a bunch of characters because the name was reclaimed like all my chars). I assume I had an actual character on that server that I server transferred off, but forgot the gold on the mule. Just resubbed so I can check my high lvl and my DK still has 5k gold which...
